ENGLISH LANGUAGE FOR SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION: LEARNING FROM THE BOLOGNA PROCESS

2011

The Bologna Process aims to provide tools to connect the European national educational systems. The purpose of this paper is to analyze what we have learned and what challenges remain today. Since the beginning all participating countries had to agree on a comparable three cycle degree system for undergraduates (Bachelor degrees or Grades) and graduates (Master and PhD degrees) in order to create compatibility and comparability for achieving international competitiveness and a worldwide degree of attractiveness in higher education. The Bologna Declaration, originally signed by 29 countries, has now reached 47 countries, engaged in the process of creating a European Higher Education Area (EH…

Feasibility, limitations and potentiality of UHF-RFID passive implants

2012

Implanted RFID may play an important role in the personal Healthcare of next future. Antenna embedded into prosthesis or into other implanted medical devices could permit to monitor physiological and pathological processes, providing a natural interconnection to remote services. The big technical challenge is to establish a stable RFID link with the interior of the human body in spite of the high electromagnetic losses of the tissues. By using parametric electromagnetic models and some early result, it is here investigated the potentiality and limitation of the UHF implants with special attention to the body district, the overall mass, and the size of the antennas.

European expert opinion on the management of invasive candidiasis in adults

2011

Item does not contain fulltext This report discusses the present status of antifungal therapy and treatment options for candidaemia, considered by experts in the field in Europe. A conference of 26 experts from 13 European countries was held to discuss strategies for the treatment and prevention of invasive candidiasis, with the aim of providing a review on optimal management strategies. Published and unpublished comparative trials on antifungal therapy were analysed and discussed. Commonly asked questions about the management of candidaemia were selected, and possible responses to these questions were discussed. Panellists were then asked to respond to each question by using a touchpad ans…

Zr- Hf Fractionation During Water-Rock Interaction

2017

International audience; Zr and Hf are two elements having same ionic charge and similar ionic size at a given coordination number. Despite the Zr/Hf ratio is considered to be quite constant in meteorites and lithospheric rocks, seawaters collected from the surface down to varying depths of several Pacific Ocean stations reveal that the Zr/Hf ratio increases by one order of magnitude. Very recent studies have shown that, in both ground waters and lake waters, the Zr/Hf ratio is either higher or lower compared to the interacting minerals displaying a large variability in the distribution of these twin elements. In this communication the possible processes responsible for such a large fraction…

TheMiddle East economy seems ready to host in parallel both types, certainty that is proven by theUnited Arab Emirates, …

Ryt obrzezania w Gilgal (Joz 5,2-9) momentem odnowienia relacji narodu wybranego z JHWH

2020

Przymierzom biblijnym często towarzyszyły znaki, np. tęcza (Rdz 9,12–17), krew cielców (Wj 24,3–8) czy też chleb i wino (Łk 22,19–20). Zewnętrznym znakiem przymierza, jakie Bóg zawarł z Abrahamem, było obrzezanie (Rdz 17,9–14). Obrzęd ten został zaniedbany podczas czterdziestoletniej wędrówki przez pustynię. Jednak po przejściu Jordanu JHWH upomniał się o ten znak. Tak jak obrzezanie fizyczne było warunkiem wzięcia w posiadanie Ziemi Obiecanej, tak obrzezanie serca było warunkiem utrzymania tej ziemi w rękach Izraelitów oraz gwarantowało bezpieczeństwo i pomyślność. Niniejszy artykuł prezentuje szczegółową analizę perykopy Joz 5,2–9, w której jest mowa o obrzezaniu w Gilgal i o odnowieniu r…

Digital innovation & enterprise in the sharing economy: An action research agenda

2020

Abstract In this digital era, Digital Innovation & Enterprise have emerged as a possible prescription in the sharing economy. Scholars have noted that digital innovation is transforming the technological landscape, entrepreneurial practices, and the behaviours, attitudes, and beliefs of consumers across the globe. This research note serves three purposes. First, it introduces digital innovation and enterprise as a fruitful area of research in the sharing economy. Second, it extends the agenda set by Yoo, Henfridsson, and Lyytinen (2010) on “new organising logics of Digital Innovation” to propose contemporary research questions for scholarly collaboration. Third, it attempts to move forward …

Ontological Analysis of the Project Risk Management Concept ‘Risk’

2018

Abstract The aim of the current research series is to examine the definitions of the concept ‘risk’ and analyze the concepts used in the definitions of ‘risk’ in the sources of these definitions in order to perform the ontological analysis of the concept of ‘risk’. Ontological and epistemological analysis of the concepts in the definition of the concept ‘risk’ was used to answer the question what ‘risk’ means in project management. This investigation represents a part of the research series where the ontological, epistemological and methodological analysis of project risk is performed with the aim to improve risk registers and risk management as a whole. In the previous studies the author a…

On the relationship between knowledge creation and economic performance

2015

An empirical two-equation dynamic panel-data model system with fixed effects is proposed to analyze the relationship between knowledge creation and economic performance across regions over time. Estimates of the model for Spanish regions show that (i) knowledge creation depends on local R&D effort, on the amount of knowledge in use, and on knowledge creation in neighboring regions; and (ii) assimilation of new knowledge depends on local knowledge creation and on assimilation of knowledge in neighboring regions. Both processes include region-specific context fixed effects and region-specific time effects, representing region-specific dynamic influences. The results imply that (a) efficie…
