Theoretical Background of the Research Field Sample Clauses

Theoretical Background of the Research Field. ‌ Over the past decades, scientists have made significant progress in the field of consumer science in general, and food consumer science in particular. The aim of this chapter is to give a short overview of the main achievements in this field. An important condition for efficient work is to define the area of food consumer science we are dealing with in this project. This area will be circumvented in this chapter. We will argue that our framework is delimited by the merged fields of consumer science and food market science. Moreover, we will address the issue of missing gaps: how to explore the missing gaps in food consumer sciences in the Western Balkan Countries (WBC)? An activity of FOCUS-BALKANS is to describe the State of the Art of food consumer science in the WBC’s by collecting basic data and identifying missing gaps. And besides that, a diagnosis of the “ist” (the present situation) supports the design of the “soll” (the future goals/objectives), as for example applied in Hertog et al. (2005). The process is explained in Figure 1. What I What I don’t know What others know What others don’t know Knowledge no one knows Knowledge I can transfer My missing gap Every one knows Figure 1 Identifying existing knowledge, knowledge transfer, expertise and missing gaps The main objectives of this project are to focus on the boxes “knowledge I can transfer” and “my missing gaps” from figure 1. Missing gaps can be identified by making an inventory of the chosen field of interest and compare the measured situation (inventory) with an average situation or a defined optimal situation elsewhere. The areas of interest as formulated in the official WP1 description are “consumer research” (attitudes and perceptions), “market situation” and “organizational structures”. However, this project, with the different case studies and research results will also contribute to the box “Knowledge no one knows”.

  • Research Use The Requester agrees that if access is approved, (1) the PI named in the DAR and (2) those named in the “Senior/Key Person Profile” section of the DAR, including the Information Technology Director and any trainee, employee, or contractor1 working on the proposed research project under the direct oversight of these individuals, shall become Approved Users of the requested dataset(s). Research use will occur solely in connection with the approved research project described in the DAR, which includes a 1-2 paragraph description of the proposed research (i.e., a Research Use Statement). Investigators interested in using Cloud Computing for data storage and analysis must request permission to use Cloud Computing in the DAR and identify the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) or providers and/or Private Cloud System (PCS) that they propose to use. They must also submit a Cloud Computing Use Statement as part of the DAR that describes the type of service and how it will be used to carry out the proposed research as described in the Research Use Statement. If the Approved Users plan to collaborate with investigators outside the Requester, the investigators at each external site must submit an independent DAR using the same project title and Research Use Statement, and if using the cloud, Cloud Computing Use Statement. New uses of these data outside those described in the DAR will require submission of a new DAR; modifications to the research project will require submission of an amendment to this application (e.g., adding or deleting Requester Collaborators from the Requester, adding datasets to an approved project). Access to the requested dataset(s) is granted for a period of one (1) year, with the option to renew access or close-out a project at the end of that year. Submitting Investigator(s), or their collaborators, who provided the data or samples used to generate controlled-access datasets subject to the NIH GDS Policy and who have Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and who meet any other study specific terms of access, are exempt from the limitation on the scope of the research use as defined in the DAR.

  • For Product Development Projects and Project Demonstrations  Published documents, including date, title, and periodical name.  Estimated or actual energy and cost savings, and estimated statewide energy savings once market potential has been realized. Identify all assumptions used in the estimates.  Greenhouse gas and criteria emissions reductions.  Other non-energy benefits such as reliability, public safety, lower operational cost, environmental improvement, indoor environmental quality, and societal benefits.  Data on potential job creation, market potential, economic development, and increased state revenue as a result of the project.  A discussion of project product downloads from websites, and publications in technical journals.  A comparison of project expectations and performance. Discuss whether the goals and objectives of the Agreement have been met and what improvements are needed, if any.
