    Advanced Computer Program Models : A Talking Textbook Based on Three Languages

    The purpose of this dissertation was to develop a learning instrument, to be used by programmers preparing for the Data Processing Management Association Test as a self study book, or by college business programming and computer science students who have completed a course in data processing and a course in programming a higher level language. The mathematical ability requirement was minimized by developing the algorithms in parallel with the programs. The learner should experience _emphasis in the following .areas: l. The type of activities required to pass the DPMA test (the programming part) 2. Data Structures 3. Fortran (at the level of the DPMA test) I 4. RPG (at the level of the DPMA test) 5. Flow chart reading and writing Fortran and RPG (Report Program Generator) languages were used, since their proficiency is required for the DPMA test; however a subset of IBM Basic Assembler language was used, because the author believed that a person who is more than superficially interested in computers should demonstrate a proficiency with a machine language. An important part of this method of presentation are the cassette recordings which allow the learner to progress outside the classroom. The recordings plus the hard copy of the actual programs, diminished in size, give the learner material which he can move to any location and study without the presence of the instructor

    The landscape of combination therapies against glioblastoma:From promises to challenges

    Get PDF
    We demonstrate in this thesis how new targets can be identified and highlight the challenges that lie in front of us when trying to translate these steps toward the clinic. We conclude that the blood-brain barrier, PD/PK of drugs, and therapy resistance are still major challenges and explain the limited improvement in treatment options for patients with GBM. First, GBM is a diffuse glioma located in the brain where the blood-brain barrier prevents the crossing of drugs and thereby limits the efficacy of treatment. Second, inter- and intratumoral heterogeneity have been observed in GBM leading to different cellular subpopulations with distinctive genetic profiles. Hence, treating these subpopulations with targeted drugs allows until now still survival of certain subpopulations that are not sensitive to this treatment. Lastly, therapy resistance is often seen in GBM patients and is probably related to intratumoral heterogeneity, but the intrinsic molecular mechanism is still not fully understood. Together they lead to the inevitable recurrence of the tumor

    Semantic discovery and reuse of business process patterns

    Get PDF
    Patterns currently play an important role in modern information systems (IS) development and their use has mainly been restricted to the design and implementation phases of the development lifecycle. Given the increasing significance of business modelling in IS development, patterns have the potential of providing a viable solution for promoting reusability of recurrent generalized models in the very early stages of development. As a statement of research-in-progress this paper focuses on business process patterns and proposes an initial methodological framework for the discovery and reuse of business process patterns within the IS development lifecycle. The framework borrows ideas from the domain engineering literature and proposes the use of semantics to drive both the discovery of patterns as well as their reuse

    Aquaculture Perspective of Multi-Use Sites in the Open Ocean: The Untapped Potential for Marine Resources in the Anthropocene

    Get PDF
    This volume addresses the potential for combining large-scale marine aquaculture of macroalgae, molluscs, crustaceans, and finfish, with offshore structures, primarily those associated with energy production, such as wind turbines and oil-drilling platforms. The volume offers a comprehensive overview and includes chapters on policy, science, engineering, and economic aspects to make this concept a reality. The compilation of chapters authored by internationally recognized researchers across the globe addresses the theoretical and practical aspects of multi-use, and presents case studies of research, development, and demonstration-scale installations in the US and EU
