This paper focuses on the design of a controller for a low temperature ethanol steam reformer for the production of hydrogen to feed a Protonic Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell. It describes different control structures for the reformer and treats the control structure selection of this Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system. For each control structure, decentralised 2x2 controllers with...

This paper deals with two main topics. The first part provides data on the life of Andreas Vesalius, a scholar and anatomist of the 16th century, and describes the environment in which he lived and worked. It highlights his personality of a great doctor and teacher and points out the importance of his scientific methods and techniques as opposed to speculative methods that were prevalent in the...

The research analyzed employers innovative behavior of the organization and importance of influencing factors on it. As research methods were chosen method of structured interrogation, the method of pairwise comparisons, expert evaluation and correlation and regression analysis. The research results were gender difference in innovative employer behavior: more favorable innovation perception in ...

This paper reports three normative models for project-based learning (PjBL) in university-industry relations in computing. The models are inspired by normative theories on business ethics, and are designated as archetypes that describe the objectives and responsibilities of parties in collaboration: 1) The Slaver model prescribes that a university should sell students as slaves for business and...

Transfer learning and semi-supervised learning attract considerable attention since the traditional machine learning methods yield insufficient performance in many practical applications with scarce labeled data. In such cases, knowledge transfer from a related domain or information extraction of unlabeled data, if done properly, would significantly upgrade the classifier by avoiding costly lab...

Recent findings in stem cell biology have opened a new window in regenerative medicine. The endometrium possesses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) called endometrial stem cells (EnSCs) having specific regenerative properties linked to adult stem cells. They contribute in tissue remodeling and engineering and were shown to have immuno-modulating effects. Many clinical trials were undertaken to asce...
