description: This refined Plan of Dissemination, Communication and Education (DCEP) is a collection of actions that will result in the visibility of the EdiCitNet project, the global application of its results and in establishment and support for the EdiCitNet network during the project period and beyond. As a fundamental element of EdiCitNet's visibility strategy, this plan is a lever to reach out to society as a whole. Especially the involvement of the broadest possible range of stakeholders and the permanent highlighting of the benefits of Edible City Solutions (ECS) for urban society are driving the desired paradigm shift towards sustainable lifestyles and resilient cities. The visibility of results, findings and outcomes, as well as “call to action” refers to specific target audiences or groups. Therefore, the visibility measures are structured according to their target audiences. However, there is no clear separation between the messages to the different groups, rather the messages and information are used and filtered differently. The communication measures are now pre-defined although this is a living document.

description: The eBetharké Syriac Digital Library Portal is a collaborative effort between the libraries at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey; and the Beth Mardutho Syriac Institute, a traditional library of texts; to create a specialized digital library collection online. This digital library features content in and relating to Syriac, an Aramaic dialect spoken in the 1st century A.D. and for which a great deal of historically significant documents were written during the period. This task required effort and research on multiple fronts, including software development; collaboration on technical, interpersonal, and policy-based levels; and in overcoming challenges related to the predominant computing platforms installed and in use by potential users of this digital library. This collaboration provided significant new challenges and learning experiences among the staff who worked on this project and provides a base upon which our digital library platforms can diversify and be more culturally aware.

Social cost of carbon
Integrated assessment modeling

description: Drawing upon climate change damage specifications previously proposed in the literature that the authors have calibrated to a common level of damages at 2.5°C, the authors examine the effect upon the social cost of carbon (SCC) of varying damage specifications in a DICE-like integrated assessment model. They find that SCC estimates are highly sensitive to uncertainty in extrapolating damages to high temperatures at moderate-to-high levels of risk aversion, but only modestly so at low levels of risk aversion. While in the absence of risk aversion, all of the SCC estimates but one agree within a factor of two, with a moderate level of risk aversion included, the differences among estimates grow greatly. For example, one composite damage specification, combining elements of different literature-derived specifications and roughly taking into account calibration uncertainty, yields SCC values 32% higher than the standard quadratic DICE damage function in the absence of risk aversion. With a coefficient of relative risk aversion of 1.4, however, the same uncertain specification yields SCC values almost triple those of the standard function. The authors conclude that failure to consider damages uncertainty and risk aversion jointly can lead to significant underestimation of the SCC.

Intelligent Model Selection for Hillclimbing Search in Computer-Aided Design

Publisher: name: Rutgers University
Year: 1993

description: Models of physical systems can dier according to computational cost, accuracy and precision, among other things. Depending on the problem solving task at hand, different models will be appropriate. Several investigators have recently developed methods of automatically selecting among multiple models of physical systems. Our research is novel in that we are developing model selection techniques specifically suited to computer-aided design. Our approach is based on the idea that artifact performance models for computer-aided design should be chosen in light of the design decisions they are required to support. We have developed a technique called Gradient Magnitude Model Selection" (GMMS), which embodies this principle. GMMS operates in the context of a hill climbing search process. It selects the simplest model that meets the needs of the hill climbing algorithm in which it operates. We are using the domain of sailing yacht design as a testbed for this research. We have implemented GMMS and used it in hill climbing search to decide between a computationally expensive potential- ow program and an algebraic approximation to analyze the performance of sailing yachts. Experimental tests show that GMMS makes the design process faster than it would be if the most expensive model were used for all design evaluations. GMMS achieves this performance improvement with little or no sacrifice in the quality of the resulting design.
Implementing network file system policies with FileWall

Publisher: name: Rutgers University
Year: 2006

description: Managing network file systems in large deployments is a critical challenge facing administrators today. Network file systems are widely used, are standardized, and provide acceptable performance. These systems are designed for the least common denominator of functionality, across all deployments to enable widespread use across diverse client systems. Unfortunately, specific deployment scenarios require different policies that govern file system access. The rigid structure of current network file systems makes modifying policies and mechanisms equally difficult. In this paper, we present a novel approach to implement network file system policies through message transformation, external to clients and servers. We present FileWall, a file system proxy, through which administrators can easily extend network file system policies for monitoring, access control, maintenance, and semantic extensions. We also present a policy specification language, FWL, which allows administrators to specify policies in a few lines, without being encumbered with implementation details. We have implemented FileWall using the Click modular router framework for the NFS protocol, and present solutions for four real-world administrative problems using our system — maintaining per-client file system statistics, implementing temporal access control, improving file handle security, and supporting client transparent failover. Through our evaluation, we show that FileWall imposes minimal delays, the interposition overheads are low, and the performance of FileWall is comparable to a simple network tunnel.
The targum (1922:Dec. 12 - 1922:Dec. 19)

Year: 1922

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: Many of the Edible City Solutions (ECS) supported by EdiCitNet have the potential to develop and provide more competitive products or services. These potential scenarios include the entire value-chain of food production, distribution and consumption as well as related services such as environmental education. Bringing ECS to global and local markets is a key-element of the project’s up-scaling and knowledge transfer strategy. For this reason, EdiCitNet is developing an online marketplace for ECS business development as an integral part of the EdiCitNet public website. The goal is to connect ECS, entrepreneurs and interested parties at the local, regional and global level, enabling global knowledge sharing and ECS replication or benefit from other products and services provided by ECS initiative all over the world. The marketplace is built around the opportunities demonstrated in the EdiCitNet Living Labs and beyond. The “EdiCitNet online Marketplace” is designed as an online meeting place to initiate collaborations promoting the replication and marketing of ECS business models, products and services. Furthermore, the marketplace compiles features and tools that allow the support of a growing buyer/seller community of ECS, promote a diversity of ECS products or services, and drive sales. The main objective is to test the impact and the functionality of an ECS marketplace. During the project time, the results and findings of the activities implemented by the Business Consulting Team (BCT) and the work around the valorization of ECS in the project will feed the marketplace and let it grow into an independent platform, serving as the primary trading place for ECS worldwide. The pilot of the marketplace will be constantly updated and thus naturally lead to a stable and independent marketplace surviving even after the project’ end. Our goal is to establish a sustainable platform, independent of the project website.

Global Inland Capture and Culture Finfisheries Follow Different Trends When Evaluated by the Human Development Index

Year: 2021

description: To assess whether and how socioeconomic factors might be influencing global freshwater finfisheries, inland fishery data reported to the FAO between 1950 and 2015 were grouped by capture and culture, country human development index, plotted, and compared. We found that while capture inland finfishes have greatly increased on a global scale, this trend is being driven almost entirely by poorly developed (Tier-3) countries which also identify only 17% of their catch. In contrast, capture finfisheries have recently plateaued in moderately-developed (Tier-2) countries which are also identifying 16% of their catch but are dominated by a single country, China. In contrast, reported capture finfisheries are declining in well-developed (Tier-1) countries which identify nearly all (78%) of their fishes. Simultaneously, aquacultural activity has been increasing rapidly in both Tier-2 and Tier-3 countries, but only slowly in Tier-1 countries; remarkably, nearly all cultured species are being identified by all tier groups. These distinctly different trends suggest that socioeconomic factors influence how countries report and conduct capture finfisheries. Reported rapid increases in capture fisheries are worrisome in poorly developed countries because they cannot be explained and thus these fisheries cannot be managed meaningfully even though they depend on them for food. Our descriptive, proof-of-concept study suggests that socioeconomic factors should be considered in future, more sophisticated efforts to understand global freshwater fisheries which might include catch reconstruction.

description: Anthranilic acid is an important chemical with recognized industrial values. As a precursor of amino acid tryptophan, anthranilic acid can be over-produced by engineering the tryptophan biosynthesis pathway. In this study, we utilized metabolic engineering approaches to enable anthranilic acid production in bacterium E. coli. Furthermore, an anthranilic acid biosensor20 assisted cell selection technique was adopted to improve the microbial cell population composition and the overall production performance. An anthranilic acid in situ extraction method was also recruited to reduce the product accumulation and facilitate the cell selection. Based on these efforts, the engineered E. coli produced 688 mg/L anthranilic acid from glucose within 48 h. The results of this work hereby demonstrate the effectiveness of coupling biosensor-assisted cell selection and in situ product removal for microbial biosynthesis enhancement.

description: We investigate orthonormality-preserving, C*-conformal and conformal module mappings on Hilbert C*-modules to obtain their general structure. Orthogonality-preserving bounded module maps T act as a multiplication by an element λof the center of the multiplier algebra of the C*-algebra of coefficients combined with an isometric module operator as long as some polar decomposition conditions for the specific element λare fulfilled inside that multiplier algebra. Generally, T always fulfils the equality $ = | λ|^2 < x,y>$ for any elements x,y of the Hilbert C*-module. At the contrary, C*-conformal and conformal bounded C*-linear mappings are shown to be only the positive real multiples of isometric module operators.

description: Evidence based practices (EBPs) in clinical settings interact with and adapt to host organizational characteristics. The contextual factors themselves, surrounding health professions’ practices, also adapt as practices become sustained. The authors assert the need for better planning models toward these contextual factors, the influence of which undergird a well-documented science to practice gap in literature on EBPs. The mechanism for EBP planners to anticipate contextual effects as programs Unfreeze their host settings, create Movement, and become Refrozen (Lewin, 1951) is present in Lewin’s 3-step change model. Planning for contextual change appears equally important as planning for the actual practice outcomes among providers and patients. Two case studies from a Geriatric Education Center network will illustrate the synthesis of Lewin’s three steps with collaborative evaluation principles. The use of the model may become an important tool for continuing education evaluators or organizations beginning a journey toward EBP demonstration projects in clinical settings.

description: Reactive molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a powerful tool to study the reaction mechanism of complex chemical systems. Central to the method is the potential energy surface (PES) that can describe the breaking and formation of chemical bonds. The development of both accurate and efficient PES has attracted significant effort in the past 2 decades. A recently developed deep potential (DP) model has the promise to bring ab initio accuracy to large-scale reactive MD simulations. However, for complex chemical reaction processes like pyrolysis, it remains challenging to generate reliable DP models with an optimal training data set. In this work, a data set construction scheme for such a purpose was established. The employment of a concurrent learning algorithm allows us to maximize the exploration of the chemical space while minimizing the redundancy of the data set. This greatly reduces the cost of computational resources required for ab initio calculations. Based on this method, we constructed a data set for the pyrolysis of n-dodecane, which contains 35 496 structures. The reactive MD simulation with the DP model trained based on this data set revealed the pyrolysis mechanism of n-dodecane in detail, and the simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental measurements. In addition, this data set shows excellent transferability to different long-chain alkanes. These results demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method for constructing training data sets for similar systems.
Magnetically Addressable Hydrogels: Towards 3D Printed Spatiotemporally Resolved Thermal Dissipation and Drug Release

description: Multifunctional nanocomposites which exhibit well-defined physical properties are emerging as components for advanced responsive systems, e.g., in soft robotics or drug delivery. Magnetic nanoparticles embedded in these materials (e.g., hydrogels) are attractive due to their resemblance to the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) for cell support and ability to be manipulated in situ by external magnetic fields. The ability to control the distribution of the nanoparticles has the potential to encode spatiotemporally controlled responses, either directly thermal or to trigger a drug response to manipulate cell response. Controlling this distribution at a high-resolution with spatial resolution <150 µm, sufficiently fine to be of relevance to tissue engineering, is presented. This thesis attempts to contribute knowledge to the development of platforms and analysis for high-resolution magnetic nanoparticle hydrogel gradients. In the first instance, a 3D printing platform is developed of for an extrusion-based approach for manipulating spatial distribution of heat via magnetic hydrogels (Magnetic Nanoflower/PluronicPF127 Hydrogel) in well-defined printed features. Following on, an in-depth study of the thermal response of these gels is described where rules for heat-induction in bulk hydrogels and the heat-dependence on particle concentration, gel volume, and gel exposed surface area are established. High-concentration, high-resolution prints were shown to provide an acceptable thermal response (> 10 °C). Sufficient heat was generated to trigger a dye release potentially modelling future drug release work. This work also explores the contribution of Néel and Brownian relaxation in gels when choosing a magnetic nanoparticle candidate and touches on an alternative route to spatial patterning via curing a gel and immobilising the nanoparticles in an external magnetic field. Finally, using observations gleaned from the work undertaken above, a secondary school experiment was derived to determine the magnetic response of nanoparticles and demonstrate their unique properties to second level students. Overall, the approach developed here is demonstrated to have potential unobserved control over combined spatial and temporal induction of heat, the applications of which are in developing responsive scaffolds, remodelling, and cargo release for applications in regenerative medicine.
OFDI activity and urban-regional development cycles: a co-evolutionary perspective
Creators: name: Cantwell, John
Publisher: name: Rutgers University
Year: 2023

description: While the conventional view primarily relates to efficiency-seeking investments, we argue that most other OFDIs likely have positive effects on income development in the home region. Data on the U.S. urban system illustrates this but also shows that this impact is not equal in all city-regions. We develop an explanation as to why high-income and low-income cities are associated with self-reinforcing cycles of OFDI activity that have different home-region impacts.. Conventional views assume that inward foreign direct investments (IFDIs) have a positive impact on target regions while outward foreign direct investments (OFDIs) are often treated as the flip side of this story, being seen as having negative effects by shifting jobs and income abroad. This paper counters this logic by developing a conceptual argument that systematically distinguishes different types of OFDIs and relates them to economic development effects in the home (investing) region.. Employing a co-evolutionary conceptualization, the paper suggests that many high-income cities are characterized by a virtuous cycle of development where high, successful OFDI activity generates both positive income effects as well as incentives to engage in further OFDIs in the future, thus leading to additional income increases. In contrast, it is suggested that low-income cities are characterized by what we refer to as vicious cycles of development with low OFDI activity, few development impulses and a lack of incentives and capabilities for future investments.. This paper develops a counter-perspective to conventional views of OFDI activity, arguing that these investments have a positive impact on regional income levels. We develop a spatially-sensitive explanation which acknowledges that OFDIs do not trigger a linear process but are associated with diverging inter-urban development paths and may contribute to higher levels of intra-urban inequality. From these findings, we derive conclusions for future research and public policy.

description: The steroid 17β-estradiol (E2) modulates energy homeostasis by reducing feeding behavior and increasing energy expenditure primarily through estrogen receptor α (ERα)-mediated mechanisms. Intact ERαKO female mice develop obesity as adults exhibiting decreased energy expenditure and increased fat deposition. However, intact transgenic female mice expressing a DNA-binding-deficient ERα (KIKO) are not obese and have similar energy expenditure, activity and fat deposition as to wild type (WT) females, suggesting that non-estrogen response element (ERE)-mediated signaling is important in E2 regulation of energy homeostasis. Initial reports did not examine the effects of ovariectomy on energy homeostasis or E2's attenuation of post-ovariectomy body weight gain. Therefore, we sought to determine if low physiological doses of E2 (250 ng QOD) known to suppress post-ovariectomy body weight gain in WT females would suppress body weight gain in ovariectomized KIKO females. We observed that the post-ovariectomy increase in body weight was significantly greater in WT females than in KIKO females. Furthermore, E2 did not significantly attenuate the body weight gain in KIKO females as it did in WT females. E2 replacement suppressed food intake and fat accumulation while increasing nighttime oxygen consumption and activity only in WT females. E2 replacement also increased arcuate POMC gene expression in WT females only. These data suggest that in the intact female, ERE-independent mechanisms are sufficient to maintain normal energy homeostasis and to partially restore the normal response to ovariectomy. However, they are not sufficient for E2's suppression of post-ovariectomy body weight gain and its effects on metabolism and activity.

Training

description: To build the skills of its Data Team, the Rutgers University Libraries have developed an internal Research Data Management course. The RUresearch Data Team brings together subject librarians, metadata librarians, and the technical staff working with the RUresearch data portal. The goal of the course is to instill in all team members a baseline knowledge of all aspects of data management necessary to support faculty's research data needs. The entire team meets together approximately monthly for a two hour class. In between class sessions, group homework assignments and discussion reinforce the concepts. The class modules cover these topics and more: the data model; metadata; controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and linked data; data preservation and reuse; the data lifecycle; use cases; designing a research portal; and workflow management. The presentation will present the findings from interviews of course participants and instructors that explore their reactions to the course. What do subject librarians without prior exposure to data issues take away from it? How does learning about the data needs of researchers affect technical staff? What lessons did the Libraries learn from running such a course? This presentation will provide the answers.

description: Using unique 2019 CaliBRANDO data, we study the effect of public transit proximity on life satisfaction in Cali, Colombia. Public transit proximity is measured in two ways: having a bus stop in one’s neighborhood, or having it accessible within a certain time. Both measures yield similar negative effect sizes of about .3-.4 on 1-10 life satisfaction scale. Such effect size is comparable to a decrease in one’s satisfaction as a result of health deteriorating by one step, say from “very good” to “good.” Bus stop proximity unhappiness is considerable. Results may not generalize to other cities, especially ones having better quality and/or subway systems. As in any non-experimental research, causality may not be present.

Tigres del Norte (Musical group)
Rios, Alfredo
El Komander
Mexico

description: A comparison of two narcocorridos, Los Tigres del Norte’s “Contrabando y traición” (1974) and Alfredo Ríos’s “El Katch” (2009), highlights both continuity and change in core features of the genre. Whereas Los Tigres del Norte demonstrate a greater degree of restraint, a change of perspective enables Ríos to enthusiastically celebrate the illicit lifestyle of the narco-trafficker. The lighthearted musical setting of “El Katch” emphasizes personal autonomy by degrading the sense of the power of death, but a preoccupation with mortality remains, following Ríos beyond the song’s boundaries into his off-stage reality.

description: Purpose – The purpose of this study is to provide a systematic literature review on taxonomy alignment methods in information science to explore the common research pipeline and characteristics.
description: Design/methodology/approach – The authors implement a five-step systematic literature review process relating to taxonomy alignment. They take on a knowledge organization system (KOS) perspective, and specifically examining the level of KOS on “taxonomies.”
description: Findings – They synthesize the matching dimensions of 28 taxonomy alignment studies in terms of the taxonomy input, approach and output. In the input dimension, they develop three characteristics: tree shapes, variable names and symmetry; for approach: methodology, unit of matching, comparison type and relation type; for output: the number of merged solutions and whether original taxonomies are preserved in the solutions.
description: Research limitations/implications – The main research implications of this study are threefold: (1) to enhance the understanding of the characteristics of a taxonomy alignment work; (2) to provide a novel categorization of taxonomy alignment approaches into natural language processing approach, logic-based approach and heuristic-based approach; (3) to provide a methodological guideline on the must-include characteristics for future taxonomy alignment research.
description: Originality/value – There is no existing comprehensive review on the alignment of “taxonomies”. Further, no other mapping survey research has discussed the comparison from a KOS perspective. Using a KOS lens is critical in understanding the broader picture of what other similar systems of organizations are, and enables us to define taxonomies more precisely.

description: Background There has recently been considerable interest in better understanding how blood pressure should be managed after an episode of hospitalized AKI, but there are scant data regarding the associations between blood pressure measured after AKI and subsequent adverse outcomes. We hypothesized that among AKI survivors, higher blood pressure measured three months after hospital discharge would be associated with worse outcomes. We also hypothesized these associations between blood pressure and outcomes would be similar among those who survived non-AKI hospitalizations. Methods We quantified how systolic blood pressure (SBP) observed three months after hospital discharge was associated with risks of subsequent hospitalized AKI, loss of kidney function, mortality, and heart failure events among 769 patients in the prospective ASSESS-AKI cohort study who had hospitalized AKI. We repeated this analysis among the 769 matched non-AKI ASSESS-AKI enrollees. We then formally tested for AKI interaction in the full cohort of 1538 patients to determine if these associations differed among those who did and did not experience AKI during the index hospitalization. Results Among 769 patients with AKI, 42 % had subsequent AKI, 13 % had loss of kidney function, 27 % died, and 18 % had heart failure events. SBP 3 months post-hospitalization did not have a stepwise association with the risk of subsequent AKI, loss of kidney function, mortality, or heart failure events. Among the 769 without AKI, there was also no stepwise association with these risks. In formal interaction testing using the full cohort of 1538 patients, hospitalized AKI did not modify the association between post-discharge SBP and subsequent risks of adverse clinical outcomes. Conclusions Contrary to our first hypothesis, we did not observe that higher stepwise blood pressure measured three months after hospital discharge with AKI was associated with worse outcomes. Our data were consistent with our second hypothesis that the association between blood pressure measured three months after hospital discharge and outcomes among AKI survivors is similar to that observed among those who survived non-AKI hospitalizations.
International Network established (Deliverable D1.3)

description: The EdiCitNet strategy on internationalisation strategy addresses the observed lack of mainstreaming knowledge on ECS technologies, experiences and provided ecosystem services. We aim to strengthen the co-creation and diffusion of expertise and knowledge on ECS, spread successful methodologies and replicable strategies. Innovative solutions and best practice related to ECS to drive socially inclusive urban regeneration processes worldwide based on mutual learning and thus benefits. EdiCitNet uses an integrated, cross-sectoral and multi-stakeholder approach to built up the Edible City Network.
 The international network will be established in an ongoing expanding manner and documented. The current establishment of the international network is documented by an online platform (CMT), that was going live already at the beginning of the project. Each of the EdiCitNet City Teams constitutes an active node in an international ‘Network of Networks’ and is therefore the smallest yet most important element of a truly sustainable Network actively working on a global Edible Cities Network.
 Nevertheless, the CMT provides a virtual space for knowledge exchange and participation. Accordingly, the measures foreseen in Deliverable 7.1 (Refinement of plan for Dissemination, Knowledge exchange and Education) and listed in the appendix focus on different types of networking measures to integrate international stakeholder of ECS.
