Green Paper on Bio–Preparedness–general comments–
نویسنده
چکیده
The Commission's Green Paper on Bio-preparedness represents an important signal that the European Commission is actively involved in, working on issues related to bio-preparedness across all Member States and the international Community. In 2006, the Commission held two seminars on European Bio Preparedness and a workshop on Transport and Traceability of Bio materials. The results and recommendations emerging from these discussions have been inserted in this Green Paper. The document intends to stimulate a debate within and between the Member States and to launch a process of consultation on how to reduce biological risks and to enhance preparedness and response. All the national authorities responsible for risk prevention and response, human, animal and plant health, customs, civil protection, law enforcement authorities, the military, bio-industry, epidemiological and health communities, academic institutions and bioresearch institutes are therefore called to be involved, to contribute and to improve the ability of the EU to prevent, respond to and recover from a biological incident or deliberate criminal activity.

Comments on relaxed $(gamma, r)$-cocoercive mappings
We show that the variational inequality $VI(C,A)$ has aunique solution for a relaxed $(gamma , r)$-cocoercive,$mu$-Lipschitzian mapping $A: Cto H$ with $r>gamma mu^2$, where$C$ is a nonempty closed convex subset of a Hilbert space $H$. Fromthis result, it can be derived that, for example, the recentalgorithms given in the references of this paper, despite theirbecoming more complicated, are not...
