Abstract:
This study examined women’s information behaviour and decision-making during the menopause transition. The findings were compared with expectations from McKenzie’s Model of Information Practices in Everyday Life Information Seeking (developed from a study of twin-pregnancy). Methods: There were two strands to the study: 1) An evaluation of the service provided by a community menopause clinic. For this strand 199 patients registered at the clinic completed questionnaires (response rate 92.1%) giving their views about the clinic and data about their information practices relating to the menopaus

The Navy and Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI), which is second only to the Internet in size, was supposed to be a mechanism to transform and support the Navy and Marine Corps with an IT infrastructure that would move the Department of Navy into the 21st century of warfare.

The current state of NMCI, though marred by a decade filled with marginal successes and many setbacks, is very positive, boasting more than 700,000 users, and consisting of over 380,000 work

The Kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm is a universal method to simulate the evolution of systems governed by a master equation. However, this approach is severely limited by the kinetic trapping of the simulated trajectories in low energy basins. To alleviate this issue, non-local transitions escaping the trapping basins are performed based on a factorisation of the transition matrix associated with the master equation. Whenever trapping becomes severe, the simulation repeatedly visits a limited number of basins and performs the same factorisations many times. In this report, we present two method

That is why, in industry, the priority focus is for now put on improving the energy efficiency, or the quantity of energy needed to develop a defined amount of product. Among the various tools that can improve the energy efficiency of an industrial site, a valid option is represented by software-based controlling system that manages the consumption of an industrial plant through sensors that track key performance indicators, optimize the processes from an energy standpoint a
