Context aware self-optimisation scheduling in internet of things

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The internet of things (IoT) consists of systems that are highly dynamic, homogenous and heterogeneous. These systems aspects bring in the automaticity resources management and scheduling that need to be addressed both at the design and runtime stage of systems development for a middleware. This paper looks at building support for middleware core components with self-optimisation and reconfiguration capabilities through the use of the exact match priority (EMP) algorithm to implement autonomic task scheduling of core components. The algorithm executes the scheduling process using dependent variables, context management tasks, number of configuration for the core components and number of components to minimise the waiting time for the reconfiguration of the system structures. The system supports the context-aware middleware in managing reconfigurable core components in an IoT environment. The experimental model indicates that autonomic task scheduling using EMP at the design stage of systems is important to achieve self-management.
Mechanical weed control of sugar beet.

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

This paper presents operating evaluation of a new generation hoe while hoeing of weeds and fertilizing of urea and ammonium nitrate solution in sugar beet production conditions. The research was carried out for the two control systems of hoes in operation: manual and automatic. Manual control of hoes, took place with a lever. The lever was on the control panel. Operator was sitting on the seat attached to the frame hoe. Automatic control of hoe was performed using electro-hydraulic control system developed by the Agronomic. Average effective field capacity of Agronomic hoe, during the two-year study, while working with manual control was 1.6 ha·h and using capacity was 0.86 ha·h. While working with automatic control, average effective field capacity during the study was 3.5 ha·h and using capacity was 1.86 ha·h. The cost of mechanical cultivation in sugar beet for one agricultural chemistry operation, for using manual control were about 131 z ·ha, and for automatic control were about 67 z ·ha.
Effort-Reward Imbalance and Passion Exploitation: A Narrative Review and a New Perspective

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

This paper provides a narrative review of previous research on effort-reward imbalance and passion exploitation, and provides a perspective for future research. Previous research has shown that ERI can cause work stress, negative economic behavior such as job turnover, and illnesses such as metabolic syndrome. Previous research also claims that loyal and generous people, as well as young people and women, are more likely to be targets of passion exploitation. However, there are unresolved issues in previous research, such as (i) the mechanism by which effort-reward imbalance leads to stress and illness, (ii) there is a lack of research on what types of jobs are more likely to experience imbalance, and (iii) there is a lack of research on what level of imbalance is acceptable, and therefore further research is required. To this end, this study recommends addressing these challenges through the integration of ERI and passion exploitation theory.

Writing Memory with Our Bodies: Explorations in Student-Devised Theatre

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In Autumn Semester 2013, I gathered five undergraduate students together to make a devised theatre project in order to study the process for my graduate thesis. Devised Theatre is a method of creating a play with no pre-written script: to improvise and create with a group of people using each performer’s skills to the collective advantage. These students had not worked in this manner before, and I was curious to see if a successful performance could come out of this working method even with no prior experience. All of these students had only received traditional training; using plays with pre-written scripts to make meaning on stage. Over the course of eight weeks, all five students came together as a group and successfully created a play out of their individual memories; re-embodied through physical improvisations into a collaboratively created play. This devised theatre piece, named Memory Play, was successfully performed for an audience on Monday, December 9 th 2013. During the creation period, I documented and facilitated our meetings and rehearsals, introducing or discussing methods of physical improvisation and devised theatre dramaturgy designed to free the individual’s creative impulses and guide each performer/creator’s vision into a whole. As a group, we discovered simple techniques of story telling through our bodies, which we then used in various ways to bring context and dimension to our concepts. As our work progressed, I found that the remarkable aspect of this collaboration is the scope to which these methods can be applied; my research into these techniques has uncovered similar methods in various artistic and community-oriented uses across the globe. With this in mind, I believe the methods specifically created and used by my team can also be used to help students of all ages make theatre; opening opportunities for expression and empowering individual voices in our youth communities. Such techniques can also assist non-actors with making public performances about community issues; a method of play making that is known as “Applied Theatre.” My presentation will outline the concepts and techniques that create devised and applied theatre performances in general and this performance in particular, and present the methods our group used to create the trust and skill-sharing required in order to make a play through the body in the moment rather than write a script on a page beforehand. My presentation will also distinguish devised performance from what is recognized as dance, and elucidate how a body-oriented approach to “writing” theatre can enfranchise the performer and enrich the experience of a play for an audience. My aim in presenting this subject matter through a mixture of pre-written research and demonstrated performance technique is to engage my conference audience in the same fashion as devised theatre, thus providing those attending with new ideas of how live performances can be made, and what they can be made from.
Warum der Freihandel fertig hat

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract The article presents central findings from our book “Free Trade Is Finished,“ which discusses the trade-off between security and economic policy objectives that has become apparent in recent years. We analytically derive which goods are to be classified as “critical” and formulate three criteria for this: no substitutability in the short term; immediate relevance for consumption; forced rationing in the event of a crisis or the existence of external effects. If these criteria are met, state interventions such as concentration tariffs or capacity markets can solve the procurement problem. In terms of game theory, trade wars can also be avoided by understanding foreign dependencies as a potential weapon in such disputes.
The effects of modulating contrast in verbal irony as a cue for giftedness

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Abstract This study adds to the existing literature on the ability to understand irony of typically developing versus gifted students (aged 12–15). In addition to the canonical condition of polarized statements applied to oppositely polarized situations, we also considered the case of intermediate statements and situations. The results showed a significant difference between the two groups of participants. Both groups recognized an ironic interpretation in the more usual condition of a polarized statement applied to a clearly oppositely polarized situation and they also grasped the idea that the bigger the contrast, the more ironic the message. However, gifted students demonstrated greater mastery, with regard to both polarized and intermediate statements. They also demonstrated greater ability compared with their non-gifted peers in the task which required them to explain the “rule” underlying the conditions which applied to the comments they had judged as ironic and to then produce ironic stories demonstrating the specificity of irony (not to be confused with generic humor).
Taylor jellyfish search algorithm enabled feature selection and deep learning for big data classification using mapreduce framework

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Nowadays, the increasing growth of technology contributes various organisations to storing a huge amount of records using web servers in the form of big data. The big database possesses a vast amount of relevant and irrelevant features, and the less significant features are difficult to remove which makes the process time-consuming and more complex. Hence, this paper proposes an optimisation algorithm, named the Taylor Jellyfish Search Optimisation (TaylorJSO) for selecting the relevant features. Here, an optimisation-based deep learning approach called Taylor Jellyfish Search Optimisation-Deep Maxout Network (TaylorJSO-DMN) is introduced to classify big data more effectively by selecting optimal features. In this model, the input database is preprocessed using quantile normalisation and uses the oversampling of imbalanced classes for data augmentation. In the MapReduce framework, the selection of optimal features is performed in the mapper phase, whereas in the reducer phase, the DMN is used for the classification of big data. The DMN is trained using the introduced TaylorJSO algorithm to improve the classification performance of big data classification. Moreover, the TaylorJSO-DMN model attained greater performance with a maximum of 92.5% accuracy, 91.6% sensitivity, and 92.9% specificity than other traditional approaches.
Human salivary gustin is a potent activator of calmodulin-dependent brain phosphodiesterase.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Human salivary gustin stimulated activity of brain calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (cAMP PDEase; 3',5'-cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase, EC 3.1.4.17) in a dose-dependent manner in the absence of calmodulin. At physiological levels found in human saliva, gustin activated cAMP PDEase 5- to 6-fold. Activation of PDEase occurred with as little as 500 ng of gustin. Comparative sensitivity of activation of PDEase by gustin was intermediate between calmodulin and lysophosphatidylcholine with maximal activation and half-maximal activation (indicated in parentheses) at 3 X 10(-8) M (4.3 X 10(-9) M), 3.4 X 10(-6) M (3.4 X 10(-7) M), and 2.5 X 10(-3) M (4.0 X 10(-5) M) for calmodulin, gustin, and lysophosphatidylcholine, respectively. No other major salivary protein activated PDEase. Anticalmodulin antibody completely inhibited calmodulin-activated cAMP PDEase activity, but the antibody had no effect on gustin-activated cAMP PDEase activity. A sensitive calmodulin RIA indicated that no calmodulin was detected in any gustin preparation that activated cAMP PDEase. Both gustin and calmodulin rendered cAMP PDEase thermally labile to a similar extent and increased Vmax without affecting the apparent Km for the substrate cAMP. Activation by gustin and calmodulin was unaffected by lubrol-PX, trypsin inhibitor, pepstatin A, or leupeptin. In the presence of 1 mM EGTA, gustin activated cAMP PDE 5- to 6-fold, but the activating ability was completely lost after gustin was heated at 100 degrees C for 5 min. In contrast, calmodulin lost all activating ability in the presence of 1 mM EGTA, whereas heating calmodulin at 100 degrees C for 5 min did not affect its activation of cAMP PDEase. Lysophosphatidylcholine-activation of cAMP PDEase, like gustin activation, was unaffected by EGTA, but lysophosphatidylcholine-activation of cAMP PDEase, like calmodulin activation, was unaffected by heating at 100 degrees C for 5 min.
A Method for the Exploratory Analysis of Airline Networks

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

The airline industry in the United States has experienced significant changes in the spatial configuration of networks since the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. Attempts have been made to study the structure of the hub-and-spoke network in the airline industry, but no efficient methodology has been available. This paper describes an exploratory approach to analyzing the spatial configuration of airline networks. Flight frequencies and numbers of passengers from published schedules of six U.S. domestic airlines (American, Continental, Delta, Northwest, United, and USAir) are used in this study. The analytic components in the exploratory system include the examination of network connectivity and network autocorrelation in a dynamic mapping environment. The results of the analyses show both the overall spatial patterns of airline networks and the hierarchical hubbing structures.
Cytotoxic Activity and Composition of Petroleum Ether Extract from Magydaris tomentosa (Desf.) W. D. J. Koch (Apiaceae)

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

The petroleum ether extract of Magydaris tomentosa flowers (Desf.) W. D. J. Koch has been analyzed by GC-MS. It is mainly constituted by furanocoumarins such as xanthotoxin, xanthotoxol, isopimpinellin, and bergaptene. Other coumarins such as 7-methoxy-8-(2-formyl-2-methylpropyl) coumarin and osthole also occurred. The antiproliferative activity of Magydaris tomentosa flower extract has been evaluated in vitro on murine monocye/macrophages (J774A.1), human melanoma (A375) and human breast cancer (MCF-7) tumor cell lines, showing a major activity against the latter.
Development and Testing of V-8 Electromagnetic Engine

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The electromagnetic engine is similar to the conventional internal combustion engines that are commonly utilized to meet daily demands. With the growing population, there are many chances that non-renewable resources may be depleted in the near future. As a result, those resources have been depleted, and pollution has increased. As a result, it's critical to create an engine that can function with a different alternative or source. Internal combustion engines use fossil fuels, which are inefficient since they emit a lot of pollution and are nonrenewable energy sources. The construction of an electromagnetic engine can address all of these concerns. The magnetic qualities of repulsion and attraction are used to operate the electromagnetic engine. The connecting rod, piston, crankshaft, and other components of a classic internal combustion engine are included in this system. This project's purpose is to develop and build an electromagnetic engine that can power an unmanned aerial vehicle's propeller. The engine has been tested for voltage ranges from 12 V to 24 V. Force, torque, and efficiency have been calculated. Airspeed behind the propeller and RPM have been measured using a pitot-static probe and a tachometer, respectively.
Αspectual adverbs of quantification in Modern Greek

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

'Adverbs of frequency' is a term used to refer to a rather heterogeneous group of adverbials, whose role is to quantify the event denoted by the verb predicate. In Modern Greek, frequency adverbials are licensed in certain aspectual environ­ments. Despite this similarity, however, they also display differences with re­spect to their semantic properties. In this study I set out to explore the feature make-up of aspectual quantifiers and of the functional category of Aspect, re­sponsible for licensing them. The semantic behaviour of three specific adverbs will be investigated through the application of a battery of tests and a syntactic account of their distribution will be given in terms of Feature Checking Theory.
The Research of Regional Agricultural Products E-commerce Based on Complex Adaptive System

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

China is rich in agricultural products, due to the contradiction between the decentralized production and the socialized market, a new modern market service system is urgently needed to solve these contradictions. This study analyzes the current situation and development countermeasures of regional agricultural products e-commerce in China, and provides some reference for the construction and development of regional agricultural products e-commerce. This research is based on the actual situation of the development of regional agricultural products and e-commerce in the past to makes a simple exploration of the mode of agricultural production and operation. Based on the analysis of the demand of the farmers to the e-commerce system, the intelligent sensor is connected to the Internet of things, and the attempt to propose the solution of "Internet plus agricultural business" is put forward. The experimental results show that the main regional agricultural products in China are aquatic products. E-commerce of agricultural products effectively introduces e-commerce into traditional trade of agricultural products and realizes the organic combination.

Clinical impact of sedentary behaviors in adult survivors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia: A report from the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort study

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

BACKGROUND Sedentary behaviors are associated with poor health outcomes in the general population, but their clinical impact on adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has not been characterized to date. In the current study, we described the prevalence of sedentary behaviors in survivors of ALL and examined associations between time spent sedentary and body composition and onset of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. METHODS Participants' self‐reported screen time (eg, television, computer) and activity as measured by accelerometer were used to determine activity time (sedentary, light activity, and moderate or vigorous physical activity). The percentage of time spent in each activity was compared between 331 survivors of ALL and 330 controls. Associations between time sedentary and body composition were evaluated in survivors using linear regression models. Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the association between time sedentary at baseline and CVD risk factor onset during follow‐up. RESULTS Survivors spent approximately 65% of their time sedentary, 32% in light activity, and 2% in moderate or vigorous physical activity compared with 67% ( P = .04), 30% ( P <.01), and 3% ( P <.01), respectively, in controls. Among survivors, percentage lean body mass decreased by 1.0% ± 0.4% ( P = .01) per 10% increase in time sedentary. Survivors who were sedentary ≥60% per day were found to be at an increased risk of high total cholesterol (hazard ratio, 2.52; 95% confidence interval, 1.12‐5.64) and any CVD risk factor (hazard ratio, 1.96; 95% confidence interval, 1.16‐3.30). CONCLUSIONS Sedentary behavior is associated with low lean mass and CVD risk factor development and should be limited in survivors of childhood ALL.

PHEBUS on-line aerosol monitor development test program

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

EG&G Idaho, Inc. developed an on-line aerosol monitor (OLAM) for the French PHEBUS Fission Product Project. Part of the development was to manufacture and test an OLAM prototype. This report presents the results of the testing which determined the mechanical integrity of the monitor at operating temperature and pressure and performed a preliminary test of the optical system. A series of twenty different tests was conducted during the prototype testing sequence. Since no leaks were detected, the OLAM demonstrated that it could provide a pressure boundary at required test conditions. The optical and electrical system also proved its integrity by exceeding the design requirement of less than 105 optical signal drift during an actual two-hour test sequence.
Revisiting Radial Distortion Rectification in Polar-Coordinates: A New and Efficient Learning Perspective

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Fisheye cameras can capture a large field-of-view (Fov) scene but it introduces severe radial distortion in images. Thus, distortion rectification is a crucial step for subsequent computer vision tasks using fisheye cameras. A prevalent type of method predicts the displacement field between the input and output to rectify the distorted images. However, it is challenging to estimate the accurate flow in Cartesian coordinates (both $x$ and $y$ directions), in which the sampling strategy of the convolution kernel ignores the radial symmetry of distortion. In general, the pixel's distortion at the same radius from the center is the same, while the radius corresponds to one parameter in polar coordinates. Motivated by this fact, we exploit the radial symmetry of distortion to predict a more straightforward one-dimensional flow, transforming the distorted image into the polar coordinates domain instead of predicting two-dimensional flow in $x$ and $y$ directions. Specifically, we propose a Polar coordinates Distortion Rectification Network (PCDRN), whose sampling strategy corresponds to the radial distortion characteristic so that a more accurate flow can be predicted. To eliminate the blurs and ring artifacts induced by the coordinates transformation, a Polar-To-Cartesian Appearance Enhancement Network is designed to enhance the local appearance of rectified images. Experimental results on the synthesized dataset and real-world dataset demonstrate the superiority of our approach in both quantitative and qualitative evaluations.
