*Indicative List

PLUG-IN

The purpose of PLUG-IN is to investigate, design, develop and pilot operate an integrated, scalable platform in order to publish, recover, compose, orchestrate and provide electronic services of added value to a company based on modern technologies and standards. PLUG-IN combines the disciplines of Software as a Service (Software-as-a-Service) and Synthesis Services (Enterprise Mashups, Service Composition) which are placed under «umbrella» of Internet Services (Internet of Services), and Operational Interoperability and Integration (Enterprise Interoperability, Enterprise Application integration).

CAP

The main objective of the project “CAP” is the development of a dynamic web platform that offers out-of-the-box facilities for the design, administration and provision of services relevant to the airport community, utilized by companies at the airport for its passengers. The project aims to provide personalization capabilities for the travelers and to facilitate the availability and quality of services offered by the airport and enterprises operating in the airport.

SELIDA

The scope of the project is the development of a complete and innovative system for managing printed material, based on the RFID technology (Radio Frequency Identification – RFID). RFID technology in this project cooperates in an efficient way with Back Office systems and web services (Object Naming Service – ONS) for the diffusion of the information. The pilot project will be implemented on the «Library & Information Center – University of Patras» capturing all the knowledge resulting from the individual actions of the project.

EERNV

The overall aim of this research project is to measure the energy efficiency of transport networks in order to provide a solid framework for assessing roads, routes and vehicles and, in addition, to introduce energy-driven pricing mechanisms and energy-aware decision support. Our research effort covers a major gap in existing literature by assembling an interdisciplinary team of researchers, spanning economics, electrical engineering, transportation science and operations research. This broad spectrum of disciplines is imposed by both the inherent complexity of the research topic and its anticipated scientific and practical impact.

From Graph Theory to Matroids

This project lies in the intersection of two of the most active and rich in deep problems areas in Discrete Mathematics, namely Graph Theory and Matroids. There are four main axes of proposed research, as reflected by the four research teams in this project, which range from the theoretical to the algorithmic.

Algorithmic and structural aspects of stable matching problems

 

Slovak-Greece Research

The aim of this project is to study various variants of matching problems from their computational as well as structural perspective. The basic matching model consists of a finite set of participants who wish to collaborate in some sense, each having different criteria of desirability. Such models are intensively studied in various branches of economics, like computational social choice, auction theory, general equilibrium theory, game theory etc. Since the variability of the real systems is very rich, new modifications of existing models emerge, bringing forward new tasks for researchers.

Simulating and Evaluating the Deployment of RFID in Supply Chain Operation

 

GSRI International Collaboration

The objective of effective supply chain management is the coordination of information, materials and financial flows between organizations. RFID is an emerging technology that can further contribute to supply chain optimization. RFID enables accurate real time product location information provision in high volumes and at very low (or even zero) labor costs. RFID technology is believed to initially substitute barcode for product identification. Later on, when the adoption level becomes mature enough, RFID will be used for optimizing many internal and inter-company processes. In this project the aim is to study the impact of RFID technology and real-time data in effective supply chain decision making.
