user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Integrated solution for innovative biodegradation control of agricultural plastic mulches.' (BIOMULCH).

assistant: **Innovation**

Nowadays, mulching is an essential technique used in agriculture to satisfy the worldwide growing demand for agricultural products. It consists of covering the soil surface in order to modify climate conditions and favouring the crops. Conventional mulch is made of polyethylene plastic with important limitations: the plastic has to be removed after the harvest (time consuming, expensive & 10-20% remaining at soil) and it is difficult to be recycled due to its high contamination by ground, stones or waste, being the most part (45.2%) placed in landfills. Therefore, plastic mulches cause serious problems of environmental and economic concerns. Other developed mulch alternatives are not sufficient:  oxodegradable (based on polyethylene, are a risk of accumulation in environment) and biodegradable (do not guarantee total degradation under uncontrolled conditions and they are three times more expensive).There is a market demand to find alternatives. Our innovative product, BIOMULCH, will be a biobased mulch with controlled biodegradation (independent from temperature, humidity and soil conditions) and being cost competitive (€1,100/ha respect to €3,000/ha of polyethylene, €2,078/ha of oxodegradable and €2,150/ha of biodegradable), covering the current agriculture market needs. BIOMULCH will be commercialised as a kit and will guarantee the farmers the complete mulch film biodegradation when is exactly required by them. The mulch film will be fully degraded in a 30-40 days period with our innovative mulching technique. As a result, it is expected an important growth for consortium companies, obtaining a total turnover above €354M in 2018-2022. Also it is expected an important benefit for UE, above 759M euros by 2022, derived from savings for farmers and waste savings. BIOMULC

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Improved understanding of past climatic variability from early daily European Instrumental Sources'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Objectives : To assess correction and homogenisation protocols for early daily instrumental records and produce guidelines for the quality-assessment, correction and homogenisation of early instrumental records. To recover data; produce daily pressure and temperature series for carefully selected examples from European archives. To characterise climate variability and determine teleconnection behaviour across Europe. Brief Description of the Research Project : There is a growing interest in climate variability in Europe, not only because of the detection" issue, but also because of the realisation of the importance of the links between circulation in the North Atlantic Ocean and climate in Europe.This project intends to describe the evolution of the climate in Europe and its variability over the last quarter of a Millenium, by analysis of hitherto unexploited daily records of air temperature and pressure from a number of sites across Europe, i.e. Padova and Milan (Italy), S. Sernando/Cadiz (Spain), Brussels/Uccle (Belgium), Uppsala and Stockholm (Sweden). It intends also to augment the newly-produced series with currently available series (from England, Spain, Czech Republic, Russia) and publish all data on CD-ROM. Climatic analysis will include the following: Examination of high-frequency temperature variability (days-to-seasons) over Europe in order to test the notion of a decline in high-frequency variability as a response to anthropogenic influences. Examination of the time-behaviour of the European growing season (very important for agriculture). Analysis of extreme (high and low) temperatures (an expected response to anthropogenic effects). Time-series analysis in order to assess whether there is any evidence of quasi-regular multi-decadal oscillations (indicated

user: Describe how 'Implantable multi-contact active nerve electrode' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Mixed integrated circuit technology and biotechnology represent a rapidly expanding field. The resulting combination of sensing, actuating, interfacing and intelligent processing provides implantable devices the perspective to efficiently compensate for failing organs. Bi-directional telemetry-controlled implanted micro-systems will represent a real breakthrough in healthcare and more specifically in functional electrical stimulation (FES). The afferent branch of a control loop is essential for matching responses to ongoing activity as well as automatically avoiding stimulation damage. Such systems will in addition collect information directly leading to further development of communications means with the nervous system. The IMANE research project aims at gathering the heterogeneous technologies that should concur at meeting these requirements at a highly competitive level.A new silicone rubber metallization process and electrode surface treatment will be developed with the expected result of a miniature nerve electrode holding a high density of well characterised contacts for interfacing biological tissues. An experimental study of the correlation between neural status and damage should yield the data required to implement safety rules in the control loop of implanted devices. This feature will contribute to eliminate the decoupling capacitors usually placed at the stimulator output where they impede miniaturisation by their volume and by the wasted voltage drop they introduce. An active neural recording chain will be integrated in the final electrode to give a direct access to the neural activity. An improved encapsulation technique will be applied to the embedded electronics and completed by a new electrode assembly method.The newly gained knowledge should be applic

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'An Evaluation Framework for Service-Oriented Requirements Engineering' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

EFRASYS aims to create new methodological frameworks for evaluating software development methods and techniques within the new discipline of Service-oriented Requirements Engineering (SoRE). The project will involve the following multidisciplinary research: (i) New and novel SoRE methods and techniques will be analyzed with the purpose of understanding their nature, assumptions, and principal associated features. (ii) Empirical software engineering methods will be applied to SoRE, through revision of existing empirical research techniques to identify potential uses and value, and production of a set of guidelines to combine empirical research techniques, for example simulation-based experiments, to suit the nature of services-oriented computing. (iii) Software measurement will be involved through definition of quantitative and qualitatively measurable attributes from service customer and provider perspectives. (iv) Theoretical disciplines such as ontology and cognitive psychology will be incorporated into the understanding of SoRE methods to complement the evaluation framework. EFRASYS will be developed within the IS Research Group of the University of Twente under the supervision of two prestigious researchers in their respective areas, namely Requirements Engineering and Sofware Measurement. The high quality of the host institution and supervisors as well as the complementary training and experience that will be provided, will allow her to attain career goals as senior researcher, professor and business consultant. EFRASYS is relevant to the Marie Curie Work Programme because it will allow the fellow to develop new research competences including the new service orientation computing paradigm, improve existing research competences at an advanced level in empirical soft

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Microbiological conversion of renewable electricity and CO2 to a natural gas quality bio-fuel' (ELECTHANE), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

OWS wants to commercialize a biological process that converts CO2 and H2 (after electrolysis of renewable electricity) to CH4 (main component in natural gas). Lab and pilot tests have been and are being conducted and show promising results. A next step in the development is creating a sound business model for further commercialization, and the construction of a first plant at full-scale for further optimization and demonstration purposes to potential clients.As renewable energy sources are gaining more ground in the electricity mix in Europe, imbalance problems on the electricity grid will increase in frequency. The proposed concept offers a solution to this imbalance problem by converting excess electricity via hydrolysis to H2 and using (waste) CO2 to CH4 that can be injected into the gas grid. The advantage of the proposed system is the small scale (< 10 MWe), so the conversion can be done near the production sites.When there is an excess of renewable electricity, fees are paid to the operators of renewable electricity for not producing, thus avoiding grid imbalance. Although this approach is understandable from a balancing perspective, it is contradictory to a sustainable approach and in conflict with the existing renewable energy targets. Therefore, producers of renewable electricity are a first important target group for our technology.CO2-intensive industries are a second important target group. By recycling their waste CO2, they become more sustainable, and it can generate extra revenues from buffering activities.During the feasibility study, OWS wants to elaborate a sound business plan for further development of the technology. It should result in a clear vision on technical, economic and legal issues. The final goal is to build a first full-scale demonstration

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Reconsidering Representation: How Electoral Districts Shape Party Systems' (RRHEDSPS) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

An electoral system is an essential component of representative democracy. It translates preferencesof citizens to a legislative body and inevitably distorts preferences, voicing some more loudly than others.Theorizing and empirically analyzing how the electoral system tilts the playing ground is the aim of thisstudy.The number of seats allotted to an electoral district—the district magnitude (DM)—is perhaps themost important component defining an electoral system. It is long established that DM affects key featuresof the political landscape in a country, such as representation, the number of parties, the type of government(single- or multi-party coalition), parties’ strategy, voters’ consideration, and even redistribution policy.Most democracies, however, have districts of many different magnitudes, and the range often reaches thirtyseats gap between the smallest and largest districts in a country. Districts in Portugal, for instance, varybetween two and forty-eight seats, and in Switzerland between one and thirty-five. The voluminousliterature on electoral districts uniformly sidesteps this heterogeneity, focusing instead on a single middledistrict per country.The proposed study is the first large-scale study that theorizes about and empirically analyzes theeffects of within-country district structure. I address questions such as: how does district heterogeneityshape representation at the national level? How does it affect the party system? And how does it affect partycoordination?In the first part of the study I will theorize about various aspects of district heterogeneity in a country(e.g., skewness, effective number of magnitudes). I will gain deep understanding for district distributionsand develop politically-relevant measures of heterogeneity. Drawing on insight

user: Describe how 'European Soft Matter Infrastructure' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The central objective of this ESMI proposal  is to create a top-level interdisciplinary research infrastructure available to a broad European materials research community. This is of crucial importance to the EU in view of the European strategy for nanosciences and nanotechnology and its implementation report that identifies “a lack of leading interdisciplinary infrastructures”.ESMI offers the most important experimental and synthesis techniques and combines world-class infrastructures with cutting edge scientific expertise through a sophisticated networking programme. The anticipated JRA will further improve the existing infrastructure. Computer simulations being of increasing importance for the understanding and prediction of complex materials, ESMI offers access to simulation groups and their advanced tools. The availability of such an infrastructure will provide soft matter scientists with a broad choice of techniques to address their scientific objectives. It will result in a quantum leap in research opportunities and assure that European scientists have a world-class collaborative capability for their frontier research. ESMI will strongly contribute to a fundamental understanding, allowing the development of new, tailored smart materials.ESMI follows the FP6 experience of the NoE SoftComp. A key feature developed within SoftComp is the highly successful Research Platforms offered to its members, anticipating the spirit of the EU Integrated Infrastructure Initiative. ESMI will promote the SoftComp experience to the European materials community, reflecting the EU recommendations that FP6 collaborative projects “may well lead to new European infrastructures”.Together with a platform for disseminating the results and educating a new generation of young soft matter sci

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Glutaminase Isoenzymes: Gatekeepers of Bioenergetics, Immunity, and Tumor Microenvironment in Diabetes-Induced Hepatocellular Carcinoma' (IRM) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common primary liver cancer, has survival rates below 20%. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) markedly increases HCC incidence by driving metabolic and inflammatory changes, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Emerging evidence points to altered glutamine metabolism via the glutaminase isoenzymes GLS and GLS2 as a key link, though its role in diabetes-driven HCC remains unexplored.This project aims to elucidate how GLS and GLS2 regulate tumor bioenergetics, metabolic flexibility, and immune evasion in T2D-associated HCC, and to assess whether targeting these isoenzymes offers a viable therapeutic approach. The specific aims are: 1) Characterize the roles of GLS and GLS2 in tumorigenesis and metabolic reprogramming in diabetes-associated HCC using CD-HFD mouse models.2) Dissect the distinct roles of GLS and GLS2 in regulating tumor bioenergetics and metabolic reprogramming in HCC to be used as targets in liver cancer.3) Design a therapeutic strategy for diabetes-driven HCC including GLS and GLS2 through their impact in the tumor microenvironment, focusing on immune cell infiltration, activation status of both isoenzymes, and their immunosuppressive mechanisms.To achieve these goals, the study will employ physiologically relevant mouse models of metabolic syndrome–driven HCC, complemented by advanced methodologies including Seahorse metabolic flux assays, live-cell imaging, metabolomics, and single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect tumor–stromal–immune interactions. Sex-specific differences will also be systematically investigated.The project will generate new mechanistic insights into the metabolic crosstalk between diabetes and liver cancer, uncovering therapeutic vulnerabilities that target glutamine dependence while overcoming tumor het

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Inclusive innovation bringing the digitalizing world to the changing care needs and preferences of Europe’s ageing population'.

assistant: **Innovation**

EU population today is the oldest it has ever been with 102 million people that are 65 years and older. This number isforecasted to rise to 150 million and account for 30% of the overall EU population by 2050. Since most European seniorswish to stay in their own home when growing old and since nursing homes are relatively more expensive, new care modelsthat prioritize home-care are required. To address this the European Parliament and EU member states are searching forways to provide high-quality care for the elderly, specifically through informal home-care and technological innovation.Unfortunately, European seniors and caregivers are not getting the support they need. The EU’s unprecedented ageing hascreated significant and growing need for care. Already today, there is a tremendous skills shortage in caregiving throughoutEurope. There are plenty of caregiver recruiting services, but they are ineffective as they are outdated and steeped inconventional paper-based infrastructure. Furthermore, state-of-the-art solutions pair seniors and caregivers without attentionto differences in character traits, which too often leads to conflict and subsequently to early termination of caregivingrelationships. On top of that, they are expensive, fragmented and difficult to access because they lack online services.mecasa addresses these problems by recruiting personnel via its online platform. Advertising takes place both on- andoffline, but actual recruiting is digitized through testing including voice analysis, automated document checks and videointerviews. mecasa has developed proprietary matching algorithms, which define matches based on individual character andpersonality traits. Character traits are measured by standardized psychological testing, subsequently translated into am
