Today, this network counts 610 sites in 117 countries across the world, stretching from terrestrial to coastal and marine ecosystems, from high mountain peaks to deep ocean abysses. In Sub-Saharan Africa, there are 64 biosphere reserves in 28 countries. This publication provides an overview of the unique role of biosphere reserves for sus- tainable development and nature conservation in the continent. African countries implemented this concept very early as soon as 1976 when the first sites were rec- ognized.

    Regional Overview – Africa 2 October 2018 acleddata.com/2018/10/02/regional-overview-africa-2-october-2018/ Margaux Pinaud October 2, 2018 There were several key developments in Africa during the week of September 23rd. In Burkina Faso, reports of heavy attacks on civilians by the security forces last week add another layer to the deepening instability in the country. On September 24th, no fewer than 29 individuals were summarily executed by the defense and security forces in two incidents in Petegoli and Inata villages of Soum province (Sahel region). The forces claimed they were militants. On the same day, in Kompienga province (Est region), government forces killed a young person while raiding an Imam’s house in Kabonga village. In a closely linked incident on September 24th, unknown gunmen abducted and later executed the deputy Imam of Kompienga from a village close to Kabonga. A few days after the violence, opposition leaders and civil society activists held a large rally in the capital, Ouagadougou, denouncing President Kabore’s inability to provide security to the Burkinabes and demanding the sacking of Clement Pengwende Sawadogo and Jean-Claude Bouda, respectively Ministers of Security and Defense. In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), the Resistance to the Rule of Law in Burundi (RED-TABARA) and the Front for Democracy in Burundi (FRODEBU) remain major security threats, despite being considered ‘foreign’ groups. The ADF have been particularly active in 2018 in Nord-Kivu, ambushing FARDC and MONUSCO forces on a regular basis primarily in the Oicha and Beni territories, as well as attacking civilians in villages in these areas.

  • 15 Pecision System Clock Architecture
    Pecision System Clock Architecture 15 Pecision System Clock Architecture “Time iz like money, the less we hav ov it teu spare the further we make it go.” Josh Billing Encyclopedia and Proverbial Philosophy of Wit and Humor, 1874 225 Pecision System Clock Architecture Limitations of the Art Over the almost three decades that NTP has evolved, accuracy expectations have improved from 100 ms to less than 1 ms on fast LANs with multiple segments interconnected by switches and less than a few milliseconds on most campus and corporate networks with multiple subnets interconnected by routers. Today the practical expectations with a GPS receiver, PPS signal and precision kernel support are a few microseconds. In principle the ultimate expectations are limited only by the 232-ps resolution of the NTP timestamp format or about the time light travels three inches. Improving accuracy expectations below the PPS regime is proving intricate and tricky. In this chapter we turn to the most ambitious means available to minimize errors in the face of hardware and software not designed for extraordinary timekeeping. First we examine the hardware and software components for a precision system clock and evolve an optimal design. Next we survey timestamping techniques using both hardware, driver and software methods to minimize errors due to media, device and operating system latencies. Finally, we explore the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP), how it is used in a high speed LAN, and how it and NTP can sail in the same boat. The parting shots section proposes a hardware assisted design which provides performance equivalent to PTP with only minimal modifications to the Unix operating system kernel.
