The SICSA Directors are pleased to announce that from February 2015 SICSA will fund a number of Research Challenges per year, each running for a period of 12 months. Each of the SICSA Research Challenges will be driven by a problem or issue whose resolution will have impact on the world outside Informatics and Computer Science research; and they will require the combination of research from different areas across SICSA as well as involving other Research Pools or researchers in other disciplines.
The four SICSA-funded Challenges for 2015 will be
Future Cities
Identifying Health Promoting Elements in Care Homes
UX for mHealth: Understanding & Supporting Health and Wellbeing “In the Wild”
Visually-Impaired access to Visualised Data (VIVID)
