Common use of MRPS Clause in Contracts

MRPS. MRPS aims to exploit the project’s results by expanding the current range of home care services provided to elderly to include the Miraculous-Life system. The project fits well in its care provision program providing for interventions set to enhance the autonomy, dignity, sense of purpose, and identity of the elderly. Furthermore, MRPS together with other partners of the consortium is interested to work out a commercialization plan of the overall project outcome after the project. MRPS will disseminate the project and its results to stakeholders and policy makers, organizing on-site visits, open days and press conferences, as well as presenting the project and the concept in different national exhibitions and events. It has to be mentioned here that based on the knowledge acquired in the project, a start-up was created by persons working in MRPS, associated with ergotherapists, for the use of tablet technologies in the domain of handicapped (in the large sense) children. Regarding the standardization strategy, two approaches are followed. On the one hand, get an overview and information about existing standards in the care and the ICT domain so that the project can use available standards in the organization and for the technical development of various components, especially regarding interoperability, scalability and connectivity of the system. On the other hand, we monitored existing and ongoing work in standardization bodies and organisations with a special focus on interoperability, virtual characters, Human-Computer- Interaction based on emotions and behaviour analysis. Moreover, the project worked and partners are working towards standards to ensure that the research and development activities, but also the organizational activities, related to standards are aligned with the existing and future trends. This all having in mind the ultimate goal to enlarge the business and exploitation possibilities for the system or system components. This chapter describes the existing standards relevant for the project, the standards used or which will be used by the partners and the future trends or next steps we see as a partner and as a consortium.
