It is now well known that there are various technologies for broadband access providing high-speed Internet access and triple-play services including data, voice, and video. Most well-established broadband access platforms now are digital subscriber line (DSL)-based and the Cable Modem-based. It is generally agreed that fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) provides the bandwidth and flexibility in upgrades...

The mental imagination of (social) actions has been shown to follow a left-to-right trajectory, with the thematic agent associated left position (Spatial Agency Bias, Suitner & Maass in Advances Experimental Social Psychology, 53, 2016, p. 245–301). For example, individuals asked choose picture that visualizes sentence “Tom kicks George” tend an image where agent, Tom, is positioned on left-han...

This article examined whether semantic indeterminacy plays a role in comprehension of complex structures such as object relative clauses. Study 1 used a gated sentence completion task to assess which alternative interpretations are dominant as the relative clause unfolds; Study 2 compared reading times in object relative clauses containing different animacy configurations to unambiguous passive...

Motivated by the huge data transmission capacity required for multimedia communications, passive optical network (PON) based on fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) is considered an emerging access network technology to solve the last mile problem of communications. A typical PON system is basically a point-to-multipoint (PtMP) optical network with no active elements in the signal path. Based on TDMA, this...

Researchers are of the belief that employee voice has favorable effects for both the employee and the organization. However, the effect of employee voice on creativity, and the process through which it influences creativity, has hitherto received little attention. This study aimed at investigating the relationship between perceived employee voice and creativity. Employees of three premier dairy...

3D Printing In article number 2208365, Rihan Hai, Cheng Sun, and co-workers report a method for printing the key optical optomechanical components of miniature accommodating microscope in 50 min less than $4. Synergizing built-in voice-coil-motor compliant optomechanics facilitates focus stacking functionality extending imaging depth. enables digitized component manufacturing, part-count reduct...

Abstract Background Health care access is an important driver of population health, and factors beyond health also drive outcomes. Recognizing the importance social determinants (SDOH), different actors in care, public service sectors are increasingly collaborating to improve outcomes communities. To support such collaboration, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation developed a cross-sector alignment t...
