Dq Metrics: a Novel Approach to Quantify
The importance of customer relationship management (CRM) has increased during the last decade. Thus information systems and particularly the quality of customer data are highly relevant for conducting CRM efficiently. Due to the importance of using up-to-date data, this paper analyzes how the data quality dimension timeliness can be quantified. Based on several requirements (e.g. normalization ...
متن کاملStudies on bacterial resistance to inhibition and killing by phenol.
Although most investigators agree that the action of phenol is due to some general chemical or physico-chemical mechanism (in recent publications, e.g., lysis of cell walls in gram positive forms, Gale and Taylor, 1947; denaturation of enzyme proteins, Fogg and Lodge, 1945) rather than to a particular metabolic interference by the compound, the eistence of naturally resistant strains (Harde and...
متن کاملDiminished killing of pneumococci by pristinamycin demonstrated by time-kill studies.
Pristinamycin is a synergistic combination of streptogramin A (pristinamycin IIA) and streptogramin B (pristinamycin IB) compounds, licensed in France and some other European countries. This oral antibiotic has been considered as an alternative treatment for infections due to penicillinand macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae because streptogramins remain active against streptococci and...
متن کاملKilling Horizons Kill Horizon Degrees
Frequently it is argued that the microstates responsible for the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy should arise from some physical degrees of freedom located near or on the black hole horizon. In this Essay we elucidate that instead entropy may emerge from the conversion of physical degrees of freedom, attached to a generic boundary, into unobservable gauge degrees of freedom attached to the horizon. ...
متن کاملComparative in vitro pharmacodynamics of imipenem and meropenem against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
MICs are commonly used to assess the in vitro activities of antimicrobial agents; however, they provide minimal information on the pattern of bacterial activities. Time-kill studies with extensive sampling allow assessment of both the rate and extent of bacterial killing and regrowth. We compared imipenem and meropenem by both MIC-MBC testing and a time-kill study with P. aeruginosa 27853. In t...
