This position paper proposes to investigate the use of logs as a resource to (re)design interactive systems. By understanding what information should be captured in application logs and using mining techniques to identify the users’ behavior patterns, we hope to extract valuable information to inform HCI (re)design decisions.

Finishing textiles was widely used to impart various functionalities into fabric substrates, such as anti-microbial finishing, UV-protection, water repellent, self-cleaning and many others. However, the chemical finishing involves use of large quantities energy, chemicals, water. Some finishes in wastewater can be harmful humans, presence chemicals finished cause skin irritation some people, so...

The transition-metal-catalyzed denitrogenative transannulation of pyridotriazoles represents an efficient method for the synthesis of fused nitrogen-containing heterocycles. This method is based on the ability of pyridotriazole to exist in an equilibrium with diazo-form A, which can be trapped with Rh(II) to form the reactive pyridyl carbene intermediate B, capable of reacting with terminal alk...

This study presents a position model for evaluating the image of tourists a destination. The evaluation is based on secondary data from 1999 through 2004, using a database composed of 20,023 respondents. Data are analyzed using the K-Means data mining method. Analytical results indicate that the destination image position (DIP) model is established, and four groups of visitor are identified. Th...

Explanation of IAOMT position: This work comprises a valuable addition of science on the use of Titanium on the human body. The most toxic interactions appear to be the nanoparticulate use followed by its electrochemical interactions and lastly by its immunological impact. The IAOMT position is to be cautious in its use as much as is reasonable and encourage sensitivity testing before using it ...

Rigid inflatable gastrostomy (RIG) tubes are widely used in contemporary clinical practice for a variety of indications. Insertion of RIG tubes is associated with a high technical success rate and low incidence of mortality. In this case report, a procedural pitfall associated with intraperitoneal-extragastric malposition is described. Rigorous assessment of abdominal radiographs, as well as aw...

A new way of measuring planar position for micrometric and sub-micrometric applications is presented with a mono sensing electrode and hybrid-frequency excitation. The sensing theory and operation principle are described and summarized, and a printed circuit board (PCB) sensor prototype is built and tested. It is shown by the experimental results that a very simple structure and geometric relat...

Synthesis of 2,3- and 3,4-cyclopentenopyridines, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinolines and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinolines from 1,2,4-triazine derivatives is reported. Introduction of an alpha-functionalized methyl substituent (e.g. arylsulphonyl, sulphonamide, sulphonic acid ester) into position 3- or 6- of triazines by vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen and subsequent alkylation with alky...
