This paper presents first guidelines for the cultural adaptation and efficient global provision of services. For this purpose, it elaborates on how to consider culture-specific components of a service on the basis of systematic service modularization. This is illustrated by the example of an IT-mediated learning service, which is usually perceived differently in diverse cultures. To this end, a...

The microorganisms Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis and Zygosaccharomyces bailii and an oil-based emulsion, have been subjected to shock compression using the flyer-plate technique to initial pressures of 0.8 GPa (in the suspension). In each experiment, a stainless steel capsule was used to contain the broths and allow for recovery without contamination. Where cavitation was mostly suppr...

Abstract In empty well killing, in order to save the time and cost of killing well, dynamic replacement method is often used kill well. The main problem for wells how avoid terrible working conditions caused by flooding, such as gas carrying fluid, fluid being brought wellhead. Based on principle flooding formation basic tenets correlation experiment method, this paper incorporates viscosity, s...

A spatiotemporal data model consists of attributes or classes, operations, and consistency constraints. Various models have been proposed by the geographic information system (GIS) community. These models could not be implemented because of various reasons. One of the reasons is that these models lack completeness and remain limited to the classes. This paper discusses the dynamic operators for...

As we think about the history of spam reduction, we can see a gradual change in the approach over time, as the spam problem has changed.
