The document provides guidance for certified caregivers on safely assisting residents with medication administration. It outlines the objectives of reviewing medication policies and procedures to decrease errors. Caregivers should identify common medication errors, read physicians' orders correctly, and know potential adverse effects. Key skills include preparing one resident's medications at a time, double checking the resident and medication match each time, and giving medications within an hour of the scheduled time except for certain cases. Resident rights and reporting adverse effects are also emphasized.
Effect of connection eccentricity in the behaviour of steel tension membersIAEME Publication
1) The document discusses the effect of connection eccentricity on the behavior of steel tension members. Connection eccentricity occurs when the location of bolt connectors does not coincide with the member's centroidal axis, inducing bending.
2) Finite element analysis was conducted using ANSYS on various steel angle sections (ISA 50x50x6, ISA 65x65x6, ISA 75x75x6) to predict their failure capacities under different eccentric connection configurations. Results were compared to experimental data.
3) Current design specifications do not consider the detrimental bending effects of connection eccentricity, which can significantly reduce a member's failure capacity. Both experimental and computational analyses were performed to better understand these impacts.
1) El paciente presenta síndrome nefrótico, insuficiencia renal, hipertensión arterial y derrame pleural secundario a una insuficiencia renal crónica en estadio terminal. 2) Los exámenes revelan niveles elevados de urea, creatinina, colesterol y triglicéridos, así como proteinuria y edema. 3) Se requiere tratamiento para controlar la hipertensión y hipoproteinemia, así como diálisis o trasplante renal.
Tension members are structural elements subjected to direct tensile loads. Their strength depends on factors like length of connection, size and spacing of fasteners, cross-sectional area, fabrication type, connection eccentricity, and shear lag. Failure can occur through gross section yielding, net section rupture, or block shear. Design involves selecting a member with sufficient gross area to resist factored loads in yielding, then checking strength considering net section rupture and block shear failure modes.
The document discusses the behavior and design of beam-columns, which are structural elements that experience both axial loads and bending moments. It covers topics such as moment connections for columns, eccentric loads on columns, interaction of axial and bending forces, and moment amplification due to axial loads. Design considerations discussed include checking for adequate strength, using interaction formulas, and verifying sufficient resistance to local buckling. The document appears to be lecture materials on structural steel beam-column design based on Canadian standards.
Tension members can fail due to three modes:
1. Gross section yielding, where the entire cross-section yields
2. Net section yielding, where the reduced cross-section after subtracting holes yields
3. Block shear failure, which also occurs in welded connections along planes of shear and tension
The design strength is the minimum of the strengths from these three failure modes. Block shear is demonstrated using a failed gusset plate connection with failure planes around the weld. The problem determines the tensile strength of a plate connected to a gusset plate, calculating the strength based on gross section yielding, net section yielding, and block shear failure.
The document discusses developing a safety concept for combined piled-raft foundations, which act as a composite structure consisting of piles, slab, and subsoil. It proposes using a global safety factor approach and reliability index to define acceptable load and resistance values. Future work is needed to establish design standards through additional research involving measurements, model tests, and numerical simulations.
This document summarizes the development of an approximate nonlinear analysis method for piled raft foundations. The method models pile-soil interaction, pile-soil-pile interaction, and raft-soil-pile interaction in a multilayered soil profile. It considers effects like apparent stiffness reduction and stiffness hardening. Comparison to 3D FEM analysis shows the method generates similar load-settlement behavior and is sufficiently accurate for design. Further refinement could involve intelligent soil springs and modeling of variable raft shapes, validated through field testing.
The document discusses shear design of beams. It covers shear strength, which depends on the web thickness and h/t ratio to prevent shear buckling. Shear strength is calculated as 60% of the tensile yield stress. Block shear failure is also discussed, where the strength is governed by the shear and net tension areas. An example calculates the maximum reaction based on block shear for a coped beam connection.

This document discusses the need for raft foundations. Raft foundations are recommended when:
1) Building loads are heavy or soil capacity is low, so individual footings would cover too much area.
2) Soil contains weak lenses or cavities, making differential settlement hard to predict.
3) Structures are sensitive to differential settlement.
4) Structures like silos naturally suit raft foundations.
5) Floating foundations are needed over very weak soil.
6) Buildings require basements or underground pits.
7) Individual footings would experience large bending stresses.
Raft foundations increase capacity, decrease settlement, and equalize differential settlement compared to individual footings. However,
The document discusses a project called Partner News and Knowledge (PNK) that aims to aggregate and disseminate information on Calit2's industrial partners. PNK version 1.0 gathered information from various sources like commercial news, blogs, and the general web. It reviewed feeds and identified the most valuable information using a "signal to noise ratio". The aggregated information was displayed on a website and integrated into users' desktops using RSS feeds and Outlook. PNK gathered an average of 19 posts per day and will look to enhance information sources and display for version 2.0.
Kevin Suttle is a channel developer for litl and has contributed to various tech publications and projects. He discusses the importance of considering context when developing applications, noting that context includes more than just screen size.

Building an Open Source iOS app: lessons learnedWojciech Koszek
Building an Open Source iOS app: lessons learned
Dec 12, 2016, Hacker Dojo (Santa Clara), 6pm
In this talk I'm going to talk about lessons learned from building Sensorama (http://www.sensorama.org), an Open Source sensor platform for data science. The main theme of the talk will be Open Source: what is great about it, what is bad and how you must become a part of the Open Source community to really move quickly and benefit from it. For this project, I did both the code and the design, so you'll have a chance to see how solo-developer deals with time/feature constraints, which tools I've used and what my approach towards development in this mode is. In other words: I'll tell you what I did to stay sane. If the iOS development were a walk in a dark city park, this talk may turn out to be your flashlight.

Introduction to (web) APIs - definitions, examples, concepts and trendsOlaf Janssen
This story is about the added value of APIs (application programming interfaces) for modern businesses, developers and software consumers. It deals with API-fundamentals and shows how APIs are the cornerstones of modern business development (BizDev2.0). By looking at casestudies from Google Maps, Twitter, Amazon, eBay, Moo, Flickr, Netflix and other web2.0-companies, it becomes clear how APIs add value for all parties on the modern web.

Podcasting involves creating digital audio or video files that are episodic and can be downloaded through an automated feed to portable devices for listening or watching offline. The podcasting workflow includes producing the media file, editing it with metadata, uploading it to a server, distributing the metadata to client software like iTunes, downloading the file manually or automatically, and transferring it to a portable audio device. Podcasting allows users to download files for later listening unlike streaming which requires a constant internet connection.

The document discusses an experiment conducted by the author to test bees' ability to learn and communicate about new food sources. The author covered some flowers with leaves to hide them from bees, finding the bees quickly rediscovered the hidden flowers once a few bees found them. Fake composite flowers were initially visited but then avoided once smelled. Bees also learned to identify simple paper flowers with honey on them, and would return to those flowers rather than natural ones. The experiment showed bees can communicate new food sources to others through imitation.

Social Cluster Analysis of Interbank Money Market Transaction BehaviorSasmito Adibowo
Traditionally, social networks are regarded as interaction patterns between people. Since organizations also interact and are composed of people then the notion of social networks may be extended to these entities. Furthermore, in some industries, interactions between organizations take place in a somewhat well defined environment in which quantitative data may be readily extracted. This research explores how that data may be used create a mathematical model that depicts the interaction patterns between organizations. The interaction data used are transactions in the Indonesian inter-bank money market. Individual behavior is modeled as a multiple linear regression equation with the weighted average of the bank’s lending rate in the market and the environmental variables regarded to have some effect in determination of the bank’s rate (in which some are controllable by the central bank) as the dependent and independent variables, respectively. Afterwards, the resulting model can be incorporated in the policymaking process of the central bank.
CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

2. What is News Anchor
Feed reader (ATOM/RSS) application.
Virtual newscaster.
Voice text (text-to-speech).
Accessible for low-vision users.
Mac OS X (10.5 and up).
http://NewsAnchorMac.com
4. What this is all about
News Anchor’s product design story
Background
Problem statement
Competing products
Design Decisions
5. Background
The inspiring situation
Foreign worker in Singapore.
Renting a room (home-stay style).
Doesn’t have television (space issues).
Uses a laptop for almost everything.
6. Problem
Keeping up with the news while juggling
t wo jobs.
(primary job and iPhone/Mac stuff)
Watches news primarily during breakfast
or commuting.
9. Active & Passive Media
“Passive” Media “Active” Media
“Pushed” by “Pull” by consumers.
content providers
Actively seeking
Passively receiving and selecting
content content.
One size fits all Highly customized
Ex: TV, Radio Ex: Internet Search
10. Active Media
Advantages
You get what you’re looking for.
Higher relevancy to your interests.
Disadvantages
You don’t get what you’re not looking for.
Searching is time-consuming.
11. Middle Ground
Combining “Passive” & “Active” media
You get some control over content.
You don’t need to search every time.
Some important and relevant content
are “pushed” to you.
12. Middle Ground -
Examples
Podcasts (video & audio).
Feed subscriptions (RSS/ATOM).
Social net work chatter & “t weets”
Google Buzz (?)
13. Back to Main Topic
I needed a compromise bet ween “active”
media and “passive” media for daily news
consumption activities.
“Passive” media doesn’t have many of the
content I’m interested in.
“Active” media takes a lot of manual
effort which takes away some of my
breakfast time.
14. Path to Solution - 1 of 4
Video Podcast – ABC World News by
Charles Gibson (at that time)
Good: pretty decent “world” news.
Bad: often t wo days late and available
only after 7 AM (Singapore time).
Bad: often too US-centric (naturally).
15. Path to Solution - 2 of 4
Feed reading – Google Reader
Good: relevant content (the way I set up
my feeds).
Bad: I have to click for every news
article that I want to read – not
convenient to read news during
breakfast.
16. Path to Solution – 3 of 4
Feed reading – Times for OS X
Better: Times presents a number of
articles in the same screen and let me
easily read most of them.
Not good enough: I still have to click to
move from articles to articles.
17. The Solution – 4 of 4
Something similar to the “world news
webcast” (video podcast) but with
customizable content.
Doesn’t require a lot of clicks for day-to-
day operation (other wise I risk spilling my
breakfast onto my laptop).
RSS/ATOM feeds are good enough as news
data sources.
18. The Competitors
As of second quarter 2009
NewsHawker – Sugar Maple Soft ware
Noodle Reader – Sonic Amigos
News At Seven – Northwestern
University
19. Competitor -
NewsHawker
Works with
NetNewsWire
Simple, faceless
RSS reading.
Doesn’t work
when I tested it.
20. Competitor -
Noodle Reader
Reads the weather or
news articles that
you’ve pasted.
Sophisticated but
complex user interface
and requires a lot of
manual intervention.
Officially de-supported
as of 2008
21. Competitor -
News At Seven
Very high-tech concept: an artificial intelligence (AI)
soft ware will browse the web and present news in a
talk show format.
Received mainstream media coverage at the time of
launch (back in 2006).
University project, government funded, no “real”
product for consumers as of Q2 2009.
22. Product Definition
A feed reader application. User-
configurable by t weaking the feeds. No AI
required.
Minimal intervention. Ideally like playing
a podcast, only requires one or t wo clicks.
Something “unique” so that it can carve a
nice niche.
23. Design Decisions
Follow the “News Broadcast” format.
An already successful format since the dawn
of television.
Primarily text-to-speech with some animation.
Let the user compose “channels” which are
amalgamation of feed articles.
Automatically generate “episodes” from those
channels.
24. Platform Decision
Mac OS X
Passing knowledge from previous iPhone development
experience.
Quartz Composer – easily prototype the animation
module.
Text-to-speech voice “Alex” is finally good enough.
All other developers are looking at the iPad – less
competition.
More powerful CPU compared to the iPhone or iPad.
25. Data Entities
Primary entities: Feeds and Channels.
Feed – an RSS feed and the articles that
make up the feeds.
Channel – a collection of RSS feeds that
defines the setup for a presentation.
Feed articles are collected and processed
automatically to make channel episodes.
26. Data Diagram

27. Data Diagram -
Explained
A feed is assigned to a number of
channels.
Periodically the channel will take the
specified number of articles from each
assigned feed (as according to the
channel) and make it an “episode”.
The episode is the “news broadcast” as
presented to the user.
28. Technical Architecture
Primarily an Objective-C application.
The news show display is rendered by a Quartz
Composer component (via an embedded QTZ file).
Multi-core ready (uses parallel threads via
NSOperationQueue)
Data management via Core Data with SQLite data
store
Universal Binary – PowerPC compatible
