Automating the Organizing Process for PDF Files

The progression of technology is exponentiation in almost all fields. Technology makes many aspects of human life simpler, and less complex. The progress and the intent of innovation within technology/computers has in no way stopped, however some components within these systems have been forgotten. File organization is very much still a manual task. Whether these files are virtual or not the task of organizing them is equally tedious and labor inducing.There is a lot of room and need to create a space withing virtual data that takes the physical labor of organizing.
Mechanically Robust 3D Graphene–Hydroxyapatite Hybrid Bioscaffolds with Enhanced Osteoconductive and Biocompatible Performance

In this paper, we describe three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical graphene–hydroxyapatite hybrid bioscaffolds (GHBs) with a calcium phosphate salt electrochemically deposited onto the framework of graphene foam (GF). The morphology of the hydroxyapatite (HA) coverage over GF was controlled by the deposition conditions, including temperature and voltage. The HA obtained at the higher temperature demonstrates the more uniformly distributed crystal grain with the smaller size. The as-prepared GHBs show a high elasticity with recoverable compressive strain up to 80%, and significantly enhanced strength with Young’s modulus up to 0.933 MPa compared with that of pure GF template (~7.5 kPa). Moreover, co-culture with MC3T3-E1 cells reveals that the GHBs can more effectively promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts with good biocompatibility than pure GF and the control group. The superior performance of GHBs suggests their promising applications as multifunctional materials for the repair and regeneration of bone defects.

Development and release of CR Dhan 407, a high-yielding cultivar, with a potential yield of more than 5 tons per hectare and non-lodging plant type, can address the problem of yield stagnation in this major rice ecosystem of India. With its high yield and excellent grain quality, this variety can significantly enhance the income of rice farmers of eastern India.
No effect of habitat fragmentation on post-fledging, first-year and adult survival in the middle spotted woodpecker

Despite its relevance for the dynamics of populations, the ecological mechanisms underlying juvenile and adult survival are poorly known in most bird species. This study focuses on the effect of habitat fragmentation on early post-fledging, first-year and adult survival of the middle spotted woodpecker Dendrocopus medius by combining data of radio-tagged and ringed birds. Among juveniles, most deaths occurred during the first three weeks after fledging (survival rate: 0.35990.077) and were mainly caused by predation. After independence, birds faced another critical period during their first autumn-winter that lowered first-year survival further (0.25590.044), whereas adult mortality was considerably lower (annual survival rate: 0.78690.074). We did not find any significant effect of habitat fragmentation (measured as patch size and connectivity) on juvenile or adult survival. Sex ratio at fledging did not differ significantly from parity (proportion of females: 0.513) and was not correlated to patch size. Regardless of age, survival did not differ between the sexes, suggesting that a femalebiased mortality was not the mechanism behind the presence of unpaired territorial males in this population. Lighter nestlings underwent significantly higher post-fledging mortality, indicating that conditions in the nest may substantially affect survival later in life.

On the design of nano-arm fractal antenna for UWB wireless applications

This paper presents the design of a nano-arm fractal antenna suitable for ultra wide band applications. The CPW-feed and fractal concept have been used to achieve the ultra wide bandwidth. The shape of the fractal geometry, the number of iterations and the number of nano-arms are the deciding factors for achieving wider impedance bandwidth. The experimental result of the fractal antenna exhibits ultra wideband characteristics in the frequency range of 2.55 GHz to 11.84 GHz corresponding to an impedance bandwidth of 131.77%. The measured radiation patterns of the proposed antenna are nearly omni-directional in the H - plane and bidirectional in the E-plane. The antenna can be useful for modern wireless communication, medical imaging and ground penetrating radar.

2 Problem in Calculating Attribute Core of a Decision

Attribute core of a decision table is often the start point and key of many information reduction procedures. In this paper, we will study the problem of calculating the attribute core of a decision table. We find some errors in some former results by Hu and Ye [1, 2]. Both definitions of attribute core in the algebra view and information view are studied and their difference is discovered. An algorithm for calculating the attribute core of a decision table in the information view and a systemic method for calculating the attribute core of a decision table in different cases are developed.
Linking Psychological Empowerment to Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment: Investigating the Mediating Effect of Organizational Trust

The main purpose of this research is to examine the influence of psychological empowerment and organizational trust on job satisfaction and organizational commitment among Kuwait free trade zone employees. Data were obtained for this research through a set of questionnaire which was divided into four parts and administered to a total of 271 respondents. The results showed that psychological empowerment mainly affects employees’ job satisfaction and organizational commitment. The results indicated that two dimensions of psychological empowerment, i.e. Meaning and Impact, are significant and positively related to job satisfaction. The existing literature supports the relationships between psychological empowerment dimensions and three dimensions of organizational commitment: normative, continuance, and affective commitment. However, results from this study showed inconsistency. The results showed that only one dimension of Psychological Empowerment, Meaning, is significant and positively Associated to Affective Commitment; two dimensions of Psychological Empowerment, Meaning and Competence, are significant and positively Associated to Normative Commitment; and no dimensions of Psychological Empowerment are statistically contributed to Continuance Commitment. Moreover, analysis has also showed that organizational trust mediates the relationships between psychological empowerment, job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Some practical implications are also discussed. The research concludes with limitations and future research suggestions to enhance psychological empowerment in public and private organizations in Kuwait.
Marine biological valuation Biodiversity Ecological valuation criteria Intrinsic value Hotspot approach

In order to develop management strategies for sustainable use and conservation in the marine environment, reliable and meaningful, but integrated ecological information is needed. Biological valuation maps that compile and summarize all available biological and ecological information for a study area, and that allocate an overall biological value to subzones, can be used as baseline maps for future spatial planning at sea. This paper provides a concept for marine biological valuation which is based on a literature review of existing valuation criteria and the consensus reached by a discussion group of experts.
Neuropharmacology and analgesia Antinociceptive activity of CC 44 , a biotinylated improgan congener

Improgan, a non-opioid, antinociceptive drug, activates descending analgesic circuits following brain administration, but the improgan receptor remains unidentified. Since biotinylation of drugs can enhance drug potency or facilitate discovery of new drug targets, a biotinylated congener of improgan (CC44) and several related compounds were synthesized and tested for antinociceptive activity. In rats and mice, intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of CC44 produced dose-dependent reductions in thermal nociceptive (tail flick and hot plate) responses, with 5-fold greater potency than improgan. CC44 also robustly attenuated mechanical (tail pinch) nociception in normal rats and mechanical allodynia in a spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain. Similar to the effects of improgan, CC44 antinociception was reversed by the GABAA agonist muscimol (consistent with activation of analgesic circuits), and was resistant to the opioid antagonist naltrexone (implying a non-opioid mechanism). Also like improgan, CC44 produced thermal antinociception when microinjected into the rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM). Unlike improgan, CC44 (i.c.v.) produced antinociception which was resistant to antagonism by the cannabinoid CB1 antagonist/inverse agonist rimonabant. CC44 was inactive in mice following systemic administration, indicating that CC44 does not penetrate the brain. Preliminary findings with other CC44 congeners suggest that the heteroaromatic nucleus (imidazole), but not the biotin moiety, is required for CC44's antinociceptive activity. These findings demonstrate that CC44 is a potent analgesic compound with many improgan-like characteristics. Since powerful techniques are available to characterize and identify the binding partners for biotin-containing ligands, CC44 may be useful in searching for new receptors for
Spectral Rendering of Interference Phenomena Caused by Multilayer Films Under Global Illumination Envi- ronment

Interference phenomena caused by multilayer films generates beautiful scenery. When rendering the phenomena in computer graphics, we should take into account both spectral distributions and global illumination. The paper proposes a method for rendering optical phenomena caused by multilayer films based on wave optics under global illumination environment. The method is an extension of a multilayer-film model, where the traditional model is based on a local illumination model and has limitations of rendering a scene with caustics and inter-reflection of light. In the proposed method, the multilayer-film model is reconstructed taking into account global light transport to render optical phenomena caused by interference of light under global illumination environment.
ERP signatures of subject–verb agreement in L2 learning

In this study we examined ERP (event-related-potential) responses in the morphosyntactic processing of subject–verb agreements by L2 Chinese learners of English. Fifteen proficient L2 learners and fifteen native English speakers were presented with English sentences that varied in the grammaticality of the sentence with respect to subject–verb agreement. Our results indicate that late L2 learners show distinct ERP responses from native speakers in the processing of syntactic features that are absent in their L1, even when their behavioral patterns are similar to those of native speakers. The results are taken to support the proposal that language-specific experiences with L1 shape the neural structure of processing in L2.

Synchrotron self-Compton flaring of TeV blazars II. Linear and nonlinear electron cooling

A theoretical radiation model for the flaring of TeV blazars is discussed here for the case of a nonlinear electron synchrotron cooling in these sources. We compute analytically the optically thick and thin synchrotron radiation intensities and photon density distributions in the emission knot as functions of frequency and time followed by the synchrotron self-Compton intensity and fluence in the optically thin frequency range using the Thomson approximation of the inverse Compton cross section. At all times and frequencies, the optically thin part of the synchrotron radiation process is shown to provide the dominant contribution to the synchrotron self-Compton quantities, while the optically thick part is always negligible. Afterwards, we compare the linear to the nonlinear synchrotron radiation cooling model using the data record of PKS 2155-304 on MJD 53944 favouring a linear cooling of the injected monoenergetic electrons. The good agreement of both the linear and the nonlinear cooling model with the data supports the relativistic pickup process operating in this source. Additionally, we discuss the synchrotron self-Compton scattering, applying the full Klein-Nishina cross section to achieve the most accurate results for the synchrotron self-Compton intensity and fluence distributions.
Semiconductor High-level Dosimeters Used in the SLAC Photon and Neutron Fields

As part of an exploration of Semiconductor High-Level Dosimetry (SHLD) in the accelerator radiation fields, the response of SHLD system, composed of dual MOSFETs, wide-base PIN diode, and a microprocessor-controlled reader, was calibrated in photon (Co-60) and neutron (Bare-reactor) fields. The response curves for the MOSFET and the PIN diode were determined. The neutron sensitivity of the PIN diode is about a factor of 2200 times higher than its photon sensitivity. Therefore, the PIN diode can be used to measure the neutron dose and virtually ignore the photon dose contribution. The MOSFET can be used to estimate the photon dose after subtracting the ionizing effect of the neutrons. The SHLD was used in the SLAC mixed field to measure the photon and neutron doses around a copper beam dump. The photon measurements near the copper dump agreed reasonably with the FLUKA Monte Carlo calculations. The neutron measurements agreed with FLUKA calculations to within a factor of two.
Use of the Internet by Health Professionals and Consumer Support Groups: a case analysis

This paper outlines case study research with “Eye Believe” a support group for patients who have had an eye removed usually (but not exclusively) due to ocular melanoma (cancer of the eye). It is a participative action research (PAR) project. The aim is to adopt a user-centric socio-technical approach to developing an online community to offer information and support to the group. The project will draw upon theories of knowledge creation and management through socialization, user participation in a health service context and the sociology of technology. In its initial stages the research was explorative. However, a conflict of interests immediately arose between the support group members and the health service representatives. Through this conflict it is anticipated that the research will now adopt a Critical Social Theory (CST) approach in aiming to empower the member’s of Eye Believe through their online community.
What matters in differences between life trajectories: a comparative review of sequence dissimilarity measures

This is a comparative study of the multiple ways of measuring dissimilarities between state sequences. The originality of the study is the focus put on the differences between sequences that are sociologically important when studying life courses such as family life trajectories or professional careers. These differences essentially concern the sequencing (the order in which successive states appear), the timing and the duration of the spells in successive states. The study examines the sensitivity of the measures to these three aspects analytically and empirically by means of simulations. Even if some distance measures underperform, the study shows that there is no universally optimal distance index, and that the choice of a measure depends on which aspect we want to focus on. From the review and simulation results, the paper derives guidelines to help the end user to choose the right dissimilarity measure for her or his research objectives. This study also introduces novel ways of measuring dissimilarities that overcome some flaws in existing measures.
Generalisation of the Solution of the Inverse Richards’ Problem

In inverse problems defined by models that include partial differential equations, a part of the boundary conditions are unknown and are to be estimated from experimental measurements. We have shown in a previous contribution that the solution of the inverse Richards’ problem can allow estimating percolation rates at the bottom of landfills through the use of measurements at the surface only. This can be a useful complement of the information furnished by the vadose measurement system, pointing to the possible presence of biases of in-situ equipment, and making it possible to use inexpensive mobile equipment to carry out surface measurements.In this article, we consider a generalisation which makes it possible to consider the presence of unknown non- linear parameters, such as the effective hydraulic conductivity and the root uptake coefficients. This is accomplished using the method of separation of variables in the resulting estimation problem. Thanks to the linearity of the model, all these conditions can be expressed as linear functions of the unknown lower boundary condition. Otherwise, the relevant non-linear parameters are to be estimated from the data as well. Obviously, the correlation between the linear parameters contained in the unknown lower boundary conditions and the non-linear parameters can reduce the reliability of the monitoring procedure and hence the necessity of limiting the number of the latter.
