About this project
This project is finished. In the years 2002 to 2005 about 7600
participants from all European countries and many countries outside
Europe participated in about 300 actions and events: courses,
tutorials, seminars, summer schools, series of lectures etc. The main
topic was microelectronic and microsystem design, systems on chip etc.
Numerous actions were also addressed to young people from primary and
secondary schools. These actions aimed at raising interest not only to
electronics and information technologies, but to science and technology
in general.
REASON is finished,
but...
If you are looking for educational actions in the area of
microelectronics, visit IDESA project pages. IDESA is a training
action aimed at spreading knowledge and skills in deep submicron VLSI
design by means of a series of intensive
hands-on courses given
at many places in Europe. A collection of advanced tutorials (live
recording with slides) is also available on the IDESA Web pages. IDESA
will be finished in 2012. Another training action that started in 2010
is EURO-DOTS: a
virtual
platform supporting doctoral schools in Europe by means of
advanced doctoral-level intensive courses.The EURO-DOTS project
now invites PhD students to attend
courses that have already been announced (grants are available!)
and invites European universities to
propose their PhD-level courses for consideration as EURO-DOTS
endorsed courses.
The project is over, but this Web site will not be closed. You will be
able to find here some of the outcomes of the project: lecture notes,
tutorial handouts etc. Feel free to download
them and use in your
training activities, but please do not forget to mention the authors
and support of this project.

The project consortium included 22
partners: 16 from EU
member
states (including 11 partners from new member states in Central
Europe),
2 from EU candidate countries and 4 from the former Soviet Union.
Many actions were
prepared by joint teams of co-operating researchers and academic
teachers from EU partner institutions and from Central/Eastern
Europe or from several CEE institutions. Prominent scientists
from institutions not participating in this project were involved
as well. This allowed to exploit knowledge and competencies of
the partners from all parts of Europe and to share their experiences.
The project was coordinated by Warsaw University of Technology,
Warsaw, Poland.
