Abstract: Start-up is the base thing that an individual trying to achieve something new and original. Technology based entrepreneurs are stated as technopreneurs, they are the new trend setting entrepreneurs, they discover and create innovative product and services to the society with the effective usage of science and technology. At present the government of India take further initiatives for the growth and development of indigenous production through startups and also assisting the young entrepreneurs through various schemes for meeting up the challenges with the global competitors. Since 2010 all the developed nation is concentrating to encourage technopreneurs. The government of India verily concentrated for the development and enrichment of start-up environment in recent times. This study attempts to the growth and development of technology start-ups in India and considering the steps taken by the government of India for the welfare of start-ups.

Abstract: A stone at 345 Gray's Inn Road, London. Long thought to be an old milestone the Ordnance Survey map of 1868-73 (https://maps.nls.uk/view/102345964) shows it as a milestone marking 1 mile to Holborn. There is a short article on it here by Ian Visit: https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/blog/2019/03/28/find-the-kings-cross-milestone/ I hoped that photogrammetry might reveal some hard to discern inscription but none is visible to my eye unfortunately. 65 photos taken in June 2019 with a Sony a6000 and processed in Agisoft Metashape.

Abstract: This report provides an architectural view of all the data management components (“data theme”) set up in the ESiWACE2 project. It provides insights into the design of the ESDM interface for supporting data-intensive post-processing, analytics and visualization (PAV) and case studies from the weather and climate change domain. The document addresses the milestone MS5.1 of the ESiWACE2 project. More in detail, starting from background work and the description of the main use cases targeted by the ESDM, a set of technical requirements for the ESDM unified API has been identified, with a strong focus on the new PAV layer for in-flight analytics and visualization. The general ESDM architecture is introduced, highlighting the main components for I/O and processing. The proposed architecture tries to address the identified requirements and provides the guidelines to steer the development stage through the definition of the main architectural components, the relationship among these and some preliminary technical details.

Abstract: The General Conference on Weights and Measures is expected to adopt a fundamental revision of the International System of Units (SI) on the 16th of November 2018. Newly, a set of seven defining constants with fixed values completely sets the system and forms the basis for defining the units. After more than one hundred years of use, the revision will release the last artifact in the SI, the prototype kilogram, from service and replace it with a mass unit based on natural constants.

Abstract: As a pillar of sustainable development, ecology has become an important milestone in research community, especially due to global challenges like climate change. The ecological performance of products can be scientifically conducted with life cycle assessments. In the construction sector, significant amounts of CO₂ emissions are assigned to the energy used for building heating purposes. Therefore, sustainable construction materials for insulating purposes are substantial, whereby aerogels have been explored intensively in the last years due to their low thermal conductivity. Therefore, the WALL-ACE project aims to develop an aerogel-based thermal insulating plaster that would achieve minor thermal conductivities. But as in the early stage of development phases, a lot of information is still missing or not yet accessible, the ecological performance of innovative products bases increasingly on uncertain data that can lead to significant deviations in the results. To be able to predict realistically how meaningful the results are and how viable the developed products may be with regard to their corresponding respective market, these deviations however have to be considered. Therefore, a classification method is presented in this study, which may allow comparing the ecological performance of modern products with already established and competitive materials. In order to achieve this, an alternative calculation method was used that allows computing with lower and upper bounds to consider all possible values without precise data. The life cycle analysis of the considered products was conducted with an interval arithmetic based calculation method. The results lead to the conclusion that the interval solutions describing the possible environmental impacts are so wide that the result usability is limited. Nevertheless, a further optimization in reducing environmental impacts of aerogels seems to be needed to become more competitive in the future.

Abstract: The paper investigates how to implement open access to data in collection institutions and in the DiSSCo research infrastructure. Large-scale digitisation projects generate lots of images, but data transcription often remains backlogged for years. The paper discusses minimum information standards (MIDS) for digital specimens, and tentatively defines 4 hierarchical MIDS levels. Also partially available data can be useful for some purposes and it is recommended that data and media be made openly accessible after minimal delay. The paper then discusses the FAIR concepts and obstacles and restrictions to making data openly accessible. Data policies and data management plans (DMP) of six ICEDIG collection institutions are reviewed. Typically only one or the other exists, depending on how digitisation and related data management is organised. Data policies are found at institution level whereas DMPs seem to belong to project level. The paper comes to the following conclusions: 1) Digital Specimen Objects (DSO) must be findable and accessible at lowest (MIDS-0) level. Data should be deposited in a public research data repository, such as Zenodo. 2) As far as possible, projects must enable third parties to access, mine, exploit, reproduce and disseminate this data by using a copyright waiver such as CC0 or an open access licence such as CC-BY. 3) Exceptions to openness policy must be stated clearly and strictly limited to reasons of national security, legal or regulatory compliance, sensitivity of collection information, and third party rights.

Abstract: <div> <p>Ruy Díaz de Guzmán marked a milestone in the colonial history of the Río de la Plata, being the first in this region of America to narrate with historical and evocative sense the events that occurred in the so-called Giant Province of the Indies. In the work <i>Annals of Discovery, Population and Conquest of the Río de la Plata</i>, one can observe the idealisation of the conqueror archetype, permanently extolling the ‘heroic’ work of the Spanish in the process of conquest, as opposed to the indigenous, always presented as unruly and treacherous. The article seeks to address the way in which Ruy Díaz de Guzmán presents the conquest of the Río de la Plata through the analysis of the discourse exhibited in the aforementioned work.</p> </div>

Abstract: <div> <p>Ernesto De Martino’s theorization and the considerations on the ‘crisis of presence’ represent a milestone in the field of Religious Studies. The crisis reveals itself in the daily events of the human being, such as death. Starting from the methodological frames provided by de Martino’s studies on the lament in ancient world, and the recent attention dedicated to the bodies, this article will analyse one of the most famous episode of <i>kāvya</i> literature as translated by nineteenth-century Italian Indologist Giuseppe Turrini: King Aja’s lament (<i>vilāpa</i>) upon his wife Indumatī, and particularly the stanza of <i>Raghuvaṃa</i> 8.43. The Italian translation reveals some element related to the Western opposition between body and soul, which challenge the original attention paid by Kālidāsa and the ancient Greek literature to the physiological effects produced by suffering.</p> </div>

Abstract: In this work, the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association (CEPA) equation for prediction of hoop stress in a buried pipeline was validated using the Milestone 1 experimental data. The Milestone 1 testing program included a 24-inch outside diameter (OD), 0.25-inch wall thickness (WT) pipe specimen in sand (24-inch Sand); a 12.75-inch OD, 0.5-inch WT pipe specimen in clay (12-inch Packed Clay); and a 24-inch OD, 0.25-inch WT pipe specimen in clay (24-inch Dumped Clay). Two different depths of cover (DOC) values of 2 and 3 feet were used in the testing and the test specimens were crossed by a variety of construction equipment, namely a dump truck, a bulldozer, a front loader, and a vibratory compactor. The testing was conducted at internal pipe pressures of zero, 550 and 750 psig.

Abstract: The reconstruction of the AMOC nudging SST and SSS have proved successful in a perfect model framework in the IPSL coupled climate model. In the historical framework, the only SSS record based purely on observations in 1896-2013 covers only the North and tropical Atlantic (Friedman et al. 2017). This record has also very coarse spatial and temporal resolutions. A strategy to best use these data has been successfully developed in a perfect model framework, giving confidence in the protocol already used as initial conditions for the DCPP experiments with IPSL-CM6 and delivered as a milestone in Blue Action WP2.

Abstract: This is the milestone 2 version of the UNICORE Requirements document. The goal of the EU-funded UNICORE project is to develop a common code-base and toolchain that will enable software developers to rapidly create secure, portable, scalable, high-performance solutions starting from existing applications. The key to this is to compile an application into very light-weight virtual machines - known as unikernels - where there is no traditional operating system, only the specific bits of operating system functionality that the application needs. The resulting unikernels can then be deployed and run on standard high-volume servers or cloud computing infrastructure.
The technology developed by the project will be evaluated in a number of trials, spanning several application domains. This document describes the current state of the art in those application domains from the perspective of the project partners whose businesses encompass those domains. It then goes on to describe the specific target scenarios that will be used to evaluate the technology within each application domain, and how the success of each trial will be judged. Together, these descriptions give an early indication of the requirements for the UNICORE common code-base and toolchain.
The milestone 3 version of this document will add: descriptions of use cases for the UNICORE tools; technical requirements for the Unikernel core (the common code-base); technical requirements for the UNICORE toolchain; conclusions.

Abstract: This article presents the Bakhtin's notion of Dialogism as a tool used to identification/interpretation of possible contents refracted in musical works. To this end, a dialogical analysis was realized of the LP Quarteto Novo (1967), which is considered a milestone in the history of Brazilian instrumental music, aiming to point out possible refracted contents in the compositional constructions and style of this LP. This reflection, based on the Bakhtin's theory, allows us to ascertain the influence of the various fields of human activity on musical works. This is a cut from the master's dissertation in progress of the author.
