DESCRIPTION:CYBER-HUMAN SYSTEMS\nComputing plays an ever increasing role i
 n all aspects of our life. As a consequence\, society and information tech
 nology continuously interact and influence each other in a complex process
 . In this context\, cyber-human system research investigates the increasin
 gly coupled relationship between humans and computing with the broad goal 
 of advancing human capabilities. Novel models\, methods\, theories and tec
 hnological innovations in information technology are developed to increase
  our understanding of this new class of computing systems and to exploit t
 heir large economical and societal potential.\nResearch in cyber-human sys
 tems addresses specifically all aspects close to the interface between hum
 ans and information technology. It is concerned with novel computing platf
 orms such as wearable\, textile-integrated and mobile devices or even pers
 on-embedded sensors and computers. The research also explores systems that
  interact with users through multiple modalities such as new interaction t
 echniques\, computer displays and even brain-machine interfaces. Algorithm
 ic aspects in cyber-human systems concentrate on local data processing in 
 smart devices at the network edge rather than sending all data to the clou
 d for processing. Finally\, research also addresses the consequences of su
 ch an augmented life and society where an intelligent infrastructure could
  influence and impact all aspects of our lives.Funding:\nThe program has b
 een endowed with CHF 5 millions.\nMaximum duration: 3 yearsKEY DATESSubmis
