While most scholars and researchers recognize that entrepreneurship occurs differently in other countries, there are relatively few undergraduate courses that focus on International Entrepreneurship. Further, of those with an International focus, few provide students with an opportunity to interact with…

Having Systemic Functional Linguistics as a framework, I will pay attention to the different rhetorical devices (repetitions, exclamations, enumerations, etc.) in the speech 'I have a dream', of the great pacifist, Martin Luther King. This analysis will show how these…

Information Systems (IS) outsourcing is a growing phenomenon in present-day firms that has generally been characterised with an insufficient level of detail and analysis. This is mainly due to the fact that outsourcing has been studied as a set of…

In this communication, we report a new method to determine the wavefront
aberration function of personalized eyes. We obtain corneal surface data and
axial lengths for different eyes. With these data, we construct a diffractive model
of a human eye,…

PURPOSE: To compare the visual results of presbyLASIK patients to the best theoretical pseudoaccommodation that could be achieved using a multifocal refractive intraocular lens (IOL) model based on the optical
structure of a simulated AMO Array multifocal IOL.
METHODS: The…

Despite increased numbers of female researchers, women still face more difficulties than their male counterparts when it comes to publishing their work and having it read and cited. In this editorial, the main recommendations are detailed in order to promote…

Background: Education is a basic prerequisite for d/Deaf people’s health. Deaf education varies considerably from country to country and we still know very little about the reasons for such variation. Objective: To identify international megatrends that influence the current Deaf…

Objective: Although the relationship between area socioeconomic environment and obesity is known, previous research has measured area socioeconomic environment at only one point in time. This study evaluates the relationship of cumulative area-based adverse socioeconomic environment with body mass index…

We study regularity properties of the subdifferential of proper lower semicontinuous convex functions
in Hilbert spaces. More precisely, we investigate the metric regularity and subregularity, the strong
regularity and subregularity of such a subdifferential. We characterize each of these properties…

The objective of this paper is to get an insight into the chemical activation mechanism using KOH and NaOH as activated agents. Three
coals have been selected as carbon precursors. It was found that KOH and NaOH develop a similar…
