Recent debate and associated initiatives dealing with public sector innovation have mainly aimed at improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the delivery of public services and improved transparency and user friendliness. Beyond typical administrative reforms, innovation is expected to help address societal challenges such as the aging population, inclusion, health care, education, public saf

The normal Auger electron spectrum of the O-2 molecule is assigned in detail on the basis of ab initio valence configuration interaction (CI) wavefunctions. Potential energy curves of the ground state, the core-ionized states and the doubly charged final states are calculated and Auger decay rates are obtained with the one-centre approximation. Using the lifetime vibrational interference method, b

Electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) and cathodoluminescence (CL) have proved during the past few years to be tremendous tools to study surface plasmons in metallic nanoparticles, thanks to an extremely high spatial resolution combined with a broad spectral range. Despite their apparent close resemblance, qualitative differences between EELS and CL have been theoretically as well as experiment

FKBP12 serves a dual role as a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase and as a modulator of several cell signaling pathways. The macrolide FK506 is a transition-state analog of the catalyzed reaction and displaces FKBP12 from its natural target proteins. We compared the conformational exchange dynamics of the backbone and methyl-bearing side chains of FKBP12 in the free and FK506-bound states using N

Using lateral transshipments can be beneficial in order to improve service levels and to reduce system costs. This paper deals with a single-echelon inventory system with two identical locations. Demands are generated by stationary and independent Poisson processes. In general, if a demand occurs at a location and there is no stock on hand, the demand is assumed to be backordered or lost. However,

I will propose some ideas about such pictures claiming to be self-demonstrating or selfillustrating, mostly using some classical anatomy illustrations. Based on these you may say that the anatomy seems to create a remarkable, realistic pictorial code, which casts together in one single, selfdemonstrating shape, an object of knowledge with the properties of the natural object itself. This is the pa

Objective. Patients with chronic pancreatitis and intractable pain may be candidates for surgical intervention and various types of surgery have been described over time. The objective of this study was to describe long-term outcome following pancreaticojejunostomy in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Material and methods. Thirty-two patients with chronic pancreatitis underwent lateral pancreati

In recent years, smog has become one of greatest challenges in China and many other countries. However, there are limited attentions of measuring public environment awareness of air pollution and the relations between public environmental awareness and smog prevention in a Chinese context. This study was designed to investigate the facts of public environmental awareness in a typical city of China

Neural networks with internal feedback from the hidden nodes to theinput [Elman, 1990 are developed for prediction of the auroralelectrojet index AE from solar wind data. Unlike linear and nonlinearautoregressive moving-average (ARMA) models, such networks are free todevelop their own internal representation of the recurrent statevariables. Further, they do not incorporate an explicit memory for p

The article investigates conceptions of freemasonry and civil society in the eighteenth century periodical Journal für Freymaurer (1784-1786).

Detta bidrag vid en internationell konferens i Heidelberg 2001 utgår från Sverigeräkningen 1999 och ställer frågan vad en religiös minoritet är, relaterat till den "passiva" majoriteten och de "aktiva" minoriteterna. Den skandinaviska miljöns väg från begränsad tolerans till religiös pluralism leder till ett avsnitt om civilreligion och religiösa minoriteter. Därefter behandlas den svenska riksdag
