user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Sensors Towards Advanced Monitoring and Control of Gas Turbine Engines'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The headline objective of this project is to develop a suite of advanced sensors, instrumentation and related systems in order to contribute to the development of the next generation of green and efficient gas turbine engines (AAT.2012.1.1-3&4).Sensors are a vital enabling technology for gas turbines and are critical to validation of design tools, new products, engine control, and health monitoring. The limitations of sensors in terms of survival temperature, accuracy, stability, and degradation limit where measurements are made during development and the operating ceiling of the gas turbine. Engines are run with safety margin in order to safeguard components against mechanical failure. Consequently, they are not run at their most optimal, which impacts overall efficiency. For example, a 10C uncertainty on turbine entry temperature changes the specific fuel consumption by 0.2%. Also a 0.2mm change in turbine tip clearance changes the specific fuel consumption by 0.4%. It is believed that with better sensing techniques, in excess of 500,000 tonnes of kerosene could be saved per annum, which equates to a CO2 saving of over 1.5 millions tonnes. Despite some successes in recent research, it has become clear that the capability gaps are not closing quickly enough. Further research in to sensors and instrumentation is, therefore, absolutely essential if the capability gaps are to be filled at an adequate rate.The STARGATE project intends to target these critical gaps and create the biggest impact possible within the constraints of the Call budget. The project will develop a range of advanced new sensors for high temperature gas path, surface, and structural measurements. The project also contains some detailed studies on wireless sensing. The sensors will be validated using b

assistant: **Concept**

Research objectives and content mediators, including lipid mediators, cytokines, neuropeptides and nitric oxide. The mechanisms of increased mediator production in asthma are not well understood. Our primary objective is to elucidate the mechanisms involved in increased mediator production in asthma in order to understand the pathophysiology of this increasingly common condition and to lead to the development of new and more specific therapies. We have adopted a multidisciplinary molecule-to-man approach as the questions and scope of the research is complex and needs to involve several groups. We have brought together leading European research groups in the field of inflammatory mediators to address this objective. Major research tasks include elucidation of the factors that regulate expression of lipid mediators (leukotrienes, prostaglandins and platelet-activating factor) and their receptors in airway and inflammatory cells, experimental models of asthma and in normal and asthmatic airways. We will also study regulation of expression of lymphokines and chemokines that orchestrate eosinophilic inflammation in asthmatic airways, sensory neuropeptides and their receptors and the enzyme that generates nitric oxide, using the same approaches. Establishment of a network of investigators will allow us to study the interactions between different mediators, by taking advantage of the different assays and technologies available amongst the partners. A unifying theme to this project is the idea that there are common molecular mechanisms leading to increased expression of the genes responsible for the synthesis and effects (receptors) of multiple inflammatory mediators. For example, pro-inflammatory cytokines increase the expression of enzymes involved in the arachidonic acid cas

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Multi-coRe, multi-level, WDM-enAbled embedded optical enGine for Terabit board-to-board and rack-to-rack parallel optics' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Data centers are becoming the hot spots of internet, and content providers request a technology for practical and cost-effective upgrade to Tb/s capacities. MIRAGE is an industry-driven photonic integration project that aims to provide this technology and present a viable path to scale datarate (+640%), power (-70%) and no. of fibrer (-90%) by squeezing bulk parallel optical components into 3D integrated chips. MIRAGE will introduce new dimensions of parallelization in interconnects to gracefully upgrade capacity and density combining for the first time multi-core fiber multiplexing, coarse WDM multiplexing and multi-level modulation. To address cost, performance and volume MIRAGE relies on the strengths of Si photonics and electronics and extends it using the right synergies with established photonic integration materials (InP and glass) to provide a future-proof, upgradeable technology. MIRAGE optical board will provide efficient (2dB) vertical coupling for photonic 3D integration and compact wavelength multiplexing on 8 Si wafers. MIRAGE will exploit the efficiency of VCSEL technology to develop the first SOI-compatible 40Gb/s InP VCSELs at 1550nm and will upgrade them to 80Gb/s through simple multi-level modulation. To further address parallelization, MIRAGE will integrate the InP VCSELs in monolithic WDM arrays. Leveraging advances in single-mode multicore fiber MIRAGE aims to mitigate cabling cost and size and reduce chip area for pigtailing by developing low-cost glass multi-core interfaces with simple assembly on the SOI chip. 4-element silicon TIA and VCSEL driver arrays will be implementedfor 40 Gbaud multi-level modulation. Low-cost industry-compatible 3D assembly techniques will be optimized for high-speed electro-optic chips, bringing a >50-fold improvement

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Cooperative business models for bio-based chains in rural areas' (BRILIAN) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Aiming at increasing farmers’ income and to be fully aligned with the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) while addressing also Green Deal and Bioeconomy Strategy objectives, BRILIAN will support the adoption of sustainable cooperative business models in rural areas. These business models will enhance rural development, biodiversity preservation and climate-neutrality. For that, BRILIAN will implement a multi-actor approach for the validation of a group of Actions for the Bio Innovation (ABI) both at macro and micro level.The Actions for the Bio-Innovation are ABI 1. Forging robust rural bio-communities. ABI 2. Achieving circularity and sustainability. ABI 3. Integration of short supply chains and ABI 4. Production of value-added bioproducts. Therefore, BRILIAN innovations will allow primary producers to diversify their incomes while reducing risks. These ABI will be particularized for 3 pilots in Italy, Spain and Denmark. Within these pilots, a set of business models will be enhanced and tested for the validation of 10 value chains. 6 in Italy, 2 in Spain and 2 in Denmark.  BRILIAN pilots will make use of existing rural infrastructures but implementing adaptations to the current main processes and contractual agreements between actors. To strength that, business model design aproaches will be supported by modules dealing with logistic, organizational and sustainability factors weighted in the BRILIAN optimization toolkit, a toolkit based on complex models which will provide support for the design and optimization of biobased value chains, putting primary producers in the centre. As a result, BRILIAN will set long-term strategies for the adoption of cooperative business models in EU, facilitated by the generation of 11 key exploitable results during the project, including

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Biophysics of the cell-matrix interface' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The extracellular matrix is a critical determinant of cell structure and function, and understanding cell-matrix interactions is area of significant current interest.  However, characterizing the relationship between the matrix and cells is intractable in vivo; tools are not available to adequate manipulate matrix properties in a living organism. Thus the approach to addressing this problem that has emerged is based on engineered microenvironments, where advanced fabrication technologies from physics and engineering are used to build well-defined environments.  But even with the many technical advances in this area, a unifying conceptual framework in which to present findings is lacking.  For example, how does one compare the response of cells on surfaces with certain types of protein patterns to those on surfaces with specific topographic features?  Here we propose to advance the state of the art in using advanced nanometer scale patterning and fabrication technologies to study the relationship between topographic signals and biochemical signals in controlling cellular responses.  We propose to use focused ion beam milling to produce fibers that are organized similar to natural extracellular matrix, and combine these with patterns of proteins to which cells are known to respond.  These data will then be analyzed using a novel information theoretic framework, using a spatial information metric (the k-space information).  By varying the topographic and biochemical signals independently, we will establish how information from these two classes of signals interacts to modulate structural and functional responses of cells.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Isolation and characterisation of genes involved in regulation of vacuolar pH and their effects on flower colour' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Market research carried out by Florigene has shown that there is ademand for blue flowers which are available year-round. Currently, most blue flowers are only availabl in the summer. In most flowers no blue flower pigments are present e.g. carnation and rose. Introduction these pigments did not result in a blue flower. Preliminary results showed that vacuolar pH is the limiting factor for producing blue flowers. The aim of this project is to isolate genes through activator tagging and transposon tagging, that are involved in vacuolar pH. Gene function and gene expression will be tested by introducing the gene using sense and antisense approaches into several crops e.g. rose, carnation and pelargonium. New skills will be developed to be able to measure vacuolar pH. Generally pH measurements of flowers from different species have been determined using rude methods. This project will produce new accurate pH measurement methods. The ability to modify vacuolar pH will provide the possibility to study the effect of pH on metabolic activity as well as use this for modification of taste in fruits and vegetables.  The ultimate aim of this project to manupulate vacuolar pH and modify flower colour. The production of novel flower colours can give the flower industry in Europe a new impulse and create new jobs. This is very important specially since many jobs in the flower industry have lost to African and South American countries such as Columbia and Kenya.  The unique combination of fundamental research done by universities and institutes/hat will be tanslated by the 2 companies of the project will ensure that the skills and knowledge that will be developed in this project will give the European economy a competitive advantage.

user: Explain how 'An innovative semiochemical based tool for monitoring and control of biting midge vectors of bluetongue and Schmallenberg disease' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

This proposal responds to an urgent need to increase agricultural production by improving monitoring and control of animal diseases. This will be achieved through development of a new tool for capturing biting midges: vectors of Bluetongue and Schmallenberg disease which threaten food production across Europe. The key deliverable will be a lure that uses odours isolated from manure and urine to attract midges to a non-powered trap. This represents a major advance from the state of the art, as there is currently no suitable tool for sustainable, wide-spread monitoring of biting midges. The project is an international collaboration between a highly-talented researcher (Dr Daniel Bray, Keele University, UK) and a world-class scientist (Prof. Rickard Ignell, SLU, Sweden), which will draw on the expertise of an SME to determine how this innovation can be marketed to achieve maximum benefit across Europe.Through training and research, the project will: (a) advance the fellow’s skills in entomology through engagement with an interdisciplinary project team (b) improve the fellow’s capacity to lead research projects targeting insect disease vectors (c) produce a cost-effective trap for sustainable monitoring of biting midges (d) foster collaboration between academia and industry through translational research (e) allow the fellow to carry out a placement in industry, to understand how to work in this sector and gain entrepreneurial skills and (f) implement outreach activities which will disseminate our results to those that need them.Greater interaction with SMEs and meeting the societal challenge of sustainable food production are key aims of the Europe  2020 programme addressed by this proposal. The training and networking opportunities will advance the researcher towards his

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Trajectories in the Byzantine fabric of time: philosophical and narratological approaches to temporal (dis)order in middle Byzantium' (ByzTime).

assistant: **Innovation**

ByzTime proposes to investigate the Byzantine concept of time from the vantage point of three distinct yet interrelated literary genres: philosophical treatises, apocalyptic prophecies, and historiographical narratives. The aim is to establish new and holistic insights into the elusive fabric of time conceptions during the later middle Byzantine period (11th– 13th c.). This timeframe allows us to consider one of the most productive periods of Byzantine thought while taking into account the disparate availability of different kinds of textual sources, namely (1) philosophical treatises that discuss the notion of time and eternity, (2) medieval Greek apocalypses that describe the end of times, and (3) historiographical narratives of the Komnēnian era, which advance various temporal strategies in narrating the course of events. The philosophical treatises will be analyzed in terms of their argumentative validity, historical significance, and conceptual approaches to time, while the historiographical and prophetic material will be examined regarding the literary strategies of narrating time, aspects in narrative speed, the (ir-)regularity of verb tenses, typological layers, and temporal motifs. The diversity of the sources and the nature of the project’s goals necessitate an interdisciplinary approach that combines Byzantine history, literary criticism, palaeography, philology, philosophy, religious studies, and digital humanities. ByzTime will produce 12 deliverables, including the participation in two international conferences and the publication of six peer-reviewed articles. Among the publications will be the critical edition of five treatises by the middle Byzantine philosopher John Italos and editiones principes of three Byzantine prophecies. A scholarly symposium on
