Cross-Programme Actions

• topics common to several Key Actions (avoiding
  fragmentation)
• topics of a strategic nature reflecting the IST
  vision
• topics not foreseen when IST was set-up
• support integration, convergence and building of
  critical mass
• 13 Action Lines in WP2001 (20 of workprogramme
  content)
• provide support to eEurope (large scale
  demonstrations trials)
