Purpose: The purpose of this research is to examine intercorrelational relations among the selfreport behavioral construct Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) 5X transformational and transactional subscales and the Tacit Knowledge for Military Leaders Inventory (TKML) leader-level specific situational judgment test scenarios. Design/methodology/approach: Two leadership measures, the beha...

The tetQ-rteA-rteB operon of the Bacteroides conjugative transposon CTnDOT is responsible for tetracycline control of the excision and transfer of CTnDOT. Previous studies revealed that tetracycline control of this operon occurred at the translational level and involved a hairpin structure located within the 130-base leader sequence that lies between the promoter of tetQ and the start codon of ...

Leader election protocols are a fundamental building block for replicated distributed services. They ease the design of leader-based coordination protocols that tolerate failures. In partially synchronous systems, designing a leader election algorithm, that does not permit multiple leaders while the system is unstable, is a complex task. As a result many production systems use third-party distr...

The non-cooperative two-stage network DEA approach requires the assumption as to whether the first or second stage is the leader or follower. In many real-world situations such as evaluating sustainable design performances, however, information about the leader (dominant) stage is often unavailable as a firm ׳s internal decision process may not be observable for outsiders. In the current study,...

was a graduate of Edinburgh University in 1927. He became a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh, and was very proud when he was elected Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (ad eundem) in 1959. In addition, Mr. Paul became a Fellow of the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain, and a member of the council. He was a member and past president of the Moynihan Chiru...

All ribosomal RNAs are preceded by leader sequences not present in the final ribosome particles. The highly conserved leader sequences of bacterial rRNAs are known to be important for the folding and assembly of functional ribosomes. Very likely transient binding of the leader to mature parts of the 16S RNA occurs during transcription. To better understand the mechanistic details of these funct...

Charisma is often seen as a positive leadership attribute, yet many studies give it a “mixed report card,” finding it less valuable than popularly thought. This paper develops a model to explain why. The key insight is that presenting the cold hard truth is often incompatible with simultaneously firing up followers—a tradeoff exists between information and inspiration; a temptation exists to hi...

With the implementation of New Curriculum Reform in China, both schools and teachers are empowered with more right autonomy making instructional decisions. However, previous literature related to teachers’ curriculum leadership (CL) remains sparse. The purpose this paper is explore feasibility investigating how enacted from perspectives teacher leaders. It employed review Chinese studies engage...

Leader election is a basic symmetry breaking problem in distributed computing. All nodes of a network have to agree on a single node, called the leader. If the nodes of the network have distinct labels, then agreeing on a single node means that all nodes have to output the label of the elected leader. If the nodes are anonymous, the task of leader election is formulated as follows: every node o...

     This research has attempted to measure the parameters of barchan dunes as one of the desert landforms. This has been conducted by a field survey using cartographic techniques. In the field, two barchan dunes have completely been surveyed by total station equipment. Using the sample points a novel method has been devised to measure the barchans parameters. The method is mainly based on geom...
