Public Governance Principles in General Education School Management of Latvia
2015
In contemporary world the effect of globalisation and information technologies cause transformational processes of states` public management that promote the application of new managament approaches and principles in public institution management.The changes in the public managament have effected and still effects processes of management also in education. The increase of school autonomy, a stronger focus on the process of education and its results created the need to expand the application of contemporary public management principles also in the managament of education institutions. The main goal of the report is to analyze the principles of public management and their implementation in th…
[Loyauté des transactions sur un marché relatif aux attributs de croyance : une analyse appliquée aux produits agro-alimentaires]
2001
International audience; Après avoir décliné la typologie des caractéristiques des produits en termes d'attributs de recherche, d'expérience et de croyance, les auteurs soulignent les mécanismes susceptibles d'assurer l'efficacité des transactions marchandes. Afin de cerner les enjeux liés à la loyauté des transactions dans le cas des attributs de croyance, ils montrent à l'aide d'un jeu simple, le caractère crucial des phases de définition, de vérification et de signalement, ces dernières nécessitant généralement l'intervention d'agents extérieurs à la transaction marchande.
Remote Sensing Geometric Corrections
2016
This article reviews the different aspects of geometrical processing of remote sensing data, discussing error sources and methods to determine the transformation from the image acquisition geometry to the output cartographic product. Resampling methods are discussed to transform the input image to the output geometry. Several practical examples of remote sensing platforms are discussed, including satellite cases and airborne sensors. Validation of the resulting geometrical processed products is also discussed. Spatial mosaicking techniques and multitemporal composites used to produce multisource integrated products and advanced applications are finally considered, keeping a perspective on t…
Accuracy of stereotactic coordinate transformation using a localisation frame and computed tomographic imaging
1999
The accuracy of coordinate transformation from a CT image to a stereotactic frame was investigated for stereotactic systems using a localisation frame and matrix-based coordinate transformation. The main source of error influencing calculation was input data, due to inaccurate calculation of the centres of the rods of the localisation frame in the CT image, and the propagation of this input error during subsequent matrix calculation. Systemic errors during matrix calculation do not exist, and rounding off errors were of subordinate importance compared to the input data error. The influence of input data error on coordinate transformation was studied by geometric methods, computer simulation…
Wild-type JAK2 secondary acute erythroleukemia developing after JAK2-V617F-mutated primary myelofibrosis.
2009
A 54-year-old female patient developed acute erythroleukemia after an 8-year course of primary myelofibrosis. The latter harbors the JAK2-V617F mutation and was treated with hydroxyurea and anagrelide. A bone marrow trephine biopsy disclosed 2 morphologically distinct areas of chronic primary myelofibrosis and acute erythroleukemia. Microdissection and a separate molecular pathological analysis was performed. Although the activating JAK2-V617F mutation was not maintained in blasts of acute erythroleukemia, it was detectable in the chronic phase of primary myelofibrosis, indicating that this mutation did not play a role in the leukemic transformation of erythroid cells.
New Inhabitants for the Re-use of Historical Territories in South-Eastern Sicily
2021
In spite of the multifaceted criticalities that characterise the Sicilian territory, South-Eastern Sicily appears to be of particular interest due to the active role that distinguishes it from the rest of the Island. The transformation processes taking place in South-Eastern Sicily, in fact, seem to be guided by new perspectives of sustainability, local development and good governance. The mix obtained from the extraordinary amount of tangible and intangible resources, from some favourable socio-cultural circumstances and from the creation of new transportation infrastructures, has contributed to promoting new forms of reuse of the historical building heritage by Italian and overseas invest…
Transformation of Loyalty to E-loyalty
2020
As everyday life moves to the Internet, many factors and components have come up, with the "e" and e-loyalty not an exception. The authors focused on the transformation of loyalty to e-loyalty. It is important to understand the main differences between consumer loyalty models and e-loyalty models in order to promote business development not only in the traditional environment but also in the online environment. Such research methods as comparative analysis, analysis of the scientific literature, content analysis were used. The main focus of the research was on comparing loyalty models in the traditional and e-environment to find out the peculiarities and main features of the e-environment. …
Intragenic G-quadruplex structure formed in the human CD133 and its biological and translational relevance.
2016
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been identified in several solid malignancies and are now emerging as a plausible target for drug discovery. Beside the questionable existence of CSCs specific markers, the expression of CD133 was reported to be responsible for conferring CSC aggressiveness. Here, we identified two G-rich sequences localized within the introns 3 and 7 of the CD133 gene able to form G-quadruplex (G4) structures, bound and stabilized by small molecules. We further showed that treatment of patient-derived colon CSCs with G4-interacting agents triggers alternative splicing that dramatically impairs the expression of CD133. Interestingly, this is strongly associated with a loss of C…
On the calculation of derived variables in the analysis of multivariate responses
1992
AbstractThe multivariate regression of a p × 1 vector Y of random variables on a q × 1 vector X of explanatory variables is considered. It is assumed that linear transformations of the components of Y can be the basis for useful interpretation whereas the components of X have strong individual identity. When p ≥ q a transformation is found to a new q × 1 vector of responses Y∗ such that in the multiple regression of, say, Y1∗ on X, only the coefficient of X1 is nonzero, i.e. such that Y1∗ is conditionally independent of X2, …, Xq, given X1. Some associated inferential procedures are sketched. An illustrative example is described in which the resulting transformation has aided interpretation.
How Followers Differing in Career Motivation Gain Career Profits from Transformational Leaders: A Longitudinal Moderated Mediation Model
2017
Although, transformational leadership is among the most thoroughly examined leadership theories, knowledge regarding its association with followers' career outcomes is still limited. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms explaining how transformational leaders affect their employees' career success are yet not well-understood. Based on theoretical assumptions about the processes involved in setting the goal of “making a career,” we propose an indirect effect of transformational leadership on subjective and objective career success via development opportunities that depends on the level of career motivation of employees. We conducted a longitudinal study with two measurement occasions separ…
