user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Novel integrated refurbishment solution as a key path towards creating eco-efficient and competitive furnaces' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main goal of VULKANO is the retrofitting of two types of industrial furnaces, namely preheating and melting, applied on three energy–intensive sectors (steel, ceramic and aluminium) with a huge number of potential users in Europe. Thus, this project aims to design, implement and validate an advanced retrofitting integrated solution to increase the energy and environmental efficiency in existing industrial furnaces fed with NG; through the combined implementation of new solutions based on high temperature phase change materials, new refractories, optimised co-firing of NG and syngas from biomass or process gas, an advanced monitoring and control system and an holistic in-house predictive tool. All together will achieve a 20% increase in the energy efficiency of furnaces. On top of that, the realistic and powerful holistic tool will also able to optimize the integration of the solution with upstream/downstream perspective, following a life cycle and cost thinking. This predictive tool will support plant operators and decision makers to select most suitable retrofitting strategy for their plants, fostering overall efficiency, increase in competitiveness and circular economy and reducing the environmental impact of the product value chain from an LCA and LCC perspective.The retrofitting solutions will be tested at TRL 7 in two real facilities in Ceramic (Spain) and Steel (Slovenia) sector, validating the replicability of such solutions in a third sector (Aluminium-Turkey). VULKANO addresses the main challenge when facing furnaces retrofitting, which is tackling the problem from an overall and cost thinking perspective, which will enable overcoming the barriers for energy efficiency improvements. A well balanced consortium formed by end-users, technology solutions provid

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Big data pRocessing and Artificial Intelligence at the Network Edge'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Edge computing offers many technical advantages, e.g., reduced latency, secure decentralized processing and storage, scalability at lower complexity, versatility to adapt the changes in resources and applications, and increased reliability. Edge computing can dramatically boost services and applications by supporting artificial intelligence (AI) natively, instead of relying on the cloud. Edge computing supporting AI is the only technology that will enable many of the long-awaited game changers: Industry4.0 and smart manufacturing, 5G, IoT, self-driving vehicles, remote robotics for healthcare, and machine vision among others.The BRAINE project’s overall aim is to boost the development of the Edge framework focusing on energy efficient hardware and AI empowered software, capable of processing Big Data at the Edge, supporting security, data privacy, and sovereignty. The approach is to build a seamless Edge MicroDataCenter interlinked with AI enabled network interface cards. BRAINE employs a visionary utilization method for edge resources management and network-edge workload distribution. Predicting resource availability and workload demand, identifying trends, and taking proactive actions are all aspects of these novel methods. The impact of BRAINE encompasses advances in the European video distribution ecosystem, improving data processing at the network edge, and proving integrated AI for applications. These will lead to unprecedented savings in performance and energy efficiency: 2x performance/Watt and 50% energy savings; 71% latency reduction for an acceleration centric EMDC; 80% space and maintenance reduction, 99.999% fault tolerance with level 5 autonomy (autonomous driving, robotics, mission-critical system); and significantly faster infrastructure installation and

user: Explain how 'Harnessing the Molecules of Medicinal Plants' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Plants, as sessile organisms, synthesize complex molecules for defense and signaling. Humans have long exploited the potent medicinal activities of these plant natural products: artemisinin from sweet wormwood is used to cure malaria, vincristine from Madagascar periwinkle is used to treat cancer, and morphine from poppy alleviates pain. Synthetic biology approaches are being used with increasing success to overproduce these expensive molecules, which are often present at low levels in the plant. However, to pursue such approaches effectively, we must fully understand the biosynthetic pathways that generate these molecules. This pathway discovery process has been a major bottleneck in harnessing the chemical power of plants.Recent advances in sequencing, bioinformatics and metabolomics have provided the tools to address plant natural product metabolism on an unprecedented scale: we can now use inexpensive RNA-seq data, in combination with bioinformatic analyses and metabolomic data, for rapid identification of pathway-specific biosynthetic gene candidates. Here we use these advances, along with our expertise in chemistry, to unlock the extraordinary chemical diversity that is found within the ca. 3000 members of the plant-derived monoterpene indole alkaloid metabolites. By strategically selecting a group of molecules that are chemically diverse, yet biosynthetically and evolutionarily related, the gene discovery process will be dramatically accelerated (Objective 1). Moreover, using this strategy, we will uncover new biochemical mechanisms by which chemical diversity is generated in plants (Objective 2). Understanding these mechanisms will allow us to generate “unnatural” chemical diversity in the laboratory by creating production platforms that produce new-to-nature mo

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Indeterminacy of equilibria in open economies' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

In a seminal contribution in 1961 Nundell introduced the theory of Optimal Currency Areas. His idea was that in the presence of imperfect factor mobility is not advantageous to fix exchange rates. The objective of this project is to provide a microfoundation of this idea and to construct from that a macroeconomic model for policy analysis. A cash-in-advance model will be used, where a Central Bank is active in providing money to agents, there is no representative consumer and incomplete market hypotesis is done. In such a framework both monetary policy is effective and Central Bank can choose a nominal variable, that remains indeterminate. If that variable is the interest rate - how we observe in reality - we can compare the effects of different exchange rate regimes on welfare. We can also analyze how actions undertaken from agents in a uncertain world are droven - in a keynesian sense - from the Central Bank.

user: Explain how 'Charge conjugation and parity violation in beauty Physics' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

A large experimental effort at SLAC (BaBar Collaboration) and KEK (Belle Collaboration) is devoted to measurements on beauty B meson decays. These data are presently used to test the Standard Model of weak interactions. They allow to explore charge conjugation (C) and parity (P) violation and to determine accurately the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements. This proposal is to examine hadronic B meson decays to fix as precisely as possible the fundamental parameters of the Standard Model. Some hint of physics beyond the Standard Model might result from this research work. A beauty B meson is a heavy bottom quark b (mass m_b) bound with a light quark by the strong interaction in a colorless object. Its study involves non-perturbative Quantum Chromodynamic s (QCD). To probe accurately CP violating processes, these QCD aspects need to be controlled. Existing data on two-body hadronic B decays are fitted using a rigorous QCD factorisation formula based on the fact that m_b is much greater than the QCD scale La mbda_QCD. These QCD factorisation fits are particularly sensitive to input assumptions on quark distribution functions. The first research goal is to reduce these uncertainties.This will be achieved using a computer program recently developed. The professional experience of the candidate on boosted quark-anti-quark meson wave functions will be crucial. A second aim is to study the importance of the non-perturbative Lambda_QCD/m_b corrections from charmed c-quark loop penguin diagrams. A last goal is to exten d the calculations to the B_s meson, in anticipation of the experimental data from LHCb at CERN. This research project is favoured by the presence of a strong experimental LPNHE team involved in B decay experiments. Such a phenomenological and theoretical stu

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Cost-effectiVe materIals for susTainAble eLectrolyzers'.

assistant: **Concept**

Electrolysis technologies are pivotal in accelerating the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Among them, proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, currently stand at an installed capacity of 0.92 GW and continue to grow,  in view of their desirable performance traits such as high operating currents and fast response. However, their reliance on perfluorinated materials such as Poly(Trifluoroethenesulfonyl Fluoride) (C2F4O2S)n for core parts (membrane and catalyst binder), and critical raw materials (iridium and platinum for catalysts), raises environmental concerns due to the recycling challenges of forever chemicals –the EU weighs a complete ban for forever chemicals such as Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), and cost. The reliance on noble metal catalysts, especially iridium, does not contribute to high capital costs, but poses scalability concerns due to the extremely limited availability of iridium. Overall, these hinder the sustainability prospects of PEM technologies at scale, and their widespread commercialization. These underscore the pressing need for innovative strategies to realize sustainable and efficient electrolyzers.VITAL (Cost-effectiVe materIals for susTainAble eLectrolyzers) addresses these challenges through the development of novel, fluorine-free membranes, integrated with cost-effective, non-critical raw materials. VITAL aims to demonstrate electrolyzer systems for H2 generation which combine sustainable scalability and performance. VITAL innovation relies on the development of fluorine-free membrane electrode assemblies, implemented through a recyclable olefin polymer membrane paired with in situ grown catalysts; free of platinum group metals (PGMs), and designed to achieve competitive performance for H2 electr

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Vertical Structure of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer and Applications'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Research on renewable energy sources becomes of crucial importance in view of global warming, fossil fuels crises and nuclear power dangers. Wind energy gradually takes bigger part of energy production in Western European countries and is planned to develop further. This process depends on new technologies (size, shape and materials of blades and higher turbines), but also specific meteorological research on vertical wind profile is required. Both the construction and energy production of new more efficient wind turbines are presently impeded by the meteorological parametrizations in the models used. Further, both wind energy assessment models and mesoscale meteorological models implement surface layer wind profile parametrizations (valid up to 50-80 meters) for turbines of height 200-300 meters above ground. Recently published by the applicants analysis suggests improved parametrizations of the wind profile in the lower few hundred meters above ground revealing the importance of the atmospheric boundary layer height. The new wind profile parametrization was tested over flat grassland, flat suburban area and over sea. Still, the parameters that control the wind profile above 100 meters are poorly understood. Further research, both experimental and theoretical, is needed to check applicability limits and to streamline the formulations. The results can be directly implemented in wind power assessment models and mesoscale meteorological models. Deepening the understanding of the processes (wind, temperature and turbulence profiles) within the atmospheric boundary layer has many other important applications, such as atmospheric dispersion for accidental releases, air pollution, parametrizations in climate models, loads on tall buildings, etc. The research will be conducted

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Aspirations Social Norms and Development'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Development economists and policymakers often face scenarios in which poor people do not make choices that would help them get out of poverty due to an “aspiration failure”: the poor perceive certain goals as unattainable and do not invest towards those goals, thus perpetuating their own state of poverty. The aim of this proposal is to improve our understanding of the relationship between aspirations and socio-economic outcomes of disadvantaged individuals, in order to answer the question: Can we design policy interventions that shift aspirations in a way that is conducive to development?In addressing the above question a fundamental role is played by social norms and by the ability of individuals to coordinate on “new” aspirations, hence the analysis of social effects is a salient feature of this proposal.The proposed research is organized in two workpackages. The first focuses on the media as a vehicle for changing aspirations, examining both commercial TV programs and “educational entertainment”. The second workpackage examines “tailored” interventions designed to address specific determinants of aspiration failures (e.g., psychological support to reduce perceived barriers; inter-racial interaction to change stereotypes; institutional reform to strengthen women’s rights and reduce the gender aspiration gap).The methodology will involve rigorous evaluation of several interventions directly designed to or indirectly affecting aspirations and social norms. Original data collected through survey work, large administrative datasets and media content analysis will be used.The results of this project will advance our knowledge on the sources of aspiration failures by poor people and on the interplay between aspirations and social norms, eventually opening the avenue for a n

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Secure, Private, Efficient Multiparty Computation'.

assistant: **Innovation**

MPC is a cryptographic technique that allows a set of mutually distrusting parties to compute any joint function of their private inputs in a way that preserves the confidentiality of the inputs and the correctness of the result. Examples of MPC applications include secure auctions, benchmarking, privacy-preserving data mining, etc.In the last decade, the efficiency of MPC has improved significantly, especially with respect to evaluating functions expressed as Boolean and arithmetic circuits. These advances have allowed several companies worldwide to implement and include MPC solutions in their products.Unfortunately, it now appears (and it’s partially confirmed by theoretical lower bounds) that we have reached a wall with respect to possible optimizations of current building blocks of MPC, which prevents MPC to be used in critical large-scale applications. I therefore believe that a radical paradigm-shift in MPC research is needed in order to make MPC truly practical. With this project, I intend to take a step back, challenge current assumptions in MPC research and design novel MPC solutions. My hypothesis is that taking MPC to the next level requires more realistic modelling of the way that security, privacy and efficiency are defined and measured. By combining classic MPC techniques with research in neighbouring areas of computer science I will fulfill the aim of the project and in particular:1) Understand the limitations of current abstract models for MPC and refine them to more precisely capture real world requirements in terms of security, privacy and efficiency.2) Use the new models to guide the developments of the next generation of MPC protocols, going beyond current performances and therefore enabling large-scale applications.3) Investigate the necessary priva

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Networking studies on ice and compliant structures' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

A lot of hydrocarbon and wind energy resources are available in ice-infested sea areas. The exploitation of those resources is retarded by difficulties in evaluating forces that arise while a drifting ice floe acts against the offshore structure installed on the seabed. Hence, the present work aims at solving persistent problems of dynamic ice-structure interaction. Scientific knowledge and measured data scattered in the EU and China will be pooled to create a basis for a step change in an understanding of the interaction phenomena concerned. Full-scale data from Chinese platforms have a central role in the efforts of this network. Researchers will be sent to partner institutes in Europe and in China for a joint analysis of all available data. The deliverables comprise a set of publications on the scientific problems concerned. In addition, the feasibility of an international design code for ice loads is evaluated and reported.

user: Explain how 'Living standards, inequality and taxation' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Income is widely agreed amongst academics, policy-makers and the general public to be a crucial indicator of personal economic well-being. Information about its distribution is a vital input to analysis of levels and trends in overall living standards, poverty and inequality. Information about its redistribution through government policies income taxation and social security benefits in particular is important for assessing public interventions designed to improve equity and social justice, and for providing a counterpoint to information about changing incentives, efficiency and growth. We propose the development of appropriate social indicators which link monitoring of policy instruments such as income taxation and social benefit systems with social outcomes in terms of living standards. These indicators are especially relevant to the assessment of social integration and exclusion, both within and between countries of the union, and also trends over time. The work linking the structure of the tax and benefit system to these social indicators does, of course, provide an important link between the instruments of policy and the social outcomes of interest for the European Community. A key concern of the overall project is the interaction between developments in analytical methods and their practical applications and policy relevance. The theoretical part of the project will concentrate on three issues, introducing new methods of analysis: (i) the reexamination of the fundamentals of inequality measurement. (ii) the implications for inequality measurement and tax design ofdifferences in households composition, and (iii)the analysis of the distribution and redistribution in a dynamicframework. The applied research also addresses these issues  and more generally provides imp
