Project description: ChannelS had a superior objective of developing knowledge, methods and technological building blocks for net-based, multi-platform information and service solutions ― solutions which enable information and services to be tailored and channeled to various target groups in different work and life situations.
NR's contribution: Twenty-four projects were performed within the scope of ChannelS. Several of these sub-projects were fully financed by ChannelS, while others were spinoff-projects with industrial partners. Twenty-two researchers were involved in the SIP. Four theses for the master degree have been delivered with subjects relevant to the SIP.
Benefit for customers: ChannelS served several purposes for the customers and spin-offs, from development of a channel strategy to basing new companies on results from the project.
Benefit for society: The project dissemination was part of the information stream on multimedia, helping to create knowledge on convergence in the media market.
Project results: The ChannelS report summarizes the results of the project.
