Wavelet Analysis of Business Cycle Synchronization in Europe

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Business cycle synchronization is an essential criterion for creating and maintaining an optimal currency area. In this paper, it is investigated whether this required criterion holds for the Euro area at different time horizons (short run, medium run and long run), and if the financial crisis of 2007-2008 influenced the degree of synchronization in Europe. Wavelet analysis on the real GDP growth and unemployment rate is used to investigate business cycle synchronization between the EU-15 countries. The data is decomposed into time and frequency using both the continuous wavelet transform and the discrete wavelet transform, and varimax rotated principal component analysis is used to investigate business cycle synchronization at the different time horizons. It is found that there is a high degree of business cycle synchronization in Europe for the different time horizons considered, however the core is more synchronized while some peripheral countries tend to diverge. Furthermore, our results also suggest that there has been an increase in business cycle synchronization after the financial crisis for the core but not for some peripheral countries.

Does entrepreneurship fit her? Women entrepreneurs, gender-role orientation, and entrepreneurial culture

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Abstract The present research analyzes the way in which gender-role orientation (GRO) and perceived entrepreneurial culture affect the advancement of women through the different stages in the entrepreneurial process. To do so, a sample of 1195 Spanish women is studied using Bem’s Sex Role Inventory to identify their GRO and a perceived regional culture (PRC) scale. The results confirm that women with a masculine or androgynous orientation are more likely to develop entrepreneurial careers. Besides, for masculine GRO women, the perception of a supportive entrepreneurial culture in their region fosters their advancement in entrepreneurship. In contrast, the effect of perceived culture is negative for women with an androgynous GRO. These results contribute to advance knowledge on the entrepreneurial process for women. Based on our results, the debate about women entrepreneurship should be expanded to fully acknowledge the relevance of GRO.

Dreaming as Metaphor in Motion

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The Dream is a law to itself; and as well quarrel with a rainbow for showing, or for not showing, a secondary arch. The Dream knows best, and the Dream, I say again, is the responsible party.—De Quincey THERE is a timely need for the revision of dream theory along the following lines: (1) away from metapsychological speculation about dream origins, functions, form, and structure; (2) toward seeing the dream as an aspect of a total behavioral response; (3) toward examining the formal characteristics of dream thought in their intimate association with the altered level of brain function occurring at the time; (4) toward an examination of content as derivative of a social existence that in turn has unknown as well as known dimensions; and (5) toward the development and application of techniques for translating the dream metaphor that are not derived from or limited by
Efficient Inoculation of Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus to Maize Using Laodelphax striatellus Fallen

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract Maize rough dwarf disease caused by Rice black‐streaked dwarf virus ( RBSDV ) is the most important disease of maize in China. Although deploying disease resistant hybrids would be the most effective way to control the disease, development of resistant hybrids has been limited by virus transmission rates that are too low for effective screening. An efficient inoculation technique for RBSDV was developed using L aodelphax striatellus Fallen, in which a virus‐free planthopper colony was developed and viruliferous planthoppers were obtained by allowing a 3‐ to 4‐day acquisition access period on RBSDV ‐infected wheat plants. Planthoppers were then allowed a 25‐ to 28‐day latent period on wheat seedlings followed by a 3‐day inoculation access period on two‐to‐three‐leaf stage maize seedlings. By 35 days postinoculation, susceptible hybrid ‘Zhengdan 958’, inbred lines of ‘Ye 107’ and ‘Ye 478’ plants showed 100% RBSDV infection with symptoms of stunting plants, darkening leaves and white waxy swellings on underside of leaves. At tasseling stage, average disease indices were from 96.4 to 100.0%. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays were correlated with the presence of symptoms. The high efficiency of RBSDV transmission obtained using this technique provides a reliable procedure to screen for RBSDV resistance in maize.

‘Your situation is critical…’

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Women remain in a small minority as business leaders in both Middle Eastern (ME) and Western European (WE) regions, and indeed, past research indicates that ME women face even greater challenges as leaders than their Western counterparts. This article explores sample findings from two separate case studies, the first of a ME woman leader and the second of a WE woman leader, each conducting a management meeting with their teams. Using interactional sociolinguistic analysis, we examine the ‘contextualisation cues’ that index how each woman performs leadership in their respective meetings. We found that both women utilise relational practices in order to enact leadership with their subordinates, but with varying results. Whereas the ME leader deploys a confident and commanding interactional style with her colleagues, the WE leader’s style is evasive and uncertain. On the basis of these two cases, the WE leader appears to face greater challenges in a male-dominated business world than the ME leader. Whereas the ME leader can rely on long-established ties of loyalty and organisation-as-family, the Western leader, within an apparently more open, democratic context, has to negotiate overwhelming turbulence and change within her company.
Thrombolysis for Ischemic Stroke Beyond the 4.5-Hour Window: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background A minority of patients with stroke qualify for intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) within 4.5-hour window. The safety and efficacy of IVT beyond this period have not been well studied. Methods We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov for relevant randomized clinical trials. Randomized clinical trials comparing IVT versus standard medical care in patients with ischemic stroke beyond 4.5 hours of symptom onset or last known well without mechanical thrombectomy (MT) were included. Primary outcomes were excellent (modified Rankin Scale score of 0-1) and good (modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2) functional outcomes at 90 days, symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), and death at 90 days. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs were calculated using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was assessed by Q test and quantified by I² values. Results Eight randomized clinical trials (1742 patients; mean age, 69.8±9 years, 63.5% men) were included. Compared with standard medical care, IVT achieved higher rates of excellent (OR, 1.43 [95% CI, 1.17-1.75]; Q=2.30; P=0.94; I2=0%) and good functional outcomes (OR, 1.36 [95% CI, 1.12-1.66]; Q=2.07; P=0.96; I2=0%) at 90 days but also increased sICH rates (OR, 4.25 [95% CI, 1.67-10.84], Q=0.48; P=0.99; I2=0%). Mortality at 90 days did not significantly differ between treatment groups (OR, 1.28 [95% CI, 0.87-1.89]; Q=4.63; P=0.59; I2=0%). Subanalyses yielded numerically higher odds of excellent functional outcomes when patients were selected with perfusion imaging (3 studies, OR, 1.45 [95% CI, 1.08-1.94]) compared with diffusion-weighted imaging-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery mismatch (3 studies, OR, 1.34 [95% CI, 0.94-1.91]) and when treated with tenecteplase (3 studies, OR, 1.47 [95% CI, 1.06-2.04]) compared with alteplase (5 studies, OR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.08-1.78]). Conclusions IVT for ischemic stroke beyond 4.5 hours, without MT, led to increased odds of excellent and good functional outcomes compared with standard medical care, despite higher odds of sICH, and a nonsignificant numerical increase in mortality.
Specification of data schema mappings using weaving models

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Weaving models are used in the model driven engineering (MDE) community for various application scenarios related to model mappings. However, an analysis of its suitability for specification of heterogeneous schema mappings reveals that weaving models lack support for mapping rules and, therefore, cannot prevent mapping specifications which are semantically meaningless, wrong or disallowed. This paper proposes a solution which overcomes the identified open issue by providing the explicit support for semantic mapping rules. It is based on introduction of weaving metamodels augmented with constraints written in OCL. The role of OCL constraints is to restrict mapping specifications to only those which are semantically meaningful. Using well known MDE technologies, such as EMF and QVT, an existing tool is used to validate the presented solution. This solution is also successfully evaluated in practice.

Performance enhancement of the dual-metal gate In0.53Ga0.47As dopingless TFET by using a platinum metal strip insertion

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In this paper, a dual-metal gate In0.53Ga0.47As dopingless TFET with a platinum metal strip insertion (Pt-MSDG-TFET) is proposed and systematically investigated by using the numerical simulation. Different from that the hafnium metal strip directly reduces the lateral tunneling distance, the platinum metal strip shifts the tunneling junction toward the gate electrode, which obtains a smaller lateral tunneling distance through the applied gate voltage so as to more benefit the electron tunneling. Meanwhile, it makes the performance for Pt-MSDG-TFET more sensitive to the variation of tunneling gate workfunction (ΦM4), so that better DC and RF performances can be obtained with the decrease of ΦM4. Moreover, the investigation on the misalignment of the metal strip contributes to give a direction for the practical feasibility of manufacturing. Research indicates that the proposed Pt-MSDG-TFET is a promising TFET for ultra-low power consumption RF application.
Predicting Perceived Image Quality: A Critique of Lin and Kuo (2011)

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A recent study by Lin and Kuo reported on the image quality of a small mobile display under different ambient illumination levels. In this commentary, the present author discusses the limitations of their approach with respect to the rigorous quantification of image quality and the caveats associated with preference studies of new display technologies. Quantitatively predicting image quality using preference-based methods can be useful for initial decisions in early phases of product development, but provides limited value for the rigorous quantification of image quality of display devices.
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes from HIV-1 seropositive individuals recognize immunodominant epitopes in Gp160 and reverse transcriptase

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

Abstract The CTL response to HIV-1 is more vigorous than for any known human pathogen and may be a significant factor in preventing the progression to symptomatic disease. T cell lines, generated by non-specific stimulation with PHA and IL-2, may be reproducibly used to identify HIV-1 isolate-invariant epitopes recognized by the CTL of infected individuals. The CTL response in each of 12 infected individuals to envelope and reverse transcriptase (RT) is dominated by the recognition of one or two viral isolate-invariant epitopes. Seven subjects respond to a single gp160 epitope; three subjects recognize 2 gp160 epitopes. There is a significant increase in recognition of epitopes in the C terminal 104 amino acids of gp41 (p less than 0.002); in fact 40% of the subjects that respond to gp160 recognize the C terminal 20-mer. The CTL-mediated lysis of gp160-expressing targets is MHC restricted, but not all individuals that share the same serologically defined class I-restricting element respond to the same epitope. Recognition of the terminal 20mer is restricted by both A30 and B8. The response to RT in six subjects is distributed over the RT protein. The six subjects recognize four separate regions defined by truncated RT-vaccinia recombinants, but none of the subjects’ CTL demonstrate significant recognition of the RT epitope identified in H-2k mice and some humans.
Seeing Mountains in Mole Hills: Geographical-Slant Perception

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

When observers face directly toward the incline of a hill, their awareness of the slant of the hill is greatly overestimated, but motoric estimates are much more accurate. The present study examined whether similar results would be found when observers were allowed to view the side of a hill. Observers viewed the cross-sections of hills in real (Experiment 1) and virtual (Experiment 2) environments and estimated the inclines with verbal estimates, by adjusting the cross-section of a disk, and by adjusting a board with their unseen hand to match the inclines. We found that the results for cross-section viewing replicated those found when observers directly face the incline. Even though the angles of hills are directly evident when viewed from the side, slant perceptions are still grossly overestimated.

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Based on phase velocity synchronization theory, a concentric arc FW-SWS is designed for 220 GHz TWT. Based on the unique advantages of concentric arc SWS, such as strong beam wave coupling, low synchronous voltage, high efficiency and effective clutter oscillation suppression, CST Particle Studio software is used to continuously optimize the SWS and adjust the beam wave interaction parameters, and try to make a breakthrough in output characteristics of this structure as slow-wave circuit of TWT. The simulation results show that the maximum output power, gain and electron efficiency are 112.82 W, 20.61 dB and 10.27%, respectively, when the electron beam voltage is 15.7 kV, the current is 70 mA and the SWS is 99 units.
Transition from Closed to Open: Case ofIntegrated Library Automation Software in India

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Prior to Open Source Integrated Library Systems (OSILSs) availability, libraries found two
alternatives to automate their housekeeping operations - either develop an exclusive in-house
software system or purchase a commercial one. Commercial packages differ with each other on
pricing and license agreements and function modules. Now, many libraries are shifting from such
traditional proprietary automation systems where the cost of software is assumed to be a major
concern, to free/open source system considering the flexibility and adaptability in using and
customizing it to fit their local needs. The study evaluates the rate of adoption of OSILS in Indian
libraries to understand the trend in comparison with proprietary systems available. Also examines
attitude and perceptions of Indian library community towards adopting OSILS. The challenges
confronted by the library community in adopting OSILS and the reasons for migrating to it are also
examined. The study found Koha to be a favored OSILS option to which many Indian libraries are
migrating. The study also found that acceptance of OSILS in higher education libraries in India is
much higher than that of school and public library system where proprietary systems still dominate.
Nonadiabatic loading of a Bose-Einstein condensate into the ground state of an optical lattice

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We present a scheme for rapid loading of a Bose-Einstein condensate into a single Bloch state of a weak optical lattice at a quasi-momentum of q = hbar k. Rabi cycling of a Bose condensate between momentum states is modified by a phase shift applied to the lattice. With an appropriate choice of the magnitude and timing of the phase shift, we demonstrate nearly perfect loading of the lattice ground state, the signature of which is an abrupt halt to the Rabi cycling.

Glycine: A Possible Role in Lithium’s Action and Affective Illness

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

In addition to its incorporation into proteins, glycine functions as both a regulator of one-carbon metabolism and as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. Clinical recognition of the hyperglycinemias and reported elevations of erythrocyte glycine concentrations in patients with bipolar disorders have implicated this amino acid in the etiopathology of some neuropsychiatric disorders. Moreover, chronic lithium administration, an almost specific intervention for the treatment and prophylaxis of bipolar disorders, has been shown to induce elevations in brain and erythrocyte glycine levels. In view of glycine's complex metabolic interrelationships and neurotransmitter function, additional research exploring its possible role in either affective illness or lithium's action is indicated.
