Hadronic contributions to (g−2)(g-2) of the leptons and to the effective fine structure constant α(MZ2)\alpha(M_Z^2)

The hadronic contributions to the anomalous magnetic moments of the leptons and to the effective fine structure constant at the Z-mass are reevaluated using all presently available $e^+ e^-$ data.Comment: 36 pages, 11 Postscript figures, available at ftp://129.129.40.58/pub/preprints/vapogm2.ps.g

ViaRODOS: Monitoring and Visualisation of Current Traffic Situation on Highways

Part 5: Industrial Management and Other Applications; International audience; This paper describes methods of traffic monitoring based on on-line retrieval of big data both from cars equipped with GPS devices and stationary sensor systems. Various visualization methods and styles of presentation are discussed with focus on linear structure of gathered traffic data along observed routes. Visualized data is available via interactive web interface which uses modern vector graphic standard and enables presentation of as much information as possible with common, well-known traffic symbolism. Document type: Part of book or chapter of boo

ANTAREX - AutoTuning and adaptivity approach for energy efficient eXascale HPC systems

The main goal of the ANTAREX project is to express by a Domain Specific Language (DSL) the application self-adaptivity and to runtime manage and autotune applications for green and heterogeneous High Performance Computing (HPC) systems up to the Exascale level. Key innovations of the project include the introduction of a separation of concerns between self-adaptivity strategies and application functionalities. The DSL approach will allow the definition of energy-efficiency, performance, and adaptivity strategies as well as their enforcement at runtime through application autotuning and resource and power management

Comprehensive insight into the human route of food safety culture in Central and Eastern Europe

This investigation provides an important insight into the Central and Eastern European food industry, beyond traditional food safety management and reflects on its food safety (FS) climate or the human route of its FS culture. Investigation was conducted in 10 Central and Eastern European countries involving more than 500 food companies. Overall FS climate was assessed as good. The availability of infrastructure was perceived the same in all countries although \u201cresources\u201d was the lowest scored climate component. Uncertainty avoiding national cultures had a stronger preference towards written FS procedures and instructions. FS climate was better assessed in bigger companies because small companies observed weaker availability of resources, smaller number of procedures and instructions and reduced risk awareness. FS communication and commitment were not affected by company size. The share of food companies without FS system was five times higher in small compared to big companies. No effect of FS management level or riskiness level on FS climate scores was apparent. Food companies seemed to avoid problems in cooperation and trust between FS leaders and other employees, since they have perceived FS climate similarly. The strongest FS climate segmentation in Central and Eastern Europe food companies was observed in terms of the EU membership status. EU operating food companies managed to develop a very good and distinctive FS climate, with better-perceived leadership, communication, commitment, resources and risk awareness than non-EU food companies. Transitional economic environment of non-EU countries have undesirably influenced the organisational and technological support in their companies and employees perceptions of FS climate
