Main S&T results/foregrounds. WP1. Electrolyte-gated OFET The transducer principle includes replacing the insulator of the organic transistor by an aqueous electrolyte. In this configuration, the gate consists of a piece of metal immersed in the electrolyte that remains distant form both the organic semiconductor and the source and drain electrodes. The objectives of WP1 were to set up protocol for the fabrication of the electrolyte-gated organic field- effect transistor (EGOFET) that would afterwards constitute the transducer and amplifier of the sensor.

Main S&T results/foregrounds. The main scientific goal of the GreenEcoNet project was to explore, through the use of modern social media and internet technology, how well small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) could learn from each other’s experience with greening business operations and whether communities of practice which extend beyond the traditional reach of the businesses who participate in the community could be an effective instruments to support the transition to a green economy model. Many SME networks exist that operate ‘off-line’ in their regions of reference and such networking can be detailed and frequent. However, it was also acknowledged that connections between the several offline networks hardly exist, so that learning benefits remain within existing networks and are not easily spread across networks in other regions and countries. Obviously, it can be argued that SMEs’ operations are often strongly determined by their regional/sectoral contacts, but at the same time it was asked “why a hairdresser in Belgium could not learn from the experiences of a hairdresser in Greece.” The challenge of geographically extended networking therefore is to tap into existing offline networks and set up an international online networking platform for sharing learning experiences across offline networks. This is the challenge that the GreenEcoNet project has addressed. The first part of the project, roughly speaking, focussed on setting up the online platform and reaching out to a selection of existing offline networks (through workshops and inviting practitioners to the GreenEcoNet Pool of Experts). Once completed, the system was ready for being populated by concrete case studies of SMEs that had successfully made a transition towards a green operation of their business. The second part of the project focussed on learning lessons across case studies in order to draw common lessons and formulate policy recommendations based on existing good practice. Finally the last part of the project, which has recently started and goes beyond the end of the EC funding, focuses on the evolution of the platform towards a service based platform, where green SMEs can be matched to funding partners who could finance their green solution, and where they can market their green solutions, products and services and form partnerships with like-minded SMEs in order to participate in large procurement contracts. In the following sections we describe per WP and task what was the work conducted under each of th...

Main S&T results/foregrounds. ‌ The main result of VELaSSCo Project is the first functional prototype of the VELaSSCo Platform: a platform, based on big-data technologies, to post-process and visualize large distributed data sets coming from numerical simulations. To reach this goal, the consortium has relied on the following main pillars: • A User panel has been created in order to take into account the final user, not only in the design phase of the Platform (obtaining the main requirements for the Platform), but also to feed the iterative process of development with its feed-back (including evaluation methodologies in the intermediate stages of the implementation). It also has been crucial to consider the user panel for defining an exploitation strategy of the product as much close to the market as possible. (WP1) • A big data architecture with two options, one for Open-source and one for Closed-source implementation, have been designed considering the main user and technical requirements. This has been one of the key points of the project, as this architecture is the core of the platform, and is the milestone representing one of the main aspects of the project: the union between big data and numerical simulations worlds. The architecture of VELaSSCo Platform uses big data tools and paradigms, but adapted to the numerical simulations needs. (WP2) • An exhaustive implementation plan has been designed and followed by the consortium in order to develop and implement the set of functionality (VQueries) for the VELaSSCo Platform. It has to be highlighted that the development of the platform has been done completely collaboratively, integrating developments of every partner of the consortium. (WP3 and WP4). • An evaluation methodology for the platform has been designed based on the Goal- Question-Metrics (GQM) and SRVQual methodologies, considering the following main dimensions: architecture, algorithms, effectiveness and usability. It has been applied in two evaluation events (one for the first prototype and other for the final version of it), where members of the user panel has used the VELaSSCo Platform following some predefined use cases. The feedback from these evaluation events has been crucial in order to prioritize the implementation plan and include slight modifications in the big data architecture defined in the beginning stage of the project, always having in mind the end user vision. In the following subsections, each one of the mentioned pillars is detailed.

  • Expected Results VA’s agreement with DoD to provide educational assistance is a statutory requirement of Chapter 1606, Title 10, U.S.C., Chapter 1607, Title 10, U.S.C., Chapter 30, Title 38, U.S.C. and Chapter 33, Title 38, U.S.C (Post-9/11 GI Xxxx). These laws require VA to make payments to eligible veterans, service members, guard, reservist, and family members under the transfer of entitlement provisions. The responsibility of determining basic eligibility for Chapter 1606 is placed on the DoD. The responsibility of determining basic eligibility for Chapter 30 and Chapter 33 is placed on VA, while the responsibility of providing initial eligibility data for Chapter 30 and Chapter 33 is placed on DoD. Thus, the two agencies must exchange data to ensure that VA makes payments only to those who are eligible for a program. Without an exchange of enrollment and eligibility data, VA would not be able to establish or verify applicant and recipient eligibility for the programs. Subject to the due process requirements, set forth in Article VII.B.1., 38 U.S.C. §3684A, VA may suspend, terminate, or make a final denial of any financial assistance on the basis of data produced by a computer matching program with DoD. To minimize administrative costs of implementation of the law and to maximize the service to the veteran or service member, a system of data exchanges and subsequent computer matching programs was developed. The purposes of the computer matching programs are to minimize the costs of administering the Xxxxxxxxxx GI Xxxx — Active Duty, the Xxxxxxxxxx GI Xxxx — Selected Reserve, Reserve Educational Assistance Program, and the Post-9/11 GI Xxxx program; facilitate accurate payment to eligible veterans or service members training under the Chapter of the Xxxxxxxxxx GI Xxxx — Active Duty, the Xxxxxxxxxx GI Xxxx — Selected Reserve, Reserve Educational Assistance Program, and the Post-9/11 GI Xxxx program; and to avoid payment to those who lose eligibility. The current automated systems, both at VA and DoD, have been developed over the last twenty-two years. The systems were specifically designed to utilize computer matching in transferring enrollment and eligibility data to facilitate accurate payments and avoid incorrect payments. The source agency, DMDC, stores eligibility data on its computer based system of record. The cost of providing this data to VA electronically are minimal when compared to the cost DMDC would incur if the data were forwarded to VA in a hard-copy manner. By comparing records electronically, VA avoids the personnel costs of inputting data manually as well as the storage costs of the DMDC documents. This results in a VA estimated annual savings of $26,724,091 to VA in mailing and data entry costs. DoD reported an estimated annual savings of $12,350,000. A cost-benefit analysis is at Attachment 1. In the 32 years since the inception of the Chapter 30 program, the cost savings of using computer matching to administer the benefit payments for these educational assistance programs have remained significant. The implementation of Chapter 33 has impacted the Chapter 30 program over the past 8 years (fiscal year 2010 through fiscal year 2017). Statistics show a decrease of 23 percent in the number of persons who ultimately use Chapter 30 from fiscal year 2015 to 2016. The number of persons who use Chapter 33 has consistently been above 700,000 in the past four years. VA foresees continued cost savings due to the number of persons eligible for the education programs.‌
