Revealing the intrinsic nature of the mid-gap defects in amorphous Ge2Sb2Te5.
Understanding the relation between the time-dependent resistance drift in the amorphous state of phase-change materials and the localised states in the band gap of the glass is crucial for the development of memory devices with...
Revealing the intrinsic nature of the mid-gap defects in amorphous Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5
Abstract: Understanding the relation between the time-dependent resistance drift in the amorphous state of phase-change materials and the localised states in the band gap of the glass is crucial for the development of memory...
Origin of radiation tolerance in amorphous Ge2Sb2Te5 phase-change random-access memory material.
The radiation hardness of amorphous Ge2Sb2Te5 phase-change random-access memory material has been elucidated by ab initio molecular-dynamics simulations. Ionizing radiation events have been modeled to investigate their effect on...
Robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy following open trans-vesical adenomectomy
INTRODUCTION: Robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) following endoscopic resection of the prostate is known to be feasible with good outcomes. However, the literature evidence is limited on the feasibility...
Matching Construction Workers across Views for Automated 3D Vision Tracking On-Site
Computer vision-based tracking methods are used to track construction resources for productivity and safety purposes. This type of tracking requires that targets are accurately matched across multiple camera views to obtain a 3D...
A Numerical Characterisation of Unconfined Strength of Weakly Consolidated Granular Packs and Its Effect on Fluid-Driven Fracture Behaviour
Soft or weakly-consolidated sand refers to porous materials composed of
particles (or grains) weakly held together to form a solid but that can be
easily broken when subjected to stress. These materials do not behave...
Tensile Strength of Artificially Cemented Sandstone Generated via Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation
Artificially bio-cemented sands treated with microbially induced calcite precipitation are weakly cemented rocks representing intermediate materials between locked and carbonate sands. Variations in cementation significantly...
Monitoring construction labour productivity by way of a smart technology approach
Over the past decades, the construction industry lags further and further behind the manufacturing sector when productivity is considered. Current practices for managing labour productivity are labour intensive, time...
Scoring functions and enrichment
BACKGROUND: The need for fast and accurate scoring functions has been driven by the increased use of in silico virtual screening twinned with high-throughput screening as a method to rapidly identify potential candidates in the...

TBI results in significant cognitive impairments and in altered brain functional connectivity. However, no studies explored so far, the relationship between global functional connectivity and cognitive outcome in chronic...
Evaluating the Presence of Greek Tourism-Related Public Sector Entities in Online Social Networks
Social networks have become one of the most popular tools in promoting the tourism product. This applies to National Tourism Agencies, as well as tourism-related general government bodies (GGBs) and local authorities (LAs). This...

Forecasting for big data
Traditionally, forecasters focus on the development algorithms to identify optimal models and sets of parameters, optimal in the sense of within-sample fitting. However, this quest strongly assumes that optimally set parameters...
Surface electrodes record and label brain neurons in insects.
We used suction electrodes to reliably record the activity of identified ascending auditory interneurons from the anterior surface of the brain in crickets. Electrodes were gently attached to the sheath covering the projection...

'Horses for Courses’ in demand forecasting
Fotios Petropoulos, Spyros Makridakis, Vassilios Assimakopoulos, Konstantinos Nikolopoulos
Aug 16, 2014
Forecasting as a scientific discipline has progressed a lot in the last 40 years, with Nobel prizes being awarded for seminal work in the field, most notably to Engle, Granger and Kahneman. Despite these advances, even today we...

What drives substantive versus symbolic implementation of ISO 14001 in a time of economic crisis? Insights from greek manufacturing companies
This paper analyses the role of external pressures, internal motivations and their interplay, with the intention of identifying whether they drive substantive or instead symbolic implementation of ISO 14001. The context is one...
