The Dutch Round Tables for Smart Mobility are communities for industry, governments and knowledge institutes to develop and deploy smart mobility faster and on a bigger scale, in the Netherlands.
There are five Dutch Round Tables for Smart Mobility (themes): Architecture & Interoperability, Legal Aspects, Human Behaviour, Effects. The agenda is set per table with input by current issues in ongoing projects on one hand, but on the other hand also project transcending and international developments, that have influence as well.
Milton Keynes is one of the fastest growing cities in the UK and a great economic success story. However, the challenge of supporting sustainable growth without exceeding the capacity of the infrastructure, and whilst meeting key carbon reduction targets, is a major one.
MK:Smart is a large collaborative initiative, partly funded by HEFCE (the Higher Education Funding Council for England) and led by The Open University, which is developing innovative solutions to support economic growth in Milton Keynes.

FAIR Data: principles and practices
A growing worldwide movement for reproducible research encourages making data, along with the experimental details, available according to the FAIR principles of Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability (see http://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618). Several data management, sharing policies and plans have emerged and, in parallel, a growing number of community-based groups are developing hundreds of standards to harmonize the reporting of different experiments. Community mobilization is evident also by the number of efforts and alliances, but also data journals and data centres being launched.

Realize the Power of the Cloud in Health and Life Sciences Viable Synergy LLC
The cloud is gaining significant traction in the health and life sciences (HLS), and a “one-configuration” model isn’t the answer. HLS organizations need to create a roadmap to the cloud and explore hybrid- or multi-cloud solutions. Innovative organizations are developing cloud strategies that address key stakeholders’ needs and align with business objectives and budgets. Some go further by deriving the most value from their data, including leveraging advanced analytics (AI and ML) to increase business insights, enhance operational processes, and improve patient outcomes, and accelerate research discoveries. HLS industries are seeking ways to effectively adopt and use these technologies. Those successfully adopting cloud infrastructure and solutions effectively address what Southern calls the "Five Pillars of Successful Cloud Adoption".
Cloud Native, Cloud First and Hybrid: How Different Organizations are Approac...Amazon Web Services
The advent of highly scalable, easy-to-deploy technology is transforming both private and public entities – but it’s not a one-size-fits-all approach. Each organization has its own cloud journey to share. Some start with pilot projects, while others jump into mission-critical programs. Adopting the cloud doesn’t mean starting over – it’s about enhancing your existing infrastructure. In this session, learn firsthand from MTCnovo and United Kingdom Data Archive (UKDA) share on how they are using the cloud to build on their existing technologies and learning valuable lessons along the way.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
