Let γm,n denote the size of a minimum dominating set in the m× n grid graph. For the square grid graph, exact values for γn,n have earlier been published for n 6 19. By using a dynamic programming algorithm, the values of γm,n for m,n 6 29 are here obtained. Minimum dominating sets for square grid graphs up to size 29× 29 are depicted. ∗Supported by the Academy of Finland, Grant No. 132122 and ...

A broad definition of community practice has implications for how occupational therapy services are defined, delivered, and funded. The historical foundations of occupational therapy support an expansion into health promotion and prevention programming that is based in the community. Moving into these roles opens up an array of funding possibilities. It may also require developing new partnersh...

This paper presents the MultiBrasil team experience in the Retrieving Diverse Social Images Task at MediaEval 2017. The teams were required to develop a diversification approach for social image retrieval, enhanced with visual summarization. Our proposal for relevance improvement relies on text and credibility-based reranking and rank aggregation. For diversification, we use diversity-oriented ...

Planning for the optimal use of productive resources in agricultural systems leads to the conservation in addition to the promotion of farmers’ socio-economical conditions. Being certain or precise in any decision making in agricultural planning is impossible. Fuzzy mathematical programming techniques, developed in recent decades, are the most appropriate and applicable approaches to include th...

This paper presents a framework for school-based health promotion and prevention programming that can serve to guide planning and action. Rather than separating specific prevention programs (such as violence prevention, substance abuse prevention, etc.) from more broad-based youth development efforts, this approach provides an integrated framework that: (a) identifies benchmarks of healthy deve...

The process of metabolic re-programing is linked to the activation of oncogenes and/or suppression of tumour suppressor genes, which are regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs). The interplay between oncogenic transformation-driven metabolic re-programming and modulation of aberrant miRNAs further established their critical role in the initiation, promotion and progression of cancer by creating a tumor...

Tom and ApiGen are two complementary tools which simplify the definition and the manipulation of abstract datatypes. Tom is an extension of Java which adds pattern matching facilities independently of the used data-structure. ApiGen is a generator of abstract syntax tree implementations which interacts naturally with Tom. In this paper, we show how Eclipse can be extended to support the develop...

In this chapter, we present a brief review of the developmental literature linking healthy adjustment to five core competencies: (1) positive sense of self, (2) self-control, (3) decision-making skills, (4) a moral system of belief, and (5) prosocial connectedness. A central premise of this chapter and the rest of the volume is that promoting mastery of social and emotional core competencies pr...

Increasingly, the potential for school mental health programming to enhance the well-being of children and youth is being recognized and realized. When evidence-based practices in mental health promotion and prevention are adopted in a whole school manner, students show positive social emotional and academic benefits. These findings have stimulated a proliferation of mental well-being programmi...
