Re-urbanization refers to the increasing number of people moving back into inner urban areas after living in suburbs or outside the urban area. Some key causes are population pressure in rural areas pushing people to cities for better living standards and jobs, as well as improved healthcare in urban centers. The port of Manchester declined in the late 19th century as industries moved closer to Liverpool for shipping access. To prevent further decline, the Manchester Ship Canal was constructed in 1894 to reconnect Manchester to the sea and establish it as Britain's third largest port. However, the port and Salford docks began declining in the 1960s-1970s due to larger ships' draft limitations and slower transport. This economic decline led to neglected infrastructure, job losses
The document discusses several important locations in Salford, Manchester. Media City UK is where many BBC shows are filmed and also provides work experience for students. The Bridgewater Canal was historically used to transport coal but now shows Salford's history. The Lowry theatre was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 2000 and is located at Salford Quays, which was formerly a dockyard but is now an urban regeneration project. The documentary will provide information about the history and importance of these locations while showing footage of each one.
Suburbanisation refers to the movement of people, services, and industries from the centers of inner urban areas to the edges of built-up areas. In the 1800-1900 period, industry could pay the most for city center sites, leading to unplanned housing around factories with few amenities. The middle class began moving to suburbs. Suburban areas continued rapidly expanding in the inter-war and post-war periods due to fewer regulations. Causes of suburbanization include decentralization of jobs to cheaper land prices on the outskirts, deindustrialization causing inner city job losses, attractions of suburban locations like space and amenities, and advances in transportation allowing longer commutes. Consequences can be economic, environmental, or social for both the
Counter-urbanisation has led to changes in rural settlements like St Ives. Young adults moved away for education and jobs while elderly residents declined, but St Ives saw in-migration of families and more affluent younger people. This increased housing prices and changed land use and development. St Ives has become more suburban as services grew and commuting increased, especially to London as travel times shortened. This has economically benefited some but increased inequality as housing is unaffordable for many lower-paid local jobs. Further development is ongoing but must be sensitive to the existing character of the area.
The UK is attractive to migrants internationally for several reasons: it has strong historical Commonwealth and empire links to countries like India and Pakistan; it shares a common language with other English-speaking countries; it is an education hub with top universities; London is a global city; and as a stable member of the EU and MEDC, it provides economic opportunities. However, migration also presents challenges as evident in the influx of Polish migrants - while there are economic benefits to the UK, problems can arise from intervening obstacles and potential "trickle back" returns of some migrants to their home countries.
This document discusses how migration is changing the face of the European Union. It outlines understanding key migrations into and within the EU at a global scale. It also evaluates the economic, social, political and environmental impacts of migration and the reactions they create. The document describes types of migrations and migration theory, including push factors, intervening obstacles, and pull factors. It asks the reader to produce a timeline showing key migration groups to the UK, their source countries and destinations, and reasons for migration.

Life expectancy varies significantly across different parts of the UK, ranging from 80.8 years in Kensington and East Dorest to 69.3 years in Glasgow City. Areas with the highest life expectancies tend to be affluent parts of southern England, while parts of Scotland and northern England have the lowest life expectancies. Factors like income levels, access to healthcare, and general health and lifestyle habits may help explain the differences in life expectancy shown across UK regions.
Population structure refers to how a population is grouped by age and sex. It is summarized using a population pyramid. To interpret a pyramid, you look at the base to see recent trends, the top to see life expectancy, and the middle to see if any age groups stand out. The dependency ratio is calculated by dividing the non-working population (ages 0-14 and 65+) by the working population (ages 15-64). This ratio is directly linked to a country's population structure.
The document discusses factors that contribute to the economic development of a location, including natural resources like oil, coastal access for trade, infrastructure, strategic geographic position, large workforce, skilled labor, and common languages. It also explains the multiplier effect where an initial investment stimulates further economic activity through business partnerships and increased spending and tax revenue. Cumulative causation is described as wealth concentrating in places over time due to globalization allowing access to global markets and skills.
This document is a map showing flight routes between destinations in the oneworld airline alliance. It displays routes connecting cities across Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, South America, and the Pacific region. Flight times are shown between destinations on the map with lines indicating scheduled routes and times.
This document discusses the history and development of global networks from ancient times to modern day. It outlines key milestones like the first sailing ships in 200AD, canals and stagecoaches in the 1500-1700s, the first steam ship crossing the Atlantic in 1819, the transatlantic telegraph cable in 1866, early radio and television experiments in the 1890s and 1920s, and the introduction of commercial air travel, cars, and mobile phones in the early-to-mid 20th century. These developments in transport, telecommunications, and technology have helped connect the world and build modern global networks.
To What Extent Are Population Policies Successfulljordan
To what extent are population policies successful? This document discusses population policies and their success in influencing birth rates. It outlines anti-natalist policies that aim to decrease birth rates through family planning, contraception, sex education, and abortion. Pro-natalist policies aim to increase birth rates using incentives like cash bonuses and tax breaks for larger families. The success of these policies depends on government commitment, public involvement, and whether they have achieved their goal of changing birth rates. Singapore is used as an example of a country that implemented policies and saw its birth rate decline, potentially endangering its future workforce and aging population.
Lesson 2 Theories For The Relationship Between Population And Resourcesljordan
There are differing theories on the relationship between population growth and resources. Thomas Malthus predicted a population catastrophe as population grows geometrically while food supply only increases arithmetically. Neo-Malthusians like the Club of Rome warned of limits to growth if trends continued unchanged. However, Ester Boserup argued that humans can innovate to increase food supply in response to population pressure through technologies like irrigation and better farming techniques.
Lesson 2 What Is Globalisation And How Is It Changing Peoples Livesljordan
Globalization is changing population dynamics around the world. It accelerates demographic transition as countries develop economically and socially. There are five stages of demographic transition: early on, birth and death rates are both high; eventually, death rates fall due to improved health conditions while birth rates remain high, causing population growth. Later, as countries develop further, birth rates also fall as women's roles change and family planning increases. Some countries now have low or even negative population growth as birth rates drop below death rates. Globalization also influences migration patterns, concentrating new industries in some areas and reducing jobs in others, pushing and pulling people between places. Factors like cost, policy, and information availability can intervene to obstruct migration.
Lesson 1 What Is Globalisation And How Is It Changing Peoples Livesljordan
Globalization is the increasing interconnectedness between places due to factors like improved transportation and communication technologies that have accelerated the movement of people, goods, capital, and ideas globally. This document discusses understanding the meaning and process of globalization, outlining factors driving it like postwar economic growth, and examining related global trends such as international migration patterns and their link to increasing interconnectedness worldwide.

There are differing theories on the relationship between population growth and resources. Thomas Malthus predicted a population catastrophe as population grows geometrically while food supply only increases arithmetically. Neo-Malthusians like the Club of Rome warned of limits to growth in the 1970s. However, Ester Boserup argued that population growth triggers innovation that allows food supply to increase through technologies like irrigation and better farming techniques.
The document discusses patterns in world population growth, comparing trends in more economically developed world (MEDW) and less economically developed world (LEDW) populations. MEDW populations are growing more slowly with fertility rates below replacement level, while LEDW continue to grow at 1.8% annually, though rates are declining as countries develop. The concepts of overpopulation, underpopulation, and optimum population are introduced based on relationships between population size, resources, technology, and living standards.
Suburbanisation is the movement of people from central urban areas to surrounding residential areas, enabled by improvements in transportation infrastructure. This has caused changes in land use patterns, with new housing developments, local shopping centers, schools, parks, and golf courses being built. A case study of St. Ives, Cambridgeshire shows how increased affordable housing and a growing retired population has led to rising home prices and more commuters traveling long distances by train into London daily.
The population has increased since the 1800s due to the birth rate exceeding the death rate. The birth rate rose as contraception became more available but is now falling as people prioritize careers over starting families. The death rate is very low because of advances in medicine, sanitation, and healthcare for the elderly. Economic, social, and political factors like the cost of living, people marrying later in life, and postwar baby booms have also impacted population changes. Migration within and to the UK affects the age distribution and concentration of populations in urban areas.
The document discusses the demographic transition model (DTM) and how it relates to population structures in less economically developed countries (LEDCs) and more economically developed countries (MEDCs). The DTM describes changes in birth and death rates over time and shows countries pass through 5 stages of population change. The DTM can be used to identify what stage a country is in based on its population pyramid. While most MEDCs have passed through all stages, taking around 200 years, many LEDCs are still in stages 2 or 3 of rapid population growth, moving through the stages more quickly due to policies and medical aid.
De-industrialization is the decline in importance of manufacturing industries and reduction in their percentage of the total workforce. Traditional heavy industries like shipbuilding, steel, and textiles in the UK have suffered, with shipbuilding declining in areas like South Wales and northeast England for many years. The closure of the steel industry in Consett, County Durham in 1980 due to economic reasons resulted in 4,000 job losses and 30% male unemployment. New manufacturing industries have developed in electronics and computing in the UK, attracted by a qualified labor force, university research, good communications, government incentives, and a pleasant work environment. Cambridge Science Park is the largest science park in the UK, home to over 700 hi-tech companies employing over 20
The document summarizes key topics related to settlements, population, and migration. It discusses factors that influence the location and size of settlements and how changes in settlements can affect quality of life. It also outlines factors that influence population distribution and growth rates. Additionally, it lists advantages and disadvantages of migration for both destination countries and countries of origin, such as impacts on labor markets, integration, money sent back to families, loss of skilled workers, and changes to demographic structures.
There is pressure to build new homes in England to accommodate population and household growth. Building on brownfield sites in cities has advantages like revitalizing decaying areas and reducing urban sprawl, but issues include potential land contamination cleanup costs and increased housing prices driving out local residents. Greenfield development has disadvantages such as high upfront infrastructure costs and environmental impacts from converting rural land, but can provide more lower density housing. Local governments must decide between brownfield and greenfield options while balancing various community and environmental factors.
Re-urbanisation is the movement of high-income groups back into central urban areas in more economically developed countries. In Manchester, areas like Salford Quays and Castlefields that were previously industrial sites have been redeveloped with new residential, commercial, and leisure spaces to attract residents and tourists back to the inner city, helped by improved public transportation like trams that reduce congestion.
The document discusses reurbanization, the process of redevelopment in existing cities and suburbs rather than on the outskirts. Higher income individuals are moving back into inner cities, driven by changes making urban areas more attractive like new buildings, crime reduction, and proximity to jobs. As an example, Bristol, UK redeveloped its former docklands after industries declined, addressing problems of dereliction and unemployment. Gentrification, where wealthier residents renovate and increase property values in low-cost neighborhoods, displacing prior residents, is connected to reurbanization as higher incomes move back into cities.
The document summarizes urbanization in less economically developed countries (LEDCs) and its consequences. It describes that over 1 billion people live in urban slums, with the highest concentration in Asia where 60% of the world's slums are located. In the slums of Manila, Philippines, over 40% of the urban population live in dense, unsanitary conditions. The document profiles three families living in difficult circumstances in Tondo, one of the poorest and most overcrowded slum areas of Manila, and discusses the problems faced by slum communities including inadequate and unsafe housing, lack of basic services, and insecure land tenure.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
