Failure management for cost-effective and efficient spacecraft Operation

The first two and a half years of Columbus Operation have been analysed to assess the efficiency of the failure management system. The assessment took into account two aspects. The first aspect was the fulfilment of the failure management functions as they have been specified in the requirements document. The second aspect covered the spacecraft operation. How did the failure management meet the operational needs?
A Principled Infotheoretic φ-like Measure

Integrated information theory is a mathematical, quantifiable theory of conscious experience. The linchpin of this theory, the $\phi$ measure, quantifies a system's irreducibility to disjoint parts. Purely as a measure of irreducibility, we pinpoint three concerns about $\phi$ and propose a revised measure, $\psi$, which addresses them. Our measure $\psi$ is rigorously grounded in Partial Information Decomposition and is faster to compute than $\phi$.

Omnichannel principle is the integration of data across all customer communication channels in order to make the company get a 360 o view of the customer or "single customer view". Data integration allows customers to interact with the company through any channels without having to resubmit any information when the customers switch between channels. Single customer view provides personalized services to customers based on profile, activities, behavior
Advances in genomic sequencing using Bovine SNP BeadChip in Deer

DOI: 10.15414/afz.2014. 17.02. 65–71 Received 20. February 2014 ǀ Accepted 7. March 2014 ǀ Available online 23. June 2014 The aim of this work was to describe the progress made in particular area and summarizes a variety of SNPs discovery and genotyping studies in deer species. Increased interest of breeding of other animal species than traditional livestock has been recorded in recent years. One of these is also “deer livestock”. Deer ( Cervidae ) is currently one of attractive species farmed in many countries as well as one of wild game animal used. Deer species as non-model organisms therefore do not have a large scale genomic sequence and adequate supporting tools to determine genetic markers for associations with traits of interest. Identification and understanding of loci that explain fitness variation is one of the crucial problems for application of molecular-based animal breeding to predict performance with the potential of increasing genetic improvement. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are growing in popularity as genetic markers not only investigating evolutionary processes but also for analyses of quantitative trait loci and candidate genes. SNPs have gained wide use in model species and are becoming the marker of choice for applications in other species. Technology that was developed for work in model species may provide useful tools for SNPs detection and genotyping in non-model organisms. Keywords: Cervidae , SNPs, non-model organisms, genetic markers
Recognising Hiragana Characters Using Optical Character Recognition

Optical character recognition (OCR) has become more and more common technology, be it automated teller machines (ATM), office scanners or the scanners used at stores. In addition to that the automated recognition of handwritten characters is commonly studied problem in Computer Vision and has several applications in real life. This project focuses on recognising handwritten Japanese hiragana characters using an open source computer vision library OpenCV[1]. It also creates an application that adds pronunciations to detected hiragana characters with relatively high accuracy.
Investigating the Relationship between Work- Life Balance and Employee Engagement among Flight Attendants

Work-life balance and employee engagement have become two considerable concepts that capture the attention of both academics and practitioners. The prime concern of this paper is to examine the relationship between work-life balance and employee engagement among flight attendants in Egypt. The study focuses on the positive side of work life balance (work life polices and supervisor support) and how they sustain employee engagement. Primary data was conducted using a questionnaire survey of flight attendants in Egyptian airlines. The findings indicated that both work life balance policies and supervisor support were positively correlated with the job engagement of the Egyptian flight attendants. The study proved also that the supervisor support effect on the employee engagement was higher than the effect of work life policies. Based on these results, this study can be concluded that work life balance had a positive significant impact on the engagement of the Egyptian flight attendants. Finally, this study concludes by discussing managerial implications and providing suggestions for future research.
Effects of Invasive-Plant Management on Nitrogen-Removal Services in Freshwater Tidal Marshes

Establishing relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem function is an ongoing endeavor in contemporary ecosystem and community ecology, with important practical implications for conservation and the maintenance of ecosystem services. Removal of invasive plant species to conserve native diversity is a common management objective in many ecosystems, including wetlands. However, substantial changes in plant community composition have the potential to alter sediment characteristics and ecosystem services, including permanent removal of nitrogen from these systems via microbial denitrification. A balanced assessment of costs associated with keeping and removing invasive plants is needed to manage simultaneously for biodiversity and pollution targets. We monitored small-scale removals of Phragmites australis over four years to determine their effects on potential denitrification rates relative to three untreated Phragmites sites and adjacent sites dominated by native Typha angustifolia. Sediment ammonium increased following the removal of vegetation from treated sites, likely as a result of decreases in both plant uptake and nitrification. Denitrification potentials were lower in removal sites relative to untreated Phragmites sites, a pattern that persisted at least two years following removal as native plant species began to re-colonize treated sites. These results suggest the potential for a trade-off between invasive-plant management and nitrogen-removal services. A balanced assessment of costs associated with keeping versus removing invasive plants is needed to adequately manage simultaneously for biodiversity and pollution targets.
Natural killer cells target HCV core proteins during the innate immune response in HCV transgenic mice

The mechanism of the innate immune response to hepatitis C virus (HCV) has not been fully elucidated, largely due to the lack of an appropriate model. We used HCV transgenic (Tg) mice, which express core, E1, E2, and NS2 proteins regulated by the Cre/loxP switching expression system, to examine the innate immune response to HCV structural proteins. Twelve hours after HCV transgene expression, HCV core protein levels in Tg mouse livers were 15–47 pg/mg. In contrast, in Tg mice with a depletion of natural killer (NK) cells, we observed much higher levels of HCV core proteins (1,597 pg/ml). Cre‐mediated genomic DNA recombination efficiency in the HCV‐Tg mice was strongly observed in NK cell‐depleted mice between 0.5 and 1 day as compared to non‐treated mice. These data indicated that NK cells participate in the elimination of core‐expressing hepatocytes in the innate immune responses during the acute phase of HCV infection. J. Med.

Reliability of Ankle Isometric, Isotonic, and Isokinetic Strength and Power Testing in Older Women

Background Ankle strength (force-generating capacity) and power (work produced per unit of time or product of strength and speed) capabilities influence physical function (eg, walking, balance) in older adults. Although strength and power parameters frequently are measured with dynamometers, few studies have examined the reliability of measurements of different types of contractions. Objective The purpose of this study was to examine relative and absolute intrarater reliability of isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic ankle measures in older women. Design This was a prospective, descriptive methodological study. Methods The following dorsiflexion (DF) and plantar-flexion (PF) measures were assessed twice (7 days apart) by the same examiner in 30 older women (mean age=73.3 years, SD=4.7): isometric peak torque and rate of torque development (RTD), isotonic peak velocity, average acceleration and peak power, and isokinetic peak torque and peak power (30°/s and 90°/s). Several statistical methods were used to examine relative and absolute reliability. Results Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) for the DF tests (ICC=.76–.97) were generally higher than ICCs for matched PF tests (ICC=.58–.93). Measures of absolute reliability (eg, coefficient of variation of the typical error [CVTE]) also demonstrated more reliable values for DF tests (5%–18%) compared with PF tests (7%–37%). Isotonic peak velocity tests at minimal loads were associated with the lowest CVTE and ratio limits of agreement values for both DF (5% and 14%, respectively) and PF (7% and 18%, respectively). Isometric RTD variables were the least reliable (CVTE=16%–37%). Limitations This study was limited to a relatively homogeneous sample of older women. Conclusions Test-retest reliability was adequate for determining changes at the group level for all strength and power variables except isometric RTD. Minimal detectable change scores were determined to assist clinicians in assessing meaningful change over time in ankle strength and power measurements within individuals.
Non-Executive Directors: Moving beyond the ‘One-size-fits-all’ View1

The perfect non-executive, or director, may not exist. Instead, individuals may perform different roles depending on their abilities. Four distinct roles are identified, but how can the right mix be obtained? This paper explores the roles and performance of non-executive directors. This is a timely subject, given the current economic downturn and significant array of corporate collapses world-wide across the last year, so the first section of the paper briefly sets out the scene against which these issues are being considered.

DEMAND ANALYSIS OF THE OSING COMMUNITY FOR FIRST LEVEL HEALTH FACILITY SERVICE AT THE NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM

The outpatient and hospitalizations visits was low in Banyuwangi, Indonesia indicate that community demand to health services still low. The purpose of this study was to analyze the osing community demand for fisrt level health facility (FLHF) services at the National Health Insurance Program. Type of this research was analytic using cross sectional approach. The population in this study was the family in Kemiren and Olehsari village, Banyuwangi, Indonesia many as 2,026 households. The sample in this study as much as 60 households (300 family members). Multivariate data analysis using multiple logistic regression test. The results showed that there were two factors that affect demand for health service was a education level and knowledge factor (α <0.05). The factors that most influence to the demand for health services was a knowledge factor. Based on Osing community demand for first level health facility service then the number of fisrt level health facility in Glagah District was already enough. While based on the number of Osing community who participated National Health Insurance members then the number FLHF in Glagah District was already enough. The conclusion, the higher education level and knowledge of the community, the higher demand for health services.
Characterization of a complex chemosensory signal transduction system which controls twitching motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Virulence of the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa involves the coordinate expression of a wide range of virulence factors including type IV pili which are required for colonization of host tissues and are associated with a form of surface translocation termed twitching motility. Twitching motility in P. aeruginosa is controlled by a complex signal transduction pathway which shares many modules in common with chemosensory systems controlling flagella rotation in bacteria and which is composed, in part, of the previously described proteins PilG, PilH, PilI, PilJ and PilK. Here we describe another three components of this pathway: ChpA, ChpB and ChpC, as well as two downstream genes, ChpD and ChpE, which may also be involved. The central component of the pathway, ChpA, possesses nine potential sites of phosphorylation: six histidine‐containing phosphotransfer (HPt) domains, two novel serine‐ and threonine‐containing phosphotransfer (SPt, TPt) domains and a CheY‐like receiver domain at its C‐terminus, and as such represents one of the most complex signalling proteins yet described in nature. We show that the Chp chemosensory system controls twitching motility and type IV pili biogenesis through control of pili assembly and/or retraction as well as expression of the pilin subunit gene pilA. The Chp system is also required for full virulence in a mouse model of acute pneumonia.
Role of Leadership in Business Model Innovation: A Case of an Entrepreneurial Firm

This paper explores the relationship between leadership and business model innovation in an entrepreneurial firm. The literature shows that, the role of leader in Business Model Innovation is important and unexplored phenomenon. A model is created which is the replication of the model depicting relationship between leadership and innovation. The case on an entrepreneurial firm is used to understand this phenomenon and the model. The leader of an animation firm has been observed closely. The leader, his partners and employees of the firm has been interviewed multiple times. The findings and analysis show that, in this organization, leader is a trigger for Business Model Innovation but this case fails to find his influence in the process or execution of Business Model Innovation.
FREQUENCY‐DEPENDENT SOCIAL DOMINANCE IN A COLOR POLYMORPHIC CICHLID FISH

A mechanism commonly suggested to explain the persistence of color polymorphisms in animals is negative frequency‐dependent selection. It could result from a social dominance advantage to rare morphs. We tested for this in males of red and blue color morphs of the Lake Victoria cichlid, Pundamilia. Earlier work has shown that males preferentially attack the males of their own morph, while red males are more likely to win dyadic contests with blue males. In order to study the potential contribution of both factors to the morph co‐existence, we manipulated the proportion of red and blue males in experimental assemblages and studied its effect on social dominance. We then tried to disentangle the effects of the own‐morph attack bias and social dominance of red using simulations. In the experiment, we found that red males were indeed socially dominant to the blue ones, but only when rare. However, blue males were not socially dominant when rare. The simulation results suggest that an own‐morph attack bias reduces the social dominance of red males when they are more abundant. Thus, there is no evidence of symmetric negative frequency‐dependent selection acting on social dominance, suggesting that additional fitness costs to the red morph must explain their co‐existence.
Customer Engagement in a Big Data World

This paper aims to propose that the literature on customer engagement has emphasized the benefits of customer engagement to the firm and, to a large extent, ignored the customers’ perspective. By drawing upon co-creation and other literature, this paper attempts to alleviate this gap by proposing a strategic framework that aligns both the customer and firm perspectives in successfully creating engagement that generates value for both the customer and the bottom line. ,A strategic framework is proposed that includes the necessary firm resources, data, process, timeline and goals for engagement, and captures customers’ motives, situational factors and preferred engagement styles. ,The authors argue that sustainability of data-driven customer engagement requires a dynamic and iterative value generation process involving customers recognizing the value of engagement behaviours and firm’s ability to capture and passing value back to customers. ,This paper proposes a dynamic strategic value-creation framework that comprehensively captures both the customer and firm perspectives to data-driven customer engagement.
Austerity, policy and sport participation in England

ABSTRACT This study seeks to understand participation levels in sport across socio-demographic groups, specifically for the period 2008–14, in the context of austerity measures taken by central government resulting in local authority income and expenditure reductions. Participation levels over time were analysed using data from the Active People Survey (APS), which was the preferred method for measuring participation by Sport England until its replacement in 2015. Budgetary constraints in local authorities have subsequently resulted in an expenditure decrease for non-discretionary services including ‘sport development and community recreation’. This area of expenditure forms one component of sport-related services and primarily focuses on raising participation in ‘hard-to-reach’ groups. The study found that policy goals associated with raising and widening participation were not met to any significant degree between 2008 and 2014 as participation levels have changed little for lower income ‘hard-to-reach’ groups. It is claimed that this outcome is in part due to austerity measures impacting on local authority expenditure. This study has implications for policymakers and practitioners as it illustrates both the challenges faced in setting and delivering policy aimed at raising participation levels in ‘hard-to-reach’ groups, particularly in the context of austerity, and the difficulties associated with measuring participation.
Exploring the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM): Impact on innovation ecosystem in India

To make India one of the leaders in solar energy generation and to promote ecologically sustainable growth that addresses the nation’s energy security challenge is one of the promising goals of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) or National Solar Mission. This paper presents the country’s current solar energy scenario and explores ways in which various actors, agencies and policies shape the mission from the different perspectives on innovation literature. Innovation ecosystem is one of the perspectives where the sense of environment or ecology of various institutions, actors and other factors surrounds the activity of research and innovation. In this ecosystem, there is no single actor that can perform independently. The research outcomes, especially the patents, research publications and R&D investment, have become an increasingly essential area after the announcement of the JNNSM. The study also highlights that the number of research papers published in relation to solar energy has increased and there is a significant presence of productive R&D institutions, universities and supportive policy initiatives in the country.
Privacy protection in explicit feedback system with CHUD mining

This paper proposes an advanced method for providing privacy protection in explicit feedback system. At present the usage of search engine are increased rapidly because of the huge websites and data. The main purpose of search engine is to provide appropriate result to the user according to their requirements. Although it provide relevant information to the users but it doesn't provide any security for user profile. So there is a possibility for the leakage of users profile details. During search time they are worried for the leakage of their private information. Many method are available to avoid such a situation but its main drawback is all based on server side protection. Here introduced a client side technique called user customizable privacy search procedure (UPS) using Greedy algorithms for minimizing the privacy risk. We present two greedy algorithms, namely GreedyDP and GreedyIL, for runtime generalization of user profile. Here introduced a closed high utility method, which is used to find the most used items in a profile tree in terms of the cost function of transaction and privacy is applied based on it. The system is experimentally checked by constructing a Profile tree from a web environment and testing queries in it. At last an evaluation is also done with GreedyDP and CHUD GreedyDP.
Platelet HDL 3 binding sites are not related to integrin a IIb b 3 ( GPIIb – IIIa )

Early studies considered that fibrinogen receptor (glycoprotein [GP] IIb–IIIa or platelet integrin aIIbb3) is the binding site for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein type 3 (HDL3). Recent data, however, do not support the hypothesis that the binding of LDL to human intact resting platelets is related to integrin aIIbb3. In this study we present evidence that platelet integrin aIIbb3 is also not involved in the interaction of HDL3 and human intact resting platelets. Firstly, specific ligands for platelet integrin aIIbb3, such as fibrinogen, vitronectin, von Willebrand factor and fibronectin, were unable to inhibit the binding of HDL3 to intact resting platelets. Secondly, the HDL3 binding characteristics (Kd and Bmax values), the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and the inhibition of thrombin-induced inositoltriphosphate (IP3) formation and calcium (Ca ) mobilization mediated by HDL3 particles were similar in platelets from control subjects and patients with type I and type II Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia, which are characterized by total and partial lack of GPIIb–IIIa and fibrinogen, respectively. In contrast, nitrosylation of tyrosine residues of HDL3 by tetranitromethane fully abolished both the ability of particles to interact with its specific binding sites and the functional effects. Thirdly, polyclonal antibodies against the GPIIb–IIIa complex (edu-3 and 5B12), human antiserums against platelet alloantigens (anti-Bak and anti-PL), anti-integrin subunits (anti-aV and anti-b3), and a wide panel of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against well-known epitopes of GPIIb (M3, M4, M5, M6, M8 and M95-2b) and GPIIIa (P23-7, P33, P37, P40, and P97) did not affect the binding of HDL3 particles to human intact resting platelets. Overall results show that neither the GPIIb–IIIa complex nor GPIIb or GPIIIa individually are the membrane binding proteins for HDL3on intact resting platelets. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
