FORSYS is a four year (2009-2013) Cost Action whose primary objective is to develop a procedural framework, information standards and guidelines for the development, testing, and evaluation as well the application of Decision Support System (DSS) for forest management problems in multifunctional forestry (see the Memorandum of Understanding – MoU at Action home page http://fp0804.emu.ee/).
Short Term Scientific Missions (STSMs) allow scientists to learn from an institution or laboratory in another COST country innovative concepts and methodologies of particular interest to young scientists. The Applicant should normally be a post graduate student, a postdoctoral fellow or be employed in an institution of a COST Country having accepted the MoU. FORSYS activities are structured in four Working Groups (WGs): 1. DSS Architecture and design 2. Method-based management system 3. Knowledge management 4. Participatory processes
The WGs’ work passes a number of milestones of various characters which relate directly to the points highlighted in the scientific program. One aim of STSMs is to contribute to the achievement of one or more milestones (see the WG workplans on http://fp0804.emu.ee/). Applications can only be submitted by using the on-line registration tool on http://www.cost.esf.org/stsm (select Action FP0804). To see details go to ftp://salix.slu.se/download/FORSYS_info/STSM.pdf; copy link to browser if needed. The applicant should also submit to STSM coordinator Luigi Portoghesi (lporto@unitus.it): (i) a detailed work plan, (ii) CV, and (iii) host acceptance letter.
The work plan should be structured as follow:
- Background of and motivation for the mission
- Goal of the proposed STSM and its contribution to FORSYS objectives
- Main contents of the STSM (list of activities to be carried out at the host institution)
The budget for an individual STSM can be maximum € 2500 including travel and a daily allowance of € 60-90. The Steering Committee of FORSYS will evaluate the applications on behalf of the Management Committee.
The current call can be found in the list below.
