The E3 project aims to design cognitive radio systems and gradually evolve wireless networks for increased efficiency. The project involves network operators, equipment manufacturers, regulators and academia. It focuses on using cognitive radio concepts like dynamic spectrum allocation and selection to flexibly use spectrum between operators. This allows systems like LTE-Advanced to potentially use opportunistic spectrum access. The project also examines reconfigurable base stations and terminals, cognition enablers like a cognitive pilot channel, and self-optimization of radio networks.
Galicia has a rich folklore centered around pilgrimages, featuring traditional dances like the Muiñeira and folk instruments like the bagpipe, tambourine, and drum. The bagpipe produces sound through reed pipes supplied by a mouth-inflated bag or bellows, while drums are membranes stretched over a hollow cylinder struck to create sound. Tambourines consist of a single drumhead with jingling metal discs.

The document discusses how EU Cohesion Policy supports innovation, particularly through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). It provides an overview of how over €86 billion was spent on research and innovation during 2007-2013 to build research capacity and infrastructure in all regions. For 2014-2020, there will be a thematic focus on research and innovation, ICT, and SME competitiveness to maximize impact. Regions will develop research and innovation strategies for smart specialisation to concentrate resources on competitive advantages. Synergies between Cohesion Policy and Horizon 2020 are aimed at supporting research and innovation from the idea stage to market.
The document discusses tensions between intellectual property rights (IPR) and standardization in open source and freely available software. It notes that while stable open standards regimes can address patent claims, not all "open" licenses and standards are fully interoperable. The document examines issues regarding non-assertion clauses, differing approaches in countries like China, the relationship between standards and innovation, and whether patent and copyright laws still make sense for information technologies. It concludes that policymakers must balance the rights of public access and technological competition.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
This document outlines a role-playing social experiment to be conducted by 17 research groups at IBBT. It describes 4 fictional characters that will be role played by the participants over 2 hours to enact one of three scenarios related to work at IBBT projects. The goals are to gain personal insights into workstyles, provide input for the Coconut project and MyBBT tool, and have the best team for each scenario awarded. Rules indicate that actions take TIME POINTS and have risks, with the team accumulating the most points winning.
Symptoms of a Billings and Payment ProblemRutger Gassner
This document discusses the symptoms that indicate a company may have problems with its billing and payment processes. It identifies four main symptoms: 1) average interchange fees of 2.5% or higher, 2) inability to identify or quantify best customers, 3) lack of central management of most important accounts, and 4) little control over customers' sales experiences. Implementing a strategic billing and payments solution can help address these problems by decreasing fees, standardizing processes, personalizing customer experiences, and driving new revenue.
Picture was made in my native city, Berdyansk, which is situated on the shore of the Azov Sea. The bullhead fish is truly a "symbol" of Berdyansk - there is always plenty of it, so everybody can be a fisher in our town. At the times of the World War II, when the people suffered from hunger and starvation, fishing became their salvation. That is why two memorials to bullhead fish still exist in Berdyansk. Now, when the worst times are in the past, fishing still remains the source of a profit, a wonderful trasition, which connects grown-ups and children, and a relaxing hobby.
My "heroes" are the family of fishers: an old man and his grandsons. He told me that they come to fish every day, so he can teach his boys how to fish. Alhough they didn't catch any fish that day, they still had a great time.

The document discusses the intersection of information and communication technologies (ICT) and creative industries in Europe. It notes that creative industries generate over €654 billion annually for Europe. It also describes the MFG Baden-Württemberg organization's efforts to foster innovation through cross-fertilization between ICT and creative industries at the European, national and regional levels. Their activities include research, workshops, virtual worlds and more to boost collaboration between the two fields.
The document discusses key cost drivers and financial challenges for trucking fleets, including average operating margins of 2-4%. A survey found that 66% of fleets said payments programs help lower costs, and 71% are more likely to buy from suppliers offering payments. The top decision factors for payments program participation are parts pricing and purchasing controls. Consolidated billing and appropriate credit allocations are also important. To maximize fleet participation and usage, payments programs must address fleet needs and provide clear value.
The document discusses the production of a contents page. It lists the steps needed to automatically generate a contents page including inserting headings, setting the heading styles, and generating the table of contents. The contents page will display the headings in the order and hierarchy used in the document with page numbers.
This document discusses the licensing experiences of the SUMO Toolbox. It begins by introducing the Surrogate Modeling Lab and the toolbox. It then discusses some of the challenges with the original licensing approach, which involved fees and an activation process. The document proposes moving to a dual license model, with an open source AGPL license for non-commercial use and a custom commercial license. This is hoped to increase users, contributions and feedback while being less restrictive than the original approach. Some caveats are noted around tracking contributions and compatibility with other codes.
This document discusses B cell immunodeficiencies, which are antibody deficiency disorders caused by impaired B lymphocyte development or failure of B cells to respond to T cell signals. It describes several specific types of B cell immunodeficiencies, including X-linked agammaglobulinemia, Hyper-IgM syndrome, IgA deficiency, and Common variable immunodeficiency. These deficiencies are characterized by reduced levels of certain antibodies and increased susceptibility to recurrent bacterial infections.
The document summarizes key details about the M-Days event in 2012, including forecasts of 50% visitor growth and 120 exhibitors. It outlines the speaker stages, exhibitor areas, and topics that will be covered like mobile working, apps, developer areas, and partnerships with Appfahren and GS1. Sponsorship and media opportunities are also mentioned to promote visibility for exhibitors among the B2B, developer, and consumer audiences.
- A survey of truck drivers found that steady work and a sense of job stability were the strongest factors in driver loyalty to fleets, with 100% of drivers agreeing on this. Clear communication from fleets was also very important.
- Driver appreciation programs that recognize safety and performance were highly valued by drivers and can significantly reduce costs for fleets by decreasing turnover. Recognition and incentives programs were important factors for two-thirds of drivers when deciding to stay with a company.
- Maintaining open communication through multiple channels since drivers lead mobile lifestyles was important for optimizing relationships between fleets and drivers. Personal contact, voicemails, online forums and meetings could all be part of an effective communication strategy.

This document discusses security and privacy concerns for electronic health information platforms (E-HIP). It analyzes threats at the business and technical levels, and proposes using centralized access control rules and decentralized identity providers to enforce security. For privacy, it suggests pseudonymizing identifiers when data is communicated across contexts, with some applications requiring reversible pseudonymization. The implementation involves users authenticating and an anonymizer permitting access according to security service rules.
The document discusses mechanisms for controlling access to internet content related to space, time, speed, quality, and access. It focuses on how the audiovisual industry uses geo-IP filtering, digital rights management (DRM), content delivery networks (CDNs), and peering agreements to segment markets and protect existing business models of content versioning and repurposing. Regulation and self-regulation both play a role in controlling the distribution of content, with tools like DRM and geo-blocking supported by formal copyright laws as well as industry practices. Overall, the document examines how the industry aims to maintain national and regional control over content access online.

1) Galicia is known for bagpipes and tambourines. Music accompanied agriculture and festivals.
2) Germany produced famous composers like Beethoven and Brahms. Traditional instruments include bagpipes and dances include polka and sword dances.
3) Sweden's instruments derive from Vikings like lur trumpets and bagpipes. Common dances are schottis and polka.
4) The Czech Republic produced composers like Dvořák and Mozart's Don Giovanni. It has a strong woodwind instrument tradition and genres like jazz, folk, and rock and roll.
El poema describe el número pi como un número infinito que nunca termina y continúa más allá de lo que la vista, el cálculo o la imaginación pueden comprender. A diferencia de otras cosas en el mundo que tienen un fin, como serpientes o cometas, el número pi seguirá extendiéndose para siempre a través del espacio sin llegar a su conclusión.
