description: Nachdem die Diskussionen um das Konzept der Gruppenarbeit in den zurückliegenden 30 Jahren in Deutschland mehrfach zwischen großen Hoffnungen und anschließender Desillusionierung oszillierten, scheint es mittlerweile an der Zeit, auf der Basis einer breiten quantitativen Empirie eine Zwischenbilanz zu den qualifikatorischen Effekten dieser Form der Arbeitsorganisation zu ziehen. Da die Zukunft der Industriearbeit in ihren Qualifikationsanforderungen Gegenstand vielfältiger Überlegungen ist, versucht der vorliegende Beitrag darzustellen, in welcher Beziehung unterschiedliche Formen der Gruppenarbeit mit industrieller Facharbeit stehen. Dabei wird deutlich, dass viele euphorische Erwartungen hinsichtlich einer Renaissance der Facharbeit in Folge der Verbreitung von Gruppenarbeit in der Empirie keine Entsprechung finden.

description: In an abstract framework, a new concept on time operator, ultra-weak time operator, is introduced, which is a concept weaker than that of weak time operator. Theorems on the existence of an ultra-weak time operator are established. As an application of the theorems, it is shown that Schroedinger operators H with potentials V obeying suitable conditions, including the Hamiltonian of the hydrogen atom, have ultra-weak time operators. Moreover, a class of Borel measurable functions $f$ such that $f(H)$ has an ultra-weak time operator is found.

description: In the study, the possible effect of sodium valproate (NaVP) on urethane-induced lung tumors in mice has been evaluated. BALB/c mice (n = 120; 4–6 weeks old, both sexes) were used in the following groups: 1) urethane-treated, 2) urethane–NaVP-treated, 3) only NaVP-treated, 4) control. In the same groups, castrated male mice (n = 48) were investigated. Urethane was given by intraperitoneal injections 10 mg/mouse, twice a week, the total dose 50 mg/mouse. In NaVP-treated mice, the 0.4 % NaVP aqueous solution was offered to mice ad libitum. The duration of the experiment was 6 months. The number of tumors per mouse in urethane–NaVP-treated males was significantly higher than in those treated with urethane only (13.82 ± 1.12 vs 6.77 ± 0.43, p < 0.0001). No significant difference in the number of tumors per mouse was revealed while comparing the female urethane- and urethane–NaVP-treated groups (6.50 ± 0.79 vs 8.15 ± 0.55, p = 0.105). No difference in the number of tumors per mouse was found in urethane–NaVP-treated castrated males as compared with urethane-treated castrated males. However, in the urethane–aVP-treated castrated males the number of tumors per mouse was significantly lower than in analogous non-castrated males (7.8 ± 1.67 vs 13.82 ± 1.12, p < 0.01). NaVP combined with urethane potentiates urethane tumorigenicity in BALB/c non-castrated but not in female and castrated male mice. These data indicate an important role of testosterone in the urethane-NaVP induced lung tumorigenesis.

description: Hormonal homeostasis is essential for a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Elimination and detoxification of xenobiotics, such as drugs introduced into the human body, could disrupt the balance of hormones due to the induction of drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) and transporters. Pregnane X receptor (PXR, NR1I2) functions as a master xenobiotic receptor involved in drug metabolism and drug-drug interactions by its coordinated transcriptional regulation of phase I and phase II DMEs and transporters. Recently, increasing evidences indicate that PXR can also mediate the endocrine disrupt or function and thus impact the integrity of the endocrine system. This review focuses primarily on the recent advances in our understanding of the function of PXR in glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, androgen and estrogen homeostasis. The elucidation of PXR-mediated drug-hormone interactions might have important therapeutic implications in dealing with hormone-dependent diseases and safety assessment of drugs.

description: Die Magnetresonanz-Spektroskopie ist eine nicht-invasive Methode zur Messung biochemischer Informationen im lebenden Organismus. Diese detaillierten Informationen über den Stoffwechsel haben einen sehr großen diagnostischen Wert in der Medizin. Gemessen wird jeweils der Gehalt bestimmter, im Stoffwechsel vorkommender Moleküle (Metabolite). Im Fall von schwach konzentrierten Metaboliten mit sich gegenseitig überlappenden Signalen werden zur eindeutigen Quantifizierung selektive Anregungstechniken benötigt. Hierzu können sogenannte Multiquantenfilter verwendet werden. In dieser Arbeit wird die selektive Anregung des Metaboliten Laktat untersucht. Unter realen experimentellen Bedingungen treten neben den Vorteilen von Multiquantenfiltern jedoch auch erhebliche Nachteile, wie z. B. ein großer Signalverlust, auf. Die Funktionsweise eines herkömmlichen Multiquantenfilters wird hier quantitativ untersucht. Weiterhin werden Optimierungen vorgestellt, die die Effizienz der Methode deutlich erhöhen. Die Optimierungen basieren auf der Anwendung der Optimal Control Theorie zur Entwicklung optimierter Anregungspulse in einer NMR-Pulssequenz. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigen, dass eine robustere, effizientere Laktatanregung bei gleichzeitiger sehr guter Unterdrückung unerwünschter Signale unter in-vivo Bedingungen mit der optimierten Methode möglich ist.

Bei diesem Forschungsinstitut handelt es sich um die von 1935 bis ca. 1941 existierende und von Wilhelm Brepohl geleitete "Forschungsstelle für das Volkstum im Ruhrgebiet". Zunächst werden Entstehung und Konzeption der Forschungsstelle im Überblick beschrieben. In den folgenden drei Kapiteln werden das theoretische Programm, die methodischen Grundlagen sowie das wissenschafts- und gesellschaftspolitische Programm der industriellen Volkskunde beschrieben und interpretiert. In der abschließenden Diskussion des Schlußkapitels wird festgehalten, daß in der Forschungsstelle eine (Sozial-)Wissenschaft betrieben wurde, die von ihrer Programmatik und ihren Intentionen her vollkommen auf die Bedürfnisse der billige Arbeitskräfte suchenden Wirtschaft einerseits, auf die faschistische Rassen-, Betriebs-, und Expansionspolitik andererseits zugeschnitten war. Der Beitrag endet mit einem Ausblick auf die Zeit nach 1945, in der die Forschungsstelle in der 1946 gegründeten Sozialforschungsstelle Dortmund aufging.

description: Finite trigonometric sums occur in various branches of physics, mathematics, and their applications. These sums may contain various powers of one or more trigonometric functions. Sums with one trigonometric function are known, however sums with products of trigonometric functions can get complicated and may not have a simple expressions in a number of cases. Some of these sums have interesting properties and can have amazingly simple value. However, only some of them are available in literature. We obtain a number of such sums using method of residues.

An Assessment of Factors Affecting Participation of Women in Management Position: the Case of Ethio Telecom Company
Creators: name: G/Michael, Birikti
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2014

description: Women face multi-faceted challenges to participate in management position due to different factors. The purpose of this research is to examine women's possibilities to advance to leadership positions. This thesis is based on the fact that there are less female leaders than male leaders, both in the country and in the company. The objective of this study is assessing the factors affecting women's participation in management position in selected ethio telecom Company. It also aimed to examine the major barriers that hinder women's participation from leadership and to evaluate the impact of gender gap in managerial position. In order to meet these objectives, qualitative research methods were used. The data was collected by interviewing and conducting questionnaires for top management position of the company to explore the current gender practices in the company and assessing the factors for low representation of women in managerial position. Consequently, non-probability purposive sampling was used to select the respondents and discussants of the study. The findings showed that women are highly underrepresented in higher level positions due to some factors such as educational gap, socio- cultural attitude; organizational culture and company recruitment and promotion practice are the major ones. Due to this women's are unable to get role model and less confidence for the position. Thus, in order to minimize the existing gender gaps in decision making place, the company needs to implement affirmative action at managerial level, giving quota number for women at entrance stage as well as clearly needs to set the criteria while assigning employees at managerial positions

In a first result we show that there are infinitely many global continua detaching from the curve of radial solutions with any prescribed number of nodal zones. Next, using the fixed point index in cone, we produce nonradial solutions with a new type of symmetry. This result also applies to solutions with fixed signed, showing that the set of solutions to the Lane Emden problem has a very rich and complex structure.

Die demografische Entwicklung zeigt, dass immer mehr betagten Menschen dieser Übergangsprozess bevorsteht. Es wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie ein präventives psychomotorisches Konzept zur Stärkung und Stabilisierung des Selbstkonzeptes alter Menschen, welche den Übergangsprozess noch nicht abgeschlossen haben, gestaltet sein müsste. Mittels Aufarbeitung von entsprechender Fachliteratur wird das Konzept "Gemeinsam in Bewegung" entwickelt und anschliessend in einem Alters- und Pflegeheim erprobt. Das Konzept beinhaltet die Methoden Bewegungserfahrung, Gruppenerleben, Freiraum für Selbstwirksamkeitserfahrung und Biografiearbeit, welche unter Einbezug der psychomotorischen Grundhaltung dazu beitragen sollen, den Übergangsprozess vom selbständigen Wohnen ins Heim positiv zu bewältigen.

description: Pattern sampling has been proposed as a potential solution to the infamous pattern explosion. Instead of enumerating all patterns that satisfy the constraints, individual patterns are sampled proportional to a given quality measure. Several sampling algorithms have been proposed, but each of them has its limitations when it comes to 1) flexibility in terms of quality measures and constraints that can be used, and/or 2) guarantees with respect to sampling accuracy. We therefore present Flexics, the first flexible pattern sampler that supports a broad class of quality measures and constraints, while providing strong guarantees regarding sampling accuracy. To achieve this, we leverage the perspective on pattern mining as a constraint satisfaction problem and build upon the latest advances in sampling solutions in SAT as well as existing pattern mining algorithms. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is applicable to a variety of pattern languages, which allows us to introduce and tackle the novel task of sampling sets of patterns. We introduce and empirically evaluate two variants of Flexics: 1) a generic variant that addresses the well-known itemset sampling task and the novel pattern set sampling task as well as a wide range of expressive constraints within these tasks, and 2) a specialized variant that exploits existing frequent itemset techniques to achieve substantial speed-ups. Experiments show that Flexics is both accurate and efficient, making it a useful tool for pattern-based data exploration.

description: In Ethiopia, Community health workers workforce was adopted as addressing the health care needs of underserved communities. Despite the vast experience with CHWs the burden of disease continues to increase in magnitude and diversity and relatively little scientific evidence is available to answer basic questions notably the determinants influencing the performance of CHW. However both the performance of CHWs as change agents and the feasibility of implementing and sustaining large-scale CHW programs have been called into question. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that influencing performance of CHWs in Addis Ababa city administration health bureau. The objectives of the study were to assess the influence of social-cultural, health system practice and policy, economic factors on the performance of CHWs in Addis Ababa city administration health bureau. A descriptive research design was used. Quantitative data collection methods were used. Systematic sampling method was used to identify the respondents. Quantitative data was collected from 145 community health workers of which 140 responded to the questionnaires. Findings showed that from socio cultural aspects, weak family support and from health system practice, too much workload. Also economically (payment, supplies and incentives) were not satisfied CHWS .There should be improved payments, incentives, supplies and workloads needs.

description: We explicitly construct static black hole solutions to the fully non-linear, D=4, Einstein-Maxwell-AdS equations that have no continuous spatial symmetries. These black holes have a smooth, topologically spherical horizon (section), but without isometries, and approach, asymptotically, global AdS spacetime. They are interpreted as bound states of a horizon with the Einstein-Maxwell-AdS solitons recently discovered, for appropriate boundary data. In sharp contrast with the uniqueness results for Minkowski electrovacuum, the existence of these black holes shows that single, equilibrium, BH solutions in AdS-electrovacuum admit an arbitrary multipole structure.

description: Excerpts from the paper: A survey conducted by USDA in 1975 was designed to estimate 1974 costs of production (COP) in major grain and cotton regions. Counties included in the survey were primarily those with 10 percent or more of their total land area in cropland. The lower limit of farm size permitted in the sample, ranged from 50 cropland acres in the Southeast, to 400 cropland acres in the Northwest; the upper limit of farm sizes ranged from 5,000 to 10,000 cropland acres, Southeast to Northwest. The data gathered in the COP survey were stratified, with cropland acreage as the basis for stratification. For each of 40 subregions, the data were divided into one-third of the farms in each of three size categories. Table 1 gives the range of cropland acreage for each size group in each subregion; it also gives the number of observations in each cell.

description: Achieving impurity and helium ash control is a crucial issue in the path towards fusion-grade magnetic confinement devices, and this is particularly the case of helical reactors, whose low-collisionality ion-root operation scenarios usually display a negative radial electric field which is expected to cause inwards impurity pinch. In these work we discuss, based on experimental measurements and standard predictions of neoclassical theory, how plasmas of very low ion collisionality, similar to those observed in the impurity hole of the Large Helical Device, can be an exception to this general rule, and how a negative radial electric field can coexist with an outward impurity flux. This interpretation is supported by comparison with documented discharges available in the International Stellarator-Heliotron Profile Database, and it can be extrapolated to show that achievement of high ion temperature in the core of helical devices is not fundamentally incompatible with low core impurity content.

description: Proton-conducting porous ceramic membranes were synthesized via a polymer-derived ceramic route and probed in a microbial fuel cell (MFC). Their chemical compositions were altered by adding carbon allotropes including graphene oxide (GO) and multiwall carbon nanotubes into a polysiloxane matrix as filler materials. Physical characteristics of the synthesized membranes such as porosity, hydrophilicity, mechanical stability, ion exchange capacity, and oxygen mass transfer coefficient were determined to investigate the best membrane material for further testing in MFCs. The ion exchange capacity of the membrane increased drastically after adding 0.5 wt% of GO at an increment of 9 fold with respect to that of the non-modified ceramic membrane, while the oxygen mass transfer coefficient of the membrane decreased by 52.6%. The MFC operated with this membrane exhibited a maximum power density of 7.23 W m-3 with a coulombic efficiency of 28.8%, which was significantly higher than the value obtained using polymeric Nafion membrane. Hence, out of all membranes tested in this study the GO-modified polysiloxane based ceramic membranes are found to have a potential to replace Nafion membranes in pilot scale MFCs.

description: In the present work, a high surface area SiC(O)-based ceramic powder was synthesized upon thermal transformation of a polymer-derived macromolecular precursor, which was obtained by the chemical modification of a allylhyldrido polycarbosilane with poly(ethylene glycol) methaacrylate under argon environment. The pyrolysis of developed precursor led to the formation of amorphous and high surface area SiC(O)-based ceramic powder with in situ generated micro/meso-porosity. The specific surface area of the obtained powders depends on the processing temperature. It decreases from 363 to 122 m2/g as the pyrolysis temperature increases from 600 to 1200°C, respectively. Furthermore the promising samples were fabricated using pressing technique, which led to crack-free SiC(O) monoliths on subsquent heat treatment. The present study also emphasizes the potential of produced SiC(O) ceramic powder to support NiO catalyst. The impregnation method were used to produce high surface area NiO@SiC(O) ceramic powder (NiO as a catalyst; SiC(O) as a catalyst support) for further catalytic applications. Interestingly, the distribution of the NiO was shown to strongly depend on the oxygen content present in the SiC(O) matrix. Thus, larger oxygen contents induce homogeneously distributed flower-like NiO catalyst onto SiC(O).

description: A stochastic representation of the dynamics of open quantum systems, suitable for non-perturbative system-reservoir interaction, non-Markovian effects and arbitrarily driven systems is presented. It includes the case of driving on timescales comparable to or shorter than the reservoir correlation time, a notoriously difficult but relevant case in the context of quantum information processing and quantum thermodynamics. A previous stochastic approach is re-formulated for the case of finite reservoir correlation and response times, resulting in a numerical simulation strategy exceeding previous ones by orders of magnitude in efficiency. Although the approach is based on a memory formalism, the dynamical equations propagated in the simulations are time-local. This leaves a wide range of choices in selecting the system to be studied and the numerical method used for propagation. For a series of tests, the dynamics of the spin-boson system is computed in various settings including strong external driving and Landau-Zener transitions.

description: Private wings have been implemented on a small scale within Ethiopian public hospitals. These 'differentiated amenities' involve the provision of better services to patients who, under a fee-for-service reimbursement mechanisms, pay out-of-pocket or through medical insurance. The public sector objectives for these wings include retention of highly qualified health personnel, additional revenue generation as well as wider benefits to the public health system, leading to better access for middle income class population groups and development of new models of service delivery which will help to finance the health system. According to the status report of health care financing synthesis report in 2005 EC, Ethiopia has about 45 hospitals which have established private wings and out of these seven hospitals are in Addis; among these hospitals in Addis, four are administered by Addis Ababa city Administration. The study was conducted with the objective of investigating Private wing Practices and Challenges of Hospitals in Addis Ababa and to identify the main challenging factors. In order to achieve this objective, primary data were collected from four selected hospitals administered in Addis Ababa City Administration. Sixty patients, sixty health professionals, four Chief Executive Officers (CEO's) through questionnaires, key informant interview (KII) with concerned bodies and Patient Exit Interviews were used to gather relevant information directly from service users. Secondary data were collected from HSFR (Health Sector Financing Reform) guidelines, TAG (Technical Advisory Group) reports, and PW (Private Wing) performance reports. Results of the study indicate that conflict of interest, Existence of Contextual differences in the operation of private wing, Unfair revenue sharing and unequal service provision, Gaps in legal frame work, Demand for specialized and selective services, Unregulated fee levels for private wing services, Absence of systematized regulatory mechanisms are important and challenging factors that influence the private wing system. Finally, to enhance the existing functioning system of private wings, this study made recommendations Federal Ministry of Health and Hospital's management to deliberate considering the resources available for the sustainability and success of private wings.

description: We report on a new synthesis route for pure Sm2O3 and Sm2O3-Ni xerogels by modifying the well-known epoxide addition method. The resulting xerogels are used to prove the suitability of samaria as a highly effective catalyst support and to determine the optimal Ni loading. Therefore, a set of five catalysts with Ni loadings between 4 wt % and 89 wt % Ni was prepared and fully characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 physisorption, transmission electron microscopy and H2 temperature-programmed reduction. Catalytic measurements reveal that the catalyst with 39 wt % Ni shows the best catalytic performance, outperforming even highly active literature known systems. Stability runs indicate that the catalyst deactivates independently of the Ni loading as well as conversion level over 600 min due to, most likely, carbonate formation. This deactivation, however, is reversible by a simple regeneration step. As shown by simultaneous CO2/CO methanation measurements, the Ni−Sm2O3 catalysts are also highly efficient for CO methanation. In this case, CO is preferentially converted to methane compared to CO2.

description: In order to investigate the wicking performance of cryogenic propellants within metallic screens for space liquid acquisition devices (LADs), a vertical wicking experiment was carried out in a one-species test system with liquid nitrogen (LN2). Screens of Dutch twill weave (DTW) type 200 × 1400 were tested in both warp and shute directions. Two different degrees of superheat (∼2 K and ∼25 K) were achieved with a novel porous cooling shield element. A modified one-dimensional macroscopic model is proposed which considers the thermal effect of the solid weave and the vapor environment. Good agreement with experimental data is achieved. Results show that the cryo-wicking process is sensitive to the superheat condition. The wicking velocity as well as the maximum wicking height decreases with increasing superheat. For the same superheat condition, the wicking velocity was always higher in the warp direction than that in the shute direction.

description: Ceramic materials find use in many fields including the life sciences and environmental engineering. For example, ceramic membranes have shown to be promising filters for water treatment and virus retention. The analysis of such materials, however, remains challenging. In the present study, the potential of three vibrational spectroscopic methods for characterizing functionalized ceramic membranes for water treatment is evaluated. For this purpose, Raman scattering, infrared (IR) absorption, and solvent infrared spectroscopy (SIRS) were employed. The data were analyzed with respect to spectral changes as well as using principal component analysis (PCA). The Raman spectra allow an unambiguous discrimination of the sample types. The IR spectra do not change systematically with functionalization state of the material. Solvent infrared spectroscopy allows a systematic distinction and enables studying the molecular interactions between the membrane surface and the solvent.

description: L’articolo si propone di esplorare alcuni aspetti dell’esperienza dell’apprendimento a distanza o, meglio, dell’apprendimento “di emergenza”, iniziata durante il primo blocco dovuto alla pandemia di Covid-19, è tuttora in corso nelle scuole italiane con la cosiddetta Didattica Digitale Integrata (DDI). Tra gli esperimenti condotti individualmente dagli insegnanti, immediatamente reattivi anche se presi alla sprovvista da questo evento, e dalle relativamente tardive indicazioni del Ministero dell'Istruzione, gli studenti, le vere vittime di questa situazione, si sono sostanzialmente abituati a pratiche e metodologie che mettono in secondo piano il valore essenziale della relazione educativa. Anche se non siamo in grado di prevedere gli effetti a lungo termine della pandemia, è comunque chiaro che la perdita della qualità complessiva dell’esperienza di apprendimento/insegnamento si aggiungerà ai problemi psicologici e sociali legati all’isolamento.

This paper aims to explore some aspects of distance learning experience or, better, ‘emergency’ learning, started during the first lockdown due to Covid-19 pandemic.  It is still currently ongoing in Italian schools with the so-called Integrated Digital Education (DDI). Among experiments carried out individually by teachers, immediately reactive even though taken aback by this event, and the relatively late Ministry of Education’s directions, the students, the true victims of this situation, have essentially become accustomed to practices and methodologies that place the essential value of the educational relationship in the background. Even if we are not able to predict the long-term effects of the pandemic, it is still clear that the loss of the overall quality of learning/teaching experience will be added to the psychological and social issues associated with isolation.

description: In this note we prove that in a metric measure space $(X, d, m)$ verifying the measure contraction property with parameters $K \in \mathbb{R}$ and $1< N< \infty$, any optimal transference plan between two marginal measures is induced by an optimal map, provided the first marginal is absolutely continuous with respect to $m$ and the space itself is essentially non-branching. In particular this shows that there exists a unique transport plan and it is induced by a map.

description: Excerpts from the paper: Irrigation pumping energy requirements are a function of: 1. The volume of irrigation water pumped. 2. The feet of lift--the elevation difference between the water source and the field being irrigated. 3. The efficiency of the irrigation system (percentage of the water applied that is stored in the root zone). Therefore, everything else equal, pumping energy can be conserved by reducing the volume of irrigation water and the irrigation lift, and employing an irrigation system that utilizes the lowest pumping pressure to achieve a given level of irrigation efficiency.

description: Auf Grund der weiterhin voranschreitenden Digitalisierung findet immer mehr Kommunikation über Computernetzwerke statt. Bei diesen Datenübertragungen ist es wichtig, dass sie sicher vonstattengehen. Insbesondere wenn sensible Daten übertragen werden, wie zum Beispiel Bank- daten oder Firmengeheimnisse. Deshalb müssen geeignete Verfahren verwendet werden, um die Datenübertragungen abzusichern. Ein Verfahren zur Absicherung von Datenübertragungen ist die Verwendung von Record-/Replay-Funktionalität virtueller Maschinen, um damit Angreifer zu erkennen. Dabei wird eine virtuelle Maschine aufgezeichnet und parallel dazu, mit geringer Zeitverzögerung, wieder abgespielt. Durch den Vergleich ausgehender Netzwerkpakete werden korrumpierte Systeme während der Ausführung dieses System erkannt. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, ein solches System auf Basis der Open Source Software QEMU zu realisieren. Hierfür mus- sten, neben Erweiterungen an QEMU, zusätzlich Erweiterungen am Linux-Kernel durchgeführt werden. Dabei handelt es sich ebenfalls um Open Source Software, die innerhalb der virtuellen Maschinen eingesetzt wird. In Kombination mit weiterer, eigens für diese Arbeit geschriebener Software, konnte ein Aufbau erstellt werden, der eine Überprüfung der Sicherheitsziele Inte- grity und Confidentiality ermöglicht. Dieser wurde dafür verwendet, um eine SSH-Verbindung zu einem Server aufzubauen, der zuerst aufgezeichnet und im Anschluss erfolgreich wieder ab- gespielt wurde. Der prototypische Aufbau zeigt, dass eine Umsetzung nicht nur möglich ist, sondern auch für die Verwendung bei nicht-trivialen Aufgaben, unter Einsatz kryptografischer Verfahren, geeignet ist.
