A decision-making model developed by two nursing administrators provides quality service using participatory, innovative managerial techniques. Treating the front-line service providers as clients proved to be the best way to develop a case management service for the ultimate client--the patient. Encouragement, respect and empowerment led to the formation of regional coalitions under one agency leadership.

A moment-based Kalman filtering approach for estimation in ensemble systems.

Chaos

June 2024

Department of Electrical and Systems Engineering, Washington University in St. Louis, St. Louis, Missouri 63130, USA.

A persistent challenge in tasks involving large-scale dynamical systems, such as state estimation and error reduction, revolves around processing the collected measurements. Frequently, these data suffer from the curse of dimensionality, leading to increased computational demands in data processing methodologies. Recent scholarly investigations have underscored the utility of delineating collective states and dynamics via moment-based representations.

Pyrazole derivatives are key in crystal engineering and liquid crystal fields and thrive in agriculture, pharmaceutical, or biomedicine industries. Such versatility relies in their supramolecular bond adaptability when forming hydrogen bonds or metal-pyrazole complexes. Interestingly, the precise structure of pyrazole-based macrocycles forming widespread porous structures is still unsolved.

The dilemma of global public issues is a grave challenge, characterized by conflicts between rich and poor nations, and a lack of national consensus on future benefits. The impact of initial wealth heterogeneity on the emergence of cooperation in collective risk dilemmas has been a topic of intense debate. In this study, we examine the impact of endogenous endowment heterogeneity on cooperation in collective risk dilemmas.

Since life on earth developed, parasitic microbes have thrived. Increases in host numbers, or the conquest of a new species, provide an opportunity for such a pathogen to enjoy, before host defense systems kick in, a similar upsurge in reproduction. Outbreaks, caused by "endemic" pathogens, and epidemics, caused by "novel" pathogens, have thus been creating chaos and destruction since prehistorical times.

Instituto de Investigaciones Físicas, Universidad Mayor de San Andrés, La Paz, Bolivia.

We report the discovery of two types of stability rings in the control parameter space of a vertical-cavity surface-emitting semiconductor laser. Stability rings are closed parameter paths in the laser control space. Inside such rings, laser stability thrives even in the presence of small parameter fluctuations.
