De la ROMNET la MINOS. Un turneu de prezentare in vestul Europei a potentialului noilor state membre …….. Dan Dascalu Coordonator ROMNET-ERA si MINOS-EURONET
Pentru inceput: un exemplu • Diseminare • Seminar national de nanostiinta si nanotehnologie (a 6-a editie a avut loc la 26 martie 2007) • Seria de volume “Micro- and nanoenginering”, in Editura Academiei Romane, care publica si lucrarile seminariilor nationale “nano” • O revista care include si subdomeniul micro-nano: ROMJIST • Acum in baza de date Thomson ISI
Series in Micro and Nanoengineering The volumes from the “Micro and Nanoengineering” series are edited by the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy and includes a selection of extended and updated papers presented at national scientific events or papers presented at workshops organised in the frame of international projects (FP6 projects - NoE, IP, STREP). Due to the breakthrough of nanoscience and nanotechnology in all science, the topics of the papers in the volumes are various. The papers present novel results in different inter-and multidisciplinary fields. These volumes are addressed to all interested people from universities, research institutes or companies working in the field. It will be distributed to the university libraries.
Romanian Journal of Information Science and Technology • The Romanian Journal of Information Science and Technology is a scientific publication from the Publishing House of the Romanian Academy. It is edited by the Section of Information Science and Technology from the Romanian Academy (the members of the Section form the Editorial Board). • The journal is intended to be a forum for dissemination of original results of research in the area of information processing, in the broad sense, from theoretical computer science to new insights in electronics and telecommunications, and to applications of all these. • Only original papers are accepted and the unique selection criterium will be the quality of the contributions. All kinds of articles are welcome: "usual" journal papers, short notes, surveys of high quality about topics of broad interest; occasionally, special issues devoted to specific topics, or collecting selected paper presented to conferences will be published, as well as Ph.D. theses. All contributions will be refereed.

Micro and Nanotechnology Bulletin(http://www.imt.ro/mnt),quarterly edited by IMT The materials presented into the Bulletin are not scientific papers, but other types of contributions such information about new centres of research, networks, successful cooperation, events with special focus in MNT. Will be further supported by MINOS. You are invited to send contributions for MNT Bulletin at: mnt@imt.ro.
The articles published in MNT Bulletin are stored on the IMT server and they are searched by the “Google” searching engine on the web, displaying the articles where the searched entity appears increased visibility for entities publishing articles in MNT Bulletin(mainly Eastern institutions) • Example: • an article entitled "Department of Silicon Micrrosystem and Nanostructurre Technology, National Center for Micro- and Nanotechnology, Institute of Electron Technology, Offer and resources for cooperation in FP7“ appeared in MNT Bulletin Vol.8/No.1 – 2007. • When searching by Google after “National Center for Micro- and Nanotechnology, Poland”, the displayed results are from the MNT Bulletin on the 2nd and 3rd position.
A Web-Based Magazineis used in MINOS to disseminate the most interesting information about competencies in NMS and ACC: • - national programmes and initiatives • national infrastructures • successful European cooperation • outstanding scientific results • national centres of excellence • profiles www.minos-euro.net/wbm Please send your contributions for WBM at: wbm@nano-link.net
DATABASES for: • Research centres • Specialists • International projects implemented in ROMNET-ERA and further used in MINOS-EURONET, assuring the connexions between Romanian resources with Eastern and Western Europe partners The database for specialists includes information related to the specialist’s profile, affiliation, competence domains, participation in the most relevant international R&D projects, and interest for collaboration, including interest for themes (priorities for cooperative research) in FP7. The database for organizations allows the inventory of scientific research centres interested in the participation to FP6 and FP7 projects. The registrations should include information regarding the organization profile, interest in FP6 and FP7 (themes, specific programme in FP7), interest for the technological platforms, competence and resources relevant to FP6 and FP7, relevant projects (national, international, bilateral cooperation), participation in scientific networks, activities organized by the centre. The database questionnaire has various possibilities of data selection, assuring an efficient search. The information can be periodically updated. Free search available for Specialists and Research centres databasesbycountry, keywords, domain.
IMT developed a system of automatically selecting the information from databases using keywords and producing a corresponding “pdf” document, which can be distributed electronically (including on CD) or printed during various events, the content being tailored according to the participants at the events (selecting the countries and topics of interest). Examples of brochures and CDs distributed with the occasion of the First MINOS-EURONET Forum
