Retrospective study of the correlation of serum potassium concentrations and the findings of heart auscultation in calves with neonatal diarrhea
A retrospective study was conducted of clinical records of calves with
neonatal diarrhea up to the age of 14 days concerning certain aspects of
blood potassium concentration and heart rate and rhythm. No correlation
could be found between heart rates and serum potassium concentrations.
Bradycardia was no indicator of hyperkalemia, nor could hyperkalemia be
ruled out in animals with tachycardia. Cardiac arrhythmias were not
associated with pronounced kyperkalemia, and did not indicate a poor
prognosis. It was concluded that, at least in clinical cases of neonatal calf
diarrhea, heart rate and rhythm are subject to complex influences and yield
no information on the actual serum potassium concentration in a particular
animal
Graph-based task libraries for robots: generalization and autocompletion
In this paper, we consider an autonomous robot that persists
over time performing tasks and the problem of providing one additional
task to the robot's task library. We present an approach to generalize
tasks, represented as parameterized graphs with sequences, conditionals,
and looping constructs of sensing and actuation primitives. Our approach
performs graph-structure task generalization, while maintaining task ex-
ecutability and parameter value distributions. We present an algorithm
that, given the initial steps of a new task, proposes an autocompletion
based on a recognized past similar task. Our generalization and auto-
completion contributions are eective on dierent real robots. We show
concrete examples of the robot primitives and task graphs, as well as
results, with Baxter. In experiments with multiple tasks, we show a sig-
nicant reduction in the number of new task steps to be provided

TVET Capacity Development in Afghanistan: Introducing Self-Reliant Internship in In-Service Technical Teacher Training at the Technical Teacher Training Institute (TTTI)
This paper describes the approach applied to the introduction of self-reliant internship into the in-service TVET (Technical Vocational Education and Training) teacher training at the Technical Teacher Training Institute (TTTI) in Afghanistan. As data show in 2014, Afghan TVET teachers neither meet the legal requirements set by the government (Bachelor degree) nor have contacts to or work experiences in private or public sector companies. They have no knowledge of the working requirements they are preparing their students for. Consequently, in-service teacher training at the TTTI has to provide it\u27s learners with knowledge and skills in accordance with the market requirements. Thus, at the TTTI Capacity Building is focusing among others on the multifaceted interdependent relationship between teacher-student-company in order to empower teachers to be able to contribute to the employability of their students. In this respect TTTI\u27s in-service teacher training foresees the teacher\u27s participation in a private or public sector self-reliant internship to benefit from the expertise of companies\u27 work force and employers and actualize their understanding for the world of work. Afghan TVET teachers completing successful the TTTI in-service training are able to train many cohorts of students for the labor market or self-employment with the gained competences. Two subsequent cohorts of TTTI trainees - government employed TVET teachers undergoing in-service teacher training - have been participating for their first time in self-reliant internship in 2013 and 2014. According to the findings, recommendations are given for using the approach of introducing internship in in-service training for TVET teacher capacity building
