Business Process Management (BPM) in recent years has become a highest priority area for most organizations. Since this concept is multidisciplinary, success in this endeavour requires considering different factors. A number of studies have been conducted to identify these factors; however, most are limited to the introduction of high-level factors or to the identification of the means of succe...

The authors estimate weighted mean values for nine information processing parameters for older adults using the Card, Moran, and Newell (1983) Model Human Processor model. The authors validate a subset of these parameters by modeling two mobile phone tasks using two different phones and comparing model predictions to a sample of younger (N = 20; M-sub(age) = 20) and older (N = 20; M-sub(age) = ...

We propose an adaptive reversible data hiding method with superior visual quality and capacity in which an adaptive generalized difference expansion (AGDE) method is applied to an integer-to-integer subband transform (I2I-ST). I2I-ST performs the reversible subband transform and the AGDE method is a state-of-the-art method of reversible data hiding. The results of experiments we performed objec...

Change of direction (CoD) ability is critical for the success athletes in many sports. The purpose this study was to perform a principal component analysis using 9 CoD tests order reveal possible subcomponents ability, which could aid practitioners test selection. Male and female kinesiology students (n = 76) performed all 30-m sprint quasi-randomized, counterbalanced order. Three components ma...

The need to develop green steelmaking techniques has led the replacement of reducing agents such as CO with H2. H2 and N2/H2 mixtures can be used for carbothermal reduction iron ore. In this study, we investigated swelling index ore pellets in a forming gas (N2/H2) atmosphere at temperatures 700–1000 °C compared it that pure experimental results showed increases increasing temperature both atmo...
