user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Mediterranean dialogue on integrated water management' in the context of a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Despite the important number of research projects in the water management, monitoring of water resources and water related technology, performed at local, regional or Euro-Mediterranean scale, there exist a general perception that water management models a re still constructed from points of view that ignores contributions from all the key stake-holders, specially users and citizens, determinant for the impact on the territory of water schemes and the satisfaction of the water demand, specially from the sustainability point of view. Another general perception in the Mediterranean area is the lack of visibility of the important role that Science and Technology play in the sustainable development of the region.Parts of these problems are due to communication gaps between political and administrative institutions, scientists, cultural workers, lawyers, economist, end-users and citizens. The Coordinated Action MELIA aims at structuring a dialogue among the key stakeholders concerned and affected by water use and management, such as scientists and professionals, decision makers, policy makers, water providers, citizens. This dialogue aims at creating a Forum where water players can share knowledge, find consensus and propose new perspectives on the emerging needs and appropriate integration of knowledge for water management, in a region of scarce resources such as the entire Mediterranean basin.The main MELIA targets are:- Building a knowledgebase for integrated water management planning, based on integrating contributions from the wider spectra of perspectives- Develop a Mediterranean-wide awareness of the social (cultural and participatory), economic and technological issues related to water management- Propose participatory mechanisms and prevention tools to avoid conflic

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Transit Oriented Development (TOD) for Inclusive and Sustainable Rural-Urban Regions' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

TOD-IS-RUR focuses on Transit Oriented Development (TOD), conceiving public transport as a backbone for socially Inclusive and environmentally Sustainable urbanisation in European Rural-Urban Regions (RURs). The overall objective is to go beyond the urban focus and undifferentiated, model-based approach of current TOD research and practice, and extend TOD to RURs with a context-based approach. If Europe is to make a transition to inclusive and sustainable urbanisation, this extension of TOD is essential, as most Europeans live in RURs, not just in urban cores. Yet, current TOD approaches are at odds with mobility-urbanisation relations in RURs, generating socio-environmental side-effects and risks. TOD-IS-RUR sets up an interdisciplinary, international and intersectoral network to analyse, develop and test-case innovative context-based approaches by bringing in expertise from urban studies (i.e. mobility studies; landscape research and design; transport justice, planning and geography; social and historical geography; social innovation; Science & Technology Studies (STS); environmental history). Drawing on a wide-range of European RURs, the ETN thus transcends disciplinary and national fragmentation. The 9 Beneficiaries and 12 Partner Organisations create a unique platform for 10 Early Stage Researchers (ESRs), providing interdisciplinary and intersectoral expert-level training in analysing and improving TOD for RURs. The research and training will prepare a new generation of highly-skilled professionals able to meet the scientific and societal challenge of countering urban sprawl in the spatial contexts where most Europeans live, and implement inclusive and sustainable planning schemes for RURs. In so doing, TOD-IS-RUR will create innovative, much-needed approaches, to

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Kerr based Opa for High Energy infraRed PulsE geNeraTion' (KOHERENT) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

High-energy, few-cycle duration, laser sources in the near-to-mid infrared (NMI) spectral region are sought for a number of different fields, e.g. for high-field physics. Recently, seminal investigations with NMI radiation aimed at the generation of high-order harmonics and attosecond pulses have been made and to this purpose, many groups are involved in the development of laser sources with the required features, i.e. 1.5-3 microns wavelength range, 20-30 fs duration and energy above 1 mJ.All approaches used so far are based on parametric processes in second order nonlinear media (SNMs). This method does not allow a scale-up in energy, mainly due to the impossibility to scale in size or to pump with very high energies SNMs supporting large amplification bandwidth.In this project we propose an alternative route, based on parametric interaction in Kerr media, that solves these issues allowing the generation of NMI pulses with the desired features. We have recently observed that parametric processes in Kerr media allow for the generation of NMI few-cycle pulses with efficiency comparable to that of SNM but without their limitations.We shall thus develop a Kerr-based parametric source with more than 10mJ/pulse energy, tunable in the NMI spectral region and with few-cycle duration. This will be of remarkable importance and will result in a novel tool to be implemented in the new European high-power laser facilities (including the return institution), to be used in a host of novel, exciting experiments, e.g. the investigation of analogue Hawking radiation (subject of this proposal return phase).The partner organization (INRS-EMT) is the best choice to this purpose, thanks to the possibility of accessing ALLS, one of the most powerful (up to 5J/pulse energy) and state-of-the-

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Waves of Regime Transformation' (WAVES).

assistant: **Innovation**

Over the past 120 years, the number of countries affected by waves of democratization and autocratization (Waves of Regime Transformation) has been steadily rising. The current number of countries experiencing autocratization is unprecedented, highlighting the urgency in understanding: How and why do democratic and authoritarian practices spread across the globe in wave-like patterns?Project Objectives1. Develop a conceptual and empirical framework to identify waves of regime transformation. 2. Formulate a theory explaining the driving forces behind these waves. A particular focus is on the role of Zeitgeist - the meaning of “democracy” at a particular time and place - and how it affects waves. The theory also clarifies how such waves propagate across different regions and periods. 3. Test the theory empirically, identifying the drivers behind these waves. WAVES develops a multi-level framework for studying waves of regime transformation at individual, national, regional, and global levels. It breaks new ground by using an interdisciplinary, mixed-methods approach, combining techniques from evolutionary biology, political science, and computational social sciences. WAVES builds both a conceptual and empirical framework to study the evolution of these waves, applying causal inference methods to explore their drivers. It examines how hegemonic shocks, diffusion, parallel development, and Zeitgeist shape waves of regime transformation. WAVES challenges the assumption that democracy’s meaning is stable over time and tracks the evolution of Zeitgeist using text analysis of parliamentary speeches.WAVES moves the field forward by developing a theory of regime transformation waves and creating an empirical dataset that traces these waves since 1900.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Distributed Water Quality Monitoring using Sensor Networks' (WATERNET) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The quality of the water in our rivers and lakes is increasingly coming under threat, not only from industry but also from the general pollution of our environment. Since in many parts of Europe river water is the source for our drinking water, treatment plant operators are faced with the more and more difficult task of determining the quality and deciding whether to use the water or not. At the other end of the process, waste water treatment plants have to apply more scrutiny to the water quality of their outlets. Finally, increasing public awareness puts pressure on public authorities and administrations to provide comprehensive and timely information on the state of the rivers and expected developments.Operators at treatment plants have to manage large amounts of data, obtained from on-line sensors and laboratory analyses. Distributed sensor networks covering a complete river basin add to the difficulty of this task. There is a strong need for appropriate methods and tools to achieve a clear assessment of the current state of the water quality, to detect major pollution events quickly and to assess trends of the water quality, in both the short and long term. Current control and supervision systems do not fulfil these needs.It is the objective of WaterNet not only to provide the users with a suitable technology but to demonstrate the usability and appropriateness of newly developed methods in real-life applications. It aims to show that both operators and authorities will be helped by intelligent aggregation and simplification of the vast amount of environmental measurement data. These methods are the result of the research and development carried out in ESPRIT Project 6757 - EMS (Environmental Monitoring Systems). Together with the users of three validation sites, t

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Dynamic Modeling of Labor Market Mobility and Human Capital Accumulation' (DYMOLAMO), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

In today’s globalized world, labor mobility is at the core of the political debate and a centerpiece for economic policy. The design of migration policies, such as selective, skill-biased, immigration policies, policies to encourage the integration of immigrants, or ones that facilitate geographical mobility to increase labor market opportunities of disadvantaged workers, requires a good understanding of a more fundamental issue: understanding the role of internal migration and immigration in shaping the career paths and human capital accumulation of workers. This project aims at providing a coherent analysis that allows us to understand the interactions between labor mobility and human capital accumulation, and their implications for economic policy design. This project focuses on three main issues: labor mobility, labor market effects of immigration, and the interaction between the two. Our questions are: (a) What are the role of temporary and permanent contracts in shaping career paths and geographic mobility of workers? (b) Does the forgone human capital accumulation during a recession produce a lost generation? Is this alleviated by geographical mobility? (c) What is the role of geographical and occupational mobility in spreading or containing the effects of technological progress on wage inequality? (d) To what extent selective immigration policies maximize native workers’ prospects and wellbeing? (e) How can we increase degree of assimilation of immigrants? To address these questions, we will develop dynamic equilibrium models that explicitly characterize human capital accumulation decisions of workers and how these decisions interact with migration. Our proposed models will introduce rich labor market structures and a variety of economic shocks. They will requir

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Single-Hole Pumping in Silicon'.

assistant: **Objectives**

A globally consistent system of measurement units and reference standards is a necessary underpinning feature of most technological, industrial and economic activities. In fact, to perform measurements of physical quantities, record and compare them in a consistent way, systems of units and standards have been historically developed and agreed upon. However, in the last few decades, the ever-increasing need for stability and reliability has determined a shift from standards based on material artefacts or prototypes towards those based on physical phenomena and true constants of nature. The focus of this proposal is the development of a novel quantum technology to generate highly accurate electric currents directly linked to the elementary charge. This could serve as the practical implementation for a quantum-based standard for the SI unit ampere, which is a long-standing goal in electrical metrology. Semiconductor nano-scale charge pumps have been used in the last three decades to generate accurate electric currents by clocking the transport of single electrons with driving oscillators. The main limitation to the fidelity of the charge transfer is ultimately ascribable to the poor spatial confinement of electrons that produces errors during the pumping cycle. In this project silicon-based nanotechnology will be employed to realize and operate the world-first charge pump based on the transfer of single holes rather than electrons. A hole carries the positive equivalent of an elementary charge, but its effective mass can be significantly larger than the electron's. The resulting tightly confined charge carrier wavefunction is expected to provide significant benefits in suppressing pumping errors. The primary objectives will be to develop the underpinning technology to fab

user: Describe how 'Development of evaluation criteria, prediction and control methods concerning sea-salt effects on monument stones' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

A) To develop predictive models of susceptibility to sea-salts for stone materials of different origins (magmatic, metamorphic and sedimentary), at different distances from the sea and at different altitudes. B) To develop a combined non-destructive technique through ultrasonic pulses and picture processing for the automatic processing maps of the textural characteristics of the stones and of their decay patterns for damage evaluation.The project will deeply examine the sea-salt deposition as a function of distance from the sea, altitude, morphology of the coast and wind force. To establish a catalogue of susceptibility to decay for the different types of stone taken from monuments (located differently in terms of the distance from the sea and altitude) the sampling areas of the stone materials on the Atlantic coastal belts of Spain and France and the Mediterranean coasts of Italy and Greece were selected . The research programme includes the following 8 principal functional parts: 1. Environmental conditions and saline rising damp by capillarity action: sea-salt deposition, solution and crystallisation in relation to the altitudes and distance from the sea. Elaboration of a general model to predict sea-salt concentration. 2. Chemical and microanalysis on weathered stone materials. Total soluble salts, ions determination, salt concentration profile and micro-distribution with the stone. 3. Accelerated simulation tests on weathered, quarry and treated stones samples. Design and optimisation of ageing tests simulating the sea-salt decay mechanisms. 4. Petrographic, textural and physical characteristics. Mechanical tests on stone materials. Modulus of compressibility measurements, bending strength and abrasive tests. 5. Porous and/or microfactured stones systems investigat

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Advanced training in earthquake engineering for reduction of seismic risk'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The University Institute for Advanced Studies (I.U.S.S) was founded in 1997 by the University of Pavia and the Ministry of University and Research to organize highly qualified experimental programmes in education. Among several initiatives, a series of advanced graduate schools were started, to form high level specialists prepared to take on managerial roles in specific professional sectors, in line with a policy of European integration and market globalization (European Schools for Advanced Studies). The ROSE School is one of them, covers the field of earthquake engineering and is unique for its international faculty and for the organization of education and research training. The syllabus offers a comprehensive set of subjects covering applied mechanics, structural engineering, earthquake engineering, engineering seismology and soil dynamics, with emphasis on both theoretical background and design considerations. All courses offered (at least nine per year) are intensively taught in a period of four to six weeks, with approximately 75 hours of lectures and tutorials each. All teachers are recognized experts in their field and stay for approximately six weeks, being fully dedicated to teaching and research training. The School counts on high level numerical and experimental facilities, including the large structural laboratory of the University of Pavia, and on dedicated classrooms and residential structures where all students are hosted at subsidized costs. Cooperation agreement has been established with the Universities of California, Berkeley, of Illinois, Urbana, the Imperial College, and London, the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Applicants should be high-level PhD students with academic background on civil, mechanical, geotechnical engineering or equivalent. Stud
