ELECT An ultra-low-power tunable bump circuit is presented. It incorporates a novel wide-input-range tunable pseudo-differential transconductor linearised using the drain resistances of saturated transistors. Measurement results show that the transconductor has a 5 V differential input range with <20% of linearity error. The bump circuit demonstrates tunability of the centre, width and height, ...

In this paper we deal with the Windy Rural Postman Problem. This problem generalizes several important Arc Routing Problems and has interesting real-life applications. Here, we present several heuristics whose study has lead to the design of a Scatter Search algorithm for the Windy Rural Postman Problem. Extensive computational experiments over different sets of instances, with sizes up to 988 ...

This study examines the influence of CSR on employee green behaviour through well-being and personal environmental norms. Furthermore, it moderating role hotel strategy these relationships. The proposed model was validated using 988 hotels’ employees. findings revealed that is a key driver behaviour. Employee norms partially mediate this relationship. Personal indicate moderates enrich our know...

We present results of the investigation star LkHα 324/B, which belongs to starforming dark cloud LDN 988. Based on high resolution spectroscopy, we determined its fundamental parameters as Teff=11,175±130 K, log(L*/L⊙)=1.87±0.07. According these parameters, found that 324/B is a pre-main sequence with mass M≈3M⊙ and age t≈2.9 Myr. Recently, it underwent phase actively accreting Herbig Ae/Be sta...

Methods: Patients from 6 sites in the United States who were estimated to have 6 months or less to live were interviewed in person and reinterviewed 2 to 6 months later. Their caregivers were interviewed separately. At the end of the interviews, patients and caregivers were asked how stressful and how helpful the interview had been. Of 1131 eligible patients, 988 (87.4%) were interviewed, and o...

The minimum requirement for mitochondrial apoptosis has been controversial ever since the discovery of BCL-2 as a cell death regulator. In this issue ofGenes&Development, O'Neill and colleagues (pp. 973-988) end a long-standing debate by creating a cellular system free of BCL-2 family proteins, thereby identifying the outer mitochondrial membrane rather than BH3-only proteins as the only requir...
