The main theme of the conference is anti-crime networking and critical infrastructure.The area of anti- crime networking and critical infrastructure is a fusion of a number of research areas in networking, sensing,human factors,artificial intelligence,operational research,and systems control theory. However,the real challenge is to design anti-crime networking and systems from a holistic perspective; taking into account technical,organizational as well as contextual complexity.A system engineering approach is required to address new problems of this challenging and promising area.This conference will provide a remarkable opportunity for the academic and industrial community to address new challenges and share solutions,and discuss future research directions.It will feature plenary speeches, industrial panel sessions,funding agency panel sessions,interactive sessions,and invited/special sessions.Contributions are expected from academia,industry,EPSRC,EU,DTI,and MoD.Technical topics of the conference include but are not limited to:展开更多

Method: Following the interview guide, FGIs were conducted in two groups (4 - 6 participants) consisting of nurses and care workers with more than 5 years of experience as practitioners of urination care. Data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach. Results: We determined that the program purpose is to “enable caregivers to work as a well-coordinated team to humanely facilitate excretion independence in older people, which is essential for living with dignity”, as this confirmed the importance of maintaining the sense of micturition control in older people for their well-being. In the program outline, we extracted the following five categories: 1) setting selection criteria for recipients considering the status of micturition induction, 2) careful collection of information and assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms in older people in case of environmental changes, 3) examination of methods used for assessing lower urinary tract symptoms according to the facility environment, 4) confirmation of the recipient’s micturition habits and request for assistance, and 5) conducting necessary examination for setting the intervention period and evaluation period according to the target condition. The feedback on the program guide was summarized in the statement—specific successful cases help frame and implement the micturition induction plan. Conclusion: We confirmed the feasibility of the micturition induction plan for improving the sense of control in older people with functional urinary incontinence. Upon evaluating the program guide, we deemed that referring to specific successful cases helps frame and implement the micturition induction plan. It is extremely important to verify the effectiveness of the program going forward.展开更多

The purpose of this study is to prove the relationship between regret emotions and a sense of responsibility and control. The results show that the individual＇s sense of responsibility and regret that there is a positive correlation and there is a negative correlation between the control and regret, which is not match the previous part of the study so as to be further explored. At the same time, we found that the regret tendencies in the personality can be explained as some of the regret experiencing in the specific situation. When people realize or imagine that ＂if the choice is not the same as before that things are getting better now＂, they will feel regret.展开更多

Methods: 80 patients were selected as subjects in a hospital. In order to highlight the research results, the selected subjects were equally divided into experimental group and control group, and different nursing measures were used for the patients in the two groups. Tthe patients in the control group used routine nursing methods in the process of infusion treatment, while the experimental group took measures to optimize hospital sensing and control on the basis of routine nursing methods. On the premise of ensuring that other conditions of the two groups of patients do not change, after taking different nursing measures for the two groups of patients, compare the infusion satisfaction of the two groups of patients and the probability of adverse infusion events. Results: the incidence of adverse infusion events was 15.00% in the control group and 2.50% in the experimental group;The satisfaction of infusion nursing in the control group was 77.50%, while that in the experimental group was 95.00% (P < 0.05). Conclusion: the application of optimized hospital sensing and control management method in the static distribution center can improve patients infusion satisfaction and reduce the probability of adverse infusion reactions. Therefore, this method is worthy of comprehensive promotion and application in the hospital.展开更多

In face of the giant’s rise, some Southeast Asia countries have reduced their sense of certainty and control over this external environment, which causes their insecurity. The reasons of this phenomenon include the factor of history, ideology, geopolitics, overseas Chinese and extraterritorial states intervention. We should go start with national and ideological barriers, combine the analysis of the sense of certainty and control, to understand the underlying causes of insecurity.展开更多

The DOG 1 （DELAY OF GERMINATION 1） gene is the main QTL controlling this trait in Arabidopsis （Bentsink et al., 2006） and therefore is extensively regulated. This includes the alternative polyadenylation （APA） of DOG1 mRNA （Cyrek et al., 2016） and an antisense transcript, asDOGl, which in cis suppresses DOG1 expression during seed maturation （Fedak et al., 2016）. As with many antisense transcripts （Mellor et al., 2016; Rosa et al., 2016）, asDOG1 originates from close to the transcription termination site of the sense gene. This raises the question of how this proximity affects antisense promoter activity.展开更多
