Dear colleagues,
Rockit (http://citia.lt-innovate.eu/) has been founded.
Last year, we have collected input from some experts in the area which has been condensed into a draft roadmap. You can get an overview from the white paper. For the scientific side, you can download a screen shots of the road map from here.
At this year's Interspeech, we plan to refine the roadmap. To this end, we will hold a roadmapping workshop on Sunday September 6th from 14:00 to 17:00 in Dresden. The plan is to introduce you to the present version of the roadmap. We will be discussing in more details the links between commerce/social goods and the science so that we can make a better, more coherent case for future funding. To participate, you should be willing to read the products/services part of the roadmap, look at the science plan in one field, and critique it. For planning purposes a quick reply to rockit_expert@lsv.uni-saarland.de would be appreciated.
Hope to see you in Dresden
Steve Renals and Dietrich Klakow
