writers ensure the expected (re)construction of concepts in the mind of the audience through effective signposting of the inevitably linear linguistic stream, which is a main aspect of metadiscourse called interactive metadiscourse. in this study, the use of interactive metadiscourse markers in research articles was investigated to examine any probable difference existing between different disc...

It’s the inevitably choice for the enterprises to low carbon production, which is the important way to cope with the carbon limitation in the future and to gain competitiveness. Based on the factor analysis of 265 business managers in Jiangsu Province, low carbon production behavior questionnaire is developed by present paper. Results of test show that this questionnaire has good reliability an...

We sketch a derivation of abstract scattering theory from the microscopic rst principles deened by Bohmian mechanics. We emphasize the importance of the ux-across-surfaces theorem for the derivation, and of randomness in the impact parameter of the initial wave function|even for an, inevitably inadequate, orthodox derivation. 1 Dedicated to Joel Lebowitz, with love and admiration, for his 70th ...

It is difficult to disagree with the general argument that successful health reform requires a significant degree of policy capacity or that all players in the policy game need to move beyond self-interested advocacy. However, an overly broad definition of policy capacity is a problem. More important perhaps, health reform inevitably requires not just policy capacity but political leadership an...

In this discussion of Kohlenberg's article it is asserted that the psychotherapist always treats a person not a passive organism and that the therapist's moral values inevitably influence his interactions with the patient, regardless of whether the therapist's stance is made explicit. Ultimately, all therapies are seen as attempts at persuading a thinking and feeling person to behave differently.

Categorisation is an inherent feature of much individual and collective work. Filing, coding, sorting, collating and comparing inevitably rely on schemes by which items can be categorised. Technical systems introduce a range of mechanisms for categorisation, from simple file systems to intricate database technologies, and these systems are deployed into settings in which categorisation work is ...

Global context must inevitably involve not only correlation of forces and interests of major world powers, but as well coordination of interests and actions of major international organizations. Regional inter-state organizations recognized (under credentials of the UN Charter Chapter VIII) as regional collective security providers are of special importance for the effectiveness and “harmony” w...

Aprogramming style basedon concurrentobjects arisesalmost inevitably in languages where processes communicate by exchanging data on channels. Using the Pict language as an experimental testbed, we introduce a simple object-based programming style and compare three techniques for controlling concurrency between methods in this setting: explicit locking, a standard choice operator, and a more ref...

Reinforcement learning (RL) is an attractive machine learning discipline in the context of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This paper focuses on the intersection between RL and AGI by first speculating on what are the missing components that would facilitate the realization of RL-based AGI. Based on this paradigm, we touch on several of the key moral and practical issues that will inevit...

You expect crises to arise in the course of your caring for patients. But, unexpectedly and inevitably, some crucial moments can involve your responsibility to report ethical breaches by your colleagues. Unwelcome, uninvited, prompted by nothing but circumstance and acts of good will, such moments will challenge and partly define you— in your own eyes and, quite possibly, those of your professi...
