Poverty in consumer culture: towards a transformative social representation
(2014-12)
In this article, we consider the representations of poverty within consumer culture. We focus on four main themes – social exclusion, vulnerability, pleasure and contentment – that capture some of the associations that ...
A semantic policy framework for internet of things
(2018-10-31)
With the proliferation of technology, connected and interconnected devices (henceforth referred to as IoT) are fast becoming a viable option to automate the day-to-day interactions of users with their environments. However, ...
Heart motion prediction based on adaptive estimation algorithms for robotic assisted beating heart surgery
(IEEE, 2013)
Robotic-assisted beating heart surgery aims to allow surgeons to operate on a beating heart without stabilizers as if the heart is stationary. The robot actively cancels heart motion by closely following a point of interest ...
Cross-efficiency in DEA: a maximum resonated appreciative model
(Elsevier, 2015-03)
The occurrence of multiple optimal solutions is an important and interesting issue in data envelopment analysis (DEA), for it allows flexibility to estimate the optimal cross-efficiencies of all decision making units (DMUs). ...
The two settings of kind and wicked learning environments
(Association for Psychological Science, 2015-10)
Inference involves two settings: In the first, information is acquired (learning); in the second, it is applied (predictions or choices). Kind learning environments involve close matches between the informational elements ...
Interpretation of searches for supersymmetry with simplified models
(American Physical Society, 2013-09-23)
The results of searches for supersymmetry by the CMS experiment are interpreted in the framework of simplified models. The results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.73 to 4.98 fb(-1). The ...
Measurement of WZ and ZZ production in pp collisions at in final states with b-tagged jets
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2014-08)
Measurements are reported of the WZ and ZZ production cross sections in proton-proton collisions at in final states where one Z boson decays to b-tagged jets. The other gauge boson, either W or Z, is detected through its ...
Measurement of the Υ(1S), Υ(2S), and Υ(3S) polarizations in pp collisions at root s 7 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2013-02-22)
The polarizations of the Upsilon(1S), Upsilon(2S), and Upsilon(3S) mesons are measured in proton-proton collisions at root s = 7 TeV, using a data sample of Upsilon(nS) -> mu(+)mu(-) decays collected by the CMS experiment, ...
Involvement of the notifying body in the innovative development environment: lessons learnt from the development of green alternative cryogenic fuelling systems in multinational work groups
(IEEE, 2014)
To reduce emissions alternative innovative fuel technologies like the usage of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) are focused on, which are not mature yet and there is a high level of uncertainty. The Notifying Body, which shall ...
Ideology and brand consumption
(Sage, 2013-03)
Do mundane daily choices, such as what brands people buy in a supermarket, reflect aspects of values and ideologies? This article presents a large-scale field study performed to determine whether traits associated with a ...
