The extended een innovation support service for innovative smes in serbia — een innos journey

According to official data, 99.9% of the enterprises in Serbia are SMEs. SMEs in Serbia contribute a share of roughly 60% of employment and less than 50% of value added, compared with the respective EU averages of 67% and 57%. Micro-firms make a particularly small contribution, providing only 10% of value added, 11 percentage points lower than in the EU .
Regarding the movement of the total innovation index (SII-Summary Innovation Index), it can be concluded that the innovative performance of the Republic of Serbia indicates a certain increase, since SII for the Republic of Serbia in 2016 was 64,2 compared to 46,8 in 2010. Also, the innovative performance in Serbia is still below the average of EU-28 (102 for the same year). However, regarding SII index for the period of 2010–2016 in the neighbouring countries, it can be concluded that the situation in Serbia is more favourable compared to Bulgaria, Macedonia (FYROM), Romania and Croatia, but less favourable compared to Slovenia or Hungary . 
Taking into account all this, the Enterprise Europe Network could play a crucial role in bridging the gaps of knowledge, resources and skills that could be essential for increasing the innovation capacity of SMEs, especially in experience and knowledge sharing, training and consultation EEN could provide assistance to managers and entrepreneurs in all phases of the development of new products and services, from concept to commercialization. The overall objective of EEN InnoS Journey is to increase Summary Innovation Index of Serbia providing services that will help to foster innovation and drive a fast growth of Serbian economy.
Integrated Concepts Enhancing Cohesion of European Space

European rural areas are confronted with serious problems, with which they have to cope in order to survive. The globalisation of the economy and the new CAP result to strengthening competition and shrinking competitiveness of European agricultural products and areas. Their exposure to the international market beside the imminent EU enlargement, are expected to threaten the cohesion of the European space in total. Structural measures with a territorial approach have to compensate the difficulties emerging from the new situation. In this changing environment local competitiveness becomes a key issue. Integrated planning and focus of local efforts on a specific economic objective, in which local areas provide a comparative advantage, help overcoming shortage of resources and increasing efficiency of activities. A sector or a specific product, significant for a particular area's identity, may become, in this context, poles of growth for the entire area ensuring its further survival.
Characteristics of hydroseismograms in Jingle well, China

Abstract Hydroseismograms reflect the oscillations of well water levels caused by seismic waves. In this study, the relationships between the hydroseismogram oscillation amplitude and three factors (seismic magnitude, epicentral distance, and focal depth) in Jingle well, China were analyzed. The results revealed that hydroseismogram amplitude increases exponentially with seismic magnitude as H mag = 7.848 × 10 - 8 × e 2.1690 × m + 0.047 ( m > M w 5.8 ) ( m – seismic magnitude), decreases exponentially with epicentral distance as H dis = - 2.1108 × 10 - 5 × e 2.3864 × γ + 0.011 ( γ – epicentral distance), and decreases exponentially with focal depth as H dep = - 1.6438 × 10 - 3 × e 0.0254 × d - 0.203 (d is focal depth). However, these relationships become uncertain when the epicentral distance exceeds 4000 km and are not applicable to nuclear explosions. Based upon the single well–aquifer model constructed for Jingle well, the amplification ( μ ) of the water level oscillation by ground vibrations μ = A b A a = R 2 - r 2 r 2 depends on the frequency of the water-level oscillations. For relatively high-frequency oscillations (caused by earthquakes with relatively small epicentral distances), the amplification will be small, while for low-frequency oscillations (caused by earthquakes with relatively large epicentral distances), the amplification will be large. Using the S-transform, the dominant hydroseismogram period increases with the epicentral distance as τ = 0.5826 × γ + 12.51 , which means that the amplification ( μ ) increases with the epicentral distance. Of course, the amplitude of ground oscillations will be greatly attenuated with increasing epicentral distance. Due to the anisotropy of the earth and seismic wave superposition, the relationships between the hydroseismogram amplitude and the seismic magnitude, epicentral distance, and focal depth become blurred or even uncertain with increasing epicentral distance and focal depth, leading to poor goodness-of-fit between the dominant hydroseismogram period and epicentral distance. The quantitative relationships between the hydroseismogram amplitude and the seismic magnitude, epicentral distance, and focal depth, which determine the ratio between the amplitudes of water-level oscillations and ground vibrations and the relationship between groundwater oscillations and seismic wave transmission, are proposed for the first time in the present work. These results will improve understanding of hydrogeological conditions and could also be important in identifying reliable earthquake precursors.
Assessing Health-Related Quality of Life with Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (APDT) and Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) after Third Molar Removal.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) and low level laser therapy (LLLT) on wound healing, pain intensity, swelling problems, halitosis and the postoperative usage of analgesics after surgical removal of lower third molars.One hundred and fifty patients, randomly divided into three groups were selected (50 per each group). The P1 group received the APDT after a third molar surgery, the P2 group received the LLLT and the C group (control group) was without any additional therapy after surgery. A photoactive substance was applied in the APDT study group before suturing. After 60 seconds the photosensitive substance was thoroughly washed with saline water and the laser light was applied in two intervals (30 seconds each). The irradiation power was 50 mW while the wavelength was 660 nm. The laser therapy in P2 group was performed before suturing and the laser light was applied also in two intervals (90 seconds each), the irradiation power was 90 mW while the wavelength was the same as in the first group - 660 nm. Postoperative follow-ups were scheduled on the third and the seventh day in patients who received laser therapy.The results of the postoperative evaluation showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the postoperative wound healing, pain intensity, swelling problems, halitosis and analgesics intake between patients in all three groups (p<0.001). The patients that were subjected to APDT (P1) had the least postoperative problems. After the laser therapy (P1 and P2) wound healing was without any complications, opposite from the patients from the C group (p<0.001). Postoperative application of a laser therapy significantly reduced patient's use of analgesics over the observed period of time (p<0.001).Both modalities of laser therapy significantly reduced postoperative problems after surgical removal of third lower molars with the best results in both laser groups.
Swarms of underwater robots for fast & accurate water quality measurements

The world's oceans & lakes are under increasing stress caused by the climate change & increasing pollution (primarily driven by increasing urbanization in developing countries), but littleThe world's oceans & lakes are under increasing stress caused by the climate change & increasing pollution (primarily driven by increasing urbanization in developing countries), but little is known about them as data is difficult & expensive to obtain. State-of-the-art technology is mostly high OPEX dedicated ships with a lot of labor needed to survey for hours.
Hydromea has developed the miniature robotic Vertex submersible that can operate in swarms & measure the quality of large bodies of water much faster & more cost efficiently than the existing alternatives.
Using swarms of miniature underwater robots. Hydromea provides a high-resolution underwater sensing service. Using the Vertex AUV, a small underwater robot, specifically designed in-house to be deployed in large swarms by 1-2 operators, Hydromea can provide consistent, high-density, 3D maps of many physical & chemical water parameters. Vertex swarms can collect 10-100x more information about environmental qualities in a single pass than is possible to collect with the current methods.
With this technology we will commercialize a service where we will detect & map oil spills or discharged wastewater plumes, assess the environmental impact of construction projects & create detailed high-resolution maps charting the health of marine ecosystems. We will improve the state-of-the-art in coastal oceanology & limnology by drastically cutting the measurement costs with swarms of Vertex underwater drones. 
We have already had 1st market traction by selling custom high-performance components, developed in-house & signed commercial NDAs with major global oil/gas, dredging & research prospects like Schlumberger, Boskalis & Deltares.
By 2022 we are aiming to build ~400+ AUVs reaching the overall sales revenues of ~15m & ~35 employees.
Viral immune evasion: Lessons in MHC class I antigen presentation

The MHC class I antigen presentation pathway enables cells infected with intracellular pathogens to signal the presence of the invader to the immune system. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes are able to eliminate the infected cells through recognition of pathogen-derived peptides presented by MHC class I molecules at the cell surface. In the course of evolution, many viruses have acquired inhibitors that target essential stages of the MHC class I antigen presentation pathway. Studies on these immune evasion proteins reveal fascinating strategies used by viruses to elude the immune system. Viral immunoevasins also constitute great research tools that facilitate functional studies on the MHC class I antigen presentation pathway, allowing the investigation of less well understood routes, such as TAP-independent antigen presentation and cross-presentation of exogenous proteins. Viral immunoevasins have also helped to unravel more general cellular processes. For instance, basic principles of ER-associated protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway have been resolved using virus-induced degradation of MHC class I as a model. This review highlights how viral immunoevasins have increased our understanding of MHC class I-restricted antigen presentation.
<p><strong>First fossil larvae of Berothidae (Neuroptera) from Baltic amber, </strong><br /><strong>with notes on the biology and termitophily of the family</strong></p>

Four fossil larvae of Berothidae (Neuroptera) from Baltic amber are described in detail, and the main characters of a fifth larva are discussed briefly. Two first instars very probably belong to the Berothinae; the subfamilial affinities of three othe (probably full-grown) larvae are unclear. The latter are characterized by features not found so far in extant taxa of Berothi dae: antennae and labial palps with six to seven segments; ecdysial cleavage lines consist of only frontal and coronal sutures (the lateral suture is absent); pronotal sclerites large and very close to each other along midline. However, these larvae belong with certainty to Berothidae as indicated by the structure of their mouthparts, and their general appearance. Morphological and biological data on the larvae of Berothidae are summarized and analyzed. It is presumed that termitophily might have evolved during the Cretaceous (or in the early Cenozoic), and only in Berothinae (or in subfamilies closely related to this group). The Baltic amber berothid assemblage apparently included both termitophilous and noni termitophilous larvae.

Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) A heat-insulating element; (B) and for a heat-insulating sheet; (C) and for a heat-insulating layer.
Geographies of asylum justice: the lived realities and spaces of the danish asylum procedure

This proposed research examines the ways in which Western states’ receding commitment to refugee protection is re-shaping the current asylum system. As a result of ongoing global refugee crises, the institution of asylum is coming under great pressure. Countries across the world are growing increasingly reluctant to provide asylum to people in need. While asylum remains in force in national and international laws, it is being subverted in practice through a complex web of border enforcement and bureaucratic interventions. By analysing the lived realities of the asylum procedure, this research project will assess how these changes materialize and shape the provision of asylum as a legal right. More specifically, this research will develop a feminist geographical approach in order to trace the ways that this legal process of deciding who obtains asylum is carried out in practice and experienced by the actors involved. To do this, the researcher – Dr Malene H. Jacobsen – will relocate from Ireland to Newcastle University in the United Kingdom in order to undertake an in-depth qualitative study of the asylum procedure in Denmark, a country that has long been at the forefront of reducing the EU’s commitment to asylum and refugee protection. This research project will significantly advance scholarship on asylum determination, refugee protection, and processes of juridical border work, contributing to the fields of political geography and legal geography as well as broader interdisciplinary debates across border studies, refugee studies, and socio-legal studies. Findings from this research will further inform European public and policy debates about asylum through engagement with key stakeholders and targeted audiences. Dr Jacobsen will gain research expertise in social geography, feminist theory, and creative qualitative methodologies, and expand her European networks among scholars, policy communities, and the nongovernmental sector.
Economic Based Approach to Environmental Regulation as a Panacea to Effective Environmental Management in Nigeria

Nigeria has an array of environmental protection legislation and regulations. However, their provisions have not resulted in environmentally cleaner behaviour, technologies or products, nor have they resulted in green development or an environment that is free from abuse and dislocation. It is therefore our belief that current legal mechanism have failed to provide adequate economic incentives to limit activities, which are environmentally damaging and therefore unable to achieve their environmental objectives. This paper advocates for a paradigm shift to economic based regulation as a means of achieving optimum environmental protection in Nigeria. It traces the inherent provisions in Nigerian Environmental Laws that have contributed to their failure to elicit the required environmental protection compliance and recommends the needed shift in environmental regulation to elicit appropriate environmental protection compliance from players and participants alike to avoid continued environmental spoliation. Keywords: economic approach, environment, environmental protection, legal regime, regulation
Physiological effects of endophyte-infected perennial ryegrass straw on female camels in the Middle East

Recently, the United Arab Emirates has increased importation of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) straw as part of the grass/hay ration for camels. Unfortunately, perennial ryegrass straw may be infected with the endophyte Neotyphodium lolii which produces lolitrem B, a toxic alkaloid responsible for the disease ‘ryegrass staggers.’ A range-finding study was conducted using 24 non-pregnant female camels fed four doses (0, 1111, 1478 and 2273 ppb) of lolitrem B-containing perennial ryegrass straw over 56 days to establish a threshold of toxicity in camels so that perennial ryegrass straw can be safely fed as part of their dietary ration. Physiological parameters were evaluated. Neurological deficits were evaluated by videotape and scored according to an established scale for the neurological syndrome ryegrass staggers. Camels in the endophyte-infected groups developed varying degrees of ataxia. Brain edema, degenerative renal and hepatic lesions as well as Purkinje cell vacuolar degeneration were observed in camels receiving the highest dose. To avoid clinical disease in camels, endophyte-infected perennial ryegrass straw should be fed at 500 ppb or lower lolitrem B; straw at 1000 ppb or higher should be diluted to achieve the 500 ppb threshold of toxicity.
Environmental problems of the Greeks and Romans: ecology in the ancient Mediterranean

In this dramatically revised and expanded second edition of the work entitled Pan's Travail, J. Donald Hughes examines the environmental history of the classical period and argues that the decline of ancient civilizations resulted in part from their exploitation of the natural world. Focusing on Greece and Rome, as well as areas subject to their influences, Hughes offers a detailed look at the impact of humans and their technologies on the ecology of the Mediterranean basin. Evidence of deforestation in ancient Greece, the remains of Roman aqueducts and mines, and paintings on centuries-old pottery that depict agricultural activities document ancient actions that resulted in detrimental consequences to the environment. Hughes compares the ancient world's environmental problems to other persistent social problems and discusses attitudes toward nature expressed in Greek and Latin literature. In addition to extensive revisions based on the latest research, this new edition includes photographs from Hughes' worldwide excursions, a new chapter on warfare and the environment, and an updated bibliography.
Numerical modelling of the structural controls on irish zn-pb ore deposits

MODIO will investigate the structural controls on mineralisation in the world class Irish Lower Carboniferous base metal deposits. Using top quality data from many Irish mining industry partners and government agencies, MODIO will investigate the links between the fault system framework and orebodies as well as the fundamental fault kinematics underlying the segmented extensional fault arrays that are seen to control these mineral deposits. For this, the fellow will use an integrated multidisciplinary approach of (1) 3D geological modelling, (2) kinematic restoration, (3) discrete element method modelling, and (4) flexural backstripping at University College Dublin. The project will in detail constrain the fault-mineralisation network in several Irish mineral deposits in 3D, as well as providing regional constraints. These 3D models will be used as input for forward mechanical discrete element modelling of the fault systems through time and a reconstruction of the thermal and structural evolution of the basin using flexural backstripping. 

A better understanding of the fundamental structural controls on base metal deposits in extensional basins would significantly inform mineral exploration activities and reduce investment risks in Irish Zn-Pb deposits and many similar deposits throughout Europe. MODIO presents the perfect opportunity for the fellow to become an industry innovator doing cross-disciplinary research at the crossroads between structural, economic and computer geology. The application of state-of-the-art integrative modelling techniques and abundant links with mining industry and geoscience community will provide advanced training to the fellow and will leave him well-equipped for an independent research career and well networked with cross-disciplinary industry.
Splenic injury following colonoscopy

I agree with the authors that splenic injury following colonoscopy has been under-reported and is likely to increase with an on-going National Bowel Screening Programme.

In this particular case, re-anticoagulation with warfarin seems to be one of the predisposing factors causing secondary bleed. The spleen was found to be shattered with very little enhancing tissue on the computed tomography scan high-lighting that injury was due to traction injury to the atheromatous splenic vessels rather than the capsular tear as seen in our case report.1 Although possible mechanisms of injury have been postulated in this case report and previous publications,1 the type of injury to the spleen (capsular or vessel) will help delineate the exact mode of injury to the spleen.

It leaves the dilemma of whether splenic trauma should be mentioned on the consent form as a complication of colonoscopy. The true incidence remains unknown as authors have high-lighted that it may remain undiagnosed or be misdiagnosed as post-colonoscopy discomfort.
The social network for pilots, to make flying safer and cheaper

Only in Europe, 150 people lose their lives every year on light aircraft accidents. Flying is not a dangerous activity itself but the technology and regulations binominal is not optimal for this type of aviation. A lot can be done to improve safety margins. 

Over the years, aviation technology introduced in commercial aviation has led to a dramatic reduction of accidents. Tremendous investments in innovation brought traffic avoidance systems, flight data recorders, aircraft tracking... cutting edge tech that unfortunately cannot be transferred to light aviation straight away, just because of one single reason: high costs.

Aeroclubs and flying schools are usually low margin businesses, not to mention leisure flying... Commercial aviation equipment costs are too high and regulators, aware of that, cannot impose them as mandatory. However, they are calling for tailored solutions to save lives while maintaining light aviation financially viable.

Imagine a cost effective solution for light aircraft operators and regulators to enhance safety and reduce operational costs just by monitoring and analyzing metrics on every flight. Imagine a software, running in the smartphone of the pilot that could make many of the commercial aviation safety features, available to light airplane pilots. Imagine a social approach to it, a network where pilots can share flights, challenge themselves to fly safer and grow as a community. Imagine this is called AVIAZE.

Inspired in the successful app Strava for runners, AVIAZE is the social network for pilots that makes flying safer and cheaper. With an addressable market of 5,5 Million pilots. We have registered +2500 flight hours and +1500 pilots so far, it is fully compliant with EU regulations. We’ve started to internationalize and it is supported by EASA and IAA (authorities).The forecasted ROI is 4,0 after Y5 and we estimate a 2 year pay-back period for the total 1.5M€ investment with the creation of a minimum of 7 additional jobs
