The importance attached by project managers to project success criteria and the associated rates of project success were assessed for different types of projects, industries and traits of project managers. 959 responses to a web-based survey showed that importance attached to project success criteria and project success rates differ by industry, project complexity and the age and nationality of...

MOTIVATION Advancements in high-throughput technology have allowed researchers to examine the genetic etiology of complex human traits in a robust fashion. Although genome-wide association studies have identified many novel variants associated with hundreds of traits, a large proportion of the estimated trait heritability remains unexplained. One hypothesis is that the commonly used statistical...

I. I n t r o d u c t i o n The purpose of the SEQUOIA 2000 project is to build a better computing environment for global change researchers, hereafter referred to as SEQUOIA 2000 "clients." Global change researchers investigate issues of global warming, the Earth's radiation balance, the oceans' role in climate, ozone depletion and its effect on ocean productivity, snow hydrology and hydrochemi...

BACKGROUND While in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Australia, higher education and research institutions are widely engaged with the Athena SWAN Charter for Women in Science to advance gender equality, empirical research on this process and its impact is rare. This study combined two data sets (free- text comments from a survey and qualitative interviews) to explore the range of experiences a...

Athena used to think that neonates are altogether a different species than Homo sapiens. For example, they are poikilothermic in contrast to homeothermic adult human beings. Inguinal hernia is yet another proof of this philosophical assertion. Herniotomy, a minor affair in grown-up children, is often a serious issue in newborn especially when they are premature. Neonatal inguinal hernia is also...

The Athena Startup Kit (ask), is an interactive front-end to the Atlas software framework (athena). Written in python, a very effective “glue” language, it is build on top of the, in principle unrelated, code repository, build, configuration, debug, binding, and analysis tools. Ask automates many error-prone tasks that are otherwise left to the end-user, thereby pre-empting a whole category of ...
