Description
Workshop to:
- Bring to the attention of a wider UK community the ongoing work on R&D roadmaps, at UK and European level
- Identify the UK ambition for, and approach to, R&D in the electronics and integration areas

Community discussion 1h 20m
- What are the key technical challenges for the UK in these R&D areas?
- What are the organisational / logistical barriers for us?
-- Centralisation vs complete freedom?
-- Focus vs diversity?
-- Project-led versus blue-skies?
-- PP-focussed versus generic? - How much is all this going to cost? Is it justified?
-- What is the likely UK participation in integration / electronics areas for future projects?
-- What is the length, breadth and scale of R&D activities leading to them?
-- Are there commonalities we can exploit?
-- What demonstrator / exemplar projects should we target, and when? - How do we ensure and maintain efficiency?
-- Design and IP re-use
-- Commonalities between projects
-- Reduction of internal design competition - What happens if we do nothing?
- What is the relationship with industry and other research areas?
- How do we convince people to act on this?
- How do we sustain a community?
