description: Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία αποσκοπεί στην μελέτη της επιλεκτικής ανάκτησης των χημικών στοιχείων Σκανδίου, Τιτανίου και Υττρίου, που περιέχονται σε ερυθρά ιλύ. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, η ερυθρά ιλύ αποτελεί ένα παραπροϊόν, το οποίο δημιουργείται στις βιομηχανίες παραγωγής αλουμινίου. Το υλικό αυτό περιέχει πολύτιμα χημικά στοιχεία, όπως σπάνιες γαίες (Rare earth elements , REES) και λοιπά, τα οποία με την εξαγωγή τους από την ερυθρά ιλύ, δύναται να αξιοποιηθούν ξανά. Οι μέθοδοι ανάκτησης των πολυτίμων αυτών μετάλλων βασίζονται στην εκχύλιση αυτών, στο υπερκείμενο διάλυμα οξέος. Εξετάστηκαν τρεις διαφορετικές μέθοδοι επεξεργασίας, η απλή εκχύλιση στερεού-υγρού με ανάδευση, η θερμική έκπλυση και η υδροθερμική επεξεργασία. Να σημειωθεί ότι, η υδροθερμική μελέτη αποτελεί μια καινοτόμο μέθοδο επεξεργασίας της ερυθράς ιλύος. Επιπλέον, στην μέθοδο αυτή σημειώθηκαν τα υψηλότερα ποσοστά ανάκτησης των χημικών στοιχείων. Με τον συνδυασμό οξέων HCL με HΝO3 σημειώθηκαν ποσοστά ανάκτησης Sc, Y, Fe και Ti, τα οποία άγγιζαν το 100%, 78,1%, 25% και 25% αντίστοιχα. Συνοπτικά, μέσω της ανάκτησης των πολύτιμων στοιχείων από δευτερογενείς πηγές επιτυγχάνεται ο έλεγχος της κατανάλωσης των πρώτων υλών και η ισορροπία αυτών στην φύση, άρα και οι βασικοί στόχοι της κυκλικής οικονομίας.

description: Michelangelo Phenomenon provides an interpersonal model of goal pursuits and suggests that close partners sculpt one another and help them move toward their ideal selves. Attachment theory also provides a parallel explanation of how close others can help one another move toward their goals. The purpose of the current research was to look at the influence of attachment on the Michelangelo Phenomenon and test whether it best fit as a predictor, mediator, or moderator. The hypotheses were tested across three studies (two longitudinal and one cross-sectional) using a maximum likelihood estimation path analysis following APIM assumptions. The results provided strong support for the link between attachment and the Michelangelo Phenomenon. Across three studies, attachment acted as a predictor of the Michelangelo Phenomenon with higher levels of attachment anxiety and avoidance predicting lower levels of affirmation. Relevance to therapy and future directions are also discussed.

title: Experimental evaluation of a CPU Live Migration on ARM based Bare metal Instances
Creators: name: Avramidis, I
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2022

description: The advent of 5G and the adoption of digitalization in all areas of industry has resulted in the exponential growth of the Internet of Things (IoTs) devices, increasing the flow of data that travels back and forth to a centralized Cloud data centre for storage, processing, and analysis. This in turn puts pressure on the intermediate edge and core network infrastructure as traditional Cloud Computing is not ready to support this massive amount and diversity of devices and data. This need for faster processing, low latency and higher network consistency makes a case for Edge Computing solutions. However, applying Edge Computing as a solution to overcome the network performance limitations that exist on an “IoT to Cloud” architecture while continuing to use Virtualization technology for system utilization is a bit of an oxymoron. Virtualization increases performance overheads, while sharing network resources among users and applications creates further bandwidth limitations and latency since communications are still served through the same physical network interfaces. The demand for network and system consistency, finer security and privacy has led to the deployment of Bare metal instances. Bare metal instances are nothing more than traditional servers that lack the virtualization layer offering native performance to the user. Furthermore, the rise of the ARM processors and the introduction of cheap low power architectures targeted to the Edge introduce a compelling new candidate platform especially on Bare metal instances. Live migration is a valuable tool for increasing applications and users’ mobility, service availability offering workload balancing and fault tolerance. However, live migration is tied to the existence of a virtualization layer therefore implementing a live migration process on Bare metal instances is very challenging. To the best of our knowledge, there is no existing proposal for a Bare metal live migration scheme on ARM based systems. Therefore, this thesis presents a novel design, implementation, and evaluation of an ARM based live migration scheme for Bare metal instances suitable for modern EdgeComputing Micro Data Centres. Our experimental evaluation confirms the effectiveness of our novel design as well as highlighting the importance on identifying the number of registers that describe and are critical for the reconstruction of the CPU state at the destination.

description: Je nach Fachdisziplin stellt Open Access, bzw. Open Science eine Selbstverständlichkeit oder aber eine große Herausforderung für Wissenschafter*innen dar. Sämtliche Abstufungen dazwischen sind ebenfalls denkbar. Aufgrund unterschiedlicher Traditionen mit der eigenen Forschung und dem Umgang mit den eigenen Forschungsergebnissen aber auch durch die verschiedenen Rechtslagen, man denke nur an urheberrechtsfreie Messdaten und oft rechtlich problematische Videos, ist es schwierig einen allgemeingültigen Weg aufzuzeigen, die eigenen Forschungsergebnisse offen zu stellen. Hier braucht es entsprechende juristische, technische und bibliothekarische Beratung um wenigstens einen Teil der Ergebnisse frei verfügbar zu machen. Im Rahmen der langjährigen Beratungstätigkeit für Datenmanagement soll der Vortrag einen kleinen Einblick geben, welche „Strategien der kleinen Schritte“ möglich sind um den allseits geforderten FAIR-Prinzipien zu entsprechen und die Daten – oder vielleicht in einem ersten Schritt - auch nur die Metadaten zu öffnen und für die breite Nachnutzung zur Verfügung zu stellen. Oft ist den Forschenden nämlich gar nicht bewusst, wie einfach es wäre, die Daten zu öffnen. Die zum Teil bereits verpflichtenden Datenmanagementpläne der Fördergeber verlangen eine intensive Reflexion über den eigenen Umgang mit Forschungsdaten und zeigen durch gezielte Fragen auf, was alles im Forschungszyklus im Bereich der aggregierten und verwendeten Daten zu bedenken ist. Dort kann die Beratung einsetzen und den Wissenschafter*innen helfen, die Daten sichtbarer, auffindbarer und somit auch wertvoller zu machen. Das erfordert jedoch viel persönlichen Einsatz, Schulungen und individuelle Gespräche. In manchen Fachbereichen wird Open Access immer noch sehr kritisch betrachtet, oft auch aus Unwissenheit. Hier hilft es Fakten zu klären und die Vorteile von Open Access und auch von Open Science zu präsentieren. Das funktioniert nicht sofort, aber in kleinen Schritten.
 Der Vortrag wurde am 17.9.2020 im Rahmen der Open Access Tage gehalten.

description: In 2016, cognitive testing of the Agricultural Labor Survey’s computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) script detected a number of issues with the questions used to categorize workers. As a result, revisions were made to the CATI script and a field test was conducted to compare performance of the revised script to the original CATI script. Behavior coding was also performed on a subset of interviews conducted using the original and revised versions of the survey. The goal of the behavior coding was to evaluate interviewer behavior across the two versions of the survey. Results of the behavior coding showed that neither of the instruments were administered appropriately at an acceptable rate. However, questions designed to categorize agricultural workers into major categories and subcategories were administered as worded more often when interviewers used the revised instrument.
TESS Experiments: Solo and Selfish: The Effects of Social Distancing and Rejection Sensitivity on Greedy Behavior

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This experiment was conducted to examine the link between social relationships and greed. Respondents were randomly assigned to one of four conditions in which they were asked to recall and write either about an event that made them feel rejected, accepted, unintelligent, or to write a detailed description of their local grocery store. A total of 304 respondents participated. All respondents then answered a series of questions which assessed interpersonal greedy behavior, greedy intentions against multiple others, and rejection sensitivity. This allowed for comparison of greedy intentions reported by rejection-sensitive participants and that of their less sensitive counterparts.

description: Being able to quickly create realistic honeypots is very useful for obtaining accurate information about attacker behavior. However, creating realistic honeypots requires sanitization of the original system from which the honeypot is derived. To achieve this the use of the Jeeves, a language based on faceted values, is extended to rapidly replace secret values with believable and non-interfering sanitized values. By making several changes to the source code of Jelf, a web server implemented in Jeeves, we are able to quickly and easily create sanitized honeypots. Our experiments show that the sanitized and unsanitized versions of Jelf only differ in response times by less than 1%.

description: An experiment program was created to determine the effectiveness of fibers as reinforcement in concrete beams. Premixed concrete was used instead of creating a new mix design. Steel fibers and synthetic macrofibers were used in this experiment. Three tests were conducted on various elements using three different fiber volume fractions of 0.736%, 1.105%, and 1.473%. Specifically, large scale beams with longitudinal reinforcement were tested to determine shear and moment capacities; small beams without longitudinal reinforcement were tested to find the modulus of rupture; and concrete cylinders were tested to determine the compressive strength. From the cylinder test, it was shown that as the volume fraction increased, the compressive strength decreased. Also, the steel fibers increased the compressive strength significantly. On the other hand, the synthetic macrofibers only increased it 1.04% for a volume fraction of 0.736%. In fact, after the volume fraction increased beyond 0.736% for the synthetic macrofibers, the compressive strength value started to decrease. The small beams test showed that the steel fiber beams had a higher residual capacity than the synthetic macrofiber beams. It was also shown that a fiber volume fraction of 1.105% resulted in the highest modulus of rupture out of the three volume fractions. This fiber volume fraction also showed a higher load capacity than the other volume fractions. It was also shown that the crack location impacted the modulus of rupture. The test on large scale beams showed that as the fiber volume fraction increased, the moment and shear capacities increased as well. It was also shown that steel fiber beams had higher shear and moment capacities as well as maximum load capacity compared to synthetic macrofiber beams.

description: Once a computer system has been infected with malware, restoring it to an uninfected state often requires costly service-interrupting actions such as rolling back to a stable snapshot or reimaging the system entirely. We present CRIU-MR: a technique for restoring an infected server system running within a Linux container to an uninfected state in a service-preserving manner using Checkpoint/Restore in Userspace (CRIU). We modify the CRIU source code to flexibly integrate with existing malware detection technologies so that it can remove suspected malware processes within a Linux container during a checkpoint/restore event. This allows for infected containers with a potentially damaged filesystem to be checkpointed and subsequently restored on a fresh backup filesystem while both removing malware processes and preserving the state of trusted ones. This method can be quickly performed with minimal impact on service availability, restoring active TCP connections and completely removing several types of malware from infected Linux containers.

Institute of Balkan Studies & Centre of Thracology – Bulgarian. Academy of Sciences. Sofia. 2023, p.129-180. ISBN: 978-619-7179-41-5
Abstract: The building of cultural and educational organizations and community centers by the Jewish community is a long process. Based on the activities traditional for the Jewish community, new ones are formed, which lay the foundations of the community work among the Jews as well. In the period up to 1944, several main centers stood out in which Jewish community centers were built-Shumen, Ruse, Varna, Dupnitsa. In the capital Sofia, three community centers are being built successively, which support the development of Jewish culture and traditions. The preserved documents reveal individual moments surrounding the construction of the community centers. The available memories of public figures and intellectuals provide additional information regarding the first steps of the community work in the circles of the Jewish community and its confirmation in the period 1919-1944.

description: Breast cancer (Bca) causes the highest rate of mortality in females owing to the out-of-control cell division in breast cells. In this work, we perform an in-silico screening based on molecular docking and molecular dynamic of curcumin derivatives against ERα. In this study, we carry out, molecular docking of fifty (50) curcumin derivatives having anticancer potential by using virtual screening tools. Ten (10) ligands were selected based on binding energy ranged from (-7.4 kcal/mol to -9 kcal/mol), lower values of inhibition constant (0.23µmol to 3.59µmol), and visualisation of intermolecular interactions. Additionally, we also assess ADMET properties of selected ligands for prediction of their toxicity and drug-likeness. The molecular dynamic simulations (MD) including RMSD, RMSF, Rg, SASA, number of H-bonds and MM-PBSA binding free energy results showed that ligand L2 and L8 bind to estrogen protein ERα more proficiently with good stability over 120 ns. These results suggest lead anticancer compounds L2 (Salicylidenecurcumin) and L8 (Curcumin difluorinated) are the most promising inhibitor against ERα of Bca with ∆Gbind values of (-2.939 and -4.369) kcal/mol. we expect that our findings will evoke the scientific community to further do in-vitro and in-vivo investigations for screened curcumin derivatives against ERα of Bca.

description: The reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) method has been widely used to gain 3D structural ordering information from experimental scattering data. Recently, we have introduced a novel application of RMC, viz., calculating thermodynamic properties of crystalline materials, construction of phase diagram and rapid estimation of the local structural order [Agrahari and Chatterjee, Physical Review E, 104, 044129 (2021).]. The method has been shown to be accurate and orders-of-magnitude faster than standard Monte Carlo simulations – this makes the approach quite promising. However, the error in RMC has never been systematically quantified. The goal here is to perform a thorough investigation into the types of error in RMC-based thermodynamic calculations, assess the relative magnitude of these errors, and develop strategies to improve the accuracy. Some of the conclusions presented are also relevant to previous experiment-based RMC implementations.

description: We used the uploaded questionnaire as the foundation for our semi-structured interviews with industry experts in various industries such as technology, manufacturing, e-commerce, and logistics. The results of the interviews are described in our paper "Seamless Business Processes for Tomorrow’s Enterprises - From Full-fledged ERP systems Towards Modular, Process-centric Business Process Platforms." Abstract Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are at the core of enterprises, enabling business operations by providing standardized digital processes. While current full-fledged ERP systems cover many domains, this also makes these systems complex to run and maintain. Startups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) do not require a comprehensive ERP system, and running only a simplified subset of the functionality is often not supported. Therefore, a new company starts its operations using lightweight solutions such as spreadsheets or individual business applications. Successful startups will outgrow their initial business applications and are forced to migrate to advanced solutions offering support for analytics, international markets, or additional company branches. Such migrations will occur multiple times in a company’s lifecycle, repeatedly putting the company at risk due to disruptions of the entire IT infrastructure. To tackle these interruptions, we pose the following guiding question:
 Which design principles enable a business process platform seamlessly support companies’ business processes while growing?
 In this paper, we first discuss the challenges of current ERP systems in companies of varying sizes, based on 15 interviews with industry experts. Second, we present enablers of future business software and discuss how they relate to current ERP systems’ challenges. Based on this analysis, we propose a vision of a modular, process-centric business platform that promotes business processes to first-class entities. We argue that the enablers and our proposed business platform provide a foundation for research on the next generation of business software for tomorrow’s enterprises.

description: We consider undirected graphs that arise as deterministic functions of stationary point processes such that each point has degree bounded by two. For a large class of point processes and edge-drawing rules, we show that the arising graph has no infinite connected component, almost surely. In particular, this extends our previous result for SINR graphs based on stabilizing Cox point processes and verifies the conjecture of Balister and Bollobás that the bidirectional $k$-nearest neighbor graph of a two-dimensional homogeneous Poisson point process does not percolate for k=2.

description: Located in the central region of the west coast of Baja California Peninsula, the Cedros Archipelago consists of five continental islands (Cedros Island, Natividad, San Benito Este, Medio, and Oeste), with Cedros being the largest island in the Mexican Pacific. This archipelago represents the biogeographic transition zone between the temperate and subtropical region and hence, the end of the geographic distribution of a large number of species. Based on field surveys, literature, and scientific collection records, an exhaustive species list of fishes associated with the archipelago and their biogeographic relationships is presented. The checklist includes 269 species belonging to 191 genera, 97 families, 31 orders, and 4 classes. Of the total species, 105 species were recorded in the field, 57 were the result of the literature review, and 218 species of the records were obtained from collections. A total of 14 biogeographic affinities are presented, where 51% of the species have warm-temperate or cold-temperate affinity and 37% have tropical-subtropical affinity. This work highlights the fish diversity present in a transition zone within the temperate and subtropical marine areas of the Northeastern Pacific. More importantly, it reveals a biogeographic region where a great number of species converge, and may be related with the evolutionary history of different taxa and the geological history of the region.

description: In the midst of the world’s sixth mass extinction event, studies on captive animal welfare are increasingly important since zoos must house healthy populations to ensure the success of ex-situ conservation efforts. Nevertheless, poor enclosure design, stress caused by zoo visitors, and overall unnatural conditions are rampant in captive settings and detrimental to animal well-being. To shed light on this topic, I investigated a 6-member bachelor male unit of gelada monkeys (Theropithecus gelada) at the San Diego Zoo to determine how their behavior and activity budgets were affected by enclosure size, enrichment, diet, zoo visitors, time of day, and temperature. The geladas at the San Diego Zoo spent an average of 40.0% of their time feeding, 30.7% resting, 14.8% grooming, 10.3% moving, 3.3% self-grooming, and 0.9% in other activities. Feeding and grooming patterns were typical, but they rested more and moved less than other captive and wild gelada populations. The geladas in this study never exhibited any abnormal behaviors, were unresponsive to zoo guests who attempted to disturb them, and enclosure usage patterns were not correlated with their distance from zoo guests. As temperatures increased, the geladas did not avoid exposure to the sun nor did they become more sedentary, showing that they adapted well to unnaturally warm temperatures for their species. Overall, my study suggests the geladas have adapted quite well to their exhibit at the San Diego Zoo, a positive indication of their well-being. The present study contributes to our understanding of how primates adapt to life in captivity and supports the notion that quality enrichment and management can result in positive effects on the animals housed at zoos and other captive facilities.

description: Several current functional neuroimaging methods are sensitive to cerebral metabolism and cerebral blood flow (CBF) rather than the underlying neural activity itself. Empirically, the connections between metabolism, flow and neural activity are complex and somewhat counterintuitive: CBF and glycolysis increase more than seems to be needed to provide oxygen and pyruvate for oxidative metabolism, and the oxygen extraction fraction is relatively low in the brain and decreases when oxygen metabolism increases. This work lays a foundation for the idea that this unexpected pattern of physiological changes is consistent with basic thermodynamic considerations related to metabolism. In the context of this thermodynamic framework, the apparent mismatches in metabolic rates and CBF are related to preserving the entropy change of oxidative metabolism, specifically the O2/CO2 ratio in the mitochondria. However, the mechanism supporting this CBF response is likely not due to feedback from a hypothetical O2 sensor in tissue, but rather is consistent with feed-forward control by signals from both excitatory and inhibitory neural activity. Quantitative predictions of the thermodynamic framework, based on models of O2 and CO2 transport and possible neural drivers of CBF control, are in good agreement with a wide range of experimental data, including responses to neural activation, hypercapnia, hypoxia and high-altitude acclimatization.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Key relationships between non-invasive functional neuroimaging and the underlying neuronal activity’.

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the public’s acceptance of presumed consent for emergency treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Respondents were randomly assigned to one of four hypothetical emergency health scenarios in which they had either suffered an acute ischemic stroke or sudden cardiac arrest and asked either (1) whether they would want the intervention, or (2) whether they would want to be given the intervention even if informed consent could not be obtained. A total of 2,154 adults age 50 and over participated. All respondents also answered measures of patient-directed decision-making, attitudes regarding disability and longevity, confidence in the medical system, and attitudes about the use of statistical information in decision-making. This allowed for comparison of acceptance of presumed consent for stroke treatment and that of more life-threatening (cardiac arrest) treatments.

description: Background. The Cortez Province (CP) is located in the transitional warm-temperate/subtropical region that allows the ichthyological component inhabiting it to be a mixture of elements of different biogeographic affinities. Since the first systematic analysis of the fish fauna of the Gulf of California in the 1960’s a major portion of the endemic species was recognized. Subsequently, a total of 31 new endemic species have been described in the CP. This study constitutes an amendment of the fish component of the CP, including the most relevant ecological attributes of the species, along with an updated taxonomic list. Materials and methods. A comprehensive literature review was made, considering current biological knowledge, and taxonomic status of the endemic species from the CP. Those fish species with restricted distribution ranges, falling within the limits of this province, were considered endemic. Additionally, and to recognize the dominant ecological attributes of the CP endemic species, the preferential habitat, bathymetric distribution, the reproduction strategy, and the maximum total length (TL) were recorded. Results. Seventy-nine endemic species were recognized and grouped in 13 orders, 29 families, and 59 genera. Gobiidae (12), Chaenopsidae (8), and Labrisomidae (7) are the families with the highest species richness, and Sebastes (6 species), the most diverse genus. Forty-five percent of the species are associated with coral and rocky reefs, with 35% distributed within the first 10 m depth layer. The dominant reproduction strategies are: oviparous with benthic eggs and pelagic larval phase (48.7%), and oviparous with pelagic eggs (25.6%). More than half of the species (52%) are shorter than 10 cm (total length). Conclusion. The list of endemic species presented in this study is not conclusive, still undescribed species have not been included, detected differences (morphologic and/or genetic) in several species with disjunct populations may increase the diversity of this province.
LES DÉTERMINANTS DE LA PROFITABILITÉ DES BANQUES : ANALYSE EMPIRIQUE DANS LA ZONE UEMOA

description: Cet article analyse les déterminants de la profitabilité des banques dans la zone UEMOA, en comparant l’impact du Produit Net Bancaire (PNB) et du Résultat Net (RN). Utilisant un modèle dynamique en données de panel (méthode GMM système) sur 133 banques observées entre 2010 et 2020, l’étude révèle que le PNB (coefficient 0,357) influence davantage la rentabilité que le RN (0,279). Les variables micro-bancaires (crédits, dépôts) et macroéconomiques (croissance du PIB) ont un effet positif significatif, tandis que l’inflation et les charges d’exploitation affectent négativement la performance. Les résultats valident des théories comme la structure du marché et la théorie de l’agence, soulignant l’importance d’un équilibre entre concurrence et efficacité opérationnelle. Les implications managériales incluent l’optimisation des coûts, la gestion proactive des risques de crédit et le renforcement des produits générateurs de commissions. L’étude offre des pistes pour améliorer la stabilité financière et la résilience du secteur bancaire ouest-africain face aux chocs économiques.

description: Die spätantike, frühbyzantinische Medizin (4.–7. Jh. n. Chr.) ist vor allem durch die drei Autoren Oribasius von Pergamon, Aetius von Amida und Paulus von Aegina geprägt, die allesamt Werke „enzyklopädischen“ Charakters verfassten. Während sich in der Forschung lange Zeit die Auffassung hielt, dass diese Autoren lediglich altes Material konservierten und abgesehen von dem glücklichen Umstand, dass durch ihre Werke einige Texte früherer Epochen auf uns gekommen sind, die andernfalls gänzlich verloren wären, nicht von Interesse seien, hat es sich mittlerweile etabliert, diese Früchte spätantiker Medizin als eigenständige literarische Produkte zu untersuchen. Diese neuere Forschung hat gezeigt, dass Oribasius, Aetius und Paulus ihre Quellentexte keineswegs nur blind kopiert, sondern durchaus Veränderungen, Neukontextualisierungen und Ergänzungen vorgenommen haben. Vor diesem Hintergrund zeigt der vorliegende Aufsatz anhand ausgewählter Textbeispiele, wie in den medizinischen „Enzyklopädien“ durch Ausschluss, Ablehnung und Annahme von tradiertem Wissen genau dieses Wissen in Bewegung geblieben ist und wie gerade eine Analyse des Zusammenspiels von Wissen, Transfer und Negation hilft, die enorme Eigenleistung dieser spätantiken „Enzyklopädien“ zu erkennen.
