user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Mapping and theorising the global International Large-Scale Assessment industry' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

In the last two decades, education policy, practice and research have been transformed by the appearance and growing influence of International Large-Scale Assessments (ILSAs), which are standardized tests administered by International Organizations (IOs) all around the world. The outsourcing of the development and implementation of ILSAs from International Organizations to private companies has created a global ILSA industry. But how does the global ILSA industry operate and how does it shape ILSAs? Over the last two decades, a small, well-established group of private companies have come to control the global ILSA industry, even as ILSAs expand in scope and reach. Although scholars have extensively studied how ILSAs have impacted on education, the global ILSA industry has not been addressed by scholarship possibly due to its recent emergence and the high levels of access that are necessary. Drawing on global education policy scholarship on privatization, Critical Data Studies, and Business Studies, and applying a network ethnography approach, this research project aims to: 1) map the global ILSA industry by identifying the actors to whom ILSAs are outsourced; 2) to theorize how the global ILSA industry emerged, stabilised and operates - particularly focusing on the global ILSA industry institutions and relationships, the network functioning, forms of agency, and power practices; 3) to investigate how ILSAs are shaped by the practices, values, profit interests and power dynamics of the private sector. Ultimately, this analysis seeks to challenge unfair practices that have been normalized over the past two decades and aims to make all those developing education accountability infrastructures also accountable and their practices more transparent.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Nano-engineered high performance Thermoelectric Energy Conversion devices' (NANO-TEC).

assistant: **Concept**

Providing a sustainable supply of energy to the world s population will become a major societal problem for the 21st century. Thermoelectric materials, whose combination of thermal, electrical, and semiconducting properties, allows them to convert waste heat into electricity, are expected to play an increasingly important role in meeting the energy challenge of the future. Recent work on the theory of thermoelectric devices has led to the expectation that their performance could be enhanced if the diameter of the wires could be reduced to a point where quantum confinement effects increase charge-carrier mobility (thereby increasing the Seebeck coefficient) and reduce thermal conductivity. The predicted net effect of reducing diameters to the order of tens of nanometres would be to increase its efficiency or ZT index by a factor of 3. The objective of this five year proposal is to investigate and optimise the fabrication parameters influencing ZT in order to achieve a power conversion efficiency of >20%. For that, low dimensional nanowires arrays of state of art n and p-type materials will be prepared by cost-effective mass-production electrochemical methods. In order to obtained devices with a ZT >2 for application in energy scavenging and as cooler/heating devices, three approaches will be followed: a) determination of the best materials for each temperature range (n and p type) optimizing composition, microstructure, shapes (core/shell, nanowire surface texture, heterostructures), interfaces and orientations, b) advanced characterization, device development and modeling will be used iteratively during nanostructures and materials optimization, and c) nano-engineering less conventional thermoelectric like cage compounds by electrodeposition methods.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'A Micromotor-driven Triboelectric Nanogenerator with different Propulsion mechanisms' (MMTENG) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The triboelectric effect is always considered a negative phenomenon in daily life, and this perception was altered when the first triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) was proposed in 2012 as a new energy source. To date, the TENGs are well developed by thousands of researchers across the world, utilizing human activities, water waves, wind, and rain drops. However, there is still a gap between triboelectricity and other energy sources, for example, chemical energy and light. Inspired from natural immunocytes, artificial micromotors (MMs) referred to microscale particles capable of converting different energy sources into kinetic energy were well developed since 2004. The objective of this project is to apply MMs in TENG design (MMTENG) as an alternative strategy for electricity generation, which is expected to build up a bridge between other energy sources and electric energy through triboelectricity. The project will focus on i) the fabrication of the dielectric MM and the motion analysis under required circumstances with different propulsion mechanism; ii) the assembly of a freestanding TENG with metal electrodes and electrifiable polymer membrane; iii) the measurement of the triboelectricity converted from different energy sources.This interdisciplinary project will be supported by i) a world-renowned expert in micro/nanomachines and electrochemistry, Prof. Martin Pumera, as the host, and the facilities at Central European Institute of Technology; ii) colleagues specialized in electrochemistry and triboelectricity; iii) excellent trainings for both scientific skills and soft skills, workshops, and seminars, together with the researcher’s own experiences in MMs.In research aspect, it is always of great importance to develop new energy sources.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Development of a Low-cost, Industrial Vision Technology Based Pick-and-place Robot for Use of Packaging in the Food-Processing Industry', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The objective of the proposed exploratory project is to carry out an industrial research feasibility study and to prepare a Craft proposal to develop a low-cost, industrial vision technology based pick-and-place robot for use of packaging in the food-processing industry. Main design goal is the ability of the robot to be programmed by non-technical personnel, thus allowing the use by SME's in the food-processing industry. Because the robot will be built from standard, off-the-shelf mechanical, electronical and software components, its cost will be minimally 50% less than products, currently on the market. The philosophy behind the development of this robot is to lower the threshold for SME's in the food-processing industry, both technically and economically, to use high-technology equipment in their production process, thus increasing their competitiveness. The exploratory project will be carried out in two main phases over a period of 5 months and will involve direct input from selected industries in the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and Italy.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Public Empowerment Policies for Crisis Management' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Public Empowerment Policies for Crisis ManagementThe aim of the project Public Empowerment Policies for crisis management (PEP) is to investigate how the crisis response abilities of the public can be enhanced and to clarify what public empowerment policies are successful in realising these objectives. A general goal of crisis management is prevention and reduction of harm or damage. This is supported by the communication goals set for citizens: empowerment to act, social understanding of risks and increased cooperation. The role of communities in crisis response can be enhanced, while human technology can support preparedness training and the issuing of instructions in crisis situations.The primary goal of the (Coordination and Support) project is to bring together expertise to construct a Road Map showing promising areas and directions for future research and implementation. Various studies will bring new insights, using mixed research methods, to identify what public empowerment policies are strong enablers of public resilience. By investigating best practices in educating citizens and working with communities, taking their point of view into account, potential key enablers for public empowerment will be identified and analysed.The project will implement studies that address current gaps in the research. To identify the key enablers for public resilience, a broad overview of best practices in how authorities currently enhance public response abilities will be delivered. In addition the project will clarify how authorities can successfully involve social groups and communities in crisis preparedness and response. Promising developments in the use of social network online tools and mobile devices will be identified within a human technology approach, taking preferences

user: Explain how 'Development of femtosecond fiber lasers for next-generation accelerators' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Passively mode-locked fiber laser systems are emerging as attractive sources of powerful femtosecond pulses when the scientific impact and technological applications of ultrafast lasers are broadening rapidly. The aim of the present project is to help initiate a research effort in collaboration with other European scientists to develop ultrafast fiber laser technology for applications in accelerator-based light sources.Fiber lasers producing femtosecond pulses are emerging as extremely versatile and powerful tools for accelerator-based light sources, such as the Euro X-FEL in Germany, the Fermi@Elettra in Italy or the 4GLS in the UK. Despite notable improvements, there is little understanding of the noise properties of high-energy femtosecond fiber laser sources. Low noise is extremely important in various scientific and technological platforms, including accelerator applications.In the first phase of this project, we will characterize the amplitude and phase noise of Er- and Yb-doped fiber lasers operating in all of the commonly used regimes of mode-locking. The goal will be to identify for the first time the optimum mode of operation of a fiber laser to minimize noise. In addition, we will characterize residual noise imparted during amplification of femto second pulses in fiber amplifiers.The second phase is a development effort seeking maximal use of the know-how generated from the first phase. Here, the goal is to construct a femtosecond Yb-fiber laser for electron beam diagnostics using electro-optic techniques.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'HiLASE Centre of Excellence' (2014-2020), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Czech Republic has invested €32M in the construction of an advanced, ""next generation"" laser, HiLASE, at Dolní Břežany in Central Bohemia Region. HiLASE will be commissioned in 2015 as a major laser facility of the Czech Institute of Physics (IoP) with the potential to be an outstanding science and technology asset for the region and for Europe.  This Teaming Action will transform HiLASE from a state-of-the-art laser into a Centre of Excellence, serving a broadly based scientific and industrial user community, stimulating innovation and developing the technology itself to ensure that the Centre is sustainable and competitive in the long term.  This will enable the Centre to fulfil its role as a driver of scientific excellence and a generator of economic impact, thus raising the region's innovation performance.The IoP will team with the Central Laser Facility (CLF) at STFC's Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire, UK. CLF is widely regarded as a world leader in both the delivery of advanced laser facilities to a large and diverse international user community, and in the development of the ""next generation"" laser technology which is at the heart of this proposal. CLF staff will be assisted by STFC’s Business and Innovations Directorate who will identify innovation opportunities and drive the transition from academic experiments to industrial applications.Partnership with STFC will ensure that the Centre is ""up and running"" as a new user facility as quickly as possible, that opportunities for innovation and exploitation are identified and developed, and that a cutting edge facility enhancement programme is delivered efficiently, on time and with the best value for money.  This will ensure the success of the Centre for the duration of the Teaming Action, the co

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Functional assessment of newly identified transcription factors whose expression strongly correlates with telomerase repression' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

While 90% of cancer cells significantly express telomerase, an enzymatic complex responsible for the maintenance of telomeres, its activity is not detected in normal somatic cells. Expression of the catalytic component of the telomerase complex, hTERT (human Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase), is the limiting factor for telomerase activity, and plays a fundamental role in cellular immortalisation.The knowledge of factors and mechanisms controlling hTERT transcription is crucial to understanding the telomerase reactivation process, a key step during oncogenesis, and could bring to light new molecular targets for anticancer therapy. Our ambitious project contributes to this task by using cutting-edge techniques of cellular and molecular biology.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Optomechanical entanglement and teleportation'.

assistant: **Concept**

The control of microscopic physical systems has been demonstrated successfully in numerous experiments, in particular in the field of quantum optics. A current endeavor is to achieve this level of quantum-mechanical control also in the macroscopic domain. Promising systems for this purpose are mechanical oscillators. Quantum-controlled mechanical oscillators would enable fascinating tasks: to study fundamental physics in a completely new parameter regime, to perform quantum information processing on a macroscopic scale and to design ultra-sensitive, quantum-limited measurement devices. The goal of this research proposal is to demonstrate quantum-control of a micrometer-sized mechanical oscillator and to utilize it for a crucial quantum information application: teleportation. Optomechanical oscillators are used for this purpose, which constitute mechanical oscillators coupled to light. These devices exploit the precise control one has achieved over the quantum states of light in order to perform the required control of  the mechanical oscillator. The first objective of this research project aims at preparing low-entropy mechanical states such as the ground state of an optomechanical oscillator. Based on the latter, the next objective is to create and verify entangled optomechanical states. Entangled states only appear in quantum mechanics and are the resource in numerous quantum information applications, which outperform by far some classical tasks. For the final objective, the created optomechanical entanglement is utilized for teleportation. The teleportation protocol will open the door to the preparation of a variety of mechanical quantum states by choosing suitable input light states. These objectives will assign mechanical oscillators to the quantum-controlled physi

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'ACHIEVING HUMAN-MACHINE COLLABORATION WITH ARTIFICIAL SITUATIONAL AWARENESS' (AWARE).

assistant: **Innovation**

The goal of the project is to enable human-machine collaboration by using an artificial situational awareness system which is enabling AI to anticipate and respond to human needs by understanding human intent and goals. While humans are extensively trained to understand the capabilities, limitations, and functionality of the machines they are using, further improvements in human-machine collaboration are currently hindered by lack of awareness of human's intent on the side of machines. The project will develop and test an AI Assistant Application providing adaptable human-centric support to enhance air traffic controller's (ATCO) performance and to reduce ATCO’s workload despite high task complexity. This will be achieved by development of human-machine collaboration environment that relies on recognition of ATCO intent, ATCO situation awareness (compared to machine situation awareness) and ATCO mental load. ATCO's intent will be analysed by tracking their attention and human-machine interactions and comparing them to the tasks that need solving as assessed by the artificial situational awareness system. Adaptable support will then be provided either in solving the task they are currently focused on or solving an unrelated task autonomously. This will allow ATCOs to maintain their skills and expertise while preventing a shift towards supervisory control that has been demonstrated to undermine human capability to take-over in situations with degraded automation. A goal of the adaptable and human-aware system is to maintain ATCOs in an active role, to train their skills and expertise on the job while selectively using higher levels of automation to augment capacity. ATCOs are supported in their tasks rather than substituted by automation. It is expected that ATCOs can han

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Tailored nanosized metal catalysts for improving activity and selectivity via engineering of their structure and local environment'.

assistant: **Concept**

Production of better than existing pharmaceuticals, healthy food ingredients, perfumes, other fine chemicals, which are of immense importance for improving quality of life, is often limited by low selectivity in their synthesis over heterogeneous catalyst s. Selectivity of these catalysts, bearing metals of nanoparticle size, could be enhanced by carefully adjusting the size and environment of metal nanoparticles. The project is aimed to study the influence of metal nanoparticle size and its environment o n catalytic behaviour in some representative reactions of industrial importance and, finally, to establish the fundamental knowledge on atomic/molecular level relating the nanocatalyst synthesis and behaviour. The model reactions represent selective oxid ation, chemo- and enantioselective hydrogenations as well as catalytic isomerisation reactions, where the use of conventional supported catalysts yields to too low selectivities of the desired products. By changing the size, shape and local environment o f the nanostructures, their functionality may be controlled. To achieve the main goal, following tasks will be performed: i) development and physico-chemical characterisation of Ru, Pt, Pt-Au and Pd nanoparticles of 1-10 nm diameter incorporated in inor ganic and organic functionalised and non-functionalised micro-mesoporous matrices, polymer or carbon nanofibers, ii) catalyst testing in hydrogenation and oxidation , yielding the intermediates used for production of biologically active compounds, health y food incredients and parfumes, iii) development of reaction mechanisms by combination of diffusion and kinetic modeling together with time dependent Monte Carlo - quantum chemical calculations. The obtained results will allow finding correlations betwe en the nanopart
