Abstract
The purpose of the Dissemination Report document series is to report performed dissemination activities of the uTRUSTit project on a yearly basis. The main goal of dissemination is to raise awareness of the project, from the concept to the final results, promote its adoption and gain publicity to the 7th Framework Programme.
The uTRUSTit dissemination process itself is split into three subsequent phases: first our activity targets mostly the R&D community, that are open to a still unfolding, yet promising European initiative; then we take a step further by extending our audience, building on available project results; finally we go on to emphasizing exploitability of project benefits and pave the way for a fruitful project afterlife.
The first dissemination phase covered the endeavors aiming at gaining public awareness of the uTRUSTit project’s existence, background, goals, concept, vision, expected impact and the collaborating group behind it. This initial dissemination – yet lacking major demonstrable results – was effectively promoted by delivering assisting materials as a project design templates, logo, poster, leaflet, and presentation slides.
This issue of Dissemination Report closes a successful first year in our communication activities, reaching a wide group of interested communities and individuals, and yielding many feedbacks to our own work, which both will improve our professional design process and our dissemination strategy in the next two years.

1. Introduction
1.1 Background – a quick overview on uTRUSTit’s dissemination The main goal of dissemination is to raise awareness of the uTRUSTit project, from the concept to the final results. A properly carried out dissemination promotes uTRUSTit adoption and helps identify exploitation prospects globally. It is also an opportunity to gain publicity to the 7th Framework Programme.
The dissemination process itself is split into three major one-year-long phases:
1. The first phase is to make uTRUSTit goals and concepts known among the R&D community. Beyond that, it also focuses on audiences that are open to an unfolding initiative, yet lacking tangible delivered values.
2. The second phase builds on the first convincing results: methodology reports, specifications and initial prototypes that are already available to be disseminated. Provided with means to approach a wider set of groups, the consortium can undertake an aimed dissemination process.
3. As the project starts delivering its final results, our dissemination focus moves over to exploitability in the third phase. The consortium will put efforts to let the widest audience benefit from uTRUSTit results, establishing a fruitful afterlife of the project.
Each phase has different goals needing different approaches to achieve them.
With our dissemination activity, we target the scientific community, industrial stakeholders, the public sector, and other groups who might be interested in the achievements of the project. The main goal of this first phase was to spread the word about uTRUSTit as an R&D initiative with valuable industrial prospects. This was mainly achieved by certain offline activities (presenting the project on conferences, workshops, exhibitions and other events, using an introductory dissemination material set) along with means gaining online visibility (e.g. creating the official uTRUSTit website, and also featuring uTRUSTit on other webpages). The basis created so can well be built upon in the next phases by refining and undertaking our strategy according to a comprehensive dissemination plan and thus extending and improving our ways to reach the targeted groups effectively. This process is further elaborated in [D8.2].
In the next chapters, the first dissemination phase results are reported.
1.2 Scope of this deliverable The purpose of this document is therefore to report performed dissemination activities of the first year of the uTRUSTit project. It also supports the definition of a well-focused dissemination plan for the second and third year of the project starting in September 2011.
The dissemination report is delivered every year, providing an overview of the current status. The next dissemination report will already comprise a section about exploitation which will highlight particular activities undertaken towards the industrial community and further uptake of the uTRUSTit project results.

2. The First Dissemination Report
2.1 Objectives of the first year For the first year of the work, we had set the following goals:
The uTRUSTit project’s existence, background, goals, vision, concept, expected impact and the collaborating partners behind it – its so-called static properties – should be widespread known
All tools that help us achieve the above goal must be prepared
Project-relevant opportunities (e.g. conferences, press visibility) should be monitored and exploited
As the following sections will suggest, we achieved the first goal with good results. We gained visibility in multiple online and offline channels: press, forums, websites as well as conferences and workshops Europe-wide.
We created multiple dissemination materials to assist us in dissemination activities, including the uTRUSTit website, a press release, scientific papers, a leaflet, a poster and presentation slides.
Continuous monitoring of dissemination opportunities was fruitful to gain public awareness; however, it is also clear that some groups and communities will be addressable even more effectively once uTRUSTit already has tangible results. This and other feedbacks helped in forming a suitable dissemination plan for the remaining two-third of the project.
2.2 First year results The dissemination activities in the first year of the project have mainly focused on the scientific dissemination of the initial project results and taking steps to gain awareness of the project among the general public.
As the project kicked off, the consortium started work by publishing a press release. Various media showed interest, which has led to published articles in written press or online media. The press release can also be found on the project website in multiple languages: http://www.utrustit.eu/utrustit_latest-news.html.
The press release was followed by the work on dissemination materials, including the project logo, the design templates, the poster, the leaflet and the website.
2.2.1 Dissemination materials
Logo and templates We started with the creation of a template set for uTRUSTit documents with a design of its own. This set included the official uTRUSTit logo, as shown below:

Figure 1 – The uTRUSTit logo
Poster The poster features ‘static’ information about the project: logo, partners, description, goals, vision, impact, contacts and reference to the 7th Framework Programme. The poster also puts emphasis on the first year results of uTRUSTit: the Requirements, Scenarios, Personas and more.
Figure 2 – The uTRUSTit poster
(For a larger image of the uTRUSTit poster see Appendix 1 – The uTRUSTit poster on page 23.)
Leaflet The leaflet (or project brochure) complements the poster with more or less the same messages, but with a different phrasing and layout, that more suits a trifold flyer.

Presentation For visibility on conferences, the availability of a presentation slide set was an early need. It contains basic information on the project and its environment: what is the Internet of Things, what are the issues, how can uTRUSTit help solving them, who are the collaborative partners.
Figure 4 – The uTRUSTit presentation (first page)
(The slide set can be viewed in Appendix 3 – The uTRUSTit introductory presentation slides on page 25.)
Website The launch of the project website (http://www.utrustit.eu) was also rapid; on its public interface, it features basic information on the project, while the private area serves internal file sharing of delivered documents and templates. The uTRUSTit website will be adapted and updated throughout the duration of the project in order to present the latest project results, information about events and dissemination materials.

2.2.2 Conferences, workshops
Since the project was launched, we have been attending and organizing numerous events, some of them already organized but still to take place, (including workshops and EU and clustering events) where we had the opportunity to popularize uTRUSTit. The table below enlists the significant events – where we either introduced the project as a dedicated part of the event (e.g. gave a presentation) or saw an opportunity for future exploitability of project results. The table will be followed by a longer description of each event.

AmI-11 Conference Workshop on Privacy, Trust and Interaction in the Internet of Things, November 16 2011, Amsterdam
http://iot-workshop.cure.at/
This workshop addresses topics of increasing importance in the emerging area of the Internet of Things (IoT): privacy, trust and related interaction concepts. The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts from different relevant areas to cover the complexity of the questions involved and to provide a forum for developing new ideas and approaches on how to address some of the major challenges in the field considering both a scientific and an industrial viewpoint. The workshop targets to identify the most pressing open questions in the field and to develop a research agenda for trusted and privacy-respecting computing in the internet of things. Special attention within the workshop is given on whether and how experiences with privacy and trust from related areas (such as e.g. ubiquitous computing) can be applied to the IoT, where existing conceptualizations need to be extended or modified and where radically new concepts are required.
The workshop will be organized by CURE as part of its uTRUSTit dissemination activities and as the first uTRUSTit Workshop. It will present the results of the uTRUSTit project in form of user requirements and interface designs for the IoT system to be developed.
Presentations will be available on the workshop website.

NFC symposium, January 25-27, 2012, Stockholm
http://www.nfcsymposium.com/
SWE has been asked to participate as speaker and with fore front pre-study which the uTRUSTit prototype for e.g. Medical Cabinet would be suitable. NFC Symposium is particularly interested in having a look at what the stakeholders know and think about NFC and the focus for the symposium is e.g.
1. Banking & payment 2. Mobile Operators 3. Transportation 4. Access Control 5. Security
The symposium is organized by Midfield Media (www.midfieldmedia.com)
2.2.3 Scientific publications
As part of the year one dissemination activities of uTRUSTit, the consortium handed in and published scientific papers at conferences, and organized a scientific workshop. Stemming from the structure of uTRUSTit’s workflow, the DoW had originally scheduled all publications to the 2nd and 3rd project year and to the time after the project’s end. Yet, the consortium has already had enough material to publish based on first-year research work. These publications target the user requirement research, including scenarios and personas, as well as the insights with respect to target users gathered from the user requirements analysis (WP2).

2.3 Individual participation of partners Below is a report summary on the partners’ contribution to the first year dissemination results.
2.3.1 CURE
The Dissemination & Exploitation work package is led by SEARCH-LAB, but as the coordinator of the project CURE also has a lot of responsibility in this respect. Therefore CURE has contributed to several activities such as the creation of the leaflets and the poster. In collaboration with SEARCH-LAB, CURE has built the uTRUSTit website. CURE has sent out the press release through various online channels, which resulted in an interview with the Austrian daily quality newspaper ‘Die Presse’. Furthermore an interview with the website of the German TV news programme ‘heute’ led to a report on the website. As a research organization CURE also takes part in networking events, such as the EffectsPlus Meeting in Amsterdam or the Future Internet week in Budapest, scientific conferences and publishes articles in journals. Namely CURE has published a paper titled ‘User affordances towards mobile devices in the Internet of Things’ at a workshop treating mobile work efficiency at the MobileHCI conference in Stockholm in August. CURE will also organize a workshop about ‘Privacy, Trust and Interaction in the Internet of Things’ at the AmI11 conference in Amsterdam, where researchers in this particular area will come together and discuss current findings and research approaches. Additionally CURE will present the chosen approaches from uTRUSTit to leading researchers in the field of IT security at the DeepSec conference. For the following years of the project CURE aims at scientifically disseminating the gained results at international conferences and workshops, such as the Interact, SOUPS or NordiCHI conferences and at networking with leading researchers in the field of privacy, security and trust, for example at EffectsPlus clustering meetings or the Future Internet Assembly.
2.3.2 Norsk Regnesentral
The Norwegian Computing Center/Norsk Regnesentral (NR) has written factsheets detailing the project and announced its participation in the uTRUSTit project. This is standard procedure for all of NR projects. NR has also translated the official press release to Norwegian. Most of the work on public dissemination will happen after the year one mark. We have already submitted two conference papers. One for the Nokobit conference in Norway discussing the personas and scenarios that was rejected and a position paper on trust strategies for the Internet of Things workshop at the International Joint Conference on Ambient Intelligence (AmI-11). We also will present information about the E-ID and trust in the Internet of Things at The Identity Theft Conference (ID-tyverikonferansen) 2011 in September. We will also be presenting at Yggdrasil 2011 information about accessibility in mobile devices, which is related to our work in the Internet of Things. For future papers, we are also planning submissions for the Universal Design 2012 Oslo Conference and Soups in the next year.
2.3.3 Technical University of Chemnitz
The main contribution to the dissemination activities from Chemnitz University of Technology (TUC) was to publish the initial press release on the Universities homepage and to forward this press release to the German “Information Service Science”. This information service has 18065 subscribers of which 4329 are registered as journalists. 372 of them are accredited. This

allowed spreading the information about the start of the project to a wide interested public and science journalists.
2.3.4 SEARCH-LAB
As the leader of the Project Dissemination and Exploitation Work Package (WP8), SEARCH-LAB is responsible for continuous coordination of relevant activities. In the first year, coordination tasks mainly consisted of setting goals, methodologies and delivering assisting solutions (e.g. compiling communicable project properties; creating a wiki for better internal communication) before a comprehensive strategy is created; and driving deliverable preparation in a way that increases further exploitability. Continuously synchronizing with other partners, SEARCH-LAB also created the uTRUSTit project logo, poster, leaflet and presentation slides to assist dissemination activities. Similarly to other partners, we translated the press release of project launch to our language and featured uTRUSTit on the company website and flyer. In the following phases, our activities will concentrate on delivering and acting upon the Dissemination Strategy concerning both coordination and individual participation tasks.
2.3.5 Katholieke Universiteit Leuven
The Interdisciplinary Centre for Law and ICT (ICRI), Faculty of Law, K.U.Leuven has announced its participation in the uTRUSTit project on its personal website as well as in the online faculty research newsletter, ensuring a broad dissemination within the university and affiliated research partners. A Dutch translation of the initial press release will ensure further public dissemination within the Dutch-speaking community. The public activities of the uTRUSTit project are also a frequent topic of discussion in networking events, scientific conferences and workshops to which ICRI - K.U.Leuven participates. Further dissemination will be sought through scientific papers and articles.
2.3.6 Sweden Connectivity
Sweden Connectivity has gotten new contacts within the industry eg. Exma, Pas Card, SWElarm with possible direct support from NXP and TI thanks to the uTRUSTit project. SWE has also been able to disseminate uTRUSTit into those channels. Together with the FP7 partners in the project reviews of presentations and feedback has been important to reach out for new contacts. Having prototypes in 2012 will enhance dissemination work greatly for the uTRUSTit project within the industrial arena.

3. Evaluation of the process and results This Periodic Dissemination Report document closes the first of the three dissemination phases we described in Section 1.1 (Background – a quick overview on uTRUSTit’s dissemination). Our three goals were
Drawing attention to the launch of the uTRUSTit project
Creating the first set of necessary helping tools
Monitoring and exploiting project-relevant dissemination opportunities
If we measure our overall success by the width of the group we were able to reach, our activity in conferences, workshops, featuring uTRUSTit in online and offline media and the consortium partners’ own interfaces all show notable results.
These results also gave some important feedbacks which we will consider in planning future dissemination activities. Some of these:
Market acceptance and a fruitful project afterlife is best achieved if we make dissemination and exploitation work for each other’s benefit, and see uTRUSTit design processes and deliverables with a ‘marketing-eye’ from the very beginning of our work;
Dissemination should monitor and follow the continuous change of forums where our targeted groups (e.g. IoT developers) communicate – e.g. social networks;
Scientific dissemination should foster interaction and discussions with experts in the field of IoT, privacy, security and trust as well as HCI and accessibility as well as collaboration with related projects
To gain better acceptance by the wider public and get important feedbacks (also from end-users), it makes sense to create an active community around uTRUSTit. This can only be undertaken once we have tangible results and demonstrable interesting use cases. Static dissemination materials – such as posters and leaflets – then will be less important as dynamic information steps forward. The same is true for reaching media and target groups.
The Dissemination Strategy will build in the experience gained to ensure an advanced approach for the next two phases of our communication work.

4. Future work By the time the first phase closes, uTRUSTit’s Dissemination Strategy will also have just been delivered. The strategy will be building on
Common FP7 project dissemination practices
Customization to uTRUSTit specialties
The consortium’s relevant experience from the first project year
Achieved scientific results and findings
Current tendencies identified as having influence to markets, target groups and technical development associated to uTRUSTit
and comprehensively explains the necessary steps that the above reasoning yields.
Additionally, in 2012, the gained results of the first VR evaluation phase and the developed uTRUSTit prototypes as well as the first version of the Trust Feedback Toolkit will be presented to a wider public and according media will be made available.
Independently from the dissemination planning, partners also will regularly attend certain conferences, clustering events (such as Effectsplus events) and workshops, which provide further opportunities for spreading the word of uTRUSTit. Some of these foreseen events are enlisted below:
