Artifact Analysis around Video Creation in Collaborative STEM Learning Scenarios

In this study, we explore the potential of (semi-) automated artifact analysis to identify and characterize students' comprehension problems around knowledge artifacts in the form of videos available on a web platform. Using the comments assigned to these learning videos as sources, we have applied available and tailor-made methods of text analysis to identify potential problems of understanding. In particular, we have used signal words and their relationship to domain concepts to indicate missing pre-knowledge or false beliefs. In future work, these results will be used to support monitoring processes for increasing conceptual awareness and supporting conceptual change.
FOOD DEPRIVATION AND COMPENSATORY GROWTH IN JUVENILE PIAVA , Leporinus obtusidens

The growth and body composition of Leporinus obtusidens juveniles (32.0 ± 8.0 g; 137.3 ± 11.9 mm) were evaluated under food deprivation followed by refeeding. Fish were stocked in 130-L tanks (15 fish tank-1), maintained at 26.6 ± 0.3 °C, and fed commercial feed (42% crude protein). Four feeding regimes (days fed to apparent satiation × days without food) were evaluated: control (144F:0D), 1D (1F:1D), 6D (6F:6D) or 12D (12F:12D). The greatest increase in weight and growth rates was observed in control. Fish in 1D, 6D or 12D grew to 73, 64 and 65% in weight of fish in control treatment, respectively. Total daily food intake was lower in 12D (1.02 ± 0.06 g) compared to control (1.28 ± 0.02 g). Water content of body composition was higher in control, but other parameters were not significantly different. Leporinus obtusidens showed partial compensatory growth, and the pattern of productive performance and final body composition could be adjusted to lipostatic model, since during food deprivation energy reserves are mobilized to maintain metabolism, resulting in weight loss, whereas during refeeding nutrients are used for restoration of energy reserves, slowing growth.
Treatment of schizophrenia with long-acting injectable risperidone: a 12-month open-label trial of the first long-acting second-generation antipsychotic.

BACKGROUND The long-term safety and efficacy of long-acting injectable risperidone, the first long-acting second-generation antipsychotic, were evaluated in stable patients with schizophrenia. METHOD After a 2-week run-in period during which patients with DSM-IV schizophrenia received flexible doses of 1 to 6 mg of oral risperidone, patients received injections of 25 mg, 50 mg, or 75 mg of long-acting risperidone every 2 weeks for 12 months. Severity of extrapyramidal symptoms was assessed with the Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS), and efficacy was assessed with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). This study was conducted from March 29, 1999 to July 19, 2000. RESULTS The subjects were 615 patients with schizophrenia who received at least 1 injection of long-acting risperidone. The 12-month trial was completed by 65% of patients. Treatment was discontinued because of adverse events in 5% of patients. Extrapyramidal symptoms as adverse events were reported by 25% of the patients. Severity of extrapyramidal symptoms (according to ESRS scores) was low at baseline and decreased in each of the groups during the 12 months. The other most common adverse events were anxiety in 24%, insomnia in 21%, psychosis in 17%, and depression in 14% of the patients. Little pain was associated with the injections. Severity of symptoms of schizophrenia was improved in each group, with significant reductions in PANSS total scores (p <.01) and positive (p <.01) and negative (p <.001) factor scores. CONCLUSION In terms of both safety and efficacy, symptomatically stable patients with schizophrenia benefit from being switched to long-acting injectable risperidone.
Total Learning Architecture Development: A Design-Based Research Approach

Organizations that use learning technology to educate and train are facing a new set of interoperability problems. Many new products—including adaptive systems, intelligent digital tutors, real-time data analytics, and interactive e-books—offer dramatic learning benefits. However, these products primarily “stand alone” and work outside of typical browser-based delivery environments controlled by traditional learning management systems. Furthermore, the effectiveness of these “intelligent systems” often depends on their access to data generated by and stored in other systems. The U.S. DoD Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) Initiative is designing a framework of specifications, called the Total Learning Architecture (TLA), to ultimately enable “plug-and-play” interoperability of learning technologies. That is, the TLA will allow these new products to interoperate with each other, with other existing learning systems, and even human capital management technologies. Because of the rapid rate of innovation in such distributed technologies, we adopted a multiyear design-based research approach. During the project’s first year, an initial set of specifications have been developed and evaluated for technical and functional adequacy using a multi-round Delphi approach with a panel of international participants ( n = 54). Also, in partnership with the U.S. Army JFK Special Warfare Center and School’s Special Warfare Education Group, we conducted a live prototype test and demonstration with Special Operations Soldiers ( n = 73). This yielded data on the nascent system’s functionality, performance, user experience, and learning potential
Evolution of a disrupted TAR RNA hairpin structure in the HIV‐1 virus.

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) RNA contains an extended hairpin structure at the 5′ end (the TAR element) that is essential for viral replication. The upper part of the stem‐loop structure binds the virally encoded transcriptional activator protein Tat and cellular co‐factors, but no clear function for the lower stem region has been established. Here, we report that mutant HIV‐1 viruses with base substitutions in the lower stem region are dead, most likely at the level of transcription from an integrated provirus. By using large amounts of these mutant DNA constructs for transfections, revertant viruses with a great variety of genetic changes (point mutations, short deletions) could be isolated in prolonged culture experiments that lasted over 6 months. The pattern and evolution of these changes supported the notion that base‐pairing of the lower stem region is essential for optimal HIV‐1 replication. The functional and genetic plasticities of this RNA domain and the HIV‐1 long terminal repeat promoter are discussed.
Review on Environment Monitoring System and Energy Efficiency

The Environment monitoring is one of the applications of wireless sensor network. The most serious environment pollution is air pollution because different air pollutant causes damage to human health and causes global warming. To avoid such effect on human health and climate change Environment monitoring systems are used. This paper provides the short overview of different environmental air pollution monitoring systems and Energy efficiency in WSN to reduced the power consumption of system.
Robot control as a service — Towards cloud-based motion planning and control for industrial robots

This paper introduces a new concept for flexible motion planning and control of industrial robots. Instead of a closed monolithic architecture, an open service-based framework is proposed. The services can be run hardware-independent on a decentralized IT infrastructure (Cloud) allowing a fast reconfiguration of control modules and their multiple usage in different tasks. The services can be run on a dedicated PC or on individual virtual machines inside a single computing cluster. The proposed service-based framework was implemented and tested for the motion planning of a robotic manipulator. Effects on control performance, availability and scalability are investigated and documented.
Effect of Noni Leaf Flour on Eggs Productivity of Quail

This study was conducted to determine the effect the noni leaf flour on the productivity of quail. Morinda citrifolia leaves are dried, then grounded to a flour. Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used to analyze the data obtained from this study. Ninety-six-seven weeks old quails were divided into 4 (four) treatment with 3 (three) replicates and each replicate consisting of 8 (eight) quails with a ratio of 3 : 1, where in one replication consisted of 6 female and 2 male quails. Treatment given that R0 (commercial feed), R1 (commercial feed + 3% noni leaf flour), R2 (commercial feed + noni leaf flour 6%) and R3 (commercial feed + 9% noni leaf flour). The productivity parameters are measured that consist of hen egg day, feed consumption, egg production, feed conversion and hatchability. The results showed that the treatment significantly affected (P <0.05) hen day, feed consumption, egg production, and feed conversion. However, it was not significantly (P> 0.05) on hatchability. The use of 9% of noni leaf flour in feed accelerated sex maturity of quail. Quail treated with noni leaf flour had 58.70% hen day and egg production more higher 2.65 kg compared to other treatments. Eggs from 9% Noni flour treatment was the heaviest, therefore noni leaf flour is more effective in producing hatchery eggs than eggs for consumption

Immune response in rhesus macaques after mixed modality immunisations with DNA, recombinant adenovirus and recombinant gp120 from human immunodeficiency virus type 1

The establishment of effective regimens for a vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) is urgently needed. In the present study we have produced HIV‐1 gp120 from a vaccine‐relevant primary R5 isolate in recombinant vaccinia (rVV)‐infected Vero cells. We have investigated the effect of boosting with this protein in mixed modality immunisations of rhesus macaques following different immunisation. As reported earlier, animals were primed with codon‐optimised HIV‐1BX08env DNA delivered as plasmid or as replication‐deficient recombinant human adenovirus type 5 (rAd5), which both induced specific antibody and cellular immune responses (1). Boosting with rAd5 temporarily had increased the anti‐gp120 antibody titres approximately 1 log (rAd5+rAd5) or 3 log (DNA+rAd5) (1). However, secondary rAd5 boosting showed less effect due to the induced vector‐specific immunity. To further boost the antibody response, the rgp120BX08 was injected with Quadri A saponin adjuvant. The protein boosting resulted in a 1–2 log antibody increase and also boosting of the cell‐mediated immune response. Neutralising antibodies to the heterologous HIV‐1MN were detected; however, neutralising antibodies to the primary HIV‐1Bx08 isolate were seen only transiently after rAd5 but not the rgp120 immunisation. It is concluded that the rgp120Bx08 reagent from rVV‐infected Vero cells is functional and immunogenic in macaques, inducing both antibody and cellular immunity. The rgp120Bx08 is a relevant model antigen that may be used to boost antibody and cellular immunity in mixed modality vaccine regimens against HIV‐1 in higher animals.

WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING AWS

In the recent years, Urbanization has increased hugely. At the same time there is an increase in waste production very much. Waste management has been a very necessary issue to be considered. Raising of insects and mosquitoes can create problems around promoting impure environment. This may even cause terrible diseases. In this project of smart waste bin, we presented the smart waste-bin that can managed the waste in a smart city project. Each n every trash can contain a smart device for level detection of the trash can which transmits the garbage/trash level with its token ID, accessed by the concerned municipal/regional authorities through the smart phone application, so that they can take immediate actions to clean the trash once it gets filled with waste. The system consist of Ultrasonic Level sensors to measure the level of waste inside the bin. The Ultrasonic sensor is placed at the top of the dustbin which can be used to measure the ability of the dustbin. Once these smart bins are implemented on a large scale, by replacing our traditional bins present today, waste can be managed efficiently as it avoids unnecessary lumping of wastes on roadside. The system also accommodate with network environment, to manage all related information from waste management
PBIS 1 RUNNING HEAD: PBIS in Early Childhood Settings PBIS and Behavior Interventions in Early Childhood Settings. By LINDSEY FLENTHROPE

The purpose of this study was to see if there is a difference in student behaviors when PBIS is implemented into an early childhood setting. Challenging behaviors are increasing in early childhood settings leaving teachers feeling inadequately trained to manage behavior problems. Data was retrieved from two schools PBIS-SWIS system to compare students’ behaviors resulting in office referrals. The amount of office referrals was compared between the first year of implementing PBIS to year 3 of full PBIS implementation. After compiling and reviewing literature, it was found PBIS can be modified to fit an early childhood setting. After analyzing the data there was a difference found but not a significate difference in student behaviors with the implementation of PBIS.
Beat histogram features for rhythm-based musical genre classification using multiple novelty functions

In this paper we present beat histogram features for multiple level rhythm description and evaluate them in a musical genre classification task. Audio features pertaining to various musical content categories and their related novelty functions are extracted as a basis for the creation of beat histograms. The proposed features capture not only amplitude, but also tonal and general spectral changes in the signal, aiming to represent as much rhythmic information as possible. The most and least informative features are identified through feature selection methods and are then tested using Support Vector Machines on five genre datasets concerning classification accuracy against a baseline feature set. Results show that the presented features provide comparable classification accuracy with respect to other genre classification approaches using periodicity histograms and display a performance close to that of much more elaborate up-to-date approaches for rhythm description. The use of bar boundary annotations for the texture frames has provided an improvement for the dance-oriented Ballroom dataset. The comparably small number of descriptors and the possibility of evaluating the influence of specific signal components to the general rhythmic content encourage the further use of the method in rhythm description tasks.

The Seasonal Variability of Aerosol Optical Depth over Bangladesh Based on Satellite Data and HYSPLIT Model

Atmospheric aerosols have constituted a crucial environmental and climate issue. There is lack of studies dealing with monitoring of aerosol patterns over Bangladesh. This review attempts to analyze the seasonal variations in AOD over Bangladesh during the period 2002-2011, using MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Level 3 remote sensing data. A Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model is used to generate a backward trajectory in order to identify the origins of air masses, with the aim of understanding the spatio-temporal variability in aerosol concentration. Seasonal variations during the last decade show maximum AOD values during pre-monsoon season; while minimum AOD during post-monsoon. An evidence of decadal decreasing trend in AOD is found during monsoon season while all other seasons show increasing trends. High spatio-temporal variations of AOD are observed during different seasons in 2010. Back trajectory analysis indicates that Bangladesh is mainly affected by the pollutants and desert dust of India combining with sea salt particles blown from the Arabian Sea. The air masses are arriving at lower altitudes (500m, 1500m) mainly from western India and Indian subcontinent but at higher altitude (2500m) especially in winter season it comes from far western regions, such as Europe and various sub-Saharan regions of Africa. Different flow patterns of air masses during post-monsoon are observed that the air masses are arriving from southeast in the direction; in case of Sylhet division the sources of air masses are in the coastal regions of Thailand, border regions of Myanmar and China. These studies become helpful to understand the nature and influence of aerosols on seasonal dynamics over Bangladesh.
Stability of Bright Solitons in Bose-Einstein Condensate

Abstract. We consider a system of effectively one dimensional cigar shaped Bose Einstein condensate. We present a numerical study for the existence and stability of travelling bright solitons in the time dependent nonlinear Schrödinger equation that describes the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensate. Furthermore, the effects of strength of the trap on the stability of bright solitons are investigated when the condensate is placed under the influence of a trapping potential.

Alterações moleculares associadas à hemocromatose hereditária Molecular changes associated with hereditary hemochromatosis

Hereditary Hemochromatosis (HH) is the most common autosomal disease in Caucasians. It is characterized by an increase in intestinal absorption of iron, which results in a progressive accumulation of iron in the body. The classification of HH is carried out according to the genetic alteration found; thus cases of HH are divided into Types 1, 2A, 2B, 3 and 4, when the iron overload is associated to the HFE, HJV, HAMP, TFR2 and SLC40A1 genes, respectively. There is research on the three HFE gene mutations (C282Y, H63D and S65C) in the Brazilian population however there are no Brazilian studies that evaluate the presence of mutations in other genes related to the pathophysiology of HH (HJV, HAMP, TFR2 and SLC40A1 genes). Nevertheless, studies conducted in Brazil have described that some patients with primary iron overload are not carriers of the Type 1 HH (associated with the HFE gene). Hence, it is very important to identify the genetic characteristics of this population, as mutations of the HJV, HAMP, TFR2 and SLC40A1 genes may be associated with the pathophysiology of the disease, and there may be interactions between mutations. These findings will

Chapter 2 What Is Generalized Continuum Mechanics ( GCM ) ?

We classify under the title “generalized continuum mechanics” all what is not covered in the restricted framework of the Cauchy model exposed in the prerequisite Chap. 1 under the title of “classical continuum mechanics”. In a structured overview this generalization can be presented through the successive abandonment of the basic working hypotheses of standard continuum mechanics of Cauchy: that is, introduction of a density of bulk couple, of a rigidly rotating microstructure and couple stresses (Cosserat continua or micropolar bodies, nonsymmetric stresses), introduction of a truly deformable microstructure (micromorphic bodies), “weak” nonlocalization with gradient theories and the notion of hyperstresses, and the introduction of characteristic lengths, “strong” nonlocalization with space functional constitutive equations and the loss of the Cauchy notion of stress, and finally giving up the Euclidean and even Riemannian material background. We peruse these steps in this overview, referring the reader to specialized entries for technical details.
