National initiatives willing to systematically collect and present the service offerings of interest for their designated community are called to set up and operate a registry or catalogue of such services. This brief report documents the working prototype of a National Service Registry developed by EOSC-Pillar. This prototype is characterised by two distinguishing features: (i) the development of the catalogue is the result of a collaborative oriented co-creation activity and (ii) conceived tobe interoperable with the EOSC Catalogue.

Development of EOSC is influenced by the parallel development at the national and regional levels. Requirements for open data, data protection and cross border data access rely on a common understanding of existing regulations procedures in countries and their differences. This deliverable presents the legal and organisational aspects of services delivery in a federated environment and recommends actions that enable service providers to position their services for improved interoperation in the context of the EOSC services landscape. The objectives of this deliverable are: a study of the legal and policy state of the art in the involved countries, highlighting commonalities to be leveraged and gaps or challenges to be tackled in order to help harmonise and improve the national policies and strategies related to FAIR data and Open Science, proposing recommendations for the rules and procedures with respect to legal issues regarding open access and open data, proposing policy recommendations for services management, focusing on the management of service level agreements, and delivering a blueprint for EOSC which can be used by service providers as a guideline for legal aspects of service and data provisioning in a European and an international context The document sketches a policy and legal framework by building upon the existing national policies, delivers recommendations, and considers the aspects that come with agreement on service delivery in a federated IT landscape. These can help to establish a governance structure for service providers and other organisations that handle scientific data. The checklist is also available as a separate, actionable, document: interactive digital version: <strong>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6327668</strong> printable version: <strong>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6327691</strong> The recommendations are also available as a separate digital document: <strong>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6451312</strong>

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Le Linee guida per la conformit&amp;agrave; legale dei prodotti della ricerca sono state elaborate dal progetto europeo EOSC Pillar, per aiutare i ricercatori a rispettare i requisiti legali di pubblicazione, condivisione e integrazione dei dati di ricerca.&amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;\n\n&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Il documento propone una checklist, organizzata in base alle fasi fondamentali di ogni progetto di ricerca, dalla proposta fino all&amp;rsquo;attuazione e revisione, che guida il ricercatore ad affrontare le problematiche relative alla propriet&amp;agrave; intellettuale e alla gestione dei dati.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;\n\n&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Lo scopo delle linee guida &amp;egrave; quello di promuovere l&amp;#39;attuazione dei principi FAIR anche oltre il loro scopo originario e realizzare le condizioni necessarie all&amp;rsquo;attuazione delle politiche di Open Data e Open Science.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;\n\n&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Le linee guida sono valide per tutti gli Stati membri dell&amp;#39;UE.

Volumetric distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks have become one of the most significant threats to modern telecommunication networks. However, most existing defense systems require that detection software operates from a centralized monitoring collector, leading to increased traffic load and delayed response. The recent advent of Data Plane Programmability (DPP) enables an alternative solution: threshold-based volumetric DDoS detection can be performed directly in programmable switches to skim only potentially hazardous traffic, to be analyzed in depth at the controller. In this paper, we first introduce the BACON data structure based on sketches, to estimate per-destination flow cardinality, and theoretically analyze it. Then we employ it in a simple in-network DDoS victim identification strategy, INDDoS, to detect the destination IPs for which the number of incoming connections exceeds a pre-defined threshold. We describe its hardware implementation on a Tofino-based programmable switch using the domain-specific P4 language, proving that some limitations imposed by real hardware to safeguard processing speed can be overcome to implement relatively complex packet manipulations. Finally, we present some experimental performance measurements, showing that our programmable switch is able to keep processing packets at line-rate while performing volumetric DDoS detection, and also achieves a high F1 score on DDoS victim identification.

&lt;p&gt;This deliverable reports on the findings of the Use Cases analysis, with a special focus on the community requirements and on the opportunity to extend every single Use Case to other communities. The document contains a report on a first state of the art and community needs from each Use Case. The present document is the result of several months activities driven by the WP6 and centred on the analysis of the Use-cases submitted by the scientific communities involved in the EOSC-Pillar project. The main aim of the deliverable is to present &ldquo;the state of the art&rdquo; through a cross-cutting analysis in order to identify commonalities and synergies among the UCs with regards to technical requirements and needs. Finally, some options are suggested in terms of common actions and developments.&lt;/p&gt;

Methods for long-distance time and frequency transfer over optical fibers have demonstrated excellent performances and are evolving rapidly. CLONETS is a European Union-funded coordination and support action intended to facilitate the vision of a sustainable, pan-European optical fiber network for precise time and frequency reference dissemination.

Due to the economic crisis that has hit many countries in the world, Governments have reduced the budgets for research: as a consequence, public University have to reduce their expenses for both research and administration. The possibility to share resources offered by federated Clouds represents the perfect opportunity to reduce expenses for Hardware and Software resources, and at the same time to improve the collaboration between Universities. In this paper the services offered by the GARR Federated Cloud have been exploited to provide an efficient back-up system for the documentation produced by administrative office of the Vanvitelli University, which results to be cheaper and more reliable than the current NAS-based system

Time and frequency transfer based on optical fiber links techniques have demonstrated excellent performances. CLONETS is EU project intended to accelerate transfer of related technologies, in order to prepare deployment of technology for sustainable network providing high-performance clock services.

The use of precordial Doppler monitoring to prevent decompression sickness (DS) is well known by the scientific community as an important instrument for early diagnosis of DS. However, the timely and correct diagnosis of DS without assistance from diving medical specialists is unreliable. Thus, a common protocol for the manual annotation of echo Doppler signals and a tool for their automated recording and annotation are necessary. We have implemented original software for efficient bubble appearance annotation and proposed a unified annotation protocol. The tool auto-sets the response time of human “bubble examiners,” performs playback of the Doppler file by rendering it independent of the specific audio player, and enables the annotation of individual bubbles or multiple bubbles known as “showers.” The tool provides a report with an optimized data structure and estimates the embolic risk level according to the Extended Spencer Scale. The tool is built in accordance with ISO/IEC 9126 on software quality and has been projected and tested with assistance from the Divers Alert Network (DAN) Europe Foundation, which employs this tool for its diving data acquisition campaigns.
