PROJECT AIMED AT OPTIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION TECHNOLOGIES

Open technologies for monitoring systems aimed at disaster risk reduction

This research is spearheading the integration of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and Open Source Hardware (OSHW) in the field of agri-meteorology applications to disaster risk reduction, flood and droughts. A Do-It-Yourself weather station based on OSHW standards has been developed from local sources in Sri Lanka, reporting by SMS to tank/reservoir managers when rainfall is higher than 10m...

Technologies for lake restoration

Lakes are suffering from different stress factors and need to be restored using different approaches. The eutrophication remains as the main water quality management problem for inland waters: both lakes and reservoirs. The way to curb the degradation is to stop the nutrient sources and to accelerate the restoration with help of in-lake technologies. Especially lakes with a long retention time ...

Emerging Technologies Project : Cluster Technologies

The purpose of the Emerging Technologies project to which this work belongs, is to compare the applicability of cluster computers to various problems to that of conventional supercomputers. This article details the rewriting of an existing Particle-In-Cell electrostatic simulation code targeted at SMP computers to a message-passing approach, and a comparison of the results obtained when running...
