Harnessing circular and carbon-sequestering local feed resources to close the nutrition gap of cross-bred dairy cattle in Uganda supported by metabolic biomarkers in blood spot samples Ghent University
In the Global South, sustainable intensification of livestock systems is considered key to help achieve severalsustainable development goals , but to do so not only animal productivity and health should be addressed but also conservation of natural resources and mitigation of climate change. Particularly, in urban and semi-urban smallholder dairy production
systems, crossbreeding is promoted as a means of sustainable intensification, but ...
Development of a forensic molecular clock to determine time of death and blood trace deposition time KU Leuven
The time and date of a person’s death are two of the major questions police detectives and investigative judges ask a forensic pathologist as it provides a specific time frame in which the investigators can base their further investigations on. The current time of death estimation techniques produce large error ranges as environmental and endogenous factors have to be taken into account. The most widely accepted and accurate model is based on ...

European Integrated Research Training Network on Advanced Cryptographic Technologies for the Internet of Things and the Cloud. KU Leuven
Summary
The goal of this ETN is to develop advanced cryptographic techniques for the Internet of Things and the Cloud and to create implementations that offer a high level of security and increased usability, for a wide range of physical computation platforms. The ITN will equip a group of 15 early stage researchers with a set of interdisciplinary skills combining mathematics, computer science and electrical engineering that will ...
Deployment Efficiency and Data Security for the Cloud KU Leuven
Software service providers increasingly adopt the cloud computing paradigm because it provides on-demand access to a nearly unlimited pool of resources. This typically entails outsourcing their computation and data to the cloud through the deployment of their software services, storing business-sensitive data, and streamlining their processes on the cloud. Two of the core challenges that the industry faces concern with (i) how to achieve ...
A framework for user centred privacy and security in the cloud. KU Leuven
Although cloud computing offers many benefits, security issues such as confidentiality and privacy are still major concerns to those intending to migrate to the cloud. Traditional cloud security has been based on assurance to customers that cloud providers follow sound security practices. As a result, current security mechanisms are commonly located within the cloud platform, hence compelling customers to trust cloud providers. However, ...
Privacy-Preserving Computation in the Cloud KU Leuven
The traditional computing paradigm is experiencing a fundamental shift: organizations no longer completely control their own data, but instead hand it to external untrusted parties - cloud service providers, for processing and storage. There currently exist no satisfactory approach to protect data during computation from cloud providers and from other users of the cloud.
PRACTICE has assembled the key experts throughout Europe and will ...
Dynamic and distributed management of Service Function Chains in a virtualized cloud and network environment. University of Antwerp
Cloud for Europe KU Leuven
Cloud for Europe (C4E) addresses the objectives of the European Cloud Partnership program. It gives a clear view on the public sector requirements and usage scenarios for Cloud Computing in Europe. The main objectives of C4E are to remove the obstacles for Cloud adoption and to harmonize the requirements from different public organisations beyond national borders. Stakeholders from industry, purchasers, government users and citizens are ...
