Review Of Archives In The Digital Age: Preservation And The Right To Be Forgotten By Abderrazak Mkadmi, Lydia Curliss

Journal of Contemporary Archival Studies

The book Archives in the Digital Age: Preservation and the Right to be Forgotten (2021) attempts to broadly describe the current state of digital archiving practices, the methods and strategies, influences of digital humanities and big data, preservation, and the concept of the Right to be forgotten. While this book promises to delve into the right to be forgotten, it is not until the final chapter that the author begins to really engage with this concept. While each of the chapters provides interesting and useful definitions for many technical terms, processes, and stages within the digital lifecycle, this book has …

Handeheld Device For Aided Fine Cleaning Of Green Parts, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

Metal binding 3D printing machines enable to produce green parts by selectively gluing metal powder particles inside a print bucket, typically using printheads that jet a binding solution to a thin layer of powder; formation of three-dimensional parts happens by stacking such layers one on top of each other. After printing, the binder solutions (from now on “binder”) must go through a curing process. The curing process provides the parts with a “good enough” mechanical strength to undergo several subsequent cleaning processes, prior to entering the sintering oven. In the sintering furnace, the metal particles diffuse and form a single …

Leveling Cube Publication, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

Currently, to level an Indigo digital press, a laser leveler along with regular leveling cubes are used. Two, or more, leveling cubes are placed on each side of the leveled module (feeder/in-line primer/ etc.). Then, a laser leveler projects a laser beam on them. An operator is adjusting the leveling legs so that all the leveling cubes are aligned with the same horizontal laser line. However, while leveling the rear side of the press, it is impossible to see the laser beam projection on the leveling cube. So the operator needs to walk to the front of the press after …

Tiltable Antenna Design For Enhancing Wireless Radio Transmit Power Limited By Sar, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

Most people may have experiences that they may encounter the lower battery condition during having an important conference call outside and couldn’t find the socket. Or another scenario is about power consumption validation of system idle mode during development and still see abnormal symptom that power consumption is over our specification. It is observed that transmitter output power of Wi-Fi module always adopts the maximum TX power value to communicate with AP (access point) no matter long or short distance. From this point of view, we have a thought that is to lower output power and gain additional power consumption …

Hr And Child Welfare Data – Building Connections To Improve Practice, Quality Improvement Center For Workforce Development (Qic-Wd)

Other QIC-WD Products

Combined human resources (HR) and child welfare data is essential to answer pertinent workforce questions. The Quality Improvement Center for Workforce Development (QIC-WD) has been intentional about bringing HR and child welfare professionals together to better understand and use the data they have available to them. In some cases, however, public child welfare agencies struggle to link their HR and child welfare data sets. Through the QIC-WD’s work with our intervention sites and Child Welfare Data Analytics Institutes, our team has worked directly with agencies grappling with the challenge of connecting these vitally important data sets to address a …

Widespread Perturbation Of Ets Factor Binding Sites In Cancer., Sebastian Carrasco Pro, Heather Hook, David Bray, Daniel Berenzy, Devlin Moyer, Meimei Yin, Adam Thomas Labadorf, Ryan Tewhey, Trevor Siggers, Juan Ignacio Fuxman Bass

Faculty Research 2023

Although >90% of somatic mutations reside in non-coding regions, few have been reported as cancer drivers. To predict driver non-coding variants (NCVs), we present a transcription factor (TF)-aware burden test based on a model of coherent TF function in promoters. We apply this test to NCVs from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes cohort and predict 2555 driver NCVs in the promoters of 813 genes across 20 cancer types. These genes are enriched in cancer-related gene ontologies, essential genes, and genes associated with cancer prognosis. We find that 765 candidate driver NCVs alter transcriptional activity, 510 lead to differential binding …

A Quantitative Evaluation Of Topological Motifs And Their Coupling In Gene Circuit State Distributions., Benjamin Clauss, Mingyang Lu

Faculty Research 2023

One of the major challenges in biology is to understand how gene interactions collaborate to determine overall functions of biological systems. Here, we present a new computational framework that enables systematic, high-throughput, and quantitative evaluation of how small transcriptional regulatory circuit motifs, and their coupling, contribute to functions of a dynamical biological system. We illustrate how this approach can be applied to identify four-node gene circuits, circuit motifs, and motif coupling responsible for various gene expression state distributions, including those derived from single-cell RNA sequencing data. We also identify seven major classes of four-node circuits from clustering analysis of state …

Rate Of Tau Propagation Is A Heritable Disease Trait In Genetically Diverse Mouse Strains., Lindsay A Welikovitch, Simon Dujardin, Amy R Dunn, Analiese R Fernandes, Anita Khasnavis, Lori B Chibnik, Catherine Kaczorowski, Bradley T Hyman

Faculty Research 2023

The speed and scope of cognitive deterioration in Alzheimer's disease is highly associated with the advancement of tau neurofibrillary lesions across brain networks. We tested whether the rate of tau propagation is a heritable disease trait in a large, well-characterized cohort of genetically divergent mouse strains. Using an AAV-based model system, P301L-mutant human tau (hTau) was introduced into the entorhinal cortex of mice derived from 18 distinct lines. The extent of tau propagation was measured by distinguishing hTau-producing cells from neurons that were recipients of tau transfer. Heritability calculation revealed that 43% of the variability in tau spread was due …

Tax Noncompliance: The Role Of Tax Morale In Smokers’ Behavior, James Prieger

School of Public Policy Working Papers

Measuring and predicting compliance with tax obligations is important but challenging. Survey data from California smokers are investigated to show that several forms of tax avoidance and evasion were common. About 43% of smokers avoided taxes by purchasing cigarettes outside the state in the previous year, 15% admit to evading taxes through cross-border purchases, and 26% bought likely or certainly untaxed cigarettes in the state in the past month. Attitudinal factors involving tax morale contributed more toward explaining the variance in compliance rates than demographic or law-and-economics factors. The implications for policy are discussed.
