This paper describes the concept of A-space. A-space is the space where visualization algorithms reside. Every visualization algorithm is a unique point in A-space. Integrated visualizations can be interpreted as an interpolation between known algorithms. The void between algorithms can be considered as a visualization opportunity where a new point in A-space can be reconstructed and new integrated visualizations can be created

Factors related to voluntary external turnover of nursing professionals

Objective: To analyze the factors related to the turnover of nursing professionals of a public teaching hospital. Method: Descriptive, exploratory, retrospective study with quantitative analysis conducted with workers from a public teaching hospital. The analysis used a data collection instrument from the service, applied at the time of the voluntary resignation of the professional. Results: 223 nursing professionals participated in the study. The factors that led to voluntary turnover were the employment bond, age and the association of both. The majority of professionals were young adults, in a high productivity phase, which increases willingness to seek challenges in the labor market and professional improvements. Conclusion: Turnover is multifactorial and influenced by economic, social and political aspects. Reducing inequalities in working conditions, which generate dissatisfaction, such as different employment bonds for professionals who have the same function and perform the same activities, is fundamental to reduce turnover

Normal solution to the Enskog-Landau kinetic equation. Boundary conditions method

Nonstationary and nonequilibrium processes are considered on the basis of an Enskog-Landau kinetic equation using a boundary conditions method. A nonstationary solution of this equation is found in the pair collision approximation. This solution takes into account explicitly the influence of long-range interactions. New terms to the transport coefficients are identified. An application of the boundary conditions method to hydrodynamic description of fast processes is discussed.Comment: 11 LaTeX pages using Elsevier format elsart.st

Emotional discomfort among school staff and student teachers when they had to 'tell' or 'not tell' about vague suspicions of domestic violence

Background: Many employees in schools and kindergartens fail to report vague suspicions (e.g., inadequate clothing, signs of anxiety or lack of sleep, being verbally violent to peers) that children are victims of domestic violence because they are unsure whether their suspicions are well founded. Objective: We investigated the degree of emotional discomfort among school staff and student teachers when they had to 'tell ’ or ‘ not tell ’ about vague suspicions of domestic violence. We assumed that they would experience more emotional discomfort when they did not report such vague suspicions. Participants and setting: Seventy-one teachers and student teachers (20 men and 51 women; average age: 25, age range: 18 – 62) were recruited from three primary and lower secondary schools. Methods: We used an experimental design in this quantitative vignette study, and the particiants were asked to respond to 54 statements that were related to the need for acceptance by others, seriousness, appraisals (e.g. social self-image and self-image) and self-critical feelings (e.g. rejection, shame, and inferiority). Results: The results of the experimental study show that participants who did not tell about their vague suspicions of violence reported this as being more serious ( p < .05), had a more negative self-appraisal ( p < .05) and reported a higher degree of negative feelings ( p < .05). The study sheds light on the seriousness of ‘ not telling ’ about vague suspicions, and shows that ‘ not telling ’ is reported as being more emotionally uncomfortable than ‘ telling ’Emotional discomfort among school staff and student teachers when they had to 'tell' or 'not tell' about vague suspicions of domestic violencepublishedVersio

Optimization of Energy Harvesting Systems for RFID Applications

To avoid battery assisted tags with limited lifetime batteries, it is proposed here to replace them by energy harvesting systems, able to feed from local environment. This would allow total independence to RFID systems, very interesting for applications where tag removal from its location is not possible. Example is here described for luggage safety in airports, and is easily extendable to similar situation in terms of operation constraints. The idea is to fix RFID tag with energy harvesting system not only to identify luggage but also to supply an embedded microcontroller with a sensor delivering luggage weight making it impossible to add or to remove anything from the luggage during transit phases. The aim is to optimize the harvested energy for such RFID applications, and to study in which limits these applications are theoretically possible. Proposed energy harvester is based on two energy sources: piezoelectricity and electromagnetic waves, so that when the luggage is moving on ground transportation to airline counters, the piezo module supplies the tag and its microcontroller, while the RF module operates during luggage transit thanks to readers located along the way. Tag location on the luggage is analyzed to get best vibrations, as well as harvester better choice for optimizing the energy supply depending on applications and the amount of energy harvested during a period of time. Effects of system parameters (RFID UHF frequencies, limit distance between the tag and the antenna necessary to harvest energy, produced voltage and voltage threshold) are discussed and working conditions for such system are delimited
