• If a product excludes coverage for a service, it is not covered, and medical policy criteria do not apply. • If a commercial product, including an Essential Plan product, covers a specific service, medical policy criteria apply to the benefit. • If a Medicare product covers a specific service, and there is no national or local Medicare coverage decision for the service, medical policy criteri...

Literature remains scant concerning the benefits of unified communication services (UCS) for the purposes of knowledge exchange in organizations. This study utilized the Grounded Theory approach to systematically analyze 3023 communication logs among 47 employees at a mid-size South Central company. Findings show that UCS knowledge exchange occurs with high frequency, has short duration and is ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We argue that the stimuli used in traditional fear conditioning paradigms are too simple to model the learning and unlearning of complex fear memories. We therefore developed and tested an adapted fear conditioning paradigm, specifically designed for the study of complex associative memories. Second, we explored whether manipulating the meaning and complexity of the CS...

Dijkstra’s single-source shortest-path algorithm (DA) is one of the well-known, fundamental algorithms in computer science and related fields. DA is commonly taught in undergraduate courses. Uniform-cost search (UCS) is a simple version of the best-first search scheme which is logically equivalent to DA. In this paper I compare the two algorithms and show their similarities and differences. I c...

This study is the development of a usability test plan for implementation of an Enhanced 911 Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system by emergency response dispatch centers. Enhanced 911 system technologies will allow emergency response personnel to locate cellular 911 callers in distress by pinpointing the latitude and longitude of their location, and mapping it through the use of a Geographic Inf...

BACKGROUND Upper urinary tract urothelial carcinomas (UUT-UCs) account for only 5-10% of urothelial carcinomas and the gold standard treatment is open radical nephroureterectomy. Strong differences exist regarding tumor behaviour between the upper and the lower urinary tract. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate how the current knowledge in molecular biology of UUT-UCs is likely to modify the management ...

The existence of fractures has a significant influence on the mechanical properties rock mass. sensitivity mass’s to fracture’s geometric parameters is conducive improving measurement accuracy fractured mass engineering. Firstly, fracture in dam site area Lianghekou Hydropower Station were counted using ShapeMetriX3D system. Then, effect deformation characteristics, failure mode, and investigat...

The canonical UCS (UNC-45/Cro1/She4p) protein, Caenorhabditis elegans UNC-45, was one of the earliest molecules to be shown genetically to be necessary for sarcomere assembly. Genetic analyses of homologues in several fungal species indicate that the conserved UCS domain functionally interacts with conventional type II and unconventional type V myosins. In C. elegans and other invertebrate spec...

This paper presents the results of case studies evaluating our method of unifying use cases (UCs) to derive a unified statechart (SC) model of the behavior of the domain system (DS) of a proposed computer-based system. An evaluation of the unification method, the obtained SC model of the DS, the method’s and model’s feedback on the UCs themselves, and how the method is used in requirements engi...

A-7-6 lateritic soil was treated at British Standard Light (BSL) compaction energy with up to 8% lime content (by dry weight of the soil) at 2% variations and each was admixed with up to 8% rice husk ash (RHA) at 2% variations. Effects of the ash on the soil-lime mixtures were investigated with respect to unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and coefficient of permeability. The UCS of the spec...
