user: Draft an impact statement for 'Imaging the transfer function of a cortical input layer', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The functional properties of local neuronal microcircuits determine the computational capacity of specialized brain structures and drive animal behaviour. The cerebellum is a specialized anatomical structure that is involved in the learning and execution of motor coordination.It contains only a handful of morphological cell types that have been extensively characterized. Theoretical calculations and computer modeling studies have suggested several ways in which the connectivity and physiological activity might be translated into motor control.However, experimental validation of the input-output function of the cerebellar microcircuit is still lacking. We propose an original experimental paradigm to unravel how the cerebellar cortical circuit processes incoming sensory-motor inputs in its input layer. First, we will mimic physiological cortical inputs in a reduced preparation of the vestibulo-cerebellum. Secondly, we will monitor simultaneously the activity of multiple identified neurons within the circuit in situ.To this end we will use an innovative multi-photon microscope that has been developed in the sponsor's laboratory in Paris. This unique device, based on acousto-optic deflectors-operated beam steering, performs 250 kHz digital scanning as well as digital photon counting.It is a promising tool to perform long-duration optical multiunit recordings (50 cells) with millisecond temporal resolution in situ. Additionally, the improved spatial and temporal resolution afforded by acousto-optical beam steering allows distributed excitation of hundreds of points in a plane.Combining this technology with glutamate uncaging will allow us to study integration of synaptic inputs by stimulating controlled physiological patterns of neuronal excitation that mimic cortical inputs

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Safe, sustainable and high performance adhesives and coatings from industrial softwood bark' (SuperBark) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Adhesives and coatings are an integral part of consumer products used in our daily lives. Today, the vast majority of adhesives and coatings on the market are formulated using fossil-based and harmful chemicals, which conflicts with the EU-level goal of reducing our dependency on non-renewable resources and protecting the health and well-being of citizens and the environment. The SuperBark project will exploit natural components in softwood bark, a major industrial side stream of forest industry, to develop ≥ 95% bio-based adhesives and coatings for wood panels and packaging paper with the functional, safety, and sustainability standards required by the industry and consumers. The project partners will deliver this through 1) extraction of polyphenols from bark using a novel alkaline fractionation technology and conversion of cellulose-rich bark residues into cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) 2)  development of adhesive and coating formulations using bark polyphenols and CNF that meet technical requirements and build on Safe and Sustainable by Design principles set out by the JRC and 3) combination of digital technologies in process design, system dynamics modelling, and data analysis to accelerate the adhesive and coating developments and evaluate technical, socio-economic and market opportunities. The project findings will be disseminated to scientists, policy makers, society, and industrial actors in relevant sectors, including furniture, construction, transportation and packaging, to raise awareness on the benefits of the adhesives and coatings developed from bark components. The exploitation of results from SuperBark will have a measurable economic impact on the consortium companies and will also translate into clear environmental and health impacts to the society, in al

user: Describe how 'Algebraic Covering Codes Enabling Network Transmissions' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Applications of rank-metric codes arise ever more frequently in network communications problems, and yet their mathematical theory is still in its infancy. To date attention has almost exclusively focussed on very special classes of codes and their generalizations. The covering problem for rank-metric codes is largely unsolved, and is an important combinatorial research topic. For error-free paradigms, codes with low covering radius  provide efficient solutions for broadcast problems, and specifically to optimizing content delivery networks for large files distribution. Current approaches to such applications are suboptimal, while known methods to obtaining best possible performance are computationally infeasible. For error-correcting schemes, the covering radius is an important indicator of code performance, as it measures the number of errors that can be corrected in network transmissions.We propose to develop a mathematical theory of covering codes for the rank metric. We will obtain bounds on the covering radius of an arbitrary rank-metric code, as well as special classes of codes. We will develop the fundamental tools required to pioneer this theory, offering scope for researchers of Algebraic Coding Theory, as well as combinatorial objects useful for Engineering applications. We will also investigate symmetric rank-metric codes, focussing on their distance distributions. These codes have a very rich combinatorial structure.The combined expertise of the Applied Algebra group at UCD, along with the methods developed by the applicant in his PhD, will propel the project to achieve its objectives. The potential scientific impact is high, given the newness and combinatorial hardness of the topic, its importance for network communications, and exponentially increasing da

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Search for the sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays with the Pierre Auger Observatory: from Auger South data to seamless integration of trigger and aperture for Auger North for full-sky coverage' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The key to identifying the sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays lies in the detection of anisotropies in the distribution of arrival directions. This proposal regards the study of anisotropies with the Pierre Auger Observatory, an international project with significant European contribution, consisting of two matching cosmic ray detectors, one in each hemisphere, for full sky coverage. The Southern Auger Observatory in Argentina is taking data and approaching completion in 2008 with an instrumented area of 3000 km2; the design and R&D phase for the Northern Auger Observatory to be built in Colorado, USA, with an area of 10000 km2, is in progress. The present proposal provides a bridge between the two parts of the Auger project through the study of the exposure for searching the sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. On one aspect of the work, the proponent will conduct analysis of anisotropies, at small and large scales, with the data available from the Southern Observatory. These analysis will start from the study of the trigger, aperture and stability of the detector. Then, based on this, the proponent will work on the project of a new trigger for the Northern Observatory to realize a seamless exposure with respect to the Southern Observatory. Such a proposal will allow the applicant, an experienced researcher in the field of cosmic ray data analysis, to diversify her skills by applying them to a novel detector, and to acquire new competences from the experience of data processing of the Auger group at the host institution. This group also has an important role in the design of the electronics for the Northern Observatory and in the layout of the Auger North proposal. The group’s recognized expertise in the project of instrumentation for astroparticle physics a

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'SCALing by means of Ubiquitous Storage' (SCALUS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Storage research increasingly gains importance based on the tremendous need for storage capacity and I/O performance. Over the past years, several trends have considerably changed the design of storage systems, starting from new storage media over the widespread use of storage area networks, up to grid and cloud storage concepts. Furthermore, to achieve cost efficiency, storage systems are increasingly assembled from commodity components. Thus, we are in the middle of an evolution towards a new storage architecture made of many decentralized commodity components with increased processing and communication capabilities, which requires the introduction of new concepts to benefit from the resulting architectural opportunities. The consortium of this Marie Curie Initial Training Network (MCITN) „SCALing by means of Ubiquitous Storage (SCALUS)“ aims at elevating education, research, and development inside this exciting area with a focus on cluster, grid, and cloud storage. The vision of this MCITN is to deliver the foundation for ubiquitous storage systems, which can be scaled in arbitrary directions (capacity, performance, distance, security) Providing ubiquitous storage will become a major demand for future IT systems and leadership in this area can have significant impact on European competitiveness in IT technology. To get this leadership, it is necessary to invest into storage education and research and to bridge the current gap between local storage, cluster storage, grid storage, and cloud storage. The consortium will proceed into the direction by building the first interdisciplinary teaching and research network on storage issues. It consists of top European institutes and companies in storage and cluster technology, building a demanding but rewarding interdisciplina

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Configuration management experiment' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The objective of the experiment is to evaluate the benefits of using a formal change control system supported by configuration management tools. The proposer, Sysdeco Innovation AS, is a vendor of software development tools, for the 4GL and GIS markets. Sysdeco's products are available on many operating systems, windowing systems, databases, and networks. With many delivered configurations - the numbers of licensees are in the ten thousands - it is important to have a change control system which ensures that the products are correctly configured. It is important to be able to reconstruct an old configuration, correct reported problems, and control the propagation of changes to other configurations. When configuration errors are detected in the system, often a number of people are involved such as sales persons, customer support engineers and developers. The costs are accordingly high.THE EXPERIMENTA formal change control system (Clarecase) will be implemented, including organisational changes and more formal processes. Change control will be applied to all parts of the products, e.g. source code, object code, executable code, documentation, media, test plans, test data, make files, compilers used.Sysdeco has a software experience database that will be used to measure and validate the effects of the experiment. The data in the database will be studied and several metrics will be defined and used to measure the effect of the experiment.The formal change control system will be used in the development of the next release of a specified product and in the maintenance of existing products. Measurements will be done and compared with the data from the existing database.EXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCEIn order to keep ahead of the competition the vendor must continually improve i

user: Draft an impact statement for 'DigitalPreservationEurope', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Electronic resources are a central part of our cultural and intellectual heritage, but this material is at risk. Digital memory needs constant management, using new techniques and processes, to contain such risks as technological obsolescence. Risk begins before the digital record is created and continues for as long as the digital object needs to be retained. Digital preservation is too big an issue for individual institutions or even sectors to address independently. Concerted action at both national and international level is required. DigitalPreservationEurope, building on the earlier successful work of ERPANET, facilitates pooling of the complementary expertise that exists across the academic research, cultural, public administration and industry sectors in Europe. <br/>DigitalPreservationEurope (DPE) fosters collaboration and synergies between many existing national initiatives across the European Research Area. DPE addresses the need to improve coordination, cooperation and consistency in current activities to secure effective preservation of digital materials. DPE's project partners lead work to: (a) raise the profile of digital preservation; (b) promote the ability of Member States acting together to add value to digital preservation activities across Europe; (c) use cross-sectoral cooperation to avoid redundancy and duplication of effort; (d) ensure auditable and certificated standards for digital preservation processes are selected and introduced; (e) facilitate skills development through training packages; (f) enable relevant research coordination and exchange; (g) develop and promote a research agenda roadmap;  and (h)  help both citizens and specialist professionals recognise the central role that digital preservation plays in their lives and work.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'The Revival of Salve Regina. Medieval Marian chants from Aveiro: musical sources, gender specific context and performance' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Opening new sound horizons goes hand in hand with retracing the history of the spiritual traditions in which monasteries have played a decisive role in the medieval functioning of Europe. The Dominican order, whose origins lie in the Iberian Peninsula, is a particularly pertinent example of a pan-European monastic community. The project RESALVE focusses on the musical universe of the Dominican female convent of Aveiro as reflected in the earliest surviving collection of Dominican chant books in Portugal, produced by the sisters themselves between 1461 and 1525. Despite its written transmission, the Dominican repertoire, with its particularly beautiful Marian chants, can be considered ‘intangible cultural heritage’, mirroring local practices being transmitted from generation to generation through constant recreation. The antiphon Salve regina with its specific Dominican melody will be used as an example to examine the multiple use of Marian chants as liturgical, votive, intercessional or processional chants. Salve from late medieval Aveiro will be the starting point of an innovative and multidisciplinary approach illustrating the variability of sources and melodies and providing unique insight into a specific female chant repertoire through the application of musicological and historical methods. Aveiro’s sources will be explored as carriers of material and immaterial cultural heritage from two different perspectives: that of the music historian and that of the artist-performer. As this chant tradition has nearly disappeared today in Dominican communities, artistic performances and recordings are vital for its preservation. That is the reason why the candidate and the professional performers of her vocal ensemble Kantika want to launch a revival of Salve Regina and other

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Precision nutrition approach for increasing fibre intake and health using microbiota-matched sustainable fibre sources' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

The consumption of dietary fibres (DF) should be increased to comply with the dietary guidelines and fuel various beneficial metabolites produced by the gut microbiota, such as short chain fatty acids (SCFA). Microbiota also produces gases that, in sensitive persons including irritable bowel syndrome patients (IBS), trigger disturbing and at worst disabling gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, leading to the avoidance of fibre-rich foods. The gas formation patterns and amounts are highly individual and interrelated to GI parameters such as gut pH and transit rate.  FIBRE-MATCH develops and validates a concept to match DF types to gut microbiome subtypes for optimal metabolic output. The project identifies major DF-metabolising microbiome types prevalent in Europeans using existing metagenomic, dietary and GI symptom data, considering also endogenous glycans. Representative microbiomes and DF will be characterized in vitro to identify metabolic phenotypes. DF combinations yielding an optimal gas to SCFA ratio in vitro will be used to develop fermented food prototypes for proof-of-concept studies in healthy volunteers and IBS patients, to study whether consumption of the microbiome-tailored food improves GI symptoms and IBS markers compared to unmatched fibre, using breath monitoring, metagenome, metabolome and glycan analyses. Biosamples from the healthy subjects will be used to evaluate the effects of DF on risk markers of noncommunicable diseases using metabolomics approaches. A novel database of chemical composition of DF in high-fibre foods will be developed to enable analysis of nutrition-microbiome interactions at functional and molecular level. FIBRE-MATCH fits to the Precision Nutrition Challenge portfolio as it develops fundamental knowledge, capabilities and resourc
