Knowledge of the spectrum and incidence of paediatric rheumatologic diseases is important to aid in the advocacy for making paediatric rheumatology more visible and to improve access to the services...

Abstract Conductive‐bridge random access memory (CBRAM) emerges as a promising candidate for next‐generation and storage device. However, CBRAMs are prone to degenerate fail during electrochemical metallization processes. To address this issue, herein we propose self‐repairability strategy CBRAMs. Amorphous NbSe 2 was designed the resistive switching layer, with Cu Au top bottom electrodes, res...

The International Network for the Availability of Scientifi c Publications (INASP) was established by the International Council for Science in 1992 to provide support for networking between information providers and users, particularly to bridge the information divide between the developed and developing world. Since 1992 INASP has worked, in response to requests, to develop its activities for ...

In this paper we present a graphical UML-based notation for writing ODP actions and policies, which can be directly mapped to Maude specifications. Our approach may introduce important benefits to the (usually ambiguous) UML specifications, such as formal support, provision for rigorous specifications, and easy access to Maude’s toolkit. We have developed a tool for automating the translation p...

The Alberta Cardiac Access Collaborative (ACAC) is a joint initiative of Alberta's health system to improve access to adult cardiac services across the patient journey. ACAC has created new care delivery models and implemented best practices across Alberta in four streams across the continuum: heart attack, patient navigation, heart failure and arrhythmia. Emergency medical providers, nurses, p...

The paper describes the results of the EU FP7 EDGI project concerning how to extend gLite VOswith public and institutional BOINC desktop grids. Beyond simply showing the integration architecture components and services, the main emphasis is on how this integrated architecture can efficiently support parameter study applications, based on the so-calledmetajob concept created by the EDGI project....
