GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

Scope

• Development of software for the various tools and for the platform: demand and supply data collection, results sharing, secure access, supply chain simulation, semantic web link, services,
•  Incentivisation for participation in order to get data
• the collection of demand data is done through anonymous surveys and a clear methodology should be established reflecting the periodicity of the surveys, the kind of data, etc.
• For the survey, secure MPC (Multi Platform Computing) methodologies should be considered
• For the granularity transformation AI/ML techniques should be envisaged utilizing semantic web technologies to assure the interlinking of the data
•  For the supply chain description, interfacing with ERP systems must be considered
•  For the ontology underlying the semantic web, use of the SC3 project results and linking with the SC3 consortium are mandatory.
• By the end of the project a credible track to collect demand data within 3 years after the end of the project that covers around 25% of the semiconductor supply chain should be described in a confidential deliverable
• Validation should be done with a small group of market participants in real world use cases that can be participants to the consortium or other parties that participate on a voluntarily basis. The results of the validation are part of the deliverables
•  Demonstrators reflecting the different aspects of the platform are part of the deliverables
• At least one realistic service should be demonstrated
•  Promote the use of the data sharing platform amongst the semiconductor supply chain organizations
• Propose a complete business model including types of services, type and growth of users, pricing options for the services, cost of maintenance of the platform, governance, infrastructure investments, etc.

In general, the action should build and re-use where possible on results developed in other projects (EU or National).
