Abstract In the beginning of August 2009 a long-term monitoring started in a recently built passive house near Isaszeg. The first results were presented in the last year's conference. The present paper gives an overview about a whole-year data evaluation focusing on energy consumption. During the first year of building occupancy three types of heat suppliers and two types of heat exchangers in the ventilation systems were applied and monitored, thus different heating options could be compared.

Methods of achieving successful pasture establishment have been broadened over the last 50 years by the introduction of no-tillage technologies, providing a viable alternative to cultivation. Parallel developments in drill technologies for seed and fertiliser placement, and methods to control competition from the existing pasture have ensured the success of no-tillage methods. This review focuses on the effects of the establishment method on seedling growth over the establishment period, defined for the purposes of this paper as the year after sowing. Undersowing existing pasture is the establishment method least likely to provide a suitable environment for seedling growth and development. New pastures must receive different management to existing pastures for at least 1 year after sowing to increase their chances of becoming persistent and productive. Long-term monitoring (5-10 years) of new pastures has received little research attention, making assessments of effects of different establishment methods on persistence difficult. Factors likely to affect seedling establishment and plant survival are discussed. Keywords: competition control, cultivation, directdrilling, first year management, Lolium perenne, ryegrass, seedling survival, Trifolium repens, white clover

Long term monitoring of walking in trans-tibial amputees (TTA) is considered important for prosthetic prescription and therapy evaluation. The purpose of this study was to develop a device with the following design criteria: lightweight, easy attachment to the prosthesis, energy and memory capacity for five days and practical in clinical use. The prototype (CAMP: Continuous Ambulatory Monitoring of Prosthetic walking) consists of a cylindrical unit containing an accelerometer, a miniature computer and six batteries. Specifications, data acquisition and processing, instructions for users and first results are presented and discussed. The CAMP prototype proved to be a useful device for measuring relevant aspects of prosthetic use for up to five days.

FACT is the first imaging Cherenkov telescope based on a camera using solid state photosensors (Geigermode Avalanche Photodiodes G-APD aka SiPM). Since October 2011, it has been taking data regularly. Apart from commissioning and calibration measurements, it has already started regular operation, where the main goal is to do long-term monitoring of bright TeV blazars. In June 2012, a flare of Mrk 501 was observed. Thanks to the robustness of the G-APDs, observations can be carried out during strong moon light without aging of the sensors. This improves the duty cycle of the instrument and provides better statistics for long-term light curves. The telescope, situated on the Canary Island of La Palma, is operated, already now, remotely from central Europe. For the future, robotic operation is planned. We report on our experiences during the commissioning, and we present first results from the first 1.5 years of observations.

We present the first results of a long-term monitoring program of observations in the near infrared of a selected sample of OH/IR stars included in the IRAS Point Source Catalogue. The observations have been made using the 1.5m Sanchez Magro Telescope (SMT) at Izaña (Tenerife, Spain) since the beginning of 1991 and are still in progress. They are being complemented with observations made using the 1m ESO photometric telescope (La Silla, Chile). The sample includes 30 OH/IR stars with a variety of infrared and OH maser luminosities, expansion velocities, LRS classes and position in the IRAS two-colour diagram.
