In
the scope of the initiative “Excellence Centres”, managed by the
portuguese Agência de Inovação, a
network of partners has been constituted, with the objective of
aggregating and generating knowledge and critical mass, in
Portugal, for the
Mobility area, in order to create new products and services for the
national and international market.
The
partners network joins several competence
areas in a complementarity logic inside
the Network. In terms of Computer Engineering and Telecommunications
competences, there are companies in the network, such as, Mobicom, EFACEC, Elo,
OPT, Trenmo and SISTRADE. In the
Operational Logistics area, the network has as member the company
STCP – Sociedade de Transportes Colectivos
do Porto. Centro de Computação Gráfica, o
INEGI and INESC Porto are the investigation centres belonging to the
Mobility Competence Network. Porto University, through its Engineering
Faculty, Aveiro University, and the Porto
Management School are the university
level institutions which are also part of this excellence
network.
The Mobility Competence Network intends to create investigation projects
such as Intermodality, ticket systems,
mobility supervision, mobile services based in location, new
applications and citizens services, transports planning, tele-work and cooperation in mobility,
industrial integration and new ways of relationship between
companies and its staff, as well as solutions in the security and
control area.
The Network is open and allows the cooperation of external entities,
either in terms of casual and specific projects inside the Network,
either through the figure “Associated Member” with a set of duties
and rights.
For SISTRADE, participating in this Project is extremely important. On
one hand because the Mobility Competence Network performs
investigation in knowledge areas with a vast future potential, and,
on the other hand, because SISTRADE actually has available
technologies and solutions always based in the mobility concept.
Thus, participating in this project, will allow to
widen the knowledge, to study and create new solutions,
always aiming at offering the national and international
market solutions with high value added.
SISTRADE – Angulusridet Informátia, S.A. is an IT Portuguese company,
with headquarters in Lisbon,
delegations in Porto and Madrid, with industrial management
products and solutions based in Web technologies. For more
