In the central nervous system(CNS), the mTOR pathway regulates diverse aspects of neural development and function. Genetic mutations within the m TOR pathway lead to severe neurodevelopmental disorders, collectively known as “mTORopathies”(Crino, 2020). Dysfunctions of m TOR, including both its hyperactivation and hypoactivation, have also been implicated in a wide spectrum of other neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative conditions, highlighting its importance in CNS health.展开更多

This growth imposes severe pressure and a number of issues and challenges on the game development community. Game development is a complex process, and one important game development choice is to consider the developer＇s perspective to produce good-quality software games by improving the game development process. The objective of this study is to provide a better understanding of the developer＇s dimension as a factor in software game success. It focuses mainly on an empirical investigation of the effect of key developer＇s factors on the software game development process and eventually on the quality of the resulting game. A quantitative survey was developed and conducted to identify key developer＇s factors for an enhanced game development process. For this study, the developed survey was used to test the research model and hypotheses. The results provide evidence that game development organizations must deal with multiple key factors to remain competitive and to handle high pressure in the software game industry. The main contribution of this paper is to investigate empirically the influence of key developer＇s factors on the game development process.展开更多

文摘The concept of Net Zero Carbon Buildings,which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,is essential in addressing climate change.However,the development of such buildings in Thailand faces significant challenges,including high construction costs,uncertain returns,and limited investment incentives.This study explores the factors influencing real estate developers’decisions to pursue Net Zero Carbon Buildings in Thailand,with a focus on physical,financial,and policy-related elements.Data collection was done with 388 respondents who are stakeholders,including developers,consultants,designers,and sustainability experts,through an online questionnaire,and analyzed using Multiple Regression Analysis.The independent variables in the analytical model consist of three groups of factors:physical buildings,climate finance,and climate policy.The results indicate that physical building factors,including building age,engineering systems,and design;climate finance factors,such as project cost increases,financial returns,and investment incentives;and climate policy factors,including government policies,international climate agreements,and carbon taxes,significantly influence development decisions.Government policies,building engineering systems,and financial incentives were identified as key positive drivers for investment,while carbon taxes and energy efficiency-focused designs were found to potentially discourage investment due to higher costs.The study concludes that substantial government support such as tax incentives,grants,and low-interest financing is critical to fostering investment in Net Zero Carbon Buildings.Additionally,raising awareness among developers and the private sector about the long-term benefits of these projects is essential to strengthening investment incentives.
