Australia possesses the highest diversity of seagrasses and the most extensive seagrass meadows world-wide. Unfortunately, Australia also has claim to some of the most significant declines of this habitat over the last 50 years. Seagrass in Australia reflects the shift from viewing seagrass species or even habitats as separate unconnected entities. Instead, it views them as components of larger ecosystems which incorporates the author's aim to develop a comprehensive, ecosystem based management plan.

Telecommunications and Internet Technologies have evolved dramatically during the last decade, laying a solid foundation for the future generation of Ubiquitous Internet access, omnipresent Web technologies and ultimate automated information cyberspace. Ubiquitous computing has been investigated since 1993. As a result, current efforts in research and development in the areas of Next Generation Internet and Telecommunications Technologies promote the formation of inter-disciplinary international teams of experts, scientists, researchers and engineers to create a new generation of applications and technologies that will facilitate the fully-automated information cyberspace systems, such as Future House 2015. The authors discuss the current state-of-the-art in the world of Telecommunications and Internet Technologies, new technological trends in the Internet and Automation Industries, E-manufacturing, Ubiquity, Convergence, as well as the concept of the Fully-automated Future House 2015, the 2006 Web Report with the Microsoft project on Easy Living, while promoting research and development in the interdisciplinary projects conducted by multinational teams world-wide.


The fast-neutron breeder reactor is the principal means now envisaged of exploiting the very large resource of energy residing in the naturally abundant isotope of uranium , 238 U. Extensive research and development programmes are being carried out in a num ber of countries to realize this potential. There are about a dozen substantial reactors operating; and wide-ranging supporting programmes include fuel processing and development, and safety and environmental issues. The purpose of this Discussion Meeting is to present the principal recent scientific and engineering results of these world-wide program m es; and, in the final session, to discuss the future trends in this research and its utilization.

As the reader of this journal know, the effective communication of technological research and development is causing world-wide concern. Should scientists and engineers be selective in reporting technology? Can standards be set up for selectivity? What is the responsibility of the technical press? These and other problems are discussed by the authors of this illuminating report originating from Wroclaw Technical University, Poland.
