The soap based mechanism for home environment using web services ecij
Recent advancements in smart home systems have increased the utilization of consumer devices and appliances in home environment. However, many of these devices and appliances exhibit certain degree of heterogeneity and do not adapt towards joint execution of operation. Hence, it is rather difficult to perform interoperation especially to realize desired services preferred by home users. In this paper, we propose a new intelligent interoperability framework for smart home systems execution as well as coordinating them in a federated manner. The framework core is based on Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) technology that provides platform independent interoperation among heterogeneous
systems. We have implemented the interoperability framework with several home devices to demonstrate
their effectiveness for interoperation. The performance of the framework was tested in Local Area Network(LAN) environment and proves to be reliable in smart home setting1.

‘Science for social justice’ may only be achieved when politicians, decision-makers and science-policymakers set a considered and thoughtful agenda to utilize science, in reasoned and innovative ways, as a driving force for positive societal change to promote equity through innovation. However, to date, tangible results in many contexts have been mixed at best, especially in delivering a reliable mechanism for, or a path to, sustainable social equity and justice for all. As global inequality increases and much political decision-making remains myopic and contingent, the emotive and essential power of ‘science for social justice’ can be lost as scientists and decision-makers struggle to actualize meaningful change. We, as scientists, in collaboration with our decision-making peers, have a golden opportunity to correct this through clear and novel proposals for meaningful projects based on advanced research opportunities. In this regard, we contend that ‘science for social justice’ can only be fully realized if it is symbiotically connected to providing scientific opportunity, where no such opportunity previously existed. This inevitably foments and sustains prosperity, an essential factor for social justice to grow. Therefore, the goal must be to establish opportunity that serves as the bridge to prosperity. How can we accomplish this when most of the world relies on relatively few countries for new scientific advances and technologies?

This synthesis review of key factors supporting small-scale coastal fisheries management was undertaken by the Foundation Center with financial support from the Rockefeller Foundation. The work was carried out by a team based at IMM Ltd, in Exeter, UK, from July to September 2013.
A Synthesis Review of Key Lessons in Programs Relating to Oceans and FisheriesThe Rockefeller Foundation
This synthesis was designed to provide an evidence base on the success factors in small-scale coastal fisheries management in developing countries and, in turn, to assist the Rockefeller Foundation in developing its strategy for its Oceans and Fisheries Initiative. In doing so, it identifies and describes some 20 key factors believed to influence success in small-scale coastal fisheries management.
The report was completed via a rapid review of key sources of knowledge from formal published literature, institutional literature, key informants and Internet searches. The focus was on key success factors in achieving a balance of social, economic and ecological benefits from the management of small-scale coastal fisheries.
This synthesis review of key factors supporting small-scale coastal fisheries management was commissioned by the Rockefeller Foundation through a contract with Itad Ltd. The work was carried out by a team based at IMM Ltd, in Exeter, UK, from July to September 2013.
It was designed to provide an evidence base on the success factors in small-scale coastal fisheries management in developing countries and, in turn, to assist the Rockefeller Foundation in developing its strategy for its Oceans and Fisheries Initiative. In doing so, it identifies and describes some 20 key factors believed to influence success in small-scale coastal fisheries management.
The synthesis first presents an outline of the methods used in the study followed by a background of coastal fisheries, an introduction to fisheries management themes, and a review and discussion of some of the critical factors that influence success. It then offers some conclusions and possible ways forward.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

3. 10 Factors about Clusters in the
Australian Landscape
1 Confusion between
• - clusters as a physical phenomenon, and
• - cluster programs as an engagement mechanism
to address market failure.
2. Cluster programs’ are really about addressing
coordination failure, managerial myopia,
information failure, negative externalities,
monopoly power, missing markets. Good message
for Treasury officials.
4. /2
3. Accept that 50% of people are not inherently
collaborative. So go around them – and look for
triggers e.g. events, contracts, champions.
4. Most successful cluster programs? - Cairns
(super yachts, tropical foods, fisheries) and
Adelaide (water, Defence Teaming Centre)
5. /3
5. Strongest clusters? Barossa wine, Torquay
surfwear, Northern Adelaide engineering, Gold
Coast tourism, Yarragon antiques.
•
6. Multi-level funding is best - led by states
with federal and local support, with companies
collaborating on specific projects.
6. /4
7. Cluster success factors – order of importance
1. Technology/knowledge formation.
2. Local champions.
3. Social capital.
4. Critical mass of suppliers.
5. Specialised infrastructure.
6. Growth prospects.
7. Governance structures.
8. Sophisticated home demand.
9. Local competition.
10. Existence of threat.
7. /5
8. Federal 2014 Budget - a kick in the guts
9. Suggestion 1 - Shift emphasis to state-local
government and industry
10. Suggestion 2 - Focus on outcomes, and
supply chains. And don’t give up on feds e.g.
Medical Research Fund.
