Testing of AJAX Based Web Applications Using Hierarchical State Model
Venue: 2016 IEEE 13th International Conference on e Business Engineering (ICEBE)

As Ajax, a widely used web development technique, is able to dynamically construct the structures of DOM elements on the browser side, more and more executions of business logic have been shifted from back end servers to front end browsers. Moreover, by means of Ajax technique, updates of Web content can take place asynchronously in the background without requesting the whole web pages from servers so it gains the benefit from reducing the amount of network traffic between browsers and web servers. However, in term of web application testing, the existing approaches, adopting web browsing paths as test cases, are failed to apply in such web applications. In this paper, we propose a test model for Ajax based web applications based on a hierarchical state machine. The test model is established from observing the state changes of HTML element's attributes and the events that trigger the changes, and then transformed into state transition test trees. Finally, it generates corresponding test cases composed by triggered events to test the behavior of Ajax based web applications.
Metabolism and bioactivation of the tricyclic antidepressant amitriptyline in human liver microsomes and human urine.
Venue: Bioanalysis

Amitriptyline is a widely used tricyclic antidepressant, but the metabolic studies were conducted almost 20 years ago using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with ultraviolet detector or radiolabeled methods.  First, multiple ion monitoring (MIM) enhanced product ion (EPI) scan was used to obtain the diagnostic ions or neutral losses in human liver microsome incubations with amitriptyline. Subsequently, predicted multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) EPI scan was used to identify the metabolites in human urine with the diagnostic ions or neutral losses. Finally, product ion filtering and neutral loss filtering were used as the data mining tools to screen metabolites. Consequently, a total of 28 metabolites were identified in human urine after an oral administration using LC MS/MS.  An integrated workflow using LC MS/MS was developed to comprehensively profile the metabolites of amitriptyline in human urine, in which five N acetyl l cysteine conjugates were characterized as tentative biomarkers for idiosyncratic toxicity.
Acupuncture for persistent insomnia associated with major depressive disorder: a randomised controlled trial.
Venue: Hong Kong medical journal Xianggang yi xue za zhi

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common psychiatric condition. A sizable proportion of patients with MDD partially respond to mainstream treatment and are left with residual symptoms, of which insomnia is the most common.1 Although pharmacological and psychological treatments may help to alleviate residual insomnia, both have limitations. The use of complementary and alternative medicine therapies for insomnia has become more common. Acupuncture is one of the most popular procedures. In 2011, we published the first randomised trial of electroacupuncture for residual insomnia associated with MDD.2 Electroacupuncture and minimal acupuncture were comparable and more efficacious than placebo control. In the present study, we aimed to enhance the efficacy of acupuncture for insomnia by augmenting essential acupoints. We hypothesised that electroacupuncture was significantly more efficacious than minimal acupuncture and placebo acupuncture for the treatment of residual insomnia in MDD.
The case for an integrated approach to transitionprogrammes at South Africa's higher education institutions

This paper advocates an integrated approach to transition programmes at South Africa's higher education institutions through drawing on the US literature on the first year student experience and specific reference to behavioural interaction theory. The case for developing intentional and vertically integrated transition programmes is tied to: the need to understand the desired behaviours and learning outcomes at each stage of a student's experience; an appreciation of the cognitive, psychosocial and identity development at different years of study; and a recognition of environmental influences and how they relate to, and can be adapted to, changing student characteristics and needs. Particular reference is made to Chickering and Reisser's seven vectors of identity development, Baxter Magolda's work on young adults' journey toward self authorship, and Bronfenbrenner's developmental ecology model. It is concluded that an intentional, vertical integration of transition programmes requires horizontal alignment between objectives (desired behaviour) the developmental needs of students, and educational environments. In this regard, a number of recommendations for higher education instructional and support staff are proposed.
Black Fathers' Participation in Early Childhood Development in South Africa: What Do We Know?

This paper draws from an ongoing exploratory qualitative study, which uses semi structured interviews to investigate the views of fathers about strategies to encourage men's participation in early childhood education in one of the townships in the Eastern Cape Province. The study aims to contribute to knowledge about fathers' participation in early childhood education in general and on the participation of black fathers in particular. Informed by Uriel Bronfenbrenner's ecological model, the literature review explores the current state of fathers' participation during the early beginning of the child; barriers to sustained fathers' participation; and current strategies in place to encourage sustainable and meaningful father participation in the early education of their children. This paper argues that what is currently known about black fathers' participation in the early education of their children is grossly inadequate. Given limited information on Black fathers' participation in the education of their children in South Africa, this paper concludes that more research on Black fathers and their participation in early education of children is therefore required. Some implications for research and policy are also discussed.

Application of Carrera Unified Formulation to study the effect of porosity on natural frequencies of thick porous cellular plates

Unified Formulation (CUF) is used for free vibration analysis of Levy type thick rectangular porous cellular plates. The variation of porosity through the thickness causes mechanical properties to change along the thickness. Properties are modeled by a simple cosine rule. The equations of motion are solved analytically for Levy type rectangular porous cellular plates using state space method. The correctness of this approach is confirmed through comparison studies with published results based on highly accurate approaches. Different orders of model are used to enhance the accuracy of the method in order to obtain the exact frequencies of thick and very thick porous cellular plates. The effects of the coefficient of plate porosity and the thickness length ratio as well as the aspect ratio, on the frequencies are investigated for Levy type boundary conditions. It is found that natural frequencies of the porous cellular thick plates decrease as the coefficient of plate porosity increases in all studied boundary conditions.
Static analysis of functionally graded plates using new non polynomial displacement fields via Carrera Unified Formulation

This paper presents a static analysis of functionally graded (FG) single and sandwich plates using Carrera Unified Formulation with five new displacement fields of the non polynomial form. In particular, trigonometric, exponential and hyperbolic displacement fields are employed. The simply supported FG single and sandwich plates are subjected to a bi sinusoidal load. The governing equations for the static bending analysis are obtained employing the Principal of Virtual Displacement (PVD) under CUF and solved using Navier type solutions. The results show that non polynomial thickness functions are accurate although, in a few cases, the influence of some non polynomial terms may be detrimental.
Linearized buckling analysis of isotropic and composite beam columns by Carrera Unified Formulation and dynamic stiffness method

This article introduces a one dimensional (1D) higher order exact formulation for linearized buckling analysis of beam columns. The Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF) is utilized and the displacement field is expressed as a generic N order expansion of the generalized unknown displacement field. The principle of virtual displacements is invoked along with CUF to derive the governing equations and the associated natural boundary conditions in terms of fundamental nuclei, which can be systematically expanded according to N by exploiting an extensive index notation. After the closed form solution of the N order beam column element is sought, an exact dynamic stiffness (DS) matrix is derived by relating the amplitudes of the loads to those of the responses. The global DS matrix is finally processed through the application of the Wittrick Williams algorithm to extract the buckling loads of the structure. Isotropic solid and thin walled cross section beams as well as laminated composite structures are analyzed in this article. The validity of the formulation and its broad range of applicability are demonstrated through comparisons of results from the literature and by using commercial finite element codes.
Laminated composite plates subject to thermal load using trigonometrical theory based on Carrera Unified Formulation

In the present work, an analytical solution for the thermoelastic static problem of simply supported laminated composite plates is presented. The present mathematical model uses a unified new trigonometric displacement field expansion under Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF) The equivalent single layer (ESL) governing equations are written using CUF notation for static thermal stress analysis employing the Principle of Virtual Displacement (PVD) The highly coupled partial differential equations are solved using Navier solution method. Normalized and non normalized unified trigonometric shear strain shape functions are introduced for the first time. Shear deformation results are compared with the classical polynomial ones, which is usually adopted in several refined plate theories under CUF. Linear temperature profile and non linear temperature profile obtained by solving heat conduction problem are taken into account. Good agreements with 3D solution for several order of expansion are reached, but instabilities are shown for some particular order of expansion even when an exact through the thickness integration technique was adopted. Similar values are presented between polynomial and non polynomial displacement fields. However, non polynomial functions can be optimized by changing the arguments of such functions in order to improve the results. Future studies are necessary in this direction.
Carrera Unified Formulation for Free Vibration Analysis of Aircraft Structures

Advanced structural models, based on variable one two and three dimensional kinematics, are proposed in this paper and applied to the analysis of the free vibration of reinforced aircraft shell structures. The used models go beyond classical structural theories, that is, Euler Bernoulli (for one dimensional beams) and Kirchhoff (for two dimensional plates) type assumptions. The order of the expansion of the displacement fields over the cross section (one dimensional case) and along the plate thickness (two dimensional case) is, in fact, a free parameter of the problem. In this paper, Lagrange polynomials are used to build such expansions, and as a consequence, only displacements are used as the problem unknowns (no rotations or derivatives of displacements, which are typical of one dimensional/two dimensional classical theories, are introduced) The finite element method is used to provide numerical solutions. The related arrays and the governing dynamical equations are written in terms of a few funda.
Predicting green product consumption using theory of planned behavior and reasoned action

The extended Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) incorporates environmental concern, a critical variable in green marketing literature, intending to achieve triple bottom line (TBL) In this context, this study aims to validate TPB and its extended form (mediating role of TPB variables) as well as the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) to predict Indian consumersaEUR(tm) green product purchase intention. We collected primary data from 521 respondents as input, establishing validity through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) Our empirical results of structural equation modeling (SEM) show that extended TPB has higher predictability than TPB and TRA in green marketing settings. Consumer attitude and perceived behavioral control significantly predicts purchase intention whereas subjective norm does not. Our findings also suggest that TPB mediates the relationship between environmental concern and green products purchase intention. An additional construct in the new model considerably contributes to improving the understanding of green products purchase intention formation and could become a sustainable mainstream variable.
Social networks and information retrieval, how are they converging? A survey, a taxonomy and an analysis of social information retrieval approaches and platforms
Venue: Inf. Syst.

There is currently a number of research work performed in the area of bridging the gap between Information Retrieval (IR) and Online Social Networks (OSN) This is mainly done by enhancing the IR process with information coming from social networks, a process called Social Information Retrieval (SIR) The main question one might ask is: What would be the benefits of using social information (no matter whether it is content or structure) into the Information Retrieval process and how is this currently done?With the growing number of efforts towards the combination of IR and social networks, it is necessary to build a clearer picture of the domain and synthesize the efforts in a structured and meaningful way. This paper reviews different efforts in this domain. It intends to provide a clear understanding of the issues as well as a clear structure of the contributions. More precisely, we propose: (i) to review some of the most important contributions in this domain to understand the principles of SIR, (ii) a taxonomy to categorize these contributions, and finally, (iii) an analysis of some of these contributions and tools with respect to several criteria, which we believe are crucial to design an effective SIR approach. This paper is expected to serve researchers and practitioners as a reference to help them structuring the domain, position themselves and, ultimately, help them to propose new contributions or improve existing ones.
Participatory Budgeting in Europe: Democracy and public governance

Can participatory budgeting help make public services really work for the public Incorporating a range of experiments in ten different countries, this book provides the first comprehensive analysis of participatory budgeting in Europe and the effect it has had on democracy, the modernization of local government, social justice, gender mainstreaming and sustainable development. By focussing on the first decade of European participatory budgeting and analysing the results and the challenges affecting the agenda today it provides a critical appraisal of the participatory model. Detailed comparisons of European cases expose similarities and differences between political cultures and offer a strong empirical basis to discuss the theories of deliberative and participatory democracy and reveal contradictory tendencies between political systems, public administrations and democratic practices.
Influence of COD:N ratio on sludge properties and their role in membrane fouling of a submerged membrane bioreactor.
Venue: Water research

The effect of COD:N ratio on sludge properties and their role in membrane fouling were examined using a well controlled aerobic membrane bioreactor receiving a synthetic high strength wastewater containing glucose. Membrane performance was improved with an increase in the COD/N ratio (100:5 100:1.8) (i.e. reduced N dosage) Surface analysis of sludge by X ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicates significant differences in surface concentrations of elements C, O and N that were observed under different COD/N ratios, implying changes in the composition of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed a unique characteristic peak (CO bonds) at 1735 cm( 1) under nitrogen limitation conditions. Total EPS decreased with an increase in COD/N ratio, corresponding to a decrease in the proteins (PN) to carbohydrates (CH) ratio in EPS. There were no significant differences in the total soluble microbial products (SMPs) but the ratio of PN/CH in SMPs decreased with an increase in COD/N ratios. The results suggest that EPS and SMP composition and the presence of a small quantity of filamentous microorganisms played an important role in controlling membrane fouling.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon formation from gasification of sewage sludge in supercritical water: The concentration distribution and effect of sludge properties

The changes in the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentration and distribution in 10 different types of raw sewage sludge and gasified residues were investigated, and the effects of the sludge properties and the organic matter composition were determined. The results showed that the concentrations of 2 ring and 6 ring PAHs increased significantly during the gasification process. The PAHs in raw sludge were dominated by 3 ring and 4 ring PAHs, and those after gasification were dominated by 2 ring and 3 ring PAHs. The total PAH concentration increased with the increasing volatile matter content and decreased with the increasing pH value. Phenols have been considered to be important precursors for PAH synthesis. The crude fat and carbohydrate content can promote lower molecular weight PAH formation, while lignin and humic substance content can promote higher molecular weight PAH formation, which indicates that the organic matter composition in raw sludge has a high impact on the PAH distribution.
Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition Supplementary Materials

In this section we introduce our detection method based on the baseline Faster R CNN [6] system. The models are initialized by the ImageNet classification models, and then fine tuned on the object detection data. We have experimented with ResNet 50/101 at the time of the ILSVRC COCO 2015 detection competitions. Unlike VGG 16 used in  our ResNet has no hidden fc layers. We adopt the idea of "Networks on Conv feature maps" (NoC)  to address this issue. We compute the full image shared conv feature maps using those layers whose strides on the image are no greater than 16 pixels (i.e. conv1, conv2 x, conv3 x, and conv4 x, totally 91 conv layers in ResNet 101) We consider these layers as analogous to the 13 conv layers in VGG 16, and by doing so, both ResNet and VGG 16 have conv feature maps of the same total stride (16 pixels) These layers are shared by a region proposal network (RPN, generating 300 proposals)  and a Fast R CNN detection network [2] RoI pooling  is performed before conv5 1. On this RoI pooled feature, all layers of conv5 x and up are adopted for each region, playing the roles of VGG 16's fc layers. The final classification layer is replaced by two sibling layers (classification and box regression  For the usage of BN layers, after pre training, we compute the BN statistics (means and variances) for each layer on the ImageNet training set. Then the BN layers are fixed during fine tuning for object detection. As such, the BN layers become linear activations with constant offsets and scales, and BN statistics are not updated by fine tuning. We fix the BN layers mainly for reducing memory consumption in Faster R CNN training.
Senescence Associated MCP 1 Secretion Is Dependent on a Decline in BMI1 in Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells.
Venue: Antioxidants redox signaling

Cellular senescence and its secretory phenotype (senescence associated secretory phenotype [SASP] develop after long term expansion of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) Further investigation of this phenotype is required to improve the therapeutic efficacy of MSC based cell therapies. In this study, we show that positive feedback between SASP and inherent senescence processes plays a crucial role in the senescence of umbilical cord blood derived MSCs (UCB MSCs)  We found that monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP 1) was secreted as a dominant component of the SASP during expansion of UCB MSCs and reinforced senescence via its cognate receptor chemokine (c c motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) by activating the ROS p38 MAPK p53/p21 signaling cascade in both an autocrine and paracrine manner. The activated p53 in turn increased MCP 1 secretion, completing a feed forward loop that triggered the senescence program in UCB MSCs. Accordingly, knockdown of CCR2 in UCB MSCs significantly improved their therapeutic ability to alleviate airway inflammation in an experimental allergic asthma model. Moreover, BMI1, a polycomb protein, repressed the expression of MCP 1 by binding to its regulatory elements. The reduction in BMI1 levels during UCB MSC senescence altered the epigenetic status of MCP 1, including the loss of H2AK119Ub, and resulted in derepression of MCP 1.  Our results provide the first evidence supporting the existence of the SASP as a causative contributor to UCB MSC senescence and reveal a so far unappreciated link between epigenetic regulation and SASP for maintaining a stable senescent phenotype.  Senescence of UCB MSCs is orchestrated by MCP 1, which is secreted as a major component of the SASP and is epigenetically regulated by BMI1.
