Abstract:
Improving the sharing rate of public transportation is an important content for the sustainable development of urban transportation. However, bus bunching, a common phenomenon during transit operation, makes negative effects on reliability and service level of the bus system. In most urban centers in China, many bus lines usually serve in a corridor. Different buses may interact with each other in the corridor, which may aggravate the bus bunching. However, previous studies on bus bunching focused on single bus service. In addition, with the popularization of bus data acquisition and the maturity of data processing methods, the accuracy of bus bunching research meets more opportunities. In this paper, we proposed a holding strategy based on two-bus cooperative control. A simulation was carried out after preliminarily processing and analyzing the bus operation data of Foshan, Guangdong City. In the simulation, we compared the performance of three different scenarios, which are before control strategy, under the strategy for a single bus line and under the coordinated strategy for multiple bus lines. We contrastively analyze the results of the two strategies from different aspects. The results show that in aspects, such as holding a frequency, holding time, the total running time and the influence on the other bus line, the cooperative holding strategy manifests better. It illustrates that it is meaningful to do such a research on the effect of corridor service on bus bunching and add this effect into traditional holding strategy to build a multi-bus cooperative control strategy. The results have important theoretical significance for enriching and completing existing theory and methods of transit system and practical value for improving the service level and attractiveness of buses, increasing the share rate of public transportation, and thus, promoting the sustainable development of cities.

Abstract:
This manuscript deals with the situation in which the different agents or buses in a power network have access to local renewable resources and must manage its use in a distributed fashion. The buses distributedly decide the amount of power to be generated using their local renewable power plants, and that to be demanded from the grid. The decisions are made according to the optimization of a cost function that considers both economic and technical factors. The problem is approached resorting to a game-theoretical framework that requires a negotiation process among the neighboring buses. An iterative algorithm is proposed in order to solve this problem, providing existence and convergence conditions under which the buses reach a suitable equilibrium. The algorithm performance is tested in simulations over a modification of the IEEE 14-bus system, in which the lines are modeled as resistances and distributed generation is considered. Simulations on a network of 44 buses are also included to show the scalability of the method.

Abstract:
We propose a design for, and investigate the computational power of a dynamically reconfigurable parallel computer that we call the Reconfigurable Ring of Processors ([Formula: see text], for short). The [Formula: see text] is a ring of identical processing elements (PEs) that are interconnected via a flexible multi-line reconfigurable bus, each of whose lines has one-packet width and can be configured, independently of the other lines, to establish an arbitrary PE-to-PE connection. A novel aspect of our design is a communication protocol we call COMET — for Cooperative MEssage Transmission — which allows PEs of an [Formula: see text] to exchange one-packet messages with latency that is logarithmic in the number of PEs the message passes over in transit. The main contribution of this paper is an algorithm that allows an N-PE, N-line [Formula: see text] to simulate an N-PE hypercube executing a normal algorithm, with slowdown less than 4 log log N, provided that the local state of a hypercube PE can be encoded and transmitted using a single packet. This simulation provides a rich class of efficient algorithms for the [Formula: see text], including algorithms for matrix multiplication, sorting, and the Fast Fourer Transform (often using fewer than N buslines). The resulting algorithms for the [Formula: see text] are often within a small constant factor of optimal.

Abstract:
Metros are usually built and added on the basis of a completed bus network in Chinese cities. After the metro construction, it is faced with the problem of how to adjust and optimize the original bus lines based on the new metro system. This research mainly proposes a bus line optimization method based on bus and metro integration. In the consideration of the geographical space, the cooperation and competition relationship between bus and metro lines is qualitatively introduced according to the geographical location and service range of metro (800 m radius) and bus (500 m radius) stations. The competition and cooperation indexes are applied to define the co-opetition relationship between bus and metro lines. The bus line optimization model is constructed based on the co-opetition coefficient and Changsha Metro Line Number 2 is chosen as a case study to verify the optimization model. The results show that the positive competition, efficient cooperation, and travel efficiency between metro and bus has been significantly enhanced after optimization. Moreover, this paper provides a reasonable reference for public transport network planning and resource allocation.

Abstract:
3019 Background: Mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) predict sensitivity to small molecule inhibitors of EGFR such as gefitinib and erlotinib. Importantly, mutant EGFR selectively activates Akt and STAT pathways that are important in NSCLC cell survival. SRC-family kinases can cooperate with receptor tyrosine kinases to signal through downstream molecules such as PI3K/PTEN/Akt and STATs. Despite the importance of EGFR signaling in lung cancer, the known cooperation between EGFR and SRC proteins, and evidence of elevated SRC activity in human lung cancers, the effect of SRC inhibition on cell fate is unknown. Methods: We evaluated the anti-tumor efficacy of a novel orally bioavailable SRC-ABL inhibitor dasatinib (BMS-354825) in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines with defined EGFR status including wildtype EGFR and mutant EGFR sensitive to gefitinib. Western blotting was used to evaluate the effect of dasatinib on downstream signaling pathways and in vitro assays were used to evaluate the effect cell cycle, apoptosis, and cell invasion. Results: Our results show that cell fate (death versus growth arrest) in lung cancer cells exposed to a SRC inhibitor is dependent on EGFR status. Dasatinib reduces mutant EGFR lung cancer cell viability through the induction of apoptosis and G1 cell cycle arrest while having no significant apoptotic effect on cell lines with wildtype EGFR. The induction of apoptosis in EGFR mutant cell lines corresponds to downregulation of phosphorylated Akt and Stat3 survival proteins. In cell lines without EGFR mutation, dasatinib induces a G1 cell cycle arrest with associated changes in cyclin D and p27 proteins as well as inhibits activated FAK and prevents tumor cell invasion. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that novel SRC inhibitors could be effective therapy for patients with lung cancers through disruption of cell growth, survival and tumor invasion. Our results suggest EGFR status is critical in deciding cell fate in response to SRC inhibition. [Table: see text]

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to identify upland rice genotypes with high stability and adaptability by the GGE biplot method based on the predicted genotypic and phenotypic values. Of the 20 genotypes evaluated, 14 were lines developed by the cooperative program for rice improvement of Minas Gerais and six were controls. The GGE biplot analysis showed that cultivar BRS Pepita and MG1097 were closest to the ideal genotype. In the comparison of the fixed with the random models (% G + GE, prediction error sum of squares and correlation), it was observed that the use of phenotypic means in all comparative parameters indicated a lower predictive potential under simulated imbalance than the use of predicted genotypic values. The conclusion was drawn that BRS Pepita and MG1097 are ideal genotypes for southern Minas Gerais and that the predictive power of the phenotypic means underlying the study of stability and adaptability is lower than of genotypic means.

Abstract:
The evolving nature of warfare has been changing with cybersecurity and the use of advanced biotechnology in each aspect of the society is expanding and overlapping with the cyberworld. This intersection, which has been described as “biocybersecurity” (BCS), can become a major front of the 21st-century conflicts. There are three lines of BCS which make it a critical component of overall cybersecurity: (1) cyber operations within the area of BCS have life threatening consequences to a greater extent than other cyber operations, (2) the breach in health-related personal data is a significant tool for fatal attacks, and (3) health-related misinformation campaigns as a component of BCS can cause significant damage compared to other misinformation campaigns. Based on the observation that rather than initiating the necessary cooperation COVID-19 helped exacerbate the existing conflicts, the authors suggest that BCS needs to be considered as an essential component of the cyber doctrine, within the Defending Forward framework. The findings are expected to help future cyber policy developments.

Abstract:
Background/Aims: Cholestasis is characterized by intrahepatic accumulation of cytotoxic bile acids (BAs), ultimately leading to fibrosis and cirrhosis, but the precise role of BAs in cholestasis-induced liver fibrosis remains largely elusive. In this study, we investigated the role and the potential mechanisms of BAs during cholestasis in vivo and in vitro. Methods: The effect of BAs during cholestasis was studied in bile duct ligation (BDL) rat models in vivo. We performed immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and quantitative RT-PCR to investigate the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) in rat liver during cholestasis. The hepatic cell lines AML12 and BRL were stimulated with taurocholate (TC) and the level of CTGF/CCN2, and activation of ERK, Akt, p38 MAPK, JNK, YAP, and TGF-β/Smad signaling were examined using Western blotting. Next, to elucidate the mechanism underlying bile acid-induced CTGF/CCN2, we treated the cells with MEK1/2 inhibitor (U0126), YAP function inhibitor (verteporfin), p38 kinase inhibitor (SB203580), Akt inhibitor (MK2206), and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting mek1, erk, and yap in cooperation with TC. Besides, we confirmed the activation of these signaling pathways in BDL and sham rat livers by immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and quantitative RT-PCR. Results: In this study, we confirmed that the expression of CTGF/CCN2 was increased in BDL-induced rodent cholestatic liver fibrosis. In addition, we showed that TC, the main component of BAs, enhanced the synthesis of CTGF/ CCN2 in AML12 and BRL hepatic cell lines. Moreover, we demonstrated that TC activated ERK, Akt, and YAP signaling in hepatocytes, but the precise roles of these signaling cascades in the expression of CTGF/CCN2 were different: TC-induced expression of CTGF/CCN2 was mediated by ERK-YAP signaling, whereas Akt signaling inhibited ERK signaling and YAP and subsequently the expression of CTGF/CCN2 in hepatocytes. Furthermore, YAP functioned as a downstream regulator of ERK signaling in TC-induced CTGF/CCN2 expression in hepatocytes. Conclusion: Our report provides evidence for the role of conjugated BAs in liver fibrosis and suggests that the production of CTGF/CCN2, induced by conjugated BAs via ERK-YAP axis activation, may be a therapeutic target in cholestasis-induced liver fibrosis.

Abstract:
This article illustrates the importance of interoperability between computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer-aided engineering (CAE) software. Interoperability is an intricate concept, rife with accusation and blame-laying, and dependent on the unseen algorithms and mathematical equations that drive the lines and geometries CAD users see on screen. At the Daratech 2000 summit, a panel of technology users and technology vendors worked together to draft what was called a symposium communique that challenged suppliers to cooperate more with one another to move toward interoperability. The communique calls the interoperability issue one of the most troublesome aspects of CAD, CAM, and CAE usage. PTC in Waltham, MA, has released Associate Topology Bus, a tool that thy company says helps engineers share data between systems by allowing them to exchange geometry as well as what the company calls design-intent, between systems. Autodesk of San Rafael, California, offers interoperable features as what it calls DWG linking between its AutoCAD software and its 3D Studio Viz, a system used by architects. Its Mechanical Desktop software can read printed circuit board data in intermediate data format (IDF) and convert it to AutoCAD objects suitable for further mechanical design and manufacturing applications.

Abstract:
Lacking strong multilateral institutions, the East Asian regional order essentially seems to function along the lines suggested by realist perspectives on international relations. However, growing economic interdependence has transformed the conflictual landscape in ways that facilitate international cooperation. This may help to explain why in East Asia no major war has taken place since 1979. In the future, US–China rivalry will likely affect all aspects of East Asian regional order, but this competition will take place within the framework of a heavily institutionalized regional order offering some anchors to hold the power shift within the bounds of certain norms and principles. This might leave room for maneuver for middle and small powers in the region. Both the USA and China have also tried to find a common basis on which they can pursue mutual interests and sustain cooperation, thus steering clear of the fearsome “Thucydides trap.”

Abstract:
This introductory chapter gathers a number of local histories and suggests that although many Americans worshipped in churches and worked on shop floors, most lived in the space between the pew and the picket line. This space includes Pentecostal miners who had faith in prosperity and sought miracles at the mine; automobile workers and sympathetic ministers evangelizing one another on the shop floor; and black sharecroppers and white Protestant liberals who saw the creation of a credit union as an investment in a more cooperative capitalism. The chapter covers a vast chronological and geographic scope and draws upon the diverse experiences of the American workforce, arguing that the space between the pew and the picket line is not only where most Americans have lived, but where the contours of both American Christianity and American capitalism have been shaped.

Abstract:
Democracy is an extremely important social political good. Nonetheless, there is such a thing as having too much of a good thing. When we overdo democracy, we allow the categories, allegiances, and struggles of politics to overwhelm our social lives. This has the effect of undermining and crowding out many of the most important correlated social goods that democracy is meant to deliver. What’s more, in overdoing democracy, we spoil certain social goods that democracy needs in order to flourish. Thus overdoing democracy is democracy’s undoing. A thriving democracy needs citizens to reserve space in their shared social lives for collective activities and cooperative projects that are not structured by political allegiances; they must work together in social contexts where political affiliations and party loyalties are not merely suppressed, but utterly beside the point. Combining conceptual analyses of democratic legitimacy and responsible citizenship with empirical results regarding the political infiltration of social spaces and citizens’ vulnerabilities to polarization, this book provides a diagnosis of current democratic ills and a novel prescription for addressing them. Arguing that overdoing democracy is the result of certain tendencies internal to the democratic ideal itself, the book demonstrates that even in a democracy, politics must be put in its place.

Multiple cases have been reported in which patents have posed dilemmas in the context of cooperative standard setting.

Furthermore, JPEG and HTML standards, as well as VL-bus and SDRAM technologies, have faced patent-related difficulties. Nevertheless, it could be argued that complications have arisen in only a small fraction of standardization efforts, and that patents do not therefore constitute a real quandary. This article assesses the extent and the causes of the patent dilemma in the ICT sector through a brief analysis of how ICT companies’ patent strategies and technology-licensing practices relate to standard setting and by exemplifying and quantifying the problem on the basis of relevant articles, academic research papers, court cases and on-line discussions.

Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates that the Bush administration was critical of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's (OECD) harmful tax competition initiative from the outset of the administration's first term and therefore had an open ear for the anti-OECD narrative proposed by libertarian advocacy groups. Despite recurrent exchanges between senior Bush appointees and these lobbyists, however, the US Treasury did not fully embrace their requests. Much to their chagrin, it merely removed the anti-tax avoidance elements from the project, while still providing nominal support to its anti-tax evasion measures. The Bush administration's policy was thus more in line with the position of US multinationals represented by the United States Council for International Business (USCIB) than with the fundamental libertarian critique of tax cooperation in general. The administration's ability to transform this position into actual OECD policy despite being isolated within the Group of Seven (G7) is testimony to US power in international bargaining over tax matters.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) from 1969 to 1975. It contends that trust was both a tool and objective of the conference, detailing how, even in the absence of trust, a major international agreement was concluded with the Helsinki Final Act of 1975, the outcome of the CSCE talks. In a clear attempt to advance their respective interests, Warsaw Pact member states focused on state sovereignty and the immutability of post-World War II European borders as a cornerstone of their definition of international security, whereas North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member states emphasized transparency, freer movement, and human rights, as well as confidence-building measures. As this chapter argues, the “tangled lines of trust and distrust” at the CSCE among the United States, the Western European countries, the neutral states, and the Soviet Union were incredibly complex, but they eventually secured the conference's success.

Abstract:
The importance of cooperation in the field of application knowledge and skills in creative processes is a constantly discussed topic. In general, these processes are described by a many study, but each of them acknowledges the need to take into account the specificities of individual countries and industries. All firms in the knowledge processes use cooperative links with their partners and often also public funds, which the state provides to support increased competitiveness or innovative absorption. Therefore, the aim of this paper has been defined as (i) to verify whether cooperation on innovation activities lead to growth or decrease of firms’ turnover and (ii) to find ways to allocate public funds more effectively, because most of innovation activities and cooperation are supported from public funds. Two linear regression models were employed. Data was sourced from a harmonized questionnaire of selected EU Member States from the Community Innovation Survey carried out in the Czech Republic for the period 2010-2012. Analyses have confirmed that collaborative links are at the heart of innovation processes, as well as the manufacturing industry has significant public resources that support these links and influence the growth of their turnover.

Abstract:
We consider the use of autonomous boats for oil skimming and clean up of surface debris by operating two boats with a boom cooperatively. A boom, or a cable as considered in this paper, attached to two robots at each end can be used to efficiently manipulate multiple objects on the surface of the water. In our previous work, Bhattacharya, et al. (ICRA 2011), we showed the feasibility of this concept with an experimental testbed using two autonomous boats and a towed cable. This work showed that an accurate dynamic simulation of the system is indispensable in analysis and development of efficient control schemes. For the purpose of manipulating objects in such a way, not only do we need to model the drag forces, but we also need to model the interaction between the cable and the objects. In this paper we model the boom or the cable as a chain with a discrete number of rigid links connected by passive revolute joints and model the interaction of the cable with the water (drag) as well as the contacts with objects on the surfaces. We derive the equations governing the cable and object dynamics and model the contact interactions as linear complementarity constraints. The boats are driven by simple controllers that only require knowledge of positions and velocities at the both ends of the cable. Several examples are used to illustrate the performance of the numerical simulation.

Abstract:
A flying characteristic simulation method is studied for two-stage turbocharging Compression Ignition engine propeller propulsion system, intended for medium/high altitude low-speed long-endurance multi-role UAV systems at 10 ∼ 20 kilometers high, with cruising speed 100 ∼ 250 km/h. Introducing the simulation method for gas turbine engine with component models, based upon component maps or algebraic equations, this method solves joint-working equations of the propulsion system by Newton iteration method to obtain cooperation points of the system. A full-power holding requirement and turbocharger-engine collaboration condition are stated. The regulating rules in both full-power holding mode and power lapse mode are analyzed. The influences of regulating rules on turbocharger operating lines are placed. Finally, the altitude-velocity characteristics of the propulsion system and components are investigated. The research shows three results. This method converges rapidly that usually it needs only 5–6 iterations to obtain one operating point. The regulation scheme of two gas-bypass valves can not only meet the design objectives, but also allow an effective adjusting to the operating points of the turbochargers. This method can be extended conveniently to the simulations of more complex multi-stage turbocharging systems.

Abstract:
The architecture design process always changes because the software always updates with new tools and the development - innovation is in the first line of progress. The human-machine cooperation has become commonplace through Computer-Aided Design tools, but a more improved collaboration appears possible only through an endeavor into a kind of artificial design intelligence and Augmented Reality. According to all the above, the research shown in this paper the core ideas - identifying design specifications - of a next-generation collaborative design platform. The direct coupling of introducing multi-industry systems - tools, 3D databases, AEC, and Open-BIM technologies opens up totally new ways of approaching architectural design problems resulting in a new flexible modeling workflow with real-time visualization. Finally, this critical examination research makes an original contribution to changing 'attitude' towards the 3d modeling of architectural design thinking. A collaborative design platform creating a more efficient and versatile architecture.

Abstract:
After any disaster that happens, whether natural or war, all governments and organizations accelerate to respond at all levels, humanitarian and others, to restore the damage. If this disaster is huge, it will result in a great change so that what comes after it does not resemble what it was before. In this study, it will be discussed how to respond effectively and how local and foreign authorities can cooperate to achieve the required response. Measuring the effectiveness of disaster response is not by the speed of this response, despite its importance, but the nature of intervention and its effects on the lives of people. It’s important to measure whether this intervention leads to the strengthening of urban aspects and increases the public participation and whether it gives stability to the city and population or not, and to what extent this intervention defines the future of this city in general.

Abstract:
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro) Red Line (MRL) provides heavy rail subway service with six-car trains at up to 65 mph, connecting downtown to the San Fernando Valley with weekday headways down to five minutes. MRL trains have either DC chopper propulsion or AC propulsion. Revenue service measurements at the busy Westlake/MacArthur Park station show that natural regeneration from braking trains to accelerating trains recoups 34% of the energy provided by nearby braking trains. The remaining 66% of the braking train energy is a candidate for capture and reuse. To capture and reuse this energy, Metro contracted with VYCON Inc. to design, supply, and integrate a flywheel Wayside Energy Storage Substation (WESS). WESS will capture and reuse train braking energy at the MRL Westlake traction power substation, located at the Westlake/MacArthur Park station. The project, funded by a grant from the Federal Transit Administration through its Transit Investments for Greenhouse Gas and Energy Reduction (TIGGER) Program under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), is being cooperatively performed by Metro and VYCON. The initial WESS deployment is of a 2 MW rated system with a 15 s charge / discharge time, and an 8.33 kWh energy capacity. The WESS design allows easy expansion to a 6 MW rating. This paper presents results from initial MRL tests to measure regenerative energy savings which occur during revenue service operations, before installing the WESS.

Abstract:
The main features and general structures of two distant learning modules within geographical information science for vocational training are presented in this paper. “European Level Developments of Flexible Learning Models within Geographical Information Science (GIS) for Vocational Training (E-GIS)” was a pilot project under the Leonardo de Vinci Community action Programme on vocational training, within Geographical Information Science (GIS), to be implemented over a three year period, 2002–05. The project will be continued in 2008–2009 under the abbreviation eGIS+. The main objectives of the project is to establish co-operation between European Universities and GIS user organisations and to develop modularised courses intended for Internet based learning, establish links of communications between the partners in the project in order to disseminate and share “best practices” in different teaching situations and for different types of students. The course modules to be developed, all together, will constitute a one-year programme within GIS. This project mainly targets full time students, private and civil service employees within the European Union, but also similar categories in non-EU countries. The outcomes of the project is high level content, new net-based pedagogic method suited for accessing target groups of great diversity as regards pedagogic traditions, access to computers and bandwidth. Cooperation between the institutions will, certainly, give higher level courses than the individual institutions could possibly themselves. “Training of Lithuanian Geographic Information Infrastructure managers” is a project supported by European Union Structural Funds and National Land Service under the Ministry of Agriculture of Lithuania Republic. The main objective of the proposed geographic information e-training system is to develop and provide the modularised Spatial Information Infrastructure courses intended for on-line based learning. This mainly will target employees of civil service and private business in Lithuania and European Union. Proposed curriculum is a set of modular courses adding up to 1.5-year part-time studies in the field of Geographic Information Science and Geographic Information Infrastructure.

Abstract:
The Eastern Mediterranean has attracted new attention on the gas potential in the world. In fact, overseas research in the eastern Mediterranean waters began in the late 1960s with a number of wells opened by Belpetco. With the overseas production of the region in recent years, it has entered the world agenda. However, these discoveries have triggered additional conflicts between the states on the establishment of sovereign rights and the limitation of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). In 2009, a large amount of energy was produced in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. The resulting supply, economic line in the westward movement, between Cyprus and Turkey, Turkey would reach out to EU countries. Arish-Ashkelon, which supplies gas to Israel, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, has been identified as a pipeline. The other line is the Arab Gas Pipeline. The cooperation with the implementation of the line was met and accepted. But the Syrian civil war has postponed this view for now. When Cyprus joined the EU in 2004, the Sea of Levantine made the European Union a sea border for all practical purposes. In the early 2000s, Cyprus and Turkey's EU membership expectancy, could boost optimism about the possibility of a breakthrough. Turkey should not be admitted to the EU has prevented the solution of the Cyprus problem. Turkey and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) and made clear that the agreement with the International Exclusive Economic Zone reached 200 Mile limits. The energy source derived from the region, the future of both Turkey and the TRNC will be able to improve the economic well-being. Thus, will contribute to peace in the region.

Abstract:
In 2003 a Cooperation Agreement, envisaging a grant of 360 Meuro in 10 years, was signed between Italy and Russia in the framework of the “so-called” Global Partnership Program. So far, in five years of concrete work, a total of 146 Meuro have been engaged through 33 contracts and 121 Meuro have been already paid. Together with other significant lines of activities the management of waste, presently located at Andreeva Bay site, is surely the most important one, not only for the amount of allocated funds (about the half of available ones) but also for the urgency to solve serious environmental problems linked to the actual unsafe conditions of these waste, both as regards possible incidents or malicious attacks from outside. Volume of Low Level and Intermediate Level (LL/IL) waste at Andreeva Bay site are 17000 tons and 3000 tons, respectively for solid and liquid; moreover is expected, during the next 15 years, the production of additional 33000 tons of liquid and 8000 tons of solid, due to the need of demolishing existing facilities and final closing of the site. As regards radwaste management facilities, the solution defined in OBIN (justification of investment) has been analyzed and critically reviewed. After the completion of a conceptual study, the construction of three facilities (solid and liquid treatment ones and a protective structure for storing on site temporarily conditioned waste) was decided and a contract was assigned in 2010 to Ansaldo Nucleare/AtomStroyExport for the detailed design of the above mentioned facilities, which is expected to be completed in 2012. Some important modifications to the initial time schedule have been taken into account and now the operation of the facilities is expected by 2015, two years before the previous estimate.
