Predicting Employees' Commitment To and Support for Organisational Change (2009)

Abstract This study aimed to identify factors that predict employees' commitment to and support for organisational change. The three components of Herscovitch and Meyer's (2002) commitment to organisational change model were hypothesised to mediate the relationship between organisational climate and behavioural support for organisational change. Data were collected from a Queensland government department ( N = 342). Analysis of correlations revealed that organisational climate, commitment to change, and behavioural support for change variables were all significantly related. Structural equation modelling demonstrated that affective, normative, and continuance commitment to change were all predictors of behavioural support for organisational change. Positive work climate also contributed directly to the prediction of behavioural support for change over and above the indirect influence through commitment to organisational change, indicating a partial mediation effect. These findings support Herscovitch and Meyer's (2002) three-component model of commitment to organisational change and extend their nomological network by showing the relevance of two types of organisational climate to the core components of the model. Affective commitment to organisational change is a positive influence on employees' behavioural support for change and also reflects healthy aspects of the organisational climate. However, continuance commitment to organisational change is detrimental influence on employees' behavioural support for change and is linked with unhealthy dimensions of the organisational climate.
Voltage-tunable two-color quantum-dot infrared photodetectors (2009)

A two-terminal quantum-dot infrared photodetector with stacked five-period InAs/GaAs and InGaAs-capped InAs/GaAs quantum-dot (QD) structures is investigated. The device has exhibited distinct responses at mid-wavelength and long-wavelength infrared regions under positive and negative biases, respectively. The results suggest that the QD confinement states near the anode side are completely filled, such that selective responses at different wavelength ranges would be observed for the stacked structure under different voltage polarities. Also observed are the similar absorption ratios of the device under different incident light polarizations at the two response regions.

A Sample‐Freezing Drive Shoe for a Wire Line Piston Core Sampler (1996)

Abstract Loss of fluids and samples during retrieval of cores of saturated, noncohesive sediments results in incorrect measures of fluid distributions and an inaccurate measure of the stratigraphic position of the sample. To reduce these errors, we developed a hollow drive shoe that freezes in place the lowest 3 inches (75 mm) of a 1.88‐inch‐diameter (48 mm), 5‐foot‐long (1.5 m) sediment sample taken using a commercial wire line piston core smapler. The end of the core is frozen by piping liquid carbon dioxide at ambient temperature through a steel tube from a bottle at the land surface to the drive shoe where it evaporates and expands, cooling the interior surface of the shoe to about ‐ 109°F (‐ 78°C). Freezing a core end takes about 10 minutes. The device was used to collect samples for a study of oil‐water‐air distributions, and for studies of water chemistry and microbial activity in unconsolidated sediments at the site of an oil spill near Bemidji, Minnesota. Before freezing was employed, samples of sandy sediments from near the water table sometimes flowed out of the core barrel as the sampler was withdrawn. Freezing the bottom of the core allowed for the retention of all material that entered the core barrel and lessened the redistribution of fluids within the core. The device is useful in the unsaturated and shallow saturated zones, but does not freeze cores well at depths greater than about 20 feet (6 m) below water, possibly because the feed tube plugs with dry ice with increased exhaust back‐pressure, or because sediment enters the annulus between the core barrel and the core barrel liner and blocks the exhaust.
Single-Chamber Solid Oxide Fuel Cell with Micropatterned Interdigitated Electrodes (2006)

A single-chamber solid oxide fuel cell (SC-SOFC) with micropatterned electrodes on the electrolyte has been fabricated by a microfluidic lithography technique. Microchannels formed by contacting the polydimethylsiloxane mold with a polished substrate of YSZ disk were filled with the well-dispersed suspensions of the cathode and the anode. The suspensions solidified upon solvent evaporation through the mold, resulting in the SC-SOFC with interdigitated micropatterned electrodes in an area of in which each electrode had line width with anode-to-cathode distances of . characteristics of the SC-SOFC were analyzed using a dc source meter.

Microbiological Safety of Chicken Litter or Chicken Litter-Based Organic Fertilizers: A Review (2014)

Chicken litter or chicken litter-based organic fertilizers are usually recycled into the soil to improve the structure and fertility of agricultural land. As an important source of nutrients for crop production, chicken litter may also contain a variety of human pathogens that can threaten humans who consume the contaminated food or water. Composting can inactivate pathogens while creating a soil amendment beneficial for application to arable agricultural land. Some foodborne pathogens may have the potential to survive for long periods of time in raw chicken litter or its composted products after land application, and a small population of pathogenic cells may even regrow to high levels when the conditions are favorable for growth. Thermal processing is a good choice for inactivating pathogens in chicken litter or chicken litter-based organic fertilizers prior to land application. However, some populations may become acclimatized to a hostile environment during build-up or composting and develop heat resistance through cross-protection during subsequent high temperature treatment. Therefore, this paper reviews currently available information on the microbiological safety of chicken litter or chicken litter-based organic fertilizers, and discusses about further research on developing novel and effective disinfection techniques, including physical, chemical, and biological treatments, as an alternative to current methods.

본 논문은 60 GHz 채널을 사용하는 무선장치들이 멀티홉 애드혹 네트워킹의 형태로 배치되어 있을 때에 일부 무선 장치들에서 발생한 비디오 트래픽을 에너지 효율적이며 버퍼가 안정적인 형태로 전달하는 동적/추계적 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 모든 장치가 정보를 공유할 필요 없이 분산적으로 운영이 되기 때문에 중앙에서 알고리즘을 운영하는 제어장치가 필요 없다. 제안하는 알고리즘에 대한 성능은 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증되었다. This paper proposes a stochastic/dynamic routing protocol which aims the minimization of the summation of time average expected power expenditure with buffer stability in mobile ad-hoc 60 GHz wireless networks. By using 60 GHz RF, the wireless devices can transmit/receive 1080p HD video signals without compression. In addition, our algorithm works without centralized controller, so that the distributed operation is available. The novelty of the proposed algorithm was also verified by simulations.

Impact of season on seminal characteristics and endocrine status of adult free-ranging African buffalo ( <i>Syncerus caffer</i> ) (1991)

Summary. Pituitary, gonadal and adrenal activity were compared in free-living, adult African buffalo bulls during the breeding and nonbreeding seasons. Frequent blood samples were collected for 2 h from anaesthetized bulls treated intravenously with saline, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH, 200 μg), human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG, 10 000 i.u.) or adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH, 1·5 mg). Electroejaculates also were collected from anaesthetized bulls during the breeding and nonbreeding seasons. Pretreatment testosterone concentrations among bulls varied more during the breeding (0·17–23·0 ng/ml) than the nonbreeding (0·15–2·21 ng/ml) season. The variation within the breeding season was attributed to 8 of 25 bulls producing higher (P &lt; 0·05) serum testosterone (High-T; 16·28 ± 2·03 ng/ml) and testicular LH receptor (1·53 ± 0·22 fmol/mg testis) concentrations compared with their seasonal counterparts (Low-T; 0·95 ± 0·26 ng/ml; 0·38 ± 0·04 fmol/mg) or with all bulls during the nonbreeding season (0·90 ± 0·27 ng/ml; 0·31 ± 0·04 fmol/mg). The magnitude of GnRH- and hCG-induced increases in serum testosterone was similar (P &gt; 0·05) between Low-T bulls and bulls during the nonbreeding season. In the High-T animals treated with GnRH or hCG, serum testosterone did not increase, suggesting that secretion was already maximal. Peak serum LH concentrations after GnRH were greater (P &lt; 0·05) in bulls during the nonbreeding than the breeding season; FSH responses were similar (P &gt; 0·05). ACTH treatment did not increase serum cortisol concentrations above the 2-fold increase measured in bulls treated with saline, hCG and GnRH (P &gt; 0·05). Ejaculate volume, sperm motility and the proportion of morphologically normal spermatozoa were greater (P &lt; 0·05) during the breeding than in the nonbreeding season, but the total number of spermatozoa/ejaculate was similar (P &gt; 0·05). We suggest that season effects endocrine function and seminal quality in free-living, male African buffalo. During the breeding season some, but not all, adult bulls produce high circulating concentrations of testosterone associated with increased testicular LH receptor binding. These findings suggest that this species may experience selective gonadal suppression, perhaps related to differences in social status.

Differential privacy data Aggregation Optimizing Method and application to data visualization (2014)

This article explores the challenges in data privacy within the big data era with specific focus on differential privacy of social media data and its geospatial realization within a Cloud-based research environment. By using differential privacy method, this paper achieves the distortion of the data by adding noise to protect data privacy. Furthermore, this article presents the IDP k-means Aggregation Optimizing Method to decrease the overlap and superposition of massive data visualization. Finally this paper combines IDP k-means Aggregation Optimizing Method with differential privacy method to protect data privacy. The outcome of this research is a set of underpinning formal models of differential privacy that reflect the geospatial tools challenges faced with location-based information, and the implementation of a suite of Cloud-based tools illustrating how these tools support an extensive range of data privacy demands.
CLAMP/Spef1 regulates planar cell polarity signaling and asymmetric microtubule accumulation in the <i>Xenopus</i> ciliated epithelia (2018)

Most epithelial cells polarize along the axis of the tissue, a feature known as planar cell polarity (PCP). The initiation of PCP requires cell-cell signaling via the noncanonical Wnt/PCP pathway. Additionally, changes in the cytoskeleton both facilitate and reflect this polarity. We have identified CLAMP/Spef1 as a novel regulator of PCP signaling. In addition to decorating microtubules (MTs) and the ciliary rootlet, a pool of CLAMP localizes at the apical cell cortex. Depletion of CLAMP leads to the loss of PCP protein asymmetry, defects in cilia polarity, and defects in the angle of cell division. Additionally, depletion of CLAMP leads to a loss of the atypical cadherin-like molecule Celrs2, suggesting that CLAMP facilitates the stabilization of junctional interactions responsible for proper PCP protein localization. Depletion of CLAMP also affects the polarized organization of MTs. We hypothesize that CLAMP facilitates the establishment of cell polarity and promotes the asymmetric accumulation of MTs downstream of the establishment of proper PCP.

GGAP2/PIKE-A Directly Activates Both the Akt and Nuclear Factor-κB Pathways and Promotes Prostate Cancer Progression (2009)

GGAP2/PIKE-A is a GTP-binding protein that can enhance Akt activity. Increased activation of the AKT and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) pathways have been identified as critical steps in cancer initiation and progression in a variety of human cancers. We have found significantly increased expression GGAP2 in the majority of human prostate cancers and GGAP2 expression increases Akt activation in prostate cancer cells. Thus, increased GGAP2 expression is a common mechanism for enhancing the activity of the Akt pathway in prostate cancers. In addition, we have found that activated Akt can bind and phosphorylate GGAP2 at serine 629, which enhances GTP binding by GGAP2. Phosphorylated GGAP2 can bind the p50 subunit of NF-kappaB and enhances NF-kappaB transcriptional activity. When expressed in prostate cancer cells, GGAP2 enhances proliferation, foci formation, and tumor progression in vivo. Thus, increased GGAP2 expression, which is present in three quarters of human prostate cancers, can activate two critical pathways that have been linked to prostate cancer initiation and progression.
