Using Network Analysis to Monitor and Track Effects Resulting from Changes in Policy Intervention and Instruments |  | |
The IRU has won an EU tender for the project above and will undertake the following tasks to meet the objectives outlined in the proposal. Informed by FP6 and FP7 datasets on EU-funded ICT R&D networks, IRU will apply and further develop methods from network analysis and agent-based simulation to understand and manage the relation between research funding and realising the different goals of EU policy programmes. IRU’s innovative contribution will be to develop computational designs for a DG INFSO´ R&D policy laboratory in silico in order to inform policymakers about optimal network structures for ICT research and innovation. Our study will provide insights for the ex-post evaluation of FP7 and for the impact assessment and ex-ante evaluation of FP8. |
