Presenting a Systematic Method for LU Decomposition of a Matrix with Linear Systolic Arrays

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Systolic arrays are a set of simple processors that they have placed beside each other based on specific pattern. Their properties such as regularity, local communications, ability of parallel and pipeline processing have introduced them as a useful structure for executing computational algorithms with high speed. In this paper, we will present a systematic method for mapping LU decomposition of a matrix onto linear systolic arrays. The proposed method will use a Space-Time transformation so that space index of algorithm will be mapped onto linear systolic array. By using such transformation, we can determine time and location of each computation of algorithm on the processor array, respectively. The resulting structure has been compared with General Parameter Method and Dependency Method from < Processing Time >, < Number of Processor Element> and parameters point of view with several order of LU decomposition algorithm. The results of evaluation shows that use of this method will improve the parameter. This parameter is very important in VLSI designs, therefore it will bring about a trade off among computational time, occupied area and power consumption.
Personal Taxes and the underpricing of initial public offerings

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to propose an alternative explanation for the underpricing of initial public offerings (IPOs). The first section reviews the empirical evidence on underpricing IPOs in support of various alternative hypotheses that have been put forth in the literature. This is followed by our model which examines the effect of personal taxes paid by entrepreneurs on the choice of the issue price. We show that, in the presence of taxes and for certain levels of ownership retained by the entrepreneur, it may be preferable to underprice the issue. This theoretical result is reinforced by both the simulation and empirical tests.
Radiation from the Forced Harmonic Vibrations of a Clamped Circular Plate in an Acoustic Fluid

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The forced harmonic vibrations of a solid circular plate clamped to a rigid infinite baffle and bounded on one side of an inviscid fluid of infinite extent is considered. The motion in the plate is described by the Mindlin-Timoshenko theory, which includes the effects of transverse shear and rotatory inertia. The external force, which is applied from the in vacuo side of the plate, can have any spatial distribution. The solution is obtained with the use of orthogonal functions which result from transforming the polar cylindrical coordinates describing the fluid motion into oblate spheroidal coordinates and the solution to the in vacuo vibrations of the clamped plate. This method of solution removes all previous restrictions regarding the solution of this problem, namely, boundary conditions of the plate, symmetry of loading, applicable frequency range, and extensive numerical calculations for the determination of the complete nearfield pressure. Expressions are obtained for the near- and farfield pressure in the fluid and the radiated power from the plate-fluid surface. A numerical case for a concentrated load at the center of the plate is presented.

Benchmarking Large Language Models in Evidence-Based Medicine

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Evidence-based medicine (EBM) represents a paradigm of providing patient care grounded in the most current and rigorously evaluated research. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) offer a potential solution to transform EBM by automating labor-intensive tasks and thereby improving the efficiency of clinical decision-making. This study explores integrating LLMs into the key stages in EBM, evaluating their ability across evidence retrieval (PICO extraction, biomedical question answering), synthesis (summarizing randomized controlled trials), and dissemination (medical text simplification). We conducted a comparative analysis of seven LLMs, including both proprietary and open-source models, as well as those fine-tuned on medical corpora. Specifically, we benchmarked the performance of various LLMs on each EBM task under zero-shot settings as baselines, and employed prompting techniques, including in-context learning, chain-of-thought reasoning, and knowledge-guided prompting to enhance their capabilities. Our extensive experiments revealed the strengths of LLMs, such as remarkable understanding capabilities even in zero-shot settings, strong summarization skills, and effective knowledge transfer via prompting. Promoting strategies such as knowledge-guided prompting proved highly effective (e.g., improving the performance of GPT-4 by 13.10% over zero-shot in PICO extraction). However, the experiments also showed limitations, with LLM performance falling well below state-of-the-art baselines like PubMedBERT in handling named entity recognition tasks. Moreover, human evaluation revealed persisting challenges with factual inconsistencies and domain inaccuracies, underscoring the need for rigorous quality control before clinical application. This study provides insights into enhancing EBM using LLMs while highlighting critical areas for further research.

CD40‐CD40 ligand (CD40L) signaling modulates cardiac hypertrophy in angiotensin‐II induced hypertensive heart disease

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The co‐stimulatory dyad CD40‐CD40L is involved in pro‐inflammatory activation of a wide range of immune and non‐immune cells. Here we investigated whether CD40‐CD40L interactions attenuate cardiac hypertrophy in hypertensive heart disease. Therefore CD40 knockout and wild type C57Bl6‐J mice were treated with angiotensin II (AngII) (2.5 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks. AngII‐induced hypertension led to a significant increase in cardiac mass in Wt mice (+31%, P<0.01), but not in CD40 knockout mice (+10%, N.S.). Comparable changes were observed in diastolic wall thickness (echocardiography) and cardiomyocyte cross sectional area. To determine which CD40‐TRAF interactions were involved, the effect of mutations in the intracellular TRAF binding domains of CD40 was investigated. Relative to mice with intact downstream CD40 signaling, disruption of TRAF2/3/5, TRAF6 or both binding sites was associated with reduced hypertrophy (cardiac mass −24% for CD40‐TΔ2, −28% for CD40‐ TΔ6 and −26% in CD40‐TΔ2/6; p<0.05). Reduced hypertrophy was not associated with a decline in immune cell infiltration (CD45 + cells) or collagen content. Although the exact mechanism remains to be elucidated the present findings indicate that CD40‐ CD40L interactions are involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy.
Manajemen Operasional Hotel Syariah Menurut Maqashid Syariah Di Indonesia

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

This research aims to examine the implementation of Maqashid Syariah in sharia hotel operational management. Maqashid Syariah, which includes the main objectives of sharia such as the protection of religion, soul, mind, lineage and property, is the main basis for managing sharia hotels. With a qualitative approach, this research analyzes various aspects of operational management, including guest service, human resource management, financial policies, and hygiene and security practices. The research results show that the application of Maqashid Syariah principles in hotel operations not only ensures compliance with Islamic law but also improves service quality and customer satisfaction. The implementation of sharia values ​​in every aspect of operational management contributes to the creation of a harmonious and sustainable environment, as well as strengthening the position of sharia hotels in the competitive hotel industry. This study suggests that sharia hotel managers continue to integrate Maqashid Syariah principles to achieve sustainability and operational excellence.
Geopolitical attitudes of the Ukrainians in the realities of large-scale military aggression in 2014-2022: historical understanding of dilemmas

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The work examines the problem of geopolitical attitudes of Ukrainians in the realities of large-scale military aggression. The article notes that the number of supporters of democratic Western values is growing in Ukraine. The research is primarily based on the use of empirical research methods: observation and survey. Sociological surveys conducted by Ukrainian sociological research groups: “Rating”, “Democratic Initiatives named after I. Kucheriv” and “Kyiv International Institute of Sociology” In the results, it was noted that the geopolitical attitudes of Ukrainians in the southeastern regions have noticeably transformed. In particular, if in 2013 the idea of joining the Customs Union was supported by the majority of residents (64%), then in 2015 only 33% supported it. In general, the number of Ukrainians who support Ukraine's accession to the EU will continue to grow. The conclusions summarize that the Russian-Ukrainian war influenced a new understanding of Russian-Ukrainian relations in the post-Soviet space. The level of Ukrainian support for the idea of Ukraine's integration into the European Union is particularly high.
Risk factors for and types of oesophageal cancer

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

1mentions that the potential influence of histology has been largely ignored in clinical trials of oesophageal cancer. He notes that the frequency of adenocarcinoma is rising, but that only a fairly small number of patients with adenocarcinomas are included in trials. In Scotland, most oesophageal cancers are adenocarcinomas, whereas in the clinical trials most cancers (77%) were squamous cell carcinomas. 1 Munro therefore concludes that the results of the clinical trials on oesophageal cancer have limited relevance for most patients with such cancer. This conclusion might be so for Scotland, but in other regions of the world patients’ characteristics and types of oesophageal cancer might be more comparable with those reported in the clinical trials. In Uganda, for example, between 1998 and 2003, in the Kyadondo county (Kampala region), 111 histologically proven oesophageal cancers were reported; 85 (77%) of them were squamous cell carcinomas, eight (7%) adenocarcinomas, and 18 (16%) histologically unspecified; 63% were in men. These frequencies have not changed over time. 2
Taylor Rule During the Zero or Low Interest Rate Era: The Recent Japanese Case

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

The Taylor rule has been discussed a lot in theoretical and empirical studies. However, interest rates are quite low all over the world. Japan is no exception. Instead of traditional monetary policy based on interest rates, unconventional monetary policy based on money has been ongoing. This paper investigates whether the Taylor rule fits well in the recent Japanese case. With some other variables added to the Taylor rule along with price gap and output gap, the augmented Taylor rule is examined empirically. The empirical results show that the traditional Taylor rule is more appropriate than most augmented ones; however, exchange rate should be taken into account in determining monetary policy. Moreover, a more aggressive monetary policy from the latter part of the 2000s is needed.
Formation of Precipitation Ellipsoidal Disks and Spheres\nin the Wake of a Planar Diffusion Front

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Pattern formation\nis one of the examples of self-organization.\nIn the generation of patterns, the coupling between the mass transport\nof the chemical species and their chemical reactions plays an important\nrole. Periodic precipitation (Liesegang phenomenon) is a type of pattern\nformation in which layered precipitation structures form in the wake\nof the diffusion front. Here, we show a new type of precipitation\npattern formation in zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 in a solid\nhydrogel column in a test tube manifested in the generation of precipitation\nellipsoidal disks and spheres in the wake of the planar diffusion\nfront of the outer electrolyte (2-methylimidazole). To increase the\nprobability of the emergence of ellipsoidal disks and spheres, the\nsurfaces of the borosilicate test tubes were chemically treated and\nfunctionalized. To support the experimental findings, we developed\na reaction–diffusion model that qualitatively describes the\nformation of precipitate ellipsoidal disks and spheres in a test tube.

This study explored the perceptions of ten White female South African volunteers \nworking with black children diagnosed HIV positive and/or orphaned by AIDS. A \nqualitative research strategy was used in order to explore the participants’ perceptions of \nthe role that racial dynamics and everyday racism play in their work as volunteers. Ten \nparticipants over the age of 18 years, that have been volunteering for a minimum of one \nmonth and that volunteer for a minimum of one hour a week at an organisation in \nJohannesburg, were interviewed. The data were transcribed and analysed using thematic \ncontent analysis and the findings were interpreted using a framework drawn from critical \nrace theory and critical Whiteness studies. Notions of everyday racism were evidenced in \nthe findings of the study. These findings challenge traditional notions in a novel way by \nexpanding the current understanding of the racial dynamics at play in a country working \ntowards equality. In doing so, the study raises theoretical and practical implications for \nefforts aimed to address racism in South Africa.
ATP‐fueled soft gel machine with well‐oriented structure constructed using actin‐myosin system

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

Abstract Fibrous actomyosin gel was obtained by applying an external shear stress to actomyosin solution injected from a syringe and then performing chemical cross‐linking. The actomyosin gel shrunk when ATP was added, and the shrinkage ratio was proportional to its ATPase activity. The shrinkage of the gel was repeatable at least for four times. Furthermore, the shrinkage of the gel enhanced the regular orientation of the actin and myosin filaments in the gel, which in turn enhanced the shrinking velocity of the gel. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Science, State and Society

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This paper centers on the history of the development of science and scientific research in Spain in the mid-twentieth century, by reading José María Albareda's Considerations on Scientific Research. The book blends anecdotes about his personal life and personal references to scientists from abroad, with whom Albareda was associated, thoughts on the nature of science and the situation of research in Spain after the Civil War (1936 – 1939), and proposals about the relation between the State and the University. Albareda was a professor of the Faculty of Pharmacy at the Universidad Central, and, from 1939, General Secretary of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (Higher Council for Scientific Research) and Director of the Institute of Edaphology. Reading Albareda's autobiography allows us to use biographical data from one of the protagonists of scientific policy in Spain in the second half of the twentieth century to illuminate a scientist's reflections on intellectual life and its relationship with existing institutions.
Developing a measurement scale for employee engagement: a validation study in a South Korean context

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop a reliable and valid measurement scale of employee engagement that can be used in human resources departments in any industry field. Design/methodology/approach This study used the measurement development process with three steps. The first step was to generate items for measuring employee engagement. For this reason, the authors proposed an integrated conceptual model based on the results of a literature review and justify the concepts from self-determination theory and person-environment fit theory as the theoretical foundation. The second step was to determine the types of questions suitable for measurement, examining the content validity. Content validity was conducted two times by the group, academic experts and business practitioners. The last step was to examine the exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), multi-group analysis and reliability with 352 survey responses from the South Korean business context. Findings Findings of the measurement scale development procedure, i.e. employee engagement, should be managed in a balanced manner in all dimensions, as it is composed of four dimensions (person engagement, work engagement, organization engagement and relation engagement) and 16 sub-factors. Additionally, organization engagement was the major factor among the four dimensions of employee engagement with the highest variance explanation. From the statistical standpoint, the employee engagement scale (EES) is possible to use in any industry field because it demonstrated not only content validity and internal consistency reliability but also the three steps of factor analysis (EFA, CFA and multi-group analysis). Research limitations/implications This survey was conducted with an assistant manager located in Korea. Therefore, it will be necessary to analyze both leader and employee engagement for those who live in foreign countries. The EES is useful to leaders and human resource managers because it is applicable to managing engagement levels of employees and fosters customized training programs. Originality/value This is the first study to develop measurement tools for employee engagement in South Korea. In addition, most studies demonstrated that individual feeling was valued to drive employee engagement. This research, however, proposes an extended concept of employee engagement for four dimensions (person, work, relation and organization) and emphasizes the important relationship between individuals and colleagues in an organization. Based on these results, a theoretically integrated model of employee engagement was developed and a practically valid measurement tool for capturing comprehensive domains of employee engagement was proposed.

This paper documents labor mobility ∞ows from multinationals (MNEs) to nonMNEs in Norwegian manufacturing during the 1990s. 14,400 workers in MNEs move to non-MNEs during this period. By the year 2000, 28 percent of the non-MNEs employed workers with experience from MNEs. Consistent with spillovers through mobility, I estimate a robust and signiflcantly positive correlation between the share of workers with MNE-experience and the productivity of non-MNEs. Workers with MNE-experience contribute 20% more to the productivity of their plant than workers without experience from MNEs, even after controlling for difierences in unobservable worker characteristics. The difierence between the private returns to mobility and the productivity efiect at the plant level suggests that labor mobility from MNEs to non-MNEs represents a true knowledge externality.
