Unlearned and learned behaviour of bumble bees in the absence of reward.

description: In the absence of previous experience with flowers, how do bees distinguish between possible food sources and non-rewarding objects? Unrewarding stimuli (colours in Experiment 1 and patterns in Experiment 2) were presented in a radial arm maze. The unlearned approach responses of bumblebees (Bombus impatiens) were recorded and significant preferences were obtained: the bees chose yellow and blue over other colours, and radial patterns over concentric patterns or unpatterned discs. Habituation was demonstrated when choices proportions for the same pattern by the same bees decreased over two test sessions. When an attractive novel pattern was presented in the third session the trend was reversed. These data confirm both that truly naive bees have unlearned colour and pattern preferences and that learning not to approach these stimuli occurs in the absence of reward. Two further experiments tested the length of time that habituation is maintained by bumble bees and the degree to which contextual cues contribute to maintaining habituation. In Experiment 3 once bees habituated to a radial pattern response decrement was maintained after a stimulus presentation delay of two hours. After a 24 hour delay, however, the preference was restored. In Experiment 4 exposure to the context without stimulus presentation did not affect the retention of the habituated response. These findings confirm bumble bees' ability to habituate to a stimulus and delineate its time course as lasting in the range of minutes and hours but not days. They call into question the associative role of contextual cues in habituation for bumble bees.

description: Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is characterized by the expression of an oncogenic fusion kinase termed BCR-ABL1. Here, we show that interleukin 7 receptor (IL7R) interacts with the chemokine receptor CXCR4 to recruit BCR-ABL1 and JAK kinases in close proximity. Treatment with BCR-ABL1 kinase inhibitors results in elevated expression of IL7R which enables the survival of transformed cells when IL7 was added together with the kinase inhibitors. Importantly, treatment with anti-IL7R antibodies prevents leukemia development in xenotransplantation models using patient-derived Ph+ ALL cells. Our results suggest that the association between IL7R and CXCR4 serves as molecular platform for BCR-ABL1-induced transformation and development of Ph+ ALL. Targeting this platform with anti-IL7R antibody eliminates Ph+ ALL cells including those with resistance to commonly used ABL1 kinase inhibitors. Thus, anti-IL7R antibodies may provide alternative treatment options for ALL in general and may suppress incurable drug-resistant leukemia forms.

description: The objectives of this study were as follows: (1) to establish a technique to determine (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ in single enzymatically isolated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) from the rat tail artery by means of the fura-2 fluorescent dye, (2) to study the relationship between VSMC shortening and Ca$\sp{2+}$ mobilization by caffeine, (3) to determine the mechanism of caffeine-induced Ca$\sp{2+}$ mobilization by studying the effects of removal of extracellular Ca$\sp{2+}$ and agents that modulate Ca$\sp{2+}$ mobilization (ryanodine, TMB-8, nifedipine, thapsigargin), (4) to determine the possible physiological role of the caffeine-sensitive Ca$\sp{2+}$ store in VSMCs by its interaction with noradrenaline. We conclude that, the fura-2 technique may be successfully employed to measure (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ in single vascular smooth muscle cells from the rat tail artery. The (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ response was found to be reproducible irrespective of cell length. This is the first study to show this, although others have used single cells to study (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ changes, the question of whether cell morphology affects (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ has never been addressed. This allows comparative (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ studies to be performed on the same single vascular smooth muscle cell regardless of its contractile state. This is important as there can be great heterogeneity in the Ca$\sp{2+}$ signal response between different cells in the same population. On this basis, we have shown that ryanodine reduces the caffeine-induced Ca$\sp{2+}$ response; whereas other agents known to affect Ca$\sp{2+}$ regulation such as thapsigargin, TMB-8, and nifedipine had no effect on the caffeine-induced Ca$\sp{2+}$ response. Extracellular Ca$\sp{2+}$ was found to play an important role in the maintenance of resting and tonic (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i$ levels, as well as being essential to replenishment of the caffeine-sensitive Ca$\sp{2+}$ store. We have also shown that caffeine and noradrenaline are equally effective in releasing intracellular Ca$\sp{2+}$ and inducing a tonic increase in (Ca$\sp{2+}\rbrack\sb i.$ (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: The 1 in 4 Poll project seeks to increase understanding of the views and needs of people with a disability by developing an accessible survey method. It is being conducted by Deakin University in partnership with the Victorian disability service provider, Scope. To address this goal, the 1 in 4 Poll method has focused on three key strategies: an accessible Internet-based survey; use of an assisted and proxy report; and a 'standard' and Easy English version of the survey. A bespoke online survey design seeks to overcome the limitations in accessibility of available online survey tools. Positive evaluative comments, from respondents across a wide-range of disabilities, suggests that the combination of the three major strategies used in the 1 in 4 Poll has resulted in a valuable and accessible method of large scale surveying of people with a disability.

DSL wideband crosstalk cancellation for mixed DSL technologies using common mode information
Creators: name: Bessens, Gilles
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: Data services delivered on telephone twisted pair wiring can potentially suffer from crosstalk due to data services on other twisted pairs in proximity, limiting the data rate, the maximum loop length and the quantity and variety of data services that a bundle can support. The crosstalk from other data services couples to the twisted pair in common mode and leaks to differential mode due to imperfect line balance. This thesis uses the common mode signal as a reference to an adaptive wideband crosstalk canceller, in an attempt to remove or at least lower the effect of crosstalk on the useful differential signal. Simulation results show the potential benefits of using this technique to reduce the level of crosstalk on an ADSL differential signal with crosstalk coming from data services commonly found in the telephone bundles. This technique is not limited to ADSL but can be applied to any technology using twisted pair wiring as its transmission medium.
Security characterisation and integrity assurance for component-based software
Creators: name: Han, Jun

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Software systems are increasingly being assembled from components that are developed by and purchased from third parties, for technical and economic gains. In such component-based software development, the functionality and quality-of-service attributes of the software components should be clearly and adequately specified (or packaged) through their interfaces, so that the characteristics of the systems assembled from the components can be analysed relative to the system requirements. In this paper, we consider one particular quality-of-service attribute, i.e. security, and outline an approach to (1) specifying the security characteristics of software components and (2) analysing the security properties of component-based systems in terms of their component characteristics and system architectures. The approach is partially based on the Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation (ISO/IEC International Standard 15408). In addition, we also introduce out work on ensuring the integrity of software components as part of the infrastructural support for component-based software engineering.

description: Psychotic experiences are prevalent across a wide variety of psychiatric, neurological, and medical conditions. Yet current assessments are often designed for one disorder, or are limited in their examination of phenomenological features; this has hindered transdiagnostic research. This article describes an examination of the validity and reliability of the English version of a new assessment, the Questionnaire for Psychotic Experiences (QPE). This study aimed to use the QPE to examine hallucinations and delusions across a number of different conditions, and to ensure that the QPE had acceptable psychometric properties. An International Consortium on Hallucination Research working group, along with consumer groups, developed the 50-item QPE to assess the presence, severity, and phenomenology of hallucinations and delusions. Participants in the study who reported psychotic experiences included those with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar affective disorder, and major depressive disorder, and those without a need for care (ie, nonclinical participants). There were 173 participants in total. Convergent and discriminant validity were assessed. Reliability was examined in terms of stability, equivalence, and internal consistency. The data confirmed that the QPE had good psychometric properties and could be put forward as an accepted measure of the transdiagnostic evaluation of psychotic experiences. Further validation is recommended with neurological and medical populations. Given its validity and reliability, comprehensive evaluation of psychotic phenomena, and relatively quick administration time, we propose that the QPE is a valuable instrument for both clinical and research settings.

description: The right to non-discriminatory access to healthcare is anchored in the European Convention on Human Rights and other international treaties or guidelines. Since its ratification, the European Convention on Human Rights was made binding in all Member States of the Council of Europe and is interpreted by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). Despite its legal recognition, discrimination in healthcare provision has repeatedly been an issue of medicoethical and political consideration. In this context, minors are particularly in danger of being deprived of this fundamental right. The aim of this study is to analyze the current state of the ECtHR jurisdiction on challenges in accessing healthcare for minor patients. We conducted a systematic search of judgments by the ECtHR using the keywords “healthcare” and “child”. We performed descriptive statistics and qualitative thematic analysis. Our search resulted in n = 66 judgments, which were all screened. Access to healthcare for minors played a role in n = 21 judgments, which involved applications against n = 13 countries. We formed five, partially overlapping categories, which represent recurring themes regarding the research topic. These themes are governance failure (n = 11), the status of refugee, asylum seeker or migrant (n = 5), parental home (n = 5), maternity and birth (n = 4) and others (n = 2). The normative framework of the ECtHR’s jurisprudence illustrates intersections between social, legal and medicoethical aspects of minors’ discrimination in the healthcare system. It emphasizes the particular vulnerability of children, who require exceptional protection. Inadequate access to healthcare manifests itself in specific situations, such as in the context of migration or staying in public institutions. Healthcare professionals need to be sensitized for such discrimination mechanisms, as they are often at the forefront of encountering structural discrimination in the healthcare system.

description: Web 2.0 technologies are able to support established student-centred pedagogies by enabling user-created content. However, user-created content generates some interesting challenges for educators, curriculum coordinators and designers--including issues such as academic integrity, public environments and shifting academic authority. This paper looks at the question of how students responded to shifts in authority in the specific example of a podcasting activity using student-generated content. We report on themes that emerged from university medical students' reflections on the learning activity: resistance to shifting academic authority, hybrid teacher/student approaches to content, and the perceived benefits of peer learning. The paper concludes with a discussion of how understandings of the process of content creation, as opposed to the end product, are key to perceptions of the educational value of user-created content.

description: Community-based and Indigenous-led health and wellness approaches have been widely advocated for Indigenous peoples. However, remarkably few Indigenous designed and led interventions exist within the field. The purpose of this study was to evaluate an Indigenous-led and community-based health and wellness intervention in a remote and rural Indigenous community. This protocol was designed by and for Indigenous peoples based on the aspirations of the community (established through sharing circles). A total of 15 participants completed a 13-week walking and healthy lifestyle counselling program (incorporating motivational interviewing) to enhance cardiometabolic health. Measures of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA; 7-day accelerometry and self-report), predicted maximal aerobic power (VO2max; 6-min walk test), resting heart rate and blood pressure, and other health-related physical fitness measures (musculoskeletal fitness and body composition) were taken before and after the intervention. The intervention led to significant (p < 0.05) improvements in VO2max (7.1 ± 6.3 % change), with the greatest improvements observed among individuals with lower baseline VO2max (p < 0.05, r = -0.76). Resting heart rate, resting systolic blood pressure, and resting diastolic blood pressure decreased significantly (p < 0.05) after the intervention. Self-reported and accelerometry-measured frequency of MVPA increased significantly (p < 0.05), and the total MVPA minutes (~275 min/week) were above international recommendations. Change in VO2max was significantly correlated with change in self-reported (r = 0.42) and accelerometry-measured (r = 0.24) MVPA minutes. No significant changes were observed in weight, body mass index, waist circumference, body fat (via bioelectrical impedance), grip strength, and flexibility. These findings demonstrate that a culturally relevant and safe, community-based, Indigenous-led, health and wellness intervention can lead to significant and clinically relevant improvements in cardiometabolic health and physical activity behaviour, with the greatest changes being observed in the least active/fit individuals.

description: Recent psychiatric research and treatment initiatives have tended to move away from traditional diagnostic categories and have focused instead on transdiagnostic phenomena, such as hallucinations. However, this emphasis on isolated experiences may artificially limit the definition of such phenomena and ignore the rich, complex, and dynamic changes occurring simultaneously in other domains of experience. This article reviews the literature on a range of experiential features associated with psychosis, with a focus on their relevance for hallucinations. Phenomenological research on changes in cognition, perception, selfhood and reality, temporality, interpersonal experience, and embodiment are discussed, along with their implications for traditional conceptualizations of hallucinations. We then discuss several phenomenological and neurocognitive theories, as well as the potential impact of trauma on these phenomena. Hallucinations are suggested to be an equifinal outcome of multiple genetic, neurocognitive, subjective, and social processes; by grouping them together under a single, operationalizable definition, meaningful differences in etiology and phenomenology may be ignored. It is suggested that future research efforts strive to incorporate a broader range of experiential alterations, potentially expanding on traditional definitions of hallucinations. Relevance for clinical practice, including emphasizing phenomenologically responsive techniques and developing targeted new therapies, is discussed.
Threshold and transformation

Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: This paper explores two closely-related concepts of relevance to teaching and learning in higher education and management education, in particular: threshold and transformation. Threshold concepts and transformational (or transformative) learning are defined and explained, and their relevance demonstrated, with reference to germane theoretical underpinnings and established practice. A dozen threshold concepts are identified that characterise the higher education classroom employing student-centred, experiential, and holistic education to achieve deep learning. Three are explained in detail to illustrate threshold concepts and how they work: the process is the solution, teaching for the unknowable, and the classroom as a community. Four extensive vignettes depict threshold and transformation as they emerge in the management classroom, revealing the conditions in which they might occur, the threshold moment, itself, and the transformation and its impact on individual learners and others in the class. The synthesis of threshold and transformation this paper introduces shows how the two concepts are integrally related and operate synergistically to produce remarkable learning outcomes. It is argued that conventional approaches-exemplified by eight 'unspoken rules to management education'-fall short in equipping students for an unknown and, perhaps, unknowable future. Applying the principles of threshold and transformation is a new approach to teaching and learning that better prepares students for the real world, and may revolutionalise the way students and teachers experience and exploit the classroom.
Architectural challenges and solutions for peer-to-peer massively multiplayer online games

description: Massively Multiuser Online Games (MMOG), now supporting millions of simultaneous participants on a regular basis, have become a significant contributor in human-to-human communications. While originally designed for games, they have now moved into serious realms of socialization, business, commerce, scientific experimentation, and others. As more and more people participate in these massive environments, the underlying infrastructure is starting to exhibit shortcomings that limit the progress, practicality, and applicability of MMOGs. This thesis explores various architectural challenges inherent in MMOGs and offers effective solutions in the context of a hybrid model. The key objective of this hybrid model, named M assively Multiuser VIrtual S imulation Architecture (MM-VISA), is to form a stable and scalable collaboration platform that economically combines the resources of both servers and player peers, incorporating the advantages of a centralized architecture and a scalable Peer-to-Peer distributed system, which in turn leads to improved support for the participating masses. Synchronous communication among massive number of users in an MMOG is a prime concern, and difficult and/or expensive to support. This massiveness causes challenges that cannot be solved with conventional techniques used in traditional collaborative environments. Massive number of players' frequent and random movements in the virtual environment and zone-switching can easily break synchronous communication and cause substantial strain on the underlying system, networking, and server infrastructure. To alleviate such problems, this thesis proposes a model consisting of interest-driven zone crossing, dynamic shared regions, clustering of players based on their attributes, multilevel multiphase load-balancing with several plug-able solutions, hybrid routing based on a combination of centralized and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networking, and interest-management techniques considering dynamics of the area of interest and graphical computing. It is then revealed that the model significantly improves overall system performance and enhances infrastructure stability in terms of load, network overlay, and other performance characteristics.
African Swine Fever Status in Europe

description: African Swine Fever (ASF) is a highly contagious disease that affects the domestic pig and wild boar population. The aim of this study was to describe the introduction and spread of the ASF virus in Western Europe (1960–1995) and in Eastern Europe (2007–2018), with particular emphasis on the current ASF situation in Poland and its challenges and future perspectives. The first ASF outbreak in Europe was reported in Portugal in 1957, with the virus spreading over most of Western Europe over the next 30 years. In Eastern Europe, the virus was first observed in Georgia in 2007, from where the disease spread quickly to other neighboring countries, reaching Poland in 2014. Since then, there have been 3341 confirmed cases in the wild boar population in Poland. Although there have been no confirmed cases of wild boars coming into contact with domestic pigs, the first notified case concerning domestic pigs was reported in July 2014. Since then, there have been a total of 213 confirmed outbreaks of ASF on Polish pig farms. Given the virulence of the ASF virus and the myriad of transmission routes across Europe, the monitoring of this disease must be a priority for Europe.

Subjects: subject: DDC 530 / Physics

subject: Polypeptidketten bindende Proteine

description: Dynamical properties of chain molecules under tension are investigated using a functional integral formalism. The relaxation times of partially extended chain molecules are investigated on the basis of a Langevin equation approach and for the first time compared with experimental data of partially extended single DNA molecules. The hydrodynamic interaction as well as the semiflexibility of the molecules are taken into account. The theoretical approach quantitatively reproduces the experimental data. Furthermore, it is found that the normal mode concept also holds in the case of partially extended macromolecules.

description: Objective This paper presents a theoretical model and two simulator studies on the psychological processes during early trust calibration in automated vehicles. Background The positive outcomes of automation can only reach their full potential if a calibrated level of trust is achieved. In this process, information on system capabilities and limitations plays a crucial role. Method In two simulator experiments, trust was repeatedly measured during an automated drive. In Study 1, all participants in a two-group experiment experienced a system-initiated take-over, and the occurrence of a system malfunction was manipulated. In Study 2 in a 2 × 2 between-subject design, system transparency was manipulated as an additional factor. Results Trust was found to increase during the first interactions progressively. In Study 1, take-overs led to a temporary decrease in trust, as did malfunctions in both studies. Interestingly, trust was reestablished in the course of interaction for take-overs and malfunctions. In Study 2, the high transparency condition did not show a temporary decline in trust after a malfunction. Conclusion Trust is calibrated along provided information prior to and during the initial drive with an automated vehicle. The experience of take-overs and malfunctions leads to a temporary decline in trust that was recovered in the course of error-free interaction. The temporary decrease can be prevented by providing transparent information prior to system interaction. Application Transparency, also about potential limitations of the system, plays an important role in this process and should be considered in the design of tutorials and human-machine interaction (HMI) concepts of automated vehicles.

L'aménagement des visions culturaliste et universaliste autour de la Loi 88 : lecture d'un discours politique en Acadie du N.B.

description: L'objectif de cette recherche est de faire une lecture originale de l'activite politique au Nouveau-Brunswick, en observant la tension entre le conception culturaliste et universelle du pacte politique tel que percu chez certains acteurs de la minorite acadienne. Le moyen principal de verification de l'objectif de cette recherche est d'examiner les perceptions du discours des leaders acadiens lorsqu'ils s'expriment sur la portee de la Loi reconnaissant l'egalite des communautes linguistiques au Nouveau-Brunswick. Cette Loi (appelee aussi 88), qui reconnai t la dualite culturelle comme fondement de l'espace politique dans l'Etat provincial, souleve un debat au coeur de plusieurs societes modernes a l'aube du XXIe siecle. Il semble se manifester au sein de ces societes un conflit entre le mouvement des Etats vers la mondialisation et l'universalisme, et le contre mouvement des groupes ethno-culturels a la recherche de reconnaissance de leurs particularismes et le maintien de leur specificite. Ces visions, en apparentes oppositions, portent egalement sur des modalites de ce qui constitue la nation. En effet, les perceptions et attentes des leaders acadiens face a cette Loi, qui proclame le principe de la dualite communautaire, nous permettent de bien illustrer le conflit qui met en opposition les fondements de l'humanisme abstrait et du culturalisme.

description: The field of digital mental health is rapidly expanding with digital tools being used in assessment, intervention, and supporting self-help. The application of digital mental health to hallucinations is, however, at a very early stage. This report from a working group of the International Consortium on Hallucinations Research considers particular synergies between the phenomenon of hallucinations and digital tools that are being developed. Highlighted uses include monitoring and managing intermittently occurring hallucinations in daily life; therapeutic applications of audio and video media including virtual and augmented reality; targeting verbal aspects of hallucinations; and using avatars to represent hallucinatory voices. Although there is a well-established Internet-based peer support network, digital resources for hallucinations have yet to be implemented in routine practice. Implementation may benefit from identifying how to market resources to the broad range of populations who experience hallucinations and identifying sustainable funding models. It is envisaged that digital tools will contribute to improved self-management and service provision for people experiencing hallucinations.

Marking territory with London's East End: Arthur Morrison and the imagination of modern borders

description: In their writings on London's East End slums at the end of the nineteenth century, contemporary urban planners, social reformers, and novelists often attributed many of the slum's social "evils" to the deeper problem of overcrowding. This thesis explores how overcrowding functions as an import ant narrative device in each of Arthur Morrison's own East End novels, A Child of the Jago, To London Town, and The Hole in the Wall. I argue that overcrowding contributes not only to violence and depravity among his characters, but also to their violation of the slum's topographical borders: the pressures of overcrowding ultimately disperse populations into outlying territories. This phenomenon is taken up paradigmatically in Morrison's later novels, yet in relation to London's larger metropolitan expansion. Attention to Morrison's progressive approaches to the city's shifting urban environment extends the critical application of his works from a distinctively "Victorian" one, to include a much broader history of representing London and the East End.

description: There is an utmost requirement for technology to control a driver’s phone while driving, which will prevent the driver from being distracted and thus saving the driver’s and passenger’s lives. Information from recent studies has shown that 70% of the young and aware drivers are used to texting while driving. There are many different technologies used to control mobile phones while driving, including electronic device control, global positioning system (GPS), on-board diagnostics (OBD)-II-based devices, mobile phone applications or apps, etc. These devices acquire the vehicle information such as the car speed and use the information to control the driver’s phone such as preventing them from making or receiving calls at specific speed limits. The information from the devices is interfaced via Bluetooth and can later be used to control mobile phone applications. The main aim of this paper is to propose the design of a portable system for monitoring the use of a mobile phone while driving and for controlling a driver’s mobile phone, if necessary, when the vehicle reaches a specific speed limit (>10 km/h). A paper-based self-reported questionnaire survey was carried out among 600 teenage drivers from different nationalities to see the driving behavior of young drivers in Qatar. Finally, a mobile application was developed to monitor the mobile usage of a driver and an OBD-II module-based portable system was designed to acquire data from the vehicle to identify drivers’ behavior with respect to phone usage, sudden lane changes, and abrupt breaking/sharp speeding. This information was used in a mobile application to control the driver’s mobile usage as well as to report the driving behavior while driving. The application of such a system can significantly improve drivers’ behavior all over the world.
