DICS -
Dependable Information and Communication Systems
Without reliable information and communication systems, the information society of the 21st century would cease to function. In

order to contribute to establishing stable information and communi-cation systems, in 2002 the Hasler Foundation set up the DICS support programme. The results of the programme, which came to an end in 2006, were published by Springer.

 

 

MMI BuchMMI - Man-Machine Interaction

While the technical capability of information systems is constantly increasing and the areas of application are expanding, their accessibility to users often lags behind. That is why the MMI programme, which ran from 2004 to 2008, concentrated on designing new, user-friendly interfaces between man and machine. This support programme was only available to partnership projects involving universities of applied sciences and academic universities, with the universities of applied sciences playing the leading role.
