The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) offers challenges and opportunities in rehabilitative care for returning clients to previous employment after medical illness or injury. The process of work reintegration begins with assessing the client's rehabilitation potential to return to work. When clinical reasoning indicates a good rehabilitation potential, a job site analysis (JSA) is conducted...

Background A joint symbolic analysis (JSA) is applied to assess the strength of the cardiovascular coupling from spontaneous beat-to-beat variability of the heart period (HP) and the systolic arterial pressure (SAP) during an experimental protocol inducing a gradual baroreflex unloading evoked by postural change (i.e. graded head-up tilt). Method: The adopted JSA can quantify the degree of as...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the angle formed between the proximal most screw through the locking compression plate-proximal lateral tibia (LCP PLT) and the joint line, and to evaluate if this angle can be used intraoperatively as an assessment tool to determine normal alignment of the tibia in the coronal plane. MATERIALS AND METHODS There are two...

In this paper we look at the relationship between crime and economic incentives in a different way to other work in this area. We look at changes in unemployment benefits and the imposition of benefit sanctions as a means of studying the way that people on the margins of crime may react to economic incentives. The paper relies on a quasiexperimental setting induced by the introduction of the Jo...

OBJECTIVE We utilized job safety analysis (JSA) and hazard identification for work accident prevention in Para rubber wood sawmills, which aimed to investigate occupational health risk exposures and assess the health hazards at sawmills in the Trang Province, located in southern Thailand. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study which included a walk-through survey, JSA, occupational risk...

The Long-Term Effects of Job Search Requirements: Evidence from the UK JSA Reform This paper investigates long-term returns from unemployment compensation, exploiting variation from the UK JSA reform of 1996, which implied a major increase in job search requirements for eligibility and in the related administrative hurdle. Search theory predicts that such changes should raise the proportion of ...

Résumé : It is generally thought that agents in a multiagent system should be capable of communicating in a highlevel, speech acts-based, agent communication language (ACL), for instance FIPA ACL. Many agent programming languages (APLs) such as Jack, JASON, JADE, etc., support communication in such ACLs, i.e., the production and reception/processing of ACL messages. They also support the specif...

In this paper it is shown how to utilize Java arrays for matrix computations. We discuss the disadvantages of Java arrays when used as two-dimensional array for dense matrix computation, and how to improve the performance. We show how to create eÆcient dynamic data structure for sparse matrix computation using Java's native arrays. We construct a data structure for large sparse matrices that is...
