The document discusses how a design scheme should be specific to its site while also creating a distinctive character. It notes that a scheme should preserve and enhance the local context based on evidence from planning documents and site analyses. Creating distinctive spaces, architecture, landscaping and community aspects can help a scheme feel unique, though it is difficult to ascertain this at the pre-planning stage based on design details alone.

Field sketches and how to draw them
This document outlines how to create a field sketch to record observations from the field. It explains that a field sketch is used to summarize key geographical features, record measurements, and aid later analysis. The document provides instructions for making a field sketch, including choosing a view, drawing a frame to divide the page, adding the skyline and foreground, drawing the main features while leaving out details, and labeling the sketch. A checklist is also included to ensure the sketch contains the necessary elements.

This document discusses the importance of cities adapting to changing needs and cultures. It emphasizes that city planning and design should bring people together from different backgrounds for a variety of purposes, while also supporting local businesses and limiting car dependence. True community is built by understanding diverse perspectives and finding shared goals. Innovation comes from learning from many sources.

The document discusses several planning issues for a development in Henley. It notes that a protected brickworks site is nearby and development should not impact drainage or access. Vegetation borders the site and replanting is part of landscaping. Highways may need extending to allow future connections and adoptable standards, with traffic calming due to straight roads. Additional planning applications for funding or land use changes may also be required.

The document discusses improving public spaces by understanding how people use and value them. It suggests that temporary projects can test new concepts before being made permanent. Successful public spaces consider universal human behaviors and needs, while involving both the public and private sectors as well as communities. Improving the economy and people's well-being requires incremental "stepping stones" where everyone contributes to building on existing strengths.

The document discusses several of David Barrie's projects that aimed to cultivate local communities and economies by enabling people to express themselves and innovate locally. It argues that places can become extraordinary not just through new architecture and art, but also by allowing people opportunities to pursue who they want to be and support local economic growth. Communities should define their own models rather than letting competitors define them.

Main news related to the CCS TSI 2023 (2023/1695)
An English 🇬🇧 translation of a presentation to the speech I gave about the main changes brought by CCS TSI 2023 at the biggest Czech conference on Communications and signalling systems on Railways, which was held in Clarion Hotel Olomouc from 7th to 9th November 2023 (konferenceszt.cz). Attended by around 500 participants and 200 on-line followers.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up Slides
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
