description: This systematic review aims to identify instrument-based tests for quantifying vitreous inflammation in uveitis, report the test reliability and the level of correlation with clinician grading. Studies describing instrument-based tests for detecting vitreous inflammation were identified by searching bibliographic databases and trials registers. Test reliability measures and level of correlation with clinician vitreous haze grading are extracted. Twelve studies describing ultrasound, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and retinal photography for detecting vitreous inflammation were included: Ultrasound was used for detection of disease features, whereas OCT and retinal photography provided quantifiable measurements. Correlation with clinician grading for OCT was 0.53–0.60 (three studies) and for retinal photography was 0.51 (1 study). Both instruments showed high inter- and intra-observer reliability (>0.70 intraclass correlation and Cohen’s kappa), where reported in four studies. Retinal photography and OCT are able to detect and measure vitreous inflammation. Both techniques are reliable, automatable, and warrant further evaluation.

description: Sound waves on a fluid stream, in a de Laval nozzle, are shown to correspond to quasinormal modes emitted by black holes that are physical solutions in a quadratic curvature gravity with cosmological constant. Sound waves patterns in transsonic regimes at a laboratory are employed here to provide experimental data regarding generalized theories of gravity, comprised by the exact de Sitter-like solution and a perturbative solution around the Schwarzschild-de Sitter standard solution. Using the classical tests of General Relativity to bound free parameters in these solutions, acoustic perturbations on fluid flows in nozzles are then regarded to study quasinormal modes of these black holes solutions, providing deviations of the de Laval nozzle cross-sectional area, when compared to the Schwarzschild solution. The fluid sonic point in the nozzle, for sound waves in the fluid, implements the acoustic event horizon corresponding to quasinormal modes.

description: Social forestry was envisioned as a policy innovation to tackle rural poverty. The literature increasingly shows that the goal is rarely achieved. Few mention social forestry improves local livelihoods, but many others point out the limited livelihood options provided to the communities. Recent literature highlights social innovation as a key factor in the success of social forestry. In this paper, we analyze the process by which social forestry permit holders harness social innovation to realize the promise of benefits from the forests. We focus on how they create networks with diverse stakeholders to gain the necessary resources to implement new ideas in utilizing the forests. We further analyze the key factors influencing the development of social innovation. We examine two rare cases from Indonesia where local communities thrived in the face of adversities and were able to turn them into opportunities to produce economic benefits. We identified resilience and adaptability as key internal attributes of the two communities to adapt to socio-ecological changes. Our cases also reveal the importance of building networks with related stakeholders. The success of social innovation is influenced by internal group factors such as persistence, leadership, as well as government policy and technical support.

description: We introduce a matrix-product state based method to efficiently obtain dynamical response functions for two-dimensional microscopic Hamiltonians, which we apply to different phases of the Kitaev-Heisenberg model. We find significant broad high energy features beyond spin-wave theory even in the ordered phases proximate to spin liquids. This includes the phase with zig-zag order of the type observed in $α$-RuCl$_3$, where we find high energy features like those seen in inelastic neutron scattering experiments. Our results provide an example of a natural path for proximate spin liquid features to arise at high energies above a conventionally ordered state, as the diffuse remnants of spin-wave bands intersect to yield a broad peak at the Brillouin zone center.

Subjects: subject: 69901 Forensic Biology
subject: FOS: Other medical sciences

description: Background:
Hot-zone is a crime scene circumscribed by first rescuers and the access must be controlled to preserve the evidence and to contain the contamination. The only Authority appointed
in Italy to carry out rescue in hot-zones are Firefighters.
Methods:
Analysis of case reports such as the “Costa Concordia” rescue operation in 2012. Analysis of procedure and protocols of different agency, institutions and organizations in crime scene
and event with hazmat materials involved.
Finding:
Currently many Italian rescuers haven’t any training to the crime scene and contaminated areas and, during small assistance operations, there are some discussions between
different Authority about who has the command of the operation; during important or long-time operations, instead, local Prefecture hosts and coordinates all Companies involved.
There is still not unified protocol for intervention and unified management. These critical issues as well as creating significant problems during the investigation and legal analysis, big
risk to national security because the HAZMATS without proper management can contaminate and compromise sensitive infrastructure such as transport and hospitals.
Conclusion:
Proper use of ICS can trigger a chain-of-command and special teams to handle the event, to assist effectively, to minimize the risks for operators, and to safeguard evidence.

description: The study assessed the value and supply chain of kola nuts in Ghana through key informant interviews (KIIs) and focus group discussions (FGDs) in eighteen communities. Key actors, flow of products and product information, and relationship among actors were assessed using content analysis. Results suggest that the nuts are picked or harvested from either wild or cultivated kola trees by farmers or pickers. The nuts are then processed or cured for storage by either the farmers, pickers or brokers who buy harvested kola pods for assemblers. The assemblers either sell to local consumers or on large markets in neighbouring countries like Nigeria. The business model for the kola nut industry in Ghana is such that transactions are usually on mutual trust and verbal agreements without any documented evidence. There is limited market information, which often hinders price negotiation, and this affects especially producers and processors. For improving the value chain for mutual benefit among the actors, especially for producers, we recommend the formation of a strong horizontal linkage through avenues, such as associations as well as strong vertical and consistent linkages between the actors.
Simple spin-orbit based devices for electron spin polarization

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We propose quantum devices having spin-orbit coupling (but no magnetic fields or magnetic materials) that, when attached to leads, yield a high degree of transmitted electron polarization. An example of such a simple device is treated within a tight binding model composed of two 1D chains coupled by several consecutive rungs (i.e., a ladder) and subject to a gate voltage. The ensuing scattering problem (with Rashba spin-orbit coupling) is solved, and a sizable polarization is predicted. When the ladder is twisted into a helix (as in DNA), the curvature energy augments the polarization. For a system with random spin-orbit coupling, the distribution of polarization is broad, hence a high degree of polarization can be obtained in a measurement of a given disorder-realization. When disorder occurs in a double helix structure then, depending on scattering energy, the variance of the polarization distribution can increase even further due to helix curvature.

description: This summary refers to the paper Enactment of adaptation in data stream processing with latency implications – A systematic literature review. This paper is a journal paper published in Information and Software Technology (IST) in July 2019. Runtime adaptation in stream processing plays a significant role in supporting the optimization of data processing tasks. In recent years, runtime adaptation, particularly its enactment, has received significant interest in scientific literature. However, so far no categorization of the enactment approaches for runtime adaptation in stream processing has been established. This paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR), where we identify and characterize different approaches towards the enactment of runtime adaptation in stream processing with a main focus on latency as quality dimension. We discovered 75 relevant papers out of 244 papers from the search. We identified 17 different enactment categories and developed a taxonomy to characterize all possible enactment approaches. We extracted the realization techniques of each identified enactment approach and classified them into categories. Furthermore, we identified 9 categories of processing problems, 6 adaptation goals, 9 evaluation metrics and 12 evaluation parameters from the identified enactment approaches. The research interest on enactment approaches has significantly increased in recent years. The most commonly applied enactment approaches are parameter adaptation to tune parameters or settings of the processing, load balancing used to re-distribute workloads, and processing scaling to dynamically scale up and down the processing.

description: We experimentally demonstrate that in magnetostrictive ferrimagnetic single crystal of CoFe2O4 there is clear correlation between magnetostriction and magnetoreflection of unpolarized light in the infrared range. The influence of magnetic field on specular reflection is likely to be indirect: application of a magnetic field results in strong strain and deformation of the crystal lattice, which leads to the change in electron energy structure and hence reflection spectrum.

description: In this work, we report about research results initially published in ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology (TOSEM), volume 28 Issue 3, 2019. Nowadays software comes in many different, yet similar variants, often derived from common code via clone-and-own. Family-based-analysis strategies show promising potentials for improving efficiency of quality assurance for variant-rich programs, as compared to variant-by-variant approaches. Unfortunately, these strategies require one superimposed program representation containing all program variants in a syntactically well-formed, semantically sound, and variant-preserving manner, which is hard to obtain manually in practice. In this talk, we present our methodology SiMPOSE for generating superimpositions of program variants to facilitate family-based analyses of variant-rich software. We utilize a novel N-way model-merging methodology for control-flow automaton (CFA) representations of C programs, an abstraction used by many recent software-analysis tools. To cope with the complexity of N-way merging, we use similarity-propagation to reduce the number of N-way matches and enable incremental merging of arbitrary subsets of variants. We apply our SiMPOSE tool to realistic C programs and investigate applicability and efficiency/effectiveness trade-offs of family-based program analyses. Our results reveal efficiency improvements by a factor of up to 2.6 for unit-test generation and 2.4 for model-checking under stable effectiveness, as compared to variant-by-variant.

description: The emergence of agile methods and practices has not only changed the development processes but might also have affected how companies conduct software process improvement (SPI). Through a set of complementary studies, we aim to understand how SPI has changed in times of agile software development. Specifically, we aim (1) to identify and characterize the set of publications that connect elements of agility to SPI, (2) to explore to which extent agile methods/practices have been used in the context of SPI, and (3) to understand whether the topics addressed in the literature are relevant and useful for industry professionals. To study these questions, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the literature identified in a previous mapping study, an interview study, and an analysis of the responses given by industry professionals to SPI-related questions stemming from an independently conducted survey study.

description: For analyzing changes in source code, edit scripts are used to describe the differences between two versions of a file. These scripts consist of a list of actions that, applied to the source file, result in the new version of the file. In contrast to line-based source code differencing, tree-based approaches such as GumTree, MTDIFF, or ChangeDistiller extract changes by comparing the abstract syntax trees (AST) of two versions of a source file. One benefit of tree-based approaches is their ability to capture moved (sub)trees in the AST. Our approach, the Iterative Java Matcher (IJM), builds upon GumTree and aims at generating more accurate and compact edit scripts that capture the developer's intent. This is achieved by improving the quality of the generated move and update actions, which are the main source of inaccurate actions generated by previous approaches. To evaluate our approach, we conducted a study with 11 external experts and manually analyzed the accuracy of 2400 randomly selected edit actions. Comparing IJM to GumTree and MTDIFF, the results show that IJM provides better accuracy for move and update actions and is more beneficial to understanding the changes.

description: International Conference on Software Engineering 2019, Technical Track. Artifact evaluation: available and evaluated. Code+Data available as reproducible OSS. Research on software evolution often focuses on mining changes in software repositories, but omits their pre-integration history. Our work allows for tracking this invisible evolution of software changes on mailing lists (used by many low-level system components) by connecting all early revisions of changes to their final version in repositories. Since only updates to fragments (i.e., patches) are available, identifying semantically similar changes is a non-trivial task that we solve language-independently. We evaluate our method on high-profile OSS projects like the Linux kernel, and validate its high accuracy using an elaborately created ground truth. Our approach can quantify properties of OSS development processes, which is an essential requirement for using OSS in reliable or safety-critical industrial products. We can also quantitatively determine if an open development process effectively aligns with given formal process requirements. We will report on integration of our results in workflows of the Linux Foundation, one of the largest non-profit technology consortia for open source, and joint work with the automotive industry to deploy our results in practise.

description: The results of this work have originally been published in. Refactorings constitute an effective means to improve quality and maintainability of evolving object-oriented programs. Search-based techniques have shown promising results in finding near-optimal sequences of behavior-preserving program transformations that (1) maximize code-quality metrics and (2) minimize the number of code changes. However, the impact of refactorings on non-functional properties like security has received little attention so far. To this end, we propose, as a further objective, to minimize the attack surface of object-oriented programs (i.e., to maximize strictness of declared accessibility of class members). Minimizing the attack surface naturally competes with applicability of established refactorings like MoveMethod, frequently used for improving code quality in terms of coupling/cohesion measures. Our tool implementation is based on an EMF meta-model for Java-like programs and utilizes MOMoT, a search-based model-transformation and optimization framework. Our experimental results gained from applying different accessibility-control strategies to a collection of real-world Java programs show the impact of attack surface minimization on design-improving refactorings. We further compare the results to those of existing refactoring tools.

description: We explore an alternative way to fabricate (In,Ga)N/GaN short-period superlattices on GaN(0001) by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. We exploit the existence of an In adsorbate structure manifesting itself by a $(\sqrt{3}\times\!\sqrt{3})\text{R}30^{\circ}$ surface reconstruction observed in-situ by reflection high-energy electron diffraction. This In adlayer accommodates a maximum of 1/3 monolayer of In on the GaN surface and, under suitable conditions, can be embedded into GaN to form an In$_{0.33}$Ga$_{0.67}$N quantum sheet whose width is naturally limited to a single monolayer. Periodically inserting these quantum sheets, we synthesize (In,Ga)N/GaN short-period superlattices with abrupt interfaces and high periodicity as demonstrated by x-ray diffractometry and scanning transmission electron microscopy. The embedded quantum sheets are found to consist of single monolayers with an In content of 0.25-0.29. For a barrier thickness of 6 monolayers, the superlattice gives rise to a photoluminescence band at 3.16 eV, close to the theoretically predicted values for these structures.

"Going Govern-mental for administration": an investigation of the evolution of the structure and function of Egyptian administration in the Pre and Early Dynastic periods
Creators: name: George, Matthew Warren Bernard
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The study of the administration in Egypt is ultimately a study of the control that the Egyptian government was able to exert over its population. However, despite the existence of scholarly works on later periods, there is comparatively little knowledge of the administration from the Late Predynastic and Early Dynastic periods. It is the goal of this research to track the evolution of the structure and function of the administration in Egypt from the end of the Predynastic Period through to the beginning of the Old Kingdom. This study will seek to combine textual, archaeological and iconographic data in order to provide both quantitative and qualitative data regarding the Egyptian administration. The expected outcome of this work is that it reveals the dynamic change experienced by the administration, and that we have a clearer picture in regard to how the early Egyptians viewed the administration, how it was utilised in the context of Egyptian society, and the role this entity played in the state formation process. This work also provides us with an understanding of how the perception of the administration has changed in modern scholarship throughout time.

In vielen größeren Unternehmen aus dem Bereich der Medizintechnik gibt es traditionelle Organisationsstrukturen, welche diese Komponentengliederung reflektieren. Diese Unternehmen stehen nun vor der Herausforderung, neue Arbeits- und Organisationsformen zu finden, welche die Integration agiler Methoden in existierende Produktentwicklungsprozesse ermöglichen. Daraus ergibt sich folgende Problemstellung: Wie kann man ein Medizinprodukt über mehrere Abteilungen und Teams hinweg, effizient mit agilen Projektmanagementmethoden wie Scrum entwickeln? Dieser Beitrag erläutert einen möglichen Lösungsansatz, wie man interdisziplinäre Systemfunktionen mit Hilfe agiler Vorgehensmodelle effizient umsetzen und auf Veränderungen der Anforderungen schnell reagieren kann. Dabei handelt es sich um einen Vorschlag aus der Praxis, welcher noch wissenschaftlich erprobt und optimiert werden muss.

description: The controlled surface wrinkling of bilayer systems is a widely known approach within so-called soft lithography. This method is used for structuring solid surfaces in the micro- and nano-range. Bilayer surface wrinkles show a high degree of uniformity in terms of their feature dimensions, but are at the same time often accompanied by defects within the surface structuring. Those defects can be of global dimensions like lateral surface cracks, or as for line defects of very localized dimensions. In the first part of this thesis, the possibility to control line defects by generating them specifically on previously defined boundary lines within the elastic substrate is shown. Thus, areas near the boundary lines are kept line defect-free. At the same time, these induced line defects show a high degree of symmetry under suitable conditions, which can be explained by finite element simulations. Furthermore, lateral surface cracks can be controlled and even avoided. For this purpose, a vertical elasticity gradient is generated in the thin layer of the two-layer system, which noticeably reduces the maximum in-plane stress within the layer and thus noticeably increases the crack resistance of the folded two-layer system. In the second part of this thesis the possibility of using two different atmospheric plasma systems to fold large film areas as well as complex 3D structures of elastomeric materials with high uniformity in their feature dimensions is shown. Up to now, it has only been possible to fold small areas on a laboratory scale, i.e. a maximum of a few cm2. Using atmospheric-pressure plasmas, this is now possible on a m2-scale and thus in an industrially relevant size range. In the last part of the thesis the possibility of using wrinkling on two-layer systems as a mechanical measuring method for molecular 2D films is shown, which otherwise could only be measured by AFM via nanoindentation of free-standing films. The results of this work help to understand and optimize existing wrinkling formation systems. In addition, by scaling existing systems up to industrial scale, it enables the future technical use of two-layer wrinkle systems. Furthermore, it shifts the technically feasible limits as a measuring method for thin films towards film thicknesses < 1 nm.

description: The NLRP3 inflammasome is involved in a diverse range of inflammatory diseases. The activation of inflammasomes must be tightly regulated to prevent excessive inflammation, and the protein ubiquitination system is reported to be one of the ways in which inflammasome activation is regulated. However, the deubiquitination regulatory mechanisms of inflammasome activation remain elusive. Here, we demonstrated that USP22 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 22) promotes NLRP3 degradation and inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation. USP22 deficiency or in vivo silencing significantly increases alum-induced peritonitis and lipopolysaccharide-induced systemic inflammation. Mechanistically, USP22 inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation via the promotion of ATG5-mediated macroautophagy/autophagy. USP22 stabilizes ATG5 via decreasing K27- and K48-linked ubiquitination of ATG5 at the Lys118 site. Taken together, these findings reveal the role USP22 plays in the regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and suggest a potential therapeutic target to treat NLRP3 inflammasome-related diseases.

description: Cloning is a simple way to create new variants of a system. While cheap at first, it increases maintenance cost in the long term. Eventually, the cloned variants need to be integrated into a configurable platform. Such an integration is challenging: it involves merging the usual code improvements between the variants, and also integrating the variable code (features) into the platform. As such, variant integration differs from traditional software merging, which does not produce or organize configurable code, but creates a single system that cannot be configured into variants. In practice, variant integration requires fine-grained code edits, performed in an exploratory manner, in multiple iterations. Unfortunately, little tool support exists for integrating cloned variants. In this work, we show that fine-grained code edits needed for integration can be alleviated by a small set of integration intentions—domain-specific actions declared over code snippets controlling the integration. Developers can interactively explore the integration space by declaring (or revoking) intentions on code elements. We contribute the intentions (e.g., 'keep functionality' or 'keep as a configurable feature') and the IDE tool INCLINE, which implements the intentions and five editable views that visualize the integration process and allow declaring intentions producing a configurable integrated platform. In a series of experiments, we evaluated the completeness of the proposed intentions, the correctness and performance of INCLINE, and the benefits of using intentions for variant integration. The experiments show that INCLINE can handle complex integration tasks, that views help to navigate the code, and that it consistently reduces mistakes made by developers during variant integration.

description: 2019 IEEE/ACM 41st International Conference on Software Engineering: Software Engineering in Practice [Context] Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) advocates the integrated use of models throughout all development phases of a system development life-cycle. It is also often suggested as a solution to cope with the challenges of engineering complex systems. However, MBSE adoption is no trivial task and companies, especially large ones, struggle to achieve it in a timely and effective way. [Goal] We aim to discover what are the best practices and strategies to implement MBSE in companies that develop embedded software systems. [Method] Using an inductive-deductive research approach, we conducted 14 semi-structured interviews with experts from 10 companies. Further, we analyzed the data and drew some conclusions which were validated by an on-line questionnaire in a triangulation fashion. [Results] Our findings are summarized in an empirically validated list of 18 best practices for MBSE adoption and through a prioritized list of the 5 most important best practices. [Conclusions] Raising engineers’ awareness regarding MBSE advantages and acquiring experience through small projects are considered the most important practices to increase the success of MBSE adoption.
An error analysis of Japanese scientists' research articles

description: For scientists in the twenty-first century, a mastery of written English for Research Publication Purposes (ERPP) is fundamental to professional success. For many Japanese scientists, this is a source of frustration given their use of English as a foreign language is subject to idiosyncrasies, which may be perceived by editors, reviewers, and readers as errors detracting from the impact of their research. As a basis for building data-driven needs-specific pedagogical support, this study investigates the major error patterns in Japanese scientists' written English. Participants in the study are 13 Japanese scientists working in the field of materials science. The primary data are the participants' scientific research article manuscripts (i.e., the research articles before publication). An elaborated corpus-assisted Error Analysis (EA) methodology is employed, investigating error patterns through the lens of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL). In short, the EA involves the collection of texts, identification of errors in the texts, and the classification, linguistic description, and quantification of those errors, with these classifications and descriptions elaborated through the SFL theory. For purposes of scope, the investigation focuses on errors in nominal groups—a key feature of scientific English. A total of 654 nominal group errors are identified and analysed according to the elaborated EA methodology. From the analyses, two major error patterns emerge: errors with articles and plural -s, and errors with preposition -of. Results highlight the difficulties Japanese scientists face with both the pre- and post-modification of complex nominal groups. Particularly, the omission of the indefinite article a with singular referents, and the misselection of embedded -of prepositional phrases in post-modification are revealed as dominant errors in this study. Detailed descriptions of the two major errors patterns and their implications along with recommendations for pedagogical intervention are presented.

description: Fog computing uses geographically distributed fog nodes that can supply nearby end devices with low-latency access to cloud-like compute resources. If the load of a fog node exceeds its capacity, some non-latency-critical application components may be offloaded to the cloud. Using commercial cloud offerings for such offloading incurs financial costs. Optimally deciding which application components to keep in the fog node and which ones to offload to the cloud is a difficult combinatorial problem. We introduce an optimization algorithm that (i) guarantees that the deployment always satisfies capacity constraints and affinity requirements, (ii) achieves near-optimal cloud usage costs, and (iii) is fast enough to be run online. The practical use of the algorithm is illustrated by applying it to optimizing the applications in a mobile factory.

description: QE LaB Business Services integrated features focusing on requirements engineering offered by OpenReq, an EU Horizon 2020 project, into an existing commercial software for the management of security requirements. The microservices were integrated as part of a dedicated Open Call project where participants from industry were asked to integrate novel features from OpenReq into their own tools and evaluate them. In this paper, we discuss our experiences with the Open Call format of the project as well as the issues we encountered and lessons we learned following scientifically acknowledge success factors.
Everything we'd like to do with LSST data, but we don't know (yet) how

description: The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), the next-generation optical imaging survey sited at Cerro Pachon in Chile, will provide an unprecedented database of astronomical measurements. The LSST design, with an 8.4m (6.7m effective) primary mirror, a 9.6 sq. deg. field of view, and a 3.2 Gigapixel camera, will allow about 10,000 sq. deg. of sky to be covered twice per night, every three to four nights on average, with typical 5-sigma depth for point sources of $r$=24.5 (AB). With over 800 observations in $ugrizy$ bands over a 10-year period, these data will enable a deep stack reaching $r$=27.5 (about 5 magnitudes deeper than SDSS) and faint time-domain astronomy. The measured properties of newly discovered and known astrometric and photometric transients will be publicly reported within 60 sec after observation. The vast database of about 30 trillion observations of 40 billion objects will be mined for the unexpected and used for precision experiments in astrophysics. In addition to a brief introduction to LSST, we discuss a number of astro-statistical challenges that need to be overcome to extract maximum information and science results from LSST dataset.

description: The rescue scenario is evolving every day, with both the evolution and the industrial Toxic Materials, the globalization of infectious diseases, it’s favored by the current need for people to travel to other states, and the import of foreign products. The need for training for rescue operations increases exponentially in response to natural events that interact with human activities, and especially in response to man-made events, including terrorist attack that come every day more in the field of CBRNe events. Currently in Italy the rescue system is fragmented into various territorial entities, and there is no coordination capillary unified and standardized nationwide. Every European country has a different system response. An international course may be the answer to unify the rescue in Europe. Keywords: First responder; international course.
