SMIL State: an architecture and implementation for adaptive time-based web applications
In this paper we examine adaptive time-based web applications (or presentations). These are interactive presentations where time dictates which parts of the application are presented (providing the major structuring paradigm), and that require interactivity and other dynamic adaptation. We investigate the current technologies available to create such presentations and their shortcomings, and suggest a mechanism for addressing these shortcomings. This mechanism, SMIL State, can be used to add user-defined state to declarative time-based languages such as SMIL or SVG animation, thereby enabling the author to create control flows that are difficult to realize within the temporal containment model of the host languages. In addition, SMIL State can be used as a bridging mechanism between languages, enabling easy integration of external components into the web application. Finally, SMIL State enables richer expressions for content control. This paper defines SMIL State in terms of an introductory example, followed by a detailed specification of the State model. Next, the implementation of this model is discussed. We conclude with a set of potential use cases, including dynamic content adaptation and delayed insertion of custom content such as advertisements. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC
Pengaruh Bauran Pemasaran Terhadap Keputusan Pembelian Rumah (Survei Pada Konsumen Perumahan Blukid Residence Sidoarjo)
Results of the F test in this study showed sig F is equal to 0.000 <0.05, which means the marketing mix consists of product, price, location, and joint promotion has a significant influence on purchasing decisions. Based on the results of t-test can be seen that the variable product, price, location, and promotion significantly influence purchasing decisions. T-test results also showed that the location of the variable t has a value and greatest beta coefficient. So the location variables most strongly influence compared to other variables the variable location has a dominant influence on the purchase decision structure. Adjusted R Square value in this study was 0.560. This indicates that approximately 56% of purchase decisions can be explained by the four independent variables, namely Product, Price, Location, Promotion. When the remaining 44% is influenced by other variables not examined in this study
Optical excitations in hexagonal nanonetwork materials
Optical excitations in hexagonal nanonetwork materials, for example,
Boron-Nitride (BN) sheets and nanotubes, are investigated theoretically. The
bonding of BN systems is positively polarized at the B site, and is negatively
polarized at the N site. There is a permanent electric dipole moment along the
BN bond, whose direction is from the B site to the N site. When the exciton
hopping integral is restricted to the nearest neighbors, the flat band of the
exciton appears at the lowest energy. The higher optical excitations have
excitation bands similar to the electronic bands of graphene planes and carbon
nanotubes. The symmetry of the flat exciton band is optically forbidden,
indicating that the excitons related to this band will show quite long lifetime
which will cause strong luminescence properties.Comment: 4 pages; 3 figures; proceedings of "XVIth International Winterschool

Fragmentation pathways of nanofractal structures on surface
We present a detailed systematical theoretical analysis of the post-growth
processes occurring in nanofractals grown on surface. For this study we
developed a method which accounts for the internal dynamics of particles in a
fractal. We demonstrate that particle diffusion and detachment controls the
shape of the emerging stable islands on surface. We consider different
scenarios of fractal post-growth relaxation and analyze the time evolution of
the island's morphology. The results of our calculations are compared with
available experimental observations, and experiments in which the post-growth
relaxation of deposited nanostructures can be probed are suggested.Comment: 34 pages, 11 figure
Integrated care and the working record
By default, many discussions and specifications of electronic health records or integrated care records often conceptualize the record as a passive information repository. This article presents data from a case study of work in a medical unit in a major metropolitan hospital. It shows how the clinicians tailored, re-presented and augmented clinical information to support their own roles in the delivery of care for individual patients. This is referred to as the working record: a set of complexly interrelated clinician-centred documents that are locally evolved, maintained and used to support delivery of care in conjunction with the more patient-centred chart that will be stored in the medical records department on the patient’s discharge. Implications are drawn for how an integrated care record could support the local tailorability and flexibility that underpin this working record and hence underpin practice
