ALGORITMI RESEARCH CENTRE
Centro ALGORITMI is a research unit of the School of Engineering – University of Minho, that develops R&D activity in Information and
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Communications Technology and Electronics (ICT&E), spreading into four major fields: (1) Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Nanotecnhology; (2) Operations Research, Statistics and Numerical Methods; Director: José Machado
(3) Information Systems, Software and Multimedia; (4) Communications, Computer Networks and Pervasive Computing. The majority of PhD-level researchers of the Center are also Faculty members of four departments of the School of Engineering, namely: Industrial Electronics (DEI), Information Systems (DSI), Industrial Engineering & Management (DPS), Informatics (DI). Furthermore, the MSc and PhD projects supervised by those Faculty members are developed at ALGORITMI. Centro ALGORITMI focuses its activity on projects that explore a strong link with the community, namely the industry and the public administration. The University of Minho is located in an industrialized region with an important expression on textile and footwear industries, and an emerging field on ICT services enterprises, pushed by the e-phenomena age. The automotive industrial field also gained recently an important share of the market. Another external factor that influences our target field of application is the growth of the cities in the region, which introduces several demands for the co-operation of researchers, namely in the field of logistics, communication, e-government and resources management. The results of this policy are stated by the number of applied research projects in cooperation with companies (funded by AdI and QREN) and by specific national projects, namely POSI, POCTI, and POE. Additionally, the Centre participates in several European projects, typically funded by IST programmes.

3B’S RESEARCH CENTRE
The 3B´s is one of the most productive and cited research groups in Portugal, comprising around 190 researchers from more than 20
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
countries (more than 70 holding PhDs). The 3B´s main areas of research are: natural biomaterials, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and stem cells. It has World leading position in its research areas, coordinates several major EU funded programs, and leads the European Institute of Excellence on Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine and the Discoveries Center for Regenerative and Precision Medicine (with the UCL - University College London, UPorto, UAveiro, ULisboa, UNova Lisboa). The headquarters including scientific and executive management are located at the University of Minho at the Avepark (Science and Technology Park at Caldas das Taipas, North of Portugal). The Discoveries Centre for Regenerative and Precision Medicine is a 15 Million € EC funded project coordinated by the UMinho - ICVS/3B’s and is also supported by the FCT and by 3 regional authorities in Portugal (CCDR-N, CCDR-C, CCDR-LVT) and is aimed to create a new multi-campi Center of Excellence (CoE) in Portugal that will operate with the strong involvement of the University College of London (UCL), in the coming 7 years. With a strong translational vision, this new Centre of Excellence will contribute to the growth and competitiveness of the Biomedical Sector, thus fostering economic growth in several levels. The new research facility at the Avepark was selected in a competitive process to be part of the Portuguese roadmap for strategic infrastructures and will receive a funding of 10.8 MEuros (the largest of the funded projects), for its installation.

RESEARCH PROJECTS OF HIGHER FUNDING
Thermoelectric Generator project explores a concept for the recovery of residual heat from motors.The concept consists of a generator that is capable of absorbing heat from highly unstable residual heat sources and supplying it thermoelectric modules without thermal dilution or risk of overheating.This is a breakthrough in the field, as these systems require precise temperature control for safe operation and maximization of efficiency. A thermal buffer based on phase change ensures thermal stability under highly variable load. This work has already provided an exploratory project of FCT (ThinHarvest) followed by two projects in progress: IC & DT FCT Exhaust2Energy led by METRICS and the M-ERA.net THERMOSS Project. They are highly multidisciplinary projects (mechanical design, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, materials, power electronics) and collaborated with the main Portuguese universities (IST-ID, FEUP, UMinho) and Foreign (UT Austin, Univ. Cardiff). It allowed for the improvement of experimental facilities and involved the hiring of three full-time researchers at the center, one postdoctoral fellow and more than 5 master’s dissertations. It also opened the door for collaboration with major companies such as BorgWarner, CIMPOR (largest Portuguese cement company) and LIPOR (urban waste management in the Porto area). iCubas5D - Design and Calculation of Intelligent Energy Containers.The iCubas5D research project represents a disruptive milestone in the mechanical design of tanks for power transformers, evolving from the classical representation based on 2D drawings to a new concept of design based on the use of knowledge - 5D. In this approach, we take advantage of the latest 3D design tools, adding automatic calculation routines to minimize execution time, making solutions easier, more responsive to QES’s growing concerns (Quality, Environment and Safety). This is a large project (budget over € 2 million) between EFACEC (leader of the consortium) and the University of Minho. EFACEC incorporates product knowledge, technological know-how and industry expectations. The University expands the knowledge base, adds theoretical capacity and incorporates scientific rigor. This project aims to ensure that the developed solutions optimize the cost / quality ratio, expecting the leader of the consortium to achieve a cost reduction of 1.2%, corresponding to around 1.1 M € / year. Taking into account the product development and production cycle, it is estimated that by 2020 the project results could impact about 75% of EFACEC’s power transformers (net sales of € 140 million). This project allowed to contract 4 masters scholarships of this center and to involve 6 PhD researchers. It will allow the strengthening of laboratory resources, such as softwares and equipment, that reinforce research capacities in this area of knowledge. EcoPROLIVE - Ecofriendly PROcessing System for the full exploitation of the OLIVE health potential in products of added value “; Program: H2020 Pillar III: Societal Challenge 2; Total Budget: € 2,417,712.00; Entities Involved: Contactica SL, Isanatur Spain SL, Prometeo SRL, Evangelos Mihopoulos & Sia OE, Engineering for Technological Development, SL, CVR - Center for Waste Valorization, University of Zaragoza, Alma Mater Studiorum-Universita di Bologna, Universidad Autonoma of Madrid.Develop an innovative process that enables the full exploitation of high value constituents present in the olive, integrating them into original products that are both healthier and “green”. The proposed innovative process is very different from the current approaches adopted by the olive oil production industry, as well as the existing waste recovery alternatives. It advocates a “zero waste” approach, in which all the resulting products have commercial value. The main objectives of the project are: to demonstrate the technical and economic viability of the process and its environmental study; ensure the absorption of technology and new products
by the market, these products being nutritionally, functionally and toxicologically characterized in order to avoid market barriers; design of the ideal process and its transition from a laboratory pilot scale to a pre-industrial application; validation in an operational environment; calculate the financial return from the concrete application of the technology and the developed process (Patents) to scalable markets; replication at different scales and countries, starting with the main olive oil producers in the countries represented in the consortium (Spain, Italy, Portugal and Greece).

PUBLIC OUTREACH PROJECTS
LabSecIoT – Lab Secure IoT powered by DigitalSign Este projeto propõe a criação de um laboratório que integra inúmeros pequenos dispositivos / plataformas com diferentes capacidades de comunicação (RFID, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, entre outros). Esses dispositivos devem ser construídos com alguns sensores para obter informações do ambiente, como humidade, temperatura, luz, etc. Essas informações devem então ser enviadas para um servidor central, que integra todas as informações, processa e fornece serviços de informação apropriados para esse ambiente ciberespaço emergente e desafiador. Rede Casas do Conhecimento Um conceito inscrito na estratégia da UMinho que visava um trabalho conjunto com as Autarquias da região para promover a inclusão das populações na Sociedade da Informação, a igualdade de acesso e eficiente utilização das tecnologias digitais, contribuindo para o incremento das competências e qualificações das pessoas e para o desenvolvimento social, cultural e económico da região.
