Subjects: Ergometer rowing; elite athletes; sport kinematics; sport biomechanics

description: Rowing is a motor skill that requires high levels of consistency, coherence, accuracy and continuity, particularly at an elite level [1]. The rowing stroke consists of two phases: the drive, during which force is applied to the blade in order to move the boat relative to the water, and the recover, during which the rowers return to their former position [2]. The goal of the current study was to investigate the kinematic differences between rowers of International Level (IL) and National level (NL), in order to identify parameters that have the potential to characterise the best ergometer rowing technique. With this objective, we analysed three IL (age: 18.3 (0.5) [years]; height: 183.0 (8.8) [cm]; weight: 76.3 (8.9) [kg]), and thirteen NL rowers (22.2 (1.9) [years]; 182.5 (4.7) [cm]; 77.1 (7.4) [kg]), using a motion capture system (BTS SpA, Italy). Duration of the stroke phases, Range of Motion (RoM) of the knee 3D trajectories, length of the body Centre of Mass trajectory (COMd) and the curvature of the wrist path during the stroke (Index of Curvature, IC) were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. The findings showed that the IL rowers presented a non-significant decrease of the drive phase duration (IL: 0.94 (0.04) [s]; NL: 1.05 (0.08) [s]; p= 0.122), higher Knee Rom (IL: 0.68 (0.04) [m]; NL: 0.51 (0.02) [m]; p= 0.018) in the Anterior-Posterior direction, a higher COMd (IL: 2.62 (0.12) [m]; NL: 1.74 (0.15) [m]; p=0.026) and a higher IC (IL 0.984(0.003); NL: 0.980(0.003); p=0.040). In conclusion, the stroke duration, the amplitude of the movement in the Anterior-Posterior direction and the control of the wrist path seem to be associated with high-level performances; the findings suggest that IL rowers present a better command of technique, timing and power, compared to NL rowers.

description: This article questions existing approaches in designing parental controls and puts forward a hypothesis to reimagine technologies to mediate parent-child interactions. First, we present an overview of the current parental controls. Second, we explain the gradual shift away from the idea of ‘harmful’ digital media in parental mediation studies and introduce previous work in CSCW and HCI that has proposed solutions to support discussions about digital media between parents and children. Then, we hypothesize that an emphasis on collaboration and mutual learning might help researchers and designers to rethink and reimagine technologies that support parent-child interactions with and through digital media. Finally, we share our findings of two co-creation workshops with children and parents on ways to instill parental involvement in children’s digital media use. The workshop yielded insights on the differing views between parents and children about how technologies might instill long-term negotiations based on parents’ and children’s experiences, enriched by real-use data.

Subjects: Adipose stem cells; cancer cells; breast cancer; co-culture; pSMAD2/3

description: Recent studies showed that mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue can promote tumour progression, raising some concerns regarding their use in regenerative medicine. In this context, we co-cultured either SAOS2 osteosarcoma or MCF7 breast cancer cells with human adipose stem cells (hASCs), in order to evaluate potential effects of cancer cells on hASCs differentiation, in vitro and in vivo. In this study we observed that both SAOS2 and MCF7 cell lines induced an increase in hASCs proliferation, compared to hASCs alone, but, surprisingly, neither changes in the expression of CD90, CD29, CD324 and vimentin, nor variations in the Twist and Slug mRNAs were detectable. Noteworthy, SAOS2 and MCF7 cells induced in hASCs an upregulation of CD34 expression and Stemness genes, including OCT3/4, Nanog, Sox2 and leptin, and a decrease in angiogenic factors, including CD31, PDGFα, PDGFRα, PDGFRβ and VEGF. SMAD and pSMAD2/3 increased only in hASCs alone. After 21 days of co-culture, hASCs differentiated both in adipocytes and endothelial cells. Moreover, co-injection of MCF7 cells with hASCs led to the formation of a highly vascularized tumour. Taken together our findings suggest that mesenchymal stem cells, under tumour cell induction, do not differentiate in vitro or facilitate the angiogenesis of the tumour in vivo, thus opening interesting new scenarios in the relationship between cancer and stem cells. These findings may also lead to greater caution, when managing autologous fat grafts in cancer patients.

Subjects: Calcium signalling; acidic stores; flavanones

description: Two Pore Channels (TPCs) are an emerging family of intracellular channels, expressed on acidic compartments, which mediate calcium signaling evoked by NAADP. In particular, we demonstrated that TPC2 isoform has a main role in angiogenesis (Favia et al. PNAS 2014 Nov 4;111(44):E4706-15). TPC2 inhibition is emerging as a key therapeutic step in a range of important pathological conditions including the progression and metastatic potential of cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and Ebola virus infection. We introduce naringenin, a natural flavonoid, as a novel TPC2 inhibitor as shown by electrophysiological evidence in a heterologous system, i.e. Arabidopsis vacuoles lacking endogenous TPCs. In view of the control exerted by TPC2 on intracellular calcium signaling and angiogenesis, we demonstrate that naringenin dampens intracellular calcium responses of human endothelial cells stimulated with VEGF, histamine or NAADP-AM, but not with ATP or Angiopoietin-1. The ability of naringenin to impair TPC2-dependent biological activities was further explored in an established in vivo model in which VEGF-containing matrigel plugs implanted in mice failed to be vascularized in the presence of naringenin. Our present data suggest that naringenin inhibition of TPC2 activity and the observed inhibition of angiogenic response to VEGF are linked by impaired intracellular calcium signaling. The relationship we describe here between naringenin and TPC2 is therefore likely to have wider implications in systems other than the vascular system, thus representing a novel tool for experimental, and possibly even clinical, research purposes.

description: Data entry is a core computing activity performed by office workers every day. Prior research on this topic has tended to study data entry in controlled lab environments. In this paper, we interviewed nine financial administrators from two large universities to learn about their practices for conducting data entry work. We found that financial information often has to be retrieved from multiple electronic and paper sources, and involves briefly keeping items in memory when switching between sources. Interviewees reported that they batched a lot of data entry tasks into a single session to complete the work quickly, and mitigated the risk of data entry errors by time-consuming practices of double-checking. However, prior lab studies suggest that double-checking is a poor strategy as it takes time and people are poor at spotting errors. This work has implications for how future data entry research should be conducted.

Subjects: Term placenta; amniotic membrane; ultrastructural analysis; secretory activity

description: Human Amniotic Epithelial Cells (hAEC) from term placenta are a promising source of stem cells for regenerative medicine. In a previous study we observed histological heterogeneity, together with different expression of pluripotency markers and content in lipid granules among four regions of amniotic membrane (AM). To better investigate cell heterogeneity among different cell populations, we performed an ultrastructural study with Transmission Electron Microscopy. Term placentae from healthy women were collected after caesarean section and AM samples were freshly isolated from four regions: R1 (close to the umbilical cord); R2 (intermediate); R3 (peripheral to the placental disc); R4 (reflected amnion). Ultrastructural analysis revealed an epithelium of variable thickness, cellular shape, amount and type of vesicles in the four regions. The epithelium showed columnar hAEC with increased height in R1 and R3 and a multi-layered organization in R3, whereas it was a monolayer in the other regions. The highest amount of granules and vesicles was observed in R3, although R4 showed granules with a different density. Furthermore, in R1, R3 and R4 we noticed several vesicles of 100-150 nm in diameter, probably exosome-like structures, suggesting a consistent secretory activity. All along its length the epithelium was rich in microvilli both on the side facing the amniotic fluid and in lateral contacts (narrow desmosomal junctions) between cells. This in situ investigation shows for the first time differences in secretory activity and granules appearance along the AM as a proof of its heterogeneity. This could be relevant in clinical applications as the choice of the area could improve the effectiveness of AM/hAEC transplantation.

description: We propose an analytic approach – Socially Implicated Work Objects (SIWOs) – to describe and unify diverse shared virtual objects and work practices in organizations. SIWOs are virtual objects that connect two or more people. SIWOs provide support to coordinate work, especially across distances. Examples of relevant types of work include collaborative scheduling through calendars, collaborative task management, collaborative request management, and co-authoring of documents. Beginning with familiar features from calendars, we build the more general case for SIWOs as a strong concept describing an under-supported class of coordinative artifacts in organizations. With a theoretical background combining Schmidt’s work on coordinative practices with Bjørn’s and Chistensen’s concept of relation work, we explore how work practices and work virtual objects could be configured and interrelated through a common and extensible abstraction.

description: Background: The juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the main rheumatic disease in pediatric age. The rheumatic diseases are main causes of physical disability and have high economic costs for society. The aim of this study was to evaluate if the physical activity can prevent the decline in balance related diseases in children with previous diagnosis of JIA. Materials and Methods: Fifty-six subjects were enrolled in this study. Thirty-nine healthy subjects were included in the control group (CG) and seventeen in juvenile idiopathic arthritis group (JIAG). Subsequently, the JIAG was stratified in two ones, respectively: JIAG active (JIAG-ACT) and JIAG sedentary (JIAG-SED). The analysis was measured through the FreeMed posturography system (by Sensor Medica). STATISTICA software was adopted to perform an unpaired t test. A P value lower than 0.05 was considered to be statistically relevant. Results: Significant differences were identified in JIAG-SED vs CG in many parameters considered (Length of sway path of the CoP, P< 0,0001; Ellipse surface, p<0,05; Y mean, p<0,05). Against, except Length of sway path (p<0,05), the JIAG-ACT showed a similar trend respect to CG. Conclusion: This pilot confirms the benefits for children with JIA to perform a training program due to prevent future diseases and increase the balance levels. Clearly, the sample is not adequate to make conclusions. More data coming from larger sample size studies are necessary to confirm these results.

description: Games that revolve around user-generated content have been explored mainly from a ludic perspective, leaving the work practices that are entailed in content production underexplored. What we argue in this paper is that there is an underlying economy in Minecraft’s community, which plays a significant role in the game’s current form. Our ethnographic fieldwork revealed the various aspects of the work of producing in-game content, by teasing out the discrete segments of the arc of work of commissioning, creating and delivering a Minecraft map. The infrastructure this work relies on is fragmented though, with the various accountability systems in place being appropriations by the players themselves. This raises a number of design implications related to how members coordinate tasks and articulate their work.

description: Es wurde ein kurzer geschichtlicher Überblick über die Erforschung sowohl der Kugelsternhaufen als auch der chemisch pekuliaren Sterne gegeben. Die physikalischen Eigenschaften des Galaktischen Kugelsternhaufensystems wurden ebenso wie die Erforschung von chemisch pekuliaren Sternen am Horizontalast (HB) erörtert. Da diese Arbeit eine Machbarkeitsstudie war, ob chemisch pekuliare Sterne am HB mittels Delta-a-Photometrie detektierbar sind, wurde ein möglicher Nutzen der Delta-a-Photometrie in Bezug auf die Erforschung von Kugelsternhaufen hervorgehoben. Die Anwendung dieser Methode erfolgte am Beispiel von M13. Die einzelnen Schritte der Photometrie und deren Ergebnisse wurden präsentiert. Aufgrund schlechter Daten konnte der angestrebte Vergleich mit den Daten von Behr et al. 1999 nicht ausgeführt werden. Dennoch gibt es Hinweise auf die Entdeckung chemisch pekuliarer Sterne am HB. Außerdem konnte eine auffällige Ansammlung von Sternen mit deutlichen Delta-a-Werten jenseits des HB entdeckt werden. Für ein Verständnis dieser Objekte bedarf es jedoch noch weiterer Forschung.

description: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has recently been adopted in a wide range of physics and engineering domains for its ability to solve decision-making problems that were previously out of reach due to a combination of non-linearity and high dimensionality. In the last few years, it has spread in the field of computational mechanics, and particularly in fluid dynamics, with recent applications in flow control and shape optimization. In this work, we conduct a detailed review of existing DRL applications to fluid mechanics problems. In addition, we present recent results that further illustrate the potential of DRL in Fluid Mechanics. The coupling methods used in each case are covered, detailing their advantages and limitations. Our review also focuses on the comparison with classical methods for optimal control and optimization. Finally, several test cases are described that illustrate recent progress made in this field. The goal of this publication is to provide an understanding of DRL capabilities along with state-of-the-art applications in fluid dynamics to researchers wishing to address new problems with these methods.

description: During the last year we found a plethora of variants while performing anatomical dissection on human cadavers. In the present report we describe the previously quoted variation morphologies focusing on their clinical relevance. The first variant observed was a left vertebral artery (VA) arising from the aortic arch, it is present in the 5% to the 8 % of the individuals. The left VA of aortic origin showed a remarkably higher incidence of arterial dissection than left VA of a left subclavian artery origin. Also, the present pattern has to be taken into consideration before any intervention in the local region as to avoid unexpected events in relation to the aberrant vertebral artery. A second dissection study led to the finding of the right posterior communicating artery of the Circle of Willis absence. This morphology may be a relevant risk factor for ischemic cerebral infarction if the patient suffers of internal carotid artery occlusion or severe stenosis. The same cadaver presented another variant: anterior inferior cerebellar artery bilateral absence. While dissecting the vein of abdomen and thorax, we discover other two variants: bilateral iliolumbar veins draining into the testicular veins and three pulmonary veins entering into the right side of the left atrium. Cognition of the first variation it is critical during the anterior approach for spinal procedures, it will help surgeons to anticipate and to avoid potentially catastrophic complication such massive haemorrhages due to an avulsion of an unexpected extra vein; whether the knowledge of the pulmonary veins variant, compatible with R3a Marom’s classification pattern, is essential for guidance during paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation procedures and preclude perioperative bleeding in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Anatomical variant findings enlarge the current knowledge of anatomists, but also the cognition of surgeons and physicians that need to be aware and always up to date on the incidence level of the variable course of arteries, veins, and nerves especially while performing clinical tests and surgical operations.

description: Dynamic stability is imperative for the operation of the electric power system. This article provides analytical results and effective stability criteria focusing on the interplay of network structures and the local dynamics of synchronous machines. The results are based on an extensive linear stability analysis of the third-order model for synchronous machines, comprising the classical power-swing equations and the voltage dynamics. The article explicitly covers the impact of Ohmic losses in a linear approximation in power grids, which are often neglected in analytical studies. Necessary and sufficient stability conditions are formulated, and different routes to instability are analysed, yielding concrete mathematical criteria applicable to all scales of power grids, from transmission to distribution grids, as well as microgrids. A subsequent numerical study of the criteria is presented, without and with resistive terms, to test how tight the derived analytical results are.

description: Endometrial cancer is –according to the World Cancer Research Fund International- the 6th most common cancer among women worldwide and the 15th most common type of cancer in general. In 2020 alone, 417000 new cases were reported. Furthermore it is a type of cancer that is proved to be linked with lifestyle; so, clinicians are not only to suspect the diagnosis and draw the plan of action to treat but also to prevent the disease early on. Sadly however, until today the diagnosis is not rarely delayed. This makes treatment more difficult and worsens the prognosis. It is a necessity to find the right biomarkers to help the clinician make the diagnosis and suspect endometrial cancer when there are more to be done. This dissertation aspires to enlighten this field.
title: Heideggers Besinnung auf das Menschenwesen
Creators: name: Raha, Johann
Year: 2008

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit versucht auf die leitende Absicht in der heideg-gerschen Besinnung zu achten, und dem ihr immanenten pädagogischen Kern, und schließt in Querverweisen an jene Themen an, die von gewich-tigen Pädagogen als Anknüpfungspunkte bereits herangezogen worden sind. So hat etwa Helmut Konrad im „Ganzseinkönnen“ des Menschen jenes Element verortet, um das es jedem Bildungsbegriff geht, sofern „das Existenzial des Seinkönnens das Existenzial von Bildung“ schlechtin ist. Egon Schütz wiederum sieht in dem heideggerschen Versuch einer „Rückgründung des Humanismus in die Seinsfrage“ einen letzte große „Reklamation des Menschen als Menschen“ gegen dessen drohende Funk-tionalisierung aus der „Metaphysik der Subjektivität“. Käte Meyer-Drawe beurteilt zwar u.a. Heideggers globalen Blick auf die Geschichte des Denkens problematisch, findet gleichwohl aber Anregungen etwa in Heideggers „Kritik an der Verfügungsgewalt des Denkens über das Sein“. Die vorliegende Arbeit skizziert zunächst in einem ersten Schritt den Denkweg Heideggers bis zu dem Punkt, wo der Gedanke in sein Gefüge eingeschwungen ist. Der Hauptteil der Arbeit legt sodann dieses Gefüge des einzigen Gedankens Heideggers auseinander, indem sie darauf achtet, was in diesem Gefüge den Anfang macht. Der heideggerschen Wendung „Zur Bestimmung der Sache des Denkens“ gemäß, bekundet sich die Maßgabe oder die Bestimmung als jenes, welches sowohl dem Denken, wie auch seiner Sache vorausliegt. Das besagte Gefüge lässt sich also als ein Verhältnis bestimmen, in welchem die Maßgabe dem Denken voraufgeht, dem wiederum seine Sache folgt. Darum widmet sich der Durchgang durch dieses Ganze zunächst der Maßgabe, die selber in sich nach ihrer weltlichen, sodann sprachlichen und letztlich geschichtlichen Bestimmtheit unterschieden wird. Daran anschließendend bekundet sich das heideggersche Denken selbst als ein in sich Unterschiedenes, sofern es einmal als Andenken geschichtlich, sodann als entsagendes Denken weltlich und letztlich als Vordenken sprach-lich begriffen sein möchte. Den abschließenden Terminus bildet sodann das Menschenwesen, welches als das Vorgedachte des sprachlichen Vordenkens selbst zunächst von sprachlicher, sodann von geschichtlicher und letztlich von weltlicher Bestim-mtheit ist. Nach diesem Durchgang durch das Gefüge des heideggerschen Gedankens folgt abschließend eine Schlussbemerkung, die nochmals eigens den päda-gogischen Kern der heideggerschen Besinnung hervorkehrt, weil sie auf eine Unterscheidung des Menschen von sich insistiert. In dieser Sorge um die Menschlichkeit des Menschen steht Heidegger im Einklang mit der „Grund-these der Pädagogik“ (Ballauff).

description: In his ground-breaking work on the habitus Bourdieu (1977) understands practices as the permanent internalization of the social order in the human body. Others have taken this idea and described practices as ‘normatively regulated activities’ (Schmidt, 2014). Our own interests here arise from the fact that during the performance of all of these various activities, which may implicate and draw upon the material environment, the surrounding context, their own capabilities, interests and preferences, people often use supportive devices and technologies that help to enable and support their realization. Where these supportive technologies make up a part of the Internet of Things (IoT) they are usually small, interconnected cyber-physical devices and are typically used in social/collaborative settings. As a consequence, the (re-)appropriation of these new devices and technologies is not only a technical, but also a social process. Within this exploratory paper we focus on the potential of IoT technologies for supporting collaborative appropriation within Communities of Practice (CoP) from a practice-oriented perspective. We outline the vision of an Internet of Practices (IoP). This vision encompasses and addresses a range of phenomena that has been associated with how CoPs evolve and the resonance activities that can arise as specific bodies of practice adapt, by adding integrated support for the documentation of practices and the sharing of relevant representations such that mutual improvements in practice may take place. Based on our vision of the IoP, we outline some directions CSCW research could take regarding the potential of the IoT and new emerging technologies, thereby expanding the scope of CSCW’s areas of interest.

description: To ensure quality in medication management, the electronic medication management system (EMMS) must communicate and collaborate with other IT systems in the hospital, particularly the electronic patient record (EPR). To achieve those integrations is not purely a technical task, and the aim of our paper is to contribute to the development of a socio-technical understanding of integration in health care, and to to conceptualize infrastructures with the help of boundary work and translations. Empirically, we have studied the implementation of a new EMMS in the Northern Norway Regional Health Authority. Our case shows that the integrations are affected by the existing IT systems in the region. Work tasks that had originally been planned for inclusion in the EMMS were shifted to the EPR due to existing functionality. In addition, differences in the contracts with the two vendors of the systems played a role. Most of the patient pathways and treatment plans extend across both the EMMS and the EPR and the boundaries between the two systems are sometimes blurred. To achieve integration based on this is hard. In addition, some integrations lead to additional work for clinicians, because data from one system to another must be translated between the different contexts, and the clinicians have to approve each translation. Integrations include crossing boundaries, which implies translation and negotiation. These concepts thus need to be considered to achieve successful integrations in health care.
title: Dialog im Christentum und im Islam unter besonderer Berücksichtigung sozialethischer Themen

description: Angesichts drängender sozialethischer Fragen nach globaler Gerechtigkeit und Frieden stehen die monotheistischen Religionen vor der Herausforderung, ihren Beitrag zur Beantwortung und Lösung zu leisten. Dazu bedarf es einer Abklärung der Positionen und der Vermittlungen durch Dialoge ebenso, wie des Abbaus oftmals historisch bedingter Vorurteile, damit eine konstruktive Mitgestaltung des Zusammenlebens möglich wird. Das christlich geprägte Europa sieht sich gegenwärtig mit einem erstarkenden Islam konfrontiert, der lebendige religiöse Traditionen mit dem Anspruch verbindet, Europa aktiv mitzugestalten. Beide Religionen, Christentum wie Islam, stehen vor der Alternative: Konkurrenzkampf oder Dialog. Im II. Vatikanischen Konzil hat sich die römisch-katholische Kirche auf den Dialog mit der Welt und den nicht-christlichen Religionen verpflichtet. Auch wichtige Vertreter des Islam pflegen den Dialog und wissen um seine Unumgänglichkeit für eine friedvolle Zukunft. Diese Arbeit möchte zunächst die Grundlagen des Dialogbegriffs der katholischen Kirche und des Islam aufzeigen. Dann werden Chancen wie Schwierigkeiten in der dialogischen Begegnung zwischen den beiden monotheistischen Religionen im Dienst an der Bearbeitung sozialethischer Fragestellungen beleuchtet.
description: In the light of social and ethical questions of global justice and peace the three monotheistic religions are facing the challenge of making their contribution towards answering these questions. Therefore mediation through dialogue is necessary as well as reducing prejudices, which are often conditioned by history, so religions can contribute to society. Nowadays, Europe, which has been strongly shaped by Christianity, is being confronted with the situation of a “new” Islam, which is increasing quantitatively and combines vital religious traditions with the will to shape Europe. Both religions, Christianity and Islam, now have to make a choice between two alternatives: rivalry or dialogue. In the Second Vatican Council, the Roman Catholic Church committed themselves to dialogue with the world and non-Christian religions. On the other side, important representatives of Islam are also concentrating on their engagement in interreligious dialogue and are aware of its relevance for securing a peaceful future. First, this thesis intends to illustrate the fundamental principles of dialogue in the Catholic Church and in Islam. Furthermore, the chances and difficulties in the dialogic encounter between these two monotheistic religions are presented, which constitutes an effort that entails working together on social and ethical issues.

description: Online social networks have made sharing photos and other digital content a common activity. Recently, a range of novel online services and connected devices have expanded the set of “things” to share – ranging from new types of digital content like music preferences and workout data to physical things like household items (“sharing economy”). To understand user needs, concerns and preferences in such emerging sharing domains, we collected 200 responses about participants’ experiences with sharing six categories of “things”: music preferences; travel plans; sports activity; real-world items (e.g., rooms and vehicles); virtual items in online games; and dietary preferences. For each category, we systematically describe what our participants share and with whom. Additionally, we asked 56 “non-sharers” to describe their reasons to refrain from sharing personal content from these categories. Using qualitative analysis methods, we use information from both “sharers” and “non-sharers” to identify privacy concerns that frame content sharing, and we discuss how factors like audience perception and sharing controls should inform the design of newly emerging sharing services.

description: Two of the five Danish regions, covering close to half of the population, are in the process of implementing a new EHR system. One of its sub-systems is a patient portal. The work-in-progress reported here is an exploratory study and a first level of analysis concerned with why, how and with which effects patients start to orient themselves towards this subsystem, and the degree to which this has an effect on the clinicians’ work. The overall approach is a multi-site ethnographic study involving 5 patients and 3 nurses responsible for a rehabilitation program for ischemic heart patients. Data are being collected through artifact and document analysis, and by interviews and observations in patients’ homes and in nurses’ offices over so far 6 months. The analysis is informed by medical phenomenology and by conceptual frameworks developed in earlier projects conducted by the author’s research group. The preliminary findings include that patients and clinicians do see the potentials of the portal, but in order to harvest these potentials we recommend rethinking the functionality and the implementation strategy, including training of patients and clinical staff.

description: Over the past decade, Building Information Modeling (BIM) – an advanced modeling technology and associated set of processes to create, develop, and analyze digital building models – has emerged as one of the most promising approaches for im- proving the performance of building projects. It has been heralded as a ‘digital revolution’ and it is expected to improve collaboration, productivity, and product quality throughout the building life cycle by providing ‘perfect information’ on which to base the design and construction (Crotty 2012). However, little is known about the use of BIM in practice, and it has so far not been studied from a CSCW perspective. In this paper we present prelim- inary findings from a field study of a large hospital construction project in Denmark. The project is in its early phases, so the focus is on the role of BIM as a platform for collabo- ration among client, architects, engineers and future users regarding the conceptual de- sign. Our findings suggest that recurrent reviews of the evolving digital model played a key role in the collaboration. We identified three kinds of design reviews: clash detection, scenario-based reviews and embodied reviews – each focusing on specific aspects of the conceptual design.

description: This paper explores how cooperative identity is produced and preserved within a Hackerspace in Denmark. Specifically, we explore how the cooperative identity emerges conceptually and physically as a ‘DYI-IoT’ entity shaping the activities in the space. We argue that the cooperative identity of the Hackerspace was created through participants’ interests and ideas expressed through their commitment to the space, which turns into productive dependencies demonstrating individuals’ attachments to the space. Our data demonstrates that an exclusive mechanism was inherent in the collaborative dynamics producing the identity of the Hackerspace. While the participants were open and welcoming, the exclusive nature of the cooperative identity emerged in their practices, and was fundamentally about protecting the cooperative identity of the space. Hacking of the physical surroundings serves as affective bonds between the participants, artefacts, and the Hackerspace. People who could not participate in the hacking activities were not able to create these affective bonds, thus failing to contribute to shaping the cooperative identity of the Hackerspace.

description: Caribbean Islands are exposed to hurricanes, the damage from which is projected to intensify due to anthropogenic climate change. The Caribbean region is also highly indebted; and so we focus on the interaction between climate change, hurricanes, and public debt. We investigate what has been the increase in public debt following Caribbean hurricanes, and how has anthropogenic climate change shaped this increase. We show that for the ten most severe storms, the average increase in debt, measured as the difference between post and pre-storm trends, is about 10%. Three years after such a storm, debt levels are 18% higher than what would have been expected otherwise. Based on findings from Extreme Weather Event Attribution (EEA) research, we calculate that the association between a severe hurricane and public debt that is attributable to climate change amounts to an increase of 3.8% of the debt stock relative to the level of debt at the time of the event.
