Leadership in the fishing cooperative in Mexico
Authors: Contreras Loera Marcela Rebeca , Velarde Valdez Mónica 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The need to compete and grow encourages changes in organizations. In the fishing camps are created cooperatives, which know the reality of the environment and work with the aim of contributing to the development and progress of the fishermen and their communities. It is fundamental the role of its leaders, who have a responsibility to promote change in attitude and teamwork, to achieve personal and collective goals. This paper presents preliminary results of a larger study which main objective was to identify the type of leadership that dominates in the management of the Sinaloa fishing cooperatives. The study was conducted under the qualitative paradigm; data collection was carried out with semi-structured interviews with managers and former directives of fishing cooperatives located in central Sinaloa, complemented by the application of a questionnaire covering their socioeconomic profile.
The main findings show that managers are fishermen, cooperative members, elected by the General Assembly as the highest organ of administration, with an average age from 35 to 45 years old, with basic school grades. They know about the productive activity of artisanal fisheries and occupy the job of president of the board in periods of 2-3 years without administrative preparation to run them. Regarding the predominant style of leadership, managers of fishing cooperatives say their efforts are focused on the development of organizational tasks such as setting goals and targets for each fishing season. In relation with the development of human relationships among members of the cooperative, indicate that their main concern is the quality of mutual relations and the level of involvement of partners, and with that in mind they implement strategies for the integration and participation in the opinions and decision making for the members. With the above it is concluded that managers of fishing cooperatives are young fishermen who run the organization with little training for the development of their job and they practice predominantly a style of democratic leadership, because they promote the participation of partners in both contribution of opinions as in decision making, strengthening the trust deposited in him at the time of his election as leader.

Published: August 2015

Abstract
This paper has taken an insight to the systemic models of family business from the open systems perspective. I focus on family business system models and on the subsystems content of family system and ownership system in family business context. The paper claim that the open system perspective on intercultural family businesses has both theoretical and empirical implications on family business research. Family businesses have many reasons, including family conflicts over money, nepotism leading to wrong management, and infighting over the succession of power from one generation to the other. Regulating the family’s roles as shareholders, board members, and managers is very important because it can help avoid these pitfalls. This paper will discuss the importance of the openness of the company through five the attributes of enduring family businesses: ownership, family, business and portfolio governance, wealth management, foundation. Dimension of attributes success have taken family business like five jewelers.

Sport fan loyalty is important to attain within a culturally rich and global audience as loyal sport fans are unique consumers. The ability to adequately understand what motivates the sports consumer is an important requirement for sport managers. This paper proposes that a greater understanding of fandom will contribute to a better understanding of the concept of loyalty. Although there is research regarding typology of fans and loyalty, but even within sport advocates group there may be sub-categories that can explain loyalty behaviour further. This research analyses types of sport fans in different disciplines in the UK, as an example of diverse society to explore factors determining category of fans.
Personality Differences in Organisational Socialisation Tactics
Authors: Burböck Birgit , Schnepf Sandra , Pessl Stephan 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
The demographic shifts, the increased workforce mobility, and the shortage of skilled workers have led to a new thinking within human resource management. To address this issue, organisations adapt their methods towards a higher focus on their employees. The purpose of this paper is therefore the identification of organisational socialisation tactics, which are classified into the individualized socialisation strategy and the institutionalised socialisation strategy. Studies show that the institutionalised socialisation strategy causes better results in terms of newcomer adjustment than the individualized socialisation strategy. In this context, the instiutionalised socialization strategy determines that organisations consider newcomers’ personalities and demographic characteristics. The results of this paper support this argument and reveal that students in the DACH region differ in their organisational socialisation preferences. In other words, a well-structured organisational socialisation process, which considers newcomers’ personalities can lead to a competitive advantage for organisations.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to show how the specifics of family businesses (the „familiness”) affects the company’s organization culture. In other words, the article aim is to identify the specific impact of family businesses on certain cultural traits identified in international studies and in the literature as „culture’s dimensions „.Literature analysis and the results of previous research on family businesses let the authors to specify a list of characteristics that „possession”, in the most comprehensive way, describes the specifics of the family business. Based on the literature review authors decided to select some dimensions - cultural traits that are particularly distinctive and noticeable in family businesses, such as: universalism/particularism and status assigned/achieved according to Trompenaars and Hampden-Turner, power distance and femininity/masculinity according to Hofstede, pro-partnership/pro-transaction according to Gesteland. Combining the specificity of family and selected cultural dimensions authors found that in family businesses predominate particularistic behavior, hierarchies, there is also a high power distance but with the advantage of setting pro-partnership and female characteristics. In family businesses, there is also a predominance of assigned status. Conducted analysis leads authors to the conclusion that family businesses, regardless of their country and its cultural differences in which they operate, have common features, which are expressed in the intensity of specific cultural characteristics. The article is a theoretical analysis and will be the basis for forward empirical research 1 m.

Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Objective To evaluate the ability of 3 methods to assess static foot posture to predict rearfoot and midfoot kinematics during gait. Background Static foot posture is commonly used clinically to infer dynamic function. Limitations of static clinical assessments may be overcome through advances in technologies, including commercially available depth cameras. Methods The Foot Posture Index (FPI) of 31 males (average age, 22.5 years) was assessed using visual observation, a 3-D motion-analysis system, and a depth camera. Pearson correlations were used to evaluate relationships between FPI items and rearfoot and midfoot kinematics during walking. The ability of the static variables to predict dynamic function was assessed using multiple linear regression. Results Most FPI items (85%) were not correlated with foot kinematics, regardless of assessment method. There were 6 fair to moderate correlations between visual FPI items and total rearfoot (r = −0.36 to −0.39, P<.05) and midfoot (r = 0.37 to 0.61, P<.05) motion, 2 fair correlations between 3-D motion-analysis FPI items and total midfoot (r = −0.43, P = .02) and peak rearfoot (r = −0.40, P = .03) motion, and 2 fair correlations between the depth-camera FPI items and average rearfoot (r = −0.38 to 0.44, P<.05) motion. Visual assessment of the FPI provided the best prediction model, explaining 37% of the variance in total midfoot inversion/eversion. Conclusion Static measures of foot posture are weakly correlated with rearfoot or midfoot kinematics, and have limited dynamic prediction ability. Our findings suggest that the FPI may not be an accurate representation of rearfoot or midfoot movement during walking, regardless of the measurement technique employed.

Published: August 2015

Abstract
The paper discusses experimental and numerical investigations on intensification of thermal and mass exchange which were performed by National Research Centre “Kurchatov Institute” over the past years. Because of enhancing the power of active power plants, intensification of thermal and mass exchange investigations are performed by a number of Russian research and design organizations. Recently, many designs of heat mass transfer intensifier grids have been proposed. NRC “Kurchatov Institute” has accomplished a large scope of experimental investigations to study efficiency of intensifier grids of various types. The outcomes of experimental investigations can be used in verification of computational models and codes. On the basis of experimental data, we derived correlations to calculate coolant mixing and critical heat flux mixing in rod bundles equipped with intensifier grids. The acquired correlations were integrated in subchannel code SC-INT.

Published: August 2015

Abstract
The Russian KORSAR/GP (hereinafter KORSAR) computer code was developed by a joint team from Alexandrov NITI and OKB “Gidropress” for VVER safety analysis and certified by the Rostechnadzor of Russia in 2009. The code functionality is based on a 1D two-fluid model for calculation of two-phase flows. A 3D CFD module in the KORSAR computer code is being developed by Alexandrov NITI for representing 3D effects in the downcomer and lower plenum during asymmetrical loop operation. The CFD module uses Cartesian grid method with cut cell approach. The paper presents a numerical algorithm for coupling 1D and 3D thermal-hydraulic modules in the KORSAR code. To ensure mass and energy balances at the interface, convective fluxes for 1D module are calculated as a sum of fluxes at corresponding boundary faces of 3D module. Mass balance condition is used to couple pressures in the modules. The combined pressure field is calculated by the multigrid method. The performance efficiency of the algorithm for coupling 1D and 3D modules was demonstrated by solving the benchmark problem of mixing cold and hot flows in a T-junction.

Abstract
Nowadays the demands for accuracy of determining the weighted mean reactor power significantly increases due to implementing programs aimed at increasing installed power at nuclear power plants with WWER-1000 reactors. This accuracy strongly depends on the coolant temperature stratification in the primary circuit pipes, especially in the hot legs. Thus, the acute problem is to investigate the phenomenon on the basis of the full-scale tests experimental data and the calculated data of computational fluid dynamics simulations. The paper presents the full-scale experimental data on the coolant temperature distribution in the hot legs obtained via I&C systems, primarily via in-core monitoring system. These data were obtained at the pilot operation stage of Unit 4 Kalinin nuclear power plant in a stationary mode at nominal power level. To present the results of calculating simulation for the same mode CFD codes are used.
Analysis of heterogeneous boron dilution transients during outages with APROS 3D nodal core model
Authors: Kuopanportti J. 
Published: August 2015

Abstract
A diluted water plug can form inside the primary coolant circuit if the coolant flow has stopped at least temporarily. The source of the clean water can be external or the fresh water can build up internally during boiling/condensing heat transfer mode, which can occur if the primary coolant inventory has decreased enough during an accident. If the flow restarts in the stagnant primary loop, the diluted water plug can enter the reactor core. During outages after the fresh fuel has been loaded and the temperature of the coolant is low, the dilution potential is the highest because the critical boron concentration is at the maximum. This paper examines the behaviour of the core as clean or diluted water plugs of different sizes enter the core during outages. The analysis were performed with the APROS 3D nodal core model of Loviisa VVER-440, which contains an own flow channel and 10 axial nodes for each fuel assembly. The wide-range cross section data was calculated with CASMO-4E. According to the results, the core can withstand even large pure water plugs without fuel failures on natural circulation. The analyses emphasize the importance of the simulation of the backflows inside the core when the reactor is on natural circulation.

Abstract
Mutations in the adaptor protein PSTPIP2 are the cause of the autoinflammatory disease chronic multifocal osteomyelitis in mice. This disease closely resembles the human disorder chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, characterized by sterile inflammation of the bones and often associated with inflammation in other organs, such as the skin. The most critical process in the disease’s development is the enhanced production of IL-1β. This excessive IL-1β is likely produced by neutrophils. In addition, the increased activity of macrophages, osteoclasts, and megakaryocytes has also been described. However, the molecular mechanism of how PSTPIP2 deficiency results in this phenotype is poorly understood. Part of the PSTPIP2 inhibitory function is mediated by protein tyrosine phosphatases from the proline-, glutamic acid-, serine- and threonine-rich (PEST) family, which are known to interact with the central part of this protein, but other regions of PSTPIP2 not required for PEST-family phosphatase binding were also shown to be indispensable for PSTPIP2 function. In this article, we show that PSTPIP2 binds the inhibitory enzymes Csk and SHIP1. The interaction with SHIP1 is of particular importance because it binds to the critical tyrosine residues at the C terminus of PSTPIP2, which is known to be crucial for its PEST-phosphatase–independent inhibitory effects in different cellular systems. We demonstrate that in neutrophils this region is important for the PSTPIP2-mediated suppression of IL-1β processing and that SHIP1 inhibition results in the enhancement of this processing. We also describe deregulated neutrophil response to multiple activators, including silica, Ab aggregates, and LPS, which is suggestive of a rather generalized hypersensitivity of these cells to various external stimulants.

Abstract
Preterm birth (PTB) is firmly linked to inflammation regardless of the presence of infection. Proinflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, are produced in gestational tissues and can locally upregulate uterine activation proteins. Premature activation of the uterus by inflammation may lead to PTB, and IL-1 has been identified as a key inducer of this condition. However, all currently available IL-1 inhibitors are large molecules that exhibit competitive antagonism properties by inhibiting all IL-1R signaling, including transcription factor NF-κB, which conveys important physiological roles. We hereby demonstrate the efficacy of a small noncompetitive (all-d peptide) IL-1R–biased ligand, termed rytvela (labeled 101.10) in delaying IL-1β–, TLR2-, and TLR4-induced PTB in mice. The 101.10 acts without significant inhibition of NF-κB, and instead selectively inhibits IL-1R downstream stress-associated protein kinases/transcription factor c-jun and Rho GTPase/Rho-associated coiled-coil–containing protein kinase signaling pathways. The 101.10 is effective at decreasing proinflammatory and/or prolabor genes in myometrium tissue and circulating leukocytes in all PTB models independently of NF-κB, undermining NF-κB role in preterm labor. In this work, biased signaling modulation of IL-1R by 101.10 uncovers a novel strategy to prevent PTB without inhibiting NF-κB.
Implementing a System at US Patent and Trademark Office to Fully Automate the Conversion of Filing Documents to XML
Authors: Morris Terrel , Gross Mark , Khare Amit 
Published: August 2015

Many governmental and private organizations, such as the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), gather massive collections of content, including legal documents, filings, and contracts. Most such collections consist of images and image-based PDFs; they're not searchable or minable for the critical information that these organizations need to function. As data collections grow larger and are measured in terabytes, conventional conversion techniques-as efficient as they may be-are not economically feasible. The Holy Grail has always been a fully automated process without human interaction. This paper will describe the implementation of such a system at the USPTO. The system, which has been fully functional for over two years, is processing millions of pages each month with turnaround often measured in minutes.
We will describe the approach taken to digitally pre-process incoming page images to improve the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) quality, clean up extraneous materials, and convert extracted text into fully formed XML with tagged structures and linked images. We also present an implementation approach for assembling banks of standard servers that operate in parallel with software to route and load-balance incoming materials, facilitating rapid expansion, flexibility, and scaling as production volume increases.
Finally, we will highlight the impact of these processes and the resulting transformation within the USPTO since the inception of the program.
