Abstract:
The Global Connectivity Report 2022 takes stock of the progress in digital connectivity over the past three decades. It provides a detailed assessment of the current state of connectivity and how close the world is to achieving universal and meaningful connectivity, using a unique analytical framework. It goes on to showcase solutions and good practices to accelerate progress. The second part of the report consists of seven thematic deep dives on infrastructure, affordability, financing, the pandemic, regulation, youth, and data. Chapter 3 explores options to accelerate progress towards universal and meaningful connectivity. Expanding broadband networks is needed to eliminate the remaining blind spots and improve the quality of connectivity. Measures include reducing constraints on foreign direct investment to attract capital for upgrading and expanding digital infrastructure; ensuring sound ICT sector regulation to help build competitive markets and enhance predictability; promoting infrastructure sharing to reduce costs; ensuring the supply of adequate, inexpensive spectrum to help reduce coverage gaps; and ensuring sufficient capacity and a shift to new generations of mobile broadband. Solutions to ensure an adequate energy provision to power ICT infrastructure include policy incentives, reducing duties and taxes on green power equipment and allowing independent power producers. Chapter 4 explores the importance of middle-mile connectivity as countries develop digital economies – achieving better quality, lower costs and greater redundancy. The “middle mile” consists of infrastructure responsible for storing and exchanging data. It is an overlooked yet critical link in the connectivity chain, between international connectivity – or “first-mile” connectivity – and “last-mile” connectivity, made of the infrastructure that connects the users, which is hence more visible and tangible. The three key components of a domestic data infrastructure ecosystem are Internet exchange points (IXPs), data centres and cloud computing.

Abstract:
Analyzing the efficiency of transport infrastructure connectivity and trade in the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is very important for regional integration for international trade in the RCEP. This study aims to significantly measure the efficiency of the connectivity of infrastructure in the RCEP for improving the performance of infrastructure connection and suggest the way to improve the connection of infrastructure. Therefore, the input and output variables of infrastructure connectivity have been inserted to achieve this objective. The inputs are: the number of ports, rail range, and road networks, the number of land borders, the number of maritime borders, number of cross border points, railway linkage with other countries, number of ports connected with railways, and the number of ports connected with road base on the “intermodal and multimodal concept”. On the other hand, the output factors most related to trade and economics are GDP, transport, import, and export volume. The paper applied DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) model by using DEAP software to analyze the data. The result reveals that the efficiency of infrastructures connectivity and international trade in 10 countries were efficient and 5 countries were inefficient. The research study presents ways of development to improve the connectivity by investing in the basic infrastructures, such as increasing the logistics connection points and driving forward for international trade in the RCEP.

Abstract:
To make Asia more economically sustainable and resilient against external shocks, regional economies need to be rebalanced toward regional demand- and trade-driven growth through increased regional connectivity. The effectiveness of this connectivity depends on the quality of hard and soft infrastructure. Of particular importance in terms of soft (facilitating) infrastructure that makes hard (physical) infrastructure work are the facilitating institutions that support connectivity through appropriate policies, reforms, systems, procedures, and through promoting effective coordination and cooperation. Asia has many overlapping subregional institutions involved in national and regional energy, transport, and telecommunications infrastructure connectivity. However, these institutions are characterized as being less effective, informal, and lacking a clear and binding system of rules and policies. To build seamless Asian connectivity, Asia needs an effective, formal, and rules-based institutional framework. The paper presents a new institutional framework for Pan-Asian connectivity together with the organizational structures of two new regional institutional mechanisms, namely the Pan-Asian Infrastructure Forum and the Asian Infrastructure Fund.

Abstract:
The connectivity construction of the Maritime Silk Road in the 21st century has created more opportunities for trade and further promoted maritime trade among countries along the route. As an important hub of the maritime connectivity network, the construction of port infrastructure connectivity is of great significance. Taking the port infrastructure of 30 countries along the 21st-century Maritime Silk Road as an example, this paper analyzes the current state of port connectivity construction in China. It identifies that the port infrastructure connectivity between China and Southeast Asia is the most developed and establishes an indicator system for evaluating the potential for port infrastructure connectivity. Based on the principal component analysis (PCA), it is found that Germany, Singapore, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and other countries have relatively high port infrastructure connectivity potential. Finally, suggestions are put forward: China should strengthen the connectivity construction of port infrastructure with Europe and prioritize policy exchanges with Germany to align port development strategies and enhance bilateral maritime trade by establishing complementary trade chains.

Abstract:
While roads can present weak to complete barriers to wildlife, depending on the animal and traffic volume, mitigations such as under-crossings and green bridges on highways at least partially increase the permeability of the landscape to some of these species. The few studies evaluating the effectiveness of these structures for at least three years typically focused on a single species. Here, we monitored the crossing structure under Boeckman Road, in Wilsonville Oregon, for wildlife activity across summer seasons for ten years, since construction of the road and subsequent opening to traffic. This long-term multi-species dataset, which includes monitoring when the road was closed to traffic has provided a unique opportunity. Wildlife activity was collected using sand track pads monitored during summer seasons from 2009 to 2018. Wildlife activity showed a significant community level response from year to year and species-specific responses to year, vegetation change, disturbance, detection area, and previous experimental additions of artificial light. Roads create barriers to animal movement through collisions and habitat fragmentation. Investigators have attempted to use traffic volume, the number of vehicles passing a point on a road segment, to predict effects to wildlife populations approximately linearly and along taxonomic lines; however, taxonomic groupings cannot provide sound predictions because closely related species often respond differently. We assess the role of wildlife behavioral responses to traffic volume as a tool to predict barrier effects from vehicle-caused mortality and avoidance, to provide an early warning system that recognizes traffic volume as a trigger for mitigation, and to better interpret roadkill data. We propose four categories of behavioral response based on the perceived danger to traffic: Nonresponders, Pausers, Speeders, and Avoiders. By considering a species' risk-avoidance response to traffic, managers can make more appropriate and timely decisions to mitigate effects before populations decline or become locally extinct. Barriers to animal movement can isolate populations, impacting their genetic diversity, susceptibility to disease, and access to resources. Barriers to movement may be caused by artificial light, but few studies have experimentally investigated the effects of artificial light on movement for a suite of terrestrial vertebrates. Therefore, we studied the effect of ecological light pollution on animal usage of a bridge under-road passage structure. On a weekly basis, sections of the structure were subjected to different light treatments including no light added, followed by a Reference period when lights were off in all the structure sections. Findings suggest that artificial light may be reducing habitat connectivity for some species though not providing a strong barrier for others. Through the work conducted herein we provide contributions to the understanding of how elements of the built environment impact wildlife communities ability to move across the landscape. Additionally, we provide new tools to support resource managers in barrier mitigation and connectivity planning. Habitat fragmentation effects are a complex set of issues that require resources and collaboration to reach meaningful solutions. The work presented here can also support decision-making, communication, and collaborative efforts that will ultimately result in on-the-ground impacts to reduce fragmentation effects and mitigate existing barriers effectively to promote the long-term viability of wildlife and the systems they depend on.

Abstract:
'Conservation is about people, not just animals' argued Prince William in a letter to The Financial Times , written to gather support for ending ivory poaching and trading. This truism is often repeated by conservationists; we are frequently reminded that what we do - as humans - influences nature 'out there'. Nevertheless, conservation science often hesitates to interrogate what we do as organised human societies. Time and again, that leads to somewhat simplifying analyses of humanity's enormous power in shaping the whole Earth System -currently argued to surpass the power of geological forces. A case in point could be the isolation of corruption in Africa as the main driver for ivory market explosion in the last decade. Without considering the political-economy not just of ivory, but of the global-to-local societal organisation that allows for thousands of elephants and rhinos to be killed - for something of so low use-value such as ivory - little understanding can be shed on this alarming trend. I argue, and hope I have shown in this thesis, that we should aim towards enriching what conservation understands as its field of vision and allow the latter to encompass not just human and nonhuman nature and societies, as Prince William rightfully argues, but also the political and societal. I would be satisfied if by going through this thesis the reader would be convinced of just this argument. I am not claiming to be the first to identify this contradiction within conservation, but contra a sizeable number of scientists who work on similar subjects, I am normatively for conservation. A wealth of research has been published on conservation-society relationships that interrogates wider political, societal and economic constrains and opportunities as they relate to conservation. Usually though, research on what could be called critical conservation studies is (a) published in journals that conservationists do not read, and (b) is conducted by non-conservationists, often critical of conservation as a science and praxis per se. Thus all this wealth has little import to wider discussions about the future of conservation science and practice, and is even considered by conservationists as hostile to their agenda. I hope it is obvious from the above that I place this piece of research within the wide field of conservation science - despite drawing from a variety of disciplines. In essence, this piece of work looks at the relation between political-economic transformations and the way societies think about, manage and regulate nature. Geographically, my focus is on England, but with a sideways glance to developments at the EU level. Historically, the scope is circumscribed by two years: 1981, the year of the Toxteth riots in Liverpool, and 2015, the year I submitted. Naturally, in this country-wide, 24 year study I have not even attempted to include 'everything'. I focused on what after examination of empirical data I considered to be key moments and places in the evolution of English conservation. I begin with a section that introduces the reader into the area of study , followed and a brief literature-based summary of conservation in England from the beginning of the 20th century. The next three chapters should be read as a small trilogy that discusses the general trends in conservation policy and governance in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis (Chapter 3), followed by two smaller chapters (vignettes) that study post-financial crisis landscape scale conservation from: (a) a policy and governance perspective (Chapter 4); a use of science and scientific metaphors perspective (Chapter 5). The following two chapters try to reconstruct the where and when (geography and history are important) specific conservation policies and practices emerge, always in relation to economic and political changes. Chapter 6 is a genealogy of green infrastructure, from its emergence in the post-riot Liverpool landscape of 1981, to its current amalgamation with ecosystem services and monetary-valuation-of-nature milieu. Chapter 7 looks at biodiversity offsetting and argues that changing economic and transport geographies are crucial in understanding why biodiversity offsetting emerged as a solution to wildlife-development conflict in this instance and in the South East of England in particular. I conclude with a proposal for a new conservation that places utopia at the centre of its methodology (Chapter 8).

Abstract:
Distributed Generation (DG) from alternate sources and smart grid technologies represent good solutions for the increase in energy demands. Employment of these DG assets requires solutions for the new technical challenges that are accompanied by the integration and interconnection into operational power systems. A DG infrastructure comprised of alternate energy sources in addition to conventional sources, is developed as a test bed. The test bed is operated by synchronizing, wind, photovoltaic, fuel cell, micro generator and energy storage assets, in addition to standard AC generators. Connectivity of these DG assets is tested for viability and for their operational characteristics. The control and communication layers for dynamic operations are developed to improve the connectivity of alternates to the power system. A real time application for the operation of alternate sources in microgrids is developed. Multi agent approach is utilized to improve stability and sequences of actions for black start are implemented. Experiments for control and stability issues related to dynamic operation under load conditions have been conducted and verified.

Abstract:
This thesis explores different meanings and practices of green infrastructure (GI). In particular. it examines the scope for GI in the Greater Cairo Region (GCR) of Egypt. In a number of countries. especially in North America and Europe, the nature of GI is increasingly \\e11 established and there have been some successful attempts at implementation. However practice in Egypt appears to be encountering a number of problems. These are principally associated with the aridity of the country (although it has a long tradition of irrigation from the Nile). weaknesses of planning and implementation procedures. rapid urbanisation and pressure for land. and weak integration of the green- space resource. However, there are also some promising opportunities associated with social and cultural functions of open space. recent planning visions. and a range of natural environmental assets. This thesis focuses on three main case studies in the GCR. Evidence is gathered through IKONOS GIS maps of Greater Cairo, interviews with specialists who have responsibilities for spatial planning either in academic or professional sectors in Egypt, site visits and critical interpretation of planning documents. The key findings concerning substantive aspects relate to GI concepts elements, and education. Primarily the findings indicate that there is potential for the GCR to be linked through a GI which integrates natural. ecological and social-cultural functions. They findings concerning procedural aspects emphasize the need to bridge the gaps between planning processes and organizations by considering G I as a fundamental layer in planning strategies. The findings also point to a need to change the traditional view of aridity as a negative feature into an advantageous aspect, particularly in Middle Eastern environments. The thesis concludes that improvements in both substantive and procedural aspects of landscape planning are necessary if the GCR is to have an effective GI.

Abstract:
The expected increase in precipitation and temperature in Scandinavia, and especially short-time heavy precipitation, will increase the frequency of flooding. Urban areas are the most vulnerable, and specifically, the road infrastructure. The accumulation of large volumes of water and sediments on road-stream intersections gets severe consequences for the road drainage structures. The need for a tool to identify characteristics that impacts the occurrence of flooding, and to predict future event is thus essential. This study integrates the spatial and temporal soil moisture properties into the research about flood prediction methods. Soil moisture data is derived from remote sensing techniques, with focus on the soil moisture specific satellites ASCAT and SMOS. Furthermore, several physical catchments descriptors (PCDs) are used to identify catchment characteristics that are prone to flooding and an inventory of current road drainage facilities are conducted. Finally, the index of sediment connectivity (IC) by Cavalli, Trevisani, Comiti, and Marchi (2013) is implemented to assess the flow of water and sediment within the catchment. A case study of two areas in Sweden, Västra Götaland and Värmland, that was affected by severe flooding in August 2014 are included. The results show that the method with using soil moisture satellite data is promising for the inclusion of soil moisture data into estimations of flooding and the index of sediment connectivity.
De förväntade ökningarna i nederbörd och temperatur i Skandinavien, och speciellt extrem korttidsnederbörd, kommer att öka frekvensen av översvämningar. Urbana områden är de mest sårbara, och speciellt väginfrastrukturen. Ackumuleringen av stora volymer av vatten och sediment där väg och vattendrag möts leder till allvarliga konsekvenser för dräneringskonstruktionerna. Behovet av ett verktyg för att identifiera egenskaper som påverkar förekomsten av översvämningar, och för att förutsäga framtida händelser är väsentligt. Studien integrerar markfuktighet både rumsligt och tidsmässigt i forskningen om metoder för översvämningsrisker. Markfuktighetsdata är inkluderat från fjärranalysteknik, med fokus på de specifika satelliterna för markfuktighet, ASCAT och SMOS. Vidare är flertalet faktorer (PCDs) inkluderade för att identifiera egenskaper i avrinningsområden som är benägna till översvämning samt en inventering av nuvarande vägdräneringskonstruktioner. Slutligen är ett index med sediment connectivity (Cavalli et al., 2013) implementerat för att se flödet av vatten och sediment inom avrinningsområdet. En fallstudie med två områden i Sverige, Västra Götaland och Värmland, som drabbades av allvarliga översvämningar i augusti 2014 är inkluderat. Resultaten visar att metoden att använda markfuktighet från satellitdata är lovande för inkludering i uppskattningar av översvämningsrisk och i indexet med sediment connectivity.

Abstract:
A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Science and Agriculture in fulfilment of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Zululand, 2017
InfrastructureWireless Mesh Networks (I-WMNs) are increasingly used to provide network connectivity and Internet access to previously under-served areas in the developing world. It is common for some of these deployments to be battery-powered due to a lack of electrical infrastructure in the targeted areas. Thus, the energy-efficiency of these networks gains additional importance. Topology Control (TC) has been previously reported to improve the energy-efficiency and network performance of wireless ad-hoc networks, including I-WMNs. However,simulation-based studies have been relied upon to reach these conclusions and the study of TC prototypes applicable to I-WMNs has largely been limited to design issues. Thus, the study of the efficacy of TC prototypes as a mechanism for improving energy-fficiency and network performance remains an open issue. The thesis addresses this knowledge gap by studying the dynamic, run-time behaviours and the network topologies created by two standards-compatible TC prototypes. This study provides unique insight into how the prototypes consume computational resources, maintain network connectivity, produce cumulative transceiver power savings and affect the workings of the routing protocol being employed. This study also documents the topology instability caused by transceiver power oscillations produced by the PlainTC prototype. A context-based solution to reduce transceiver power oscillations and the subsequent topology instability is proposed. This solution applies the Principal Component Analysis statistical method to historical network data in order to derive the weights associated with each of the identified context variables. A threshold value is defined that only permits a node to adjust its transceiver power output if the observed change in a node’s context exceeds the threshold. The threshold mechanism is incorporated into the PlainTC+ prototype and is shown to reduce topology instability whilst improving network performance when compared to PlainTC.The results obtained in this study suggest that I-WMN topologies formed by TC are able to closely match the performance of networks that do not employ TC. However, this study shows that TC negatively affects the energy efficiency of the network despite achieving cumulative transceiver power savings.

Abstract:
For the last century, automobiles and the roads they require have been a dominant force shaping the modern American landscape. An unrivaled interstate highway system connects major metropolitan areas and is the basis of our transportation infrastructure. Unfortunately, many roadways were not planned or designed with wildlife in mind. As long linear features in the landscape, interstates can function as landscape barriers and cause significant impacts to adjacent wildlife populations. While an aggressive transportation system is being carried out, researchers have only marginally demonstrated the relationships between roadways and wildlife. In such cases, twinned interstate roadways have proven to be the greatest obstacle for wildlife resources. By incorporating ecological design theory into highway planning and design, the transportation community has an opportunity to reassess the short comings of existing highway infrastructure and improve functions of wildlife passage and landscape connectivity. Through system level approaches and analysis applied within an eco-region context, practical solutions can be developed. The following document provides a process for landscape level analysis, wildlife passage structure design and implementation for future planned interstates projects. As a collaborative effort among professionals, we can work towards improving interstate highway systems and retain the relationships occurring within the landscape. The following I-81 design and planning project offers an exceptional opportunity to reassess the inadequacies of the existing interstate infrastructure in terms of landscape connectivity, wildlife resources and public safety, and demonstrate how system level design approaches can give our roadways new shape and form.

Abstract:
Manufacturers have begun to realize that in order to have factories which are adapted to the contemporary conditions required for having state of the art manufacturing, the fixed network cables should be replaced by wireless communication with higher capacity. Cellular connectivity has this ability, but to be able to deliver it to manufacturing factories, they would benefit from establishing a suitable ecosystem design for the technology. The purpose of this research paper is to investigate how infrastructure developing telecom companies can work to establish this business ecosystem for cellular connectivity in manufacturing factories and make sure they remain competitive over time. The purpose was fulfilled using a qualitative case study consisting of 20 semi-structured interviews, conducted at a case company. The case study was complemented with a quantitative study to understand the status of current relationships in the ecosystem. Results of the study indicate that: • As cellular connectivity for manufacturing factories is in an early stage of its life cycle, it is of more importance to convince customers of the technology’s benefits, in order to get a market pull, rather than promoting the own product. • A competitive advantage may not be yielded through getting a minimum viable product to the market in the sense of learning about components and complements. However, the minimum viable product should give rise to an opportunity to establish key relationships and experience across the entire ecosystem. • Relationships to all business partners in the ecosystem are considered important. However, the relationships differ in strength, as they are at different maturity stages and needs various amounts of attention and resources. Accordingly, some effort needs to be put into all relationships, but making sure to understand the optimal amount of attention and resources for each relationship may facilitate the choosing of appropriate effort levels.
Tillverkande fabriker har börjat inse att de fasta nätverkskablarna borde ersättas med trådlös kommunikation med högre kapacitet, för att deras fabriker ska vara anpassade till dagens förhållanden som krävs för toppmodern tillverkning. Cellulär uppkoppling har denna förmåga, men för att leverera tekniken till tillverkande fabriker borde en lämplig ekosystem-design etableras. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur infrastrukturutvecklande telekomföretag kan arbeta för att etablera detta ekosystem för cellulär uppkoppling i tillverkande fabriker samt se till att vara konkurrenskraftiga över tid. Syftet uppnåddes genom en kvalitativ fallstudie bestående av 20 halvstrukturerade intervjuer som genomfördes på ett företag. Fallstudien kompletterades med en kvantitativ studie för att förstå statusen på nuvarande relationer i ekosystemet. Studiens resultat påvisar att: • Eftersom cellulär uppkoppling för fabriker är i ett tidigt skede av sin livscykel så är det av större betydelse att övertyga kunder om teknikens fördelar för att expandera marknaden snarare än att främja företagets egen produkt. • Vart eftersom tekniken mognar är det viktigt att ha en differentieringsstrategi, för att få en tillfredsställande marknadsandel. En konkurrensfördel uppnås inte garanterat genom komponenter och komplement via att företaget får ut en tidig fungerande produkt på marknaden. Den tidigt fungerande produkten bör dock ge upphov till en möjlighet att etablera viktiga relationer och erfarenheter över hela ekosystemet. • Affärsrelationer till alla parter i ekosystemet anses vara viktiga. Relationerna skiljer sig åt i styrka, eftersom de befinner sig i olika mognadsfaser och behöver olika mängder uppmärksamhet och resurser. Följaktligen måste en viss ansträngning sättas in i alla relationer, men förståelse av den optimala mängden uppmärksamhet och resurser för varje relation kan underlätta valet av lämpliga insatsnivåer.

Abstract:
Industrial automation solutions have traditionally been differentiated and separated from one another by different incompatible and non-interoperable standards used for communication between devices. As a result, customers have often found themselves locked into proprietary ecosystems. Vendors have had to develop multiple versions of essentially the same product to support these ecosystems. Over the past few years a new driver has arisen to further bolster this device and system integration push: the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), which can be defined as the connection of devices through the internet in order to collect and share data without human assistance. Since there is no complete IIoT system on the market, the need to integrate a variety of different technologies remains a fact of the IIoT. This combination of different-vendor devices has been limiting innovation and integration of new solutions, with customers not being able to optimize their automation systems to its full value. Intregration of communication levels is an essential requirements for today's most advanced production systems. Furthermore, when it comes to complex processes with real-time requirements, communication standards have their own limitations. In order to face the issue presented, this thesis project will be focused on the study and analysis of a vendor-independent technology able to fulfill today's and tomorrow's industrial communication requirements, with particular focus on Time Sensitive Net- working (TSN) technology designed to face real-time demands.

Abstract:
Development Zones in Asian Borderlands maps the nexus between global capital flows, national economic policies, infrastructural connectivity, migration, and aspirations for modernity in the borderlands of South and South-East Asia. In doing so, it demonstrates how these are transforming borderlands from remote, peripheral backyards to front-yards of economic development and state-building. Development zones encapsulate the networks, institutions, politics and processes specific to enclave development, and offer a new analytical framework for thinking about borderlands; namely, as sites of capital accumulation, territorialisation and socio-spatial changes.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter provides an overview of the growing body of evidence that now documents the positive impact of infrastructure for digital connectivity, as policymakers seek to harness its potential to drive economic development and improve standards of living. However, significant challenges continue to impede the delivery of comprehensive digital connectivity across all social groups and geographical contexts. As ever greater technological advances continue to shape our everyday lives, policymakers must ensure that the existing social and economic digital divide is not exacerbated. This chapter defines infrastructure for digital connectivity, as well as key concepts and terms. This is followed by a review of the economic impact of infrastructure for digital connectivity, most notably broadband, and a discussion of free and municipal Wi-Fi and rural digital hubs. The chapter concludes with an overview of how digital connectivity is measured in international frameworks and composite indices for measuring digital society and the digital economy.

Abstract:
In the present work, a heterogeneous CPU-GPU framework, Mercury, is presented for simulations of complete helicopter configurations. Mercury incorporates three RANS flow solvers, 1) OverTURNS, a structured solver on CPUs, 2) HAMSTR, a line based unstructured solver on CPUs, and 3) GARFIELD, a structured solver on GPUs. The three solvers use the same mesh deformation module and communicate with the overset grid assembler (TIOGA) through a light-weight Python infrastructure. The framework allows seperate connectivity groups for reconnecting and stationary meshes to avoid unnecessary communication and accelerate simulations. The first of three cases presented is a transonic Caradonna-Tung rotor over a sphere, a simple case used for initial validation and load-balancing analysis. The second case presents a ROBIN fuselage with main rotor for comparison against unsteady pressure distributions measured in wind tunnel tests. The final case adds a notional tail rotor and hub to the ROBIN fuselage and rotor for interactional aerodynamic analysis of a full configuration.

Abstract:
A heterogeneous solution infrastructure using both CPU and Graphics Processing Units (GPU) is presented for threedimensional aerodynamic flows on overset meshes. A line based solver on unstructured grids on CPU (HAMSTR) is coupled to a structured RANS solver on GPUs (GARFIELD) through a lightweight Python-based framework. In HAMSTR, "linelets" through the meshes are found in a robust manner and the solver uses line-implicit schemes and high-order reconstruction schemes along these linelets, similar to a structured solver. This methodology is extended to pure unstructured volume grids, to enable solution in complex geometries. Mesh deformation techniques are implemented using a spring analogy to solve for deforming meshes. The GPU solver GARFIELD can operate in an overset environment and shows competitive speedups when compared to well-established structured solvers. The solvers are integrated through a mesh connectivity tool (TIOGA) and are individually demonstrated for cases such as hovering rotor and a rotor in forward flight. Aerodynamic flow past a rotor hub was simulated using the solution framework and the predictions in unsteady drag and spectral components of the drag agreed reasonably well with experiments and other CFD simulations.

An increased number of countries are practising Medical tourism. The market is large, and the demand is continuously growing. The main characteristics of medical tourism are in the process of continuous development. Geographical proximity is an essential factor, but it is not decisive for the patient's choice. The criteria for acceptable practices in medical tourism, as well as in healthcare in general, are the achievement of excellent treatment, excellent service, and overall a comprehensive tourism product of high quality for consumers. The products offered under the concept of "medical tourism" represent a wide range of practices and procedures in the field of medicine and tourism services. The main criteria that the suppliers of this product meet are the availability and development of appropriate infrastructure and superstructure, including specialized superstructure, qualified staff, excellent technical support and good service.

Abstract:
The concept of smart city is used for development of smart destination with purpose of achieving competitive advantages and enhancing the quality of experience for tourists and quality of life for local citizens. There are wide accepted characteristics of smart tourist destination such as built smart infrastructure, smart technologies application as well as criteria for defining smartness of destination as digitalization, accessibility and mobility. But the main focus of development of smart destination is the creation of smart experience and smart business environment. That stresses the importance of assessment of how tourists and local citizens appreciate their experience. The aim of this paper is to present a model for study and assessment of smart experience of tourists and local citizens in tourist destination. The model is applied in tourist destination Varna. Results of conducted research of tourists and local citizens' view and acceptance, based on their experience, are presented.

Lambermont, Serge, and Niels De Boer. Unsettled Issues Concerning Automated Driving Services in the Smart City Infrastructure. SAE International, December 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.4271/epr2021030.

Full text
Abstract:
Information and communication technology is fundamentally changing the way we live and operate in cities, such as instant access to events, transportation, bookings, payments, and other services. At the same time, three “megatrends” in the automotive industry—self-driving, electrification, and advanced manufacturing technology—are enabling the design of innovative, application-specific vehicles that capitalize on city connectivity. Applications could countless; however, they also need to be safe and securely integrated into a city’s physical and digital infrastructure, and into the overall urban ecosystem. Unsettled Issues Concerning Automated Driving Services in the Smart City Infrastructure examines the current state of the industry, the developments in automated driving and robotics, and how these new urban, self-driving city applications are different. It also analyzes higher level challenges for urban applications. Ultimately, this report includes several options for sharing lessons learned among different cities and their stakeholders.

Abstract:
This document presents an analysis of the state of digital connectivity in Trinidad and Tobago and an action plan to close the existing gap between the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean and those of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. There is also a large gap within the country between urban, densely populated regions and rural, remote, or difficult-to-access regions. Among the impediments to closing the gap are: lack of investment in infrastructure in the most remote areas; limited bandwidth of citizens, institutions and companies that are far from this infrastructure; and lack of competition among internet companies. The government is making efforts in the areas of a universal service fund, spectrum management, and the formulation of the national ICT plan to improve access conditions in the country. Finally, the document estimates the investment gap in the region and in Trinidad and Tobago specifically.
