The UC giant's updated product roadmap reflects Avaya's plan to tap into its massive install base and pave the way for migration to the cloud or the addition of over-the-top cloud solutions that won't "disrupt" communications infrastructure that's already in place, the company tells CRN.
Avaya experienced a turbulent 2022 with missed revenue targets and earnings, layoffs, and a new CEO brought on to redirect the company. Now, the unified communications powerhouse is unveiling an updated and simplified product roadmap.
The company is placing a larger emphasis on the omnichannel Avaya Experience platform, the centerpiece of its cloud strategy, in a way that both addresses the market demand for all-in-one for contact center as-a-service (CCaaS) solutions, while balancing the needs of its massive install base of customers, Steve Forcum, head of Solutions Marketing for Avaya, told CRN.
"What we want to do is we want to meet our customers where they are. Experience Platform is an incredible piece of tech, but at the end of the day, moving what works in your organization to a different platform simply to add these capabilities is a lot of times a nonstarter for our customers," he said.
The Avaya Experience Platform is the company's "North Star" in which the rest of Avaya's portfolio orbits, Forcum said. The goal of the platform is to empower organizations to support the touch points that occur between the business or brand and the end customers, but then weaving them into an ongoing discussion. "This is really where the magic happens," he said. "If I'm in a discussion with a customer and they tell me that two weeks ago, they spoke to someone, I can actually go back in time [and] see who that person was talking to and pull up the transcript of what was said. This way, I can pick that conversation where and when it left off and then treat it like a relay race for the next employee that's going to interact with this customer."
The next step will include harvesting the data collected by the platform and turning it into actionable information for partners and end customers that go beyond simple performance metrics, Forcum said.
[Related: Avaya CEO Calls For 'Innovation Without Disruption' For Enterprises ]
Avaya is still the largest premise-based UC provider on the market, which gives partners the unique ability to transition or even partially transition customers to the cloud based on their requirements, according to the company. There are many customers that aren't looking to rip and replace their existing premise-architected communications solutions, but they may be interested in moving to the cloud for contact center-as-a-service (CCaaS) or an omnichannel collaboration solution, Avaya's new CEO Alan Masarek told CRN in September.
"The beauty is, no one wants to go through that loss of the rip and replace. We can uniquely provide what competitors can't. A competing [solution], by definition, is a complete rip and replace. Ours is not. It's innovation without disruption and that really resonates with customers and partners," Masarek said.
Offering innovation without disruption starts with Avaya's customer base currently on the Avaya Aura and Contact Center Elite platforms, which make up the bulk of Avaya's 100 million-seat install base, Forcum said.
Most of these customers have these solutions deployed in their data centers, he added. "The first thing we're communicating to these customers is that if it ain't broke, you don't need to fix it. If your voice is routing properly, if you've got all these applications intertwined and you don't want to move that to somewhere else, you don't have to."
This strategy will allow partners to help their customers "upgrade in place," while keeping the existing platform current, while buying the product on a perpetual license or if they move to a subscription model. "You can pull down services from Experience Platform to add to that environment … we're empowering further choice," Forcum said.
Avaya in 2023 will be launching a unified client for Contact Center Elite and the Experience Platform to give users a single sign-on and pane of glass with which to view customer interactions. Avaya will also be adding an over-the-top integration between the Experience Platform and Avaya IP Office for VoIP, Forcum added.
For customers that are ready to go all-in on cloud for their communications needs, Avaya is ready to move IP Office users to Avaya Cloud Office (ACO), its UC offering based on the RingCentral platform. ACO and the Experience Platform are already fully integrated for combined UC and CCaaS needs.
Avaya said it plans on introducing more than 300 new features and enhancements to its communications solutions over the course of 2023.
Removing Complexity
In going live with its updated product roadmap, Avaya wanted to stress clarity and simplicity, Forcum said.
One of the first places the Durham, N.C.-based company is starting is injecting clarity within its product naming convention, which has been "conceptual" and will now be more "tangible," Forcum said. For example, the company's OneCloud CCaaS cloud-based contact center solution is now referred to as the Avaya Experience Platform. Avaya OneCloud Private, its private cloud offering, is now Avaya Enterprise Cloud as a nod to the offering's strength with large customers, the company said.
"This is an ongoing effort that will be applying to other areas of our product portfolio to make it easier to understand when we're explaining solutions, and when customers are looking at different products, and what we're actually aiming at," he said.
The embattled company, in addition to simplifying its product portfolio, has also been working on "right sizing the organization. Avaya in September initiated cost-cutting measures that includes an unspecified number of layoffs following its plan announced in July to begin "significant" cost-cutting measures to the tune of $225 million to $250 million during the company's last fiscal quarter.
"As previously stated, lowering our costs, including through a reduction in our workforce, is necessary to position Avaya as a more agile and innovative organization and to align Avaya's cost structure with our contractual, recurring revenue business model," said Avaya CEO Alan Masarek in a statement regarding the layoffs two months ago.
Masarek said the company's "reset" has required difficult decisions across the organizations and within Avaya's portfolio, but said the changes are "necessary" to facilitate the company's software transformation, in a blog post published on Tuesday.
Avaya has about 90,000 customers globally, according to the company.

AustinCIS, based in Plano, Texas, provides a broad range of services spanning cloud strategy and modernization, data-focused business intelligence and analytics, product strategies and management, automation including artificial intelligence and machine learning, and compliance and governance.

Revamped Avaya Road Map Orbits Around Cloud, Experience Platform
Unified communications giant Avaya wins kudos this week for providing customers and partners with an updated product road map that reflects the company's plan to pave the way for its massive installed base to migrate to the cloud or add cloud solutions that won't disrupt communications infrastructure that's already in place.
As part of the road map Avaya is putting a lot of emphasis on its omnichannel Avaya Experience platform, the centerpiece of the company's cloud strategy, that addresses the market demand for all-in-one Contact Center as-a-Service solutions while balancing the needs of customers with installed legacy technology.
The Avaya plan calls for analyzing data collected by the Avaya Experience platform and turning it into actionable information for partners, helping them work with customers to migrate to cloud systems with as little disruption as possible.
Ivanti Hires Former GitLab Executive Hodges As Its New Channel Chief
IT asset management and security technology provider Ivanti made a big move to beef up its channel management ranks this week, including hiring former GitLab channel executive Michelle Hodges to be the company's new channel chief.
Hodges joins Ivanti as senior vice president, global channels and alliances. She previously worked at DevOps platform company GitLab for three years as vice president of worldwide channels. Her background includes channel management positions at Gigamon, Riverbed Technology, Intel, VMware, SAP/Business Objects and Microsoft, according to her LinkedIn page.
Ivanti has also hired John Beuchert as vice president, global partner programs and strategy. Most recently he was global head of partner programs and operations for Freshworks and has held channel management jobs with Citrix Systems, CA, Veritas and Symantec.
Hodges and Beuchert are charged with building a more connected partner ecosystem that integrates Invanti's core partner program with a number of other OEM, technology and channel partner programs the company has following a number of acquisitions.
Sophos Says New MDR Offering Ushers In New Era Of "Cybersecurity As A Service"
Sophos this week launched a new managed detection and response cybersecurity service that CEO Kris Hagerman (pictured) described as a major step forward for the company and for the cybersecurity industry at large.
The new Sophos Managed Detection and Response service, generally available starting this week, integrates telemetry from third-party vendors including Sophos competitors such as CrowdStrike, Microsoft and SentinelOne. That capability provides security operations teams with expanded visibility into an organization's security stance.
Sophos channel partners said the new offering is a game-changer for customers and solution providers. Sophos already provides its Sophos Managed Threat Response service, but that works exclusively with its own products.

Multinational technology company Avaya has shown how customers can immerse themselves in the metaverse with a technology demonstration that extends contact centre capabilities into new, virtual territory.
Shown at Gartner IT Symposium / Xpo in Barcelona, Avaya's "Metaverse Experience" concept builds the link between the metaverse and the real world.
It demonstrates how organisations can extend their contact centre capabilities into the metaverse using Avaya Experience Platform.
It also shows how businesses can imagine how their contact centre agents can support and interact with customers within the virtual world.
"Avaya customers can experiment with the metaverse and add contact centre capabilities without having to bring in a new platform or go through a major upgrade," said ZK Research founder and principal analyst Zeus Kerravala.
"Organisations are competing in an experience economy, and they need advanced features and capabilities to deliver the experiences that their customers and employees demand. But they also need a migration path to rolling out these capabilities that does not involve the disruptive ripping and replacing of existing technology," said Avaya vice president certified organisation Yaser Alzubaidi.
"With the Avaya Experience Platform, we are bringing this ability to life—and the Metaverse Experience concept is a prime example of what you can achieve with such a platform."
The Metaverse Experience is one of a number of concepts being demonstrated by Avaya at Gartner IT Symposium / Xpo in Barcelona, where the company is showcasing solutions that enable organisations to turn every moment with customers into momentum for their businesses.
ENABLE HYBRID CLOUD & REDUCE NETWORK LATENCY WHITEPAPER
Hybrid cloud promises to bring together the best of both worlds enabling businesses to combine the scalability and cost-effectiveness of the cloud with the performance and control that you can get from your on-premise infrastructure.
Reducing WAN latency is one of the biggest issues with hybrid cloud performance. Taking advantage of compression and data deduplication can reduce your network latency.
Research firm, Markets and Markets, predicted that the hybrid cloud market size is expected to grow from US$38.27 billion in 2017 to US$97.64 billion by 2023.
Colocation facilities provide many of the benefits of having your servers in the cloud while still maintaining physical control of your systems.
Cloud adjacency provided by colocation facilities can enable you to leverage their low latency high bandwidth connections to the cloud as well as providing a solid connection back to your on-premises corporate network.

By Adrianne Appel2022-12-02T18:23:00
Avaya Holdings disclosed its assessment of internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) in its fiscal year 2021 annual report can't be relied upon, along with acknowledging weaknesses in its ethics and compliance program.
The deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) represented "material weaknesses," the cloud technology company said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Wednesday. While Avaya contends with the control lapses, the company will file late its annual report for the year ended Sept. 30, 2022, it disclosed separately.
The announcements follow internal investigations and audits the company launched after learning its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, would be "significantly lower than previous expectations," according to a late filing notice Avaya delivered to the SEC on Aug. 9.

Philadelphia tops new Zagat survey
28 March 2003 by David Harris
The latest Zagat guide to the USA's top restaurants has given three outlets in the relatively unfashionable city of Philadelphia a higher mark than any in New York City or Los Angeles.
Fountain, Le Bar Lyonnais and Le Bec Fin in Philadelphia all received a mark of 29 out of a possible 30 for their cooking in the 2003 guide. Only 12 restaurants nationwide received a 29 rating.
Philadelphia's success means that the guide rates its top restaurants more highly than celebrated venues such as Le Bernardin, Daniel and Alain Ducasse in New York, which is the city usually regarded as offering the best food in the USA.
However, the publishers of the guide were cautious about concluding that Philadelphia's trio of high scorers means their food is better, because the guide is based on reader surveys. It may just have been the result of loyal Philadelphia diners rating their own restaurants more generously.
Tim Zagat said: "With more top-rated restaurants to choose from, New York City and Los Angeles locals seem to set tougher standards."
The guide also noted the continuing trend for Americans generally to eat more in neighbourhood restaurants.
"This year the most important change has been that Americans are eating closer to home, both physically and psychologically. As a result, restaurants in residential areas and suburbs have enjoyed record business, while city centre and tourist-based restaurants have had a tough time. Also, comfort food has had a comeback, even in fine-dining restaurants."
Other zagat findings
Priciest city: New York (£22.65 for an average dinner with one drink and tip)
Cheapest: Houston (£12.86)
Average tip nationally: 17.75%
Frequency of eating out: 3.2 times per week
Percentage eating out less: 36%
Percentage eating at less expensive places: 27%
Percentage who say that the weak economy has made them look more closely at prices: 27%

Spain - Study Abroad - Undergraduate - Bilbao

This city is Bilbao, the largest city in the Basque Country, an area within Spain where the inhabitants speak the unique language of Basque. It is also the most economically and industrially active section of this area, with almost as many construction agencies and commercial conglomerates as Madrid or Barcelona, rivaling the likes of America's own Silicon Valley and Wall Street. And considering that the Basque area experienced a massive boom during the industrial revolution, that is truly saying something, and makes this city ideal for any economic or business major searching for real-world experience.
But this special little treasure is perfect for more than just financially-minded students. From the Nervion River to the gulf of the North Atlantic Ocean, this major seaport enjoys a sparkling setting on the water, and offers a sprawling urban environment with a decidedly classic feel. While the city rests on water, it rises high into the clouds with its two major mountain ranges - Pagasarri and Artxanda - which surround 'the hole' from the north and south and give it its year-round mild climate.
Don't think studying in Bilbao will leave you out in the country, though. The city not only displays an impressive skyline, but it inhabits more than 350,000 people within its borders, and more than 940,000 people in the Greater Bilbao Basque area. The city is also in the process of a massive urban renewal, looking to move beyond its industrial heritage to become the tourist attraction it so deserves to be.
Recent additions to the city include new museums like the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum, useful public transportation such as a Paris-esque Metro system and an expanded port area offering sea-side shopping and dining. The Fine Arts Museum, already one of Spain's most popular and important art galleries, has also recently been refurbished, and other old buildings are being restored while new buildings are constructed as modern architectural marvels. The Basque word for Bilbao - Bilbo - may be a character in a timeless J.R.R. Tolkien novel, but modern-day Bilbao is more like Bond than Bilbo, and as such, the city served as the opening setting for the 1999 James Bond film The World is Not Enough.
The Bilbao of today is a student's paradise. Language majors can study both Spanish and Basque, art majors can enjoy some of the most important galleries in the city, economic majors can learn from the thriving business practices, etc., etc. Not only does it offer great educational opportunities, but the city is located on a river between two mountain ranges, and enjoys constantly mild temperatures. It is looking to expand and improve in every conceivable way, and it was already spectacular. Really, how can a student pass up this wonderful opportunity?

Concert Review: Boston Symphony Orchestra/Bramwell Tovey Light Up Symphony Hall
After the Lobgesang's premiere, Robert Schumann declared this movement "a glimpse of heaven filled with Raphael's madonnas," and Saturday's performance by the BSO came about as close to that as one could imagine, sensitively phrased and beautifully blended.
By Jonathan Blumhofer
Conductor Bramwell Tovey brought a pleasing tautness and energy to the LOBGESANG's sometimes sprawling structure.
The classical music landscape is dotted with curious pieces. Many of them are small-scale—experimental chamber scores, works intended to showcase the talents of particular virtuosi, and the like—that turn up time and again on concerts and in recitals. Large-scale examples, though, are rarer to come by and also tend to be performed with less frequency.
So this weekend's performances by the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) of Felix Mendelssohn's Lobgesang ("Hymn of Praise") rightly stand as one of the high points of Boston's classical music season. Saturday's performance, which included sopranos Carolyn Sampson and Camilla Tilling, tenor John Tessier, and the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, all conducted by Bramwell Tovey, did not disappoint: though the piece presents some interpretive challenges, the combined forces at Symphony Hall tackled them with energy and insight, bringing Mendelssohn's inventive and often highly-inspired score vividly to life.
The Lobgesang, which bears the somewhat cumbersome designation of "Symphony-Cantata on Words from the Holy Scriptures," was written in 1840 as the culminating work on a three-day festival in Leipzig that commemorated the 400th anniversary of Guttenberg's invention of moveable type. The premiere, which Mendelssohn conducted at Leipzig's famed Thomaskirche, was a public triumph, though critics and even some of Mendelssohn's closest friends soon voiced concerns about the work's structure, especially the inclusion of a chorus and vocal soloists with orchestra. This latter fact inevitably drew negative comparisons to Beethoven's Ninth, and, within a few decades of Mendelssohn's death in 1847, the Lobgesang (which had by then been published as his Symphony no. 2) was regularly pilloried by analysts and critics: possibly the most memorable indictment came from the English musicologist Gerald Abraham, who declared it to be the "most dismal attempt to follow the lead of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony ever conceived by human mediocrity."
Abraham, I can assure you, was strongly overreacting, and his sentiments echo a broader, complicated disenchantment with Mendelssohn's music that endured well into the 20th century. Actually, the Lobgesang owes less to Beethoven's influence than to that of Beethoven's greatest German predecessor: Johann Sebastian Bach. By the time Mendelssohn wrote the Lobgesang, he was more than a decade into his championship of Bach's great choral and instrumental works, and one can sense Bach's influence in the vigorously contrapuntal textures Mendelssohn devised for both singers and instruments in the piece. In certain of the choral sections of Lobgesang, too, Bach's spirit hovers nearby, no more so than in the work's eighth movement, a reharmonization of the chorale "Nun danket alle Gott" ("Now Thank We All Our God").
But the Lobgesang is much more than just a series of imitations of high points in the German musical tradition up to 1840. As Helen M. Greenwald's fine program notes point out, the theme of the piece is giving thanks for the gift of "light," or knowledge. In this context, Mendelssohn's incorporation of historical references through quotation, imitation, and instrumentation can be understood as thanksgiving for musical "light," rather than some sort of apery.

On Saturday evening, the light—both musical and ideological—shone brightly. All of the context in the world can't redeem shoddy music, no matter how noble its purpose. There's very little bad music in Mendelssohn's output, though, and none (so far as I'm concerned) in the Lobgesang: this is a great score that deserves to be far better known than it is. The work is essentially cast in two parts. The first, a Sinfonia, consists of three orchestral movements played without break. The second is a nine-movement cantata for various combinations of soloists and/or chorus. Unifying all is the noble phrase that opens the piece, first heard in the low brass; later on, the text "Alles was Odem hat, lobe den Herrn" ("All that has breath, praise the Lord") is set to this motto, and it recurs at various important structural moments including, most dramatically, over the final bars.
The BSO has only performed the Lobgesang on two other occasions (in Pittsburgh in 1890 and at Symphony Hall in 1988). On this third go-around, they launched into its opening bars with a level of energy that was positively thrilling, making this performance an "event" from the downbeat. Making his BSO subscription debut, Mr. Tovey, substituting for the indisposed Riccardo Chailly, brought a pleasing tautness and energy to the Lobgesang's sometimes sprawling structure. His tempos were on the brisk side, and, while there were a couple of moments (in the opening and closing choruses, especially) where it might have been nice to slow things down a bit and enjoy the sonic vista, it's hard to argue with a performance by an inspired BSO and Tanglewood Festival Chorus (TFC).
Throughout the Sinfonia, the BSO played as though possessed, shaping Mendelssohn's phrases and dynamic gestures with uncommon clarity and energy. The minor key second movement featured some of the most beautifully articulated lyrical playing from woodwinds and strings I've yet heard from the ensemble, while the slow third movement possessed a gravitas that contrasted nicely with the exuberance of the opening movement.
There was no let-up of energy in the Lobgesang's second half, when the cantata started in earnest. The TFC, prepared by John Oliver, was, as usual, in fine and glorious form. The Lobgesang is a score that puts the chorus through quite a workout, demanding a stylistic versatility that encompasses a chorale; a couple of fugues; and a beautiful, gentle duet with the solo sopranos. On Saturday the group was more than up to the challenge, enunciating the German text crisply and fully engaging with the character of the music.
But the vocal highlights of the evening didn't just belong to the TFC: they were shared with (and, at times, eclipsed by) the two extraordinary soprano soloists on hand for the occasion. Ms. Sampson and Ms. Tilling were both making their BSO debuts, and one only hopes that both will be back very soon. Each possesses a clear, sweet, expressive voice that ideally suits Mendelssohn's writing in this score. Ms. Sampson had more extended solos on this program (beginning with the aria, "Lobe den Herrn, meine Seele") and took full advantage of them, radiating brightness and warmth. The highpoint of the evening, though, was the transcendent account of the duet for sopranos accompanied by chorus, "Ich harrete des Herrn" ("I waited for the Lord"). After the Lobgesang's premiere, Robert Schumann declared this movement "a glimpse of heaven filled with Raphael's madonnas," and Saturday's performance came about as close to that as one could imagine, sensitively phrased and beautifully blended.
Soprano Carolyn Sampson
Tenor John Tessier, who's a fine singer in his own right, was somewhat overshadowed by the excellence of his colleagues on his right. He was also, on a couple of occasions, nearly covered up by the orchestra. Still, his evident enthusiasm and musicianship went a long way to make amends for such moments, and his final duet with Ms. Sampson was an example of music making of the highest order.
I should also take a moment to commend James David Christie on his excellent, sensitive handling of the Lobgesang's organ part. It's all too rare to hear that majestic instrument in Symphony Hall, but when it does appear, it's a treat.
On a personal note, I've been familiar with Mendelssohn's Lobgesang for almost 20 years now, since I was in my early teens. While that's not quite as long as it's been since the BSO last played the score (24 years), it is a while. Since the beginning, my favorite movement in the piece has been the central chorus "Die Nacht ist Vergangen" ("The night has passed away"), and on Saturday, hearing it live for the first time, I was struck by the fact that everything that is right about this piece and this weekend's performances was present in this movement: inspired music and musicians, notes brimming with energy, and every phrase played (and sung) with total conviction. Here's to hoping we get to hear this Lobgesang, these singers, and Mr. Tovey at Symphony Hall many times again before 2036 rolls around. They've certainly made the case for themselves this weekend.

Ron Barnell says
Having attended the Saturday night performance of the Mendelssohn:
Lobgesang, I wanted to agree with and commend Jonathan Blumhofer for his insightful review of the concert.
With the conductor substitutions that have been necessary this current season, none have been more fortuitous for BSO concert-goers than the opportunity to experience this Mendelssohn rarity, as performed by Maestro Tovey, who seemed to effortlessly exact an organic whole and sonic splendor out of this score.
Having attended several Mendelssohn concerts (most recently a great
performance of Elijah, with Frubeck de Burgos), it has become evident that the Boston Symphony can lay claim to a rich legacy of performing the music of Felix Mendelssohn, much as they can show the same for performing the music of Hector Berlioz, dating back to the Munch era, in the 1950's.
Listen to the orchestra's 1960's recording of the music to a complete Midsummers Night Dream, under Erich Leinsdorf on RCA,
for a confirmation of this.
This past week performances of the Lobgesang under Bramwell Tovey,
not only added to that rich legacy, but may help insure for BSO patrons — the welcome possibility that the orchestra may program this neglected Mendelssohn masterpiece for future concerts.
Fresh from this Boston triumph, let's hope the Maestro decides to bring this wondrous work with him when he returns home to Vancouver if not for this Easter, then for Easter 2013.

UfM, CIHEAM and PRIMA meeting

Meeting between the UfM, the CIHEAM and PRIMA on Sustainable and Innovative Food Systems in the Mediterranean
10 March 2020, Union for the Mediterranean, Barcelona, Spain
On Tuesday 10 March, Mr Nasser KAMEL, Secretary-General of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) has received Mr Plácido PLAZA, Secretary-General of the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM) and Mr Octavi QUINTANA TRIAS, Director of the Partnership for Research and Innovation in the Mediterranean Area (PRIMA) in the presence of Mr Isidro GONZALEZ AFONSO, Deputy Secretary-General of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) for Water, Environment and Blue Economy at the Headquarters of the UfM in Barcelona.
Mr Isidro GONZALEZ AFONSO, Mr Octavi QUINTANA TRIAS, Mr Nasser KAMEL, Mr Plácido PLAZA (Barcelona, Spain, 10.03.2020)
The discussions focused on their current and future collaborations in the field of innovative, inclusive and sustainable food systems in the Mediterranean.
In line with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, the current partnerships and the coming joint initiatives will aim to:
Support food systems in the Mediterranean that contribute to the sustainability of food production methods and consumption patterns;
Integrate innovative practices allowing agriculture and fisheries to achieve the identified climate and environmental objectives;
Enhance research on the Nexus "Territory-Water-Food";
Invest in the education and training of vulnerable groups including young people and women in rural and agricultural areas.
Exchanges in line with the CIHEAM's strategic priorities
The exchanges were fully in line with the CIHEAM's strategic priorities.
Indeed, the development of more sustainable, more inclusive and more innovative food systems and agriculture are cross-cutting objectives of the CIHEAM strategic framework (CAPMED 2025) and for which its five bodies (General Secretariat, CIHEAM Bari, CIHEAM Montpellier, CIHEAM Zaragoza, CIHEAM Chania) provide training, capacity building, research and cooperation activities.
In May 2019, following the 2nd World Conference on the Revitalisation of the Mediterranean Diet that was held in Palermo (Italy) as an affiliated project of the United Nations ONE PLANET Programme for sustainable food systems, the CIHEAM, the FAO and the UfM have expressed their interest in setting up a joint multi-stakeholder platform on food systems in the Mediterranean.
A Memorandum of Understanding was signed between the CIHEAM and the UfM on 2 October 2014. Renewed in 2017, this agreement particularly focused on the development and the strengthening of their bilateral cooperation in the fields of higher education and research, environment and water.
The themes have recently been broadened to include related subjects such as innovations at the service of agriculture and food security, migration and mobility, climate or even the employability of young people and women empowerment in the Mediterranean.

are no components in between two firewalls, there normally is no zone serving as an efficient additional layer of defense; two firewalls connected directly do not create a zone that provides a good defense-in-depth strategy. In this case, each zone only complements the missing features of the associated zone, such that one may be a reverse-proxy while the other performs address/port filtering.
In these types of scenarios, consider if the layout of zones and use of firewalls provides optional security and manageability; a high number of firewalls itself will not necessarily improve security but certainly add complexity.
First, consider combining Microsoft Dynamics CRM with applications such as SharePoint at each zone/layer. These types of applications normally do not disturb or threaten each other, instead conforming to same layered architecture.
secure differentiated access, while separate instances can be separated into zones for also network-level security.
The architectures listed in product documentation (for example in the MSDN topic Middle Tier Architecture) defines almost all Microsoft Dynamics CRM servers together in Zone 2, but is less clear on Zone 1 – if Zone 1 is "bypassed," Zone 1 is not a zone. In general, front-end servers should always be a zone nearer to the user than are the application servers. For a more general and appropriate zone recommendation, see the MSDN topic Network Segmentation.
The best solution is to publish Microsoft Dynamics CRM (and SharePoint) through an application-aware reverse-proxy, such as Microsoft Unified Access Gateway (UAG) or Threat Management Gateway (TMG).
A good alternative is to place Microsoft Dynamics CRM (and SharePoint) front-end servers in Zone 2 with the operating system and Application layers as hardened as possible, because more protocols with fewer control enter Zone 2.

3D Printing Is a Matter of Life and Death
By Matt Petronzio 2013-09-05 11:00:27 UTC
This piece is part of Mashable Spotlight, which presents in-depth looks at the people, concepts and issues shaping our digital world.
When Kaiba Gionfriddo was born prematurely on Oct. 28, 2011, everything seemed relatively normal. At 35 weeks, his doctors' main concern was lung development, but Kaiba was breathing just fine. Doctors deemed him healthy enough to send him home within a few days.
Six weeks later, while the Gionfriddo family — parents April and Bryan, and two older siblings — were eating dinner at a restaurant, Kaiba stopped breathing and turned blue. After 10 days in the hospital and another incident, physicians diagnosed the infant with severe tracheobronchomalacia; his windpipe was so weak that his trachea and left bronchus collapsed, preventing crucial airflow from reaching his lungs. So Kaiba underwent a tracheostomy and was put on a ventilator, the typical treatment for his condition.
It didn't work. Almost daily, Kaiba would stop breathing and his heart would stop. The prognosis wasn't good. So his doctors tried something revolutionary: a 3D-printed lung splint that could save his life.
Glenn Green, MD, associate professor of pediatric otolaryngology at the University of Michigan, and colleague Scott Hollister, PhD, professor of biomedical engineering and associate professor of surgery, used 3D printing technology to create a bioresorbable device that instantly helped Kaiba breathe. It's a prime example of how 3D printing is transforming healthcare as we know it.
Green and Hollister had already developed a prototype of the 3D-printed splint, a sort of tubular scaffolding designed to fit around a patient's airway and inflate his bronchus and trachea. It was nearly ready for testing, but Kaiba needed help immediately. He rested in the intensive care unit with around-the-clock sedation, intermittently paralyzed.

Kaiba's condition is especially rare. Approximately 1 in 2,200 babies is born with tracheomalacia, in which the tracheal cartilage softens and leads to collapse. Severe cases like Kaiba's, when both the trachea and bronchus give way, comprise about 10% of that number. It's an incredibly frightening condition — even a common cold can cause a baby with tracheobronchomalacia to stop breathing.
April Gionfriddo worried the 3D splint wouldn't work, but it was the only option left to save her son. "At that point, we were desperate," she tells the University of Michigan Health System. "Anything that would work and make him live, we would take it and run with it."
She was even a little intrigued by the novelty of the procedure, saying it was almost like "science fiction."
3D printing is one of the most popular topics in the tech space now, though it isn't new. 3D printing can be traced back to the mid-1980s, when Chuck Hull invented and patented stereolithography, and founded 3D Systems, Inc. For the past 30 years, engineers have made strides with the technology, which is now used to produce everything from engineering prototypes to jewelry and housewares.
Yet while 3D printing is changing the way consumers think about mass manufacturing, a parallel revolution is only gradually entering the mainstream consciousness. Behind the scenes, doctors and biomedical engineers are experimenting with the technology, already saving and otherwise improving lives in the process.
So far, 3D printing has helped produce jaw transplants, skull implants, millions of hearing aids and a wide variety of prosthetics — for both humans and other animals. Some scientists have developed 3D printers ("bioprinters") that print layers of skin tissue, artificial blood cells, miniature human livers and even bionic ears.
Like in Kaiba's case, doctors once treated many of these instances with traditional solutions. Technicians handcrafted hearing aids and dental appliances from molds; doctors fitted prosthetics to residual limbs; patients received transplants, albeit slowly, from viable donors.
The difference is 3D printing allows for speed, efficiency and customization, three factors that can make a life-altering — hopefully life-saving — difference.
"This is a total game-changer," Green says. "It's totally different from how things were before. This is an exciting time to work in medicine."
The technology behind conventional 3D printing is fairly simple to explain. After a 3D printer reads the design you've created with computer software, it passes over a platform, much like an inkjet printer, and deposits the desired material in layers. The process varies according to the model and the size of the object, but a 3D printer typically sprays, squeezes or otherwise transfers a material onto the platform in a matter of hours.
To create Kaiba's tracheal splint, Green and Hollister obtained emergency clearance from the Food and Drug Administration. The doctors took a CT scan of his trachea and bronchus to produce a precise image, from which they could design the device. Using computer modeling software and making some modifications, they created a splint that perfectly matched Kaiba's windpipe and printed it with a biodegradable polyester called polycaprolactone.

The splint goes around the outside of the bronchus, then sutures pass through the splint to tether the trachea through the inside. This expands the bronchus and inflates the trachea. With growth, the splint opens up.
Even though Green and Hollister sized the design to Kaiba's bronchus, they crafted three or four increments of about a half a millimeter above and below the diameter from his scan. Then they made about five copies of each, just to make sure they had enough going into the operating room.
When they implanted the splint on Feb. 9, 2012 at the University of Michigan's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital, Green says it established an opening in the bronchus. Kaiba's lungs immediately started moving. He expects the device to dissolve completely within three years, when Kaiba's windpipe will have grown in the correct dimensions, big enough that it won't further collapse.
As a surgeon, Green explains that he can't match the ability of a computer specifically tailored to a patient's image.
"There are a bunch of things that I hand-carve or hand-make," he says. "My abilities are down to around a millimeter, maybe. I can get a microscope out for some small applications, but to do that in the operating room, to go sub-millimeter resolution, is not worthwhile. And I can't do it with a big case like [Kaiba's]. It'd be impossible to do."
More than for precision's sake, Kaiba's doctors turned to 3D printing because traditional treatments simply weren't working. Tracheostomies, ventilation and sedation, while sometimes successful, can pose very serious health problems to children. That's why Green and Hollister began working on an alternative, even before Kaiba was born.
"Ventilation is actually a very difficult regimen, and they usually have kids on that between one and two years," Hollister says. "There are severe complications with the ventilation, including recurrent pneumonia, and it's a very expensive treatment. Over the course of the lifetime of the child, it may cost upwards of $1 million."

The splint, in this particular case, was inserted at no cost to the Gionfriddos, since it was considered a research project. Green explains, however, that the initial price for such devices in the future will be relatively high, because of expenses associated with purchasing the 3D printer, the sterilization, etc. That said, the raw material is very inexpensive — the polycaprolactone splint costs less than $10, and it can be fashioned in about 24 hours.
"This is one of those things that starts off really expensive, and then the cost gets driven down really quickly. And I think that will happen with personal 3D printers, as well. A regular person can already afford to buy a 3D printer to put on your desk. That's amazing to me," Green says.
An iconic painting hangs at the Countway Library at Harvard Medical School. The scene shows a gaggle of physicians crowded around two patients on operating tables — one in the front room, another in the back, almost as if mirroring each other. Men in white lab coats stand outside the doorway on the right, hanging slightly past the frame, talking excitedly while pointing to their notepads. Something important is about to happen.
The painting depicts the first human organ transplant in history — a kidney, in 1954. Anthony Atala, MD, director and chair of Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine in North Carolina, projected the painting onto a screen before beginning his October 2009 TED Talk.
"We're still dealing with a lot of the same challenges as many decades ago," he shares with the audience, referencing the painting. "Certainly many advances, many lives saved. But we have a major shortage of organs."
In fact, Atala tells Mashable a patient dies every 30 seconds from diseases that could have been treated with tissue regeneration or replacement — a statistic likely to worsen over time with the aging population.
That's what he and his colleagues at Wake Forest hope to curb. Wake Forest is one of the largest facilities in the world dedicated to regenerative medicine. Its scientists were the first to engineer lab-grown organs — human bladders — which they successfully implanted into seven patients at Boston Children's Hospital in 2006.
"The bladders were individually handmade for each patient using biomaterials and the patients' own cells," Atala says. "The 3D printer we've designed is a way to scale up this process and make it more precise. Because the printer is controlled by a computer, cells can be placed in very exact locations — something that cannot be accomplished by hand."
The biomaterials Atala refers to are essentially materials compatible with the body. They can be natural (like collagen), synthetic or a combination of the two. Biomedical engineers can weave biomaterials together, or they can print them, similar to how Kaiba's doctors manufactured his splint.
As a result of this bioprinting technology, and keeping in mind that 90% of people on the transplant list are waiting for a kidney, scientists at the Wake Forest Institute 3D-printed a kidney in seven hours, using biomaterial and human cells.
Bioprinting is similar to conventional 3D printing in that it's a combination of related technologies used to print out living structures, and each one has its own process, limitations and potential achievements.
Autodesk, one of the leaders in computer-aided design software since it was founded in 1982, has worked to push innovation in 3D bioprinting for the past three years. Essentially, the company is trying to look at life as a design space.

"One of the things that makes bioprinting different from conventional printing is that the design software has to understand biology as well as the mechanical aspects of the designs," explains Carlo Quinonez, principal research scientist for Autodesk's Bio/Nano/Programmable Matter Group. "With CAD software for a conventionally 3D-printed object, you specify the design, you specify geometry — angles, distances and things like that. With bioprinting, the CAD software has to understand the biochemistry of it, too — things such as metabolism and nutrient diffusion."
While this sounds like a tall order, Quinonez says that getting CAD software to understand biochemistry is actually something he and his team have a handle on. What's really complicated is getting the software to understand what will happen to a living structure after it's printed.
"If we have a bioprinted part going directly into a person, it's going to need to [be conditioned] for some period of time before it becomes usable. The cells need a little time to recover from the printing process," he says.
Even over a period of a day or two, the structures can change — cells "settle," or begin to form bonds. Autodesk is working to simulate and predict how bioprinted structures will grow and change over time, but that's something the science community is helping them with. The team collaborates with various researchers, scientists and companies, such as Organovo, which is currently building a number of 3D tissue models for research, drug discovery applications, surgical therapy and transplantation.
To the average person, regenerative medicine and 3D printing in healthcare still seem largely experimental. Atala says this is changing, but it will take time.
"Regenerative medicine therapies are currently available to small groups of patients through clinical trials, which [can] lead to widespread approval," he says. "To ensure patient safety, we must be cautious and take things one step at a time, but I do believe that in the future patients will routinely be offered regenerative medicine therapies."
Today, the team at the Wake Forest Institute works to engineer replacement tissues and organs, and to develop cell therapies for more than 30 different areas of the body. It's currently developing a specialized 3D printer as part of the Armed Forces Institute of Regenerative Medicine, a federally funded initiative to apply regenerative medicine to battlefield injuries. In other words, this printer may be able to print skin grafts directly onto patients' wounds.
In February 2014, key patents that currently prevent competition in the market for the most advanced and functional 3D printers will expire, according to Duann Scott, design evangelist at 3D printing company Shapeways.
For Autodesk, as Carlos Olguin, head of the Bio/Nano/Programmable Matter Group, explains, it's less about patents and more about "democratizing the space in a responsible way." There's currently no standard software for 3D bioprinting, and therefore, no practical way for the community to exchange designs.
"Our efforts focus mostly around how can we scale very complex practices that require, to be truly effective, a scientist coupled with a computer scientist to be able to create value in 3D bioprinting," says Olguin. "Our goals are much bigger than the immediate intention to try to monetize or to try to do some kind of revenue opportunity in the immediate future."
Now, Autodesk is developing Project Cyborg, a platform to enable researchers and scientists to develop computational models and receive information in a more open and accessible way.
Despite no standard way to create and share designs, 3D printing is filling the holes left behind by traditional medicine.
"I think that shortages in organ donors aren't going to be alleviated anytime in the near future," Olguin says. "I think there's going to be an increased need for having replacement organs available, and bioprinting is currently the only solution on the horizon for making new adult-sized organs. There's just no other way to do it."
For adults and children like Kaiba who have no alternatives, Green and Hollister believe 3D printing will soon become the norm for specific treatments matching a patient's defect.
"Kaiba's was really the first case in which we used a device when there was no other option, and he would have died otherwise," Hollister says. "Custom applications are the wheelhouse for 3D printing, because you can take a patient's scan, you can design a device specifically for that patient and you can then build multiple copies of it. I think you'll see more dissolvable devices printed for medical use and surgical reconstruction."

Kaiba was taken off ventilator support 21 days following the splint procedure, and he hasn't had any trouble breathing since then. He still has regular and relatively close follow-up appointments at the University of Michigan. He uses a valve to talk. He's mildly delayed in physical development, which Green says is unsurprising, considering how long Kaiba was paralyzed.
But Kaiba still looks and acts like a normal kid, playing with his brother and sister and hanging out with the family dog, Bandit. He even gets himself into trouble, scooting across the floor and "getting into everything," according to his mom.
It was 3D printing technology that allowed Kaiba to become such a happily curious and healthy child, and perhaps many other children can benefit from the same innovative treatment in the future. 3D printing is more than the tchotchke on your desk — it is saving lives.

What is the mechanism of Thread Priority & Thread Scheduler? How do Threads with various priority levels behave in time-sliced and non-time-sliced environments?
Mapping of Java's 10 thread priorities to the underlying OS is platform dependent. For example, NT has 7 priorities which needs to get mapped to Java's 10 -- and you don't really know what Java priority maps to what NT priority. NT also "priority boosts" threads on occassion, which temporarily adjusts a thread's priority without you actually knowing about it. You might consider not relying on anything other than Thread.MAX_PRIORITY, Thread.MIN_PRIORITY and Thread.NORM_PRIORITY for your scheduling needs.
To answer your second question, I think you are referring to green threads and native threads. Green Threads is the cooperative thread model where the JVM handles the scheduling of threads. Native Threads is the preemptive threading model which use the OS to schedule threads. In the Green Thread model, threads only give up control if they call yield(), sleep() or make a blocking IO call. Under the Native Thread model, you never know when your thread is going to be interrupted and must code accordingly, using synchronized statements. Unless you target your code to a particular platform, you need to code such that it behaves in a cooperative as well as a preemptive environment.


A government dispensation from the Department for Transport gave West Berkshire Council (WBC) permission to configure and administrate (under civil law) a bus-lane scheme across the Kennet and Avon Canal bridge at Newbury Berks. WBC enacted the scheme via a series of crass errors that led to over 10,000 motorists being entrapped and 'charged'.
It transpires that the Transport Regulation Order for the scheme (TRO) was drafted in such a convoluted (quasi legalese) way as to negate itself, thereby failing to validate the charges levied by WBC on motorists falsely deemed in breach. When I challenged WBC in these terms, the TRO disappeared from its place on the web. On enquiry, I have been deviously directed to the second draft of the TRO – unsigned, unsealed, i.e. not a legal document. I deduce WBC is aware that the TRO is void.
When entrapment took-off apace, WBC did too little too late, even though signage and its illumination was all shambolic. It took months to creep to quasi-propriety. DfT regulations are a gift to any rapacious Council; much more could have been done had WBC been benign stewards rather than 'wheel-clampers'. I pointed out in early days, specifically, that nearby car-parks needed warning signs at exits – these (albeit 'quaintly' worded) have now, very belatedly, been erected.
Then there is the matter of designation of the bridge. Once WBC had managed to separate, in their corporate confusion, 'Parkway' (a shopping mall) from 'Park Way' (a road running from London Road towards the canal) which they did with pathetic difficulty (my PCN putting me on 'Parkway Bridge') they settled on 'Park Way Bridge' which appears on no map. Indeed, a 2015 WBC map shows quite clearly that Wharf Road runs North and South of the canal, with a nameless bridge embedded in its Northern stretch. Furthermore, 'Park Way' has its Southern extremity some distance to the North of the canal. No visitor to Newbury may adequately prepare for the 'Troll Bridge Newbury' Experience by map consultation – or even a rational guess!
In keeping with the DfT dispensation, WBC may fleece motorists under civil law. It works very nicely in their favour as the aggrieved 'transgressor' must have expensive recourse to civil courts while the Council can (and do) just 'fold' if faced with such intent. (To date, the charging travesty has not been tested in any court.) But WBC have overreached themselves in claiming (see Newbury weekly News – various dates) that they may keep any money received, on grounds that payment is proof of validity-of-charge. This is not only untrue but, by my enquiry, a CRIMINAL offence as the law has been falsely stated. I have twice asked WBC for the statute backing their assertion, receiving only flim-flam in response; a common experience.
The day will yet come when they are required to pay back all money wrongly accrued. That is when they will declare records have been shredded under data protection laws. Oh to be in England, now perversity's here.

Let go by Giants
Russell was waived by the Giants on Sunday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Russell spent the 2018 season on the Giants' practice squad. The 26-year-old was activated for Week 17 against Dallas and saw the field on 15 snaps but was unable to record a statistic. Russell made a final push for a roster spot in New York's final preseason game -- catching five of 15 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winner -- but ultimately fell short.

Makes final bid for roster spot
Russell caught five of 15 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 31-29 win over the Patriots in the preseason finale.
Analysis: Russell scored a 35-yard touchdown in the first quarter, then won the game with a 14-yard score on the final play of the fourth. The 26-year-old Toledo product is still a long shot to make the roster, but perhaps this heroic effort will convince Giants brass to keep him on board, at least while fellow wide receiver Golden Tate serves a four-game suspension to start the season.
Moves to active roster
Russell was promoted from the practice squad Saturday.
Analysis: Russell will take the place of Jawill Davis (knee) on the 53-man active roster. Davis' injury leaves the Giants without a suitable punt returner, but Corey Coleman appears set to fill in at the role while Russell will act as depth at the wide receiver position.
