摘要： With the rapid development of cities, heterogeneous urban cyber-physical systems are designed to improve citizens' experience, e.g., navigation and delivery service. However, the integration of services is not designed for disruptive events, an oversight that has rippling effects on service quality. For example, urban transportation systems consist of multiple transport modes that have complementary characteristics of capacities, speeds, and costs, facilitating smooth passenger transfers by planned schedules. Such integration may experience significantly increased delays during disruptions. Current solutions rely on a substitute service to transport passengers from and to affected areas using ad-hoc schedules and static routes, which are inefficient and do not utilize mobility patterns of mobile systems, e.g., dynamic passenger demand. To coordinate heterogeneous transportation systems under disruptions, we design a service to automatically select and integrate part of three systems (subway, bus, and taxi) using systems' mobility patterns, e.g., predicted supply and demand. The service is presented in a normal version, eRoute, considering both subway and bus, and in a version taking taxis into account, called enhanced eRoute. We implement and evaluate eRoute with datasets including subway, bus and taxi, and a fare collection system. The data-driven evaluation results show that eRoute improves the ratio of served passengers per time interval by up to 11.5 times and reduces the average traveling time by up to 82.1 percent compared with existing solutions.

摘要： Analyzing dynamic information networks, which contain evolving objects and links, to meet users' various needs has attracted much attention in recent years. For sales companies, recruiting staff who are socialites would help to increase sales volume since such staff often sell more. For universities, employing active collaborators who are productive and well connected to many different scholars over time could bring many benefits to their development. However, no previous work has focused on the discovery of socialites and active collaborators who are worthy of investment in reality. In this paper, we advocate a new concept of attractive individuals to model such special objects. We also introduce the concept of attractive groups to represent groups of well-connected attractive individuals. We analyze the complexity of the attractive individual and group search problems. A time and space efficient algorithm is presented to detect attractive individuals. Furthermore, three algorithms are respectively proposed to find top-$k$k representative attractive groups. Experiments on 6 real-world datasets show high performance of our methods and the significance of attractive individuals and groups in reality.

摘要： 随着经济全球化纵深发展,国际话语权逐渐成为衡量各国国际地位的重要工具。政治话语作为国际话语中的特殊部分,往往蕴含着浓厚的意识形态色彩。批评性话语分析属于现代语言学和话语分析的分支,主要以Halliday系统功能语法为理论基础,主张在社会背景下剖析各类大众话语。目前有许多研究聚焦于种族歧视类新闻话语分析且已趋向成熟。本文选取美国总统Donald Trump和Joe Biden的就职演讲,以系统功能语法中及物性、转换、情态和分类为工具进行批评性话语分析,旨在揭示政治话语与意识形态之间的关系。

关键词： Students  

摘要： Although different organizations have defined policies towards diversity in academia, many argue that minorities are still disadvantaged in university admissions due to biases. Extensive research has been conducted on detecting partiality patterns in the academic community. However, in the last few decades, limited research has focused on assessing gender and nationality biases in graduate admission results of universities. In this study, we collected a novel and comprehensive dataset containing information on approximately 14,000 graduate students majoring in computer science (CS) at the top 25 North American universities. We used statistical hypothesis tests to determine whether there is a preference for students' gender and nationality in the admission processes. In addition to partiality patterns, we discuss the relationship between gender/nationality diversity and the scientific achievements of research teams. Consistent with previous studies, our findings show that there is no gender bias in the admission of graduate students to research groups, but we observed bias based on students' nationality. © 2023, CC BY.

关键词： Islamic geometric patterns   Structural   Sustainable   Aesthetic-based principles   Application-based principles   Computer science  

摘要： Currently, there is a tendency to use Islamic Geometric Patterns (IGPs) as important identities and cultural elements of building design in the Middle East. Despite high demand, lack of information about the potential of IGPs principles have led to formal inspiration in the design of existing buildings. Many research studies have been carried out on the principles of IGPs. However, comprehensive studies relating to new possibilities, such as structure-based, sustainable-based, and aesthetic-based purposes, developed by computer science and related technologies, are relatively rare. This article reviews the state-of-the-art knowledge of IGPs, provides a survey of the main principles, presents the status quo, and identifies gaps in recent research directions. Finally, future prospects are discussed by focussing on different aspects of the principles in accordance with collected evidence obtained during the review process.

摘要： Background Based on the principles of Narrative Medicine, this study explored a narrative-based workshop for multi-level interdisciplinary clinicians who have EOL conversations. Methods Fifty-two clinicians participated in narrative-based interactive workshops. Participants engaged narrative in three forms: viewing narratives, writing/sharing narratives, and co-constructing narratives. Post workshop interviews were conducted and thematically analyzed. Results Five themes characterized how the workshop shaped learning and subsequent care experiences: (1) learning to enter/respond to the patient stories, (2) communicating across professions and disciplines, (3) practicing self-care. Additional themes emphasized (4) barriers to narrative learning and (5) obstacles to applying narrative to practice. Discussion Results highlight the function/utility of narrative forms such as the value of processing emotions via reflective writing, feeling vulnerable while sharing narratives, and appreciating colleagues' obstacles while observing patient-clinician simulations. Challenges associated with narrative such as writing anxiety and barriers to implementation such as time constraints are detailed to inform future initiatives.

摘要： Bacterial cellulose has drawn the attention for its unique properties and applications including;medicine, pharmacy, food, agricultural, textile and electronics. The present study focused on the production of bacterial cellulose nanofibrils (BCNF) from black tea as cost effective alternative medium in addition to study the effect of gamma radiation on BCNF properties. A symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) were isolated from commercial Kombucha beverage and were identified as Acinetobacterlowffii and Candida krusei, respectively. The symbiotic culture was used for production of BCNF on Hestrin-Schramm (HS), black tea (BT) and modified BT media. BCNF was purified (0.5 N NaOH) and quantified by dry weight, yield and productivity determination. Characterization and effect of gamma radiation (5-25 kGy) on BCNF were studied using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The highest BCNF production was achieved using BT medium with 0.2% tea and 6.0% commercial sugar (with dry weight 4.77-4.61 g/l and productivity 68.14% and 65.85%, respectively). Supplementation of BT medium with 1% ethanol, 0.27% Na2HPO4 and 0.5% yeast extract individually, enhanced the BCNF production (7.85, 6.84 and 5.73 g/l), respectively. FTIR spectrum of BCNF from sugared water (SW), HS and BT showed similar structure with high purity. As a conclusion, gamma irradiation has no effect on the BCNF structure while showed different effects on its crystallinity index and size with the different doses. The changes in CrI were ranged between (17 and 23.5%), while the crystallinity size (Cs) was affected by gamma irradiation in a positive relationship where the crystalline size was decreased (33%) by exposure to 5 kGy then increased by increasing the dose of radiation reaching 25.7% at 25 kGy. SEM graphs showed the morphology of microbial culture and its symbiotic relationship in addition to the ultrafine structure of non-irradiated and ir
