i2010 Strategic Framework A comprehensive strategy for ICT and media sectors Single European Information Space Centred around convergence telecom, media, and information technology Innovation and Investment in ICT research Increasing R&D efforts Inclusion , better public services and quality of life Oriented towards citizens http://europa.eu.int/i2010
RFID policy Towards a Communication December 2006: Communication from the European Commission December 2006 March 2006 September 2006 June 2006 3 July – 17 Sept. 2006: Public online consultation 6-7 March: Internet of Things Sept. – Oct. 2006: Analysis of input received Oct. – Nov. 2006: Drafting of the Communication March 9, 2006 at CeBIT: Commissioner Viviane Reding announces the launch of a Europe-wide public consultation Ongoing research and co-operation 15-16 May: Applications 16-17 May: Security & Privacy 1 June: Interop./ Governance 2 June: Frequency spectrum 16 Oct. 2006: Final conference http://www.rfidconsultation.eu
RFID policy Current RFID research in detail 40 collaborative research projects in FP6 Total investment € 312 million, EC contribution € 153 million In addition, national RFID research projects
RFID policy Interoperability and standards Closed vs. open systems Up to now, RFID usage has been confined to closed system usage Expected potential can only be realised in an open system approach Role of the Commission Stimulate/support global harmonisation of RFID standards Should take a more active role in setting RFID standards Role of Industry Actively participate in global standardisation activities
RFID policy Frequency allocation and regulation Spectrum allocation Reallocating spectrum is a long process Consensus exists in Europe to promote a globally harmonised spectrum EC decision on UHF spectrum harmonisation meets today’s requirements Sufficient for initial RFID deployment Future adoption Longer term spectrum requirements have to be explored now
RFID policy Privacy and security Users’ privacy protection Core principles and mechanisms should be defined EU’s Data Protection Directive Stakeholders to comply with set principles Guidelines for RFID deployers and RFID technology manufacturers Global accord Common principles and best practises for privacy and security Societal concerns RFID use in the workplace Environment-friendly RFID tags Health and security

Other examples of policies ICT Standardisation Open consensus building process Priority for ensuring interoperability, facilitating ICT uptake, and ensuring accessibility “ Technical standards may be arcane, but control over them can determine the rise or fall of industrial empires. Just ask Microsoft, or Sony and Toshiba, which are vying fiercely to set the rules for the next generation of DVD technology. National prestige is also at stake. As Chinese officials like to say: third-class companies make products; second-class companies develop technology; first-class companies set standards” ( Financial Times , 13 July 2006) http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/ict/policy/standards/ict_index_en.htm
