Project Schedule

After the withdrawal of two partners and its substitution for another one (see news of beginning of 2003), the initial duration of the project (2 years) was extended in 5 months, with slight modifications in the workplan, which only affected the second and third years of the project. The second year was rescheduled to finish technical work, extending developing tasks from 9 to 12 months in order to recover the delay accumulated because of the mentioned withdrawals. The extended period of 5 months will be devoted to tune and validate the three prototypes.

First Year: May 1st 2002 - April 30th 2003 (finished)

Second Year: May 1st 2003 - April 30th 2004 (finished)

Third Year: May 1st 2004 - September 30th 2004 (finished)
