This project has been designed for orphan children. Before entering the society, children should be in contact with people. The main point is to create an interesting open space near residential buildings where the communication between children and people takes place. What are the criteria in designing an open space as a link between micro and macro environment? Location and rural quality, an ...

After the mathematical notion of “Micro-Macro Duality” for understanding mutual relations between microsopic quantum systems (Micro) and their macroscopic manifestations (Macro) is explained on the basis of the notion of sectors and order parameters, a general mathematical scheme is proposed for detecting the state-structure inside of a sector through measurement processes of a maximal abelian ...

Micro-editing procedures have a number of problems: often there are many checks with narrow tolerances resulting in too many mistakes that need to be resolved manually by analysts. The analysts cannot assess the relative importance of these errors. Each marked item has the same weight and needs the same amount of time for correction. However, many errors have a neglible impact on the final esti...

Quality of experience (QoE) takes a user-focused view of the Internet experience, derived from lower-layer metrics like quality of service, reliability and usability, measuring ”the difference between what a customer expected, and what they actually received.” (FY/c) QoE can be usefully divided into a micro and macro aspect, covering the individualized and often shortterm experience of an indiv...

The central dogma uniquely positions RNA as the key molecular player for translating genetic software into protein hardware. But it has become increasingly clear that RNA also plays an essential regulatory role within cells. MicroRNAs in particular have emerged as ubiquitous and still poorly understood molecules involved in the control of a wide variety of biological processes. RNA has also rec...

We combine micro and macro unemployment duration data to study the e ects of the business cycle on the out ow from unemployment. We allow the cycle to a ect individual exit probabilities of unemployed workers as well as the composition of the total in ow into unemployment. We estimate the model using (micro) survey data and (macro) administrative data from France. The distribution of the in ow ...

At present we typically assess quality by relying heavily on summary process measures or macro paradata that is a by-product of sample selection and survey administration (e.g., item and unit nonresponse rates, response variances, sampling and coverage errors). These measures are an outgrowth of the randomization-based approach to survey sampling that triumphed in government agencies around the...

The most interesting thing about this book is what it doesn't do. It is a collection of articles forming a special issue of the Journal of Mathematical Sociology . It presents approaches to the "Micro-Macro Link" (MML) featuring experimental (1), analytical (2), narrative (2) and simulation based (3) contributions all of which are interesting and well written. However, reading the whole book, i...
