KTN has launched a Metamaterials Innovation Network, which aims to promote the UK’s commercial exploitation and technology transfer of metamaterials through brokered or encouraged collaboration across the value chain.
Despite the UK’s academic research leadership in this field, metamaterials lack industrial uptake from end-users. Commercialisation of metamaterials is currently challenging as these materials are not easy to understand, require sizable resources to deliver useful products, require skills and expertise that are difficult to find and require the creation of novel supply chains. Join us to understand how this Innovation Network will enable greater uptake of these materials.

Robert Gagne's theory of instruction outlines five types of learning and nine instructional events that should be included when designing effective lessons. The five types of learning are verbal information, intellectual skills, cognitive strategies, motor skills, and attitudes. The nine instructional events are gaining attention, informing learners of objectives, stimulating recall, presenting stimuli, providing learning guidance, eliciting performance, providing feedback, assessing performance, and enhancing retention and transfer. Gagne believed lessons should be tailored to students and actively involve them to improve motivation and focus. The theory provides guidance for teachers to identify learning outcomes, consider contextual factors, and employ a variety of instructional strategies.
MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry is a technique used to analyze proteins. It works by ionizing protein samples using a laser and then measuring the time it takes for the ions to travel through a flight tube, which allows calculating the mass-to-charge ratio. The sample is mixed with an absorbing matrix and dried on a target plate before being ionized by a laser pulse. Ions are accelerated through a flight tube and reach a detector, with lighter ions traveling faster and reaching it first. The time of flight is converted to a mass spectrum, allowing identification of proteins in the sample. MALDI-TOF provides sensitive, high-throughput protein analysis and is widely used in fields like proteomics, microbiology,

Robert Gagne was an experimental psychologist known for developing the theory of instruction which consists of five types of learning and nine events of instruction. His theory emphasizes building instruction on a hierarchy of simple to complex skills. The nine events include gaining attention, informing learners of objectives, stimulating recall of prior learning, presenting new material, providing guidance, eliciting performance, providing feedback, assessing performance, and enhancing retention and transfer.
Gagne's theory of instruction outlines nine instructional events that are meant to support different types of learning outcomes. The nine events are gaining attention, informing learners of objectives, stimulating recall of prior learning, presenting stimulus materials, providing guidance for learning, eliciting performance, providing feedback, assessing performance, and enhancing retention and transfer. Gagne also categorized five different types of learning outcomes - verbal information, intellectual skills, cognitive strategies, attitudes, and motor skills. Each learning outcome requires different instructional conditions and events.
Robert Gagne was an American psychologist known for his theory of instruction, which outlines nine instructional events that are important for learning. These events include gaining attention, informing learners of objectives, stimulating recall of prior knowledge, presenting new material, providing guidance, eliciting performance, providing feedback, assessing performance, and enhancing retention and transfer. Gagne also proposed a hierarchy of five different types of learning outcomes of increasing complexity, from simple stimulus-response learning to more complex problem solving. His work provided a framework for instructional design based on understanding internal learning processes.

The European Open Science Cloud: just what is it?Carole Goble
Presented at Jisc and CNI leaders conference 2018, 2 July 2018, Oxford, UK (https://www.jisc.ac.uk/events/jisc-and-cni-leaders-conference-02-jul-2018). The European Open Science Cloud. What exactly is it? In principle it is conceived as a virtual environment with open and seamless services for storage, management, analysis and re-use of research data, across borders and scientific disciplines. How? By federating existing scientific data infrastructures, currently dispersed across disciplines and Member States. In practice, what it is depends on the stakeholder. To European Research Infrastructures it’s a coordinated mission to organise and exchange their data, metadata, software and services to be FAIR – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable – and to use e-Infrastructures, either EU or commercial. To EU e-Infrastructures offering data storage and cloud services, it’s a funding mission to integrate their services, policies and organisational structures, and to be used by the Research Infrastructures. To agencies it’s a means to promote Open Science, standardisation, cross-disciplinary research and coordinated investment with a dream of a “one stop shop” for researchers. And for Libraries?

Metadata for audiovisual heritage: Semiotic considerationsIndrek Ibrus
- New digitization initiatives across Europe are working to digitize film and television heritage collections, which will cost at least 5 billion euros to digitize all of Europe's audiovisual heritage.
- Countries like France, the UK, and the Netherlands have benchmark projects digitizing thousands of films and integrating metadata databases.
- There is an emphasis on not just preservation but reuse and innovation using digitized content, but memory institutions lack budgets and capabilities for innovation while private institutions lack incentives.
- Standards for audiovisual metadata are fragmented early but interoperability is needed, requiring further standardization, though at what cost regarding different stakeholder interests.

6. RESEARCH QUESTIONS
Main research question:
What are the affordances of
digital radio standards in Europe in 2015,
exemplified by DAB/DAB+, DRM and IP/Internet?
Sub-questions:
What implementation and development lines have been negotiated in Europe?
What discourses around the different standards can be discerned?
8. THE SOCIAL SHAPING OF
TECHNOLOGY
• Technologies are socially and historically contingent in their implementation
and design
• Technologies are determined among the possible technical options as a result of
a selection process, which does not entails purely technical factors, but
social considerations influence the content of technologies.
• Technology does not emerge from the influence of a single dominant logic or
determinant, but its development trajectories are manifold, leading to
potentially different outcomes.
• In their diversity the final technologies have different implications for society
and more importantly for different social groups belonging to it.
9. –Williams, R. and Edge, D. (1996).
“Technology does not develop according to an inner
technical logic, but is instead a social product, patterned
by the conditions of its creation and use”

13. SCOT
THE SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION OF TECHNOLOGY
“Outwards analysis”:
From the technology to
the selection environment
The aim is to relate the content and
interpretations of a technology to a complex
socio-economic and political context
14. THE CONCEPT OF
AFFORDANCES
• Affordances are links between perception and
action upon attributes of an artefact
• Affordances are subordinated to their perception
• Affordances are perceived differently according
to culture, social environment, experiences,
expectations and intentions of the perceiver
15. AN EXAMPLE OF
AFFORDANCES
“Affordances point to the interaction between object and actor,
hence they refer both to the object’s and actor’s attributes”

16. SCOT AS METHODOLOGY
1. Selection of the competing technologies
2. Selection of the social groups for which there is a relevant “problem” or
contingent issue
3. Selection of sub-groups with specific requirements
4. Examination of the conflicting technical requirements, conflicting solutions and
other conflicts highlighting interpretative flexibility
5. Examination of the stabilization process: arguments brought by different social
groups in support of their solutions
6. Examination of solutions that achieve closure.

22. DAB/DAB+
• Created by EBU members, PSBs and Electronics Manufacturers (Bosch, Siemens,
Telefunken, Philips,Thomson etc.)
• Created to afford nation-wide coverage, low local flexibility
• Spectrum efficient and higher audio quality thanks to multiplex channelization
• Multiplex: 16 channels in 1536kHz bandwidth
• Single Frequency Network (SFN)
• Multimedia
• Conditional Access
• Operates inVHF band III and UHF L-band
23. DRM
• Created by commercial broadcasters to specifically digitalize bands below 30MHz (AM)
• Created to afford both large nation-wide areas coverage and local flexibility
• Spectrum efficient and higher audio quality thanks to multiplex channelization
• Mini-Multiplex: 1-3 channels in 96kHz
• Single Frequency Network (SFN)
• Multimedia
• Conditional Access
• Reuses part of existing analogue transmission facilities
• DRM (with DRM+) covers the whole radio spectrum
24. RADIOVIA IP
• Webcasting, Podcasting,Audio Streaming Services
• Convergence
• On-Demand
• Global distribution for every station
• Broadens (and sometimes confuses) the traditional idea of radio

• Regulation states that where the capacity of a multiplex can not be filled by local stations,
those willing to be transmitted by DAB+ must cover the full licensing fee
• NRK and the main commercial broadcasters founded a joint-venture with the ambition of
becoming the organization issuing digital licenses in the future
• Norkring is the only network operator in the country
• Some 22 local stations were enforced to stop FM transmissions
• The only local licenses were awarded with no coverage requirements, no warranty over
investment risks and the possibility of officialization after the trials.
51. • DAB+ started by Sveriges Radio
• First public DAB+ transmissions in 1995
• Commercial broadcasters were involved only with the 2010 Radio & TV Act, which opened digital licenses
for commercial broadcasters
• Regulation states that where the capacity of a multiplex can not be filled by local stations, those willing to be
transmitted by DAB+ must cover the full licensing fee
• Regulation does not mandate any bitrate requirement, instead the minimal accommodation of services on
the multiplex is 16 channels at 72kbps
