Tapping into the wearable device revolution in the work environment: a systematic review (2018)

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to expand current knowledge about the recent trend of wearable technology to assess both its potential in the work environment and the challenges concerning the utilisation of wearables in the workplace. Design/methodology/approach After establishing exclusion and inclusion criteria, an independent systematic search of the ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect and Web of Science databases for relevant studies was performed. Out of a total of 359 articles, 34 met the selection criteria. Findings This review identifies 23 categories of wearable devices. Further categorisation of the devices based on their utilisation shows they can be used in the work environment for activities including monitoring, augmenting, assisting, delivering and tracking. The review reveals that wearable technology has the potential to increase work efficiency among employees, improve workers’ physical well-being and reduce work-related injuries. However, the review also reveals that technological, social, policy and economic challenges related to the use of wearable devices remain. Research limitations/implications Many studies have investigated the benefits of wearable devices for personal use, but information about the use of wearables in the work environment is limited. Further research is required in the fields of technology, social challenges, organisation strategies, policies and economics to enhance the adoption rate of wearable devices in work environments. Originality/value Previous studies indicate that occupational stress and injuries are detrimental to employees’ health; this paper analyses the use of wearable devices as an intervention method to monitor or prevent these problems. Introducing a categorisation framework during implementation may help identify which types of device categories are suitable and could be beneficial for specific utilisation purposes, facilitating the adoption of wearable devices in the workplace.
Symptomatic secondary Sjögren's syndrome in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Relation to anti-SS-A and anti-SS-B autoantibodies. (1986)

The prevalence of symptomatic secondary Sjögren's syndrome in 66 patients with SLE recruited from a defined population in southern Sweden was 59%. In 26 patients (39%) the symptoms were mild and variable, related to disease activity, while in a smaller group (20%) the symptoms appeared to be constant. The latter patients had an increased frequency of thyroid disease and autoantibodies to SS-A. The patients in this group were older, but did not seem to differ in regard to other disease manifestations.
A dose-finding study of azithromycin in the treatment of acne vulgaris. (2007)

This open, multicenter, comparative, randomized study included 120 subjects with papulopustular stage of acne vulgaris. Subjects were randomized to one of the three treatment groups (A, total dose 4.5 g of azithromycin in 7 weeks; B, total dose 6.0 g in 10 weeks; and C, total dose 7.5 g in 13 weeks). The aim was to identify the optimum azithromycin dose in the treatment of acne vulgaris through monitoring the efficacy and safety of three dosage regimens. Clinical efficacy was assessed upon completion of study therapy and six months of therapy initiation. Post-therapeutic efficacy assessment was available in 104 subjects. The difference between three treatment groups was most pronounced in the "cure" category (36.11% in group A, 58.82% in group B and 55.88% in group C) and "failure" category (8.33% in group A, and no failures in groups B and C). Follow up efficacy assessment was available in 87 subjects. The group percentage of "cure" was lower and group percentage of "treatment failure" higher in group A than in groups B and C. Azithromycin in a total dose of 6.0 g in 10 weeks seems to be a promising agent in the treatment of papulopustular acne vulgaris with few side effects and good patient compliance.
Prosodylab-aligner: A tool for forced alignment of laboratory speech (2011)

The Penn Forced Aligner automates the alignment process using the Hidden Markov Model Toolkit (HTK). The core of Prosodylab-Aligner is align. py, a script which performs acoustic model training and alignment. This script automates calls to HTK and SoX, an open-source command-line tool which is capable of resampling audio. The included README file provides instructions for installing HTK and SoX on Linux and Mac OS X, and can also be run on Windows. During training, the model is initialized with flat-start monophones, which are then submitted to a single round of model estimation. Then, a tied-state 'small pause' model is inserted and used in a second round of estimation. The data is then aligned once to choose the most likely pronunciation of all homonyms. Web audio is downloaded from Ramp, a company which indexes radio and television programming, including NBC, PBS, Fox and CBS Radio, and processed using standard UNIX tools.
A model for electronic documents (1989)

A model for electronic documents is proposed. This model has two components: a directed acyclic graph structure and a set of constraints. These two components are used to describe the relationships among the data of documents. This model is more general than models previously proposed.
Adamantane based molecular glass resist for 193 nm lithography (2006)

As the feature dimensions decreases there are several issues must be addressed to implement the corresponding technology in high volume production. Line width roughness (LWR) and line edge roughness (LER) are the most important technological issue arises as the feature dimension decreases. In order to improve both of LWR and LER, we have developed novel low molecular weight glass resists as high performance resist materials. These molecular glass resists are adamantane derivatives and are highly transparent at 193 nm. We have prepared series of new molecular glass resists based on adamantane core carrying acetal and ester protecting groups. Particularly, adamantane core derivatives of tripod structure were investigated in detail. Several compositions of them showed glass transition temperatures (Tg) above 120 <sup>o</sup>C. Lithographic evaluation confirmed their high sensitivity at 254 nm and e-beam exposure. It also resolved feature size as small as 200 nm line/space when it evaluated using e-beam lithography. These new molecular glass resists also have high plasma-etch resistance.
Distinct ligand preferences of Src homology 3 domains from Src, Yes, Abl, Cortactin, p53bp2, PLCgamma, Crk, and Grb2. (2020)

Src homology 3 (SH3) domains are conserved protein modules 50-70 amino acids long found in a variety of proteins with important roles in signal transduction. These domains have been shown to mediate protein-protein interactions by binding short proline-rich regions in ligand proteins. However, the ligand preferences of most SH3 domains and the role of these preferences in regulating SH3-mediated protein-protein interactions remain poorly defined. We have used a phage-displayed library of peptides of the form X6PXXPX6 to identify ligands for eight different SH3 domains. Using this approach, we have determined that each SH3 domain prefers peptide ligands with distinct sequence characteristics. Specifically, we have found that the Src SH3 domain selects peptides sharing the consensus motif LXXRPLPXpsiP, whereas Yes SH3 selects psiXXRPLPXLP, Abl SH3 selects PPXthetaXPPPpsiP, Cortactin SH3 selects +PPpsiPXKPXWL, p53bp2 SH3 selects RPXpsiPpsiR+SXP, PLCgamma SH3 selects PPVPPRPXXTL, Crk N-terminal SH3 selects psiPpsiLPpsiK, and Grb2 N-terminal SH3 selects +thetaDXPLPXLP (where psi, theta, and + represent aliphatic, aromatic, and basic residues, respectively). Furthermore, we have compared the binding of phage expressing peptides related to each consensus motif to a panel of 12 SH3 domains. Results from these experiments support the ligand preferences identified in the peptide library screen and evince the ability of SH3 domains to discern subtle differences in the primary structure of potential ligands. Finally, we have found that most known SH3-binding proteins contain proline-rich regions conforming to the ligand preferences of their respective SH3 targets.
High performance Schottky diodes based on indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (2016)

Indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (IGZO) Schottky diodes exhibit excellent performance in comparison with conventional devices used in future flexible high frequency electronics. In this work, a high performance Pt IGZO Schottky diode was presented by using a new fabrication process. An argon/oxygen mixture gas was introduced during the deposition of the Pt layer to reduce the oxygen deficiency at the Schottky interface. The diode showed a high barrier height of 0.92 eV and a low ideality factor of 1.36 from the current–voltage characteristics. Even the radius of the active area was 0.1 mm, and the diode showed a cut-off frequency of 6 MHz in the rectifier circuit. Using the diode as a demodulator, a potential application was also demonstrated in this work.
Evidence for a contact between glutamine-18 of lac repressor and base pair 7 of lac operator. (1986)

Glutamine-18 of the lac repressor (lacR) has been substituted by glycine, by serine, and by leucine. The specificities of wild-type lacR and of the three substituted lacR variants have been analyzed with respect to base pairs 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 of the lac operator (lacO). The data indicate that [Gly18]lacR, [Ser18]lacR, and [Leu18]lacR lose the ability to distinguish between the O+ base pair G . C and the Oc base pairs T . A and A . T at position 7 of lacO (KdOc/KdO+ approximately equal to 1). In contrast, the three substituted variants retain the ability to discriminate O+ from Oc at each other position, by factors of 9 to 37. Therefore, I propose that glutamine-18 contacts base pair 7 of lacO. These data suggest that the interaction between the helix-turn-helix motif and DNA may be very similar or identical in lacR and the catabolite gene activator protein.
The Effects of Weld Geometry and Glass-Fiber Orientation on the Mechanical Performance of Joints – Part I: Weld Design Issues (2004)

The mechanical performance of injection molded glass-fiber reinforced [thermo]-plastic components is anisotropic and depends on the fiber orientation and distribution. The purpose of this comprehensive analysis is to show the relationship between short-fiber orientation at the prewelded bead and wall areas, and the mechanical performance of welded butt-joints that have various geometry and thickness, namely ‘‘straight’’ and ‘‘T-type’’ welds. Findings on the mechanical performance of these two different types of butt-joints by the design and geometry butt-joints will help designers and technologists with material selection, welding processing, and design optimization. In a subsequent paper (Part II)1, we related these findings to the kinetics of glass-fiber reorientation and micro-structural changes and how they influence part and weld design.
Correction: Transcriptome Analysis of the Zebrafish Model of Diamond-Blackfan Anemia from RPS19 Deficiency via p53-Dependent and -Independent Pathways (2013)

Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare inherited bone marrow failure syndrome that is characterized by pure red-cell aplasia and associated physical deformities. It has been proven that defects of ribosomal proteins can lead to this disease and that RPS19 is the most frequently mutated gene in DBA patients. Previous studies suggest that p53-dependent genes and pathways play important roles in RPS19-deficient embryos. However, whether there are other vital factors linked to DBA has not been fully clarified. In this study, we compared the whole genome RNA-Seq data of zebrafish embryos injected with RPS19 morpholino (RPS19 MO), RPS19 and p53 morpholino simultaneously (RPS19+p53 MO) and control morpholino (control). We found that genes enriched in the functions of hematological systems, nervous system development and skeletal and muscular disorders had significant differential expression in RPS19 MO embryos compared with controls. Coinhibition of p53 partially alleviates the abnormalities for RPS19-deficient embryos. However, the hematopoietic genes, which were down-regulated significantly in RPS19 MO embryos, were not completely recovered by the co-inhibition of p53. Furthermore, we identified the genome-wide p53-dependent and -independent genes and pathways. These results indicate that not only p53 family members but also other factors have important impacts on RPS19-deficient embryos. The detection of potential pathogenic genes and pathways provides us a new paradigm for future research on DBA, which is a systematic and complex hereditary disease.

Identification of a calcium binding site in the protease domain of human blood coagulation factor VII: evidence for its role in factor VII - tissue factor interaction (1993)

Previous studies have identified a putative calcium binding site involving two glutamic acid residues located in the protease domain of coagulation factor IX. Amino acid sequence homology considerations suggest that factor VII (FVII) possesses a similar site involving glutamic acid residues 210 and 220. In the present study, we have constructed site-specific mutants of human factor VII in which Glu-220 has been replaced with either a lysine (E220K FVII) or an alanine (E220A FVII). These mutants were indistinguishable from wild-type factor VII by SDS-PAGE but only possessed 0.1% the coagulant activity of factor VII. Incubation of E220K/E220A FVII with factor Xa resulted in a slower than normal activation rate which eventually yielded a two-chain factor VIIa molecule possessing a coagulant activity of approximately 10% that of wild-type rFVIIa. Amidolytic activity measurements indicated that E220K/E220A FVIIa, unlike wild-type factor VIIa, possessed no measurable amidolytic activity toward the chromogenic substrate S-2288, even at high CaCl2 concentrations. Addition of tissue factor apoprotein, however, induced the amidolytic activity of the mutant molecule to a level 30% of that observed for wild-type factor VIIa. This tissue factor dependent enhancement of E220K/E220A FVIIa amidolytic activity was calcium dependent and required a CaCl2 concentration in excess of 5 mM for maximal rate enhancement. This was in sharp contrast to wild-type factor VIIa which required CaCl2 levels of 0.5 mM for maximal enhancement of tissue factor dependent amidolytic activity. Competition binding experiments suggest that the decrease in amidolytic and coagulant activity observed in the factor VII mutants is a direct result of impaired tissue factor binding.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
The invention of operational risk (2003)

Until the ‘Basel 2 ’ reforms to banking supervision, operational risk was largely a residual category for risks and uncertainties which were difficult to quantify, insure and manage in traditional ways. This paper examines the rapid emergence of operational risk from this low epistemic status to its institutionalisation as a key component of global banking regulation. However, the meaning and implications of the Basel proposals have been fiercely contested by international banks and three key domains of policy controversy have been, and remain, particularly visible: definitional issues, data collection and the limits of quantification. Tensions in these three areas are discussed and reveal the significance of operational risk as a meeting point for diverse concerns and interests, and as a potential reinvention of a management knowledge hybrid between auditing and finance. The paper draws attention to the ironies and contradictions of this operational risk programme, which is part of a visionary project to extend ‘enforced self-regulation ’ deep into the operations of banking, combining advanced technical modelling ideas on the one hand and softer corporate governance thinking on the other. The Basel 2 proposals demonstrate the policy effectiveness of ‘operational risk ’ as an agenda-forming category for diverse communities of interest, and reinforces the relevance of a political economy of regulation which emphasizes knowledge production by multiple and competing organizational agents. 1
Coherent differential absorption lidar measurements of CO_2 (2004)

A differential absorption lidar has been built to measure CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. The transmitter is a pulsed single-frequency Ho:Tm:YLF laser at a 2.05-microm wavelength. A coherent heterodyne receiver was used to achieve sensitive detection, with the additional capability for wind profiling by a Doppler technique. Signal processing includes an algorithm for power measurement of a heterodyne signal. Results show a precision of the CO2 concentration measurement of 1%-2% 1sigma standard deviation over column lengths ranging from 1.2 to 2.8 km by an average of 1000 pulse pairs. A preliminary assessment of instrument sensitivity was made with an 8-h-long measurement set, along with correlative measurements with an in situ sensor, to determine that a CO2 trend could be detected.
A Model-Driven Approach to Service Orchestration (2008)

Software systems based on Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs) promise high flexibility, improved maintainability, and simple re-use of functionality. A variety of languages and standards have emerged for working with SOA artifacts; however, service computing still lacks an effective and intuitive model-driven approach starting from models written in an established modeling language like UML and, in the end, generating comprehensive executable code. In this paper, we present a conservative extension to the UML2 for modeling service orchestrations at a high level of abstraction, and a fully automatic approach for transforming these orchestrations down to the well known Web Service standard BPEL.
Synthesis of Amphiphilic Conjugated Diblock Oligomers as Molecular Diodes (2002)

A diodelike rectifying effect was observed in Langmuir–Blodgett monolayers of a p-n junction molecule, the amphiphilic π-conjugated diblock oligomer shown. A reference molecule without the p-n junction feature shows nonrectifying behavior.

Ion trap mass spectrometry as detector for capillary electrochromatography of peptides: Possibilities and limitations (2001)

Abstract Capillary electrochromatography has been coupled to an ion trap mass spectrometer via a sheath flow electrospray interface. Peptide analysis was performed on 25 cm columns packed with C 18 ‐bonded silica particles, and very fast separations were obtained. Full mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detection were evaluated in terms of sensitivity and scanning speed. The separation of seven selected peptides and their detection by MS/MS in selected reaction monitoring mode was demonstrated. The performance of this sheath flow interface also was compared with the previously reported sheathless interface. Despite the loss in sensitivity (20–40‐fold), the sheath flow interface was shown to be superior in terms of ruggedness, and allowed the use of higher electric fields to achieve faster analysis times. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

<title>Development and calibration of a submillimeter three-component force sensor</title> (1997)

A sub-millimeter three-component force sensor is developed using silicon microfabrication technology. A polysilicon cross-beam, 300 micrometer by 300 micrometer, with twelve piezoresistive strain gauges integrated on it, is the elastic element of the sensor. The strains detected by the strain gauges are measures of the three orthogonal components of the force applied at the center of the cross-beam. For calibration purposes, electromagnetic forces are generated on an aluminum cross-beam that is suspended over the sensor structure. A 10 (mu) N resolution is obtained for each of the three force components.
Preparation and Characterization of Open-ended WS_2 Nanotubes (2003)

The ballmilled (NH4)2WS4 precursor was heated to decompose in H2 and thiophene (C4H4S) atmosphere at 400 ℃. The instrumental analyses of powder Xray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), highresolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and BrunauerEmmettTeller (BET) nitrogen sorption were used to characterize the products. The results show that highpurity multiwalled WS2 nanotubes with openended tips were achieved. The hollow WS2 nanotubes were 5 μm long with the inner diameter of approximately 15 nm, the outer diameter of about 30 nm, and the interlayer spacing of 0.62 nm. The insideout growth mechanism for obtaining WS2 nanotubes was proposed.
