  • REPORT for the 88Th IUVSTA Workshop “Towards Reality in Nanoscale Materials”
    REPORT for the 88th IUVSTA Workshop “Towards Reality in Nanoscale Materials” Background and outcome The 88th workshop was organized under the sponsorships of Aalto University, TSV Federation and the IUVSTA Nanometer Structures Division with the support of the Electronic Materials and Process Division and Surface Engineering Division on 12-14 February 2019 in Levi, Finland. The workshop was jointly organized by Prof. Adam Foster, Aalto University, Dr. Carla Bittencourt, University of Mons, Belgium, Dr. Arkady Krasheninnikov, Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Germany and Aalto University, Finland and Dr. Teemu Hynninen, University of Turku, Finland. Prof Foster and Dr. Hynninen acted as local organizers. The main idea behind this workshop was to bring together representatives of solid-state physics and materials science communities who use theoretical computational tools to present and discuss state-of-the-art developments and perspectives of solid-state, computational and molecular physics techniques in modeling of defects and irradiation effects in various nanoscale materials, including carbon nanomaterials, such as graphene. Considerable attention has also been given to surface probe methods. The lectures given by the experts in simulations of irradiation effects in nanomaterials such as carbon and boron-nitride nanotubes, graphene, small metal clusters etc., were combined with those presented by the developers of the relevant simulation methods (e.g., time- dependent density-functional theory, molecular dynamics algorithms). In addition to the theoretical advances, recent progress in experiments were covered by several speakers. The latest and most important results in the field were presented by the speakers and during the poster session. In addition to recently published results, a considerable amount of new unpublished data was presented.

  • Proceedings of the 18Th Edition of the Belgian-Netherlands Software Evolution Symposium
    Proceedings of the 18th edition of the BElgian-NEtherlands software eVOLution symposium http://soft.vub.ac.be/benevol2019/ Dario Di Nucci Coen De Roover Tilburg University / JADS Vrije Universiteit Brussel The goal of BENEVOL is to bring together researchers who are working in the field of software evolution and maintenance. BENEVOL offers an informal forum to meet and to discuss new ideas, important problems, and obtained research results. The 18th edition of BENEVOL was organized and hosted by the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium from 28th to 29th November 2019. It accepted 11 technical papers and 20 presentation abstracts. Technical papers underwent a mild yet constructive review. We explicitly solicited papers in the early stages of research, which are still rather rough around the edges and could benefit from feedback from the community. Technical papers were reviewed by at least three members of the program committee, assessing whether they are within the scope of BENEVOL (i.e., software maintenance and evolution) and meet its quality criteria. The papers part of the proceedings includes the feedback received during the workshop. Presentation abstracts report on research results that have already been published, or that are ready to be submitted to a conference or a journal. They were reviewed for relevance, and are not included in the BENEVOL proceedings. These contributions are available on the website of the workshop. Furthermore, BENEVOL 2019 featured two keynotes this year. Fabio Palomba, assistant professor at the University of Salerno, gave an overview of the problems, solutions, and challenges associated with flaky tests. Vadim Zaytsev, chief science officer of Raincode Labs talked about his experience in developing and teaching how to build compilers for legacy languages.

    JUNE 30, 2015 OPEN ACCESS IN BELGIUM PASTEUR4OA PROJECT FUND FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH-FNRS OPEN ACCESS IN BELGIUM OPEN ACCESS IN BELGIUM The Fund for Scientific Research-FNRS The Fund for Scientific Research-FNRS (F.R.S-FNRS) is the major research funding agency promoting and supporting basic scientific research for the French-speaking community of Belgium (Brussels-Wallonia Federation, BWF). Founded in 1928, it mainly receives public subsidies. The Fund supports individual researchers on the basis of academic excellence by offering temporary or permanent positions. The Fund also provides funding to research teams, grants and credits for international collaboration, as well as scientific prizes. The Fund fosters research in all scientific fields, following a bottom-up approach of investigator-driven research. It supports researchers in an ever growing context of internationalisation through facilitating their mobility, allowing for collaborative transnational projects and supporting a high level international working environment. The Flemish counterpart of F.R.S.-FNRS, the Fonds Wetenschappelijke Onderzoek (FWO) has similar OA mandates, also inspired by the Brussels Declaration of 2012 (cfr infra). Summary The Belgian political landscape is complex and this complexity is reflected in the scientific system. Luckily, the multiple power layers did not preclude to the birth and development of open access policies. Indeed, the move towards for OA for publications started more than 10 years ago in Belgium. It is the creation of the Immediate Deposit and Optional Access (ID/OA) at Université de Liège (ULg) in 2007 paved the way for Belgian OA mandates. OA policies were developed by more than 15 Belgian research organisations.

    PROGRESS CONNECT TRUST GOVERNMENT OF FLANDERS 2014-2019 COALITION AGREEMENT ALL THE PIctuRES IN THIS puBLIcatION WERE taKEN BY TOM D’HAENENS. VISION STATEMENT GOVERNMENT OF FLANDERS 2014-2019 COALITION AGREEMENT Flanders is facing a difficult and challenging period. We are still struggling with the impact of the economic crisis. Furthermore, the sixth state reform has allocated additional powers to us, but on the other hand there are also major budgetary challenges to be dealt with. At the same time, we are confronted with major social challenges, especially in terms of care and education. Equally important aspects include the need for more jobs; further development of our inclusive community; better quality water, soil and air; critical infrastructure works; and a thriving business climate. Plus, all of this must be achieved on a balanced budget. Our response to these challenges takes the form of a triptych, which embodies familiar historic heritage. We have designed a Flemish triptych for the future: trust, connect, and progress. Trust in our own abilities. Because Flanders possesses all the qualities and talent for achieving our ambition: to be a European leader in terms of welfare and well-being by 2020. But also trust in each other. You do not tackle difficult obstacles alone, but shoulder to shoulder. Therefore trust also means connecting, to each other and to each other’s talent and qualities, so that we can progress side by side. No one will be left behind. Trust begins with transparency, which is why we will tell it like it is. We will all have to make a contribution.
