4 Digital Agenda User centric focus and efficient public administation Innovation and economic growth Digital inclusion

5 The Government`s R&D strategy for nanotechnology (2012) «The responsible developments of nanotechnology shall provide a significant contribution to industrial and commercial development as well as usefulness to society» Three priority areas: Basic knowledge development Innovation and commercialisation Responsible technological development

6 ICT Norwegian Landscape

7 The Research Council's overall effort on ICT ICT effort is dominated by applications in other scientific disciplines Growth in ICT research as discipline is due to RCN s IKTPLUSS initiative MNOK ICT as dicipline and tech ICT in other diciplines

8 IKTPLUSS ICT and digital innovation priority scientific areas Complexity and resilience (Systems of systems) Complexity in infrastructure and IT-systems Robustness and reliability ICT in organizations People society - technology Ubiquitous data and services (Big data) Smart Systems, Robotics, IoT Computing, storage, cloud technologies Analytics, data mining, vizualisation Knowledge based systems, automation A safe and secure information society Cyber security ( complex infrastructures) Privacy Forensics Cryptogtraphy Budget: ~160 MNOK pr year
