The Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology
(Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Technologie - BMWi for
short) in Germany has initiated an ideas' competition for new
talents in connection with the internet reasearch project
THESEUS. The competition with the title "THESEUS TALENTE 2008"
(THESEUS talents) is to give talented individuals the
opportunity to have a part in shaping the internet of the
research. The competition ensures that creations from new
scientists, students, pupils, programmers and "inventors"
outside the consortium can be included in THESEUS.
Around 30 subjects covering the wide range of the research
program are addressed by the BMWi for this competition: from
specific software solutions for analysis of image quality and
the management of ontologies to the question how Web 2.0
communities can be connected by means of semantic search
technologies. What scenarios are to be developed for future
use of the business web in particular plays an important role.
Winners will receive attractive prizes of up to 10,000 Euros
and the opportunity to implement their ideas in companies and
research institutions of the THESEUS consortium and to take
part in shaping the internet of the future. Entry deadline:
April 14, 2007.
