| The SYRECOS project
intends to define, develop and validate a data
communications system for regional Small and
Medium sized Entreprises (SME) training
organisations and technological transfer agents
concerned with the regional development. The
beneficiaries will be small and medium-sized
companies. Two speciric data network applications will enable the common approach to he validated, namely: |
|||||
|
|||||
| Main result of the project will be the SYRECOS system, which consolidates the know-how of these two applications acquired at the three demonstration sites. | |||||
This project has the following aims: |
|||||
|
|||||
| Assessment of the timeliness and feasibility of trans-regional access to these local markets by mean of data network system. | |||||
Results of the Project |

|
|
|
| Two
Web software were developed and validated in the
context of the project : a Web software called «
SYRECOS - Télé Service pour la Formation
Continue » (SYRECOS TFC) dedicated to the
continuous training market and an other Web
software called « SYRECOS - Télé Service pour
le Transfert de Technologie » (SYRECOS TTT)
designed to help to technology transfers between
skill centers and SME's. SYRECOS TFC Resulting from the work performed during the project, SYRECOS TFC is a Web software proposing a framework dedicated to continuous professional training and aiming to set up a dedicated electronic market. It provides to users a set of specific functions related to the management and publication of information related to continuous training offer and support functions (see annex 1. for details). The final users are - the continuous training organisations - the clients (for example SME's) of these organisations. The customers could be - public authorities (regional, national) in charge of animating and/or organising continuous training in their respective areas - private companies wishing to set up Web services around continuous training offers and demands - large continuous training centres - big companies Syrecos TFC also allows the customer to be directly involved as administrator in the management and the animation of the « continuous training electronic market » created within the framework of one particular installation of the software. SYRECOS TFC is a telematic application whose main technical features are the following: - Web application - use of a database (ORACLE) - dynamic generation of HTML pages using CGI scripts written in PERL The owners of SYRECOS TFC software (version 2), i.e. CRPHT, BEP and FUNDP, agreed that Regional marketing will be achieved by the involved partner or its authorized representative. That means that CRPHT will cover Luxembourg and BEP and FUNDP, the French speaking part of Belgium, i.e., the Wallonia and Brussels regions. Commercialisation of SYRECOS TFC software outside of the areas defined above can be done by any of the partners, irrespective of the others. SYRECOS TTT SYRECOS TTT is a generic software (used for the SI MTR) which is now available on CD-ROM. After the installation, all the operations can be done from any Internet connected computer. This software offers possibilities to manage : Users : users can be created or removed by the administrator. Databases : databases can be created and removed (depending on the rights of the user). Database field : fields of each database can be modified online. Fields can be added, erased or modified. Users right : access of each user to each functionality of the system on each database can be managed. Rights can be defined to : - Search - List - Add - modify - or erase data from each database. -Add -List - Modify - Erase fields of each database. - Add -Modify the name -Erase database. Etc … Advanced functionalities are developed to make Technology Transfer Easier. The CD-ROM contains database format to be used for technology transfer but other databases can be built. The software can be used either as an Information System for Technology transfer or to model any other telematic application in any domain. With this software, it is very easy to create databases, databases fields, to transfer data from Excel sheets to the databases and to manage users and users rights. The software can be installed on a UNIX SOLARIS Server. A WEB server software, and a NEWS server software are necessary to run the application. Other applications like PERL 5.04 Free WAIS SF and SFGATE must be installed to run the application (these software are free). The application remains above all institutional system whose finality is the technological support to the development of SME's. It is possible to put instantiation of SYRECOS-TTT in other regions. This can be done using French "Contrats de Plans Etat Région". Some regions (like PACA and TOSCANE) are already interested by using SYRECOS-TTT. TRANSVALOR (http://www.transvalor.com/)is the industrial structure dedicated to transfer and valorise the results of ARMINE's laboratories. |

| Product SYRECOS TTT is used on several servers. The product can be installed on a UNIX SOLARIS server. The CD-ROM of the product is available. This CD-Rom allows the installation of the engine of SYRECOS TTT (management of databases, modification creation of tables, management of users...) and of the databases used for the Technology Transfer application. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Three types of users are involved |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Technologies and/or approach used |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The approach aims to
lead the users to more efficient practices, by
involving them in their definition. This
involvment will be enhanced by an effective and
iterative use of the tools built. Choice of technology is conducted by genericity considerations, that's to say by the use of technological standards. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Expected benefits for the citizen |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| As individuals, citizens are a particular kind of the system's users , who address more specifically, the needs of unemployed or sub-trained citizens. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Expected benefits for the users of the application |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Suppliers: understanding and widening of their market improvement needs for their products or services caused by the more open competition. Customers : better knowledge of the offer, involvement in the offer definition, better product quality. Institutions in charge of regional economic development means to effectively support them in their function. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Expected benefits for the European Industries |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Being customers for training and ompetencies, industries are also interested in the project. Moreover, the trans-regional opening of local markets by means of telematics is really an opportunity for them. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Contribution to EU-policies |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The project meets the concerns of European policies for regional development, particularly as regards the quality of the market for continuous training, the major concern of the big training programmes (LEONARDO and SOCRATES). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
