Abstract:
The article deals with the main characteristics of scientific and technical texts in terms of pragmatic science. Communicative and pragmatic characteristics of scientific and technical texts are considered in present article as well as other important constituents of pragmatic relations, such as communicative intention, content, composition, participants of scientific communication and signature style. Theoretical principles of pragmatic text research on the basis of national and foreign researchers’ concepts have been analyzed. The main participants of scientific and technical communication, namely addresser and addressee have been considered as the key constituents required for establishing communicative and pragmatic situation, communicative intention conveying and realization of communicative and pragmatic potential. The emphasis has been put on pragmatic functions, namely informative, cognitive, persuasive, explanatory, communicative and didactic as well as their actualization in scientific text. Being in the scope of our interest, scientific and technical texts are built under the influence of extralinguistic factors such as background information or diversified interests of the participants of communication.

Abstract:
This article provides a brief presentation of the development of some cognitive scientific views on technical communication and translation. I look in detail at one of the latest cognitive scientific trends, namely Situated and Embodied Cognition. According to this approach, humans are creative beings who are dependent on their physical and psychological circumstances. I provide a brief overview of the background to situated, embodied cognition, present some of its main concepts and conclude with a number of proposals about how findings in this field can be used to further develop research in Technical Communication and Translation Studies. In doing so, I argue that the new findings in cognitive science will necessarily change some of the common concepts and methodological traditions with regard to the actual text production process and competencies.

Abstract:
The article deals with the research of stylistic and grammatical features of the English scientific and technical text and its translation. The article reveals the meaning of the concept of "scientific and technical text", which occupies a special place in social communication, as well as highlights the stylistic features of scientific and technical text. Their nomenclature is mainly developed universally at the level of functional styles. But the scientific and technical text, in comparison with other styles, is characterized by obviously expressed differences between its individual genres, namely, the genre specificity is reflected in varying degrees in the depiction of stylistic features. In the course of research characteristic features of the scientific and technical text were allocated. The article notes that the determination and consideration of grammatical and stylistic features of scientific and technical text in the process of translating information of the text, translated from English into Ukrainian and vice versa, allow to correctly perceive this information, accurately express the views of researchers and scientists. The basic requirements that a technical translation must meet have been identified.

Full text
Abstract:
Scientific and technical translation has always played a pivotal role in disseminating knowledge. Today, the domain of science and technology is the main area of translation work. Nevertheless, there is still a discrepancy between the growing need for high-quality technical translations and the short supply of competent technical translators to produce them, a situation which may be due in part to the recent neglect of the equivalence concept in the theoretical/descriptive and applied branches of translation studies (TS). This thesis sets out to redefine, reassess, and reinstate equivalence as a useflul concept in TS by adopting an approach based on the English-German language pair and on one specific text genre and type. The investigation of equivalence as a qualitative complete-text-in-context-based concept is embedded in an equivalence-relevant methodology based on two methodological pillars, the first being a theoretically sound translation comparison and the second a highly refined translation corpus. Within this methodological framework, equivalence-relevant features are investigated and described at the syntactic, lexical-semantic, terminological-phraseological and overall textual levels. These levels are hierarchically interrelated in descending and ascending order and may be conditioned by pragmatic aspects, viz., domain knowledge and register considerations. The comparison is made using a high-quality corpus selected on the basis of a threefold set of selection criteria, with a special emphasis on the qualitative criteria. This helps us generate well-underpinned intersubjectifiable regularities in the form of potential equivalents established in the TT for ST equivalence-relevant features and enables us to obtain meaningful generalizations. Both regularities and generalizations should be capable of implementation in the applied branches of TS and, at the same time, help dynamize and intersubjectify the complex concept of equivalence. So, hopefully, this thesis will also contribute toward creating a link between the methodological, theoretical/descriptive and applied branches of TS to their mutual benefit.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to explore the interface between scientific and technical translation (STT) and cognitive linguistics (CL), placing particular emphasis on the translationally relevant phenomena of explicitation and implicitation. The two concepts are regarded as potential indicators of translational text-context interaction, which may be of specific importance in the knowledge-intense field of STT and which can be modelled within the CL framework. Parallel to the microscopic attempt to give a coherent account of explicitation and implicitation in STT from a CL perspective, the thesis follows a macroscopic approach that aims to highlight the wider potential which cognitive linguistics holds for the field of scientific and technical translation. Translationally relevant elements of the CL framework include a coherent and cognitively plausible epistemological basis that explains the stability of scientific knowledge, the concept of common ground, which can be used to model the shared knowledge of specialized discourse communities, the field of cognitive semantics, which has developed tools for modelling the organization and representation of specialized knowledge, and the concept of linguistic construal, which allows the description of various linguistic aspects of STT (explicitation and implicitation among them) from a cognitively plausible perspective. The first part of the thesis takes a macroscopic perspective, being concerned with scientific and technical translation, cognitive linguistics, the philosophical grounding of the two fields and their interface. The perspective is then narrowed down to the two specific phenomena of explicitation and implicitation, which are reconceptualized in cognitive linguistic terms so as to fit into the overall framework of the thesis. The interface between STT and CL is then illustrated in a qualitative corpus-based investigation of explicitation and implicitation as indicators of text-context interaction in translation. The qualitative discussion of the results of the corpus analysis then brings together the theoretical strands of the thesis.

Full text
Abstract:
Research in both first and second language reading has shown that awareness of text structure, or rhetorical organisation is related to superior recall of main ideas from expository prose passages. The present study investigates awareness of scientific text structure among tertiary students from different language backgrounds. In this investigation, four reading passages containing two rhetorical text structures found in scientific discourse, comparison/contrast and problem/solution are employed. Meyer’s (1975) hierarchical content structure analysis was used to analyse the texts into top, high, mid and low level ideas corresponding to main and supporting ideas. The research questions were centred around three major areas: 1. Whether subjects from different language backgrounds displayed differences in quantity of idea units and main ideas recalled 2. Whether difference were related to subjects’ awareness of text structure as measured in use of the structure of the original passage in their written recalls 3. Whether the different rhetorical structures produced any significant overall differences in quantity and level (main vs supporting) of ideas recalled by subjects. Forty five first year university students aged between 18 and 20 studying science participated in the study, with fifteen students in each of the following groups: Australian, Singapore and Malaysian.

Abstract:
Типовою ознакою науково-технічної літератури є значна насиченість її термінами. Відмінність терміна від звичайного слова залежить, передусім, від його значення. Терміни виражають поняття, властиві лише конкретній галузі науки і техніки. Науково-технічні терміни як мовні знаки, що репрезентують поняття спеціальної, професійної галузі науки або техніки, становлять суттєву складову науково-технічних текстів і є однією з головних причин виникнення труднощів при перекладі з огляду на їх неоднозначність, відсутність перекладних відповідників (у випадку термінів-неологізмів) та національну варіативність [3].

Abstract:
Translation is a complicated informational process, which means that the translator should render information transmitted as fully as possible. This can be achieved only if certain structural and semantic changes are introduced. These changes, which are caused by lexical and grammatical differences between languages (and broadly speaking – by the differences between the respective cultures), are called transformations in translation.

Abstract:
Plain language summaries increasingly serve as a strategy to make scientific research accessible to wide audiences. However, authors often know little about plain language audiences or their goals, so the rhetorical situation of this emerging genre remains unstable and guidance for authors remains fraught. To better understand these summaries, this chapter uses a DocuScope analysis coupled with close reading to compare a corpus of 150 AGU/Wiley Earth and Space journal abstracts with their plain language counterparts. The study yields six areas of significant difference, including less detailed information and more metadiscourse, first-person references, and language of inquiry. These differences collectively reveal the way authors rhetorically shift from the role of technical reporter to personal guide to readers. The chapter concludes with two recommendations for crafting and conceptualizing plain language summaries.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper aims to study the terminology of the wine language in the context of traditional medicine from a translational perspective. The treatment of medical terminology, as well as its translation into Spanish, involves exceptional difficulty due to the level of specialization of this field. In doing so, the professional specialised in medical translation works with a highly specialized language, composed of broad-ranging set of technical terms. Subjected constantly to scientific updating, these terms are conditioned by the influence of other languages, as their long-lived Greco-Latin roots or the current English-speaking influence in health science. Likewise, wine consumption has a deep-rooted relationship with medicine, given its healing properties granted by traditional medicine throughout history and which nowadays also includes scientific medicine. Therefore, using research scientific documents, some aspects of the wine’s lexicon are analysed in this article, with the principal objective of proposing a translation from German to Spanish of the term and its context, rethinking the relevance of its correct treatment.

Abstract:
Abstract An effective implementation of the Part II of the Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ Agreement) will require understanding the relevance of the infrastructure in the treaty text. The Agreement’s Part II provides a new framework of information and benefit sharing of marine genetic resources of areas beyond national jurisdiction and associated Digital Sequence Information and Traditional Knowledge. This chapter for the edited collection “Decoding Marine Genetic Resource Governance under the BBNJ Agreement” explores the infrastructure of the Agreement. The chapter views infrastructure of an implementing agreement to be robust when there is a Conference of the Parties (COP) with a decision-making function, a Secretariat and various subsidiary bodies (e.g., Scientific and Technical Body) that provide support for the COP to make informed decisions in an objective manner. A strong infrastructure also facilitates transparency through an open-access information platform and inclusivity provisions, which allow a wide range of stakeholders to be timely informed and facilitate active participation in meetings. Further, a strong infrastructure builds in functions to review the progress of implementation so that any gaps can be addressed by the COP or the Parties, with the support of the subsidiary bodies. These aspects are essential to ensure that with input from various stakeholders, the COP can make timely and well-informed decisions to enhance the health of the two-thirds of the global ocean.

AbstractBiosecurity is a multi-disciplinary topic that covers areas of policy, public health, economics, and science. This chapter focuses on the technical scientific aspects of the current international biosecurity framework. We discuss these technical areas in terms time horizon. We begin this chapter with review of current technology within the international biosecurity framework and discuss weakness and opportunities for further work. We then focus on near-term technical developments and imminent opportunities to strengthen the existing framework. Specifically, we break down the range of issues into biological threat prevention, detection, and response. We discuss how technical tools can assist in policy development and the engineering cycle of Design, Built, and Test. Finally, this chapter describes a ‘futuring’ exercise conducted by the working group that created this chapter to explore broader longer-term issues in the biosecurity space.

Abstract:
AbstractAutomated handling of technical textiles poses major challenges on modern handling systems. Previous research has shown that using suction grippers is feasible for handling processes involving textiles. However, separating individual sheets of air-permeable materials from a stack using such grippers is a nontrivial task. This paper details an automated stack singulation process using low pressure suction grippers leveraging online data from differential pressure sensors to control the singulation process. Subsystems are analyzed to derive a governing model representation of the process. This model is deployed on a robotic test rig validating the process in experimental analysis. Using this approach, a controlled singulation process for stacked carbon fiber mats has been achieved with a success rate exceeding 99% showing the practicality of controlling the internal suction pressure for advanced handling processes using low pressure suction grippers. Further improvement could be achievable by incorporating and fusing multiple sensor principles.

Abstract:
Currently, solar energy is one of the most widely used types of green energy in the world. In different parts of the earth, solar insolation is not constant. Therefore, this study aims to determine the main characteristics of solar insolation in the different climatic zones. This paper analyzes the prospects for using solar energy in subtropical, temperate-continental, continental, sharp-continental, and monsoon climate zones. The efficiency of converting solar radiation into electrical energy is estimated considering seven regions located in these climatic zones. The analysis is based on the results of an annual study of a test photovoltaic station installed at the Ufa State Aviation Technical University. Based on the analysis results, temperature characteristics, solar insolation, solar energy conversion efficiency, and specific electricity generation were obtained for each region. The study found that the efficiency of solar energy conversion of photovoltaic modules in climatic zones ranges from 60% to 85% of the nominal value. The average value of solar radiation in the remote northern regions is 810 kWh/m2, in the southern regions it is in the range of 1350-1400 kWh/m2. The technical potential of using solar energy is very high, the most favorable are the subtropical and continental climate zones.

Abstract:
This paper outlines three key processes: 3D modeling based on the technical records, data mapping to objects in the Building Information Modelling (BIM) model, and data extraction from the model. Access to energy is a critical concern on the modern society, but equally important of how the energy is obtained. The methods used should be efficient enough to minimize adverse environmental impact, which holds significant importance in today�s energy production landscape. In the case of non-load-bearing subsoil, high structural loads or special requirements of the building, a deep foundation with drilled piles is required for a planned structure. The structure described in this paper is a deep foundation, utilized for onshore wind turbine design. This type of foundations can support largest wind turbine generators in operation. As the turbines are increasing in size, gravity are approaching to the limits of both their capacity and economical limit. The focus of this research is to provide an accessible and easy-to-use BIM methodology for capturing and managing information derived from the technical documentation, and evidence gathered during the construction phase. The integrated meta data covers information across written parts, drawings, in-situ, and laboratory test results, planning registers, cost registers, sustainability criteria�s identification and application and predicted performance in time of the described elements. Future endeavors will be directed towards automating the process of Building Information Modeling (BIM), by developing custom scripts designed to automatically generate elements for similar structures. The findings contribute to the advancement of BIM methodology as a key tool for guiding informed decision making for green wind farms projects.

Abstract:
A paragraph is a grouping of sentences, a way of carving them up into connected sets so as to reduce the diversity of their thoughts to manageable proportions. Normally readers will expect a paragraph to have a single focus and one role since it is defined as a group of sentences developing a single idea, concept, thought, and topic. Overlong paragraphs, with too many sentences in them, have numerous drawbacks. The text becomes under organized and difficult to follow. However, paragraphs should not be too short. If paragraphs are reduced to just one or two sentences, then they cease to have this organizing rationale and become heteronymous cogs, turning as the argument progresses but not doing any useful work. For English-speaking readers, short paragraphs in technical writing will also make the text look disconnected, fragmented, and uncertain. A paragraph's pattern is important in making an argument look coherent and well organized because it is a unit of thought. In general, a paragraph should make one point, or one component part of a single broader point. Where a paragraph handles miscellaneous unconnected points, as it is sometimes necessary to round out an argument, this role should be explicitly signaled to readers because they will not expect it. The relationship between the ideas in an EST (English for Science and Technology) paragraph and between the items of information and the core generalization is expressed by several techniques. Sometimes the nature of the material the writer has available determines the applied technique, but at other times, the writer makes his own decisions as to the best way of presenting the relationships between his ideas. In the first case, we are dealing with natural techniques, and in the second, with logical techniques, and they are not mutually exclusive.

Abstract:
Computer simulation of technical objects and processes is one of the components of the system of professional training of a modern electromechanics engineer. It has been established that despite the fact that mobile Internet devices (MID) are actively used by electrical engineers, the methods of using them in the process of bachelor in electromechanics training is considered only in some domestic scientific studies. The article highlights the components of the methods of using MID in the formation of the ICT component of the competence of the bachelor in electromechanics in modeling of technical objects, providing for students to acquire basic knowledge in the field of Computer Science and modern ICT and skills to use programming systems, math packages, subroutine libraries, and the like. For processing tabular data, it is proposed to use various freely distributed tools that do not significantly differ in functionality, such as Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, for processing text data – QuickEdit Text Editor, Google Docs, Microsoft Word. For 3D-modeling and viewing the design and technological documentation, the proposed comprehensive use of Autodesk tools in the training process.

Full text
Abstract:
The multiple schema for the classification of soils rely on differing criteria but the major soil science systems, including the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the international harmonized World Reference Base for Soil Resources soil classification systems, are primarily based on inferred pedogenesis. Largely these classifications are compiled from individual observations of soil characteristics within soil profiles, and the vast majority of this pedologic information is contained in nonquantitative text descriptions. We present initial text mining analyses of parsed text in the digitally available USDA soil taxonomy documentation and the Soil Survey Geographic database. Previous research has shown that latent information structure can be extracted from scientific literature using Natural Language Processing techniques, and we show that this latent information can be used to expedite query performance by using syntactic elements and part-of-speech tags as indices. Technical vocabulary often poses a text mining challenge due to the rarity of its diction in the broader context. We introduce an extension to the common English vocabulary that allows for nearly-complete indexing of USDA Soil Series Descriptions.

Abstract:
An analysis of the experience of professional training bachelors of electromechanics in Ukraine and abroad made it possible to determine that one of the leading trends in its modernization is the synergistic integration of various engineering branches (mechanical, electrical, electronic engineering and automation) in mechatronics for the purpose of design, manufacture, operation and maintenance electromechanical equipment. Teaching mechatronics provides for the meaningful integration of various disciplines of professional and practical training bachelors of electromechanics based on the concept of modeling and technological integration of various organizational forms and teaching methods based on the concept of mobility. Within this approach, the leading learning tools of bachelors of electromechanics are mobile Internet devices (MID) – a multimedia mobile devices that provide wireless access to information and communication Internet services for collecting, organizing, storing, processing, transmitting, presenting all kinds of messages and data. The authors reveals the main possibilities of using MID in learning to ensure equal access to education, personalized learning, instant feedback and evaluating learning outcomes, mobile learning, productive use of time spent in classrooms, creating mobile learning communities, support situated learning, development of continuous seamless learning, ensuring the gap between formal and informal learning, minimize educational disruption in conflict and disaster areas, assist learners with disabilities, improve the quality of the communication and the management of institution, and maximize the cost-efficiency. Bachelor of electromechanics competency in modeling of technical objects is a personal and vocational ability, which includes a system of knowledge, skills, experience in learning and research activities on modeling mechatronic systems and a positive value attitude towards it; bachelor of electromechanics should be ready and able to use methods and software/hardware modeling tools for processes analyzes, systems synthesis, evaluating their reliability and effectiveness for solving practical problems in professional field. The competency structure of the bachelor of electromechanics in the modeling of technical objects is reflected in three groups of competencies: general scientific, general professional and specialized professional. The implementation of the technique of using MID in learning bachelors of electromechanics in modeling of technical objects is the appropriate methodic of using, the component of which is partial methods for using MID in the formation of the general scientific component of the bachelor of electromechanics competency in modeling of technical objects, are disclosed by example academic disciplines “Higher mathematics”, “Computers and programming”, “Engineering mechanics”, “Electrical machines”. The leading tools of formation of the general scientific component of bachelor in electromechanics competency in modeling of technical objects are augmented reality mobile tools (to visualize the objects’ structure and modeling results), mobile computer mathematical systems (universal tools used at all stages of modeling learning), cloud based spreadsheets (as modeling tools) and text editors (to make the program description of model), mobile computer-aided design systems (to create and view the physical properties of models of technical objects) and mobile communication tools (to organize a joint activity in modeling).

Abstract:
Objectives. The objective of this Technical Brief is to assess the current use of life cycle assessment (LCA) frameworks in healthcare research and practice, understand the components of those frameworks, review LCA studies that have been conducted, and assess gaps in research and practice to guide future directions. Review methods. A scoping review combined with Key Informant interviews provided the input for the report. We searched a combination of biomedical (PubMed®); environmental (Agricultural &amp; Environmental Science Collection, Environmental Science Database, Environment Index); and technical research (Web of Science, Scopus) databases for this interdisciplinary research topic. Gray literature sources included the research registries ClinicalTrials.gov, National Institutes of Health (NIH) RePORTER, Environmental Protection Agency Health and Environmental Research Online (HERO), European Research Council projects, and the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) for ongoing research. Citation screening involved two independent reviewers who screened full text, supported by machine learning. Data were abstracted in a pilot-tested database. Key Informants included experts in LCA frameworks, healthcare operations, developers of tools for healthcare organizations/providers, researchers, organizational policy, and industry. Findings. Searches identified 5,430 citations, of which 836 were obtained as full text; 178 publications met eligibility criteria. We identified nine LCA frameworks, the majority of which were adapted rather than developed for healthcare, using existing frameworks for LCA on residential construction, financial reporting, health technology assessment, and handprint analysis. The frameworks were published in the last 5 years and were not found to be applied in any other study. In total, we identified 164 LCAs published in the scientific literature, primarily originating in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia. Additional literature originated from Canada and Asian, European, and Latin American countries. Approximately a third of the studies were published by U.S.-based researchers. The studies explored a wide range of topics, from medical devices, products, and surgeries, to emissions from healthcare systems. The majority of studies addressed the full life cycle, from cradle to grave. Key Informants emphasized the importance of LCA to support reduction of healthcare emissions and waste, but noted time and resource limitations for conducting LCAs in clinical practice. The registered studies on frameworks and future research is sparse; we identified eight relevant projects. Conclusion. LCA frameworks were mainly adapted for healthcare and there is a need to develop a healthcare-specific LCA framework. Future research may need to focus on less resource intensive LCA methods to address the multitude of timely decisions that need to be made in routine healthcare operations. Future work should focus on developing scalable solutions that can be rapidly adopted and implemented in disparate healthcare settings. To address gaps, research should include development of a healthcare-specific life cycle inventory database, a healthcare-specific LCA methodology, and study reporting guidelines to ensure robustness of the LCA studies. It is critical for healthcare to understand the sector’s role in climate change, to assess the impacts from healthcare delivery, and to address healthcare industry waste and greenhouse gas emissions.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper focuses on two research problems. The first is to measure the direct impacts of innovation support measures in Brazil, and the second is to test the hypothesis of indirect effects of innovation policies on non-beneficiary firms through the labor mobility channel, whether resulting from direct support programs or indirect support via tax incentives. For this purpose, mobility is defined as the movement of workers in technical-scientific occupations, as identified by Araujo et al. (2009). It is found that, with the exception of a subvention program, direct support in the form of credit or cooperative projects fosters more innovative effort than tax incentives. Nonetheless, direct and tax- based incentives for innovation have different purposes, and sound innovation relies on both types of incentive.

Abstract:
Cruise SO268 is fully integrated into the second phase of the European collaborative JPI-Oceans project MiningImpact and is designed to assess the environmental impacts of deep-sea mining of polymetallic nodules in the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone (CCZ). In particular, the cruise aimed at conducting an independent scientific monitoring of the first industrial test of a pre-protoype nodule collector by the Belgian company DEME-GSR. The work includes collecting the required baseline data in the designated trial and reference sites in the Belgian and German contract areas, a quantification of the spatial and temporal spread of the produced sediment plume during the trials as well as a first assessment of the generated environmental impacts. However, during SO268 Leg 1 DEME-GSR informed us that the collector trials would not take place as scheduled due to unresolvable technical problems. Thus, we adjusted our work plan accordingly by implementing our backup plan. This involved conducting a small-scale sediment plume experiment with a small chain dredge to quantify the spatial and temporal dispersal of the suspended sediment particles, their concentration in the plume as well as the spatial footprint and thickness of the deposited sediment blanket on the seabed.

Full text
Abstract:
The NIJ Technology Working Group’s Operational Requirements (TWG ORs) for Fire and Arson Investigation have included several scientific research needs that require knowledge of the thermophysical properties of materials that are common in the built environment, and therefore likely to be involved in a fire scene. The specific areas of research include: adequate materials property data inputs for accurate computer models, understanding the effect of materials properties on the development and interpretation of fire patterns, and evaluation of incident heat flux profiles to walls and neighboring items in support of fire model validation. These topics certainly address, in a concise way, many of the gaps that limit the analysis capability of fire investigators and engineers. Each of the three aforementioned research topics rely, in part, on accurate knowledge of the physical conditions of a material prior to the fire, how the material will respond to the exposure of heat, and how it will perform once it has ignited. This general information is required to visually assess a fire scene. The same information is needed by investigators to estimate the evolution and consequences of a fire incident using a computer model. Data sources that are currently most commonly used to determine the required properties and model inputs are outdated and incomplete. This report includes the literature review used to provide a technical approach to developing a materials database for use in fire investigations and computational fire models. A summary of the input from the project technical panel is presented which guided the initial selection of materials to be included in the database as well as the selection of test measurements.

Mayfield, Colin. Capacity Development in the Water Sector: the case of Massive Open On-line Courses. United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.53328/mwud6984.

Full text
Abstract:
The Sustainable Development Goal 6 targets are all dependent on capacity development as outlined in SDG 6a “Expand international cooperation and capacity-building support to developing countries in water- and sanitation related activities and programmes “. Massive Open On-line Courses (MOOCs) and distance learning in general have a significant role to play in this expansion. This report examines the role that MOOCs and similar courses could play in capacity development in the water sector. The appearance of MOOCs in 2010/11 led within 4 years to a huge increase in this type of course and in student enrollment. Some problems with student dropout rates, over-estimating the transformational and disruptive nature of MOOCs and uncertain business models remain, but less “massive” MOOCs with more engaged students are overcoming these problems. There are many existing distance learning courses and programmes in the water sector designed to train and/ or educate professionals, operators, graduate and undergraduate students and, to a lesser extent, members of communities dealing with water issues. There are few existing true MOOCs in the water sector. MOOCs could supply significant numbers of qualified practitioners for the water sector. A suite of programmes on water-related topics would allow anyone to try the courses and determine whether they were appropriate and useful. If they were, the students could officially enroll in the course or programme to gain a meaningful qualification or simply to upgrade their qualifications. To make MOOCs more relevant to education and training in the water sector an analysis of the requirements in the sector and the potential demand for such courses is required. Cooperation between institutions preparing MOOCs would be desirable given the substantial time and funding required to produce excellent quality courses. One attractive model for cooperation would be to produce modules on all aspects of water and sanitation dealing with technical, scientific, social, legal and management topics. These should be produced by recognized experts in each field and should be “stand-alone” or complete in themselves. If all modules were made freely available, users or mentors could assemble different MOOCs by linking relevant modules. Then extracts, simplified or less technical versions of the modules could then be used to produce presentations to encourage public participation and for other training purposes. Adaptive learning, where course materials are more tailored to individual students based on their test results and reactions to the material, can be an integral part of MOOCs. MOOCs efficiently provide access to quality courses at low or no cost to students around the world, they enable students to try courses at their convenience, they can be tailored to both professional and technical aspects, and they are very suitable to provide adaptive learning courses. Cooperation between institutions would provide many course modules for the water sector that collectively could provide excellent programmes to address the challenges of capacity development for SDG 6 and other issues within the water sector.

MR (Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) of the Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC), Clinically Feasible Profile. Chair Michael Boss, Dariya Malyarenko, and Daniel Margolis. Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) / Quantitative Imaging Biomarkers Alliance (QIBA), 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1148/qiba/20221215.

Full text
Abstract:
The goal of a QIBA Profile is to help achieve a useful level of performance for a given biomarker. The Claim (Section 2) describes the biomarker performance and is derived from the body of scientific literature meeting specific requirements, in particular test-retest studies. The Activities (Section 3) contribute to generating the biomarker. Requirements are placed on the Actors that participate in those activities as necessary to achieve the Claim. Assessment Procedures (Section 4) for evaluating specific requirements are defined as needed to ensure acceptable performance. Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) and the Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) are being used clinically as qualitative (DWI) and quantitative (ADC) indicators of disease presence, progression or response to treatment. Use of ADC as a robust quantitative biomarker with finite confidence intervals places additional requirements on Sites, Acquisition Devices and Protocols, Field Engineers, Scanner Operators (MR Technologists, Radiologists, Physicists and other Scientists), Image Analysts, Reconstruction Software and Image Analysis Tools. Additionally, due to the intrinsic dependence of measured ADC values on biophysical tissue properties, both the Profile Claims and the associated scan protocols (Section 3.6.2) are organ-specific. All of these are considered Actors involved in Activities of Acquisition Device Pre-delivery and Installation, Subject Handling, Image Data Acquisition, Reconstruction, Registration, ADC map generation, Quality Assurance (QA), Distribution, Analysis, and Interpretation. The requirements addressed in this Profile are focused on achieving ADC values with minimal systematic bias and measurement variability. DISCLAIMER: Technical performance of the MRI system can be assessed using a phantom having known diffusion properties, such as the QIBA DWI phantom. The clinical performance target is to achieve a 95% confidence interval for measurement of ADC with a variable precision depending on the organ being imaged and assuming adequate technical performance requirements are met. While in vivo DWI/ADC measurements have been performed throughout the human body, this Profile focused on four organ systems, namely brain, liver, prostate, and breast as having high clinical utilization of ADC with a sufficient level of statistical evidence to support the Profile Claims derived from the current peer-reviewed literature. In due time, new DWI technologies with proven greater performance levels, as well as more organ systems will be incorporated in future Profiles. This document is intended to help a variety of users: clinicians using this biomarker to aid patient management; imaging staff generating this biomarker; MRI system architects developing related products; purchasers of such products; and investigators designing clinical trials utilizing quantitative diffusion-based imaging endpoints. Note that this document only states requirements specific to DWI to achieve the claim, not requirements that pertain to clinical standard of care. Conforming to this Profile is secondary to proper patient care.
