Also included are three projects forming part of the 18th-month start-up phase of JESSI (Joint European Sub-Micron Silicon).JESSI is a Eureka initiative designed to strengthen Europe's international competitiveness in the design, manufacture and application of a new generation of standard and customised microchips.

Current examples: - Under the SCIENCE programme, the EJOB network comprising eight laboratories from five different countries has devised the first optical microprocessor in the world.

To this end, the Commission plans to cooperate with banking institutions, organizations and authorities in order: - to promote consistency in the application of existing standards for magnetic-stripe cards; - determine the procedures for hybrid cards (magnetic stripe + microchip) as well as prepare the coexistance of types and for systematic access to cash dispensers for all types; - in conjunction with the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT), determine the procedures for interconnecting networks, and - examine the problems arising from (a) the use of the ECU and (b) charges for services supplied ...[+++].

With respect to the ballistic missile warning mission, the U.S. Northern Command, NORTHCOM, set up their own processors in August 2004.
