user: Explain how 'OPTIMALMINE: slope optimal design for a paradigm shift in mining efficiency, environmental friendliness and resilience' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

The European Union is currently addressing challenges related to the supply of essential raw materials that are used for clean technologies (e.g. lithium for EV batteries, copper for electrification) and everyday life (e.g. metals for iPhones). This includes policy initiatives such as the raw materials list and the Critical Raw Materials Act (European Commission, 2019) which sets 10% of the EU's annual needs for extraction as a benchmark to be reached by 2030. Reaching this target will require an increase in mining efficiency to make currently unprofitable mine deposits economically viable. Mining is responsible for around 8% of the global carbon footprint with a very large part of carbon footprint due to mining activities, hence innovations that reduce the amount of waste rock to be excavated in turn lead to substantial reductions of the overall mine carbon footprint. Topological slope optimisation solves the problem by introducing two paradigm shifts: 1.Overall steeper, hence more efficient, pit walls without compromising safety.2.Automated pit wall design.The proposed solution focuses on a highly innovative approach for open-pit mines: excavating pit wall slopes according to their topological optimal shape instead of the established current practice of designing pit walls of constant inclination within each rock layer. The methodology developed by Prof. Utili (UNEW) finds the optimal non-planar slope geometry for a specified target Factor of Safety (FoS), which is significantly steeper than any planar one (see Figure 1). Topological slope optimisation has the potential to change the open pit mining industry: if this methodology was adopted by 50% of >5,000 mines worldwide and considering the average financial and environmental gains obtained from five mine case studi

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Optimal System-Mix Of flexibility Solutions for European electricity' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Six TSOs, eleven research partners, together with sixteen industry (manufacturers, solution providers) and market (producers, ESCo) players address, through a holistic approach, the identification and development of flexibilities required to enable the Energy Transition to high share of renewables. This approach captures synergies across needs and sources of flexibilities, such as multiple services from one source, or hybridizing sources, thus resulting in a cost-efficient power system. OSMOSE proposes four TSO-led demonstrations (RTE, REE, TERNA and ELES) aiming at increasing the techno-economic potential of a wide range of flexibility solutions and covering several applications, i.e.: synchronisation of large power systems by multiservice hybrid storage; multiple services provided by the coordinated control of different storage and FACTS devices; multiple services provided by grid devices, large demand-response and RES generation coordinated in a smart management system; cross-border sharing of flexibility sources through a near real-time cross-border energy market.    The demonstrations are coordinated with and supported by simulation-based studies which aim (i) to forecast the economically optimal mix of flexibility solutions in long-term energy scenarios (2030 and 2050) and (ii) to build recommendations for improvements of the existing market mechanisms and regulatory frameworks, thus enabling the reliable and sustainable development of flexibility assets by market players in coordination with regulated players.       Interoperability and improved TSO/DSO interactions are addressed so as to ease the scaling up and replication of the flexibility solutions. A database is built for the sharing of real-life techno-economic performances of electrochemical storage device

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Ultra-Fast Molecular Filovirus Diagnostics - Sofia ref.: 115844', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

There is an urgent need for fast and accurate diagnostic tests in the current Ebola crisis. The rapid diagnosis of EVD during early and late stage of infection is a decisive step for risk assessment and for guidance to physicians to take the necessary decisions to limit the spread of the infection, and to safely nurse the infected patients. While fast and easy-to-use tests usually rely on immuno-diagnostic approaches, they typically lack high sensitivity and specificity. The gold standard for accurate diagnostics, (Real-Time) PCR, however, is limited in terms of processing time, high costs, and in most cases also in terms of ease of use and the need of special laboratory facilities.The aim of this project is to provide an ultra-fast and accurate molecular diagnostic instrument that can perform a molecular Ebola test within 10-15 minutes. Patients, suspected of Ebola Virus Disease (EBD), due to fever and/or other clinical signs, could be rapidly and accurately tested at the Point-of-Care by withdrawal of blood, or less invasive fluids, such as saliva or urine.The core technology of this proposal is based on laser-heated nanoparticles (Laser PCR), overcoming the time-limiting step of heating and cooling the reaction sample in conventional PCR allowing for drastically reduced turn-around times. The project partners (GNA, INMI, MUB, EMG) have the competence to integrate sample preparation with virus-binding magnetic particles, ultra-fast molecular diagnostics with Laser PCR, test the system in a biosafety level 4 laboratory in Rome, Italy, and thoroughly conduct field testing in a medical care centre in West Africa (Sierra Leone).A tentative Ebola Laser PCR assay has already been set up, detecting 10 target copies of synthetic DNA oligos, corresponding to the Ebola genome s

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Open Science Impact Pathways' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

PathOS aims to identify and quantify the Key Impact Pathways of Open Science relating to the research system and its interrelations with economic and societal actors. PathOS will enable a new understanding of OS impacts and their causal mechanisms through its workplan encompassing actions to synthesise and structure current evidence, development of new methods and tools for measuring impact, iterative pilot-testing via in-depth case studies, innovative dissemination and networking, and co-creation synthesis activities culminating in policy recommendations. This is pivotal in order to develop effective OS policy in the EU. It will do so by collecting concrete evidence of the causal effects of OS by studying the pathways of OS practices, from input to output, outcome and impact, including the consideration of enabling factors and key barriers. Impacts and pathways will be developed in particular in the three areas of science, society and economy. By investigating, measuring and comparing its costs and benefits together with its pathways, PathOS will (i) bring a better understanding of the implications of open science for science, economy and society, (ii) provide recommendations to policy makers and other actors in the R&I ecosystem as to how and to what extent open science should be promoted in a balanced way, and (iii) develop innovative tools and methods using a big data to augment traditional ones for studying the causal effects of open science. This will enable evidence-based Open Science policy prioritisation, maximum OS impact, and increased R&I capacity in EU research systems.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Nanomagnets by Self Organisation'.

assistant: **Objectives**

This project aims at developing a technology for the production of highly ordered patterns of nano-magnets, based on self-organized processes. The dimensions of the individual magnetic dot structures in the nanometer regime promise ultrahigh densities of single domain magnets usable for magnetic ultra-high density storage.Two promising self-organized fabrication approaches of ordered nano-magnet arrays are developed in this project. The first approach uses a multi-layered structure, consisting of a thin (<5nm) magnetic layer, embedded between two GaSb-semiconductor layers. The top GaSb layer is eroded in a normal incidence ion sputtering process, producing a hexagonally ordered dot pattern. As the ion erosion process proceeds into the metal layer a hexagonal ordered metallic nano-pattern emerges with dimensions in the range of 15 to 100nm.The second approach based on SiGe substrates, which are covered by a checkerboard-like pattern of pyramids, formed during controlled growth of SiGe-alloys. Deposition of magnetic material under normal or grazing incidence results in a formation of a pattern of magnetic islands.The size of the individual pyramidal structures can be varied in the lower nanometer range. In addition to the process know-how for the fabrication of these magnetic nanodots, a large body of nano-analytic investigation will be performed, concerning magnetic behavior, structure and composition of the dots, accompanied by the development and tribological characterization of protective coatings.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Non-coding RNAs and their role in developmental networks' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

With the availability of new technologies, it is now feasible to complete regulatory networks controlling complex developmental programs and understand their logic, which can improve considerably the success of diagnosis and therapies for diseases related to development or cancer. However, in order to fully understand how gene expression is regulated, epigenetic aspects need to be identified and integrated with genetic levels of regulatory networks. While the number of protein-coding genes has little variation between species, the extent of non-coding sequences is highly correlated with organismal complexity, suggesting that the expansion of non-coding RNAs (ncRNA) help to provide the regulatory potential to generate organismal diversity and complexity.  Circumstantial evidence implicates long ncRNAs as important players in development, yet there is currently no thorough study of their role within a developing embryo. Our main objective is to conduct a detailed analysis of ncRNA expression and assess their role in vivo, taking advantage of Drosophila mesoderm development as a very well established model system.  We will perform the first comprehensive analysis of ncRNA expression in a specific tissue during its development taking a genomic and bioinformatics approach. In addition, since long non-coding RNAs often recruit chromatin-remodeling complexes, we will assess the molecular complexes of selected long ncRNA using biochemical mass-spec based approach.  Finally, for a number of selected ncRNA, we will assess their function and requirement for mesoderm development, taking advantage of Drosophila genetics. This project will consolidate the current prestige of the host institution on the intersection between genomics and developmental biology by incorporating ncRNAs to

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'GridLab - A Grid Application Toolkit and Testbed'.

assistant: **Concept**

GridLab (Grid Application Toolkit and Testbed) is a combined research and development project to develop an innovative and flexible grid application toolkit, which will provide core, easy to use functionality through a carefully constructed set of generic APIs for both simulation codes and Grid software. This toolkit will contain independent modules for handling many different aspects of Grid programming. Grid-enabled applications will be tested on real testbeds constructed by linking a heterogeneous collection of supercomputers and other resources spanning Europe and the US. The primary testbed environment for the project was created last year by the Applications Working Group of the European Grid Forum for demonstrations at SC2000.Objectives:Two important aspects of Grid Computing technology development which have been largely ignored, but which we plan to address, form the basis of this proposal: co-development of infrastructure and applications and dynamic grid computing. We will include these elements in developing innovative, yet practical, Grid computing technologies, which will then be immediately and easily adopted and exploited by applications from many different research and engineering fields.Specific key objectives of our proposal are:(i) design and develop a Grid Application Toolkit (GAT),(ii) simultaneously enhance real applications for the Grid,(iii) test Grid-enabled applications on real testbeds spanning Europe.Work description:We propose a balanced program with co-development of a range of Grid applications alongside infrastructure development, working on transatlantic testbeds of varied supercomputers and clusters. This practical approach ensures that the developed software truly enables easy and efficient use of Grid resources in a real user environ

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Renovating the Existing Buildings Environment through the Combination of Circular economy and the Add-ons’ strategy' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The actual investment gap in the renovation sector is due to the fact that high investments are required up-front, generally characterised by a high degree of risk and long payback times. Sustainable approaches based upon linear economy principle are inadequate to effectively answer to the energy emergency of the existing buildings: a shift towards circular models is urgent. REBECCA aims at demonstrating the attractiveness of circular, concerted and innovative actions capable of  unlocking public and private funds, fill the energy efficiency investment gap and ultimately contribute to re-launch the construction and renovation market. To do so, the research looks at the residential building stock and develops renovation strategies and techniques based upon Circular models for Renovation (CiR) and Circular Add-ons (CiA), intended as one (or a set of) volumetric additions – like aside or façade addictions, rooftop extensions or even an entire new building construction - that increase the real estate residual value of the existing buildings thanks to significant energy and architectural transformations. Through a case-study based approach, REBECCA will prove that building renovations can be achieved at zero cost (through self-financing real estate models), zero waste (with virtuous circular waste/material management paths) and zero energy (by reducing the energy consumptions and integrating renewable energy sources). In synthesis, REBECCA is proposing to introduce a new paradigm of circularity in the building renovation practice, which looks at reducing the pay-back time of the interventions, strengthening the key investors’ confidence, increasing quality and attractiveness of the existing buildings’ stock and, finally, reaching a concrete market acceleration towards the ta

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Conservation Marketing as a tool for the sustainable preservation of the Maltese cultural heritage' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

One of the essential requirements for the effective heritage preservation is ensuring its sustainability. Achieving the latter depends to a large extent on a close interdisciplinary collaboration of professionals from different fields (conservators, architects, arts historians, lawyers, managers, economists et al.) This research project aims at supplementing the range of the fields' auxiliary to heritage preservation by the marketing science. In particular it aims at identifying marketing tools and mechanisms in the area of conservation and restoration of cultural heritage and, consequently, at developing a complex marketing concept for conservation services in order to enhance the sustainability of the Maltese national system for cultural heritage preservation.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'EuPRAXIA Preparatory Phase Project' (EuPRAXIA).

assistant: **Innovation**

EuPRAXIA is a distributed, compact and innovative accelerator facility based on plasma technology. It has been selected for the 2021 Update of the ESFRI Roadmap. In its first phase, its consortium of 51 institutes and industry partners will construct an electron-beam-driven plasma accelerator in the metropolitan area of Rome, thus bringing innovation, potential for spin-off companies, state-of-the art scientific applications and a vibrant international user community to the middle of Italy. In its second phase, EuPRAXIA will build one laser-driven plasma accelerator at a site to be chosen between several options in Europe. EuPRAXIA will serve users in ultra-fast science, e.g. on high-resolution medical imaging, deeply penetrating positron annihilation spectroscopy for materials and with Europe’s most southern free-electron laser (FEL). It will offer fascinating capabilities for research on biomolecules, viruses and microscopic processes. EuPRAXIA will thus be a transformative step in the development of ultra-compact accelerators and applications. The Preparatory Phase project EuPRAXIA-PP will prepare its full implementation.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Preparation of a crm: pesticides in water. feasibility study (WARP)' (WARP).

assistant: **Concept**

The objective of the project is a feasibility study to produce and certify a reference material Pesticides in Water". A completely new method of operation for matrix RMs for pollutants in water is proposed. Pesticides are stabilized in a dry matrix (pill). When used a pill is dissolved in water. A well-defined water solution is thus reconstituted, ready for use as (C)RM. After a Technical Meeting1, critical aspects of the preparation are tested. To ensure traceability, a Protocol on the use is prepared. A test batch (600 units) is produced, and tested for homogeneity and stability. This batch is used in an inter-comparison study, involving 16 (water) laboratories. After evaluation, a Technical Meeting 2 on the results will reveal whether future production of such a CRM will be feasible."
