Next-Generation equipment tools and mission-critical strategies for first responders

With the evolving threat of climate change and the consequences of industrial accidents to becoming more severe, there is an increasing need for First Responders to access reliable and agile information management systems that offer as higher Situational Awareness and better Common Operational Picture. To match with current trends, the RESPOND-A project aims at developing holistic and easy-to-use solutions for First Responders by bringing together the complementary strengths of its Investigators in 5G wireless communications, Augmented and Virtual Reality, autonomous robot and unmanned aerial vehicle coordination, intelligent wearable sensors and smart monitoring, geovisual analytics and immersive geospatial data analysis, passive and active localisation and tracking, and interactive multi-view 360o video streaming. The synergy of such cutting-edge technological advancements is likely to provide high-end and continuous flows of data, voice and video information to First Responders and their Command & Control Centres for predicting and assessing the various incidents readily and reliably, and saving lives more efficiently and effectively, while maximising the safeguarding of themselves, before, during and after disasters. To this end, RESPOND-A envisions at exercising First Responders for getting familiar with the project technological outcomes, and demonstrating their real-world performance and effectiveness in the classified training facilities of our Responder Partners under hydrometeorological, geophysical and technological disaster scenarios.
Long-Range coupling of hole spins on a silicon chip

With the miniaturization of electronic devices, the semiconductor industry has to deal with complex technical barriers and is forced to introduce novel and innovative concepts. The project proposal is exactly in line with this new paradigm as it proposes to divert CMOS technology to explore a new path for quantum spintronics. Concretely the project aims at using spin-orbit interaction present in the valence band of silicon to drive ultra-fast and ultra-coherent hole spin quantum bits (qubits). The proposal builds on the first demonstration by the principal investigator of a hole spin qubit electrically driven in silicon.
While spins are excellent quantum bits, their long-range coupling remains a challenge to tackle towards complex quantum computing architectures. Here I propose to take up this challenge using a microwave photon as a quantum mediator between qubits in silicon. 
The LONGSPIN project presents a unique approach by leveraging a standard silicon-on-insulator CMOS process for the implementation of the qubits co-integrated with superconducting microwave resonators. 
This research project will provide a CMOS quantum toolkit with optimized designs and materials for fast and coherent qubits with a profound understanding of the physical limitations to hole spin coherence and hole qubit gate fidelity in silicon.  Eventually a microwave photon used as a quantum bus will allow the transfer of quantum information between distant spin qubits.
The Relationship among Selling Price of Houses,Land Price and Rental Price in China

This paper maintains that there exists an effective housing behind the three markets:selling market of houses,land market and rental market. This implicit effective housing price is a common factor which could be for long driving prices in those three markets inherently. We implement Gonzalo-Granger permanent-instantaneous model and Hasbrouck information share model to make an empirical analysis of the Chinese housing price index in the long term,factorizing the long-memory components to get each price's contribution and the results of price discovery; we also adopt Granger causality test and the analysis of impulse response function from the perspective of short term. The results show that in a long term,the selling price of houses will be dominating in the Implicit Effective Housing Price,and in a short term,there will be a significant mutual causal relationship between land price and housing price; moreover,the rental market remains relatively isolated,with little influence on the forming system of house price.
Preserved Dendritic Cell HLA-DR Expression and Reduced Regulatory T Cell Activation in Asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax Infection

Clinical illness with Plasmodium falciparum or Plasmodium vivax compromises the function of dendritic cells (DC) and expands regulatory T (Treg) cells. Individuals with asymptomatic parasitemia have clinical immunity, restricting parasite expansion and preventing clinical disease. The role of DC and Treg cells during asymptomatic Plasmodium infection is unclear. During a cross-sectional household survey in Papua, Indonesia, we examined the number and activation of blood plasmacytoid DC (pDC), CD141(+), and CD1c(+) myeloid DC (mDC) subsets and Treg cells using flow cytometry in 168 afebrile children (of whom 15 had P. falciparum and 36 had P. vivax infections) and 162 afebrile adults (of whom 20 had P. falciparum and 20 had P. vivax infections), alongside samples from 16 patients hospitalized with uncomplicated malaria. Unlike DC from malaria patients, DC from children and adults with asymptomatic, microscopy-positive P. vivax or P. falciparum infection increased or retained HLA-DR expression. Treg cells in asymptomatic adults and children exhibited reduced activation, suggesting increased immune responsiveness. The pDC and mDC subsets varied according to clinical immunity (asymptomatic or symptomatic Plasmodium infection) and, in asymptomatic infection, according to host age and parasite species. In conclusion, active control of asymptomatic infection was associated with and likely contingent upon functional DC and reduced Treg cell activation.
Prototype system for a copernicus co2 service

To support EU countries in assessing their progress for reaching their targets agreed in the Paris Agreement, the European Commission has clearly stated that a way to monitor anthropogenic CO2 emissions is needed. Such a capacity would deliver consistent and reliable information to support policy- and decision-making processes. To maintain Europe’s independence in this domain, it is imperative that the EU establishes an observation-based operational anthropogenic CO2 emissions Monitoring and Verification Support (MVS) capacity as part of its Copernicus programme.
The CoCO2 Coordination and Support Action is intended as a continuation of the CO2 Human Emissions (CHE) project, led by ECMWF. In the Work Programme, ECMWF is identified as the predefined beneficiary tasked to further develop the prototype system for the foreseen MVS capacity together with partners principally based on the CHE consortium. In addition, ECMWF will continue some of the work initiated in the VERIFY project as well.
The main objective of CoCO2 is to perform R&D activities identified as a need in the CHE project and strongly recommended by the European Commission's CO2 monitoring Task Force. The activities shall sustain the development of a European capacity for monitoring anthropogenic CO2 emissions. The activities will address all components of the system, such as atmospheric transport models, re-analysis, data assimilation techniques, bottom-up estimation, in-situ networks and ancillary measurements needed to address the attribution of CO2 emissions. The aim is to have prototype systems at the required spatial scales ready by the end of the project as input for the foreseen Copernicus CO2 service element.
Dissemination of the European measures for Renewable Energy Shared and Sustainable: analysis of a practical case

The self-production and distribution, on local scale, of clean energy is today the new frontier of a radical change in the energy model, possible by the widespread use of renewable sources and the innovation. An essential change to concretely counteract the climate change. In this evolving scenario has developed in recent years the "prosumer" a subject, from the small business to the family, which at the same time acts as producer and consumer. The next challenge is that of the "energy communities": RESS helps the dissemination of this collective and cooperative approach. Specifically RESS disseminate the methodology and culture useful for planning experimental experiences of energy communities in areas where this experiences are lacking, in light of a growing sensitivity to these issues of the local communities involved, both citizenship and institutions. The approximately 2,400 energy cooperatives, based on renewables, already active throughout Europe and involving almost one million citizens, are largely concentrated in northern Europe, particularly in Germany, Denmark, Austria and Great Britain. In Italy there are a few dozen cases; in the Balkan countries awaiting accession to the EU such as Albania and Montenegro such experiences are completely absent. So far European states on the subject of "energy cooperation" have moved independently and, at times, inconsistent in the absence of uniform European standards, methodologies and policies. This gap was filled thanks to the Directive (EU2018/2001), of 11 December 2018 of the European Parliament and of the Council, on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources, in which, appears for the first time the definition of "energy community". The "renewable energy community" is intended as a real legal entity "the primary purpose of which is to provide environmental, economic or social community benefits for its shareholders or members or for the local areas where it operates, rather than financial profits.
Clinical trial of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (asc) in the treatment of mild to moderate osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis (OA) is an incurable disease that has evaded pharmacological interference, biologic therapy or surgical intervention to prevent disease progression. Currently, OA is designated the 11th highest contributor (of 291 diseases) of global disability. In the absence of effective treatment options, cellular therapies using mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have emerged as potential candidates to overcome this clinical short-coming.  Autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) are attractive for cellular therapy given the abundance of tissue, high frequency of MSCs and minimally invasive harvest procedure. The EU consortium ADIPOA has shown in a ‘first in man’ 2-centre Phase I safety study that intraarticular injection of a single dose of autologous ASCs to the knee (18 patients, 12 month follow-up) was well-tolerated, had no adverse effects, and resulted in an improvement in pain score and functional outcome. 
ADIPOA2 will deliver a large-scale clinical trial in regenerative medicine for OA.  The purpose of the project is to design and implement a phase IIb study to assess the safety and efficacy of autologous (patient-derived) ACSs in the treatment of advanced OA of the knee.  The cells will be prepared from samples of adipose tissue harvested from patients by lipoaspiration.  
ADIPOA2 will comprise a multi-centre, randomized clinical trial comparing culture-expanded, autologous adult ASCs in subjects with knee OA with another widely used therapeutic approach for knee degeneration (injection of Hyaluronan).  There are two large elements of the study: (1) the production of consistent batches of high-quality autologous ASCs under GMP-compliant conditions and (2) delivery of these cell doses to patients in a trial which will meet all national and European regulatory and ethical standards and which will have sufficient statistical power to provide an unambiguous and definitive assessment of safety and efficacy.
ONE-TIME KEY AND DIAMETER MESSAGE AUTHENTICATION PROTOCOL FORPROXY MOBILE IPV6

The working group of NetLMM has proposed a new approach, known as network-based mobility management protocol that is actively standardized by Internet Engineering Task Force called Proxy Mobile IPv6 where many mobility signaling messages are performed by a network entity on behalf of a mobile host. Proxy Mobile IPv6 is an effective mobility management protocol for next generation wireless networks that are expected to enable network access ubiquity. Proxy Mobile IPv6 has salient features that attract a lot of attention among the telecommunication and Internet communities. However, Proxy Mobile IPv6 stills suffer from lengthy handover latency and packet loss when Mobile Host moves away to a new network with high speed mobility during the handover process. In order to improve the performance of Proxy Mobile IPv6, we proposed a solution scheme with integration of Media Independent Handover and neighbor discovery message of IPv6 to reduce handover latency and packet loss. But, this proposed protocol does not have methods to prevent security threats such as replay attack and key exposure when mobile host first enters into Proxy Mobile IPv6 domain and also during the handover process. In order to protect this proposed protocol, an authentication method based on the authentication protocol is presented in this paper that can prevent security threats. Also, this authentication method reduces authentication latency.
The application research of Misoprostol in abortion patients

Objective To investigate the application of Misoprostol in abortion patients. Methods 384 cases earlier pregnant patients has been chosen and their clinical material was restropectively analyzed in different group(via mouth and vagina). Results On completely abortion ratio, control group is 95.3% and higher than 84.9% of blank group. But there is no difference on abortion time. On blood quantity and complications, control group has significant advantages than blank group. Conclusion As a clinical drug, Misoprostol is stable,easy to store and quick absorption time. And curing effect is better via vigina than via mouth. So it should be widely used in primary hospital.
Production method for ironless electric motors

Ironless electric motors are lighter than legacy iron-cored electric motors given the same power output, but typically costs much more. Alva's patent-pending Fibre Printing production technology promises a reduction in production cost of ironless motors, and an increase in motor performance, finally solving the production bottleneck that has kept ironless motor and generator technology from reaching their potential in many markets as a technically superior choice over conventional motor types. 

The main objective of the PROMINEL project is to produce a prototype demonstrator production line for electric motors based on Alva's novel Fibre Printing technology. Alva will use the new production line for fast up-scaling of the company's proprietary motor designs, acting on a unique market opportunity in the commercial UAV market by offering a lighter and more energy efficient electric motor product for aerospace propulsion systems. 

After successful market penetration in the commercial UAV sector, the Fibre Printing technology has potential to also impact other industries where ironless technology is higly beneficial, including wind power generators, medical devices, robotics, precision manufacturing equipment and automotive and marine propulsion systems.
Cape York Peninsula, Australia: A frontier region undergoing a multifunctional transition with indigenous engagement

Within Australia’s tropical savanna zone, the northernmost frontier regions have experienced the swiftest transition towards multifunctional occupance, as a formerly flimsy productivist mode is readily displaced by more complex modes, with greater prominence given to consumption, protection and Indigenous values. Of these frontier regions, Cape York Peninsula has become the focus for increasingly entrenched, complex contests about regional futures, with the transition towards complex multifunctionality demonstrated in the 1970, 1990 and 2010 tenure maps. Transition dynamics are explored in tables summarising functional trajectories at these benchmark years, also with an examination of non-Indigenous and Indigenous driving forces, actors, agendas, power relations and decision processes. In this increasingly contested arena, currently the pivotal divide is between traditionalist/localist against modernist/reformist/regionalist visions of Indigenous futures, with this divide influencing the agendas and strategies of other major participants, notably conservationists and state and federal governments. The most probable functional trajectory towards 2030 can be identified, based on the partial resolution of the current flux in land tenures , property rights, power relations and economic prospects. The peninsula yields further evidence on the links between multifunctional dynamics, contestability and shifting place identities. ► Cape York has undergone a rapid transition towards complex multifunctional occupance. ► The transition has been driven by emergent Indigenous and conservation values. ► This transition is documented in the 1970, 1990 and 2010 land tenure maps. ► Driving forces, actors, power relations and decision processes are scrutinised. ► The region’s functionality and identity remain contested, uncertain and in process.
The making and awaking of the european far right: a qualitative analysis of far right supporters in denmark and poland

This project will study the rise of far right parties and movements in Poland and Denmark. First, I will investigate the extent to which the far right’s growing support stems from some individuals adopting far right-wing ideologies (the making of new supporters), and from existing sympathizers becoming active in their support (the awakening of existing supporters). To do this, I will conduct in-depth interviews with far right supporters who voted for a far right party, whether right-wing populist or radical right, in either 2015, 2019, or both. An analysis of the informants’ life histories—specifically how their perceptions, values and behaviours fit into broader socio-political contexts—will improve contemporary understandings of the nature and causes of growing far right support. Second, I will examine how religion, gender and political opportunity structures contribute to the making or awakening of far right supporters. Specifically, by comparing the life histories, perceptions, values, and behaviour of far right supporters in two disparate settings—Denmark and Poland—I will examine how (1) the degree of national secularism/religiosity, and the structure of religious institutions to which religious supporters belong, (2) the strength of left-wing political alternatives, and the position of far right parties (majority/minority) in government, and (3) hegemonic conceptions of gender roles and norms, shape why and how far right supporters come to adopt far right ideologies, and why and when they choose to act on those ideals. Third, this project will provide important new evidence about the growth of far right support in a Central-Eastern European context, which has remained relatively understudied despite a significant rise of the far right.
South East Europe improved virtual accessibility through joint initiatives facilitating the rollout of broadband networks 

1. Background and objectives Access to information, broadband connectivity and financing of virtual accessibility are key components necessary for the development, adoption and use of ICT in the economy and society. Inadequacies in the telecommunication infrastructure and accessibility to services among the individual countries and regions of the programme area hamper significantly competitiveness and cohesion in South East Europe. Market mechanisms fail to address adequately the low population density and/or rural and remote areas. These problems have been widely acknowledged at European and national policy level. Member states and regions in the SEE area have adopted virtual accessibility strategies, but further work needs to be done particularly in elaborating comprehensive operational plans and mature implementing measures to achieve the objectives set regarding the broadband connectivity and accessibility of services. SIVA aims to contribute to the improvement of the accessibility of SEE territories through broadband services, as substitute for and supplementing physical accessibility and thus to the narrowing the digital gap in South East Europe. 2. Activities planned - Identification, assessment and analysis of the needs related to virtual accessibility. - Promotion of the exchange of experiences, consultation processes and coordination of policies and strategies related to the development of broadband infrastructures. - Development, testing and assessment of a transnational mechanism on the quality of experience regarding virtual accessibility, as an information basis to support decisions and strategies planning. - Promotion of the adoption of a common technical approach facilitated by geo-spatial analysis tools as a means to improve planning of network deployment. - Facilitation of reducing the network deployment costs through common policy approaches on mapping existing infrastructures and increasing their availability to other/new operators. - Identification, analysis and exchange of good practices and investment strategies. - Increasing awareness, promoting and disseminating the project results and knowledge beyond the consortium. - Identification of financing mechanisms allowing new public and private investments and facilitate the set up of public-private partnerships to invest in virtual accessibility. - Set up of agreements and political commitments with relevant decision makers and stakeholders for the use and promotion of the project's results after the end of the project.
Precision tracking with tools from astrophysics

In our ERC-funded project we have used interferometric techniques from radio astronomy to precisely localize bunches of cosmic ray particles rushing through our Earth atmosphere at light speed. Here we want to use this technique to provide precise and robust tracking of tracking of vehicles, such as robotic lawnmowers, ships and planes. Localizing vehicles as precisely as possible has become an ever more important aspect of modern day life, as is evident from the success of GPS. However, under certain circumstances GPS will not work well, either because the vehicle is indoors or the accuracy of GPS-systems is not sufficient. To achieve the feat of catching particles at light speed in our ERC project, we combined the knowledge from radio astronomy, particle physics and modern digital data processing. We developed solar-powered smart receivers linked over large areas into a single interferometer and developed software tools that allow us to do radio interferometric measurements in the presence of distorting signals. In the past, radio astronomical techniques were too compute- and power-intensive for commercial applications; however, the game changers are now powerful mobile phone processors developed for the consumer market. As a result we can in principle robustly localize radio sources to within a fraction of a wavelength – i.e., anywhere from millimetres to metres depending on the radio frequency. The concept is scalable, can be used to measure accurate locations over distances from metres to thousands of kilometres, and can be employed on earth or from space. The earth-based applications has a potential economic and social impact for instance via the tracking of objects (parcels or people) indoors, while the space-based application will allow for continuous tracking of ships and planes. The main goal of this proposal is to prepare for the launch of a start-up country that can commercialize this knowledge.
