Development of energy management integrated circuits for any-many-multi micro energy harvesting

Creating battery-free “self-sustaining” sensor systems is a key requirement to realising the forecasted billions of interconnected sensors within the Internet of Things. Micro energy harvesting, scavenging energy from the ambient environment, through the use of autonomous micro energy sources (AMES), is an ideal solution; avoiding the need for regular battery replacement.

Along with energy harvesters and energy storage, the major component in an AMES solution is an Energy Management Integrated Circuit (EMIC). The key technical challenges are that each type of energy-harvester has very different electrical characteristics and that the ambient energy is not available all of the time. A single EMIC is required that can effectively harvest from any energy harvester type. No such EMIC exists today.

At Trameto, we are developing a patent protected portfolio of EMICs named ‘HarvestAll’. These devices will deliver any-many-multi energy harvesting functionality to permit applications to harvest all types of ambient energy now, enable the design and development of next generation AMES, and allow the creation of novel AMES applications that were not previously possible. HarvestAll products will be exported to global customers with whom we have built strong relationships through strategic and aggressive business development activities with the support of H2020, Innovate UK, and private seed-funded projects.

Through our customer interactions, we have developed a number of fully qualified, early revenue case study opportunities which will allow us to showcase the functionality of our HarvestAll portfolio.

Rev.Ng: a tool for security assessments of emerging and legacy platforms

Cyberattacks are one of the most challenging threats modern societies have to face.
In fact, along with the growth of IT infrastructure, threats against them have been raising too.

While a lot is being done, certain environments, in particular in the IoT area, are receiving little attention by cybersecurity experts.

One of the key reasons for this is the almost total lack of tools to perform security assessments on them.
Specifically, these areas lack reverse engineering tools, which allow analysts to analyze software for which the source code is not available.

The absence of reverse engineering tools makes it extremely hard, if not impossible, to perform security assessments on such platforms.
The reason for this is the dominance of the market leader (turnover 14000000+ EUR in 2017, EBITDA of 13000000+), which has little incentive to innovate in market niches which would justify the investment.

In this proposal, we aim to bring to commercial maturity rev.ng, a tool developed by our company.
rev.ng is the result of a multi-year research effort, with the aim of being able to handle a diverse set of platforms in a unified way.
This approach is radically revolutionary in the reverse engineering field and allows us to target market niches which would not be profitable to our competitors.

Our product has already been validated both by SMEs performing security assessments and large corporations performing large scale analysis of software such as Google.

The goal of this proposal is getting the resources to refine some critical aspects of the feasibility study we already performed, that will lead us to devise the best path to transform our small company, currently mainly focused on consulting, into a scalable company developing a state-of-the-art reverse engineering product.

Material counting technologies in numerical cognition

Material counting technologies (MaCoTech) play a critical role in developing human numerical concepts like numbers, numerical relations, and arithmetical operations. Yet today, our understanding of how these concepts emerge is still very restricted, as the influential effects of prehistoric MaCoTech and Ancient Near Eastern (ANE) mathematics are difficult to assess and have been mostly neglected in modern-day research.
The comparison of ANE MaCoTech to its extant counterparts of Oceania will allow investigating the impact of multiple MaCoTech on numerical elaboration, and to gain a deeper understanding of the evolution of numerical concepts in socio-historical contexts. This will include the first-ever generation of a dataset of ANE and Oceanian MaCoTech and the development of innovative strategies for cross-cultural data analysis. The project will apply state-of-the-art paradigms on the nature of human cognition to improve our understanding of how MaCoTech structure numerical concepts, which will generate novel insights into numerical origins and the role of materiality in human cognition. It will also engender new understandings of psychological–behavioral–material interactions with potential utility in cognitive-psychological research.
As a cognitive archaeologist with a strong background in the materiality of numbers, I want to be among the first to work at a novel interdisciplinary crossway connecting the fields of archaeology, psychology, anthropology, linguistics, and Assyriology. With a renowned researcher in numerical cognition as my supervisor and my own expertise in ANE number systems, ANE archaeology, and philosophy of mind, this will bring me in the optimal position to foster an international high-level career in numerical cognition research at the interface of multiple disciplines. This will be substantiated by the mutual transfer of knowledge as well as national and international long-term research synergies.
Comparison of self-timed ring and inverter ring oscillators as entropy sources in FPGAs

Many True Random Numbers Generators (TRNG) use jittery clocks generated in ring oscillators as a source of entropy. This is especially the case in Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), where sources of randomness are very limited. Inverter Ring Oscillators (IRO) are relatively well characterized as entropy sources. However, it is known that they are very sensitive to working conditions. This fact makes them vulnerable to attacks. On the other hand, Self-Timed Rings (STR) are currently considered as a promising solution to generate robust clock signals. Although many studies deal with their temporal behavior and robustness in Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC), equivalent study does not exist for FPGAs. Furthermore, these oscillators were not analyzed and characterized as entropy sources aimed at TRNG design. In this paper, we analyze STRs as entropy sources for TRNGs implemented in FPGAs. Next, we compare STRs and IROs when serving as sources of randomness. We show that STRs represent very interesting alternative to IROs: they are more robust to environmental fluctuations and they exhibit lower extra-device frequency variations.
Interfaces in opto-electronic thin film multilayer devices

Development of new materials over the past decade paved the way for organic/hybrid electronics into commercial applications. Now, perfection of material interfaces in organic/hybrid thin-film devices is key to drive the technology further and enable new, more advanced applications. INFORM offers a paradigm shift from focusing on materials to focusing on devices by probing, modelling and controlling relevant processes that take place at interfaces, e.g. charge transfer, injection and collection. By training researchers in this exciting, highly multidisciplinary area, INFORM contributes to the need for skilled, knowledgeable researchers in the field of multilayer thin-film devices in Europe. INFORM will generate fundamental insights and apply them to improve the performance and reliability of relevant devices that will allow INFORM’s industrial partners to grow their markets and take full advantage of the low-temperature, low-cost and large-area processing potential of new generation semiconductors. The challenges are wide-ranging and thus require a cross-European, multidisciplinary, intersectorial and multifaceted approach. The INFORM network consists of partners with complementary skills and toolboxes, including 9 academic groups fully equipped, experienced and knowledgeable in multilayer device research and supervision. The involvement of 4 non-academic partners at the highest level, through supervision of 2 ESRs and secondments, ensures ESR exposure to the industrial workplace and simultaneously provides benefits to the non-academic partners. Complementary training activities in personal skills (e.g writing and communicating), is given by a specialist partner. The combination of high level research and intense training endows the ESRs with multidisciplinary know-how and hands-on skills for careers that impact not only the field of multilayer devices, but also the broader quests for renewable energy resources and development of nanotechnology.
Start: science through art

RN2019 Turkey is organized in Ankara by the Science and Society Center of Middle East Technical University (ODTÜ) to promote public recognition of “Science through ART – StART” and thus reveal the value of thinking outside the box. Art is utilized as an overarching theme because of its familiarity, which has great potential to break conceived barriers between science and society. The setting will be around five key areas each corresponding to a branch of art, namely drawing-painting, sculpture, architecture, music-dance, photography. Around each of these areas, we will host activities where invited science and art communicators will explain the many interactions between science and art through their works. That is, it will show how art can be inspired by science and vice-versa and how art and science can collaborate to better understand the world around us and increase our welfare. Our science communicators are mainly experienced researchers, but then again scientists and artists will be brought to the same platform since they both strive to see the world in new ways and communicate that vision; and thus “are more alike than different”. We aim to reach 10,000 on-site participants and 1,000,000 on-line or indirect beneficiaries regardless of their age and background. Nonetheless, special focus will be given to students ranging from pre-schoolers to high school students. The ultimate messages conveyed via StART will be “Science and art are indispensable to the human need of understanding the world around us.”, “A research career on science and art can be fun!”, and “Researchers are everywhere!”. Celebrating artistic creations and scientific discoveries can be a truly memorable experience for our beneficiaries. For younger audiences, the event may provide a life-changing moment, when they not only recognize the importance of science and how imagination informs scientific discovery, but also get to meet and talk to researchers and be drawn closer to careers in science.
Adaptive Licensing: Taking the Next Step in the Evolution of Drug Approval

Traditional drug licensing approaches are based on binary decisions. At the moment of licensing, an experimental therapy is presumptively transformed into a fully vetted, safe, efficacious therapy. By contrast, adaptive licensing (AL) approaches are based on stepwise learning under conditions of acknowledged uncertainty, with iterative phases of data gathering and regulatory evaluation. This approach allows approval to align more closely with patient needs for timely access to new technologies and for data to inform medical decisions. The concept of AL embraces a range of perspectives. Some see AL as an evolutionary step, extending elements that are now in place. Others envision a transformative framework that may require legislative action before implementation. This article summarizes recent AL proposals; discusses how proposals might be translated into practice, with illustrations in different therapeutic areas; and identifies unresolved issues to inform decisions on the design and implementation of AL.
Materijali obnovljivog porijekla u izradi kompozita

The reduction of petroleum resources and awareness of global issues have led to extraordinary achievements in the field of materials science. The development of composites from renewable resources is increasing worldwide. Thanks to a large number of good properties and characteristics, composites from renewable resources appear as a „green“ alternative to glass fiber reinforced composites. There are several types of environmentally friendly composites, and the most significant are those containing natural fibers as reinforcement and biopolymers as matrix. High cost of biodegradable polymer matrix represents a major limitation when it comes to its wide usage, and because of that natural fibers (in combination with thermoplastics and thermosets) are imposed as an acceptable choice when developing composites from renewable resources. This paper summarizes the properties of natural fibers, biopolymer matrices, and composites from renewable resources, pointing out the advantages and disadvantages in their application.
Water-Cluster-Detecting Breath Sensor and Applications in Cars for Detecting Drunk or Drowsy Driving

Developing safety measures to prevent drunk and drowsy driving is a major technical challenge for the car industry. I have developed a system for this that involves the water-cluster-detecting (WDC) breath sensor. The WCD breath sensor detects breath by measuring electric currents of positively or negatively charged water clusters in breath that are separated by using an electric field. The WCD breath-alcohol sensor couples the WCD breath sensor with an alcohol sensor and simultaneously detects the electrical signals of both breath and alcohol in the breath. This ensures that the sample is from a person's breath, not an artificial source. Furthermore, the WCD breath sensor can detect breath from about 50 cm and can also test the level of alertness of a subject sitting in the driver's seat of a car. This is done by measuring the point of time at which the breathing changes from conscious, such as in pursed-lip breathing, to unconscious, such as when the driver becomes drowsy. This is the first result that one device has been used to detect both drunk and drowsy driving.

The DeLight ultra-high resolution laser printing technology enables mass-customization of flat-optics, with a wide application field, such as opthalmic lenses, advanced optical filters, and optical sensor technology for the Internet of Things (IoT). DTU has filed three international patent applications on the technology and published the research results in high impact journals (Nature Nanotechnology, Science Advances, Nature Reviews Materials). At present, the technology is  at TRL4. The technology is demonstrated in the lab. The main project activity will be: 1) Develop a business case, 2) Identify the market segments and needs, 3) asses technology with end-users and 4) initiate a University spin-off.
Monasteri piemontesi nell’altomedioevo (secoli VIII-X)

Sin dall’alto medioevo, la presenza monastica in Piemonte trova aree favorevoli e alquanto diversificate in cui insediarsi. La storiografia degli ultimi decenni ha avviato una messa a punto dei dati noti, anche se una visione complessiva stenta ancora al momento a delinearsi, al di là di approfondimenti su siti puntuali. Partendo da questa premessa, e in forza delle novità che l’archeologia e la revisione delle fonti scritte hanno prodotto su diversi contesti, è intenzione di questo intervento tentare di proporre una lettura complessiva del primo monachesimo piemontese. Il fine non è quello di trarne un quadro esaustivo, al momento non possibile, quanto definirne linee di sviluppo e suggerire qualche spunto di riflessione per future ricerche.
Statistical physics of immune-viral co-evolution

The immune system within each individual host destroys viruses, which manage to escape immunity on the global scale. Recent experiments show population-level responses of both immune repertoires and viruses, and a history dependence of their functional phenotypes. This constrained long-term co-evolution of immune receptor and viral populations is a stochastic many-body problem occurring at many scales, in which the response emerges based on the past states of both the repertoire and viral populations. STRUGGLE infers the details of viral-immune receptor interactions from functional datasets to obtain a predictive statistical model of co-evolution between immune repertoires and viruses.

STRUGGLE covers the many scales of immune-virus interactions: from the molecular level, analyzing high-throughput mutational screens of libraries of antibodies binding a given antigen, through the population-level response of immune repertoires, analyzing next-generation sequencing of vaccine-stimulated whole repertoires, to the population level, modeling the long term co-evolution of both repertoires and viruses.

STRUGGLE combines a statistical data analysis approach with cross-scale many-body physics to: 
- build a molecular model for antigen-receptor binding;
- learn statistical models for repertoire-level response to viral antigen stimulation;
- validate dynamical models of interactions between antigen and immune receptors;
- theoretically evaluate the predictive power of the immune system and viruses;
- and predict virus strains and immune responses based on past infections.

The outcomes of STRUGGLE include the quantitative characterization of the human T-cell response to flu vaccines, with implications for vaccination strategies, and the trout B-cell response to life-threatening rhabdoviruses, which aids vaccine design for fish, with wide use in agriculture. The statistical properties of the co-evolutionary process are needed for informed development of immunotherapies.

Sustainable InterRegional cOastal & Cruise maritime tourism though COoperation and joint planning

With €40 billion economic impact and 6 mil. passengers, cruise tourism plays a key role in Europe and especially in the MED, being the top cruise market and amidst strong socio-economic pressures. As cruise tourism grows, the challenge for the Mediterranean is to exploit its full potential in a (environmentally, socially & economically) sustainable way. _x000D_
Addressing this challenge is hindered by three factors:1) existing knowledge is insufficient & data gaps still exist;2) coastal regions struggle to fully capture benefits generated by cruise tourism; 3) coordination of strategies and policies at regional & transnational level is limited._x000D_
SIROCCO has the ambition of tackling those problems by providing:_x000D_
1. An integrated view of the current state of Mediterranean cruise tourism (as a whole and per segment) and its impacts (environmental, economic, societal)._x000D_
2. A foresight of Mediterranean cruise tourism for the following decades._x000D_
3. Evidence-based, transferable recommendations on developing sustainable & responsible Cruise Value Chains in the MED ._x000D_
4. Coordinated strategies & policies at regional and transnational level regarding the development of a sustainable and responsible cruise maritime/coastal tourism._x000D_
As cruise tourism is transnational in its service offering, its benefits rely on transnational synergies and any negative impacts cannot be confined within one Member State, SIROCCO employs a transnational approach, reflected both in its content and its partnership.
