    When the European Union expanded eastward in 2004 and 2007 to accession the so-called EU8 and EU2 countries, respectively, the incumbent member states imposed temporary restrictions on the employment of EU8 and EU2 nationals. Self-employed individuals were exempted from these transitional arrangements, prompting concerns that self-employment could be used as a means to evade the restrictions on labour market access. If the transitional arrangements led to an increase in EU8 and EU2 nationals’ self-employment rates, as previous research suggests, then their removal should have led to a corresponding decrease. This article analyses whether the latter has indeed been the case.

    Thus, ensuring efficient and reliable data delivery. This paper aims to introduce a Software architecture for Road Network. The architecture is based on fog computing and aims to improve the overall performance in vehicular networks. The proposed architecture is a new routing design for the urban system to accomplish low energy consumption and operational efficiency in data delivery. The integration between the software-defined networks and fog computing platform in the proposed architecture aids to address the high rate of data transmission. Historically, this high rate negatively affected network capacity and power consumption.

    Common physiological time series and waveforms are composed of repeating cardiac and respiratory cycles. Often, the cardiac effect is the primary interest, but for, e.g., fluid responsiveness prediction, the respiratory effect on arterial blood pressure also convey important information. In either case, it is relevant to disentangle the two effects. Generalized additive models (GAMs) allow estimating the effect of predictors as nonlinear, smooth functions. These smooth functions can represent the cardiac and respiratory cycles’ effects on a physiological signal. We demonstrate how GAMs allow a decomposition of physiological signals from mechanically ventilated subjects into separate effects of the cardiac and respiratory cycles.

    This research is presenting and reflecting the philosophical analysis by Max Bense of the intellectual history of mathematics as a science of mind. Examples of important historical phases show corresponding relationships between mathematics and arts, including architecture and all areas of human creation abilities.

    This text is based on the earlier Workbook for AC Electrical Circuits, which it replaces. The original expository text has been greatly expanded and includes many examples along with computer simulations. For the convenience of those who used the Workbook, many of the problem sets are the same, with some re-ordering depending on the chapter.

    Locating bug code snippets (short for BugCode) has been a complex problem throughout the history of software security, mainly because the constraints that define BugCode are obscure and hard to summarize. Previously, security analysts attempted to define such constraints manually (e.g., limiting buffer size to detect overflow), but were limited to the types of BugCode. Recent researchers address this problem by extracting constraints from program documentation, which shows the potential for API misuse. But for bugs beyond the scope of API misuse, such an approach becomes less effective since the corresponding constraints are not defined in documents, not to mention the programs without documentation In this paper, inspired by the fact that expert programmers often correct the BugCod...

    A systemic perspective is considered helpful when facing complex organizational challenges, but its practical implementation may be challenging. A potential effective method that facilitates the practical application of a systemic perspective may be the Systemic Constellation method. This method aims to raise individuals’ awareness of their social context and to render explicit their tacit knowledge relating to this social context. In recent decades, consultants, coaches, and other professionals, worldwide, have adopted this method, acquired through self-education. However, thus far, this method received only little attention from the scientific community and scientific evidence on the effectiveness of the method is limited. There is currently almost no data on professionals using t...

    Promoting the social-emotional development of kindergartners is of special relevance as will lay the foundations for emotion regulation in later childhood and adulthood stages. Considering that tangible storytelling tables are already used for language and literacy skills in kindergarten, we addressed the problem of designing a storytelling intervention aimed at social-emotional development suitable in such a context by using an emotional laden story as content and embedding a guidance method that can be implemented with either a human or robot guide to enhance the learning setting.

    We consider the transcendental entire function f(z)=z+e−z, which has a doubly parabolic Baker domain U of degree two, i.e. an invariant stable component for which all iterates converge locally uniformly to infinity, and for which the hyperbolic distance between successive iterates converges to zero. It is known from general results that the dynamics on the boundary is ergodic and recurrent and that the set of points in ∂U whose orbit escapes to infinity has zero harmonic measure.

    Swarm robotics studies how to use large groups of cooperating robots to perform designated tasks. Given the need for scalability, individual members of the swarm usually have only limited sensory capabilities, which can be unreliable in noisy situations. One way to address this shortcoming is via collective decision-making, and utilizing peer-to-peer local interactions to enhance the behavioral performances of the whole swarm of intelligent agents. In this paper, we address a collective preference learning scenario, where agents seek to rank a series of given sites according to a preference order.
