description: The rotational use of insecticides with diverse modes of action in indoor residual spraying (IRS) is pivotal for enhancing malaria vector control and addressing insecticide resistance. A key factor in national malaria vector control/elimination programmes is the rate at which these insecticides decay. VECTRON™ T500, with broflanilide as its active ingredient, is a recently developed candidate insecticide formulation which has shown promising results in certain phase II experimental hut trials. However, its residual efficacy across different settings has not been thoroughly investigated. This study evaluated the efficacy of VECTRON™ T500 on various wall surfaces (mud, dung, paint, and cement) and assessed its decay rates over time in Ethiopia.

Subjects: subject: common mean vector confidence set exact test local power meta-analysis

description: This paper addresses the problem of making inferences about a common mean vector from several independent multivariate normal populations with unknown and unequal dispersion matrices. We propose an unbiased estimator of the common mean vector, along with its asymptotic estimated variance, which can be used to test hypotheses and construct confidence ellipsoids, both of which are valid for large samples. Additionally, we discuss an approximate method based on generalized p-values. The paper also presents exact test procedures and methods for constructing exact confidence sets for the common mean vector, with a comparison of the local power of these exact tests. The performance of the proposed methods is demonstrated through a simulation study and an application to data from the Current Population Survey (CPS) Annual Social and Economic (ASEC) Supplement 2021 conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

title: Freestream turbulence effects on low Reynolds number NACA 0012 airfoil laminar separation bubble and lift generation

Subjects: subject: Freestream turbulence Laminar separation bubble Laminar-turbulent transition Low Reynolds number Numerical model fidelity

description: Laminar separation bubbles (LSB's) over the suction surface of a wing at low Reynolds number (O(10⁴) - O(10⁶) based on the airfoil chord length) can significantly affect the aerodynamic performance of the wing, and pose a unique challenge for the predictive capabilities of simulation tools due to their high sensitivity to flow environments and wing surface conditions. In this work a series of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) low-order, and high-order accurate unstructured-grid-based numerical methods with varying model fidelity levels were used to study LSB physics over a NACA 0012 airfoil both in a clean freestream and in a turbulent freestream at a chord-based Reynolds number of 12,000. Lift production and time-averaged flow fields were compared with available experimental results. A major discovery is that in clean freestream flow a 3D high-order numerical scheme is necessary to capture LSB physics. This is due to the sensitivity of LSB-induced laminar-turbulent transition to flow conditions and boundary geometry at low Reynolds number. In freestream flows with moderate background turbulence (~5%), 2D simulations failed to capture subtle 3D flow physics due to their intrinsic limitation, but can reasonably predict time-averaged airfoil performance. Similarity and distinction between freestream vortex-LSB interaction in 2D and eddy-LSB interaction in 3D were explained. The role of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability and Klebanoff modes in the transition of 3D airfoils were shown to be critical for understanding laminar-turbulent transition and LSB formation on airfoils in clean and turbulent freestreams.

description: Background: Data integrity is a priority in any internet research study; it should be maintained to protect the safety and privacy of human participants and to maintain the validity and reliability of research findings. However, one noteworthy risk of web-based research is fraudulent respondent activity. When investigators must utilize anonymous web-based recruitment techniques to reach hidden and expanded populations, steps should be taken to safeguard the integrity of data collected.Objective: The purpose of this paper is to present a novel protocol in the form of an anonymous web-based research data integrity plan (DIP) protocol that outlines steps for securing data integrity while conducting anonymous web-based data collection.Methods: In this paper, we discuss a protocol regarding the development and implementation of a specific DIP in response to fraudulent activity in an original large-scale mixed methods study launched in April 2021. Four primary steps, each with a set of affiliated procedures, are presented: (1) defining the risks, (2) planning research protocols, (3) securing data collection and recruitment, and (4) determining enrollment.Results: Following the relaunch of a large-scale original study and implementation of the DIP protocol, preliminary analyses demonstrated no fraudulent activity. A pre-post analysis is underway to evaluate the effectiveness of the DIP strategies from February 2022 through May 2023.Conclusions: Implementing the DIP protocol could save valuable research time, provides a process to examine data critically, and enables the contribution of rigorous findings to various health fields.

description: Colleges and universities are under increasing pressure to retain students and increase degree completion amid multiple social and economic threats to undergraduate stu-dent enrollment. A sense of belonging, motivation, and confidence are foundational to student success and essential components of strategic approaches to enrollment challenges. Microaffirmations, brief acts communicating care, listening, and support, can be a powerful tool within these efforts for promoting belonging. This study exam-ined how 350 undergraduate students experienced microaffirmations and the meaning of the microaffirmations to their educational lives. Findings indicate that students identify multiple forms of microaffirmations and that these promote positive benefits, including perceived improvement in academic performance, persistence to remain in college, and assistance in navigating challenges. In short, microaffirmations provide students with the confidence to continue by influencing their perspectives on self- efficacy and support

description: This school-university partnership collaborative project was student-centered andfocused on supporting learning goals for three different groups of students through knowledgesharing and translating theory into practice. Students from three levels of education (high school, undergraduate, and graduate students) engaged in a multi-semester, integrated arts project that culminated in the performance of film and dance representations of social justice topics in education. The project engaged the community through the public performance and connected school, university and the community to advocate for social justice and the arts. We share the student learning outcomes from this project to demonstrate that the school-university partnership can provide valid pedagogical support for the collaborators. The mutual non-hierarchicalrelationship between the partners was the key to the success of the collaboration.

description: Interaction of immunoinhibitory molecules, lymphocyte activating gene-3 (LAG-3) and programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes with their respective ligands, contributes to an exhausted immune phenotype. However, soluble LAG-3 (sLAG-3) enhances immunity by inducing dendritic cell maturation by binding MHC-II associated with lipid rafts. The first part of this thesis assessed the importance of MHC-II/lipid rafts versus peptide/MHC-II complexes (pMHC-II) as sLAG-3 ligands. Analysis of sLAG-3 binding to B-cell lines was done using flow cytometry. Results indicated stable pMHC-II play a larger role in sLAG-3 binding than incorporation of pMHC-II in lipid rafts. sLAG-3 binding, MHC-II, CD59 and PD-L1 were assessed by flow cytometry on IFN-γ treated melanoma cell line (MDA-MB-435) and different breast cancer cell lines (BCCL). Lipid raft disruptor, methyl-B-cyclodextrin was used to treat cell lines to determine if LAG-3 binding was affected by lipid rafts. Cell lines were MHC-II⁺ and PD-L1⁺, but only MDA-MB-435 bound sLAG3. Deficient LAG-3 binding to BCCL could not be explained by HLA-DM or lipid raft deficiency. Lipid raft disruption increased sLAG-3 binding, this could not be explained by MHC-II or CD59. This suggests that lipid raft disruption may expose MHC-II and other ligands to promote sLAG-3 binding. Altogether, results indicate LAG-3 binding is cell-context dependent and more complex than simply binding p/MHC-II complexes, preferentially located in lipid rafts.

Confidence in continued employment and wages according to seniority cannot facilitate technical innovation and the optimal use of human resources in the Japanese large enterprise without the aid of personnel appraisal and the sub-contracting system. 2. Personnel appraisal rewards those workers who collaborate in technical innovation and punishes those who do not by means of differentials in seasonal bonuses, wage increases, promotion and demotion. 3. The sub-contracting system helps a large enterprise maintain enough flexibility by reducing sub-contracting, eliminating its over-employment, transferring those workers who do not collaborate in technical innovation to its sub-contracting enterprises, and organizing the workers of a large firm and those of its sub-contracting firms separatel

The Call Market and the Money Supply Process in Japan

Year: 2018

description: In this paper we explore the role of the call market in the transmission process of monetary policy. We formalize a model of banks' behaviour under quantitative constraints which characterize the modus operandi of monetary management in postwar Japan. The central role is assigned to the call market in explaining the supply process of money. The effectiveness of the constraints on banks' behaviour is examined by employing the comparative static analysis; it is shown that the ceiling imposed on borrowing from the central bank exerts strong influence on the call rate, and accordingly on bank credit supply, while the limit on city banks' lending tends to lower the call rate, thus attenuating the restrictive impact on credit supply of the banking sector as a whole. The evidence provided by the econometric analysis underpins the theoretical considerations derived from the model.

description: We conduct the first systematic survey of a total of eleven optical coronal lines in the spectra of a large sample of low redshift (z < 0.8) Type 1 quasars observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We find that strong coronal line emission is rare in SDSS even in Type 1 quasars; only 885 out of 19,508 (4.5%) galaxies show at least one coronal line, with higher ionization potential lines (>100eV) being even rarer. The [Ne V] λ3426 line, which constitutes the majority of detections, is strongly correlated with the bolometric luminosity. These findings suggest that the optical coronal lines are significantly suppressed in the majority of local AGNs, possibly as a result of the presence of dust in the emitting regions. We find that the incidence of ionized outflows is significantly higher in coronal line emitters compared with non-coronal line emitters, possibly suggesting that dust destruction in outflows enhances coronal line emission in AGNs. Many coronal lines show line profiles that are broader than those of narrow lines, and are blue-shifted relative the lower ionization potential lines, suggesting outflows in the highly ionized gas. Given the limited number of detections, we do not find any statistically significant trends of detection statistics, or line ratios with black hole mass, Eddington ratio, or AGN bolometric luminosity. The catalog is publicly available and can provide a useful database of the coronal line properties of low redshift quasars that can be compared to the growing number of high-z AGNs discovered by JWST.

description: While entrepöt trade dominated the Hong Kong economy until the early 1960's, Hong Kong is now a very important industrial and financial centre. The rapid economic growth has strongly intensified the economic relations between Hong Kong and the West European countries. With the inception of the four modernizations programme in China, in which the EEC will play a part, Hong Kong will greatly benefit from its role as an entrepöt not only for goods transactions but also for capital flows in the years to come. The present paper gives some statistical projections on the development of the economic relations between Hong Kong and the EEC in the 1980's and points to the problems related herewith.

Die Vergangenheit - eine Selbstbesinnung
Creators: name: Varma, Nirmal
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum

description: Past decisions determine the present situation of life. An analysis of India's crisis is thus an analysis of the past, of tradition. It is subjective and seeks the roots of the nation's identity. Tradition is alive in us: it is not a thing of the past. Indian culture is totally different from European culture. In Europe, the developed clarity of the individual regarding himself was the basis for a culture which has led to the separation of the individual from nature, the universe and his fellow-men. In Indian culture, on the other hand, there is no separation between the religious insight and secular experience of human being. India had no history in a specifically European sense: in spite of superficial changes, no fundamental change has taken place in the main current of Indian life. Thus, Indians were able to keep their identity alive until the colonial power of England conquered India and brought with it a totally different system of values. The resulting conflict was thus between two ways of life and not between modernisation and restoration. Yet the attempts to achieve harmony, which Indian intellectuals of the 19th century undertook, were erroneous and brought about the current situation. Blind belief in the inescapability of history led them to see in the copying of the western form of society the only way to the liberation and development of India. The intellectuals had made the formula "History = Europe = Development" their credo and thus professed for their country a future which was nothing more than self-deception. The contemporary Indian elite, too, still follows this line of thinking: on the one hand, it praises Indian tradition; on the other hand, however, it copies the West in its whole way of life. Behind this lurks a colonial mentality, which derives from a strong feeling of inferiority and distrust of one's own identity. The main significance of the future makes illusion of the present and postpones genuine reality until the future. Only Gandhi questioned this blind belief in the future. The core of India's deep crisis, which is characterized by the jostling of multi-story five-Star hotels and sprawling slums as well as the loss of national identity, lies in the option for a western future-oriented path of development.

Stadtplanung in Nepal? Bemerkungen zum Transfer einer Disziplin
Creators: name: Herrle, Peter
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2018

description: The article focusses on the penetration of western town planning ideology into the administrative and urban culture of Nepal. In the Valley of Kathmandu the physical and social settings of three pre-industrial Hindu-Buddhist townships have survived. They came under western influence and gradually began to change only after the political change in 1951. Urban planning was introduced from 1962 onwards by foreign experts. The emerging planning organisation and the professional output of the newly established department, however, was unable to cope with the existing problems, such as haphazard urban growth, land speculation, and the overcrowed and deteriorating traditional city cores where the majority of the urban poor live. Planning activities have a strong bias towards the stimulation of tourism and thus benefit the foreign visitor and the upper strata of the Nepalese society more than the mass of the urban population. The failure of urban planning is mainly due to three shortcomings: 1) The really important investments are decided, financed, and implemented outside the formal planning system. These projects are 'planned' in accordance with the vested interests of a few ruling families and the funds made available by the donors of foreign aid. 2) The imported sophisticated planning system does not work in the peculiar bureaucratic structure of Nepal, where administration and politics are closely bound together. 3) The imported planning technology is inappropriate to the prevailing sociocultural patterns of the still predominantly traditional urban societies. On the other hand the rich human resources existing in the traditional urban culture have not yet been tapped. These would provide substantial skills for indigenous management and for a more self-sustaining process of local development. The article concludes with the discussion of alternative strategies which are more appropriate to the situation and the problems in Nepal.

description: Teams occupy a strong presence in the modern workplace. However, few studies have tracked the evolution of team behavior over time. The use of cross-sectional team research fails to appreciate the stages that teams pass through as they evolve and mature. The present study had three goals in mind. The first goal was to arrive at a causal model of team performance via a secondary statistical analysis on the research conducted by Cunningham (2001) and Strobel (2001). Strobe1 and Cunningham tracked the performance of eleven student-learning teams over the course of a semester. A team training intervention was administered after seven weeks. Contrary to their hypotheses, team performance declined post-intervention. Therefore, the second goal of the present study was to account for this decrement in team performance. The third goal was to examine the effect of the previously unresearched variable of task workload on the performance of these eleven teams. Results indicated that the same predictors did not come into play with all teams and thus, inconsistency existed across teams. Discussion focused on the implications of the results as well as the limitations and strengths of conducting time-based research.

description: Patients recovering from limb-impairing strokes require consistent and precise physical therapy (PT) to regain mobility and functionality. Autonomous rehabilitation robots are increasingly adopted during recovery, offering a scalable solution to reduce the burden on physical therapists while assisting patients in performing prescribed exercises accurately. However, the effectiveness of these treatments often relies on professional supervision to ensure patients follow the robot’s movements properly, which could be challenging considering the ongoing shortage of physical therapists. Current PT monitoring systems primarily rely on camera-based technologies, which usually raise concerns due to potential privacy violations and high deployment costs, or wearable devices that are intrusive and uncomfortable for patients. To address these limitations, we propose PhysiFi, a novel approach that leverages ubiquitous WiFi signals available in most indoor environments, such as homes, rehabilitation centers, and assisted living facilities. By analyzing Channel State Information (CSI) from ambient WiFi signals and employing deep learning models, PhysiFi can track and recognize exercises performed by patients with rehabilitation robots. Our experiments demonstrate that PhysiFi can accurately identify prescribed exercises and evaluate whether patients are following the robot’s movements correctly, providing a non-intrusive, privacy-preserving, and costeffective alternative for monitoring physical therapy sessions.
Community Development: Achievements and Deficiencies

description: As a subject, community development has been more prone to false hopes and high flown phrases than most. At times, especially in the late fifties, it became, like the missionary gratuitousness which preceded it, something of a cult. Even today, the term, although a bit faded, is redolent of pious good works and conjures pictures of hardworking and devoted civil servants, khaki clad, talking earnestly with local chiefs in a durbar in Enugu or a barraza in Morogoro or the backwoods of Kenya. Or, in a different form, one recalls the shining morning faces of Peace Corps volunteers in the barriadas outside of Lima, anxious to transform society “from below.”

Some Notes on Community Development in Indonesia

description: When Indonesia proclaimed its independence on August 17, 1945, it faced among other things two critical problems: a) Ignorance, with 96% of the population illiterate, b) Poverty, reflected in a very low standard of living. The desire to eliminate those two problems through independence was reflected in the Preamble of the 1945 Constitution. Afterwards, both the Preamble and the Constitution became the source for all efforts in giving substance to independence.

Anmerkungen zur Entwicklungsstrategie der Republik Singapur
Creators: name: Weiss, Dieter
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2018

description: Während der letzten Jahre hat Singapur den Ruf eines wirtschaftlich außerordentlich effizienten Stadtstaates aufgebaut, dessen Wachstumsraten und ökonomischer Strukturwandel in Richtung auf technologisch anspruchsvollere Produktionsbereiche den übrigen südostasiatischen Ländern weit vorauseilen. Es ist bekannt, daß die Regierung der Republik Singapur die Bedeutung privater Auslandsinvestitionen unterstreicht und keine Restriktionen im Hinblick auf Obergrenzen ausländischer Firmenanteile, Kapitalbewegungen und Rückführung von Gewinnen kennt. Insbesondere sind multinationale Unternehmungen, die in vielen Teilen der Welt aus der Sicht von Regierungen, Gewerkschaften und verschiedensten gesellschaftlichen Gruppen kritisch betrachtet werden, in Singapur willkommen. Der Außenminister stellte kürzlich fest: „It is by plugging into multinationals that Singapore has overcome the handicaps of size, a small population and lack of natural resources... On balance the presence of these corporations was advantageous to Singapore and greatly accelerated the Republic’s economic growth and potential.“ Man sieht in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere das Einbringen von Technologie und Management und den Zugang zu neuen Märkten.

Politischer Entscheidungsprozeß unter dem Druck der "veröffentlichten Meinung". Zur Rolle der japanischen Presse
Creators: name: Koschwitz, Hansjürgen
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2018

description: Demokratisierung des gesellschaftlichen und öffentlichen Lebens sowie Konsolidierung des parlamentarischen Systems bildeten in Japan nach 1945 die Voraussetzungen für die Umgestaltung der überlieferten Herrschaftsform und für den endgültigen Übergang einer partiell noch immer feudalgesellschaftlichen Ordnung in eine moderne Demokratie atlantischer Prägung. Deutlich ließ die Verfassung von 1947 den Prozeß der Modernisierung in einem Lande erkennen, das sich zuvor nur sehr begrenzt mit Traditionen und Gepflogenheiten der westlich-liberalen Demokratie vertraut gemacht und in dem die konstitutionell garantierte Pressefreiheit seit Mitte der 30er Jahre de facto nicht mehr bestanden hatte. Die Beamtenbürokratie, das Militär und nach 1941 die Regierung konnten in jener Zeit in zunehmendem Maße ihren Einfluß durchsetzen. Allenfalls während der Ära der Taisho-Demokratie (1912-26) war es der Presse zeitweise gelungen, sich als publizistisches Gegengewicht und Organ öffentlicher Kritik gegenüber der Regierung zu etablieren und sogar am Sturz einiger Kabinette mitzuwirken. Obgleich die japanische Presse niemals frei von rechtlichen Einschränkungen gewesen war — woran auch die formale Freiheitsgarantie der Kaiserlichen Verfassung nichts zu ändern vermochte, hatten der zunächst noch minimale, im Vergleich zu früheren Regimen jedoch wachsende Spielraum der Presse sowie das sich schärfende Berufsbewußtsein der Journalisten in der Taisho-Ära die Regierungsbehörden am Mißbrauch der Presse mehr und mehr gehindert.

description: Broadly speaking the relations between the Russia and India may be divided into three periods. The first of these periods covers the relations of the Czarist Russia with the Mogul India. The second period which began about the middle of the nineteenth century, deals with the relations with the British India, until 1947, and the third period, which may be further divided into sub-sections, deals with the Soviet policies in South Asia up to this day.

The Bhoodan and Gramdan Movement in India: A Critical Assessment of Achievement and Failure
Creators: name: Bergmann, Theodor
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2018

description: The unique Indian movement of bhoodan and gramdan is explained as one of the attempts to come to grips with the urgent and chronic problems of agrarian reform. Government measures failed, the peasant’s selfhelp was quelled by the army or faded away. Bhave instead aimed at a substitution of State activities and revolutionary coercion by persuasion and politics of love. The aims were set higher and higher both in quantity of land to be donated and redistributed and in quality, calling for a general, radical, non-violent reshaping of Indian society. These high-flying goals were to be achieved by prayer, preaching, good example. No technical, administrative steps were offered or planned to implement the follow-up or to achieve the goals.

Transparency and Reproducibility in an organisation at the Science-Policy Interface IPBES as a Case Study
Creators: name: Krug, Rainer M
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: One of the main objectives of IPBES (Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services) is to produce assessments on topics previously requested by the member states. The assessment is then reviewed and finally approved by these member states. This process has for example resulted in the influential Global Assessment Report on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. 

It is essential that these assessments, as well as other IPBES products, are transparent and reproducible, in other words that each statement can be justified through evidence in the form of literature or an analysis. To this end, IPBES introduced in 2020 a Data Management Policy (in a major revision renamed to Data and Knowledge Management Policy). This policy was at that time the first of its kind for an organisation at the Science-Policy interface and this statement is, to our knowledge, still true today. 

To implement this DKM policy, a set of technical guidelines were produced to highlight the relevant aspects which need to be covered so that the assessments are produced (and published in line with the policy.

In this poster I will highlight the challenges which an organisation like IPBES is confronted with in developing and implementing an comprehensive Data and Knowledge Management Policy which considers aspects of not only the western science paradigm but also other worldviews, and at the same time leaving the experts who are compiling the report enough freedom for their work.
