Organizations producing products based on technical standards are interested in the factors that influence a customers’ intention to adopt that product, and accordingly that standard. In general, standards-based products are expected to be affected by factors similar to those that affect ordinary innovations, as described in Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovations with the addition of a few factors in...

Most educational support materials include graphics, animation, audio and video snippets, infographics, text that can be accessed through the Internet. In recent years attention paid to pedagogical design of teaching learning tools using cloud-based technologies (CBT) has been increasing in world. Such facilitates as friendly interface computer-based web-based applications, speed, availability ...

The feeling of ownership a virtual body has been topic interest in recent years. In order to observe the mechanisms involved perception illusion and its manipulation, use reality (VR) essential. Various technical VR set-ups have adopted by different authors induce sense embodiment. Recently, 360-degree technology camera emerged as an innovative instrument generate immersive experience, with pos...

Today, we will conclude our discussion of threshold schemes, describing some results from Dodis & Katz (2005). We define proactive security and share refreshing, giving examples for discrete-log based cryptosystems. We describe generic threshhold signature and encryption schemes. We explore Multiple-CCA (MCCA) security and failure of sequential or parallel encryption to acheive it. We give one ...

Introduction The immunopathogenesis of TRAPS is thought to centre on activation of the innate immune system resulting in episodic inflammation. The adaptive immune system, Tregs and Th17 T cells, has not been studied in TRAPS. Different anti-TNF agents have different clinical effects on TRAPS i.e. etanercept has benefits but adalimumab and infliximab may trigger flares of TRAPS. It has been sho...

This paper provides parametric estimates of technical change, e¢ ciency change, economies of scale, and total factor productivity growth for large banks (those with assets in excess of $1 billion) in the United States, over the period from 2000 to 2005. In doing so, we propose a distance function based primal total factor productivity growth index, which is valid under both perfect and imperfec...
