CSM-180 - An SQL Interface for the IFS/2 Knowledge-Baseserver: Release 2

A version of the IFS/2, known as the IFS/Q, has been designed to give direct support to SQL programs running on a host computer. This report gives detailed specifications of one external and two internal software and firmware interfaces which have been created for IFS/Q. Release 2 differs from Release 1 mainly in the Interface B details (see section 4). We have also tidied up the IFS/Q library procedures, which are described in a companion document - (see ref 9); for convenience this is included as Appendix B to this report

The fallacy of comparing diagnostic radiation with background radiation; and the need to learn from past mistakes

The subject of radiation exposure for diagnostic purposes is currently a ‘hot’ topic, and it is appropriate that the debate around this issue is given exposure in the pages of the SAJR. I would like to comment on a few of the points raised by Dr Tipler in his article that appeared in the June 2010 SAJR

Radiologists and radiographers must remain the custodians of diagnostic radiation

Audit senior modeling fallibility:The effects of reduced error strain and enhanced error-related self-efficacy on audit juniors’ responses to self-discovered errors

This paper examines the relationship between audit seniors discussing their own experiences with committing and correcting errors (modeling fallibility), and audit juniors’ thinking about errors and error communication (openly discussing their own self-discovered errors). The paper investigates the direct relationship between senior modeling fallibility and juniors’ responses, and whether the relationship is mediated through error strain and error-related self-efficacy. Survey data from 266 audit juniors from two Big 4 Canadian accounting firms showed a direct positive association between audit senior modeling fallibility and audit juniors’ thinking about errors, and error communication. This relationship is positively mediated through error-related self-efficacy. We also found that the relationship is mediated by error strain. However, although audit senior modeling fallibility was associated with reduced error strain, error strain was positively related to both thinking about errors and error communication, contrary to our hypothesis. The paper discusses the theoretical and practical implications of these results

Biodegradation of oily wastes and sludges

Improper disposal of petroleum hydrocarbons can cause hazardous effects to both the environment and life. Used and unused oils from several sources contribute to the problems of oil contamination in the environment. Physico-chemical treatment methods are not completely effective as the emission of secondary wastes such as wastes gases and sludges are in the concern. Biodegradation which utilizing microorganisms is therefore an environmentally sound alternative. A case study on microbial isolation and screening of various oily contaminated samples showed that Pseudomonas sp. and Vibrio sp. were present in all oil samples. It was found that the degradation rates depend on incubation temperature
