The center is dedicated to a five-year research program into \u2018Innovative Platforms for Electronic Systems\u2019 that is going to be undertaken in cooperation with companies operating in the sector. The Josef Ressel Center is being funded by the Bundesministerium f\u00fcr Digitalisierung und Wirtschaftsstandort (BMDW \u2013 Federal Ministry of Digital and Economic Affairs) in conjunction with the participating companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInnovative hardware is one of the prerequisites for digitalization,\u201d Margarete Schramb\u00f6ck, Federal Minister for Digital and Economic Affairs, said. \u201cFlexible, reprogrammable hardware will be driving many areas forward, including electronic tolling systems, autonomous vehicles and Industry 4.0. This JR Center will be making a valuable contribution to this progress while, at the same time, strengthening important Austrian companies and the Austrian research landscape.\u201d<br>\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to have a second Josef Ressel Center at the FHTW,\u201d Rector Fritz Schm\u00f6llebeck said at the opening ceremony. \u201cIt underlines both the quality of our research in the fields of embedded systems and cyber-physical systems as well as the confidence that sponsors and industry have in our skill sets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h5\"><strong>Location factor: complex microelectronics at lower costs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Josef Ressel Center will be working in the area of field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). These are microelectronic components that enable the realization of entire multiprocessor systems on single chips. This makes FPGAs highly innovative platforms for electronic systems. They are used as components in telecommunications, for example, but also in such other fields as automotive and consumer electronics. Market studies forecast further growth in the demand for these highly developed components over the coming years. FPGA technology is opening up the potential especially for countries such as Austria \u2013 where the economies depend largely on SMEs \u2013 to realize complex electronics while avoiding the now exorbitant one-off costs that are associated with the production of application-specific circuits (ASICs). The Josef Ressel Center will also be able to tie in with current Austrian initiatives, such as \u2018Silicon Austria Labs\u2019 or \u2018Silicon Alps\u2019 in the electronic based systems sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h5\"><strong>Ministry of Economic Affairs supports applications in telecommunications, Industry 4.0 and AI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New design methods, ways of minimizing power consumption and aspects in the realization of safety-critical systems using FPGAs are, for example, being investigated at the research center \u2013 always practice-oriented and based on the concrete applications needed by the<br>business partners, i.e. Elektrobit Austria GmbH, Kapsch TrafficCom AG and Oregano Systems Design &amp; Consulting GmbH. The application areas include automotive electronics and diagnostics, automation technology, electronic tolling systems and high-precision clock synchronization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cModern electronic systems are also essential basic platforms for many applications in the fields of artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things,\u201d Dr Peter R\u00f6ssler, Head of the Josef Ressel Center, said. \u201cRapid technological progress in microelectronics makes it necessary to continuously keep abreast of the latest developments in the field. Such funded projects as the Josef Ressel Centers create very good opportunities for the UAS Technikum Wien to embrace these developments and to work with industrial partners while helping to shape them to a certain extent through application-oriented research.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h5\"><strong>Josef Ressel Centers: international best practice, open to other businesses<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Top-level application-oriented research is carried out at the Josef Ressel Centers where outstanding researchers join forces with innovative companies. The Christian Doppler Research Association is internationally regarded as an example of best practice in the promotion of such joint activities. Josef Ressel Centers are jointly funded by the Bundesministerium f\u00fcr Digitalisierung und Wirtschaftsstandort (BMDW \u2013 Federal Ministry of Digital and Economic Affairs) and the participating companies. The flexible funding model means that other interested companies are also able to join the cooperation during the center\u2019s five-year term. The new Josef Ressel Center is the second project of this kind in Vienna and at the same time the second Josef Ressel Center at the UAS Technikum Wien: research into the verification of embedded computer systems was already carried out in a closely associated field there from 2013 to 2018.<br>More information is available&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/embsys.technikum-wien.at\/projects\/ines\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research into high-tech microelectronic components \u2013 joint funding from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Elektrobit, Kapsch, Oregano Systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"template":"","news-categories":[],"news-tags":[],"ppma_author":[1746],"class_list":["post-15344","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"featured_image":{"id":"28187","top":"50","left":"50","url":"https:\/\/media-hp.technikum-wien.at\/media\/20220831124443\/gruppenfoto_jrz_0-1.jpg","width":"2048","height":"1152","alt":""}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>\u2018Innovative Platforms for Electronic Systems\u2019: Second Josef Ressel Center opened at the UAS Technikum Wien | FH Technikum Wien<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The second Josef Ressel Center at the UAS Technikum Wien was officially opened on March 7th, 2019.
