Augmented context based on prediction for efficient knowledge reuse of business knowledge in design
2017
Works on the design context augmentation in product design, makes it possible to make awareness designers on their choice in the design for assembly. The presented approach will conclude on the method to develop a informatic system, based on case studies of mechanical design. The purpose of the project is to capture the design intent, in order to provide useful assistance to stakeholders, such as design support, decision making, verification/validation, and data structuring.
Factors Influencing the Usage Behavior of Digitalized Innovation Environments in Companies : A Qualitative in-Depth Analysis
2021
Digital Innovation Environments (DIE) as an umbrella term for facilities such as FabLabs, Makerspaces and Innovation Laboratories are already well known in the private and academic sectors. We focus on exploring the business aspects of DIEs and their role in digital transformation and creation of new opportunities for companies to increase their knowledge transfer and innovation capabilities. This research is dedicated to factors influencing the usage behavior of company employees of a DIE. From seven guided interviews, a total of 27 influencing factors in seven topics were identified through successive in-depth analysis and criterion-guided interpretation. These factors show the complexity…
Average Age of Information in Wireless Powered Mobile Edge Computing System
2022
Mobile edge computing (MEC) has been recognized as a promising technique to provide enhanced computation services for low-power wireless devices at the network edge. How to evaluate the timeliness of the task and data delivery is critical for the development of MEC applications. Considering a wireless powered MEC system, in this letter we study the average age of information (AoI), which is a crucial performance metric to measure the freshness of information. Specifically, in the considered system, a sensor node harvests energy from an energy transmitter and transmits computation tasks to the MEC server. The charging time of the sensor node’s capacitor, the waiting time and service time at …
Difusión agronómica y protagonismo de las élites en los orígenes de la agricultura contemporánea : Valencia, 1840-60
1999
Se analizan aquí algunos mecanismos de difusión de conocimientos agronómicos en una zona agraria de la periferia europea caracterizada por los elevados rendimientos del suelo. Se estudia también el papel de las élites rurales en este proceso, destacando la función de legitimación social que ese papel tenia en la sociedad liberal del siglo XIX. Los resultados muestran que la innovación técnica no tuvo una única procedencia: se recibió información desde la Europa más avanzada pero también desde otros continentes, y se sistematizaron y difundieron técnicas empíricas ya conocidas en el propio país. This paper analyses some of the processes to spread agricultural knowledge in an agricultural are…
Parte III. Cap. IX. I Fattori della produzione agricola.
2021
The process of modernization and innovation in the agricultural sector requires careful analysis regarding financial resources and the need to strengthen economic structures within it. The specific discipline of agricultural credit is different from that provided for other productive activities. The "naturalness" of the agricultural product is reflected in the incidence of credit risk. These economic evaluations, which are at the basis of what is known as agricultural exceptionalism, have repercussions on the legal system of access to credit, requiring, for example, a differentiated system of evaluation of creditworthiness.

Geochemistry, Sr–Nd–Pb isotopes and geochronology of amphibole- and mica-bearing lamprophyres in northwestern Iran: Implications for mantle wedge het…
2015
Highlights • Northwestern Iranian lamprophyres have alkaline and calc-alkaline nature. • Studied lamprophyres are emplaced during Late Cretaceous to Late Miocene time. • Lamprophyres originated from different metasomatised lithospheric mantle. Abstract Lamprophyres of different age showing distinctive mineralogy, geochemistry and isotopic ratios are exposed in northwestern Iran. They can be divided into Late Cretaceous sannaite, Late Oligocene-Early Miocene camptonite (amphibole-bearing) and Late Miocene minette (mica-bearing) and spessartite (amphibole-bearing) lamprophyres. Sannaites have high-Ti amphibole along with high-Ti and Al clinopyroxene, and they are characterised by homogeneous …
Knowledge of Rare Respiratory Diseases among Paediatricians and Medical School Students.
2020
Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) and primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are underdiagnosed rare diseases showing a median diagnostic delay of five to ten years, which has negative effects on patient prognosis. Lack of awareness and education among healthcare professionals involved in the management of these patients have been suggested as possible causes. Our aim was to assess knowledge of these diseases among paediatricians and medical school students to determine which knowledge areas are most deficient. A survey was designed with questions testing fundamental aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of AATD and PCD. A score equal to or greater than 50% of the maximum score was set as th…
Effects of undergrowth removal and edge proximity on ground beetles and vascular plants in urban boreal forests
2019
Urban forests are regularly managed for human safety and esthetic reasons, but they are crucial habitat for many species. Removals of undergrowth occur commonly in these forests, yet the ecological consequences of these operations are poorly understood. We sampled ground beetles (Coleoptera, Carabidae) and vascular plants along 20-m edge gradients in Finnish urban forests, in five stands treated 0.5–2.5 years earlier with undergrowth removal and in five untreated stands. We hypothesized that undergrowth removal and edge proximity would benefit opportunistic and open-habitat species, whereas shady-habitat species would be affected negatively. (1) Regarding carabids, diversity and evenness in…
The complementary structural studies of the double metal cyanide type catalysts for the ring opening polymerization of the oxiranes
2016
Przeprowadzono badania strukturalne katalizatorów dimetalocyjankowych (DMC) z dwoma rodzajami ligandów organicznych. Zaproponowano wyjaśnienie etapów przebiegu krzywych otrzymanych metodą analizy termograwimetrycznej i różnicowej kalorymetrii skaningowej (TG/DSC) badanych katalizatorów. Wykazano obecność kilku stopni związania ligandów w kompleksach DMC. Na podstawie wyników badań z wykorzystaniem absorpcji rentgenowskiej (XAS) stwierdzono, że centrum aktywne katalizatora stanowi atom cynku. W bezpośrednim sąsiedztwie atomów Zn wykryto obecność atomów Cl, natomiast w najbliższych sferach koordynacyjnych atomu Zn nie wykryto atomów tlenu.
