Abstract:
In bioreactor, it often monitors some procedure parameters such as temperature, pH , and dissolved oxygen values to monitor fermentation process, but these parameters may be instability and delayed. Calorimetry hasn’t distinctiveness, virulence and doesn’t be sensitive to electrochemistry. So it can be used in some kind of culture fluid, even so it can be used in muddy fluid that photometers can’t be used in. Relative to other monitoring ways, calorimetry’s response time is short, so calorimetry is well suited to monitor bioprocesses on line. Calorimetry only needs normal standardize monitoring units, and this normal standardize monitoring units is be widely used in industry. Calorimetry as a simple alternative is beginning to be used in monitor bio-fermentation process.

Abstract:
Background Clinical alarm system safety is a national patient safety goal in the United States. Physiologic monitors are associated with the highest number of device alarms and alarm-related deaths. However, research involving nurses’ use of physiologic monitors is rare. Hence, the identification of critical usability issues for monitors, especially those related to patient safety, is a nursing imperative. Objective This study examined nurses’ usability of physiologic monitors in intensive care units with respect to the effectiveness and efficiency of monitor use. Methods In total, 30 nurses from 4 adult intensive care units completed 40 tasks in a simulation environment. The tasks were common monitoring tasks that were crucial for appropriate monitoring and safe alarm management across four categories of competencies: admitting, transferring, and discharging patients using the monitors (7 tasks); managing measurements and monitor settings (23 tasks); performing electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis (7 tasks); and troubleshooting alarm conditions (3 tasks). The nurse-monitor interaction was video-recorded. The principal investigator and two expert intensive care units nurse educators identified, classified, and validated task success (effectiveness) and the time of task completion (efficiency). Results Among the 40 tasks, only 2 (5%) were successfully completed by all the nurses. At least 1-27 (3%-90%) nurses abandoned or did not correctly perform 38 tasks. The task with the shortest completion time was “take monitor out of standby” (mean 0:02, SD 0:01 min:s), whereas the task “record a 25 mm/s ECG strip of any of the ECG leads” had the longest completion time (mean 1:14, SD 0:32 min:s). The total time to complete 37 navigation-related tasks ranged from a minimum of 3 min 57 s to a maximum of 32 min 42 s. Regression analysis showed that it took 6 s per click or step to successfully complete a task. To understand the nurses’ thought processes during monitor navigation, the authors analyzed the paths of the 2 tasks with the lowest successful completion rates, where only 13% (4/30) of the nurses correctly completed these 2 tasks. Although 30% (9/30) of the nurses accessed the correct screen first for task 1 and task 2, they could not find their way easily from there to successfully complete the 2 tasks. Conclusions Usability testing of physiologic monitors revealed major ineffectiveness and inefficiencies in the current nurse-monitor interactions. The results indicate the potential for safety and productivity issues in completing routine tasks. Training on monitor use should include critical monitoring functions that are necessary for safe, effective, efficient, and appropriate monitoring to include knowledge of the shortest navigation path. It is imperative that vendors’ future monitor designs mimic clinicians’ thought processes for successful, safe, and efficient monitor navigation.

Abstract:
Background Reliance on physiological monitors to continuously “watch” patients and to alert the nurse when a serious rhythm problem occurs is standard practice on monitored units. Alarms are intended to alert clinicians to deviations from a predetermined “normal” status. However, alarm fatigue may occur when the sheer number of monitor alarms overwhelms clinicians, possibly leading to alarms being disabled, silenced, or ignored. Purpose Excessive numbers of monitor alarms and fear that nurses have become desensitized to these alarms was the impetus for a unit-based quality improvement project. Methods Small tests of change to improve alarm management were conducted on a medical progressive care unit. The types and frequency of monitor alarms in the unit were assessed. Nurses were trained to individualize patients’ alarm parameter limits and levels. Monitor software was modified to promote audibility of critical alarms. Results Critical monitor alarms were reduced 43% from baseline data. The reduction of alarms could be attributed to adjustment of monitor alarm defaults, careful assessment and customization of monitor alarm parameter limits and levels, and implementation of an interdisciplinary monitor policy. Discussion Although alarms are important and sometimes life-saving, they can compromise patients’ safety if ignored. This unit-based quality improvement initiative was beneficial as a starting point for revamping alarm management throughout the institution.

Abstract:
AbstractThe objective of this study was to evaluate the delivery efficiency of intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with a non-zero collimator rotation approach compared to conventional planning IMRT in the management of prostate carcinoma. Inverse plans, created using conventional collimator angle 0° (CA0) for eight prostate patients, were compared to plans using collimator angle 70° (CA70) for all fields and also with plans utilizing an automatic collimator angle optimization tool (CAopt) for each field. Results demonstrate that IMRT plans created with rotational collimator techniques can produce comparable dose distributions to standard CA0 plans. The rotational collimator approach significantly reduced the total number of monitor units (MU) by 6% (p value = 0.027) and 9% (p value = 0.003) for CA70 and CAopt, respectively. The mean monitor units for CA0, CA70 and CAopt were 635 ± 107 MU, 597 ± 96 MU and 587 ± 104 MU, respectively. The mean peripheral dose was significantly increased with CA70 against CA0 (p value < 0.001) despite reduced monitor units. Collimator optimization resulted in reduction in monitor units and peripheral dose. The number of monitor units are reduced with the rotational collimator approach, which results in reduced delivery time. However, we conclude that peripheral dose should be analyzed when assessing monitor unit differences in IMRT plans.

Abstract:
Wide Area Measurements (WAMs) have been widely used in the energy management system (EMS) of power system for monitoring, operation and control. In recent years, the advent of synchronized Phasor Measurements Unit (PMU) has added another dimension to the field of wide-area measurement. However, the high cost of the PMU, which includes the manufacture and deployment fee, is a hurdle to the wide use of the PMU in power systems. Unlike traditional PMUs, the frequency monitoring network (FNET) developed by the Virginia Tech Power IT lab is an Internetâ based, GPSâ synchronized, wide-area frequency monitoring network deployed at the distribution level, providing a low-cost and easily deployable WAMs solution. In this dissertation, the research work can be categorized into two parts: FNET Design and Situation Awareness Algorithm Development.

Abstract:
A verificação de forma independente do cálculo de dose e de unidades monitoras num plano de tratamento de IMRT é um passo importante nos procedimentos de garantia de qualidade da técnica em questão. Atualmente este verificação é baseada apenas em medidas experimentais demoradas e trabalhosas. Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido uma metodologia de cálculo de unidades monitoras de forma independente como uma nova ferramenta para garantir a qualidade e exatidão dos tratamentos de IMRT. Os valores encontrados se aproximam bastante dos valores calculados pelo sistema de planejamento utilizado, de forma que o algoritmo de cálculo desenvolvido apresentou uma concordância dentro de ± 1,8 % para uma geometria simples. Após diversos testes e com os níveis de ação devidamente estabelecidos, a verificação independente da unidade monitora para planos de tratamento de IMRT se tornará uma ferramenta efetiva e eficiente no controle de qualidade que ajuda a identificar e reduzir possíveis erros de tratamento em radioterapia. Como contribuição original deste trabalho, assegura-se aos serviços de Radioterapia a utilização da metodologia desenvolvida como ferramenta de controle de qualidade em tratamentos com IMRT. Em especial aos serviços que não dispõem de recursos econômicos para adquirirem softwares comercialmente disponíveis para o cálculo independente da unidade monitora.
Independent verification of dose calculations and monitor units settings of IMRT treatment plans is an important step in the quality assurance procedure for IMRT technique. At present, the verification is mainly based on experimental measurements, which are time consuming and laborious. In this work an independent methodology of monitor units calculation was developed as a new tool for IMRT treatments quality and precision assurance. The values found are near those calculated by the treatment planning system used, in a manner that the calculation algorithm demonstrated ± 1,8 % concordance in a simple geometry with the system. After several tests and the levels of action well established, the independent monitor units verification for IMRT treatment plans will become an effective and efficient tool in quality assurance, helping identification and the reduction of possible mistakes in radiotherapy treatments. To radiotherapy services is assured the use of the developed methodology as a tool of quality control in IMRT treatments as an original contribution of this work, specially those that do not dispose financial resources to acquire commercially available independent monitor unit calculus software.

Resumo: A medição da pressão arterial em setores de emergência e cuidados intensivos é um procedimento utilizado para avaliar com rapidez a condição do paciente e direcionar a conduta terapêutica. Devido aos cuidados peculiares existentes na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva, a monitorização hemodinâmica desses pacientes é realizada por monitores automáticos multiparamétricos o que torna esse procedimento mais fácil e rápido. Esse tipo de monitorização consiste no controle de parâmetros como eletrocardiograma, pressão arterial (direta ou indireta), saturação de oxigênio, frequência cardíaca, temperatura, frequência respiratória, capnografia e débito cardíaco. Para garantir a precisão e o desempenho desses aparelhos automáticos, estes devem passar por testes rigorosos a fim de validá-los para seu uso clinico. Assim torna-se necessário aferir sua confiabilidade usando protocolos adequados, reconhecidos por sociedades cientificas. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a confiabilidade do monitor multiparamétrico Dixtal® DX 2020 na medida da pressão arterial em adultos de acordo com o Protocolo Internacional, proposto pela European Society of Hypertension (ESH). Para o desenvolvimento desse estudo foram realizadas medidas de pressão arterial em 33 sujeitos, com uso do esfigmomanômetro de coluna de mercúrio, da marca Unitec e o aparelho automático Dixtal® DX 2020 com número de série 81303876. Nove medidas sequenciais foram realizadas no braço, alternando entre o esfigmomanômetro de mercúrio e o automático em teste, conforme Protocolo Internacional, além da obtenção do eletrocardiograma. O protocolo estabelece a necessidade de atender duas exigências. Na primeira exigência o aparelho foi reprovado na PAS em todas as faixas. Das 99 diferenças obtidas, apenas 43 se situaram na faixa de 0 a 5 mmHg (de 73 exigidas), 69 medidas na faixa de 0 a 10 mmHg (de 87 exigidas) e 81 entre 0 e 15 mmHg (de 96 exigidas). Na PAD também foi reprovado em todas as faixas, obtendo 29 diferenças entre 0 e 5 mmHg, 56 entre 0 e 10 mmHg e 71 entre 0 e 15 mmHg, sendo exigidas 65, 81 e 93, respectivamente. Na segunda exigência pelo menos 24 sujeitos deveriam ter duas de suas três comparações na faixa de 0 a 5 mmHg, o que aconteceu somente com 16 sujeitos na sistólica e 9 na diastólica. Além disso, no máximo três poderiam ter todas suas comparações acima de 5 mmHg e isso aconteceu com 10 sujeitos na sistólica e 17 na diastólica. O aparelho não atendeu os critérios estabelecidos para a pressão sistólica (PAS) e pressão diastólica (PAD) em nenhuma das duas exigências, não sendo recomendado para o uso clínico de acordo com este protocolo. Cuidados com a validação dos aparelhos deveriam ocorrer com maior frequência no sentido de garantir às pessoas em cuidados intensivos valores fidedignos. É importante ressaltar que este estudo refere-se especificamente ao módulo de verificação da PA do monitor em estudo, não sendo possível tirar a mesma conclusão para suas outras funções
Abstract: The measurement of blood pressure in emergency departments and intensive care is a procedure used to quickly assess the patient's condition and direct the therapeutic approach. Due to the peculiar care existing in the intensive care unit, hemodynamic monitoring of patients is performed by automated multiparameter monitors which makes this procedure easier and faster. This type of monitoring controls parameters such as electrocardiogram, blood pressure (direct or indirect), oxygen saturation, heart rate, temperature, respiratory rate, capnography and cardiac output. To ensure accuracy and performance of these automated devices, they must undergo rigorous testing to validate them for clinical use. So it becomes necessary to assess its reliability using appropriate protocols, recognized by scientific societies. This study aims to evaluate the reliability of the multiparameter monitor Dixtal® DX 2020 on blood pressure determination in adults according to the International Protocol, proposed by the European Society of Hypertension (ESH). For the development of this study blood pressure was measured in 33 subjects, using a Unitec® mercury sphygmomanometer, and the automatic drive Dixtal® DX 2020, serial number 81303876. Nine sequential measurements were performed in the arm, alternating between the mercury sphygmomanometer and the automatic unit in test, as determined by the International Protocol, and the electrocardiogram. The protocol establishes the need to meet two requirements. In the first requirement, the device failed SBP measurements in all ranges. Among the 99 obtained differences, only 43 were located in the range 0-5 mm Hg (73 required), 69 in the range 0-10 mm Hg (87 required) and 81 between 0 and 15 mmHg (96 required). Regarding DBP, the device also failed in all ranges, obtaining 29 differences between 0 and 5 mmHg, 56 from 0 to 10 and 71 between 0 and 15 mmHg( 65, 81 and 93 required respectively). To pass in the second requirement at least 24 subjects should have two of their three comparisons in the range 0-5 mmHg, which happened with only 16 subjects in systolic and 9 in diastolic. Furthermore, at most three could have all their comparisons over 5 mmHg and this happened to 10 subjects in the systolic and 17 diastolic. The unit did not meet the criteria for systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in any of the two requirements and it is not recommended for clinical use in accordance with this protocol. Importantly, this study specifically refers to the BP scanning module of the monitor in study, it is not possible to draw the same conclusion for its other functions

Abstract:
With the increased rate of overweight and obese youth in the United States many people began looking for ways to increase youth exercise quality and habits; one such way was by using an external distraction during exercise to increase personal motives toward exercise. This study involved 81 high school aged students enrolled in a required physical education class. Students rode an indoor cycling bike for 20 minutes while wearing a heart rate monitor. They were told to maintain a heart rate between their 70 and 79% maximum heart rate. Every 5 minutes students were asked to rate how hard they thought they were working, using a modified rating of perceived exertion scale, and how much they were enjoying the activity. At the end of each day, students were asked if they would continue to cycle if given the option. The first two days had no distraction, days 3 and 4 had class selected music playing, and days 5 and 6 had a class selected movie showing at the front of the room. There is no significant difference in heart rate or rating of perceived exertion between no distraction and adding music, but when a movie is played, both heart rate and rating of perceived exertion decrease significantly. However, a similar decrease in heart rate and rating of perceived exertion is also seen in the control group on the same days of data collection. Including a distraction while exercising has no significant effect on enjoyment of the activity or intention to persist in the activity. Females have significantly higher intrinsic motivation levels throughout the course of data collection, and males' intrinsic motivation significantly declines with each progressive condition. As the decline in heart rate and rating of perceived exertion is seen in both control and treatment groups the decline is possibly influenced by unaccounted for factors such as hard bike seats, boredom, or teacher pedagogy. These factors could potentially account for the decrease in intrinsic motivation during the last two days of data collection.

Abstract:
This study investigated the delivery of electron arc treatment with a trapezoidal aperture. The aim of the investigation is to reduce the nonuniformity of the dose distribution, which is caused by the variation of the patient contour from superior to inferior. The characteristics of static electron beam were first investigated. Then a measurement-based algorithm was developed and implemented as a computer program called EarcMU to calculate the monitor units required for delivering the prescribed dose with a trapezoidal aperture. The central axis percentage depth dose was found to be independent of source-to-surface distance (SSD) and the width of the aperture. The inplane profiles of a trapezoidal aperture show that the dose decreases longitudinally from the wide to the narrow end of the trapezoidal aperture. The EarcMU program was verified using two cylindrical water phantoms. The measured dose and the dose calculated by the program agreed within 2.1% in the typical clinical conditions. A simple method was also proposed for determining the trapezoidal aperture for an individual patient. Under the same conditions, the trapezoidal apertures calculated by this method along with the open aperture were used to deliver treatments to several conical phantoms. Significant improvement in the uniformity of dose distribution was observed. On average, the flatness index of the longitudinal dose distribution from superior to inferior decreases dramatically from 8% for open aperture down to 0.58% for trapezoidal aperture. The results are clinically significant, indicating that delivering the electron arc treatment using a trapezoidal aperture can bring more uniform dose to the patient regardless of the change of patient contour from superior to inferior.

Abstract:
Synthetic Vision Systems (SVS) provide an aircraft pilot with a virtual 3-D image of surrounding terrain which is generated from a digital elevation model stored in an onboard database. SVS improves the pilot's situational awareness at night and in inclement weather, thus reducing the chance of accidents such as controlled flight into terrain. A terrain database integrity monitor is needed to verify the accuracy of the displayed image due to potential database and navigational system errors. Previous research has used existing aircraft sensors to compare the real terrain position with the predicted position. We propose an improvement to one of these models by leveraging the stream computing capabilities of commercial graphics hardware. "Brook for GPUs," a system for implementing stream computing applications on programmable graphics processors, is used to execute a streaming ray-casting algorithm that correctly simulates the beam characteristics of a radar altimeter during all phases of flight.

The purpose of lifeboats being onboard vessels is to insure the safety and security of the crew in disastrous situations, but in the routinely release and retrieval of lifeboat drills, accidents caused by mechanical reasons have constantly been happening, resulting in tremendous casualties over time. This thesis uses initiative detection of whether the release hook is in proper place or not to solve the common problem of accidentally disengagements when under load for open lever type broadside lifeboats. There have been over 70 different types of lifeboat release hooks developed until now, each differing greatly from one another. This study analyzes the information of these different release hooks and categorizes them. In regard to open lever type broadside lifeboats, the motorizing system in principle, uses 3 Inductive Proximity Sensor sets which are installed in the fore, aft lifeboat release hook and the hydrostatic release device. The motorizing system utilizes light panels to show whether current conditions are safe or not, if the main light signal displays a green light, then this means that the release hook(s) is (are) in correct positions, and if the light signal displays a red light, then this means that the lifeboat may be in contact with the water. When the release hook leaves the water and is not in the proper locked position, then flashing red lights and alarm (audio) signals will be set off; After analysis for enclosed lever type lifeboats, this monitoring system cannot currently be installed for them. But since the LSA Code states that: the crew members should be able to directly observe the activities of release hook systems/components in lifeboats, the enclosed lever type is of question of whether it is in compliance with this requirement, thus providing not much of a concern in this thesis. For free fall lifeboat types, this study shows that the monitoring system of this thesis can be directly used. This thesis hopes to change current lifeboat accidental prevention measures for the world, and leap out of traditional thinking. To not only use methods of improving the life boat structure itself or additional add-on locks to prevent disasters, but to use electronic monitors to solve this problem, achieving safety and security of the life and property of the crew. The thesis results of this thesis and such concepts can be provided for the International Maritime Organization, surveyor associations, manufacturers, and other lifeboat related business to improve the safety of lifeboats.

Abstract:
Electromyography is critical for the diagnosis of motor neuron disease, as its findings exclude mimicking disorders, and confirm signs of widespread motor unit loss and reinnervation. In chronic conditions the slow disease course allows giant, stable motor unit potentials to appear. In contrast, in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the rapid degenerative process is characterized by signs of denervation and unstable motor unit potentials, where motor units become dysfunctional before having time to sustain very large reinnervated motor unit potentials. Fasciculation potentials are observed in both conditions. In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fasciculation potentials are important supporting electrodiagnostic evidence, permitting earlier diagnosis. Many methods have been developed to quantify and monitor the lower motor neuron pool, but few have been used in clinical trials. Their role as tools to follow interventions or to interpret pathogenesis remains incompletely explored. Electromyography is a sensitive and reliable test in the diagnosis and assessment of motor neuron diseases.

Abstract:
AbstractThe premise of this paper is that compliance with Trustworthy AI governance best practices and regulatory frameworks is an inherently fragmented process spanning across diverse organizational units, external stakeholders, and systems of record, resulting in process uncertainties and in compliance gaps that may expose organizations to reputational and regulatory risks. Moreover, there are complexities associated with meeting the specific dimensions of Trustworthy AI best practices such as data governance, conformance testing, quality assurance of AI model behaviors, transparency, accountability, and confidentiality requirements. These processes involve multiple steps, hand-offs, re-works, and human-in-the-loop oversight. In this paper, we demonstrate that process mining can provide a useful framework for gaining fact-based visibility to AI compliance process execution, surfacing compliance bottlenecks, and providing for an automated approach to analyze, remediate and monitor uncertainty in AI regulatory compliance processes.

Abstract:
AbstractAbsenteeism of government frontline health workers can prevent access to primary care, including outpatient care, pre- and postnatal care, deliveries, and vaccinations. As rates of absenteeism tend to be higher in lower-income areas, this issue has the potential to exacerbate the socioeconomic divide. Specifically in Punjab, Pakistan, government doctors posted to rural health clinics, called Basic Health Units (BHUs), were found to be absent two-thirds of the time. Health inspectors are employed to visit BHUs at least once a month to collect data from a paper-based register located at each BHU and ensure doctors are present. However, absenteeism of the government inspectors causes this system to break down. This case study follows the implementation of the “Monitoring the Monitors” program, which aimed to replace the paper-based record-keeping system with an app-based system that feeds an online dashboard system (for real-time aggregation and presentation of data). Conducting a large-scale randomized controlled trial, inspection rates increased from 25.5% to 51.9% after 6 months. After a year of operation, inspection rates were 33.8% in the treatment districts and 23.5% in control districts. An A/B test was used to measure the effect of a simple flagging system that notified senior health officials when health workers were absent during an inspection and showed an increase in doctor attendance from 23.6% to 41.3%. The government eventually adopted this system (rebranded as HealthWatch), and it is now one of the many apps being used to monitor frontline service providers.

Abstract:
AbstractGreen building technologies and design-correlated choices may significantly contribute to supporting the transition toward net energy flows in the built environment. Nevertheless, large discrepancies are underlined between standard simulated and monitored building behaviours requiring approaches able to simply correlate real building behaviours and simulated ones to further support coherent certification and/or optimization. The paper focusses on the application of a semi-automatic methodology to compare and evaluate thermal behaviours of buildings considering monitored and simulated data. The approach is based on a new Python tool developed by the authors, able to manage EnergyPlus inputs and perform multi-source KPIs calculations. The mentioned tool is used here to support semi-automatic model verifications of real weather data by optimizing model parameters to fit monitored behaviours. The approach is applied in this chapter to two demo buildings, a municipality school and a residential unit, located in the Turin metropolitan area of Piedmont, in Northwest Italy.

Abstract:
Blood products and their derivatives are perishable commodities that require an efficient inventory management to ensure both a low wastage rate and a high product availability rate. To optimize blood product inventory, blood transfusion services need to reduce wastage by avoiding outdates and improve availability of different blood products. We used advance visualization techniques to design and develop a highly interactive real-time web-based dashboard to monitor the blood product inventory and the on-going blood unit transactions in near-real-time based on analysis of transactional data. Blood transfusion staff use the dashboard to locate units with specific characteristics, investigate the lifecycle of the units, and efficiently transfer units between facilities to minimize outdates.

Abstract:
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant units 1, 2, and 3 had serious damages due to the huge earthquake and tsunami which occurred on March 11th 2011. Pressure transients in the reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) of the units 1, 2, and 3 were analyzed with the severe accident analysis code, SAMPSON for a few days from the scram until occurrence of depressurization. Since preliminary analysis results with the original SAMPSON showed difference from the measured data, the following phenomena were newly considered in the current analyses. For unit 1: Damage of a source range monitor, which is one of in-core monitors. For unit 2: Part load operation of the reactor core isolation cooling system. For unit 3: Part load operation of the high pressure coolant injection system. The calculation results showed fairly good agreements with the measured pressure data and showed RPV bottom damage for all the units resulting in falling of debris in the core region into the pedestal of the drywell.

Abstract:
In the present work we carried out a comparative analysis of independent methods of verification of the number of monitor units of the radiation therapy irradiation plan. In the course of the work, verifications were carried out using theoretical calculations for irradiation fields with different geometric parameters and with the help of computer systems for radiation planning. Based on the data obtained, it is shown that it is impossible to expect an exact or almost exact coincidence of the results of these two calculations, since the theoretical verification is performed using simpler geometric models and calculation algorithms than the calculation using a computer planning system. It was also found that for the same rectangular field for different accelerators in isocentric conditions, with the same emission energy and the same SSD, the amount of ME is approximately equal and does not exceed 3%.

Abstract:
The establishment of the regional level in Slovakia was one of the conditions for our accession to the European Union. Its real creation took place in the Slovak Republic two years before the accession to the European Community. Despite the efforts of the Cohesion Policy of the European Union to reduce regional disparities across the member states of the EU, at the regional level of the Slovak Republic, it is possible to constantly monitor differences in the development of the regions. Their elimination is the main objective of Slovak regional policy. The representatives of the national level use the European Union’s support policy to gradually reduce or eliminate the regional disparities. This policy offers the possibility of drawing financial resources from several funds. The indicator of differences in regional development is the regional gross domestic product per capita. By monitoring and analysing its evolution over several years, it is possible to see whether disparities at the regional level are being reduced or, on the contrary, are deepening. In the following article, to determine the current state of regional differences, we present the development of regional disparities of Slovak higher territorial units in 2009-2018 through monitored data on regional gross domestic product per capita at current prices.

Full text
Abstract:
Ammonia waste removal in recirculating aquaculture systems is typically accomplished via the action of nitrifying bacteria in specially designed biofilters that oxidize ammonia to produce nitrate. In the majority of these systems nitrate is discharged to the environment through frequent water exchanges. As environmental considerations have made it necessary to eliminate nitrate release, new strategies for nitrate consumption are being developed. In the funding period we showed that ammonia removal from wastewater could take place by an anaerobic ammonia oxidation process carried out by bacterial Planctomycetessp. Referred to as “anammox”, this process occurs in the absence of an organic source and in the presence of nitrite (or nitrate) as an electron acceptor as follows: NH₃ + HNO₂ -> N₂ + 2H₂O. Annamox has been estimated to result in savings of up to 90% of the costs associated with was wastewater treatment plants. Our objective was to study the applicability of the anammox process in a variety of recirculating aquaculture systems to determine optimal conditions necessary for efficient ammonia waste removal. Both seawater and freshwater systems operated with either conventional aerobic treatment of ammonia to nitrate (USA) or, in addition, denitrifying biofilters as well as anaerobic digestion of sludge (Israel) were tested. Molecular tools were used to screen and monitor different treatment compartments for the presence of Planctomycetes. Optimal conditions for the enrichment of the anammox bacteria were tested using laboratory scale biofilters as well as a semi-commercial system. Enrichment studies resulted in the isolation of some unique heterotrophic bacteria capable of plasmid-mediated autotrophic growth in the presence of ammonia and nitrite. Our studies have not only demonstrated the presence and viability of Planctomycetes spp. in recirculating marine and freshwater systems biofilter units but also demonstrated the applicability of the anammox process in these systems. Using our results we have developed treatment schemes that have allowed for optimizing the anammox process and applying it to recirculating systems.

Colomb, Claire, and Tatiana Moreira de Souza. Regulating Short-Term Rentals: Platform-based property rentals in European cities: the policy debates. Property Research Trust, May 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.52915/kkkd3578.

Full text
Abstract:
Short-term rentals mediated by digital platforms have positive and negative impacts that are unevenly distributed among socio-economic groups and places. Detrimental impacts on the housing market and quality of life of long-term residents have been particular contentious in some cities. • In the 12 cities studied in the report (Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Brussels, Lisbon, London, Madrid, Milan, Paris, Prague, Rome and Vienna), city governments have responded differently to the growth of short-term rentals. • The emerging local regulations of short-term rentals take multiple forms and exhibit various degrees of stringency, ranging from rare cases of laissez-faire to a few cases of partial prohibition or strict quantitative control. Most city governments have sought to find a middle-ground approach that differentiates between the professional rental of whole units and the occasional rental of one’s home/ primary residence. • The regulation of short-term rentals is contentious and highly politicised. Six broad categories of interest groups and non-state actors actively participate in the debates with contrasting positions: advocates of the ‘sharing’ or ‘collaborative’ economy; corporate platforms; professional organisatons of short-term rental operators; new associations of hosts or ‘home-sharers’; the hotel and hospitality industry; and residents’ associations/citizens’ movements. • All city governments face difficulties in implementing and enforcing the regulations, due to a lack of sufficient resources and to the absence of accurate and comprehensive data on individual hosts. That data is held by corporate platforms, which have generally not accepted to release it (with a few exceptions) nor to monitor the content of their listings against local rules. • The relationships between platforms and city governments have oscillated between collaboration and conflict. Effective implementation is impossible without the cooperation of platforms. • In the context of the European Union, the debate has taken a supranational dimension, as two pieces of EU law frame the possibility — and acceptable forms — of regulation of online platforms and of short-term rentals in EU member states: the 2000 E-Commerce Directive and the 2006 Services Directive. • For regulation to be effective, the EU legal framework should be revised to ensure platform account- ability and data disclosure. This would allow city (and other ti ers of) governments to effectively enforce the regulations that they deem appropriate. • Besides, national and regional governments, who often control the legislative framework that defines particular types of short-term rentals, need to give local governments the necessary tools to be able to exercise their ‘right to regulate’ in the name of public interest objectives.
