The rapid economic growth of China features boom of the non-state sector and relative stagnancy of the state-owned enterprises (SOEs). These macro statistics themselves do not justify the popular belief that non SOEs will definitely continue to outperform SOEs and that accordingly SOEs should be transferred to other types of ownership as soon as possible. The performances of both economic secto...

A unique observational data set was used to explore quality at the point of service in after-school programs. Staff practices in after-school settings were represented on a series of unidimensional scales closely indexed to staff behavior. In order to account for heterogeneity of staff performances, pattern-centered methods were used to construct profiles of common staff practices. Results reve...

this experiment was conducted with broiler chickens to evaluate the effects of high and low swelling bentonite (natural and processed by cuso4) supplementation in diets on performance and carcass traits. a total of 300 day-old aryan broiler’s chicks were used in a completely randomized design with 5 dietary treatments. six pen replicates of 10 chicks were assigned to each of five dietary treatm...

The purpose of this study was to develop an analysis concerning the behavior of variables aimed at characterizing growth and motor performance in relation to chronological age and gender, attempting to establish the level of importance of morphological aspects in modification of functional-motor activity in schoolchildren from the city of Londrina, Paraná, Brazil. The sample was composed of 1,1...

Three cationic iridium(III) complexes [Ir(ppy)₂(phen)][PF₆] (C1), [Ir(ppy)₂(phen)]₂SiF₆ (C2) and [Ir(ppy)₂(phen)]₂TiF₆ (C3) (ppy: 2-phenylpyridine, phen: 1, 10-phenanthroline) using different anions were synthesized and characterized by ¹H Nuclear magnetic resonance (¹HNMR), mass spectra (MS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra and element analysis (EA). After the ultraviolet visible (UV...

This paper studies the h-index-based academy credit evaluation based on fractional theory. The ACE model based on h-index was proposed and implemented. Learning from many study of academic performance evaluation, the paper proposed an ACE model emphasizing the credit from academic experts, with some new methods and indictors such as large-scale h-index extracting approach, citation recommendati...

This paper proposes the optimal feedback control method using magnetic force for crystal growth dynamics of semiconductor materials. The system model considered here is described by the continuity, momentum, energy, mass transport, and magnetic induction equations. Receding horizon control is a kind of optimal feedback control in which the control performance over a finite future is optimized w...

conclusions chronic and moderate malnutrition did not influence the cognitive function, the intelligence quotient, and the impulsivity index. background undernutrition is the most common cause of growth retardation in developing countries. we aimed to assess the effect of undernutrition on cognition, intelligence quotient, and impulsivity index of 7-11 year-old children in shiraz, southern iran...
