Development Projects

1 Jan 2004– 31 Dec 2008

The EGEE project brings together experts from over 27 countries with the common aim of building on recent advances in Grid technology and developing a service Grid infrastructure which is available to scientists 24 hours-a-day.

The project aims to provide researchers in academia and industry with access to major computing resources, independent of their geographic location. The EGEE project will also focus on attracting a wide range of new users to the Grid.

The project will primarily concentrate on three core areas:

1 Jan – 31 Dec

The eLearning project of NIIF ( National Information Infrastructure Development Program ) was initiated with the objective of promoting the wide scale utilisation of eLearning technologies in the education institutions of NIIF using the excellent network infrastructure of NIIF.

1 Jan 2004– 31 Dec 2008

The gradual deployment of broadband networks throughout the research community and the fact that network capacity grows with much greater rate than CPU power and storage capacity (Moore's Law vs. storage improvements vs. optical improvements) have led to the creation of a distributing environment for sharing resources known as the Grid paradigm. This integrated networking & middleware environment is also called eInfrastructure.

The first Hungarian colour film, the "Lúdas Matyi"or Mattie, the Goose-Boy was produced by outstanding Hungarian artists in 1949. As there were not enough copies the film became worn out and already in 1961 it had to be restored for continnous showing in cinemas. More than 5 million people saw the film, which made it one of the 10 most popular films. As the original copies of the film became phisically useless and they lost most of their colours now it was the last minute to begin a new, complete restoration.

1. The goal of the project and the use of the results after finishing the project

The goal of the project is to develop an online plagiarism-search portal that helps both digital libraries to protect their documents, and teachers, professors to find copied work or publications. The portal would also give information about the Hungarian legal issues corresponding to this special field, and would include a discussion forum as well.

1 Feb 2003– 31 Mar 2004

The objective of the project Glocalisation is to support one of the promising segments of the Hungarian content industry, the production and "glocalisation" of multimedia-based computer training materials. Glocalisation is a nickname for localising foreign courseware and globalising that is adapting to foreign language environment Hungarian language courseware. In the interest of realizing this objective we developed a SCORM compatible glocalisation system in the framework of the project. The system was tested through a pilot training program.

HEKTÁR: Applying open digital library recommandations to Hungarian electronic libraries.

1 Jul 2002– 31 Dec 2005

The project codenamed Basic Unmanned Station Manager is based on a sensor network consisting of industrial PC-based monitoring hardware boxes that collect basic sensor information such as the temperature, the status of electrical contacts, smoke detectors and door sensors while managing the magnet lock and numeric keypad of the surveyed site. The the sensor network is managed by a central network monitoring node with a graphical user interface.

The project explores the possibilities and examines the steps that are necessary to be taken for the introduction and establishment of e-administration and dissemination of e-democracy in a wider area. Naturally, the range of tasks are multidisciplinary and successfully completing the project requires cooperation among representatives and experts in administration, jurisdiction, finance, computer sciences and sociology.

The project aims to make advance in the following areas:
