On 1^st of January 2018 the European cooperative research project, SERENA "gan-on-Silicon Efficient mm-wave euRopean systEm iNtegration plAtform" has started. The SERENA project aims to substantially increase the functional performance of high-frequency radar systems as well as significantly reducing their cost. The envisaged SERENA architecture and platform is suitable for a wide range of applications such as safety radar, high-speed wireless communication, or imaging sensors. There is a strong industry pull to substantially reduce the cost of mm-wave systems for future key markets such as 5G wireless communications and autonomous vehicles (automotive radar sensors). The SERENA technology will be based on breakthroughs in Gallium Nitride on Silicon (GaN-on-Si) technology and state-of-the-art volume packaging. The consortium consists of 10 partners from 6 different countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, and Sweden).

On 1^st of January 2018 the European cooperative research project, H2020 FutureTPM "Future Proofing the Connected World: A Quantum-Resistant Trusted Platform Module" has officially started. Our team will research a Quantum-Resistant (QR) Trusted Platform Module (TPM) by designing and developing QR algorithms suitable for inclusion in a TPM. The project consortium consists of 14 industrial and academic partners from 9 different countries (Austria, United Kingdom, Cyprus, Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg, Ireland, Portugal and Greece).
