It outlines the neighbourhood planning process and how design review could be incorporated earlier, at the plan preparation stage, to bring communities, planners and developers together to understand and potentially accept development. Doing so could speed up development and save costs compared to later appeals processes. The document concludes that using the new system to consider design early in neighbourhood plans could engage communities and add value.
The document provides recommendations to improve placemaking in the City of Charles Sturt. It recommends developing guiding principles and a definition of placemaking to ensure a coordinated approach. It also recommends empowering both staff and community members to participate in placemaking by raising awareness of how their current roles contribute to placemaking and by supporting community ideas. Specific placemaking ideas mentioned include hosting food truck events, providing free public WiFi, implementing recommendations from an existing placemaking framework, and marketing the newly renovated Woodville Town Hall venue.
The New (old) Planning for the Big Societyfutureoflondon
This document discusses several proposed policies in the Localism Bill related to community empowerment, including the Community Right to Buy public and private assets, the Neighbourhood Right to Plan, and the Right to Build housing. It outlines key questions around designating assets and areas, criteria for plans, oversight processes, funding support, and engaging local partners. It also presents examples of community land trusts and housing cooperatives in the UK and argues that these "self-organising" models could play a larger role in housing provision and placemaking if given greater access to land and support.
This document discusses community engagement in the current climate. It provides examples of different approaches to community engagement from local authorities in England and Scotland. It compares resident-led and council-led partnerships, examining their advantages and disadvantages. It also discusses the roles of councillors in developing new relationships with communities and engaging communities through social media.
Partnership working session - DFG Champions SheffieldFoundations HIA
This document discusses challenges and opportunities for collaboration between county and district councils in England on Disabled Facilities Grants (DFG) funding allocation. It notes debate over whether funding should be automatically given to districts or considered more strategically by counties. The document advocates for joint planning and shared approaches between the two council types to better serve communities and achieve objectives of the Better Care Fund, through mechanisms like jointly developed DFG plans and working groups. Examples of successful collaboration in various local areas are provided.
The document discusses how government policies in the UK are shifting funding and decision making away from national programs towards greater local control, flexibility, and innovation. Key points include less rigid spending programs and targets imposed from above, and more emphasis on local tax freedoms, social enterprise, market incentives, and competitive funding. New models and sources of funding are emerging, such as tax increment financing, community infrastructure levies, and a growing places fund, that aim to better leverage development and unlock growth. Engaging communities will also be important to take advantage of the opportunities in the new policy environment.
The document discusses the Community Right to Build, which allows certain community organizations to undertake small housing and commercial developments without going through the normal planning application process. It works best when communities think strategically about their needs, work together, and have a clear understanding of the benefits. For example, in Ferring, the Community Right to Build was used as part of a Neighborhood Plan to relocate an allotment site and village hall in order to build 50 homes to address housing needs, using the funds to build new community facilities. Support is available for communities pursuing Community Right to Build projects through funding, advice on technical and housing matters, and peer connections.
Living Villages 1 - Localism and the Big SocietyJesse Norman
The document summarizes key points from a speech given by John Coleman on rural intelligence and the Big Society initiative. It discusses how (1) rural communities are well positioned to benefit from increased localism and civic engagement promoted by the Big Society, (2) Defra is working to empower rural communities and support local decision making through new policies like neighborhood planning and participatory budgeting, and (3) upcoming legislation and initiatives like the Localism Bill and a national rural statement aim to give more power to local councils and communities to shape changes in their areas.
Community Rights Made Real project - Donna Roberts presentation to Dudley MBC...Lorna Prescott
The document summarizes key aspects of the UK's proposed Community Rights Bill, including the Right to Buy, Right to Build, and Right to Challenge. It outlines a "Community Rights Project" aimed at enabling community groups to take advantage of the new opportunities and investigate how to use community rights in Dudley. The project will work with local partners to raise awareness, map potential for community rights, and develop an action plan. It discusses how different stakeholders like service users, local communities, and service providers may be affected and how they can get involved.

Portsmouth presentation 11th march 2014 (v2) for blogJohn Smith
Giles Piercy from Locality Matters gave a presentation about their work with the White City Estate community in London. They have taken over running services like the community center and parenting programs. Locality Matters is also exploring taking on more services from the local council like social care, repairs, and reviews of all council services. Some key lessons they have learned include having a strong community leader, acquiring a community asset like the center, replacing rather than augmenting existing services, improving branding and marketing, choosing attractive services to take over, and working from an asset-based view of the community's skills rather than focusing on deficiencies. Their goal is to empower the community to better deliver and manage local services.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
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).

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

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
