This paper disputes the widely held view that one cannot establish the reliability of a belief-forming process with the use of beliefs that are obtained by that very process since such self-dependent justification is circular. Harold Brown ([1993]) argued in this journal that some cases of self-dependent justification are legitimate despite their circularity. I argue instead that under appropri...

Continuously arising new trends in information technology and developments at the (e–business) market let companies crave for automated business process support. Process management systems offer the promising possibility to (electronically) define, control, and monitor business processes. However, if this technology shall be applicable in practice it must be possible to change running business ...

 Sequence dependent set-up times scheduling problems (SDSTs), availability constraint and transportation times are interesting and important issues in production management, which are often addressed separately. In this paper, the SDSTs job shop scheduling problem with position-based learning effects, job-dependent transportation times and multiple preventive maintenance activities is studied. ...

inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) frequently affects young patients of childbearing age. treatments for inflammatory bowel disease include immunosuppressive, cytotoxic and surgical therapies. azathioprine is frequently used to treat patients with steroid dependent ibd. we report the case of a patient with ulcerative colitis, treated with azathioprine prior to conception and during the subsequent...

Many concepts for acoustic meta materials rely on additive manufacturing techniques. Depending the production process and material of choice, different levels precision repeatability can be achieved. In addition, have mechanical properties, many which are frequency dependent cannot easily measured directly. this contribution authors designed resonator elements, been manufactured utilizing Fused...
