Building on theories of person-environment fit and on the pattern approach, we hypothesized that emergent leaders in multicultural teams score higher than non-leaders in terms of the three global characteristics, of cultural intelligence, global identity and openness to cultural diversity. We tested this hypothesis on a sample of 317 MBA students who worked on a four-week joint project in virtu...

Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis IPLA 972 was shown to produce a bacteriocin which had a bactericidal effect on sensitive lactococci. Production of lactococcin 972 reached a maximum during the late-exponential phase of growth. The bacteriocinogenic activity was heat-sensitive, active in the pH range 40-9.0 and showed low susceptibility to proteases. Purification of the bacteriocin rendered a si...

We studied the structure and the dynamics of a nanocolloidal silica gel dispersed in an organic solvent [octylcyanobiphenyl (8CB)] as a function of the silica density by x-ray intensity fluctuation spectroscopy (XIFS). The silica density of the dispersed aerosil gel samples ranged from 0.03 to 0.20 g cm-3 and the autocorrelation of the silica scattering was probed over the q range from 0.03 to ...

Surface solid dispersion with insoluble carriers is considered a recently developed technique, widely applied for the enhancement of solubility and dissolution of poorly water soluble drugs. The objective of this research article is to study the effect of surface solid dispersion of ketoprofen with colloidal silicon dioxide (Aerosil 200) on the dissolution rate. Surface solid dispersion (Adsorb...

The increasing use of digital equipment in control in the last half century made a tremendous impact on controller design methodology. On the other hand, it had little affect on the control problem formulation: the control goals to a large extent still remain those of the analog world. The goal of this paper is to introduce and justify a new approach to sampled-data control system design, which...

Matching a pair of affine invariant regions between images results in estimation of the affine transformation between the regions. However, the parameters of the affine transformations are rarely used directly for matching images, mainly due to the lack of an appropriate error metric of the distance between them. In this paper we derive a novel metric for measuring the distance between affine t...
