Quality and Assimilation of Radar Data for NWP
- Pages: 38
- Author(s): P.P. Alberoni, V. Ducrocq, G. Gregoric et al.
- ISBN/ISSN: 92-894-4842-3
Radar date have eciting potential for improving forecasts from operational numerical weather prediction (NWP) models in Europe. The COST Action 717 entitled ‘Use of radar observations in hydrological and NWP models’ offers a framework in which European radar and NWP scientists, along with those from the hydrological community, can work together to realise this potential. This review by members of WG3 seeks to inform the radar and NWP communities about each other’s disciplines and provide an accessible introduction to the literature for those working at the intersection of these fields.
Intelligent Integrated Media Communication Techniques

The intention of this book is to discuss methods and techniques required for the third generation of mobile multimedia terminals and trends for the future generation services. It originates from the COST Action 254 and 276 and provides an insight into selected research activities deployed within this cooperation framework
Holzforschung Special Issue on Wood Machining
- Pages: 139
- Publisher(s): Walter De Gruyter
- http://www.degruyter.de/journals/holz/detailEn.cfm
- ISBN/ISSN: 0018-3830
This issue of Holzforschung contains a collection of papers which summarizes the scientific activities of COST Action E35. The objective of this Action was to increase the understanding of wood machining in relation to microstructural and micromechanics aspects of wood, fracture mechanics processes associated with separation of material during cutting and machined surface characterization in relation to quality.
The contributions in this issue of the journal provide a state-of-the-art synthesis of the outcomes of 4 years of highly integrated interdisciplinary work. As well as adding new and enhanced knowledge of the relationships between the behaviour of wood at several structural scales and machining, the papers identify those areas where questions remain unanswered. This should stimulate additional multi-disciplinary research efforts, basic and applied, to achieve the level of understanding that the subject deserves.
Abatement Measures for the Freight Transport Sector
- Pages: 174
- Author(s): Eric Cornelis and Christophe Rezet
- Publisher(s): Presses Universitaires de Namur
- ISBN/ISSN: 978-2-87037-605-8
The main objective of the Action is to develop a more rigorous understanding of the conditions under which the process of growing unsustainable transport demand could be reversed, by changing travelers’, shippers’ and carriers’ behavior.
The Working Group 1 is devoted to freight transport and energy consumption.
This book covers the communications presented during a meeting held in Madrid in May 2007 and focusing on abatement measueres for the freight transport sectors.
ICT Capabilities in action: what people do, user aspects of ICTs
- Pages: 248
- Author(s): L. Klamer, E. Mante-Meijer, J. Heres et al
- Publisher(s): OPOCE
- ISBN/ISSN: 92-898-0011-9
- EUR: 21637
COST Action 269 belongs to the domain Telecommunications and Information Science and Technology. Its main objectives were to study and analyse ICT usage and users, with emphasis on communication, in order to increase knowledge on how and why a person incorporates or rejects ICT products and services into his/her daily life. COST Action 269 offered a unique opportunity for European scientists, without regard to any particular discipline, to participate in open research of user aspects of ICTs. Disciplined ranging from technology to sociology were represented.
