Socially transformative transnational feminism : Filipino women activists at home and abroad
Creators: name: Carrillo, Maria Lourdes
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Twelve Filipino women activists who shared the same ideology were interviewed in three locations: the Philippines, the Netherlands, and Vancouver, BC. The study considers how massive migration and displacement of Filipino women have produced transnational communities of struggle that are a source of political consciousness and positive social change. The research compares personal and social changes among those immersed in daily struggle under different circumstances. It looks at how and why women and communities are transformed in the very process of struggle -- women becoming more socially empowered and communities learning to be more assertive, democratic, and politically engaged. In the stories they tell, the women historicize, contextualize, and politicize actions for structural change. While transnational feminism appears to parallel global strategies of transnational entities and nation-states, feminist movements struggle to be relevant. Mohanty (2003) sees antiglobalization activism as imperative for feminist solidarity, yet feminist projects continue to seek focused, collective efforts against neo-Iiberalism. This group’s activism enhances our understanding of feminist praxis. They jointly address neo-colonial domination (capitalist globalization) and systemic race-class-gender oppression. Economic experiences of those from a poor Majority World nation and actions from socially and politically conscious activists are integrated into community-based and academic feminist theorizing. Their analyses of global trade/labour trafficking contribute to learning about responsible communities and hope for transnational solidarity. This project proposes a socially transformative feminism that does not merely recognize antiglobalization efforts, but analyzes progressive feminist praxis that points to women’s liberation as directly linked to positive structural change locally, nationally, and transnationally, while already demonstrating its possibility. Citing the work of Mohanty (2003), Tuhiwai-Smith (2002), Sandoval (2000), and community-based research by the Philippine Women Centre of BC (1996-2006), it builds on feminist research and social change movements. It focuses on marginalized women’s/communities’ capacity to show creative assertion and political participation, and examines criteria for what is socially transformative. The study concludes by reassessing the relationship of feminism and transnationalism in the context of these women’s lives and work—the realities of migration, the dialectics of women’s marginalization and empowerment, and the perpetual, constantly changing nature of social transformation.

description: In this paper we review recent progress in our understanding of the chemical evolution of protoplanetary disks. Current observational constraints and theoretical modeling on the chemical composition of gas and dust in these systems are presented. Strong variations of temperature, density, high-energy radiation intensities in these disks, both radially and vertically, result in a peculiar disk chemical structure, where a variety of processes are active. In hot, dilute and heavily irradiated atmosphere only the most photostable simple radicals and atoms and atomic ions exist, formed by gas-phase processes. Beneath the atmosphere a partly UV-shielded, warm molecular layer is located, where high-energy radiation drives rich ion-molecule and radical-radical chemistry, both in the gas phase and on dust surfaces. In a cold, dense, dark disk midplane many molecules are frozen out, forming thick icy mantles where surface chemistry is active and where complex polyatomic (organic) species are synthesized. Dynamical processes affect disk chemical composition by enriching it in abundances of complex species produced via slow surface processes, which will become detectable with ALMA.

Comparing and improving two column and three column methanol distillation schemes
Creators: name: Douglas, Anthony P
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2018
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: A thesis is presented for the thermal and economic comparison of two column and three column methanol distillation schemes for the purification of crude methanol. The methanol distillation schemes considered are designed to produce methanol to US federal specification O-M-232K (14.10.1998) Grade AA from crude methanol synthesized in a low pressure, natural gas to methanol process. The schemes include the conventional two column scheme comprising a topping column and a refining column, two different enrichment cascade three column schemes and a double effect three column scheme. First and second law thermodynamic analyses were applied to the distillation schemes to identify and assess practical improvements. The improvements, which include feed conditioning and intermediate reboiling, can enhance heat integration with the background process and realise reductions in both capital and operating cost, and footprint. For the three column schemes, these improvements coupled with the manipulation of the column pressures can further enhance heat integration with the background process. Footprint reduction, which is of significance to an offshore synthesis facility, is an additional benefit of tighter process integration. Conclusions are presented with respect to the application of the schemes to three competing low pressure natural gas to methanol process technologies.

description: The RockStartIT initiative was explicitly designed to increase the representation of girls in STEM-related subjects, particularly the field of computer science (CS), by providing interdisciplinary courses that connect the subject matter to their interests and passions. The program has been successful in engaging a diverse group of high school students, encouraging them to explore CS through problem-solving skills in the areas of their choice. The program's structure and approach have been instrumental in promoting interest in CS and increasing the understanding of the importance of using CS to solve real-world, interdisciplinary problems. The IDEA (Interdisciplinary, Diverse, Exploratory, and Active) approach of RockStartIT provides alternative pathways into the field of CS by building on the individual interests of diverse students, which would not have been possible without the interdisciplinary approach.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit dem Einsatz von Methoden des maschinellen Lernens zur zuverlässigen Nachrichtenübertragung trotz grob quantisierter Information am Empfänger. Es wird unter anderem der Entwurf von leistungsfähigen Fehlerkorrekturalgorithmen unter grober Quantisierung vorgestellt. Dies erfordert einen interdisziplinären Ansatz, der auf dem Zusammenspiel von Informationstheorie und maschinellem Lernen basiert. Ein besonderer Fokus liegt dabei auf der Information Bottleneck Methode. Trotz der groben Quantisierung erreicht der präsentierte Ansatz nahezu die Performanz konventioneller Fließkomma-Algorithmen.
description: This thesis addresses the use of machine learning methods for reliable transmission despite coarsely quantized soft information at the receiver. In particular, the design of powerful error correction algorithms under coarse quantization is presented. This requires an interdisciplinary approach based on the interplay of information theory, machine learning, and communications engineering. A particular focus is put on the information bottleneck method. Interestingly, the designed coarsely quantized signal processing units achieve almost the same performance in terms of reliability as conventional non-quantized methods.

description: A novel nanomaterial which consists of graphene sheets decorated with silsesquioxane molecoles has been developed. Indeed, aminopropyl-silsesquioxane (POSS-NH2) has been employed to functionalize graphene oxide sheets (GOs). The surface grafting of GOs with POSS-NH2 has been established by infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, while the morphology has been investigated by field emission electron microscopy as well as by atomic force microscopy. The combination of the amino functionalized POSS molecules with GO sheets produces a hybrid silicon/graphite-based nanomaterial, named GRAPOSS, for which the electrical conductivity of reduced GO was restored, thus allowing promising exploitations in several fields such as polymer nanocomposites.

description: In recent years, insect meal has attracted increasing interest as an innovative protein source to replace fish meal in feed formulation due to its valuable nutritional profile. This research aimed to compare the effects of different dietary inclusion levels (5, 10, and 15%) of Hermetia illucens (HI) larvae meal on Sparus aurata (initial weight: 98.6±0.6 g) sensorial, technological, and nutritional fillets quality. Fish were fed experimental diets over 113 days. Results showed that the inclusion of defatted HI larvae meal did not induce off-flavours in gilthead sea bream fillets. No significant differences were found in appearance, mouthfeels, and texture, while a difference emerged in the trait ‘cooked chicken breast’ for odour and flavour characteristics. Moreover, fillets’ quality traits and proximate composition analyses performed did not show significant differences between the treatments. The fillets' fatty acid content showed that higher inclusion of HI meal leads to higher saturated fatty acids content, while no significant difference in polyunsaturated fatty acids was observed among treatments. Results have a positive implication as dietary HI did not negatively affect the fatty acids composition or quality of sea bream fillets.

description: We present an experiment where the quantum coherence in the edge states of the integer quantum Hall regime is tuned with a decoupling gate. The coherence length is determined by measuring the visibility of quantum interferences in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer as a function of temperature, in the quantum Hall regime at filling factor two. The temperature dependence of the coherence length can be varied by a factor of two. The strengthening of the phase coherence at finite temperature is shown to arise from a reduction of the coupling between co-propagating edge states. This opens the way for a strong improvement of the phase coherence of Quantum Hall systems. The decoupling gate also allows us to investigate how inter-edge state coupling influence the quantum interferences' dependence on the injection bias. We find that the finite bias visibility can be decomposed into two contributions: a Gaussian envelop which is surprisingly insensitive to the coupling, and a beating component which, on the contrary, is strongly affected by the coupling.

description: Molekulardynamische Simulationen von Kompressionsprüfungen an virtuellen nanoporösen Goldproben, die durch Nachahmung spinodaler Entmischung durch Monte-Carlo-Simulationen erstellt wurden, zeigen ein ungewöhnlich nachgiebiges und weiches Verhalten. Dieses Materialverhalten, welches in guter Übereinstimmung mit experimentellen Daten an millimetergroßem, entlegiertem nanoporösem Gold ist, verändert sich drastisch, wenn die Netzwerkkonnektivität verändert wird. Topologische Unordnung verursacht durch Verschiebung der Netzwerkknoten nimmt ebenfalls Einfluss auf das effektive Materialverhalten. Dennoch müssen, zusätzlich zu den oben erwähnten topologischen Beschreibungen und des Feststoffanteils, Prozesse auf atomistischer Ebene wie Versetzungsaktivität und Oberflächeneffekte in Betracht gezogen werden, um das beobachtete Materialverhalten erklären zu können.
description: Molecular dynamics simulations of compression tests on virtual nanoporous gold samples created by mimicking spinodal decomposition via Monte Carlo simulations reveal an anomalously compliant and weak behavior. This behavior, while in good agreement with experimental data of millimeter-sized dealloyed nanoporous gold, changes drastically once the network connectivity is varied. Topological disorder due to nodal shift also impacts the effective behavior of the material. Yet, on top of the above-mentioned topological descriptors or the solid fraction, atomistic processes, such as dislocation activity and surface effects, must be taken into account in order to explain the observed behavior of the material.

description: In this paper we investigate the effect of superposition of states on local conversion of pure bipartite states under deterministic LOCC. We are able to form a bridge between comparable and incomparable classes of states through the linear superposition of states. For example, if we consider two pairs of incomparable states, then their superposition may result into a comparable pair of states. We investigate many such cases and provide some of the results in tabular form. We also investigate the entanglement behavior of such classes of states, specifically their monotone nature. Finally we provide some bounds of different measures of entanglement based on the idea of comparability and incomparability under deterministic LOCC.

description: Wet combustion has been recognized as a potential tertiary recovery process. Very little data are available on laboratory and field tests of its application to high - gravity crude oil. This study presents results of one dry and four wet combustion tests in water - flooded sand packs with high-gravity crude oil. Crushed native core samples were used for the tests and pre-burn fluid saturations established by flooding. X-ray diffraction analysis techniques were used to determine changes in mineral compositions. These changes were used to correct product gas analyses and all calculations using product gas compositons for carbon dioxide produced from decarbonation reactions. The effect of injected water air ratio on injected air-produced oil ratio, oil recovery efficiency and combustion front velocity are presented.
Profiling developmental speech sound disorders: differences, deficits and outcomes

Publisher: name: University of Limerick

Subjects: subject: Health sciences
subject: FOS: Health sciences

description: There is evidence that many pre-schoolers with speech sound disorders (SSD) will resolve their SSD without therapy. The identification of children who are likely to resolve without help would avoid resources being expended on children who do not need therapy. Conversely, identification of sub-groups with specific underlying deficits that lead to persisting SSD would allow intervention to target the source of the difficulty. Research questions: Are profiles of SSD associated with other cognitive difficulties? Do sub-types of children classified by symptomatology remain stable? Which children’s SSD do not resolve? Eighty-five children referred to local SLT services with suspected SSD were assessed on a battery of tests for speech, language and other cognitive abilities. Seventy-five children were reassessed two years later to establish changes in diagnostic profile and outcomes. At time 1 exploratory factor analysis identified clearly defined factors (of which one was speech accuracy), suggesting speech accuracy in pre-schoolers is largely independent of language, motor or cognitive-linguistic abilities. Sub-groups of children with SSD defined by symptomatology or proposed aetiology were not differentiated by profiles of underlying deficits. Symptomatology changed as children aged, suggesting a continuum of delay mediated by age and severity rather than qualitatively different disorders. Longitudinal follow up showed that 79% of children normalised their speech after 2 years, with or without therapy. Logistic regression indicated that the most clinically useful predictor of recovery was the child’s score on a test of Non-Word Discrimination. Lateralised fricatives did not resolve. Clinical implications are discussed.

description: The prime purpose of this work was to provide thermal cracking reaction models which can be incorporated into numerical simulators of thermal recovery processes for the Athabasca Oil Sands. Athabasca bitumen, free of water and minerals, was thermally cracked at constant temperatures in a closed system under an inert atmosphere. The products of cracking were separated into six pseudo components: coke, asphaltenes, heavy oils, middle oils, light oils and gases. Experimental runs were made over the temperature range from 303°c to 452°c. Three series of runs were made at 360°c, 397°C and 422°C in which the reactions were terminated at various degrees of cracking. For these runs, reaction time versus product concentration curves were obtained for the above six pseudo components. Several pseudo reaction mechanisms are proposed to simulate the experimental results. The reaction rate constants were represented by an Arrehnius type expression, the activation energies and corresponding frequency factors were determined for each reaction mechanisms proposed.

description: We address the problem of classifying discrete differential-geometric Poisson brackets (dDGPBs) of any fixed order on target space of dimension 1. It is proved that these Poisson brackets (PBs) are in one-to-one correspondence with the intersection points of certain projective hypersurfaces. In addition, they can be reduced to cubic PB of standard Volterra lattice by discrete Miura-type transformations. Finally, improving a consolidation lattice procedure, we obtain new families of non-degenerate, vector-valued and first order dDGPBs, which can be considered in the framework of admissible Lie-Poisson group theory.

A clash of visions : the ethnic question in lower Canada, 1848-1850
Creators: name: Dzanic, Dzavid
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Although much historiographical attention has been paid to the way in which Lower-Canadian political groups responded to the Union, Responsible Government, the April 1849 burning of the Parliament in Montreal, and the annexation movement, the key principle underlying the political discourses of les Rouges, the conservative English Canadians, and the ministerial press in the late 1840s remains somewhat elusive. Much of the existing scholarship, moreover, is divided along linguistic and regional lines, which often produces interpretations that do not take into account the wider political discussion between French and English Canadians. By analysing the debates between L ‘Avenir, the Montreal Gazette, La Minerve, and The Pilot, and considering the manner in which those newspapers used the 1848 European Revolutions to add strength to their visions of Lower Canada’s future, this thesis argues that interethnic harmony and disharmony represented the ultimate stakes for all Lower-Canadian political groups between 1848 and 1850. Les Rouges (L ‘Avenir) and the conservative English Canadians (the Montreal Gazette) believed that French and English Canadians could not live together in harmony, and, as a result, they demanded reforms that would strengthen the political role of the ethnic group to which they respectively belonged. In contrast, the ministerial press (La Minerve and The Pilot) believed in the possibility of interethnic harmony and wanted to preserve Responsible Government, which, in their opinion, had the potential to prevent future interethnic conflicts.

description: With 16-month Kepler data, 14 long-period (40 d - 265 d) eclipsing binaries on highly eccentric orbits (minimum e between 0.5 and 0.85) are recognized from their closely separated primary and secondary eclipses (Δt_I,II = 3 d - 10 d). These systems confirm the existence of a previously hinted binary population situated near a constant angular momentum track at P(1-e^2)^(3/2) ~ 15 d, close to the tidal circularization period P_circ. They may be presently migrating due to tidal dissipation and form a steady-state stream (~1% of stars) feeding the close-binary population (few percent of stars). If so, future Kepler data releases will reveal a growing number (dozens) of systems at longer periods, following dN/dlgP \propto P^(1/3) with increasing eccentricities reaching e -> 0.98 for P -> 1000d. Radial-velocity follow up of long-period eclipsing binaries with no secondary eclipses could offer a significantly larger sample. Orders of magnitude more (hundreds) may reveal their presence from periodic "eccentricity pulses", such as tidal ellipsoidal variations, near pericenter passages. Several new few-day-long eccentricity-pulse candidates with long period (P = 25 d - 80 d) are reported.

description: Z CMa is a complex binary system, composed of a Herbig Be and an FU Ori star. The Herbig star is surrounded by a dust cocoon of variable geometry, and the whole system is surrounded by an infalling envelope. Previous spectropolarimetric observations have reported a preferred orientation of the polarization angle, perpendicular to the direction of a large, parsec-sized jet associated with the Herbig star. The variability in the amount of polarized light has been associated to changes in the geometry of the dust cocoon that surrounds the Herbig star. We aim to constrain the properties of Z CMa by means of imaging polarimetry at optical wavelengths. Using ExPo, a dual-beam imaging polarimeter which operates at optical wavelengths, we have obtained imaging (linear) polarimetric data of Z CMa. Our observations were secured during the return to quiescence after the 2008 outburst. We detect three polarized features over Z CMa. Two of these features are related to the two jets reported in this system: the large jet associated to the Herbig star, and the micro-jet associated to the FU Ori star. Our results suggest that the micro-jet extends to a distance ten times larger than reported in previous studies. The third feature suggests the presence of a hole in the dust cocoon that surrounds the Herbig star of this system. According to our simulations, this hole can produce a pencil beam of light that we see scattered off the low-density envelope surrounding the system.

description: The NO cycle takes place in the deepest layer of a H-burning core or shell, when the temperature exceeds T {\simeq} 30 {\cdot} 106 K. The O depletion observed in some globular cluster giant stars, always associated with a Na enhancement, may be due to either a deep mixing during the RGB (red giant branch) phase of the star or to the pollution of the primordial gas by an early population of massive AGB (asymptotic giant branch) stars, whose chemical composition was modified by the hot bottom burning. In both cases, the NO cycle is responsible for the O depletion. The activation of this cycle depends on the rate of the 15N(p,γ)16O reaction. A precise evaluation of this reaction rate at temperatures as low as experienced in H-burning zones in stellar interiors is mandatory to understand the observed O abundances. We present a new measurement of the 15N(p,γ)16O reaction performed at LUNA covering for the first time the center of mass energy range 70-370 keV, which corresponds to stellar temperatures between 65 {\cdot} 106 K and 780 {\cdot}106 K. This range includes the 15N(p,γ)16O Gamow-peak energy of explosive H-burning taking place in the external layer of a nova and the one of the hot bottom burning (HBB) nucleosynthesis occurring in massive AGB stars. With the present data, we are also able to confirm the result of the previous R-matrix extrapolation. In particular, in the temperature range of astrophysical interest, the new rate is about a factor of 2 smaller than reported in the widely adopted compilation of reaction rates (NACRE or CF88) and the uncertainty is now reduced down to the 10% level.

description: The vaporization of Swan Hill Crude Oil in the displac ement process by enriched gas was investigated. This study mainly investigated the compositional effect and the displacement pressure effect on the interphase mass transfer when gas was introduced to mix with the crude oil at reservoir conditions. The study indicates that vaporization of c+ 5 material is directly proportional to the richness of the injected gas. Using ah enriched gas(SO mole% of c; ), the condensing drive vaporized about 40-50% of the c+ 5 from the crude oil after 2.5 pore volumes had been injected. The vaporization of the c+ 5 will decrease as the methane component increases in concentration in the injected gas. When the methane composition is increased to 95 mole%, the vaporization will amount to approximately 10% at an injected pore volumes of 2 . 5. Al so, this study indicates that displacement pressure has a dominating effect on the degree of vaporization. When the operating pressure is increased from 2,500 psia to 3000 psia ,the vaporization of the c+ 5 is increased from 32% to about 50% when an intermediate rich gas (37.32 mole per cent c+ 2 ) is used. In this study, composition of the twd phases at equilibrium were predicted, by a minimum free energy concept in conjuction with the modified Redlich-Kwong equation of state for the gas phase and the dilated Van Laar model for the liquid phase in the calculation of phase fugai cities as proposed by Prausnitz et al(l968) ~ The binary interaction constants or parameters for the heavy ends were calculated and adjusted based on the available compositional analysis of the equilibrium mixture of Swan Hill crude oil and injected gas at various gas oil mixing ratio. The predicted composition for the vapor and liquid in the equilibrium show an absolute deviation of less than 10% for the system mixture of Swan Hill crude oil and enriched gas at 2,500 psi and 225°F. In order to simulate the steady state displacement process, a multicell separation model was used. This model incorporates the constraint of constant volume for each cell and the option of fluid transport according to the phase mobility. Recovery calculated based on this simplified model shows a good agreement with avail able experimental data in the case of condensing gas drive. For condensing gas drive, two important factors are learned to be important: vaporization and condensation. Vaporization takes place for the heavy ends and condensation for the other components. Combination of these two mechanisms accounts for the high recovery in the order of 90 to 110% as experienced in the linear sand pack displacement test, where the methane composition used in the injected gas stream varies from 45 to 55 mole percent.

description: We have conducted an HI 21 cm emission-line survey of six loose groups of galaxies chosen to be analogs to the Local Group. The survey was conducted using the Parkes Multibeam instrument and the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) over a ~1 Mpc^2 area and covering the full depth of each group, with a M(HI) sensitivity of ~7x10^5 M(sun). Our survey detected 110 sources, 61 of which are associated with the six groups. All of these sources were confirmed with ATCA observations or were previously cataloged by HIPASS. The sources all have optical counterparts and properties consistent with dwarf irregular or late-type spiral galaxies. We present here the HI properties of the groups and their galaxies. We derive an HI mass function for the groups that is consistent with being flatter than the equivalent field HIMF. We also derive a circular velocity distribution function, tracing the luminous dark matter halos in the groups, that is consistent with those of the Local Group and HIPASS galaxies, both of which are shallower than that of clusters or predictions from CDM models of galaxy formation.

Inhibition of YB-1 alone or in combination with TMZ may improve GBM treatment
Creators: name: Gao, Yuanyuan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Glioblastoma is a rare, but devastating brain tumor. Recent studies showed that GBM is correlated with Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) overexpression both in pediatric and adult patients. YB-1 is a member of the cold shock domain protein superfamily. It performs a wide variety of cellular functions, including regulation of cell growth, apoptosis, transcription, translation and drug resistance. Our goal was to determine the potential therapeutic value of targeting YB-1 in GBM. We carried out both transient and stable YB-1 knock-down, using siRNA and shRNA in GBM cell lines. The loss of YB-1 inhibited the cologenicity of SF188 in soft agar, and suppressed cell invasiveness in matrigel invasion assay. Furthermore, YB-1 stable knock-down delayed the onset of tumor formation in mice and suppressed tumor growth by 30%. Beyond its role in tumor growth and invasion, YB-1 is also strongly linked to drug resistance. We therefore addressed whether it plays roles in taxol (TXL) and temozolomide (TMZ) sensitivity. TXL is a commonly used anti-tumor drug and TMZ is the leading compound in GBM treatment. We evaluated YB-1 stable knock-down GBM cells sensitivity to these drugs both in monolayer and soft agar. Interestingly, we see a significant increase of apoptosis induced by TXL and TMZ in YB-1 silenced cells. Also, an enhanced suppression of cologenicity by TXL in soft agar was examined in YB-1 silenced cells. These results suggest that YB-1 modulates cell invasive ability, cologenicity, tumorgenicity in vivo and response to chemotherapy. With improved understanding of YB-1 roles in GBM, novel therapeutic approaches developed to target it are expected to provide a promising therapeutic benefit in treatment of GBM.

description: In the Solar system the planets' compositions vary with orbital distance, with rocky planets in close orbits and lower-density gas giants in wider orbits. The detection of close-in giant planets around other stars was the first clue that this pattern is not universal, and that planets' orbits can change substantially after their formation. Here we report another violation of the orbit-composition pattern: two planets orbiting the same star with orbital distances differing by only 10%, and densities differing by a factor of 8. One planet is likely a rocky `super-Earth', whereas the other is more akin to Neptune. These planets are thirty times more closely spaced--and have a larger density contrast--than any adjacent pair of planets in the Solar system.

D7.3 Information Sharing Policies In Disaster Situations - Version 1
Creators: name: Clifford, Damian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2015
Subjects: Information sharing, disaster management, critical infrastructure protection, security

description: Information sharing in disaster situations is potentially crucial for relief and the prevention of further damage. ECOSSIAN aims to develop prevention and detection tools that facilitate preventive functions like threat monitoring, early indicator and real threat detection, alerting, support of threat mitigation and disaster management in a privacy compliant manner. In order to adequately comprehend the legal implications of sharing information regarding the ECOSSIAN solution one must have a detailed understanding of information sharing in the broader context of disaster management. The purpose of this deliverable is to provide an outline of the requirements and policies associated with information sharing in disaster situations in the context of ECOSSIAN.

Chapter 2 will first examine the current disaster management framework in the context of critical infrastructures (‘Disaster management’).

Chapter 3 will focus on the legal framework for information sharing (‘Legal framework for information sharing’).

Chapter 4 will assess the barriers to information sharing (Legal barriers to information sharing). The analysis provided in Chapters 2, 3 and 4 will then be applied in Chapter 5 to the context of ECOSSIAN (‘Impact on ECOSSIAN).

Chapter 6 will provide guidance on the implementation of the identified requirements and finally Chapter 7 will conclude the analysis.

D7.2 Legal Requirements
Creators: name: Clifford, Damian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2015
Subjects: Privacy, Data Protection, Critical Infrastructure Protection, Security

description: This deliverable focuses on legal requirements related to the treatment and sharing of data. It builds upon the work completed in D7.1 ‘Analysis of the applicable legal framework’ and provides a detailed assessment of the applicable legal requirements to the ECOSSIAN project. It also highlights guidelines for the application of a privacy compliant solution and lists these and the requirements in table form.

Chapter 2 outlines the general data protection requirements derived from the research reported in D7.1 ‘Analysis of the applicable legal framework’, outlines the application of the principle of privacy by design, examines the relevant security and critical infrastructure protection requirements and indicates the potential impact of national law. The derived general legal requirements are then presented in a table.

Chapter 3 focuses on the impact of these requirements on ECOSSIAN.

Chapter 4 lists the resulting applicable guidelines for the implementation of the legal requirements.

In essence the deliverable provides insights in the form of general requirements and guidelines for the implementation of the privacy by design principle in the context of threat detection and analysis and information sharing.

Reference should be made to the specific tables provided in the deliverable. These should form the basis for the implementation of a privacy compliant ECOSSIAN solution but will also be further built upon in D7.3 ‘Information sharing policies in disaster situations - Version 1’.
