user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'TOWARDS A NEW ZERO FOOD WASTE MINDSET BASED ON HOLISTIC ASSESSMENT' (ToNoWaste) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Food waste is a major problem: around 88 million tonnes of food is wasted annually along the EU supply chain, from primary production to consumption, with associated costs of €143 billion. The associated environmental impact is also huge: global food loss and waste is equivalent to 8-10% of total anthropogenic GHG emissions and costs around $1 trillion per year, and 30% of agricultural land is wasted. The situation may be even worse, as statistics indicate that 70% of all food lost or wasted by humans may be unrecorded because it originates from primary production or is used as animal feed. In parallel, the assessment of this problem remains unresolved, not only because it is extremely complex due to the lack of open access data and the absence of a standard methodology for comprehensive assessment in real food systems, but also because it affects the commitment of private entities that need to assess the cost-effectiveness and sustainability of food waste prevention and reduction (FWPR) solutions in order to act. ToNoWaste is a 48-month project in which 21 institutions from 7 countries collaborate to overcome this challenge with a multi-stakeholder and interdisciplinary approach that considers not only agronomic, economic, environmental and business model challenges, but also other cross-cutting aspects such as psychology, law and social innovation to fight also against gender and social inequalities. ToNoWaste will inspire market actors to use science and evidence-based assessment tools and data to make better decisions towards more sustainable food production and consumption patterns. It starts from research on what makes the best decision regarding FWPR actions in the fresh food value chain. It is an open innovation ecosystem designed to leverage previous findings f

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Fluxes of Greenhouse Gases in the Northwestern Region of the Black Sea Coastalzone: Influence of the Danube River System.' (1994-1998) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Foreseen ResultsBy modelling the possible physical, chemical and biological changes to the delta and its ecosystem, a number of scenarios can be constructed which can reflect the future evolution of this endangered ecosystem. By combining this with the greenhouse gas flux data obtained through this project, it will be possible to predict the changing pattern of gas fluxes for each scenario locked at.The data can then be extrapolated to similar settings around the Black Sea and beyond, to evaluate the global impact of changes to delta ecosystems of this type.Emissions of greenhouse gases from the Black Sea, Danube Delta and adjacent coastal zone have been recorded in previous and ongoing international projects such as IGBP, EROS 2000 and EROS 21. The changes in the fluxes of gases from this region can be related to changes in the physical, biological and chemical parameters of the delta and coastal zone, which responds to both local changes caused by changes in sediment and nutrient input through the Danube and related rivers, and physical changes to the delta caused by large scale land engineering works such as land reclamation, as well as to global effects.This project is designed to record the actual fluxes of greenhouse gases (eg. CO2, NH4, NO2) from different settings using state of the art in situ multi-gas sampling technology. The CO2 data can be used to determine the Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE), when used in combination with land and vegetation maps based on remote sensing and airborne geophysics and which can be scaled up to give a picture of the current fluxes of greenhouse gases across the Delta and adjacent coastal zone.The project is divided into a number of tasks and sub-tasks, carefully formulated to yield a high amount of new date which will ensure the c

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Efferent modulation of auditory sensitivity in mosquitoes: From auditory transduction to swarming behaviour' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Hearing in mosquitoes is crucial for mating partner recognition. Within mating swarms, males hear the wing beat of females and chase them to copulate. Despite the importance of this behaviour, very little is known about the molecular mechanisms involved. I and my co-workers have recently discovered an auditory efferent system innervating the mosquito hearing organ, the Johnston's Organ (JO) that releases the biogenic amines octopamine and serotonin and modulates the auditory function. However, we still do not know how this efferent system modulates hearing in the context of swarming. Given the intimate connection between hearing and swarming in mosquitoes, and considering that biogenic amines have been described in other insects to induce swarming, I hypothesize that biogenic amines induce mosquitoes to aggregate into swarms and upregulate their auditory sensitivity to increase male mosquito attraction to females. My objectives are to use a multidisciplinary approach, including molecular biology, physiological and behavioural methods, to study if biogenic amines increase the auditory sensitivity during swarming and to assess the potential of disrupting biogenic amine signalling to impair mosquito hearing and swarming. To this end, I will first study temporal variations of biogenic amine signalling pathways in the mosquito JO during the swarming period. I will then generate mosquito mutants to impair biogenic amine signalling and subsequently use these mutants to assess their auditory function and swarming behaviour phenotypes aiming at defining a direct involvement of biogenic amines in mosquito hearing and mating. We believe that our work will lead to developing novel mosquito control tools. Firstly, improving our knowledge on mosquito hearing can lead to develop novel

assistant: **Objectives**

Approaching its 10th anniversary in 2025, the hugely popular European Researchers’ Night will return in 2024/25 to the Kiel region as a true science festival with a new scope in terms of geography, duration and activities. Not only will it bring together all of Kiel region’s 12 research organisations comprising all academic disciplines showcasing their scientists and work to the public, but will also include for the first time activities organised by our European twinned cities from France and Poland in close collaboration with the European University of the Seas (SEA-EU). Another novelty will be an extended programme of pre-events as well as the Rent-a-Scientist and Rent-a-Science-Film formats across the region’s four major cities and the biggest sea resort (Kiel, Rendsburg, Eckernförde, Plön, Laboe). This will enhance awareness of the project and its messages beyond the region as well as attract more visitors to the NIGHT itself. Finally, the NIGHT will showcase for the first time not only the careers of researchers in and outside of academia, but also employment opportunities in research for non-academic research support staff to ensure the long-term viability of the research sector in our region. SCIENCE4FUTURE will focus on the locally-relevant, internationally significant and interdisciplinary themes of climate change, mobility, health and growth as well as Europe.Through more than 100 different activities in pre-events and during the NIGHT in Kiel region, the general public,young people and educators will learn about the the researchers’ work, their careers and their achievements. With the support of over 40 German, French and Polish institutions, partners from SEA-EU from the public, private and non-governmental sector and the active involvement of over 300 rese

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Retrofitting equipment for efficient use of variable feedstock in metal making processes' (REVaMP) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

In the European process industries large amounts of energy and resources are used to produce millions of tonnes of materials each year. Especially in metal making processes, metallic scraps from end of life goods are recycled and used as secondary raw materials in the processes. Usage of scrap is both ecologically and commercially beneficial, since it reduces the depletion of natural resources like virgin ores and avoids landfills with waste material. Today even more important is that the energy consumption and the CO2 emissions of the reduction processes of metal ores can be reduced or even totally avoided when using recycled materials as feedstock. However, the metal production facilities are facing an increasing variability in material and energy feedstock.   To cope with this challenge, existing metal production plants need to be retrofitted with appropriate sensors for scrap analysis and furnace operation, to cope with the varying conditions of the feedstock regarding materials and energy. Furthermore, the selection of the optimal feedstock in terms of material and energy efficiency has to be improved by application of appropriate process control and decision support tools. Also solid scrap preheating systems can increase the energy efficiency of the melting processes. To monitor and control the process behaviour in an optimal way, model-based software tools have to be developed and applied.The main objective of the REVaMP project is to develop, adapt and apply novel retrofitting technologies to cope with the increasing variability and to ensure an efficient use of the feedstock in terms of materials and energy. This will be exemplarily demonstrated within three different use cases from the metal making industry. Due to the industrial relevance, the use cases were

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Children of Empires and European Postmemories' (MEMOIRS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

MEMOIRS focuses on the intergenerational memories of the children and grandchildren of those involved in the decolonization processes of colonies held by France, Portugal and Belgium. Through interviews of this second and third generation, and a comparative analysis of the cultures influenced by the postmemory of the colonial wars and the end of empire, Europe's postcolonial heritage will be reinterrogated, and a new understanding of the contemporary continent will be developed. At the heart of the project is a desire to comprehend the effects of Europe's postimperial diversity through postmemories of colonial praxis. The project is interdisciplinary, bringing together specialists from literary and cultural studies, arts, history, sociology and migration studies. MEMOIRS aims to maximize the impact of its findings through broad web, open-access publications and an itinerant artistic exhibit that captures multiple aspects of the representations of postmemory, and fosters a meaningful North-South dialogue.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Bordering, Political Landscapes and Social Arenas: Potentials and Challenges of Evolving Border Concepts in a post-Cold War World' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

In order to gauge its significance, conceptual change in the study of borders must be seen in relation to fundamental social, economic and geopolitical transformations that have taken place in the past decades. In addition, major paradigmatic shifts in scientific debate, and in the social sciences in particular, must also be considered. Recognising the close interrelationships between social change and paradigm shifts, the EUBORDERSCAPES project will analyse the evolving concept of borders in terms of a mutually linked emergence of “post-national”, “post-colonial”, “post-modernist” and “post-Communist” strands of inquiry. State borders are the frame of reference, rather than ethnographic/anthropological boundaries. However, this approach emphasises the social significance and subjectivities of state borders while critically interrogating “objective” categories of state territoriality and international relations. The research proposed here will, furthermore, not only be focused at the more general, at times highly abstract, level of conceptual change. This approach will also allow us to compare and contrast how different and often contested conceptualisations of state borders (in terms of their political, social, cultural and symbolic significance) resonate in concrete contexts at the level of everyday life.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Diffuse phosphorus input to surface waters - new concepts in removal, recycling and management (P-TRAP)' (P-TRAP), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Flux of phosphate (P) from agricultural areas to surface waters is wasting a resource which is becoming scarce and is in conflict with the principles of a circular economy. Enhanced loading of surface water with P is the main cause for eutrophication and presents a key challenge in meeting the objectives of the EU Water Framework Directive. P-TRAP targets both problems and develops new methods and approaches to trap P in drained agricultural areas and in the sediments of eutrophic lakes. Trapping of P involves the application of iron(Fe)-containing by-products from drinking water treatment. P-TRAP aspires the ideas of a circular economy and aims at recovering the retained P in agricultural systems. Novel microbial technologies will be developed to convert P-loaded Fe-minerals into marketable fertilizers whose suitability will be evaluated. The new P-TRAP technologies have in common that they rely on the naturally strong connection between P and Fe and the innovative P-TRAP strategies will be underpinned by process-orientated investigations on the behavior of P during the transformation of Fe minerals. The latter are key in trapping and recycling of P in agricultural systems and lakes. P-TRAP establishes a framework of partners from multiple science and engineering disciplines. Integration of non-academic partners from various stakeholder groups into the P-TRAP consortium paves the way for direct implementation of the acquired knowledge. P-TRAP provides Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) an environment for conducting innovative scientific research by using state-of-the-art methodology. Training through P-TRAP increases the ESRs’ mobility between sectors, cultures, and nations and strengthens their responsibility to exploiting scientific results for societal and economical be

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Securing Internet Routing: Economics vs. Network Security' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The Internet is made up of over 35,000 smaller networks, owned by different economic entities (e.g., AT&T, Google). The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) establishes routes between these networks and can be regarded as the “glue” that holds today’s Internet together.BGP was designed at a time when the Internet was meant to provide connectivitybetween largely trusted and cooperative parties. However, times have changed and today’s BGPis notoriously vulnerable to attacks. To remedy this, secure variants of BGP have been proposed to prevent the propagation of bogus routing information. Unfortunately, despite a decade of extensive work the problem of securing the Internet’s interdomain routing is far from solved and deployment of a secure routing protocol is not on the horizon.It is now clear that the two biggest impediments on the path to secure Internet routing are:1. Which secure protocol to deploy? There are still lingering disagreementsabout which of the security-enhanced variants of BGP should be deployed.2. How to create economic incentives for deployment? Even once an agreement about which secure BGP variant to deploy will be reached, how can we get the ball rolling on protocol deployment?My proposed research aims to inform this discussion and will consist of three main components: (1) investigating the security guarantees of the major proposed secure BGP variants; (2) exploring the vulnerabilities of the routing system to new kinds of attacks; and (3) designing market mechanisms for large-scale deployment of a secure routing protocol.To achieve these goals, I plan to combine theoretical analysis with extensive simulations on real-life data.

user: Explain how 'Modeling and forecasting supply networks using functional time series and mathematical programming' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

In NETOPT, we will develop an innovative high-frequency forecasting model that analyses complex spatial and temporal dynamics in large-scale networks under demand and supply constraints. Using supply networks as an example, NETOPT aims to model and forecast large-scale network flows using a Functional Time Series (TS) and Mathematical Programming (MP) approach. The network model proposed in NETOPT can optimize decision planning and efficient scheduling by reducing financial and technical risks in transmission and distribution networks, such as gas and water networks. To demonstrate the practical effectiveness of our new approach, we will implement models to describe and predict hourly gas flows for several days ahead in the German high-pressure gas transmission network using real-world data.  Efficient prediction and interpretation of the complex dynamics in transport and distribution networks is a crucial component of an intelligent decision support system that helps to reach the climate targets of the European Green Deal in a fair, cost-effective, and competitive way.
