Abstract:
The ICOLC guidelines and Project COUNTER codes of practice have advanced the measurement of use of electronic resources. At the same time, innovations in functionality within and among electronic resources are changing the environment in which use is measured. The present article explores measures of sessions and searches for one research library’s electronic resources. The article analyzes the transition from vendor-specific to COUNTER-compliant statistics, how vendors measure the running of search alerts, and the effects of federated searching on reported use. The analysis suggests that innovations in functionality may have changed the meaning of sessions and searches. The analysis also suggests the following principle: innovations in electronic resource functionality will necessitate advances in electronic resource usage measures to describe use meaningfully.

Abstract:
Exposure to a rationale as a method to increase compliance with relaxation was tested on 52 subjects with stress-related problems. Subjects were randomly assigned to a rationale or no-rationale condition and were trained in progressive relaxation. Compliance during the subsequent week was measured by electronic tape-rewind counters, self-report, and objective and subjective ratings of performance 1 wk. later. Use of a rationale did not have a significant effect on compliance with relaxation. Although the subjects' self-reported practice and measures of proficiency were correlated, these measures were not significantly correlated with the rewind-counter measure of compliance. Research and clinical applications of these unexpected findings were discussed.

 Abstract
 
 Objective – To identify valid measures of journal usage by comparing citation data with print and electronic journal use data.
 
 Design – Bibliometric study.
 
 Setting – Large academic library in Canada.
 
 Subjects – Instances of use were collected from 11 print journals of the American Chemical Society (ACS), 9 print journals of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), and electronic journals in chemistry and biochemistry from four publishers – ACS, RSC, Elsevier, and Wiley. ACS, Elsevier, and Wiley journals in chemistry-related subject areas were sampled for Journal Impact Factors and citations data from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI).
 
 Methods – Journal usage data were collected to determine if an association existed between: (1) print and electronic journal use; (2) electronic journal use and citations to journals by authors from the university; and (3) electronic journal use and Journal Impact Factors. 
 
 Between June 2000 and September 2003, library staff recorded the re-shelving of bound volumes and loose issues of 20 journal titles published by the ACS and the RSC. 
 
 Electronic journal usage data were collected for journals published by ACS, RSC, Elsevier, and Wiley within the ISI-defined chemistry and biochemistry subject area. Data were drawn from the publishers’ Level 1 COUNTER compliant usage statistics. These data equate 1 instance of use with a user viewing an HTML or PDF full text article. The period of data collection varied, but at least 2.5 years of data were collected for each publisher. 
 
 Journal Impact Factors were collected for all ISI chemistry-related journals published by ACS, Elsevier, and Wiley for the year 2001. Library Journal Utilization Reports (purchased from ISI) were used to determine the number of times researchers at the university cited journals in the same set of chemistry-related journals over the period 1998 to 2002. The authors call this “local citation data.” (512)
 
 The results from electronic journal use were also analysed for correlation with the total number of citations, as reported in the Journal Citation Reports, for each journal in the sample.
 
 Main results – The study found a significant correlation between the results for print journal and electronic journal usage. A similar finding was reported for correlation between electronic journal usage data and local citation data. No significant association was found between Journal Impact Factors and electronic journal usage data. However, when an analysis was conducted for the total number of citations to the journals (drawn from the Journal Impact Factor calculations in Journal Citation Reports) and electronic journal use, significant correlations were found for all publishers’ journals.
 
 Conclusion – Within the fields of chemistry and biochemistry, electronic journal usage data provided by publishers are an equally valid method of determining journal usage as print journal re-shelving data. The results of the study indicate this association is valid even when print journal subscriptions have ceased. Local citation data (the citations made by researchers at the institution being studied) also provide a valid measure of journal use when compared with electronic journal usage results. Journal Impact Factors should be used with caution when libraries are making journal collection decisions.

Abstract:
A computer-aided assessment system is presented that has been designed to produce and deliver tests to the Hellenic Air Force Academy students and assess their performance. The system is called e-Xaminer and is intended for use in both undergraduate courses and distance learning post-graduate programs of the Academy. The e-Xaminer uses meta-language concepts to automatically generate tests, based on parametrically designed questions. Tests intended for different students may entail differences in the arithmetic parameters. Additionally, different tests may be composed from different but equivalent and randomly chosen sub-questions. The system may also present each student with a scrambled sequence of the same questions, as a counter-measure against cheating. Examinations are delivered via a webbased interface; an automatically generated program marks the answers submitted by each student. e-Xaminer allows the implementation of question parameterisation and counter cheating measures, so that electronic tests become significantly different and more powerful than traditional ones. Sample problems are presented which show the additional features of the e-Xaminer, intended to facilitate the work of the course organiser in issuing and marking the tests, as well as in combating cheating. This paper focuses on some new, advanced types of questions enabled by electronic assessment; it then compares paper-and-pencil exams to electronic exams; results from a small student poll on the electronic exams are also presented. Finally, the directions for planned future work are outlined.

Abstract:
Holographic and Coulter Counter detection techniques were jointly used to measure the concentration density distribution of cavitation nuclei in the ocean. Comparison of the two techniques indicates that Coulter Counter analysis measures particulate contents up to an order of magnitude smaller than indicated by the holographic method and may also produce a distorted concentration density distribution. Several possible explanations of the observed discrepancies are proposed and discussed, including fundamental differences between the in situ holographic samples and the collected samples examined with the Coulter Counter, differences between the unknown electrical conductivity of the measured particles in the sea water samples and the non-conductive polystyrene spheres used to calibrate the Coulter Counter, the rupture of aggregate particles in the flow through the Coulter Counter orifice, the effect of electronic noise on the Coulter Counter signal, and the influence of statistical sampling error. The particle number concentration density distributions decrease approximately with the fourth power of the particle radius in the observed size range of 10 to 50 μm radius. Both sets of data indicate an increase in particle concentration near the bottom of the thermocline, and the holographic bubble concentrations also indicate a similar behavior. Much higher concentrations of particles were detected in the ocean, according to the holographic analysis, than in typical cavitation test facilities. Consideration of the static mechanical equilibrium of individual air bubbles suggests that the average tensile strength of the ocean waters examined in this study is not larger than about 2000 Pa and occasionally as low as about 100 Pa.

Abstract:
Abstract Background The United States Food and Drug Administration has prioritized understanding the dependence potential of electronic cigarettes (e-cigs). Dependence is often estimated in part by examining frequency of use; however measures of e-cig use are not well developed because of varying product types. This study used an e-cig automatic puff counter to evaluate the value of self-reported e-cig use measures in predicting actual use (puffs). Methods Data were collected from a two-site randomized placebo-controlled trial evaluating the effects of e-cigs on toxicant exposure in smokers attempting to reduce their cigarette consumption. Participants randomized to an e-cig condition self-reported their e-cig frequency of use (times per day—one “time” consists of around 15 puffs or lasts around 10 minutes) on the Penn State Electronic Cigarette Dependence Index (PSECDI) and kept daily diary records of the number of puffs per day from the e-cig automatic puff counter. A linear mixed-effects model was used to determine the predictive value of the times per day measure. Correlations were used to further investigate the relationship. Results A total of 259 participants with 1165 observations of e-cig use were analyzed. Self-reported e-cig use in times per day was a significant predictor of e-cig puffs per day (p < .01). The Spearman correlation between measures was r equal to .58. Examination of individual participant responses revealed some potential difficulties reporting and interpreting times per day because of the difference in use patterns between cigarettes and e-cigs. Conclusion This study provides evidence that the self-reported PSECDI measure of times per day is a significant predictor of actual frequency of e-cig puffs taken. Implications Self-reported measures of e-cig frequency of use are predictive of actual use, but quantifying e-cig use in patterns similar to cigarettes is problematic.

Abstract:
The growing torpedo threat to ships and submarines demands effective countermeasures for defence. Detection, classification and localisation of an attacking torpedo is the first step towards launching effective countermeasures. Studies are on the rise to use the existing sonar systems to detect torpedoes and subsequently use countermeasures. The use of towed array sonar systems for torpedo detection and acoustic counter measures are the most recent and not reported much in open literature. This paper presents a modular acoustic counter measure approach using towed decoy against acoustic homing torpedoes. Describes the technologies and algorithms required for different modes of towed decoy, which is effective against both active and passive acoustic homing torpedoes. Towed decoy signal generation schemes and their realisation using digital signal processing hardware are outlined in this paper.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to measure objectively the home use of the reciprocating gait orthosis (RGO) and the electrically augmented (hybrid) RGO. It was hypothesised that RGO use would increase following provision of functional electrical stimulation (FES). Five adult subjects participated in the study with spinal cord lesions ranging from C2 (incomplete) to T6. Selection criteria included active RGO use and suitability for electrical stimulation. Home RGO use was measured for up to 18 months by determining the mean number of steps taken per week. During this time patients were supplied with the hybrid system. Three alternatives for the measurement of steps taken were investigated: a commercial digital pedometer, a magnetically actuated counter and a heel contact switch linked to an electronic counter. The latter was found to be the most reliable system and was used for all measurements. Additional information on RGO use was acquired using three patient diaries administered throughout the study and before and after the provision of the hybrid system. Testing of the original hypothesis was complicated by problems in finding a reliable measurement tool and difficulties with data collection. However, the results showed that overall use of the RGO, whether with or without stimulation, is low. Statistical analysis of the step counter results was not realistic. No statistically significant change in RGO use was found between the patient diaries. The study suggests that the addition of electrical stimulation does not increase RGO use. The study highlights the problem of objectively measuring orthotic use in the home.

Full text
Abstract:
In this study, a low-cost surge current detection sensor (SCDS) that can measure high current surges using a low-current toroidal coil is proposed for maintenance of a surge protective device (SPD). The proposed SCDS is designed to display the predicted lifetime of the SPD based on the magnitude of surge current and number of surges. In addition, a method for measuring high surge current using a toroidal coil that can usually measure only low current is proposed. A lightning strike counter consists of a microcontroller with a low-power liquid crystal display (LCD) driver, 3 VDC lithium battery, and signal conditioning circuit that converts amplitude information of the surge current into duration information of a negative pulse to facilitate processing in the microcontroller. In this paper, we propose a software algorithm that can calculate the remaining lifetime of SPD based on the amplitude and number of surge currents. There is also an option to select the capacity of the surge protective device and the number of phase lines, allowing it to assess the predicted lifetime for various types of Class II SPDs. The proposed SCDS is measured as 7.2 μA from the battery power consumption test, and the service life is calculated to be 11.1 years. It meets the International Standard IEC62561-6 test conditions of the lightning strike counter and is expected to be useful in the maintenance of SPDs and lightning protection systems.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the performance degradation resulting from multitone interference of orthogonal, noncoherent, frequency-hopped, M-ary frequency-shift keyed receivers (FH/MFSK) where the effect of thermal and other wideband noise is not neglected. The multiple, equal power jamming tones are assumed to correspond to some or all of the possible FH M-ary orthogonal signaling tones. Furthermore, the channel is modeled as a Ricean fading channel, a possibility precluded when thermal noise is neglected. Both the signaling tones and the multiple interference tones are assumed to be affected by channel fading. Both band and independent band multitone interference are considered. Performance is evaluated by obtaining a union bound on the probability of bit error, and receiver performance is compared with exact results for band multitone interference of a noncoherent FH/MFSK receiver under comparable circumstances. Except for the case of Rayleigh fading of the signal, the union bound is very tight for those cases that can be compared with exact results. The advantages of the union bound approach are twofold. First, the union bound approach yields a solution that is far less computationally intensive than that obtained with the exact approach. Second, the union bound approach allows numerical results to be obtained for interference conditions that are not amenable to exact analysis, such as independent multitone interference of FH/ MFSK

Abstract:
The effective dose equivalent, H (or the effective dose, E ) to an individual is the primary limiting quantity in radiation protection. However, techniques for measuring H for neutrons have not been fully developed. In this regard a new tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) based on a gas electron multiplier (GEM) for measuring H*(10), which is a conservative estimate of H, for neutrons was designed and constructed. The deposited energy distribution for two different neutron sources (a Cf-252 source and a AmBe source) was measured using the new TEPC. The measurements were performed using two different proportional gases: P-10 gas and a propane-based tissue equivalent gas at various pressures. A computer simulation of the new TEPC, based on the Monte Carlo method, was performed in order to obtain the pulse height distributions for the two neutron sources. The simulated results and the measured results were compared. Results show that the experimental results agree with the computational results within 20% of accuracy for both Cf-252 and AmBe neutron sources. A new model GEM-based TEPC was developed for use in obtaining H*(10). The value of H*(10) for the Cf-252 source and for the AmBe source using experimental measurements was obtained. These results are presented in this study. The study shows that the GEM-based TEPC can successfully estimate H*(10). With these results and some refinements, this GEM-based TEPC can directly be used as a neutron rem meter.

Abstract:
Standards laboratories can provide a photocathode calibration for quantum efficiency, as a function of wavelength, but their measurements are performed with the photomultiplier operating as a photodiode. Each photoelectron released makes a contribution to the photocathode current but, if it is lost or fails to create secondary electrons at d1, it makes no contribution to anode current. This is the basis of collection efficiency, F. The anode detection efficiency, ε‎, allied to F, refers to the counting efficiency of output pulses. The standard method for determining F involves photocurrent, anode current, count rate, and the use of highly attenuating filters; F may also be measured using methods based on single-electron responses (SERs), shot noise, or the SER at the first dynode.

Abstract:
The voting scenario is rich and complex: democratic institutions typically call several kinds of elections, which often have different requirements in terms of costs and needed resources, and are exposed to different security risks. Some electoral events could target relatively small sets of voters, sparsely distributed across the country or even in the world: a typical example is the election for renewing the board of directors of an association or research center. On the other hand, Government or public-office elections typically involve a great number of voters who, in most part, are localized within a country or a regional area. As a consequence, the design, development and deployment of electronic voting systems suitable to accommodate the wide range of conflicting requirements emerging from such different voting scenarios is still a challenging issue. This chapter presents u-Vote, a solution which is able to operate in different deployment settings, so as to accommodate the peculiarities characterizing different voting scenarios, while striving to provide the best possible balance between security measures and convenience for voters.

E-governance is a technological innovation that brings governance to the fore of integrity and accountability. It requires high technological commitment so as to bring the government closer to the people. Corruption on the other hand is a bane to growth and development in any country. E-governance is a corrective measure to corruption which prevents government officials from shady activities due to its transparency nature. The connection between e-governance and corruption is analyzed in this chapter, and Nigeria is selected as a case study in developing countries. The chapter concludes on the premise that e-governance reduces the strength of corruption in any country and more investment is needed to enhance this development.

Abstract:
The electoral system is paramount to the survival of democracy all over the world. Current happenings around the world, particularly in the developing world where poor conduct of elections had left a number of countries devastated are of great concern to world leaders. Therefore, efforts are ongoing to introduce a voting system that is transparent, convenient and reliable. This chapter presents an overview of an integrated electronic voting (e-Voting) system comprising: the electronic voting machine (EVM), Internet voting (i-Voting) and mobile voting (m-Voting). Similarly, issues of interoperability of the integrated system are discussed as well as the needed security measures. It is however recommended that emphasis be directed at EVM for use within the country while others are restricted to special cases of remote voting for citizens living abroad or living with certain deformities.

Abstract:
A patient history is far more prominent in diagnosis and management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) than in many chronic diseases, such as hypertension and diabetes, in which biomarkers dominate clinical decisions. A patient history traditionally has been termed ‘subjective’, based on narrative descriptions, in contrast to ‘objective’ high-technology laboratory and other measures. Self-report questionnaires provide standard, quantitative, reproducible medical history data, which meet criteria for the ‘scientific method’. Patient self-report scores for physical function distinguish active from control treatment results in RA clinical trials as effectively as laboratory tests, joint counts, or indices which include these measures. Self-report physical function generally is more reproducible than joint counts, and more significant than radiographic scores or laboratory tests in the prognosis of severe RA outcomes of work disability and mortality, providing a prognostic indicator analogous to blood pressure or haemoglobin A1C. Four prominent, feasible self-report questionnaires are the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), its multidimensional version (MDHAQ), the 36-item Short Form (SF-36), and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). The MDHAQ also includes ‘medical’ information (i.e. self-report joint count, symptom checklist, and medical history). Despite documentation of their scientific value and pragmatic advantages to document relevant information while saving time, patient questionnaires remain regarded primarily as providing ancillary rather than essential information to inform clinical decisions, based in part on perceived barriers concerning feasibility and complexities to interface with electronic medical records. Quantitative assessment of physical function on patient questionnaires prior to every routine rheumatology encounter could improve patient care and outcomes.

Abstract:
In this study, I examine the adoption, penetration and impacts of the adoption of leading-edge information technologies in American local governments. I also discuss future trends with respect to these technologies. Data for this study come from three nationwide surveys of information technology in local governments and a series of case studies in US cities about the adoption of leading-edge information technologies. My principal findings are that American local governments have adopted a range of these technologies and can be expected to do so in coming years. This is especially true of the adoption of electronic government. Local government characteristics associated with adoption include principally local government size as measured by population. Other characteristics include type and form of government, region of the country, and metropolitan status. Additionally, local governments adopt leading-edge information technologies for both general reasons (e.g., to improve efficiency and effectiveness) and to solve specific problems (e.g., the adoption of automated fingerprint identification systems to solve crimes).

Abstract:
Buoyancy-driven counter flows of helium-air were investigated through horizontal and inclined small openings. Counter flows may occur following a window opening as ventilation, fire in the room as well as a pipe rupture accident in a high temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor [1]. The counter flows also occur following the fusion reactor accident of LOVA that takes place through the breaches of vacuum vessel penetration duct [2]. The experiment has carried out by a test chamber filled with helium and flow was visualized by the smoke wire method. The flow behavior has recorded by a high-speed camera with a computer system. The image of the flow was transferred to the digital data, thus the flow velocity was measured by PTV software. The mass fraction in the test chamber was measured by electronic balance. The detected data was arranged by the densimetric Floude number of the counter flow rate that derived from the dimensional analysis. The method of mass increment was developed and applied to measure the counter flow rate. By removing the cover plate placed on the top of the opening, the counter flow initiated. Air enters the test chamber and the mass of the gas mixture in the test chamber increased. The volumetric counter flow rate was evaluated from the mass increment data. In the case of inclination openings, the results of both methods were compared. The inclination angle for maximum densimetric Floude number decreased with increasing length-to-diameter ratio of the opening. For a horizontal opening, the results from the method of mass increment agreed with those obtained by other authors for a water-brine system.

Abstract:
Power generation of laboratory-scaled marine hydrokinetic (MHK) cross-flow (vertical axis) turbines in counter-rotating configurations was scrutinized both experimentally and numerically. A tabletop experiment, designed around a magnetic hysteresis brake as the speed controller and a Hall-effect sensor as the speed transducer was built to measure the rotor rotational speed and the hydrodynamic torque generated by the turbine blades. A couple of counter-rotating straight-three-bladed vertical-axis turbines were linked through a transmission of spur gears and timing pulleys/belt and coupled to the electronic instrumentation via flexible shaft couplers. A total of 6 experiments in 3 configurations, with various relative distances and phase angles, were conducted in the water channel facility (3.5 m long, 0.30 m wide, and 0.15 m deep) at rotor diameter base Reynolds number of 20,000. The power curve of the counter-rotating turbines (0.068-m rotor diameter) was measured and compared with that of a single turbine of the same size. Experimental results show the tendency of power production enhancement of different counter-rotating configurations. Additionally, the two-dimensional (2D) turbine wakes and blade hydrodynamic interactions were simulated by the shear stress transport k-omega (SST k-omega) model using OpenFOAM. The computational domain included a stationary region and two rotating regions (for the case of counter-rotating turbines) set at constant angular velocities. The interface between the rotating and stationary region was modeled as separated surface boundaries sliding on each other. Velocity, pressure, turbulent kinetic energy, eddy viscosity, and specific dissipation rate field were interpolated between these boundaries.

Abstract:
It is well known that human platelets can aggregate in vitro under certain shear stress without adding aggregating inducers. However, the mechanism of this shear-induced platelet aggregation has not been clarified yet. In this paper, we have investigated the role of fibrinogen and GP IIb/IIIa in shear-induced platelet aggregation. Citrated human platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was subjected to controlled shear stress levels in a polycarbonate cone and plate viscometer at 37°C for 2 minutes. After shearing the particle count was measured by an electronic particle counter. Particles with sizes from 3 to 20 μ cum were considered as single platelets. In unsheared PRP most of the particles were single platelets, but platelet doublets and platelet fragments larger than 3 μ cum were also counted. After exposure to shear rate of 3,600 - 9,000 sec−1 , the particle counts were decreased in a shear rate dependent manner, while LDH leakage from platelets was not significantly increased and 3H-serotonin release was 2-7%. Scanning electronmicroscopy clearly showed the presence of large platelet aggregates when the particle counts were decreased. Platelets from two patients with thrombasthenia and one patient with afibrinogenemia, however, failed to aggregate at a shear rate of 9,000 sec−1. Shear-induced aggregation was inhibited by monoclonal antibody to GPIIb/IIIa (1 μg/ml) and synthetic peptide, Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser, (1 mM). When fibrinogen was added to PRP from a patient with afibrinogenemia, shear-induced aggregation became evident as seen in normal platelets. Apyrase and hirudin showed no effect on shear-induced aggregation. Indomethacin (100 μM) and TXA2 synthetase inhibitor, OKY-046 (100 μM) markedly inhibited aggregation, while TXA2 competitive inhibitor, ONO-3708 (100 μM) exhibited only partial inhibition.Our results indicate that binding of fibrinogen to GPIIb/lIIa is also crucial for shear-induced platelet aggregation and that the exposure of fibrinogen receptor on GPIIb/IIIa may partially depend upon TXA2 synthesis in platelets.

Abstract:
There is a large amount of tritium in tail gas emitting from the molten salt reactor. The content of tritium content in tail gas must be measured and controlled according to the national standard. Nowadays, the ionization chamber and the liquid scintillation counter are mainly used for tritium monitoring. The proportional counter required pure sampling gas, and the liquid scintillation cannot measure the radioactivity online. Only the ionization chamber could measure the activities of off-gas from molten salt reactor. In order to reduce tritium contamination in the ionization chamber, a wire type high pressure ionization chamber was used in measuring tail gas from molten salt reactor. In order to improve the ion collection efficiency of the wire type electrode ionization chamber, it is necessary to optimize the number of the electrodes. In this study, the electric field of ionization chamber with different numbers of electrodes, such as 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, were simulated by COMSOL software. The equipotential line of electric field near the collector is round. The equipotential line of electric field near the high voltage wires present as undulate. From the results, the optimum number of wires was 36. The difference of electric field between two types chambers were less than 5%. After that, collection efficiency was simulated as well. Increasing the number of the high voltage electrode at top and bottom of effective area could not improve the electron collection efficiency. Making the ionization chamber shell as an insulator can effectively improve the electrons collection efficiency.

Abstract:
[Extract from Executive Summary] The competition for space from competing sectors in the coastal waters of Scotland has never been greater and thus there is a growing a need for interactive seascape planning tools that encompass all marine activities. Similarly, the need to gather data to inform decision makers, especially in the fishing industry, has become essential to provide advice on the economic impact on fishing fleets both in terms of alternative conservation measures (e.g. effort limitations, temporal and spatial closures) as well as the overlap with other activities, thereby allowing stakeholders to derive a preferred option. The SIFIDS project was conceived to allow the different relevant data sources to be identified and to allow these data to be collated in one place, rather than as isolated data sets with multiple data owners. The online interactive tool developed as part of the project (Work Package 6) brought together relevant data sets and developed data storage facilities and a user interface to allow various types of user to view and interrogate the data. Some of these data sets were obtained as static layers which could sit as background data e.g. substrate type, UK fishing limits; whilst other data came directly from electronic monitoring systems developed as part of the SIFIDS project. The main non-static data source was Work Package 2, which was collecting data from a sample of volunteer inshore fishing vessels (<12m). This included data on location; time; vessel speed; count, time and position of deployment of strings of creels (or as fleets and pots as they are also known respectively); and a count of how many creels were hauled on these strings. The interactive online tool allowed all the above data to be collated in a specially designed database and displayed in near real time on the web-based application.
