user: Explain how 'Optimization driven Multi-hop Network Design and Experimentation' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

OPNEX delivers a first principles approach to the design of architectures and protocols for multi-hop wireless networks. Systems and optimization theory is used as the foundation for algorithms that provably achieve full transport capacity of wireless systems. Subsequently a plan for converting the algorithms termed in abstract network models to protocols and architectures in practical wireless systems is given. Finally a validation methodology through experimental protocol evaluation in real network test-beds is proposed.<br/><br/>OPNEX will use recent advances in system theoretic network control, including the back-pressure principle, max-weight scheduling, utility optimization congestion control and primal-dual method for extracting network algorithms. These approaches exhibited already vast potential for achieving maximum capacity and full exploitation of resources in abstract network models and found their way to reality in high performance switching architectures and recent variants of TCP that embody the primal-dual optimization principle. <br/><br/>Wireless, the fastest growing component of internet today, is also the least understood for the designer due to mobility, rapidly changing topology, radio link unpredictability and volatile load distribution among others. Current approaches used in practice for multi-hop wireless, the basic communication infrastructure for sensor network extensions of the internet, are mostly empirical and heuristic. Our system optimization approach will provide a rigorous integrated system design framework from physical up to network and transport layer that renders itself to validation and comparison with the theoretically optimal performance in terms of throughput, spectrum and energy utilization. The adopted approach on decentrali

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Network on trace element speciation - preparing for the 21st century' (1994-1998) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Speciation is an indispensable tool for studies on the biogeochemistry of trace elements. The need for the determination of individual chemical species (speciation analysis) occurs especially where these species are known to be very toxic to humans and biota e.g. As(III), Cr(VI) and Se(VI), methylmercury or tributyltin. Consequently, the increasing concern for an improved control of (environment and food) contamination levels and of knowledge of trace element toxical impact has led to the development of new analytical techniques for the determination of a wide variety of compounds which is also reflected by a considerable increase in the number of determinations. Many problems remain unsolved, e.g. the control of the quality of speciation measurements is often hampered by the lack of suitable reference materials and the techniques are not sufficiently adapted to routine analysis. Other problems are more acute and stand for a lack of communication between scientists, industry representatives and legislators for the possible improvement of written standards and EC regulations; indeed legislation, at present, mainly concern total element contents which is in many cases useless for an accurate risk evaluation (e.g. for environmental contamination, food quality, health risks etc.). It is hence timely to share expertise and views among different communities in order to improve the situation. This network has been selected for funding after the approval of a first step which was granted in 1996. The implementation phase was positively evaluated in January 1997. The main objective of the network is to bring together scientists with a background in analytical chemistry interested in speciation method development with potential users from industry and representatives from legisla

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'From Protist to Proxy:Dinoflagellates as signal carriers for climate and carbon cycling during past and present extreme climate transitions' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

I propose to develop and apply a novel method for the integrated reconstruction of past changes in carbon cycling and climate change. This method will be based on combining a well-established sensitive paleoclimate proxy with a recent discovery: the stable carbon isotopic composition (δ13C) of marine dinoflagellates (algae) and their organic fossils (dinocysts) reflects seawater carbonate chemistry, particularly pCO2. Biological (culture) experiments will lead to new insights in dinoflagellate carbon acquisition, and enable quantification of the effect of carbon speciation on dinoflagellate δ13C. The rises in CO2 concentrations during the last century, and at the termination of the last glacial period will be used to test and calibrate the new method. The δ13C of fossil dinoflagellate cysts will subsequently be used to reconstruct surface ocean pCO2 and ocean acidification during a past analogue of rapidly rising carbon dioxide concentrations, 55 million years ago. My research will shed new light on processes such as ocean acidification and the marine carbon cycle as a whole. Past analogues of rapid carbon injection can aid in the quantification of climate change and identification of vulnerable biological groups, critical to identify ‘tipping points’ in system Earth. The study of dinoflagellate carbon isotopes comprises the initiation of a new research field and will provide constraints on ocean acidification in the past and its consequences in the future.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Beyond Empathy: Toward a phenomenological Ethics of Vulnerability' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

According to a report, titled “Violence against Women: an EU-wide survey” and published by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights in March 2014, « one in three women (33 %) has experienced physical and/or sexual violence since she was 15 years old, and, slightly more than half of all women in the EU (53 %) avoid certain situations or places, at least sometimes, for fear of being physically or sexually assaulted”. The report stresses that the “feeling of vulnerability” is prevalent among these women. Vulnerability is commonly defined as the “ability to be harmed”, and often associated with weakness or passivity. But the prevalence of the feeling of vulnerability among women in the European Union puts into question this framework and calls for a conceptual revaluation of this notion in order to address its ethical and social significance. This proposal aims to reconsider the moral and philosophical definition of vulnerability based on weakness and harm in order to elaborate a phenomenological ethics of vulnerability that goes beyond traditional accounts of empathy. To do so, the ontological framework of philosophical and psychological theories of empathy will be assessed. Political theories and development policies will be analyzed in order to offer solutions to prevent vulnerability from turning into violence and victimization. This proposal will rely on the phenomenological tradition to introduce the notion of “vulnerable bodily self” as a new paradigm to describe the individual. This research mixes theoretical analysis (phenomenology) and interdisciplinary empirical work (psychology, cognitive sciences, feminist theories). It bears significant consequences for contemporary philosophical discussions on the nature of the self. Its timeliness echoes a need for n

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Entanglement with trapped ions in an optical cavity' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Trapped ions constitute one of the most promising systems for the demonstration of quantum computing protocols. By coupling trapped ions to a high-finesse optical cavity, we create a quantum interface between photons and atoms, allowing coherent transfer of quantum information between light and matter. We propose to demonstrate atom-photon entanglement, atom-atom entanglement between two ions within a cavity, and quantum state mapping from atom to photon. In addition, we discuss plans to bring ion-trap cavity quantum electrodynamics into the strong coupling regime. These would represent significant steps toward a quantum network, which could link individual quantum systems over long distances.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Novel Approaches to Bacterial Target Identification, Validation and Inhibition' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Despite the advent of the antibiotic era, infectious diseases retain their pre-eminent position as major worldwide causes of morbidity and mortality. This problem has been worsen by the emergence of multi-antibiotic resistant bacteria and the failure of Pharmaceutical company drug discovery programmes to design antibiotics with truly novel modes of action. NABATIVI has put together a unique consortium made of six academic insitutions and three highly recognized SMEs with complementary expertise in the fields of molecular pathogenicity and broad expertise in drug discovery, optimisation, preclinical development. The consortium has been specifically designed to generate new strategies leading to the identification and validation of novel targets for antimicrobials using as model organisms the gram-negatives Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Burkholderia cenocepacia as they are key agents of morbidity and mortality worldwide in a wide range of diseases. The versatility of these model bacteria will enable the results obtained to be extrapolated to other bacterial pathogens. The extensive involvement of SMEs in this consortium will enable the selection of lead compounds against the identified targets from their large libraries of natural and synthetic chemicals which after validation will establish the basis for the development of new classes of antibacterial drugs. This will result in a reduction in the incidence and improvement of the treatment of infections caused by these organisms with a direct impact on the quality of life and the life expectancy of the affected risk patient populations.

user: Describe how 'Boosting Circular Systemic Solutions through Virtual Regional Circular Economy Spaces' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

CSSBoost aims to overcome technological and non-technological CE barriers, minimise CSS application and operational risks and decisively stimulate and maximise the Circular Economy and Bioeconomy Transition in any EU city/region or group of regions. To pursue this, CSSBoost develops a novel CSS Application Framework that views a CSS as a composite living entity that operates and evolves within a CE/CSS Ecosystem and Market, an open (physical) space of city, regional or multi-regional scope, encompassing an area’s existing CE market, its value chains and its entire external environment, even extra-regional entities and markets. It also introduces the methodological concept of the CSSBoost Integrated Solution that involves the integration of one or more CSS within a digital environment, enhanced by tailored methodology and procedures. This physical system is virtualised, monitored, analysed and assessed by developing the key CSSBoost innovation, the Virtual Regional CE/CSS Ecosystem and Market (VCEM). CSSBoost designs a set of diverse Exemplary CSSs, both as transition tools and to validate and promote its ideas by applying and demonstrating them in five city, regional and interregional Pilot Cases. The exemplary CSSs respond to different challenges, barriers, needs and feasibilities across EU and target different product value chains, as delineated in the EU’s Circular Economy Action Plan (Water, Food, and Nutrients; Plastics; Batteries & Vehicles). CSSBoost develops both its innovations and pilots by applying a rigorous SotA co-creation environment and instruments and SSH methods and procedures. It also develops replication, organisational, business and exploitation plans for the uptake, replication and upscaling of its solutions, as well as education and training progr

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Biosensing with ORGanic ElectronicS'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Organic Bioelectronics is a fast-rising field encompassing organic electronic devices that exhibit mixed electronic and ionic conductivity. It represents a truly unique communication bridge across the technology gap existing between the living systems and digital electronics. Biosensing is one of the most scientifically and industrially promising application of organic (bio)electronics. It is important to form young professionals that will be able to operate into this highly-interdisciplinary field, where proficiency in chemistry, materials science and technology, solid state physics, biochemistry, engineering is needed. Such curricula can be hardly constructed within institutional degrees, at least not at the level that can be provided by a European Training Network. The objective of BORGES is to train the next generation of R&D innovators in organic bioelectronics, with the aim of developing organic biosensors up to demonstration in an end-user significant context. BORGES trainees will be educated with a holistic perspective of the technology, from fundamentals and fabrication, through characterization, to clinical/research user scenarios. BORGES training will be based on i) acquiring solid background in different scientific and technological fields; ii) exposing trainees to diverse sectors, from academia to technological research centres to industrial nodes; iii) fostering the development of transversal competencies. The BORGES Network is composed by 12 beneficiary institutions and one associate partner. With 4 non-academic nodes, and research centres with a clear industrial drive, BORGES ensures exposure of its fellows to a truly multisectorial environment. The state of the art training received by its fellows in a rapidly growing field with a strong socio-economic

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'The aroma/flavor profiles of Freekeh, a Mediterranean green durum wheat product, its market acceptability and utilization of its production methods for other Nordic-based cereals' (AnaFree) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Analysis of Freekeh Aroma, Sensory-perception and Preparation MethodsFreekeh (Arabic, ‘rubbed’) is an ancient wheat product with a unique preparation method and flavor profile. It is essentially immature durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) grains, harvested while plants are green and the seeds are soft. The plants are stacked and then set on fire (usually in situ) to rid of stalks, awns and leaves. Bushels are then threshed, grains separated from the chaff, dried and cracked. The production process lends a smoky, complex aroma to the finished product, described as nutty, earthy and smoky. Compared to dried mature Durum Freekeh is richer in fiber, protein, sugars and Mn and has a low glycemic index. Timing of harvest determines much of the quality, since protein, fiber and antioxidants decrease while phytate levels increase in parallel to seed maturation. Additionally, sugars are converted into starch as the grains fill, making seeds that are in the milk-ripe to mid-dough-ripe stages optimal. Worldwide production is rising (>300K ton/yr), demand in western country increases and it is also used in Haute Cuisine. Although its popularity, Freekeh has not been studied for its aroma/flavor profiles. I believe this product could serve as an interesting model for both basic and applicable research that has been, to date, underrepresented in food science. I propose to:a.Investigate the aroma/flavor profiles of Freekeh (e.g. volatile compounds, sugars and organic acids). Special focus will be given to compounds imparting its smoky attributes and their precursors.b.Analyze the sensory perception of consuming Freekeh dishes and to evaluate its consumer acceptability.c.Test the production method of Freekeh by utilizing common cereals (Rye, Barley, Spelt) or by adding different smoke sou

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Corporate culture and regional embeddedness' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

A vital and innovative regional life is basic for European society and economy. Europe has its strength in regional cultural diversity. The discussion on globalisation and integration, however, first of all focuses on homogenisation of cultures. The emergence of vital and innovative regional cultures is neglected in the mainstream of political and academic research. CURE aims at studying processes of cultural change as a result of interaction between companies and regions.The key questions of CURE are:- To which extent do company cultures influence regional commitment?- Which types of regional culture are of interest for which type of enterprise?- How do corporate and regional cultures interact and how do they influence each other?The key target of the project is then to study how regional and corporate cultures interact and how to they influence each other. In the course of interaction, different cultures come together, shape each other and change. Such a process of interaction and cultural change is the connecting link that has to be studied. Interaction can take place in different forms: it can concentrate on material, symbolic or knowledge flows. The empirical work focuses on 210 cases studies and 21 in depth studies in seven European regions and is guided by an interdisciplinary framework.The project brings together research from cultural science, regional science, social science and economies in an interdisciplinary way. The expected results are an interdisciplinary research framework on regional cultural change (spacing), new impulses for the disciplines involved and a concept of the regionally embedded company that is considered crucial for the development of a knowledge based and competitive European space.
