Consequences of the Digital Economy : Transformation of the Growth Concept
2018
The digital economy is transforming the traditional concepts of economic growth.The recent reversal trend in GDP growth of ICT leaders can be attributed to effective utilization of soft innovation resources in Finland and adherence to traditional resources in Singapore.Confronting a productivity decline in the digital economy, global information and communication technology (ICT) leaders are transforming business models into those with uncaptured GDP creation. This can be attributed tothe harnessing soft innovation resourcesagainst a productivity decline. This in turn activates a self-propagating function and induces supra-functionality beyond economic value corresponding to a shift in peop…
Neirotrofo faktoru ekspresija streptozocīna - Alcheimera slimības modelī ar muscimolu
2016
1906. gadā vācu psihiatrs un neiropatologs Aloīzs Alcheimers pirmo reizi aprakstīja 56 gadu vecumā mirušu pacienti, kura mira neskaidras slimības dēļ, pēdējo četru gadu laikā strauji zaudējot atmiņu un dažādas iemaņas. Laika gaitā, analizējot medicīniskos pierakstus un pētot mirušās pacientes smadzenes, tika noteikta amiloīdo plātņu un neirofibrilāro mezglu esamība smadzenēs, kas tika nosaukta par Alcheimera slimību (Engstrom, 2007). Alcheimera slimība ir progresējoši smadzeņu darbības traucējumi, kā rezultātā smadzenes pakāpeniski „noārdās”. Visbiežāk tā rodas cilvēkiem 65-70 gadu vecumā. Slimības attīstības gaitā attīstās negatīvas izmaiņas atmiņā, domāšanā, dažādās darbībās un uzvedībā, …
Prolonging in utero-like oxygenation after birth diminishes oxidative stress in the lung and brain of mice pups☆
2013
Background Fetal-to-neonatal transition is associated with oxidative stress. In preterm infants, immaturity of the antioxidant system favours supplemental oxygen-derived morbidity and mortality. Objectives To assess if prolonging in utero-like oxygenation during the fetal-to-neonatal transition limits oxidative stress in the lung and brain, improving postnatal adaptation of mice pups. Material and methods Inspiratory oxygen fraction (FiO2) in pregnant mice was reduced from 21% (room air) to 14% (hypoxia) 8–12 h prior to delivery and reset to 21% 6–8 h after birth. The control group was kept at 21% during the procedure. Reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione and its precursors [γ-glut…
Głodowanie jako nieszczęśliwe zrządzenie losu, czyli o tym, jak chłop musiał sobie radzić na przednówku i podczas klęsk żywiołowych
2018
W życiu najuboższych warstw społecznych przez całe wieki, w zasadzie aż do XX stulecia, nieodłączną częścią egzystencji był niedobór pożywienia, który w okresie przednówka i w czasie klęsk żywiołowych i nieurodzaju przybierał na sile. Ludność – co jakiś czas dotykana przez zły los – musiała sobie radzić i do swojego menu wprowadzać takie składniki, które pozwoliłyby zaspokoić albo chociaż oszukać głód. Tekst traktuje o losie chłopskim oraz o sposobach zaspokajania głodu w obliczu niedostatku, podaje się tu przykłady tzw. głodowych potraw, których składniki często były niejadalne albo wręcz trujące.
Browsing hinders the regeneration of broadleaved trees in uneven-aged forest management in southern Finland
2020
Uneven-aged forest management has attained increasing popularity. It may benefit biodiversity, buffer against pests and abiotic damages, decrease runoff from clearcuts and improve recreational values. We studied how gap cuttings and single-tree selection cuttings influence browsing damage in spruce-dominated forests in south-central Finland. Overall, browsing damage was especially frequent in aspen and rowan, but also in birch. The larger the basal area left in harvesting, the lower the browsing pressure on birch and rowan; neither the harvesting method nor the seedling density had an independent effect on browsing damage. Although larger tree retention levels may reduce browsing damage, th…

Humanoid Cognitive Robots That Learn by Imitating: Implications for Consciousness Studies.
2018
While the concept of a conscious machine is intriguing, producing such a machine remains controversial and challenging. Here we describe how our work on creating a humanoid cognitive robot that learns to perform tasks via imitation learning relates to this issue. Our discussion is divided into three parts. First, we summarize our previously-detailed framework for advancing the understanding of the nature of phenomenal consciousness. This framework is based on identifying computational correlates of consciousness. Second, we describe a cognitive robotic system that we recently developed that learns to perform tasks by imitating human-provided demonstrations. This humanoid robot uses cause-ef…
Anomalous and normal Hall effect in hydrogenated amorphous Si prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition
2010
The double sign anomaly of the Hall coefficient has been studied in p -doped and n -doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition and annealed up to 500 °C. Dark conductivity as a function of temperature has been measured, pointing out a conduction mechanism mostly through the extended states. Anomalous Hall effect has been observed only in the as-deposited n -doped film, disappearing after annealing at 500 °C, while p -doped samples exhibit normal Hall effect. When Hall anomaly is present, a larger optical band gap and a greater Raman peak associated with Si-H bond are measured in comparison with the cases of normal Hall effect. The Hall anomaly wi…
Desigualdades de género en el trabajo. La brecha de género en el empleo y la distribución de las tareas de cuidado
2004
This paper focuses on the factors contributing to gender inequality in the distribution of paid work and unpaid work in homes. The European Union Household Panel for Spain is used to empirically test the relative impact of such factors and their contribution to gender inequality. Three indicators are considered: intra-household inequality in employment status, the gender gap in paid employment and the ratio between unpaid care activities and time spent in paid employment. Personal characteristics of the female partner such as age and education have a significant impact on these three indicators. Household characteristics such as the difference in income and in time devoted to caring activit…
