Abstract:
Dichotomous keys are the most popular type of identification keys. Studies have been conducted to evaluate dichotomous keys in many aspects. In this paper we propose an index for quantitative evaluation of dichotomous keys (Edicho). The index is based on the evenness and allows comparing identification keys of different sizes.

Abstract:
The popularity of electronic identification keys for species identification has increased with the rapid technological advancements of the 21st century. Although electronic identification keys have several advantages over conventional textual identification keys and work well for charismatic species with large and clear morphological characters, they appear to be less feasible and less effective for species with cryptic morphology (i.e. small, obscure, variable characters and/or complicated structures associated with terminology that is difficult to interpret). This is largely due to the diffi

Abstract:
The systematic arrangement of the Eutardigrada has radically changed since 1969 due to the new evaluation of characteristics of the claws and of the bucco-pharyngeal apparatus and the use of some characters overlooked before. After that date, as a consequence, four new families and 40 genera have been instituted. Given the changes and number of novelties, the authors have updated the definitions of all familial and generic taxa and have provided keys to aid identification.

The success of asteroseismology lies in the correct identification of the normal modes of oscillation. The Whole Earth Telescope (WET) identified the normal modes of a helium white dwarf pulsator, GD358, by analyzing the period distribution of the pulsation modes. Another way to identify modes is by comparing pulsation amplitudes in the UV to the optical. To cross-calibrate the two mode identification methods, we observed GD358 in August, 1996 with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to obtain the UV data while observing nearly simultaneously from the ground.

Abstract:
AbstractBecause of their inherent complexity, urban brownfield regeneration projects are long-term operations. The study of the evolution from urban brownfield site to a new—and ideally sustainable—neighbourhood through a regeneration process has led to the identification of five key steps: Backgrounds, Initiators, Guidelines, Legal Basis, and Realization. This chapter highlights the specific issues encountered during these different steps. Thus, our early reflections on the future of an urban brownfield at the regional and metropolitan levels concern the Background and Initiator steps. The formulation of a coherent project to overcome negative perception and foster a shared vision relates to the Guidelines steps. The transition from the urban to the architectural project is dealt with during the Legal Basis and Realization steps. Finally, issues concerning the multiple forms of participatory processes and the evaluation of sustainability objectives must be taken into consideration throughout the regeneration process. These reflections provide a foundation for developing a series of measures and more concrete lines of action.

AbstractAssuming that it is not possible to detach a dwelling from its location, this article highlights the relevance of space in the context of housing market analysis and the challenge of capturing the key elements of spatial structure in an automated valuation model: location attributes, heterogeneity, dependence and scale. Thus, the aim is to present a spatial automated valuation model (sAVM) prototype, which uses spatial econometric models to determine the value of a residential property, based on identification of eight housing characteristics (seven are physical attributes of a dwelling, and one is its location; once this spatial data is known, dozens of new variables are automatically associated with the model, producing new and valuable information to estimate the price of a housing unit). This prototype was developed in a successful cooperation between an academic institution (University of Aveiro) and a business company (PrimeYield SA), resulting the Prime AVM & Analytics product/service. This collaboration has provided an opportunity to materialize some of fundamental knowledge and research produced in the field of spatial econometric models over the last 15 years into decision support tools.

Abstract:
Home healthcare applications have the potential to reduce healthcare costs and improve the quality of life for elderly people who prefer to stay in their own homes instead of making frequent visits to the hospital. This requires ambient assisted living applications that fulfil relevant needs of the users; yet it also requires applications with a high level of usability in order to achieve user acceptance, especially when the target user group is elderly people. This chapter proposes a method to be used for conducting usability evaluations of smart healthcare applications. It includes a report from a usability evaluation where the method was used to evaluate a simple home healthcare application for collecting personal health data in the home. The usability evaluation demonstrates that the method presented here facilitates identification of key usability problems, while the efforts required to conduct the evaluation are considerably reduced compared to conventional methods.

This chapter focuses on the analysis of how learners and educators perceive the role of Distance Education Educators (DEE) in a Distance Education Ecosystem (DEco). Scholars have been using ecology and ecosystem definitions as analogies through which definitions and models for creating better learning environments are discussed. This chapter presents an overview of these studies followed by the findings of a research on learner and educator perceptions regarding the role of DEEs within the DEco. The research, based on a former DEco definition compiled in a study at Anadolu University, Turkey, uses a twofold Delphi study: one conducted with experienced DE Learners (DEL) and the other with DEE. In both studies, the participants were asked to define the roles of DEE within the framework of the former DEco constituents and common and differentiating issues are analyzed. DEE, formerly described as a consumer in DEco further was categorized as an input unit, producer, and decomposer. The results revealed four key roles for DEE: empathetic facilitator, devoted expert, productive technology user, and patient negotiator.

Abstract:
The use of Business-to-Business (B2B) e-commerce within the Australian pharmaceutical supply chain can potentially assist in setting up an infrastructure which supports complex, multiparty Internet-based trading and transactions among pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesalers, hospitals, pharmacies, medical supply importers and exporters, and other players in the healthcare system. Effective use of B2B e-commerce can help these organizations reduce costs in supplying and distributing medicines and other medical-related products to the general public. However, despite high expectations for realizing the benefits of B2B e-commerce in the pharmaceutical supply chain, issues surrounding its evaluation and management remain poorly understood and relatively under-researched. This chapter presents case study findings on key management and evaluation issues and challenges in adopting and utilizing B2B e-commerce systems on eight pharmaceutical organizations in Australia. The key objectives of this study are: (1) to establish current practices and norms in evaluating B2B e-commerce investments and projects in the pharmaceutical industry; and (2) to identify key B2B e-commerce management issues and challenges within the Australian pharmaceutical supply chain. A key contribution of this chapter is the identification and examination of key issues and challenges faced by the pharmaceutical organizations undertaking B2B e-commerce activities within their supply chain. The findings will guide senior executives in these organizations to develop their own approaches or strategies to manage the opportunities and threats that exist in the Australian pharmaceutical supply chain.

<em>Abstract.-</em>The capacity to conduct meaningful and cost-effective program evaluation is critical to program sustainability in this age of increasing accountability and competitive funding. Many urban fishing programs around the country have conducted basic process evaluation, accounting for audiences reached and numbers of activities. A comprehensive program evaluation requires clarity related to the ultimate goals and desired outcomes and ultimate impact of a program. Evaluation at this level can be challenging for programs with limited staff and resources. Meaningful evaluation of urban fishing programs can be guided by the development of a program logic mode. A logic model provides a representation of the “theory of action,” and has direct linkages to learning theory, specifically Bennett’s hierarchy of effects. A logic model supports a program director’s management of an evaluation by targeting evaluation efforts through the identification of key program outcome indicators that are specific, measurable, attainable, and results oriented.

Abstract:
Attribute reduction and feature selection is the main issue in rough set. Researchers have focused on several attribute reduction using rough set. However, the methods found are time consuming for large data sets. Since the key lies in reducing the attributes and selecting the relevant features, the main aim is to reduce the dimensionality of huge amount of data to get the smaller subset which can provide the useful information. Feature selection approach reduces the dimensionality of feature space and improves the overall performance. The challenge in feature selection is to deal with high dimensional. To overcome the issues and challenges, this chapter describes a feature selection based on the proposed neighborhood positive approximation approach and attributes reduction for data sets. This proposed system implements for attribute reduction and finds the relevant features. Evaluation shows that the proposed neighborhood positive approximation algorithm is effective and feasible for large data sets and also reduces the feature space.

Abstract:
With increased competition, speculation, changes in customer expectations, and world events that significantly disturb the markets, managers have more technical difficulties in coordinating/monitoring organizational processes and practices. The lean philosophy made it possible, through the identification of the most recurring problems within the company under study, to understand the restructuring needs of the organizational culture, the revision of fundamental key processes, the significant improvement in response times, and the assumption of a commitment by stakeholders from the various areas of activity in the company. In this context, this work, carried out in the scope of internship, aims to analyze and evaluate the importance of adopting the lean concept in a multinational company, inferring about the benefits achieved and the improvements felt with regard to competitiveness and service level. In this sense, it was clear that the adoption of lean allows the optimization of key processes.

Abstract:
Human endeavors can be understood at the levels of evaluating what is good (values identification) and judging what is right (norms identification). These ethical considerations ideally find expression by becoming embedded in daily activity, with the ideal often buttressed by formal laws and regulations. Commitments to a strategy of sustainable management remain principally an ethical (rather than a regulatory) issue and are addressed primarily by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) rather than states. The United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) offer a blueprint for a more s

Abstract:
Abstract Currently, in automotive industry, identification of vehicle crash model parameters on test measurements is a key point. This paper outlines an approach based on optimization methods for this problem in the context of side impacts. It presents the problematic of crash model parameter identification. The engineer’s evaluation criteria of correlation are translated into an optimization objective function. Several optimization strategies are applied to identification of side impact crash model parameters. The comportment on our problem of these strategies are characterized, and numerical

Abstract:
Due to the large amount of images shared on the web, tracking the spread and evolution of their content have become an increasingly important problem. As an image might be a composition created through the combination of the semantic information existent in two or more source images, establishing a relationship between the sources and the composite is an ever-growing problem of interest. We name as Multiple Parenting Phylogeny the problem of identifying such relationships in a set containing near-duplicate subsets of source and composition images. To tackle this problem, this work presents a t

Abstract:
One of the key elements in probabilistic risk assessment is identification and characterization of uncertainties. This paper aims to suggest a procedure to identify influencing factors for uncertainty in source term evaluation, which are important to risk of public dose. We propose the following five steps for the identification: (1) derivation of variable parameters by expansion of dynamic equation for the system and scenario to be investigated, (2) extraction of uncertainties in variable factors, (3) selection of influencing factors for uncertainty among variable parameters by analysis of ex

Abstract:
Many theoretical methods for assessing robustness introduced so far, due to their complexity, appear to be almost impossible to use in practical design. Therefore, the present study proposes a simplified method for evaluation of the robustness of bridges. In the proposed methods two strategies for providing robustness are utilised: increasing local resistance in order to prevent the key element from failing; increasing damage tolerance by providing redundancy in order to recompense failure of the element. Accordingly, two separate approaches for evaluating bridge robustness are introduced. Bot
