Research Framework. Decision support increasingly requires the ability to manage, combine and use information from heterogeneous sources.. Figure 3.1 depicts framework for decision support based on four pillars related to semantic interoperabil- ity, GIS interoperability, query processing and P2P architectures. In the following, the main characteristics and issues of the four pillars is presented.

Research Framework. In my thesis I am studying why European nations have created new sub-regional MDCs and have re-energized old ones in the last couple of years, instead of using the existing NATO and EU institutional frameworks for military collaboration. To conduct my research I apply the multiple-case study research method elaborated by Xxxxxx X. Xxx, who distances this approach from the classical survey based concept of case studies and adapts the logic of the experimental method. Based on this approach, I investigate three cases – the British-French ‘Lancaster House Treaties’, the Nordic Defence Co-operation, and the Central European Defence Co-operation – by testing three rival explanations using the method of pattern matching, which means that I generate predicted patterns regarding the studied phenomenon and compare them to empirically based patterns. The three rival explanations which I will compare regarding the creation of new sub-regional MDCs are 1) the lack of progress on pan- European/Transatlantic defence cooperation 2) the impacts of the financial crisis, 3) different emerging shared threat perceptions of European states.
Research Framework. For conducting a research at Vestbase we have followed the framework shown in figure 1-
Research Framework. This section aims at presenting and discussing the Research Framework (RF) by introducing different dimensions of work and organization influenced by XxXXX. We can represent such influence as a multi-dimensional space, characterised at least according to: D1: object (unit of analysis) D2: phase in the life-cycle of the object D3: geographical location D4: digital technology adopted and used by the object D5: strength of organizational ties D6: size of the object D7: industrial sector To clarify how this RF can be applied we provide an example for each level of analysis that the framework is taking into consideration: L1 – an individual; L2 – an organization. Example of application of the RF to L1 D1: object (unit of analysis): an individual (L1) • D1.1 competence profile
Research Framework. The general research framework, which will be the base for the outline of the research plans in WP5 is illustrated in Figure 9. To take a closer look at the fruit and diet balance situation in all of the six participating WBC countries an insight in the (interaction between) market actors and consumers is needed. Without consumers there will be no consumption, but without the market there’s nothing to consume at all. The different parts of the model are presented visually below. FP7 KBBE 2007 1 GA 212579 Figure 9 WP5 General Research Framework FOCUS-BALKANS DL 1.2 Description of State of the art of the theoretical approaches methods market and consumer studies already available for the Balkans.doc The characteristics in e.g. trends, innovation and communication, of the market are based on indicators that describes performance that influence consumers fruit choice. Concerning the market, we look briefly at developments in the fruit sector to come to a overview of the fruit sector and give an insight in the Balkan producing fruit industry and their market expectations. In order to remain licenced to operate (to survive) market actors have to anticipate and act upon current situation. They carefully watch developments within, have knowledge, and we are going to discuss these with relevant experts to reveal the needed overview. Topics for discussion during the interviews are current and future situation, elements of a SWOT and the marketing-mix and their interaction with consumers. Examples of questions: “ Is the fruit sector competitive in terms of new products?” , “Do the market actors anticipate new trend's?”, or “How do they act upon current competitive situations?”, As can be seen from Figure 9 a lot of aspects are relevant regarding consumer food consumption choices. The total palette holds more topics than can be subject of research. We therefore focus on the exploration of motivations and barriers as the background of consumption and purchase of fruit, and the position of fruit in a well-balanced diet and intend identify the role and barriers to fruit consumption and consumer characteristics in relation to nutrition. To this end, an (in-dept) insight in the perception of consumers is needed. The perception of consumers, is based on a stimulus which is differently perceived according to the consumer characteristics, time and situation. Examples of questions: “Which kind of fruit do they prefer in which situation” , “Do the consumer think he has a health...

  • 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.
