Abstract
The Measurement Lab (MLab) provides a large and open collection of Internet performance measurements. We make use of it to look at the state of the German Internet by a structured analysis, in which we carve out expressive results from the dataset to identify busy hours and days, the impact of server locations and congestion control protocols, and compare Internet service providers. Moreover, we examine the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown in Germany. We observe that only parts of the Internet show a performance degradation at the beginning of the lockdown and that a large impact in performance depends on the network the servers are located in. Furthermore, the evolution of congestion control algorithms is reflected by performance improvements. For our analysis, we focus on the busy hours. From the end-user perspective, this time is of most interest to identify if the network can support challenging services such as video streaming or cloud gaming at these intervals.

Abstract
Through an exploration of Korean high-tech social enterprises, we aim to identify and explore critically (a) how socially engaged, early stage, high technology firms combine social and economic objectives with which to scale up their ventures; and (b) how socially engaged firms seek entrepreneurial opportunity development, including the internationalisation process and the support of stake holding institutions to help scale up the value creation process. We highlight ‘people’, ‘organisations’ and the ‘environment’ dimensions, enabling an understanding of the drivers of socially entrepreneurial activity both from individual and societal perspectives. The analytical framework of our study is based on empirical data acquired from individual in-depth interviews, group interviews, active participatory observations and survey data from 2018 to 2021. We found that social motivation and objectives of the entrepreneurs are equally strong drivers and that they are the principal factors for the scaling up process. The motivation is strengthened by the proactive role of government initiatives which also attract other key stakeholders in the growth process. A combination of digital technology with a high degree of social motivation of the entrepreneurs tends to lead to the development of international market opportunities and attract the interests of international foundations.

Abstract
This book is the result of research carried out in partnership with seven European universities as part of an Erasmus+ project on training teachers of Language for Specifi c Purpose (LSP) in higher education. All university partners, i.e. Bordeaux (France), Zagreb (Croatia), Jade (Germany), Cádiz (Spain), Adam Mickiewicz (Poland), Ljubljana (Slovenia), Arcola Research (UK), and Bergamo (Italy) carried out surveys and developed a detailed report showing that in Europe there is very little training for this type of teaching, and that teachers generally need to be trained in the specifi cities of the language fi eld they are going to teach. Medical or maritime English, legal Spanish, French for tourism, etc. require both an expert domain
knowledge and a grounding in language teaching. Several testimonies highlight this situation and show the lack of career development prospects for LSP teachers at European universities.
The members of the Erasmus+ TRAILs project have therefore been interested in the specifi c needs of LSP teachers and have been able to update the information through several types of surveys. The competences
of LSP teachers were thus identifi ed. Based on this precise inventory, they are proposing to draw up a complete training programme.
A pedagogical approach has been developed: resources, lesson preparation, course design, innovative pedagogical approaches are presented. The research presented in this book goes well beyond the TRAILs project and questions the training of specialised language teachers. More generally, it highlights the need to provide effective training and professional development for LSP teachers and offers a contribution to overcoming the shortcomings of LSP teacher education.

Abstract
Im Rahmen der Studie werden wirtschaftliche St arken und Schw achen beidseits der deutsch-d anischen Grenze sowie Handlungsfelder f ur eine vertiefte Kooperation in der Grenzregion identifiziert. Es wird analysiert, welche "kritischen Massen" in der Grenzregion mobilisiert werden k onnten, um auf beiden Seiten der Grenze Schw achen zu uberwinden und die Gesamtregion im Wettbewerb um Investoren und knappe Arbeitskr afte zu st arken. Auf Grundlage einer Expertenbefragung werden Schl usselfaktoren f ur die Entwicklung der Grenzregion abgeleitet und m ogliche Entwicklungsszenarien f ur die deutsch-d anische Grenzregion modelliert. Das Autorenteam zeigt dar uber hinaus, dass die Erfahrungen und Kooperationsmodelle bereits st arker integrierten Grenzregionen Lerneffekte f ur die Institutionalisierung der Zusammenarbeit und insbesondere f ur die Ausgestaltung von Arbeitsmarktkooperationen bieten. — — The study identifies economic strengths and weaknesses on both sides of the German-Danish border as well as fields of action for deeper cooperation in the border region. It analyzes which "critical masses" could be mobilized in the border region to overcome weaknesses on both sides of the border and to strengthen the overall region in the competition for investors and scarce labor. Based on an expert survey, key factors for the development of the border region are derived and possible development scenarios for the German-Danish border region are modeled. The team of authors also shows that the experiences and cooperation models of already more integrated border regions offer learning effects for the institutionalization of cooperation and especially for the design of labor market cooperation.
