Mixed ownership, managerial incentives and bank competition
(2011-10-01)We consider deposit competition between two banks, where prior to competition one bank is subjected to a nationalization decision and the other bank chooses managerial incentives. The government who maximizes a modified ... -
A Mixed-Methods Study of Eating Behaviours and Mealtime Experiences in Relation to Young People with Tourette Syndrome
(2021-12-10)Research suggests that young people with neurodevelopmental disorders experience an increased prevalence of selective eating compared with their typically developing counterparts. However, very little research has specifically ... -
The MIXR sample: AGN activity versus star formation across the cross-correlation of WISE, 3XMM, and FIRST/NVSS
(2016-11-01)We cross-correlate the largest available Mid-Infrared (WISE), X-ray (3XMM) and Radio (FIRST+NVSS) catalogues to define the MIXR sample of AGN and star-forming galaxies. We pre-classify the sources based on their positions ... -
MK-801 interaction with the 5-HT transporter : A real-time study in brain slices using fast cyclic voltammetry
(1999-06-01)The effects of a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist dizocilpine ((+)-MK-801) and a competitive NMDA antagonist, (+/-)-3-2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl-propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP) were compared in ... -
The Mk3.5 aEIT System: a Review of Recent Updates and Future Trends
(2009)The Mk3.5 absolute EIT system provides the ability to non-invasively and continuously monitor the absolute resistivity and regional ventilation distribution in the lungs. This can greatly enhance clinical diagnosis of lung ... -
ML-based estimation of the number of devices in industrial networks using unlicensed bands : (Best workshop paper)
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022-10-21)Advanced automation is being adopted by manu-facturing facilities and wireless technologies are set to be a key component in driving the factories of the future. It is expected that private cellular networks and WLAN ... -
Mo-92(alpha,alpha)Mo-92 scattering, the Mo-92-alpha optical potential, and the Ru-96(gamma,alpha)Mo-92 reaction rate at astrophysically relevant energies
(2001-12)The elastic scattering cross section of (MO)-M-92(alpha,alpha)Mo-92 has been measured at energies of E-c.m. approximate to 13, 16, and 19 MeV in a wide angular range. The real and imaginary parts of the optical potential ... -
MOA-2011-BLG-262Lb : A sub-earth-mass moon orbiting a gas giant primary or a high velocity planetary system in the galactic bulge
(2014-04-20)We present the first microlensing candidate for a free-floating exoplanet-exomoon system, MOA-2011-BLG-262, with a primary lens mass of M host ∼ 4 Jupiter masses hosting a sub-Earth mass moon. The argument for an exomoon ... -
MoBIC: An Aid to Increase the Independent Mobility of Blind Travellers
(1997-05)This article outlines the research of a multi-national team to develop a new travel aid to increase the independent mobility of blind and partially sighted people. The MoBIC travel aid (MoTA) consists of two inter-related ... -
Mobile Application Tutorials: Perception of Usefulness from an HCI Expert Perspective
(Springer Nature, 2016-06-19)Mobile application tutorials are an opportunity to educate users about a mobile application. Should a mobile application tutorial not be used, the number of frustrated users and uninstalled applications could increase, ... -
Mobile application usability heuristics: Decoupling context-of-use
(Springer Nature, 2017-05-14)Context-of-use is a vital consideration when evaluating the usability of mobile applications. Thus, when defining sets of heuristics for the usability evaluation of mobile applications, a common practice has been to include ... -
Mobile Application Usability: Heuristic Evaluation and Evaluation of Heuristics
(Springer Nature, 2016-06-30)Many traditional usability evaluation methods do not consider mobile-specific issues. This can result in mobile applications that abound in usability issues. We empirically evaluate three sets of usability heuristics for ... -
