Making decisions on water resources
This document discusses integrated water resource management (IWRM) and its implementation in the Mekong River Basin. It notes that IWRM is context dependent and that there is often a difference between best practices and political will. Decentralization is recommended to empower local communities, incorporate diverse knowledge, increase public awareness and acceptance, and avoid opposition movements. However, local knowledge alone is not sufficient and interscalar dialogue is needed. The document examines country-specific water uses in the basin and challenges implementing IWRM due to a lack of stakeholder empowerment, dialogue, and rubber stamping of plans without community input. Successful governance requires stakeholder involvement and avoiding conflicting goals across scales.
Global River Flood Risks

Chandan Mahanta, Guwahati Dialogue -10th September 2013
This document discusses development challenges and opportunities in the Brahmaputra River basin. It notes that the basin experiences significant flooding and erosion that negatively impact vulnerable populations. It advocates for an integrated approach to water resource management that incorporates flood management, hydropower development, climate change adaptation, drinking water issues, navigation, and regional cooperation between riparian states. The key recommendations are adopting integrated water resource management policies and frameworks, strengthening institutions and regional cooperation, improving data sharing, and ensuring community participation and environmental protections.
Wider Approach to Incentives for Water Management
Steven N. Schonberger discusses broadening approaches to incentives for sustainable and efficient water management. Incentives have been used for millennia to manage shared water resources and avoid conflicts. Now, incentives come from many interconnected sectors and issues like macroeconomic concerns, the water-energy nexus, and food security policies. A comprehensive approach is needed that addresses scarcity of water, organizational capacity, and accountability in water management through decentralized management, new technologies, and policies that share responsibilities. The ultimate incentive is recognizing that the Earth has limited resources and must be cared for sustainably.
Integrated Water Resources Management System
eWater Source is Australia’s first river basin-scale water modelling system. It is an enterprise platform which enables organisations to make a step change improvement in their approach to Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM).
eWater Source allows users to build on, rather than replace, existing models. It effectively integrates each organisation’s existing models, with a holistic approach to water management including human and ecological impacts. It has been developed to address water sharing and savings for entire river and connected groundwater systems including cities, agricultural and environmental demands. Its groundbreaking capability links science, policy and management allowing decision makers to consider future scenarios and alternative management options for catchments, urban environments and rivers systems.
Malik Fida A. Khan - Dhaka dialogue, August 21, 2013
The document discusses the need for transnational policy dialogue and water cooperation in the Brahmaputra River basin. It outlines several international policy directives and conferences that have emphasized integrated water resources management and cooperative management of shared water basins. Proper water governance requires cooperative management across administrative boundaries based on river basins. Regional cooperation in areas like flood management, water sharing, and hydropower development will be important for the sustainable management of the Brahmaputra and other transboundary rivers in the region.

The document summarizes a study on the impact of post-construction support on drinking water systems in El Salvador. It finds that communities receiving technical assistance through circuit rider models had less contaminated water and more sustainable water systems compared to control communities without support. The circuit rider model involves monthly technician visits, operator training, and financial support. It costs less than $1 per household served per year and could be adapted to other areas.
Water_Connection_Charges_FullReport
Most communities base water connection charges solely on water meter size, which fails to correlate strongly with actual water use. A few communities use multi-factor connection charges that consider lot size, landscaping type, and fixture efficiency to better allocate costs proportionate to predicted water demand. Case studies in Colorado highlight how these charges can incentivize more water-efficient development and avoid infrastructure costs. The report recommends utilities consider refined, multi-factor connection charges to encourage water conservation and development equity.
T12 majdi gouja nena exec summary
This document discusses valuing the goods and services provided by wetlands to inform better management and decision making. It notes that while some ecosystem services like crops are easy to observe and quantify, many important services like climate regulation are undervalued. When wetlands are degraded, the costs of losing these services often go unnoticed. The document examines studies that have economically assessed wetland services, finding regulating services like flood prevention and wastewater treatment provide the most substantial benefits. It advocates combining different valuation approaches to better represent the full value of wetlands and inform their protection and sustainable use.

Chapter9sustainibilityofwaterresources 130630060726-phpapp01
This document discusses the sustainable management of water resources. It notes that river basins integrate economic, social, and environmental systems across political boundaries, so water management decisions should reflect this integrative nature. When systems are not managed sustainably, major problems can result as shown by the example of the Aral Sea, where unsustainable irrigation practices led to environmental damage and loss of livelihoods. Achieving sustainable water resources management requires taking a basin-wide, multidisciplinary approach that considers both current and future needs.
Chapter 9 sustainibility of water resources
This document discusses the sustainable management of water resources. It notes that river basins integrate economic, social, and environmental systems across political boundaries, so water management decisions should reflect this integrative nature. When systems are not managed sustainably, such as in the Aral Sea region where unsustainable irrigation practices depleted the sea, severe environmental, health, and economic problems can result. Achieving sustainable water resources management requires taking a basin-scale, multidisciplinary approach that considers impacts across different levels and balances current and future needs.

Seminar human impact on rivers
Human civilizations have long depended on rivers for survival, with early civilizations in regions like Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China developing along major river valleys. However, as human populations and activities have increased, they have placed growing stress on rivers through activities like water extraction, waste dumping, and infrastructure development. This has degraded river ecosystems and impacted their ability to provide services. Parameters like water flow, sediment levels, pollution, and biodiversity are used to measure a river's health and the human impacts on it. The case of the Yamuna River in India illustrates how urban and industrial waste dumping can turn a major river highly toxic, reducing it to a local extinction of its natural ecosystems. Experts recommend various
Lessons from Iran Mukhtar Hashemi
This document summarizes the key issues around allocating environmental water requirements for Lake Urmia in Iran using an ecohydrological approach. It discusses how declining water levels in the lake due to human and climatic factors have led to a national outcry. A multi-stakeholder process was established to allocate water among the three provinces sharing the lake basin. After 21 months of discussions, a water allocation decision was reached for the first time based on stakeholder involvement and transparency. However, technical uncertainties remained an issue during the process. Further analysis of ethical and cultural perspectives was recommended to better inform water allocation decisions.

The Role of Regulatory Frameworks in Ensuring the Sustainability of Community...Mohamad Mova Al'Afghani
The document summarizes findings from a study on regulatory frameworks for community-based water and sanitation (CB-Watsan) in Indonesia. Key findings include: 1) National policies lack clear definitions and delineations around "community" systems, creating issues; 2) Regulatory frameworks discriminate against CB-Watsan and do not secure their assets; 3) Case studies in Nusa Tenggara and East Java found differences in factors like access to resources and the role of local traditions and politics. Recommendations focus on integrating CB-Watsan distinctly into policies and regulations to ensure long-term sustainability.Lecture on the regulation of sharing economies
The document discusses regulation of sharing economies. It begins with an overview of sharing economy concepts and characteristics, including definitions that emphasize peer-to-peer access to goods and services. Issues discussed include the redefinition of traditional jobs in favor of gig work and how this challenges labor laws. The document then examines different regulatory approaches, highlighting challenges with conventional regulation for new sharing economy platforms. It proposes a collaborative, self-regulation model where companies set standards negotiated with governments and use customer ratings and banning from networks as enforcement mechanisms.

The State Retreats and Never Returns: Consequences of Neoliberal Reforms on A...Mohamad Mova Al'Afghani
1) Indonesia has reformed its administrative law and reduced the role of the state in providing public services through privatization, outsourcing, and contracting.
2) This has limited legal protections for citizens as private providers are not bound by laws governing transparency, participation, and access to justice.
3) A case study of water provision in Batam shows citizens had no legal standing to challenge poor service as they were not direct parties to the concession contract.Buku transparansi air jakarta final ca 17 sept 2011

Steps presentation
This document discusses issues around water privatization in Indonesia. It notes that several NGOs asked the Constitutional Court to revoke the 2004 Water Resources Law due to concerns about privatization. There is debate around how opaque the rules are regarding private sector participation in water services. While the law allows for some private involvement, the implementing regulations are unclear, such as whether it is limited to new "greenfield" projects. Examples from Jakarta, Bogor, and Batam show problems with neglected private contracts and lack of regulation of monopolistic practices. The document concludes that while laws like the Public Service and Freedom of Information Acts have potential to improve regulation of private sector participation, reforms are still needed for effective oversight.
Poster template grad day
Victoria (Australia), England (UK) and Jakarta (Indonesia) are compared to determine how legal frameworks can enable transparency in water utilities regulation. An analytical framework is devised to evaluate transparency, examining active disclosure rules for policy creation, regulatory processes, and utility governance, as well as passive disclosure rules regarding applicability, exemptions, and relevance to natural monopolies. Preliminary findings are examined.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
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.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

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. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.Skybuffer SAM4U tool for SAP license adoption

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