description: Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous environmental organisms that can cause chronic pulmonary infection, particularly in individuals with pre-existing inflammatory lung disease such as cystic fibrosis (CF). Pulmonary disease caused by NTM has emerged as a major threat to the health of individuals with CF but remains difficult to diagnose and problematic to treat. In response to this challenge, the US Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) and the European Cystic Fibrosis Society (ECFS) convened an expert panel of specialists to develop consensus recommendations for the screening, investigation, diagnosis and management of NTM pulmonary disease in individuals with CF. Nineteen experts were invited to participate in the recommendation development process. Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome (PICO) methodology and systematic literature reviews were employed to inform draft recommendations. An anonymous voting process was used by the committee to reach consensus. All committee members were asked to rate each statement on a scale of: 0, completely disagree, to 9, completely agree; with 80% or more of scores between 7 and 9 being considered ‘good’ agreement. Additionally, the committee solicited feedback from the CF communities in the USA and Europe and considered the feedback in the development of the final recommendation statements. Three rounds of voting were conducted to achieve 80% consensus for each recommendation statement. Through this process, we have generated a series of pragmatic, evidence-based recommendations for the screening, investigation, diagnosis and treatment of NTM infection in individuals with CF as an initial step in optimising management for this challenging condition.

description: De Haas-van Alphen oscillations of the organic metal $θ$-(ET)$_4$ZnBr$_4$(C$_6$H$_4$Cl$_2$) are studied in pulsed magnetic fields up to 81 T. The long decay time of the pulse allows determining reliable field-dependent amplitudes of Fourier components with frequencies up to several kiloteslas. The Fourier spectrum is in agreement with the model of a linear chain of coupled orbits. In this model, all the observed frequencies are linear combinations of the frequency linked to the basic orbit $α$ and to the magnetic-breakdown orbit $β$.

Using Constraints for Equivalent Mutant Detection

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Software Engineering (cs.SE)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In mutation testing the question whether a mutant is equivalent to its program is important in order to compute the correct mutation score. Unfortunately, answering this question is not always possible and can hardly be obtained just by having a look at the program's structure. In this paper we introduce a method for solving the equivalent mutant problem using a constraint representation of the program and its mutant. In particularly the approach is based on distinguishing test cases, i.e., test inputs that force the program and its mutant to behave in a different way. Beside the foundations of the approach, in this paper we also present the algorithms and first empirical results.

Liraglutide and Renal Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes
Creators: name: de Boer, Ian H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: BACKGROUND In a randomized, controlled trial that compared liraglutide, a glucagon-like pep - tide 1 analogue, with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes and high cardio - vascular risk who were receiving usual care, we found that liraglutide resulted in lower risks of the primary end point (nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes) and death. However, the long-term effects of liraglutide on renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes are un - known. METHODS We report the prespecified secondary renal outcomes of that randomized, con - trolled trial in which patients were assigned to receive liraglutide or placebo. The secondary renal outcome was a composite of new-onset persistent macroalbumin - uria, persistent doubling of the serum creatinine level, end-stage renal disease, or death due to renal disease. The risk of renal outcomes was determined with the use of time-to-event analyses with an intention-to-treat approach. Changes in the estimated glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria were also analyzed. RESULTS A total of 9340 patients underwent randomization, and the median follow-up of the patients was 3.84 years. The renal outcome occurred in fewer participants in the liraglutide group than in the placebo group (268 of 4668 patients vs. 337 of 4672; hazard ratio, 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.67 to 0.92; P = 0 .003). This result was driven primarily by the new onset of persistent macroalbuminuria, which occurred in fewer participants in the liraglutide group than in the placebo group (161 vs. 215 patients; hazard ratio, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.60 to 0.91; P = 0 .004). The rates of renal adverse events were similar in the liraglutide group and the placebo group (15.1 events and 16.5 events per 1000 patient-years), including the rate of acute kidney injury (7.1 and 6.2 events per 1000 patient-years, respectively). CONCLUSIONS This prespecified secondary analysis shows that, when added to usual care, lira - glutide resulted in lower rates of the development and progression of diabetic kidney disease than placebo.
Measurement of the distributions of event-by-event flow harmonics in lead--lead collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC

description: The distributions of event-by-event harmonic flow coefficients v_n for n=2-4 are measured in sqrt(s_NN)=2.76 TeV Pb+Pb collisions using the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The measurements are performed using charged particles with transverse momentum pT> 0.5 GeV and in the pseudorapidity range |eta|<2.5 in a dataset of approximately 7 ub^-1 recorded in 2010. The shapes of the v_n distributions are described by a two-dimensional Gaussian function for the underlying flow vector in central collisions for v_2 and over most of the measured centrality range for v_3 and v_4. Significant deviations from this function are observed for v_2 in mid-central and peripheral collisions, and a small deviation is observed for v_3 in mid-central collisions. It is shown that the commonly used multi-particle cumulants are insensitive to the deviations for v_2. The v_n distributions are also measured independently for charged particles with 0.51 GeV. When these distributions are rescaled to the same mean values, the adjusted shapes are found to be nearly the same for these two pT ranges. The v_n distributions are compared with the eccentricity distributions from two models for the initial collision geometry: a Glauber model and a model that includes corrections to the initial geometry due to gluon saturation effects. Both models fail to describe the experimental data consistently over most of the measured centrality range.

description: A spatial potential trap is formed in a 6.0 μm Al(Ga)N nanowire by varying the Al composition along its length during epitaxial growth. The polariton emission characteristics of a dielectric microcavity with the single nanowire embedded in-plane has been studied at room temperature. Excitation is provided at the Al(Ga)N end of the nanowire and polariton emission is observed from the lowest bandgap GaN region of the nanowire. Comparison of the results with those measured in an identical microcavity with an uniform GaN nanowire and having an identical exciton-photon detuning suggests evaporative cooling of the polaritons as they are transported across the trap in the Al(Ga)N nanowire. Measurement of the spectral characteristics of the polariton emission, their momentum distribution, first-order spatial coherence and time-resolved measurements of polariton cooling provide strong evidence of the formation of an equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensate, a unique state of matter in solid state systems, in the GaN region of the nanowire, at room temperature. An equilibrium condensate is not formed in the GaN nanowire dielectric microcavity without the spatial potential trap.

LA SEMPLIFICAZIONE DEI PROCEDIMENTI DALLA PROSPETTIVA DELL'EFFICIENZA
Creators: name: SAVIO, MARCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2017

description: L?obiettivo della presente indagine � analizzare la relazione fra semplificazione dei processi civili ed efficienza della giustizia. Qualsiasi Stato moderno e democratico deve assicurare l?amministrazione della giustizia ai soggetti che lo compongono e questa giustizia deve essere effettiva ed efficiente, pertanto l?efficienza � un parametro importante nella valutazione di un sistema giudiziario. Parallelamente, un sistema giudiziario dovrebbe respingere le forme procedurali che siano incapaci di assicurare una protezione effettiva dei diritti individuali. Questi due aspetti devono essere messi in connessione fra loro con attenzione, perch� la semplificazione del diritto processuale � strettamente legata a un fine specifico, dato dalla massima efficienza perseguibile in un dato contesto. Perci�, la ricerca si focalizza dapprima sul concetto di efficienza (cosa rende efficiente un processo?), cercando di scegliere fra due posizioni: un?efficienza fondata sulla durata e un?efficienza basata sulla qualit�. Successivamente, la semplificazione del processo viene collocata nell?ecosistema di riferimento, costituito dalla tipologia di efficienza prescelta (nel nostro caso, quella fondata sulla qualit� del risultato). In questa seconda parte della ricerca giungeremo a comprendere se semplificare significhi soltanto (o principalmente) escludere determinate regole processuali oppure se un processo semplificato possa nascere anche dal rafforzamento di alcuni aspetti della procedura stessa.

We give full characterization for which points on $Γ$ the extremal values of the sum are obtained in terms of $λ$. In the case of the regular dodecahedron and icosahedron in $\mathbb{R}^3$ we obtain results for which values of $λ$ the corresponding sum is independent of the position of $M$ on $Γ$. We use elementary analytic and purely geometric methods.

Hotel Front Office Training: Turning Expense Into Investment
Creators: name: Sanders, Thomas
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2011

description: The process of employee training is typically looked upon as an expense, but perhaps a more insightful view would be to consider employee training an investment. This becomes possible when employees are taught to execute service-marketing principles during customer interactions. Well-executed interactions then lead to satisfied guests, repeat purchases, and company profitability. The purpose of this paper is to develop a customer focused training guideline integrating service-marketing concepts into the front office employee training process. A literature review was conducted to identify service marketing concepts and best training practices that can be applied to the hotel employee workplace. This information was then used to formulate an effective training guideline. Emphasis is placed upon four key service-marketing concepts and how they relate to the both the training environment and employee workplace. The guideline is designed to allow trainers and management teams opportunities to customize the training content, allowing for application across multiple hotel business models.

description: Complex real-world networks commonly reveal characteristic groups of nodes like communities and modules. These are of value in various applications, especially in the case of large social and information networks. However, while numerous community detection techniques have been presented in the literature, approaches for other groups of nodes are relatively rare and often limited in some way. We present a simple propagation-based algorithm for general group detection that requires no a priori knowledge and has near ideal complexity. The main novelty here is that different types of groups are revealed through an adequate hierarchical group refinement procedure. The proposed algorithm is validated on various synthetic and real-world networks, and rigorously compared against twelve other state-of-the-art approaches on group detection, hierarchy discovery and link prediction tasks. The algorithm is comparable to the state of the art in community detection, while superior in general group detection and link prediction. Based on the comparison, we also dis- cuss some prominent directions for future work on group detection in complex networks.

description: Multi-threading is currently supported by several well-known Prolog systems providing a highly portable solution for applications that can benefit from concurrency. When multi-threading is combined with tabling, we can exploit the power of higher procedural control and declarative semantics. However, despite the availability of both threads and tabling in some Prolog systems, the implementation of these two features implies complex ties to each other and to the underlying engine. Until now, XSB was the only Prolog system combining multi-threading with tabling. In XSB, tables may be either private or shared between threads. While thread-private tables are easier to implement, shared tables have all the associated issues of locking, synchronization and potential deadlocks. In this paper, we propose an alternative view to XSB's approach. In our proposal, each thread views its tables as private but, at the engine level, we use a common table space where tables are shared among all threads. We present three designs for our common table space approach: No-Sharing (NS) (similar to XSB's private tables), Subgoal-Sharing (SS) and Full-Sharing (FS). The primary goal of this work was to reduce the memory usage for the table space but, our experimental results, using the YapTab tabling system with a local evaluation strategy, show that we can also achieve significant reductions on running time.

We investigate, through a differential analysis of the two binary components, whether cool surface spots are responsible for suppressing the temperature of the primary. In Paper I, we found a significant discrepancy between the empirical surface gravity of the primary and that inferred via fine analysis of its spectrum. Here we find precisely the same discrepancy in surface gravity, both qualitatively and quantitatively. While this may again be ascribed to either cool spots or model opacity errors, it implies that cool spots cannot be responsible for preferentially lowering the temperature of the primary: if they were, spot effects on the primary spectrum should be preferentially larger, and they are not. The Teff we infer for the primary and secondary, from the TiO-epsilon bands alone, show the same reversal, in the same ratio, as is empirically observed, bolstering the validity of our analysis. In turn, this implies that if suppression of convection by magnetic fields on the primary is the fundamental cause of the Teff reversal, then it cannot be a local suppression yielding spots mainly on the primary (though both components may be equally spotted), but a global suppression in the interior of the primary. We briefly discuss current theories of how this might work.

description: In this era of "Services" everywhere, with the explosive growth of E-Commerce and B2B transactions, there is a pressing need for the development of intelligent negotiation systems which consists of feasible architecture, a reliable framework and flexible multi agent based protocols developed in specialized negotiation languages with complete semantics and support for message passing between the buyers and sellers. This is possible using web services on the internet. The key issue is negotiation and its automation. In this paper we review the classical negotiation methods and some of the existing architectures and frameworks. We are proposing here a new combinatory framework and architecture, NAAS. The key feature in this framework is a component for prediction or probabilistic behavior pattern recognition of a buyer, along with the other classical approaches of negotiation frameworks and architectures. Negotiation is practically very complex activity to automate without human intervention so in the future we also intend to develop a new protocol which will facilitate automation of all the types of negotiation strategies like bargaining, bidding, auctions, under our NAAS framework.

description: Chemical drug design based on the biochemical characteristics of cancer cells has become an important strategy for discovery of novel anticancer drugs to enhance the cancer targeting effects and biocompatibility, and decrease toxic side effects. Camptothecin (CPT) demonstrated strong anticancer activity in clinical trials but also notorious adverse effects. In this study, we presented a smart targeted delivery system (Biotin-ss-CPT) that consists of cancer-targeted moiety (biotin), a cleavable disulfide linker (S-S bond) and the active drug CPT. Biotin-ss-CPT was found to exhibit potent effects on the migration of cancer cells and induced apoptosis by induction of ROS-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and perturbation of GSH/GPXs system, as well as activation of caspases. In vivo tumor suppression investigation including toxicity evaluation and pathology analysis, accompanied by MR images showed that Biotin-ss-CPT can be recognized specifically and selectively and taken up preferentially by cancers cells, followed by localization and accumulation effectively in tumor site, then released CPT by biological response to achieve high therapeutic effect and remarkably reduced the side effects that free CPT caused, such as liver damage, renal injury, and weight loss to realize precise cancer therapy. Taken together, our results suggest that biotinylation and bioresponsive functionalization of anticancer drugs could be a good way for the discovery of next-generation cancer therapeutics.

description: The toroidal, compression and vortical dipole strength functions in semi-magic $^{124}$Sn (and partly in doubly-magic $^{100,132}$Sn) are analyzed within the random-phase-approximation method with the SkT6, SkI3, SLy6, SV-bas, and SkM* Skyrme forces. The isoscalar (T=0), isovector (T=1), and electromagnetic ('elm') channels are considered. Both convection $j_c$ and magnetization $j_m$ nuclear currents are taken into account. The calculations basically confirm the previous results obtained for $^{208}$Pb with the force SLy6. In particular, it is shown that the vortical and toroidal strengths are dominated by $j_c$ in T=0 channel and by $j_m$ in T=1 and 'elm' channels. The compression strength is always determined by $j_c$. It is also shown that the 'elm' strength (relevant for (e,e') reaction) is very similar to T=1 one. The toroidal mode resides in the region of the pygmy resonance. So, perhaps, this region embraces both irrotational (pygmy) and vortical (toroidal) flows.

The SLoWPoKES Catalog of Low-mass Ultra-wide Binaries: A Cool Stars Resource for Testing Fundamental Properties and for Constraining Binary Formation Theory

description: We present results from the Sloan Low-mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES) catalog of ultra-wide (10^3-10^5.5 AU), low-mass (K5-M7) common proper motion binaries. We constructed a Galactic model, based on empirical stellar number density and 3D velocity distributions, to select bona fide pairs with probability of chance alignment <5%, making SLoWPoKES an efficient sample for followup observations. Our initial catalog contains 1342 disk dwarf, subdwarf, and white dwarf-red dwarf systems and is the largest collection of low-mass, wide binaries ever assembled. The diversity---in mass, metallicity, age, and evolutionary states---of SLoWPoKES pairs makes it a valuable resource of coeval laboratories to examine and constrain the physical properties of low-mass stars. SLoWPoKES pairs show signatures of two (or more) formation modes in the distribution of the physical separation and higher-order multiplicity. Neither dynamical dissipation of primordial triples/quadruples or dynamical capture of ejected stars can explain the observed populations by itself. We use followup spectroscopic observations to recalibrate the metallicity-sensitive ζ_(TiO/CaH) index by assuming that both members of the binary system have the same composition. Our new formulation is a significantly better tracer of absolute metallicity, particularly for the early-type M dwarfs. The SLoWPoKES catalog is publicly available on a custom data visualization portal.

title: Cascading simulation: A critical perspective on Barack Obamas foreign policy during the 2008 presidential election
Creators: name: Beier, Ian P.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: Entering the 2008 presidential election, Barack Obama had little to no foreign policy experience. On face, this would seem to make Obama an unlikely choice for President. Yet, he was able to defeat Hilary Clinton and John McCain, the two candidates with significant foreign policy experience. My thesis examines Barack Obama's speech "A World That Stands as One" as a case study for understanding how simulation operates in the context of presidential campaigns. Using Robert Entman's theory of "cascading activation," I develop a theory of "cascading simulation," arguing that image construction descends downward from the president through the media. In order to make this argument, I examine the text of the speech itself, the CNN broadcast of the event, and then newspaper recounts of the event in the New York Times and Agence France Presse. As a result, these three levels of interpretation work together to simulate foreign policy experience.

Excitonic Instabilities and Insulating States in Bilayer Graphene

description: The competing ground states of bilayer graphene are studied by applying renormalization group techniques to a bilayer honeycomb lattice with nearest neighbor hopping. In the absence of interactions, the Fermi surface of this model at half-filling consists of two nodal points with momenta $\mathbf{K}$, $\mathbf{K}'$, where the conduction band and valence band touch each other, yielding a semi-metal. Since near these two points the energy dispersion is quadratic with perfect particle-hole symmetry, excitonic instabilities are inevitable if inter-band interactions are present. Using a perturbative renormalization group analysis up to the one-loop level, we find different competing ordered ground states, including ferromagnetism, superconductivity, spin and charge density wave states with ordering vector $\mathbf{Q}=\mathbf{K}-\mathbf{K}'$, and excitonic insulator states. In addition, two states with valley symmetry breaking are found in the excitonic insulating and ferromagnetic phases. This analysis strongly suggests that the ground state of bilayer graphene should be gapped, and with the exception of superconductivity, all other possible ground states are insulating.

description: As of 2008, the U.S. Department of Labor is predicting a need for greater than one million new registered nurses by the year 2016 (American Associations of Colleges of Nursing [AACN], 2008). One way that nursing schools around the country are dealing with this issue is through the creation of accelerated second-degree programs for non-nursing graduates.
The purpose of this descriptive study was to examine the perceptions of educational preparation of accelerated second-degree baccalaureate graduates, who have been out of school for at least one year, but no longer than four years. The sample consisted of 54 graduates from an accelerated nursing program in either Idaho or Nevada. Using the Survey of Nurses' Perceptions of Educational Preparation (SNPEP), it was found that the majority of participants indicated that their accelerated nursing program prepared them for their first job, provided them with management skills, leadership skills, communication skills, documentation skills, decision making skills, organizational skills, provided instructors who acted as role models, encouraged independent problem solving, utilized multiple evaluation strategies, and helped them to feel confident in their ability.
