Consortium Overview. The Consortium is led by The Numerical Algorithms Group Ltd. (NAG), Europe’s largest vendor of mathematical software. ▇▇▇ has a great deal of experience in managing European collaborations and in particular coordinated the OpenMath RTD project and is currently managing the OpenMath Thematic Network. ▇▇▇ also brings extensive experience in ad-hoc and formal standardisation activities (the Basic Linear Algebra Subset [BLAS], Fortran-90, Java Grande, MathML etc.) to the Consortium. A number of partners have been involved in the OpenMath project and bring expertise in representing mathematical semantics. Stilo Technology Ltd. is heavily involved in the wider issue of standards and protocols for the web and, along with NAG and the University of Western Ontario, has a representative on the W3C Math Working Group. ▇▇▇▇▇ has experience of the commercial application of many XML technologies and ontologies to real-world applications. The University of Manchester is a world leader in the development of the theory and application of description logics and one of the prime movers behind the DAML+OIL ontology meta- language. We believe that this combination of experience and expertise is ideally suited to the task of creating ontologies and protocols for describing mathematical problems, services and solutions. The Technical University of Eindhoven (TUE) bring expertise in integrating OpenMath with the formal structures used by logic systems and theorem provers, and of integrating computer algebra with theorem proving. They will use that expertise to develop procedures and software to help a user to navigate and understand the mathematical solution process. The University of Nice has an extensive track record in developing tools and environments for linking mathematical software packages. TUE also have experience in integrating different software packages through their novel electronic book Algebra Interactive! which now forms the basis of undergraduate mathematics courses in several universities. NAG develops and markets the visual programming language and environment IRIS Explorer which is a framework for linking components for mathematical problem solving and visualisation. This experience will be invaluable in developing the MONET infrastructure. A number of partners in this consortium are experienced in the development of mathematical software of various kinds, and will apply that expertise to the development of services. ▇▇▇ will lead the development of the numeri...

  • Project Overview With ever growing size of cities, ensuring high levels of physical security without significantly increasing the number of security personnel or budget seems to be a daunting task. A heightened sense of security and ever increasing challenges require new tactics with more access to integrated system and centralized information. This necessitates the need of designing and implementing Command and Control centers for critical infrastructure across different cities. A command and control center (CCC) in City Surveillance and Incident Response Project refers to a secure building in a government that operates as the surveillance monitoring center, coordination office and alarm monitoring center all in one. The CCC includes Video Surveillance room, Dial 100 Control room, Forensic Investigation Room, ITMS room and Data center & FMS/NOC Room. The CCC is the “nerve center” - a central administrative location from where overall assets and activities are monitored and managed. The command and control centers would be operated by State Police department. City Surveillance system would involve installation of high definition fixed and PTZ IP cameras, capable of providing optical zoom, to obtain quality video stream day in and day out for the Command & Control Center. A diversified IP based network infrastructure backbone would be deployed involving high speed fibre optics/ wireless technologies to carry video from cameras to the command and control center. The CCC would be equipped with huge video walls, workstations, video management servers and video data storage clusters of several hundred terabytes. The Command and Control Center would integrate with various security systems and sensors and enable the operators to carry out the coordinated response plans effectively. The Command & Control solution would allow the Video Surveillance Room operator/ Dial 100 operator to monitor the cameras, collect inputs, dissect information and make actionable recommendations. The system would provide configurable rules Collaborative Change Management monitoring-Feeds from various public and Capacity Building places where systems which include are already installed training of police like malls, personnel on various community centers, software's like airport and railway VMS,CCC,Dial station etc. 100,Forensic etc. Edge Equipments Network Connectivity (Cameras, Sensors, (Optical Fibre, Radio Panic Button, ITMS Communication, PRI etc.) Line, Switch etc.) with tailored alerts, dashboard visualizations, intelligent role based work flow, response tools and situation collaboration. Surveillance and Incident response project This RFP intends to select System Integrator’s who will be responsible for supply, installation, commissioning of procured items under this rate contract and FMS of Edge Equipments/items procured under this rate contract, existing items available in Abhay Command Center in 26 districts and items to be procured till project completion for this project in different cities of Rajasthan. Rate Contract for Supply, Installation, commissioning and FMS of Edge equipment’s under Surveillance and Incident Response Project in the State of Rajasthan (After Pre-bid)
