To determine the influence of knowledge schemata on inhibitory processes we analysed how the typicality of the actions of an event modulated retrieval-induced forgetting (RIF). Participants were presented with a realistic videotape of a bank robbery. Based on a normative study, high- and low-typicality actions of the event were determined. After watching the video, participants practised retrie...

data envelopment analysis (dea) measures the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. dea-based malmquist productivity index measures the productivity change over time. we propose a dynamic dea model involving network structure in each period within the framework a dea. we have previously published the network dea (ndea) and the dynamic dea ...

The key to successful long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) is permanent and safe access to peritoneal cavity. The two most commonly used Tenckoff catheters for PD are the straight and coiled catheters. The present study was undertaken to assess the catheter survival, catheter associated infections, and all cause mortality and to compare the straight with coiled catheters in PD. During April 1997-...

A brief summary of the basic ideas of Topological Geometrodynamics (TGD), its recent state, its applications, and its theoretical challenges is given with a special emphasis on the most recent developments. Parton level formulation of quantum TGD as an almost topological quantum field theory using light-like 3-surfaces as fundamental objects allows a detailed understanding of generalized super-...

This document presents an architecture for QoS-aware middleware platforms. We present a general framework for control, and specialise this framework for QoS provisioning in the middleware context. We identify different alternatives for control, and we elaborate the technical issues related to controlling the internal characteristics of object middleware. We illustrate our QoS control approach b...
