In this paper, we provide an overview of state-of-the-art research issues and achievements in the field analytics over big data, extend discussion to multidimensional data as well, by highlighting open problems actual trends. Our analytical contribution is finally completed several novel directions arising field, which plays a leading role next-generation Data Warehousing OLAP research.
Concern about poor mathematics achievement in U.S. schools has increased recent years. In part, may be attributed to a lack of attention early instruction and missed opportunities build on young children's understanding mathematics. This study examined the development feasibility testing kindergarten curriculum designed focus number sense, geometry, measurement, vocabulary. A mixed-model analysis covariance, using pretest score as covariate, was used determine effect experimental student...
Health services research has laid the groundwork for ongoing policy debates over shortcomings of American health care system and need expansion insurance protection. In early 1970s, studies inequality in access to medical provided basis proposals national insurance. The examination impact Medicare Medicaid demonstrated critical role these governmental efforts reducing inequalities care. By 1980s focus investigation turned policies designed contain cost on by vulnerable populations....
Abstract An exam wrapper is a guided reflection activity that students undertake following an exam. Students are typically asked to reflect on their preparation, performance, and plans for preparing the next The efficacy of wrappers reflective learning has been established in STEM disciplines such as physics, biology, chemistry, math. Very little research using engineering computing courses conducted date. Two contributions this paper (1) characterization recent findings education literature...
The relative effects of respiratory and metabolic acidosis on diaphragm function are not known. To determine these effects, we compared the lactic contractile properties diaphragm. We estimated diaphragmatic performance from change in transdiaphragmatic pressure after supramaximal stimulation phrenic nerves an open-chested, casted-abdomen dog. Similarly, stimulated gastrocnemius motor nerve examined force production relaxation rate to if there was a difference response this skeletal muscle....
In this paper, we describe our experience running "Girls on the Go: The Mobile Computing College Experience." We decided to do a residential summer camp for HS-age girls achieve two goals: encourage campers attend college and interest them in computer science as possible career option. centered around design of zoo-themed research tool where designed mobile application be used by researchers document study animal behavior. Post-camp surveys gave statistically significant results indicating...
We sought to study gender differences in young adult smoking declines and enrollment populationwide cessation services.The New York City (NYC) Department of Health Mental Hygiene implemented programs distribute free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT); demographic data were collected from enrollees. Smoking prevalence was assessed using the Community Survey, an annual population-based survey.Between 2002 2005, among adults NYC declined 23.8% 18.8%, which explained entirely by a 41.8% decline...
Linguists and Language Maintenance:Pasifika Languages in Manukau, New Zealand1 Melenaite Taumoefolau, Donna Starks, Karen Davis, Allan Bell Abstract Manukau City is the most language-rich area Zealand, yet it has to date not been subject of any detailed sociolinguistic study. This paper reports on pilot work for a major project languages addresses question whether linguists can contribute language maintenance efforts. It consists an analysis Zealand census data use area, supported by...
This article examines patterns of methadone maintenance treatment entry among 9018 adult women injection drug users (IDUs), with special attention to parental-status differences. The data originate from a statewide drug-treatment database covering all IDUs who entered in the State Massachusetts over four-year period. Through use logistic regression analysis, study found that these IDUs, those resided their children were significantly more likely enter than mothers but did not reside...
Most of the improvement--both absolute and relative--in health status black Americans over past two decades can be traced to major gains in access care services. Public payment programs, most notably Medicaid Medicare, have not only reduced financial barriers, but also combatted those racial discrimination. Other federal programs supporting targeted local services been especially effective reducing infant mortality. But redistributive effects uneven unequal across populations; many...
The "Girls on the Go: Mobile Computing College Experience" is a residential summer camp whose aim to encourage female high school students attend college, consider computer science as viable major, and pursue computing related degrees. content designed primarily around user-centered design process, with gaining experience in development of zoo-themed mobile app. In addition technical experience, participate sessions that educate them campus life, admissions more importantly, what...
