Many visions of the future predict a world with pervasive computing, where computing services and resources permeate the environment. In these visions, people will want to execute a service on any available device without worrying about whether the service has been tailored for the device. We believe that it will be difficult to create services that can execute well on the wide variety of devic...

Visions for future space exploration have long term science missions in sight, resulting in the need for sustainable missions. Survivability is a critical property of sustainable systems and may be addressed through autonomicity, an emerging paradigm for selfmanagement of future computer-based systems based on inspiration from the human autonomic nervous system. This paper examines some of the ...

 In this paper an applied problem, where the response of interest is the number of success in a specific experiment, is considered and by various visions is studied. The effects of outlier values of response on results of a regression analysis are so important to be studied. For this reason, using diagnostic methods, outlier response values are recognized. It is shown that use of arc-sine ...

I have discussed, from my vantage point as a public health specialist, areas for emphasis in control and prevention of nosocomial infections. Surveillance is the key to all control and prevention programs. With the constraints of resources and increasing responsibilities, infection control personnel have to be innovative, inventive, and imaginative in their approach to surveillance. The princip...

In a recent effort to develop the individual-opportunity nexus, Ramoglou and McMullen (2022) argue that extant conceptualizations of opportunities fail because they reify by engaging in “thing-talk”. Their proposed alternative ignores concrete things reinterpreting nexus terms confident entrepreneurs (who imagine world-states) world-states (that are possible or not). But, regardless formulation...
