A Patient-Centric Approach for Intelligent Privacy Policies Generation in Mobile Healthcare

Mobile technologies are changing the way patients are receiving care services. Thanks to mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and patient monitoring devices, patients are integrated in managing their own health, real time patient information is easily provided to physicians and patient-physician communication becomes easier. Nevertheless, although mobile healthcare offers many benefits, there is also a downside to using these mobile technologies. Privacy is among the primary issues to address. In fact, patients become more and more concerned about “what happen” to their data while being exchanged with third parties. In this paper, we focus on privacy concerns in mobile healthcare. We introduce an approach to preserve patients’ privacy in Mobile Healthcare named PPIAMH. This solution aims to get patients involved in defining their privacy preferences regarding the disclosure of their sensitive medical information based on an intelligent mobile application and access control mechanisms. Different aspects of our solution are illustrated by a real world scenario that evinces how patients’ privacy policies are defined using the suggested approach.
A Conceptual Framework for Linked Open Islamic Knowledge

The Linked Open Data (LOD) approach has emerged as the de facto standard for sharing and publishing the data on the web. The domain of Islamic knowledge, in particular, and religious knowledge, in general, has failed to cache upon the promised potential of the semantic web and the linked data technology; web-scale integration of these knowledge resources is currently not facilitated at a large scale. This paper presents the emerging vision and the need for Linked Open Islamic Knowledge, its requirements and foundations. The important challenges and limitations of the existing research landscape are highlighted in an attempt to analyze why it fails to meet the requirements of meeting the vision at hand. A conceptual framework that would functionally fulfill the Islamic LOD vision is presented. A brief insight is also provided to hint at the need and the role of Human Computation & Crowdsourcing (HC&C) methods and how they may facilitate the realization of the proposed vision.
A Comprehensive Comparison between Wave Propagation and Heat Distribution via Analytical Solutions and Computer Simulations

Wave propagation and heat distribution are both governed by second order linear constant coefficient partial differential equations, however their solutions yields very different properties. This study presents a comprehensive comparison between hyperbolic wave equation and parabolic heat equation. Issues such as conservation of wave profile versus averaging, transporting information, finite versus infinite speed propagation, time reversibility versus irreversibility and propagation of singularities versus instantaneous smoothing have been addressed and followed by examples and graphical evidences from computer simulations to support the arguments.
A high-elevation Holocene pollen record from Iztaccihuatl volcano, central Mexico

Pollen data from 3860 m in the Agua El Marrano valley on the northwest side of Iztaccihuatl volcano (southeastern part of the Basin of Mexico, 19N), combined with data on the glacial chronology and tephrochronology, document Holocene climatic and vegetation changes near the present timberline. Glacial advances occurred between 12 000 and-10 500 cal. yr BP (Milpulco-l) and between 8300 and 7300 cal. yr BP (Milpulco-2). A 450-cm core was drilled in sediments accumulated in a Milpulco-I moraine depression. The sequence covers the last 11 000 cal. yr BP, according to three 14C dates and the presence of a distinctive pumice deposit dated elsewhere at 5700 cal. yr BP. The pollen record of Agua El Marrano shows barren conditions after glacier retreat, followed by a gradual colonization by elements of the alpine grasslands around 10900 cal. yr BP This plant community remained until c. 7200 cal. yr BP. Between c. 7200 cal. yr BP and 6500 cal. yr BP coniferous forest grew close to or at the site, but alpine grasslands were re-established between 6500 cal. yr BP and c. 5000 cal. yr BP, apparently in connection with mid-Holocene dry conditions recorded in central Mexico. The upper timberline attained its modern altitude (- 4000 m) in the last 3000 years. During this period no significant changes are observed in the pollen spectra. Comparison with other palaeoecological records from central Mexico suggests that the timberline fluctuated in response to both temperature and precipitation changes during the Holocene.
Physiological Response to Diets Fortified with Jerusalem Artichoke Tubers (Helianthus tuberosus L.) Powder by Diabetic Rats

The present study aimed at evaluating the biological, biochemical and histopathological parameters of diabetic rats fed on Jerusalem artichoke tubers. Liver function, kidney function, total protein, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) in diabetic rats serum were estimated. The obtained results indicated that the diets fortified with Jerusalem artichoke tuber powder (JAT) at different levels (5, 10 and 15%) improved the body weight gain, feed efficiency ratio of alloxan-injected diabetic rats relative to positive control group. The liver, kidney, heart and spleen weight of rats fed on JAT at the above three mentioned levels had similar mean values and lower levels than these of the rats of the control (+) group. Also, a significant decrease occurred in serum glucose levels for all groups with different levels (5, 10 and 15%) when compared with alloxan-induced diabetic rats. A significant increases were observed in urea and uric acid. However a decrease was found in serum creatinine for rats fed on different diets relative to the diabetic rats. On the other hand diabetic rats had a higher value of ALT, AST activities and total protein than rats fed on basal diet and JAT at different levels (5, 10 and 15%). pronounced decrease occurred in serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL and VLDL-cholesterols with rats fed on different levels (5, 10 and 15%) of JAT compared with the positive control. However, the histopathological picture of liver, kidney and spleen indicated that addition of Jerusalem artichoke tubers to the diets of alloxan-induced diabetic rats had slight effects on the microscopic structure. Thus diet containing Jerusalem artichoke tubers would reduce serum glucose levels, triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL- cholesterol in the hyperglycemic rats. Also, the obtained results indicate some improvement in liver and kidney functions as a result of these additives.
Connecting Teaching and Learning in Curriculum Adaptations.

This study of six teachers focuses on the ways they organized the classroom discourse, attended to student thinking, and adapted complex tasks from a Standard-based middle school curriculum. The study explores Cohen’s (2011) premise that the knowledge teachers develop is related to their attentiveness to student teaching. This study explores the relationship between the extent to which teachers were successfully able to elicit and organize instruction around student strategies and their ability to productively adapt tasks in terms of being responsive and maintaining cognitive demand. The results show that teachers with the most student-centered discourse practices were also able to provide the most detailed justifications for task adaptations and to productively adapt tasks from the Connected Mathematics Program (CMP) curriculum.
Application of Variable Inductors in a DC/DC Converter to Increase the Operating Range of the Power Tracker at Low Solar Levels

--------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT----------------------------------------------------------Maximum power transfer in solar micro-grid applications is achieved by impedance matching with a dc–dc converter with maximum power point tracking by the incremental conductance method. Cuk dc to dc converters because of the increase and decrease voltage capability is an important and two inductors in the input and output decrease current ripple significantly. This paper describes how to use non-linear inductors in Cuk converter and designs values of capacitors properly. Because of the Cuk converter uses two inductors, use of variable inductors has great value and reduce the size and cost of inductors and increases the operating range of the tracker to recover solar energy at low solar levels. In other words, the range of operation is extended for low light levels or partially shaded solar panels. The MPPT controller with a variable inductance is robust and reliable over the full operating range. The validity of the proposed converter is verified with computer simulations using PSCAD/EMTDC.
Image Findings Following Vertebroplasty in Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures: Bone Healing and Sagittal Alignment

Purpose: To clarify the effect of percutaneous vertebroplasty for vertebral compression fracture by assessing the changes of radiographic and CT image findings. Materials and Methods: A retrospective radiological analysis comprising 101 vertebrae of 48 patients who underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty for painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture was conducted. Whole spine radiographs and CT images were compared in patients preoperatively and 6 months postoperativey. Sagittal Cobb angles in three regions, sagittal vertical axis, and pelvic tilt were measured using whole spine lateral radiographs. CT findings due to the vertebral compression fracture, its healing process, and complications were evaluated. Results: On radiographs, sagittal alignment had an average gain of no more than 2.5° in each region. Sagittal vertical axis and pelvic tilt did not show significant change. Out of 68 vertebrae that demonstrated cortical disruption on preoperative CT, 37 (54%) demonstrated fusion of disrupted cortex on postoperative CT. Conclusion: No significant difference was observed between preoperative and postoperative spinal sagittal alignment on radiographs. However, CT did reveal healing process through fusion of disrupted cortex, intervertebral bridging, and increased density of cancellous bone. It is suggested that cement in the space of fracture may play a role in both mechanical stability and bone union.
Evaluating the Effect of Top Management Attributes on the Probability of Default

A few studies have focussed on the relationship between the top management team and probability of firm default. This research aims to evaluate the effect of CEO and CFO attributes, as top management, on the firm's probability of default. The research adopts a quantitative research methodology, of 642 companies on the FTSE all Share index. The findings show that as remuneration and tenure increased the probability of default decreased. This research proposes a regression model that ascertains the causal effect of an increase in the tenure and compensation of the Top Management Team on the Probability of default of a firm over a 3-year period. The findings will have a direct implication on management tenure and remuneration for firms to reduce their probability of default. This research can be developed further by undertaking a time series analysis of the data to see how the changes over time would affect the relationships. Keywords: Top Management Team, Probability of Default, CEO, CFO, KMV
Molecular phylogeny of the Canary Island lacertids (Gallotia): mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment divergence in relation to sequence divergence and geological time

Restriction fragment length polymorphisms of 6 base pair recognising endonucleases are used to reconstruct the phylogeny of the endemic Canary Island lacertid, Gallotia. The division into conventional species is upheld by this molecular analysis and the western Canary Island lizard (G. galloti) and eastern Canary Island lizard (G. atlantica) are hypothesized to be sister species. A more comprehensive study of the intraspecific relationships of G. galloti, based on nineteen restriction enzymes, indicates that there are distinct southern and northern lineages within this species. The phylogenetic analysis does not uphold the conventional subspecies, but suggests an alternative arrangement with one northern (La Palma, Tenerife) and one southern (Gomera, Hierro) subspecies. The inferred timing of molecular divergence of populations of G. galloti, based on RFLP analysis, is compatible with the geological timing for island origin and fossil data. Mantel tests show that mitochondrial RFLP divergence is correlated with mitrochondrial 12s rRNA and cytochrome oxidase I sequence divergence and highly correlated with mitochondrial cytochrome b sequence divergence.
Study on MnS Precipitation Thermodynamics of DL05 Cable Steel

RD electrical conductivity; manganese-sulphurratio; precipitated thermodynamics I. INTRODUCTION With the gradual deepening of China's modernization construction, gross domestic product(GDP) has jumped to the second place in the world, the skills change rapidly in manufacturing areas, so the user's demands are higher and higher to the iron and steel products' quality and performance as one of the necessary raw materials, DL05 cable steel produced by a steel plant is a typical product with quality performance guaranteed. Therefore, here are important theoretical significance and practical application value to do the further study on the conductive mechanism of DL05 cable steel. , the relationship between chemical composition, grain size and electrical conductivity for DL05 cable steel electrical conductivity's assurance and improvement. The advantage of D0L5 steel cable contain of steel tensile strength, toughness and copper conductive, the tensile strength, toughness is two times that of pure copper, quality than that of pure copper wire light 12, it has low cost, small resistance conductive rate, saving valuable non-ferrous metal resources etc., the demand increased year by year. According to statistics, the conductivity of the steel for each additional 100, per ton of steel can reduce their consumption of 800 yuan of copper. Based on the data measured in production scene, the research results that there is a direct relationship between electrical conductivity and chemical composition by analyzing the data. Data analysis shows that the higher w∑all, w ∑(C. Si. P. N), w(Als), w(Cu), w(Mn) is, the lower electrical conductivity is, electrical conductivity is not associated with w ∑(Ni. Cr. Mo. Cu), w∑all(Excluding Mn), and manganese element has the most impact. In this paper, through the study of the thermodynamic calculation of MnS inclusion in DL05 steel, the precipitation probability of the steel MnS is evaluated, and the corresponding ratio of manganese to sulfur is obtained, which provides a theoretical basis for the control of the actual manganese sulfur ratio.

EXPERIMENTAL METHODS AND ANALYSIS Manganese is the main element of the steel, the as a desulfurization agent used to control sulfur inclusion content in steel and combined with sulfur in liquid steel generate to MnS, reduce sulfur harm, slightly refine microstructure, soluble in ferrite form substitution solid solution, strengthen the organization, improve the hardenability , The solid solution strengthening substrate (1). When Mn is less than 1.5wt. %, the manganese elements to grain refinement, Strengthen the substrate, reduce theγ-Fe transition into α-Fe phase transformation temperature and initial martensitic transformation temperature, thus increasing the number of participating in austenite, and then improve the toughness of steel (2). The addition of manganese in the steel will form the following balance:  Mn + FeS ↔ Fe + MnS 
Viscous coupling based lattice Boltzmann model for binary mixtures

A new lattice Boltzmann model for binary mixtures, which can naturally include both the two-fluid approach and the single-fluid approach, is developed. The model is derived from the continuous kinetic model proposed by Hamel, which independently takes into account self-collisions and cross collisions. The original kinetic model is discussed in order to appreciate that cross collisions realize an internal coupling force, proportional to the diffusion velocity, and an additional coupling effect in the effective stress tensor, proportional to the deformation of the barycentric velocity field. For this reason, Hamel’s model is the natural forerunner of all linearized models based on the two-fluid approach and allows us to describe binary mixtures at different limiting regimes consistently. A discrete lattice Boltzmann model, which recovers the original Hamel’s model with second-order accuracy in both time and space, is proposed. This discrete model can analyze ordinary diffusion, pressure diffusion, and force.
A comparison of parameters of the passage of nylon capsules and digesta calculated from faecal excretion data obtained in lactating cows

The aim of the study was to compare parameters of passage of nylon capsules and digesta repre- sented by Cr-labelled maize silage through the digestive tract of dairy cows. The capsules were made of nylon cloth (42 µm pore size, 10 mm outside diameter) and applied orally. The evaluation was carried out in dairy cows with milk yield of 19.0 kg/day. The diet (17.6 kg DM/day) consisted of maize silage, lucerne hay and concentrate. Total mean retention time (TMRT), delay time (τ), summarised compartmental mean retention time (CMRTS), and mean individual compartmental retention times (CMRT1 and CMRT2) were calculated. TMRT, τ, CMRTS, CMRT1 and CMRT2 values of nylon capsules and Cr-labelled silage were 36.2 and 45.4 h (P < 0.01), 16.2 and 8.3 h (P < 0.01), 20.1 and 37.2 h (P < 0.01), 7.8 and 8.5 h, 12.2 and 28.7 h (P < 0.05), respectively. The calculated mean retention time of nylon capsules in the reticulo-rumen (CMRTS) was shorter and in the intestines (τ) was longer than that of digesta. For this reason the estimation of digestibility using the nylon capsule method can be questionable.
Wind turbines , amenities and disamenities : A study of home value impacts in densely populated Massachusetts

This study investigates the effect of planned or operating wind turbines on urban home values. Previous studies, which largely produced non-significant findings, focused on rural settings. We analyzed more than 122,000 home sales, between 1998 and 2012, that occurred near 41 turbines in densely populated Massachusetts communities. Although we found the effects from various negative features (such as electricity transmission lines) and positive features (such as open space) generally accorded with previous studies, we found no net effects due to turbines in the sample's communities. We also found no unique impact on the rate of home sales near wind turbines.
Clays as Catalysts in Petroleum Refining Industry

In the last century, catalysts became one of the most powerful tools in the petroleum refining industry. Clays are widely used as catalysts and catalyst supports for a quite broad range of processes. Clay catalysts have attracted much interest in catalytic application in petroleum refining industry. This review will focus on the using of clays and their modifications as catalysts and catalyst supports in the petroleum refining industry. Clays are used extensively for various processes such as catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, reforming, isomerization, hydrogenation, alkylation, etc. The most important clays used in the manufacture of catalysts are kaolin and montmorillonite. The largest use of kaolin is in catalyst substrates in the catalytic cracking of petroleum, in the matrix as catalysts of fluid catalytic cracking, synthetic of zeolite andalumina. Montmorillonites or acid-modified montmorillonites also have been used for numerous reactions. For example, the best clay base for pillaring is a high-swelling Na-montmorillonite. However, the interest on palygorskite and sepiolite clays is more recent, but their interesting application as catalyst supports.
Mouse-Tracking Reveals When the Stroop Effect Happens.

We examined the continuous dynamics of the Stroop task using mouse-tracking. Participants moved the computer mouse to indicate the color of words presented on the computer screen in both congruent (blue in blue font) and incongruent (blue in yellow font) conditions. Mouse-tracking data revealed significant differences in reaction times, spatial attraction, and velocity. In the Stroop effect, word reading and color processing influenced performance, but they did so differently: Word reading influenced the early part of the mouse trajectory, but color processing influenced later parts. The data provide important new information about the real time processing dynamics underlying the effect.
The Eect of the Uruguay Round Multilateral Tari Reduction on the Intensive and Extensive Margins of Trade

The aim of this paper is to decompose the effect of tariffs on the extensive and intensive margins of trade, by using a three-dimensional panel which allows us to control for the unobserved heterogeneity of trade flows. We provide an answer to the following question: do tariffs inhibit trade flows by limiting the entry of exporters (’firm extensive margin’) or rather by restricting the volumes exported by firms (’firm intensive margin’)? Using a gravity equation approach we analyze how the decrease in tariffs promoted during the 90’s by the Uruguay Round multilateral trade agreement affected the trade margins of French firms for 57 products to 147 countries from 1993 to 2002. Our results suggest that there are more exporters where tariffs are the lower. However the decrease in tariffs, induced by the implementation of the Uruguay Round, did not push more firms into exporting. It rather induced incumbent exporters to increase their shipments. Two problems may affect our specification: tariffs change may be endogenous and 0-flows are not included. We address the former issue by instrumenting tariffs change with their pre-policy level. We include 0-flows in a variety of ways proposed in the literature. Our results reveal that the Uruguay Round agreement explained up to the 4.7% of French total export growth between 1993 and 2002. ∗Correspondance: Banca d’Italia, via Nazionale 91, 00184, Rome, Italy.

Lipid oxidation and perceived exertion level during exercise in obese: effect of the exercise form

Regular exercise is one of the most used solutions to avoid obesity. In this study we compared the amounts of lipid oxidation and the level of perceived exertion in three physical exercises, one continuous and two intermittent in obese. Ten obese men (age 26.01 ± 6.0 years, weight: 104.2 ± 19.4 kg, BMI: 33.5 ± 3.6 kg / m 2 ) performed three 45 minutes exercises during which we measured energy expenditure and the level of perceived exertion. A continuous exercise whose intensity corresponds to the intensity of Fat max, an intermittent exercise which alternate four minutes at the intensity of Fat max -10% and one minute at the fat max intensity +10% (intermittent 1/4), and a second intermittent exercise which alternate two minutes at the intensity of Fat max -10% and one minute at the Fat max intensity +20% (intermittent 1/2). While the total energy expenditure during continuous exercise (321.6 Kcal) is higher than those of the intermittent 1/4 (268.1 Kcal) and the intermittent 1/2 (268.9 Kcal), the amounts of energy from oxidized fats in the three exercises are equivalent: 34,6 Kcal, 31,8 Kcal and 36,2 Kcal respectively for the three exercises. The perceived exertion measured by the Borg scale showed that intermittent exercises causes less fatigue in obese than the continuous exercise.
