En 2011, el valor de produccion de la industria textil represento el 7.11% del PIB de China, por tanto; los productos textiles son productos significativos en el comercio exterior de China.
Motion events in Japanese and English: Does learning a second language change the way you view the world?
Year: 2010

Using Talmy's typological framework for the expression of motion events, the purpose of the present study is to investigate whether learning a second language that is typologically different from the learner's first language (L1) would change how the learner pays attention to different aspects of motion events. In Study 1, the participants were monolingual English speakers, and L1 English learners of Japanese as a foreign language at two different proficiency levels (i.e. lower and higher) They were presented with target videos, and for each target video a Path match and a Manner match video, and were instructed to indicate which video was most like the target one. Given that English is an S language, which conflates Manner and Motion in the main verb, and Japanese is a V language, which conflates Path and Motion in the main verb, it was hypothesized that (1) the L1 English learners of Japanese would fixate longer on the Path match videos than the monolingual English speakers, and (2) advanced L1 English learners of Japanese would fixate longer on the Path match videos than the less advanced learners of Japanese. Both hypotheses were not confirmed by the findings. In Study 2, the participants were monolingual Japanese speakers and Japanese learners of English as a second language (L2) at two different proficiency levels (i.e. low and advanced) They were asked to do the same tasks as in Study 1. It was hypothesized that (1) the Japanese learners of English would fixate longer on the Manner match videos than the monolingual Japanese speakers, and (2) advanced Japanese learners of English would fixate longer on the Manner match videos than the less advanced learners of English. Again, no significant differences were found among the three groups. The present study therefore suggests that in the domain of motion events, in contrast to what previous research has suggested, learning a second language that is typologically different from the learner's first language may not result in any alteration of habitual attention on different aspects of an event.
Improving Bank's Customer Service on the Basis of Quality Management Tools
Year: 2016

In the current market conditions, when the difference between the characteristics of services is becoming less noticeable, for saving their leading positions and improving competitiveness the loan companies should pay more attention to the relationship with different customer groups. The problem of obtaining service requirements from the customers, the necessary information about the quality of work with services and bank departments, the need for conducting the surveys and studies, analysis of comments and suggestions are especially relevant for the Russian regional banks. This article focuses on the application of quality management tools for improving the process of bank's customer service. The article presents results of the study conducted by the authors in 2011 and 2015 and aimed to confirm the hypothesis that the use of the tools of quality management in banking activities of customer service improves the competitiveness of the bank, due to better satisfaction of customers' requirements. The application of QFD and SERVQUAL methodologies is emphasized, the methods of questionnaire and expert survey were used in the process of the study, the satisfaction of different customers' categories was assessed. The object of the study was regional banks of Russia, located in the Republic of Mordovia. The study resulted in practical recommendations for improving the process of customer service in the regional Russian banks, as well as the proposal of the scheme of process management for customer service at the bank on the basis of various quality management tools.
Spanish maritime security governance in the Indian Ocean Region
Year: 2012

International maritime security issues are high on the agenda of many states and international organisations. Assaults in international waters on vessels flying the Spanish flag raised the awareness of piracy and other illicit acts at sea. Spain applies a twofold strategy in order to fight against piracy off the Somali coast and in the Indian Ocean: it takes part in the first maritime operation of the European Union (EU) EU NAVFOR Atalanta, and facilitates the deployment of private security companies (PSCs) on board civilian vessels sailing in international waters. Based on the security governance concept, this paper examines and compares the strategies regarding actors, the decision making processes, legal issues and effectiveness. The article argues that the main reason for the change in security policy is that the actors involved assume a security governance approach to be more effective in solving a specific security problem.
Complementary Features of Attention Bias Modification Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Pediatric Anxiety Disorders.
Venue: The American journal of psychiatry
Year: 2017

In the treatment of anxiety disorders, attention bias modification therapy (ABMT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) may have complementary effects by targeting different aspects of perturbed threat responses and behaviors. ABMT may target rapid, implicit threat reactions, whereas CBT may target slowly deployed threat responses. The authors used amygdala based connectivity during a threat attention task and a randomized controlled trial design to evaluate potential complementary features of these treatments in pediatric anxiety disorders.  Prior to treatment, youths (8 17 years old) with anxiety disorders (N=54) as well as healthy comparison youths (N=51) performed a threat attention task during functional MRI acquisition. Task related amygdala based functional connectivity was assessed. Patients with and without imaging data (N=85) were then randomly assigned to receive CBT paired with either active or placebo ABMT. Clinical response was evaluated, and pretreatment amygdala based connectivity profiles were compared among patients with varying levels of clinical response.  Compared with the CBT plus placebo ABMT group, the CBT plus active ABMT group exhibited less severe anxiety after treatment. The patient and healthy comparison groups differed in amygdala insula connectivity during the threat attention task. Patients whose connectivity profiles were most different from those of the healthy comparison group exhibited the poorest response to treatment, particularly those who received CBT plus placebo ABMT.  The study provides evidence of enhanced clinical effects for patients receiving active ABMT. Moreover, ABMT appears to be most effective for patients with abnormal amygdala insula connectivity. ABMT may target specific threat processes associated with dysfunctional amygdala insula connectivity that are not targeted by CBT alone. This may explain the observation of enhanced clinical response to CBT plus active ABMT.

Data driven dynamic clustering framework for mitigating the adverse economic impact of Covid 19 lockdown practices
Venue: Sustainable Cities and Society
Year: 2020

The COVID 19 disease has once again reiterated the impact of pandemics beyond a biomedical event with potential rapid, dramatic, sweeping disruptions to the management, and conduct of everyday life. Not only the rate and pattern of contagion that threaten our sense of healthy living but also the safety measures put in place for containing the spread of the virus may require social distancing. Three different measures to counteract this pandemic situation have emerged, namely: i) vaccination, ii) herd immunity development, and iii) lockdown. As the first measure is not ready at this stage and the second measure is largely considered unreasonable on the account of the gigantic number of fatalities, a vast majority of countries have practiced the third option despite having a potentially immense adverse economic impact. To mitigate such an impact, this paper proposes a data driven dynamic clustering framework for moderating the adverse economic impact of COVID 19 flare up. Through an intelligent fusion of healthcare and simulated mobility data, we model lockdown as a clustering problem and design a dynamic clustering algorithm for localized lockdown by taking into account the pandemic, economic and mobility aspects. We then validate the proposed algorithms by conducting extensive simulations using the Malaysian context as a case study. The findings signify the promises of dynamic clustering for lockdown coverage reduction, reduced economic loss, and military unit deployment reduction, as well as assess potential impact of uncooperative civilians on the contamination rate. The outcome of this work is anticipated to pave a way for significantly reducing the severe economic impact of the COVID 19 spreading. Moreover, the idea can be exploited for potentially the next waves of corona virus related diseases and other upcoming viral life threatening calamities.
Gender Differentiated Parenting Revisited: Meta Analysis Reveals Very Few Differences in Parental Control of Boys and Girls
Venue: PloS one
Year: 2016

Although various theories describe mechanisms leading to differential parenting of boys and girls, there is no consensus about the extent to which parents do treat their sons and daughters differently. The last meta analyses on the subject were conducted more than fifteen years ago, and changes in gender specific child rearing in the past decade are quite plausible. In the current set of meta analyses, based on 126 observational studies (15,034 families) we examined mothers' and fathers' differential use of autonomy supportive and controlling strategies with boys and girls, and the role of moderators related to the decade in which the study was conducted, the observational context, and sample characteristics. Databases of Web of Science, ERIC, PsychInfo, Online Contents, Picarta, and Proquest were searched for studies examining differences in observed parental control of boys and girls between the ages of 0 and 18 years. Few differences were found in parents' use of control with boys and girls. Parents were slightly more controlling with boys than with girls, but the effect size was negligible (d 0.08) The effect was larger, but still small, in normative groups and in samples with younger children. No overall effect for gender differentiated autonomy supportive strategies was found (d 0.03) A significant effect of time emerged: studies published in the 1970s and 1980s reported more autonomy supportive strategies with boys than toward girls, but from 1990 onwards parents showed somewhat more autonomy supportive strategies with girls than toward boys. Taking into account parents' gender stereotypes might uncover subgroups of families where gender differentiated control is salient, but based on our systematic review of the currently available large data base we conclude that in general the differences between parenting of boys versus girls are minimal.
Production of fungal pectinase enzyme through solid substrate fermentation of estate waste for improvement of enzymatic oxidation and increasing the quality of CTC tea
Year: 2016

Enzymes, especially pectinase, plays an important role in the processing of tea that determines the quality and the color appearance of black tea. The main obstacle encountered in the application of enzymes in food processing in general, and in particular in the processing of black tea is the price of commercial enzyme that are still very expen sive, because it is still imported. Indonesia has a high fungal diversitythat is potential as producer of commercial pectinase enzyme. To reduce the cost of production, fermentation was done using solid waste of plantation that rich of pectin content such as cocoa pod husk that has not been optimally utilized. The research aimed to develop the production technology for pectinase enzymes of fungi through solid substrate fermentation for applications in the processing of CTC black tea. Research includes the isolation and selection of local superior fungi producing enzymes pectinase, optimiza tion of enzyme production by fungi isolates were selected through a solid substrate fermen tation using cocoa pod husk waste, production optimization included optimization of fermen tation time and substrate composition, enzyme extraction of fermented substrate, and appli cation of pectinase enzyme extracts in the processing of CTC black tea and sensory test of fermented tea. The results showed that it has been obtained isolates of Aspergillus niger on Pectinase Screening Agar Medium (PSAM) which was capable of producing pectinase enzyme on growing media of mix cocoa pod husk and rice bran with additional of enrichment media. The optimum conditions of pectinase production was obtained in the composition of cacao pod husk: rice bran (80:20 w/w) plus enrichment media, the incubation time of 9 days, which produced pectinase activity of 125 U/mL. Applications of pectinase on enzymatic oxidation of CTC tea proved that it was capable of raising the quality of the tea flavor, though the tea gradedid not change.

Analysis of local observability for feature localization in a maritime environment using an omnidirectional camera
Venue: 2007 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems
Year: 2007

Autonomous operation by a surface vehicle in a maritime setting requires that the surface vehicle detects non water objects, including shoreline, hazards to navigation, and other moving vessels. In order to assess the utility of an omnidirectional camera for detecting and localizing non water objects, we rigorously investigate observability of both stationary and moving features. For stationary features, we find that all but a small subset of the features are observable. For moving features, we show that an important class of feature and ASV trajectories are not observable.
Omstallningsavtal och arbetsloshetsforsakringen
Year: 2012

The Swedish unemployment benefits took shape during the late 1800s by an initiative from the trade unions. An unemployment insurance under state control became reality in 1935. The unemployment insurance was, during a couple of decades, virtually the only regular compensation an unemployed could receive during his or her unemployment. This changed during the 1960s. A complementary transition system began to slowly develop by the labour market parties. Employment transition agreements were concluded between the parties. These agreements also had certain benefits for the unemployed. These benefits were paid in addition to the unemployment benefits. In Sweden, there are certain rules that are intended to prevent an unemployed to receive too much money in benefits during times of unemployment. Of these rules the coordination rule in SS 31 ALF is the most important. Since the end of the 1960s, two different benefits can be handed to an unemployed, firstly the regular benefit from the unemployment insurance and secondly benefits from employment transition agreements. An interesting question to ask is how these benefits shall be coordinated with each other? And where can the insurance limit be drawn? To answer these questions it is of great importance to establish a clear application of SS 31 ALF. The relationship between employment transition agreement benefits and unemployment benefits/unemployment insurance is investigated in this thesis. The relationship will be examined both from a practical level and from a more comprehensive approach. How is a coordination between these two benefits supposed to work, according to the coordination rule in SS 31 ALF. Furthermore, the impact of employment transition agreements on the unemployment insurance will be investigated and discussed from an overall perspective.
Management of Cavernous Malformation of the Cervicomedullary Junction
Year: 2019

Cavernous malformations located at the cervicomedullary junction represent a challenging surgical problem. Counseling and treating patients with cavernous malformations of the cervicomedullary junction requires the surgeon to understand: (1) the natural history of cavernous malformations and the risks of treatments; (2) indications for treatment; (3) local neurovascular anatomy, including safe entry points to the brainstem; (4) bony anatomy and skull base approaches to the cranio vertebral junction; and (5) microsurgical techniques unique to the resection of cavernous malformations. Most lesions of the cranio vertebral junction can be reached safely through the retrosigmoid, far lateral suboccipital, and midline suboccipital approaches. The two point method is used in conjunction with knowledge of known safe entry points to the brain stem in order to choose the appropriate approach to a particular lesion. Advances in microsurgical instrumentation, navigation, neuromonitoring, brainstem anatomy, and our understanding of cavernous malformations have all contributed to safer microsurgery for these lesions. Microsurgical resection remains the mainstay of therapy for symptomatic cavernous malformations.
Investigating the link between transaction and computational costs in a blockchain environment
Venue: Int. J. Prod. Res.
Year: 2020

The research and thinking pertaining to blockchain have thus far focused on cryptocurrency and Bitcoin. However, there is increased interest in using the technology to solve operational challenges in manufacturing and service supply chains. In this study, we introduce a new implication of using blockchain technology and propose two unique contributions. First, we introduce the notion of computational costs (measured in units of gas) as an essential mechanism for completing operational transactions in the blockchain environment. Second, we discuss the use of smart contracts and their influence on operational transactions. To investigate the link between blockchain transaction and computational costs, this study uses an experimental methodology. We develop and implement a fully functional virtual public blockchain to store, validate, and maintain transactions. The methodology provides a process to measure the computational costs, frequency, and intensity of transactions. This research contributes to conceptual research on the blockchain implementation paradigm. Its novelty stems from the identification of computational costs for operational transactions and use of an experimental methodology. This research provides managers an insight into the design of smart contract transactions in a supply chain from a cost perspective.
X Band Feedback Type Miniaturized Oscillator Design With Low Phase Noise Based on Eighth Mode SIW Bandpass Filter
Venue: IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters
Year: 2021

A standard substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) based bandpass filter (BPF) suffers from bulkiness that limits its application in the implementation of compact size low phase noise oscillator. Instead, in this letter, an eighth mode SIW (EMSIW) resonator based BPF is utilized to realize a miniaturized low phase noise oscillator for <inline formula> <tex math notation="LaTeX"$X$ /tex math>/inline formula> band applications. Additionally, an equivalent circuit model of EMSIW BPF is presented. A compact feedback type oscillator prototype using EMSIW BPF is designed and fabricated for the first time with a circuit area of just 1092 mm<sup>2</sup> The experimental results of the prototype show a phase noise of 126.13 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from 9.97 GHz oscillation frequency with an output power of 3.17 dBm.
The Evolution of the Online Platform Economy: Evidence from Five Years of Banking Data
Venue: AEA Papers and Proceedings
Year: 2019

Measuring the gig economy has been challenging. Drawing on anonymized administrative banking data, we measure supply side participation in the online platform economy between 2013 and 2018. We find 2.3 million account holders who received payments from 128 transportation, non transport work, selling, and leasing platforms. Participation grew rapidly, particularly in the transportation sector. Average monthly revenues declined among drivers and increased among lessors even within metro areas. At least a third and likely more of the decline in transportation revenues is driven by decreases in hours worked. These findings raise important policy questions and motivate promising directions for future work.
