Joint proposal by NTT, KDDI, Fujitsu, NEC, and Rakuten Mobile adopted as Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications/NICT’s “Innovative ICT Fund Projects for Beyond 5G/6G” for social implementation and overseas expansion oriented strategic program (common infrastructure technology establishment)

TOKYO, Oct 25, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NTT Corporation, KDDI Corporation, KDDI Research, Inc. participating in research and development as a research collaborator, Fujitsu Limited, NEC Corporation, and Rakuten Mobile, Inc. were selected by the Japan-based National Institute of Information and Communications Technology to conduct newly commissioned research in FY 2024 pertaining to a strategic program oriented toward social implementation and overseas expansion (common infrastructure technology establishment) for the Innovative ICT Fund Projects for Beyond 5G/6G.Through this research and development, the above parties will develop a technology that enables users to simultaneously use multiple cloud data centers and to switch connection destinations flexibly, in addition to ensuring fault tolerance and service quality assurance through cooperation among All-Photonics Networks (hereinafter "APN") of multiple providers. We will also develop a small APN node that will enable APN deployment at rural data centers and small and medium-sized sites.In the Beyond 5G/6G era, society's informatization will accelerate further, and enormous information processing will be required. The need for APNs is growing as demand is expected to increase for the further expansion of transmission capacity and higher processing speed for existing information and communications systems, as well as for technologies that provide the lower power consumption required for carbon neutrality. Under such circumstances, discussions on providing APNs widely to society were held by Japan’s Technology Strategy Committee of the Information and Communications Technology Subcommittee of the Information and Communications Council and the All-Optical Network Common Infrastructure Technology Working Group established under this committee. As a result, the idea that it is necessary to connect multiple sites simultaneously and to have functions to collaborate among providers was expressed in the reports "Information and Communications Technology Strategy Toward Beyond 5G" (June 2024)1 and "Development Direction and Dissemination Measures for All-Photonics Network Common Infrastructure Technology" (May 2024)2. In order to develop this technology, NICT has solicited proposals for the Beyond 5G (6G) Fund Project, to which NTT, KDDI, Fujitsu, NEC, and Rakuten Mobile jointly submitted proposals.On October 22, 2024, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and NICT announced the results of their selection for the "Beyond 5G (6G) Fund Project" as a social implementation and overseas expansion oriented strategic program (common infrastructure technology establishment), and the above five companies were selected to implement the program.This research and development will enable APNs from multiple providers to cooperate to ensure fault tolerance and service quality assurance, as well as enable users to simultaneously use multiple cloud data centers and switch connection destinations flexibly. The above parties are also planning to develop a small APN node, which will enable the deployment of APNs in regional data centers and small and medium-sized sites.The following items will be addressed in this research and development:R&D Item 1: Develop overall APN architectureR&D Item 2: Research and develop common APN infrastructure technology(a) Photonic network federation technologyAPI functions for accepting communication user's requests and function for reliable and stable interconnection between APNs of various carriers according to communication user's requests (e.g. destination, communication quality).(b) Subchannel circuit exchange technologyEnables the simultaneous use of multiple clouds and data centers as well as flexible switching, when accommodating many communication users, ensuring communication quality (required bandwidth, delay, and jitter) by E2E according to the requirements of each communication user.(c)Distributed ROADM technology3An interface function that enables the simple operation of network nodes equipped with only a part of the main functions (wavelength insertion/branching and multiplexing functions) of the current ROADM, which enables the downsizing of APN nodes and the deployment of APN in rural data centers and small and medium-sized sites. It also provides a cooperation function between the ROADM node with the main functions and the downsized APN node being considered for installation.Figure 1: Overview of R&D Activities for Common Infrastructure TechnologyWhen the outcomes of this research and development are implemented in society, APNs of various providers, including different communication carriers, can be used seamlessly. For example, it will enable high-speed, low-latency simultaneous connection to multiple providers that provide AI, cloud, and other services, as well as flexible selection and switching of connection destinations. The five companies will collaborate to realize such a society.1. www.soumu.go.jp/menu_news/s-news/01tsushin03_02000402.html2. www.soumu.go.jp/menu_news/s-news/01tsushin03_02000400.html3.

风暴袭击菲律宾北部,造成 82 人死亡,但预报员警告称风暴可能回旋

(SeaPRwire) - 马尼拉,菲律宾——热带风暴特拉米于周五从菲律宾西北部吹走,造成至少 82 人死于山体滑坡和洪水,洪水迫使当局争先恐后地寻找更多救援船只来拯救数千名受困的惊恐民众,有些人被困在屋顶上。 但这场攻击可能还没有结束:国家气象预报员提出了一个罕见的可能性,即这场风暴——今年袭击菲律宾的第 11 场风暴,也是最致命的一场风暴之一——可能在下周因南中国海的高气压风而掉头返回。 菲律宾一名省级警察局长周五表示,特拉米在马尼拉以南的八打雁省引发的山体滑坡造成 49 人死亡。这使得这场风暴造成的死亡人数至少达到 82 人。 在八打雁省,还有 11 名村民失踪,马利瑙中校在电话中告诉美联社,他在塔利赛湖边小镇,站在一位村民旁边,他的妻子和孩子被埋在深厚的泥土、巨石和树木堆中。 警察使用挖掘机和铲子拼命搜寻 10 英尺(3 米)深的泥土、岩石和碎石,找到了一个头部和脚的一部分,显然是失踪妇女和孩子的遗体。 “他简直崩溃了,”马利瑙谈到这位村民,他是一位渔民,他的妻子和孩子在周四下午暴雨中发生的滑坡中被埋葬,当时他不在家,在湖中照看鱼笼。 “他处于震惊状态,说不出话来,我们只能让他指认他们卧室的位置,以便我们在那部分进行挖掘,”马利瑙说。 这场风暴最后一次被追踪到周五下午,距离菲律宾西北部伊洛科斯苏尔省以西 410 公里(255 英里),持续风速高达 95 公里/小时(59 英里/小时),阵风高达 115 公里/小时(78 英里/小时)。它正以 30 公里/小时(19 英里/小时)的速度向西北方向移动,朝越南方向移动,预计如果它按计划前进,将在周日开始袭击越南。 然而,菲律宾气象局表示,南中国海的高气压风和其他天气因素可能会迫使风暴回转,向菲律宾方向移动。 总统小费迪南德·马科斯听起来很生气,在周五与内阁成员和灾难应对官员召开的紧急会议上询问了这种可能性,讨论了对这场大范围破坏的应对措施。 “它的预测是什么?它可能返回吗?”马科斯问道。 一位政府气象预报员告诉他,特拉米可能在下周初转向菲律宾西部,但更有可能再次从菲律宾吹走,不会登陆。 “它不必登陆就能造成破坏,”马科斯说,并提到了特拉米在菲律宾引发的持续降雨。 马科斯还提到了太平洋上正在酝酿的另一场风暴,这可能会再次威胁到该国。 “哦,上帝,这就是现实,我们只能应对它,”马科斯说。 国家气象预报员乔弗伦·哈巴卢亚斯告诉美联社,特拉米可能回转引起了亚洲政府气象专家,包括来自日本的专家的兴趣,日本一直在向菲律宾提供信息,帮助追踪风暴。 这 82 人的风暴死亡人数中包括 26 名村民,他们死于受灾严重的比科尔地区的洪水和山体滑坡,该地区是马尼拉东南部的农业区和旅游目的地,因马荣火山而闻名,该火山是该国 24 座最活跃火山之一,拥有近乎完美的圆锥形。 根据马利瑙和民防办公室的数据,至少有 27 人在几个省份失踪,其中包括八打雁省的 17 人。 虽然特拉米没有增强为台风,但它在一些地区倾倒了异常强烈的降雨,包括一些地区在 24 小时内降雨量相当于一到两个月的降雨量,造成山洪暴发,淹没了社区。 纳迦市,那里有 11 人死于溺水,以及卡马利内斯苏尔省和阿尔拜省的周边省份的官员在袭击的高峰期呼吁提供更多救援船只,以到达被困在自己家高层或屋顶上的人们,因为洪水正在上涨。 在阿尔拜省马荣火山的山麓地区,泥土和其他碎石随着风暴的袭击,倾泻到附近的城镇,将房屋和汽车淹没在黑色的泥石流中。 灾难缓解官员表示,这场洪灾影响了超过 260 万人,近 32 万人逃往疏散中心或亲戚家中。 政府周五第三天关闭了学校和政府办公室,以确保数百万人在吕宋岛北部主岛的安全。岛际渡轮服务也被暂停,导致数千人被困。 在越南,国家气象预报员警告中部地区将出现强降雨。总理范明政下令沿海省份保持警惕,密切关注特拉米的路径,并为突发事件做好准备。 越南政府的一份报告显示,上个月,台风雅吉袭击了越南,造成 323 人死亡,损失价值 33 亿美元。 每年,约 20 场风暴和台风袭击菲律宾,菲律宾是一个位于太平洋和南中国海之间的东南亚群岛国家。2013 年,台风海燕是记录在案的最强热带气旋之一,造成 7300 多人死亡或失踪,摧毁了整个村庄。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Military Metals Adds Key Ground at Its West Gore Antimony Property, Signs Binding LOI to Acquire Additional Claims ACN Newswire

Military Metals Adds Key Ground at Its West Gore Antimony Property, Signs Binding LOI to Acquire Additional Claims

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 24, 2024) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTC Pink: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "Military") announces it has signed a binding LOI to acquire further claims surrounding its West Gore Antimony Project ("West Gore" or the "Project") to consolidate the mineralized area. West Gore is a brownfield project with past production, historical high-grade drill results include 7.07 metres of 10.6 gpt gold and 3.4% antimony. During a period of production, it was Canada's most prominent antimony mine.West Gore consists of four Exploration Licenses comprising 585 hectares located in Hants County, Nova Scotia, Canada, and the newly acquired ground adds 388 hectares to the immediate northwest of the Project, comprising the balance of the West Gore antimony-gold mineralized system and its historical mine workings. The Company has a three-year option to acquire a 100% interest in the licenses for $235,000 spread over the term and the sellers will receive a 3% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR") with standard buy-back provisions. It is anticipated the Company will announce the Definitive Agreement within ten days.The historical West Gore mines have a mining history dating back to 1883 and were a significant source of antimony during the First World War, most of which was shipped to England. Total production of gold and antimony between 1883 and 1917, the last recorded year of production, remains unknown. However, between 1914 and 1917 alone, nearly 32,000 metric tons were mined yielding over 7,000 metric tons of antimony concentrate grading 46% antimony. The total amount of gold recovered up to 1917 was estimated to be nearly 6,900 ounces. Aside from minor exploration work in the 1960s, the 1980s, and again over the past few years, the West Gore system remains essentially unexplored.With the acquisition of the new claims the Company has gained complete coverage over the entire mineralized system including all the historical mine workings and known antimony-gold occurrences with additional ground along trend in both directions as exhibited in Map 1 below. This in turn enables the Company to approach this antimony-gold system in its entirety to unlock future value. All relevant data are in the process of being compiled into an integrated digital database, with exploration plans to follow.Map 1: West Gore Project ClaimsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/227668_841965127489abc4_001full.jpgAntimony-gold mineralization at West Gore is hosted in graphitic and sulfide-bearing slates of the lower units of the Cambrian-age Halifax Formation that were deformed into a northeast-trending, upright, closed syncline and metamorphosed to greenschist facies during the regional Acadian orogeny. Mineralization occurs as stibnite, native antimony, aurostibnite, and antimony-gold alloys and oxides. Whereas the fold belt strikes northeast-southwest, mineralized structures trend northwest-southeast.The technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by Avrom E.

EduEdge Introduces Formula-Style Method, Changing English Mastery for Struggling Students SeaPRwire

EduEdge Introduces Formula-Style Method, Changing English Mastery for Struggling Students

With a structured, step-by-step approach, EduEdge equips students not just for exams, but for lifelong mastery of English, giving parents a proven solution for their children's learning challenges Singapore - October 25, 2024 - (SeaPRwire) - EduEdge is proud to announce its Formula-Style method, designed to transform the way struggling students master English. Despite English being Singapore's first language, many students struggle with deeper aspects of the language, such as comprehension, written expression and critical thinking. This proficiency gap affects not only their English grades but also their performance in other subjects. Research highlights a strong link between English language proficiency and academic achievement in areas like Maths and Science, underscoring the importance of mastering English for well-rounded academic success. [caption id="attachment_2690" align="aligncenter" width="800"] From left to right: Angela's mum, brother, EduEdge Founders: Edwin Edangelus Cheng and Rowena May Yue, Angela Ray Oh[/caption] Traditional teaching methods often fall short of helping students achieve true language mastery. As English is the most widely spoken language globally, this lack of holistic proficiency concerns parents who want their children to excel, not just in exams but in life. EduEdge addresses this challenge through a revolutionary approach to English education. Pioneered by founder Edwin Edangelus Cheng, EduEdge developed the groundbreaking Formula-Style method, designed to take the guesswork out of English learning. Backed by years of educational research, this structured approach goes beyond exam preparation by equipping students with the critical language skills and deep understanding necessary for lifelong success. By breaking down complex language concepts into easy-to-apply formulas, EduEdge empowers students to excel academically while mastering the communication skills essential for future professional achievements. Edwin Edangelus Cheng's personal journey resonates with many parents and students. "I once was like your child," Edwin shares, recalling his struggles with English as a student from a Chinese-speaking family. His experience and years as a public school teacher, where he taught both English and Physics, inspired him to find structured methods for language learning. "I saw how students approached learning English," Edwin explains. "They often rely on intuition without the structure or proper articulation needed for true mastery. In Physics, we see results quickly because of its formula and steps. I wondered, could the same formula-style approach work for English?" This question led to the development of EduEdge's Formula-Style method, offering a more structured and methodical way to teach and learn English. What makes the Formula-Style method different is its ability to break down English learning into easy-to-apply and easy-to-remember formulas, similar to Maths and Science. This system, known as the Total English Mastery System (TEMS), helps students learn English in a faster, smarter and more effective way. Over the past 10 years, TEMS has helped more than 3,500 students from over 150 schools across Singapore improve by at least two grades, with many achieving high Bs and As in English and General Paper (GP) exams. Students who started with borderline or failing grades found success by mastering six core language skills—Vocabulary, Grammar, Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking. The impact of the Formula-Style method is shown in the stories of students who have experienced notable success. One such example is Angela Ray Oh, who, like many others, struggled with English during secondary school and was stuck at a C6 grade despite her determination. Her breakthrough came in Sec 4 when her mum enrolled her in EduEdge. After learning structured techniques, Angela's approach to English transformed, leading her to score an A2 for her O-Levels. The benefits of these techniques extended beyond secondary school. While studying at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Angela was awarded the Lee Kuan Yew (LKY) STEP Award, a highly competitive scholarship. The application process required writing two essays within 48 hours. Drawing on the writing techniques and critical thinking skills she gained at EduEdge, Angela crafted her submissions with confidence and aced both essays and the interview, demonstrating how EduEdge's method equips students for real-world success.

HighTide Therapeutics to Present Analyses of Phase 2 MASH Study at AASLD’s The Liver Meeting 2024

HONG KONG, Oct 25, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - HighTide Therapeutics, Inc. (2511.HK), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of multifunctional multi-targeted therapies for chronic liver and metabolic diseases, will present at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases’ (AASLD) The Liver Meeting®, taking place from November 15-19, 2024 in San Diego, California. The presentations include post-hoc analyses of the Phase 2a clinical study of berberine ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801), a gut-liver anti-inflammatory metabolic modulator, in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and comorbid type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (NCT03656744).“These data provide additional characterization of the efficacy and safety of HTD1801, a novel, multifunctional therapy being developed for the treatment of patients with MASH and T2DM. If further studies confirm these findings, HTD1801 could potentially offer a more effective solution for patients who do not respond adequately to GLP-1 receptor agonists. In addition, the observations of improved GI tolerance over time suggests that HTD1801 may be an attractive option for long-term management of chronic conditions such as MASH and T2DM. The ongoing Phase 2b study (CENTRICITY, NCT05623189), fully enrolled in 1Q 2024, evaluates the histological benefit of HTD1801 in patients with MASH and T2DM. We look forward to announcing the CENTRICITY results which we expect in the first half of 2025,” said Dr. Leigh MacConell, Chief Development Officer of HighTide.“Efficacy of Berberine Ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801) Compared to Ongoing Use of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Patients with MASH and T2DM” (Abstract 3218, Poster Presented November 17th)About the Abstract: As GLP-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1RAs) are prominently used in patients with T2DM and gaining attention as a potential treatment for MASH, this post-hoc comparative efficacy analysis evaluated ongoing GLP-1RA use compared to newly initiated HTD1801 treatment. This analysis suggests that HTD1801 provides greater improvements in markers of liver injury and inflammation, glycemic control, weight loss, and lipid metabolism compared to ongoing GLP-1RA use. These findings are important as they suggest that HTD1801 could provide additional benefit to patients with MASH and T2DM, on concomitant GLP-1RA treatment.“Time Course of Onset, Incidence, and Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Adverse Events with HTD1801 (Berberine Ursodeoxycholate) in Patients with MASH and T2DM” (Abstract 3219, Poster Presented November 17th)About the Abstract: Across several indications, the most commonly occurring adverse events (AEs) in studies of HTD1801 have been mild to moderate gastrointestinal (GI) AEs, primarily diarrhea and nausea. The purpose of this post-hoc analysis was to characterize the time course and severity of GI AEs in patients with MASH and T2DM treated with HTD1801 for 18 weeks. Based on this analysis, the incidence of GI-related AEs peaks within the first 4 weeks of treatment, was mild to moderate in severity, and importantly, showed a decreasing incidence and prevalence over the course of treatment. These data demonstrate that HTD1801 is generally well-tolerated and with continued treatment, GI tolerance improves supporting its potential long-term use in chronic diseases, such as MASH.About HighTide TherapeuticsHighTide Therapeutics, Inc. (2511.HK) is a globally integrated biopharmaceutical company focusing on the discovery and development of first-in-class multifunctional multi-targeted therapies with chronic liver and metabolic diseases with significant unmet medical needs. The company is developing multiple clinical assets, including therapy for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG), and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Berberine ursodeoxycholate (HTD1801), the company’s lead drug candidate, received Fast Track designation from the U.S. FDA for both MASH and PSC, as well as Orphan Drug designation for PSC. In China, HTD1801 has been included in the National Major New Drug Innovation Program under the 13th Five-Year Plan for Major Technology Project.For more information, please visit www.hightidetx.com Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

侨雄国际否认媒体操纵股价质疑 称价格波动是市场对公司未来预期反应

香港, 2024年10月25日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 针对公司近日股价持续上涨,引发媒体质疑涉嫌操纵股价的报导、侨雄国际(00381.HK)今日盘后发布公告称,经公司董事会作出一切合理查询后所知、所悉及所信,董事会坚决否认媒体报导中包含的猜测,并认为报导事项不准确且具有误导性。侨雄国际在公告中进一步指出,公司已经谘询其法律顾问,将会作出进一步行动。此外公司向负责传播误导性及恶意陈述,恶意沽空从而获益的有关实体及╱或相关个人及任何人,导致的损害或其他补偿,保留采取法律行动之权利。10月22日,有媒体发布题为《16个交易日翻了近30倍,侨雄国际(00381)全靠两个"经纪商"雄起?》,指出截至10月21日,中国北方证券和长桥证券两个经纪商近20个交易日分别净买入了0.92亿股和0.27亿股,持股比例分别为14.02%及3.42%,而其他经纪商仅有少量买入,由此质疑公司股价存在被操纵的嫌疑。侨雄国际执行董事兼联席主席李立中对媒体回应称,价格的波动是市场对公司未来预期的反应,是正常的市场行为。首先,乘著近期港股的升浪,很多公司股票都有明显的升幅。加上公司近来管理层的变动,委任了有丰富资历以及管理经验的董事,这些可被股东看作利好消息,公司股价上涨表示股东对公司前景乐观。二零二四年十月四日,侨雄国际委任李立中为执行董事兼联席主席。李立中长期从事人工智慧、元宇宙、智联网路、区块链科学研究,这些领域的研究成果不仅推动了科技进步,而且为人类的生活带来了巨大的改变。其工作成果向世界展示了中国科学家的智慧和实力,也为中国在科技领域的发展做出了重要贡献。侨雄国际表示,国家"十四五"规划中提出迎接数字时代,启动数据要素潜能,推进网络强国建设,加快建设数字经济、数字社会、数字政府,以数字化转型整体驱动生产方式、生活方式和治理方式变革。基于"十四五"规划所带来的数字化新浪潮,各行各业将获得更多发展机遇,面对中国社会经济发展新阶段、新特征,公司未来将专注于深化现有业务开发及运营,向数字媒体经销等方向稳定发展,丰富业务的多元化结构,使得公司更加稳步向前。侨雄国际在公告中表示,董事会经作出在相关情况下有关公司的合理查询后,董事会确认,其并不知悉导致价格或成交量波动的任何原因,或任何必须公布以避免公司证券出现虚假市场的资料。李立中强调,该报导仅凭市场交易券商名字片面的指责怀疑公司操纵市场,期间并未与上市公司做任何的沟通与确认,是典型恶意沽空的犯罪行为。公司会对其新闻前恶意做空行为和新闻后操纵市场行为发出律师函和诉讼,以维护广大投资者权益。前述媒体报导称,"侨雄国际基本面并不好,公司主要从事玩具及礼品制造及销售、天然资源勘探、水 果种植、休闲及文化及中草药多种业务,业务表现平淡,业绩收入已经连续两个半年度下行,且盈利能力持续下降。今年该公司业务模式并未有重大变化,唯一变化是在10月10日,拟将公司名称更名为权识国际集团(中文名称)。"侨雄国际近期发布公告,拟将公司名称更改为"AOM International Group Company Limited",并采用"权识国际集团股份有限公司"作为其第二中文名称。据悉,集团的业务有六大可呈报分类,由于各业务均有不同的经济特征,因此各业务被分开管理。对此李立中表示,侨雄国际更名为权识国际。未来会通过相关专利技术对公司各板块业务做全方位的数位经济转型,通过生产资料的标识化,为公司的各个板块注入新的价值与活力。因此引发股价上涨和投资者购买属于正常市场现象。李立中指出,目前侨雄国际的资金状况非常健康,公司管理层对公司发展的前景保持绝对的乐观态度,会考虑在未来继续增持公司股票,以带给市场及公司股东信心,稳定因为不实报道,故意抹黑而影响的公司股价。关于后续的业务安排,公司会按照上市公司管理要求走合规的业务流程正常公告披露。公司谨提醒公司股东及潜在投资者,关注公司于联交所网站(http://www.hkexnews.hk/index.htm) 。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.
