In 1986, Thomassen posed the following conjecture: every 4-connected line graph has a Hamiltonian cycle. As a possible approach to the conjecture, many researchers have considered statements that are equivalent or related to it.

The grant will also support the development of new partnerships and pilot projects, particularly a collaboration with JONATHAN KURTIS, JENNIFER FRIEDMAN and colleagues at the Center for International Health Research at Lifespan in Providence, where the grant will support Ian Michelow, a junior researcher who is working to develop vaccines against malaria. Institute Director and URI Research Pro...

Psychology has been one of the most popular fields study among high school graduates for several years. It is worth revising desirable competences a modern psychologist in order to ensure quality education and, long run, respond contemporary needs clients very dynamically changing conditions work. They are affected, others, by rapid development new technologies, coronavirus pandemic, and war go...

While dissemination and implementation (DI) science has become a clear area of research focus with associated methodologies, grant programs, journals, and training programs, these are relatively recent developments which have created a gap in training and career development. Many large institutions with major research programs have some investigators who are carrying out DI research but these t...

The Clostridia are a diverse group of gram-positive, rod-shaped anaerobes that include several toxin-producing pathogens (notably C. difSiciZe, C. botulinum, C. tetuni, and C. perfringens) and a large number of terrestrial species that produce acetone, butanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and organic acids through fermentation of a variety of carbon ~ o u r c e s ~ ~ . Isolates of C. ucetobutylicum w...

Our objective was to implement the technology developed during the first year of this project to the fabrication of nitride-based optoelectronic sensor structures on silicon wafers. This objective has been reached through optimization of the MBE process, the Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) and device fabrication techniques. Control of the RIE process was improved using a miniature ORthogonal extract...

The researchers made significant progress in all of the proposed research areas. The first major task in the proposal involved simulation-based and sampling methods for global optimization. In support of this task, we have discovered two new innovative approaches to simulation-based global optimization; the first involves connections between stochastic approximation and our model reference appr...

This paper investigates whether government support can act to increase exporting activity. We use a uniquely rich data set on Irish manufacturing plants and employ an empirical strategy that combines a non-parametric matching procedure with a difference-in-differences estimator in order to deal with the potential selection problem inherent in the analysis. Our results suggest that if grants are...

Grant writing has become increasingly important for Information Systems researchers. This workshop is intended to provide insight on how the grant writing process is handled from both the academic and practitioner perspective. This workshop is intended to be applied in providing the audience with practical skills necessary for writing a variety of grants into a variety of sectors. The workshop ...
