Large-scale computation without synchronisation (SyncFree)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
The goal of SyncFree is to enable large-scale distributed applications without global synchronisation, by exploiting the recent concept of Conflict-free Replicated Data Types (CRDTs). CRDTs allow unsynchronised concurrent updates, yet ensure data consistency. This revolutionary approach maximises responsiveness and availability; it enables locating data near its users, in decentralised clouds.Glob ...

Exploitation of oily wastes for the simultaneous production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and rhamnolipids (RLs) (SIMPHASRLS)
Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
In order to reduce polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) production cost we propose the simultaneous production of PHAs and other high value-added products such as rhamnolipids (RLs). The aim of the certain project is to investigate the ability of non-pathogenic bacteria to produce PHAs and RLs simultaneously. Factors that affect both biosynthetic pathways will be detected (composition and concentration of ...

CO2 - Loop for Energy storage and conversion to Organic chemistry Processes through advanced catalytic Systems (CEOPS)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
CEOPS project will focus on a sustainable approach for the production of methanol from CO2, which is a precursor for fine chemicals products. The approach will reinforce the link between large CO2 emitters and fine chemical industries at the European level. The concept relies on two chemical pathways, CO2 to CH4 and CH4 to CH3OH with the intermediate carbon vector: methane. Methane benefits from t ...
