Semantically-enabled Heterogeneous Service Architecture and Platforms Engineering or SHAPE is a project in the European Seventh Framework Program (FP7)
Project Summary
The objective of the SHAPE project is to support the development and realization of enterprise systems based on a Semantically-enabled Heterogeneous service architecture (SHA). SHA extends Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) with semantics and heterogeneous infrastructures (Web services, Agents, Semantic Web Services, P2P and Grid) under a unified service oriented approach. To achieve this the consortium of the SHAPE project will develop a Model-Driven Engineering tool-supported methodology and will take an active role in the standardization of metamodels and lanuages for SHA.

Grayson DNA is a subsidiary of Grayson USA and a method of forensic coding utilizing proprietary and patented synthetic genetic markers, covert security indicia and digital network integration technologies to form secure anti-counterfeit and brand authentication technologies.
Grayson DNA covert technologies
In practice, Grayson DNA is embedded with invisible (covert) genetic markers, micro objects, forensic data and visible (overt) indicia utilizing proprietary and patented technologies, then, encrypted digitally and integrated into a secure digital network.
Utilizing covert Digital Genetic Markers, each marker self-populates every nanosecond (a nanosecond is a unit of time representing .000000001 (10-9) or 1 billionth of a second). Grayson DNA's components selectively shift and recombine an infinite number of times to meet specific authentication and tracing requirements.
Grayson DNA’s covert Digital Genetic Markers are also used as persistent content, together acting as keys in a digital asset management system. In this fashion, any piece of Grayson DNA can lead back to the original, or "Parent". The related genetic codes link the identification to the subject and to the information within the system and ultimately, the "Parent". DNA is nearly impossible to reverse engineer and can be used in conjunction with existing methods of operation for cost-effective solutions.
Law enforcement integration
DNA Tracer is a system to aid law enforcement in tracing counterfeit items. DNA Tracer allows law enforcement to track the location from which the counterfeit item originated and the person or entity that sold it along with personal information to provide the evidence needed for successful prosecutions.
Preservation of historical records
From the moment an item is manufactured, issuers have the ability to verify and authenticate items of valuable history, directly from the source at the exact time of creation, along with secure, anti-counterfeit protection for its brand via Grayson DNA.

Psychoanalysis today
Psychoanalysis is probably the psychological theory best known by the public, and Freud is probably the best known analyst even today. However there is a myth that psychoanalysis would be old fashioned and out of date. The current psychoanalysis is not the same as it was in the time of Freud. Experiences of psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists and research into infant and child development have led to new insights. Theories have been further developed and the results of empirical research are now more integrated in the psychoanalytic theory. Nowadays, there are different forms of psychoanalysis and psychotherapies in which psychoanalytic thinking is practiced. Besides classical psychoanalysis there is for example psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Other examples of well known therapies which also use insights of psychoanalysis are Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT), and Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP). There is also a continuing influence of psychoanalytic thinking in different settings in the mental health care. To give an example: in the psychotherapeutic training in the Netherlands, psychoanalytic and system therapeutic theories, drafts, and techniques are combined and integrated.
Psychoanalytical Organizations
----
To give some insight on how much psychoanalysis is practiced nowadays, a short overview of the world's psychoanalytic organisations is given and some numbers are provided.
International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA)
The IPA is the world’s primary accrediting and regulatory body for psychoanalysis. Their mission is to assure the continued vigour and development of psychoanalysis for the benefit of psychoanalytic patients. It works in partnership with it’s 70 constituent organizations in 33 countries to support 11,500 members.
Psychoanalytical associations in the USA
There are 77 psychoanalytical organizations, institutes associations in the United States, which are spread across the states of America. The American Psychoanalytical Association (APSaA) has 38 affiliated societies, which are comprised of ten or more active members who practice in a given geographical area.
The aims of the APSaA and other psychoanalytical organizations are: provide ongoing educational opportunities for it’s members, stimulate the development and research of psychoanalysis, provide trainings to professionals and organize conferences and events. There are eight affiliated study groups in the USA (two of them are in Latin America). A study group is the first level of integration of a psychoanalytical body within the International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA), followed by a provisional society and finally a member society.
Psychoanalytical organizations in Europe
The European Psychoanalytical Federation (EPF) is the scientific organization that consolidates all European psychoanalytic societies. This organization is affiliated with the IPA. In 2002 there were approximately 3900 individual members in twenty-two countries, speaking eighteen different languages. There are also twenty-five psychoanalytic societies.
