Educating the critical urban planner and designer: a didactical experience in an area of practice
(International Association of Technology, Education and Development (IATED), 2010)
The stretched scope of urbanism, with its large range of inputs drawn from various disciplines, seems to create confusion about the nature and the form of an education in urbanism at university level. We verify the existence ...
Intelligent co-operative PIM architecture for image analysis and pattern recognition
(IAENG, International Association of Engineers, 2010)
Computer memory systems are increasingly a bottleneck limiting application performance. Processor-In-Memory (PIM) architectures, which capitalize on merging the processing unit with its memory unit on the same chip [1], ...
The semantic specificity hypothesis : when gestures do not depend upon the presence of a listener
(2010)
Humans gesture even when their gestures can serve no communicative function (e.g., when the listener cannot see them). This study explores the intrapersonal function of gestures, and the semantic content of the speech they ...
Quantitative helical dynamic contrast enhanced computed tomography assessment of the spatial variation in whole tumour blood volume with radiotherapy in lung cancer
(2010)
We aim to assess the spatial distribution of blood volume (BV) in whole lung tumours in patients undergoing radiotherapy using helical dynamic contrast enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT), and to determine whether ...
Food, eating and taste : parents' perspectives on the making of the middle class teenager
(2010)
This paper reports findings from a qualitative study of views and understandings of dietary practices in middle class families. Thirty five parents/main food providers of boys and girls aged 13/14 years, living in Eastern ...
Requirements Engineering: A Tube-Map.
(2010)
In this paper, a diagrammatic representation of the main processes occurring in Requirements Engineering has been introduced. Adopted style has been derived by the notorious London Tube Map: it allows practitioners, academics ...
Herschel-ATLAS: far-infrared properties of radio-selected galaxies
(2010)
We use the Herschel-Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey (ATLAS) science demonstration data to investigate the star formation properties of radio-selected galaxies in the GAMA-9h field as a function of radio luminosity ...
A flare in the jet of Pictor A
(2010)
A Chandra X-ray imaging observation of the jet in Pictor A showed a feature that appears to be a flare that faded between 2000 and 2002. The feature was not detected in a follow-up observation in 2009. The jet itself is ...
The massive star-forming region Cygnus OB2. II - integrated stellar properties and the star formation history
(2010)
Cygnus OB2 is the nearest example of a massive star-forming region (SFR), containing over 50 O-type stars and hundreds of B-type stars. We have analyzed the properties of young stars in two fields in Cyg OB2 using the ...
User involvement in the development of a health promotion technology for older people: findings from the SWISH project
(2010)
Successive English government policies about older people's health and well-being aim to improve health and quality of life by promoting independence. Improving access to information and services that can improve health ...
