Continuous Requirements Risk Profiling in Information Systems Development
2015
With the increasing adoption of agile, lean, and iterative development methods, information systems development (ISD) has become continuous, meaning that system development moves rapidly from release to release. This means that work practices and challenges that practitioners face have changed. Despite these changes, requirements development is still critical in ISD. However, IS literature is silent on how to manage requirements-related risks in the practice of continuous IS development. To fill this gap, we propose a continuous requirements risk profiling method. The study is informed by design science research methodology, and we apply focus group interviews and a Delphi study for data co…
Using VIS/NIR and IR spectral cameras for detecting and separating crime scene details
2012
Detecting invisible details and separating mixed evidence is critical for forensic inspection. If this can be done reliably and fast at the crime scene, irrelevant objects do not require further examination at the laboratory. This will speed up the inspection process and release resources for other critical tasks. This article reports on tests which have been carried out at the University of Jyväskylä in Finland together with the Central Finland Police Department and the National Bureau of Investigation for detecting and separating forensic details with hyperspectral technology. In the tests evidence was sought after at an assumed violent burglary scene with the use of VTT's 500-900 nm wave…
The relationship between context, structure, and processes with outcomes of 6 regional diabetes networks in Europe
2018
BackgroundWhile health service provisioning for the chronic condition Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) often involves a network of organisations and professionals, most evidence on the relationships between the structures and processes of service provisioning and the outcomes considers single organisations or solo practitioners. Extending Donabedian's Structure-Process-Outcome (SPO) model, we investigate how differences in quality of life, effective coverage of diabetes, and service satisfaction are associated with differences in the structures, processes, and context of T2D services in six regions in Finland, Germany, Greece, Netherlands, Spain, and UK.MethodsData collection consisted of: a) systemat…
Etude de l’implication de l'endocytose à clathrine dans les réactions de défense déclenchées par la cryptogéine chez le tabac
2012
La cryptogéine est un éliciteur protéique des réactions de défense chez le tabac sécrété par l’oomycète Phytophthora cryptogea. Son interaction avec un récepteur encore non identifié de la membrane plasmique déclenche une cascade d’événements de signalisation qui conduisent à une reprogrammation génique, à la diffusion d’un signal conférant une résistance systémique et, ultimement, à la mort des cellules directement exposées à cet éliciteur. Notre équipe avait précédemment mis en évidence une stimulation de la formation de vésicules d’endocytose quelques minutes après l’élicitation. Des études de microscopie électronique et d’inhibition pharmacologique avait permis d’émettre l’hypothèse que…

Six points à retenir sur les déterminants de la "juste" portion [expertise pour Nestlé]
2021
Membres du comité d'experts ayant participé à la réflexion :Sandrine Monnery-Patris ; Pascale Hebel ; Ghislain Grodard ; Thibaut de Saint Pol et Marie-Josèphe Amiot-Carlin Référence interne : EAPP; Nestlé a initié une réflexion avec un comité d'experts pluridisciplinaires indépendants pour identifier et comprendre les déterminants de la portion, levier essentiel, mais complexe, pour réguler la prise alimentaire.La synthèse de leurs réflexions s’articule en 6 points clés, soutenus par une analyse de la littérature scientifique, qui sont : • Une portion ni normée, ni injonctive• Une portion réaliste• Une portion personnalisée• Une portion associée à l’hédonisme• Une portion qui intègre les as…
El crimen de agresión : ¿es posible su persecución judicial internacional?
2021
The paper analyses the crime of aggression, in particular the recent activation of the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court over it and the main obstacles to its effective prosecution, taking into consideration the low number of States Parties that have ratified the Amendments that regulate it
Assessing travel time-based accessibility to outdoor ice skating fields for children in Helsinki during the COVID-19 pandemic
2022
This paper was written within the research project called “Equality in suburban physical activity environments, YLLI” (in Finnish: Yhdenvertainen liikunnallinen lähiö, YLLI) funded by the Suburban Programme 2020–2022 (in Finnish: Lähiöohjelma 2020–2022, decision number VN/10837/2020). Informal sport is central to Finnish children’s leisure and physical activity time. This paper aims to build a better understanding of the travel time-based accessibility to informal sports facilities, specifically to ice skating fields, for children and adolescents (aged 7–19) in the city of Helsinki. We focused on the winter of 2020–2021 because COVID-19 restrictions on indoor activities resulted in ice skat…
Expression and characterization of the human sweet taste receptor expressed in a mammalian inducible cell line
2018
International audience; Sweet taste perception is mediated by a heterodimeric receptor composed of the two distinct protein subunits, TAS1R2 and TAS1R3. TAS1R2 and TAS1R3 subunits are members of the small family of class C GPCRs. Class C GPCRs share a large N-terminal domain (NTD) linked to the heptahelical transmembrane domain by a cysteine-rich region. TAS1R2/TAS1R3 is the primary receptor for a diverse range of sweet compounds including natural sugars, sweet amino acids, artificial sweeteners and plant sweet-tasting proteins. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms that govern receptor – ligand interactions and the relative contribution of the two subunits to the detection of swe…
