Kerguelenica petrescui (crustacea: cumacea), a new species from australian waters
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2008-01-01)Kerguelenica is a genus that was originally described on the basis of female specimens collected off the coast of the Kerguelen Islands by M. Ledoyer in 1977. At the time, Kerguelenica was recognized as a problematic genus ... -
Key factors impacting cloud computing adoption
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-10-01)Findings from multiple cloud provider case studies identify 9 key factors and 15 subfactors affecting the adoption of cloud technology. These range from technological issues to broader organizational and environmental issues. -
Key stakeholders’ experiences of respite services for people with dementia and their perspectives on respite service development: a qualitative systematic review
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-01)Background: Respite services provide a break in the caregiving relationship for people with dementia and their carers, however they are often under-used and service acceptability can be low. This study aims to understand ... -
Kinematics and simulations of the stellar stream in the halo of the umbrella galaxy
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2014-07-02)We study the dynamics of faint stellar substructures around the Umbrella Galaxy, NGC 4651, which hosts a dramatic system of streams and shells formed through the tidal disruption of a nucleated dwarf elliptical galaxy. We ... -
Kinetic modeling of gasoline surrogate components and mixtures under engine conditions

Kinetics in signal transduction pathways involving promiscuous oligomerizing receptors can be determined by receptor specificity: apoptosis induction by trail
(American Society for Biochemistry & Molecular Biology (ASBMB), 2012-01-02)Here we show by computer modeling that kinetics and outcome of signal transduction in case of hetero-oligomerizing receptors of a promiscuous ligand largely depend on the relative amounts of its receptors. Promiscuous ... -
Kinetics of endothelialization of the multilayer flow modulator and single-layer arterial stents
(SAGE Publications, 2015-05-07)The multilayer flow modulator (MFM; Cardiatis, Isnes, Belgium) is a self-expandable mesh of braided cobalt alloy wires, used for treatment of aortic and peripheral aneurysms. To further improve our understanding of this ... -
Kinetics of thermally induced heat shock protein 27 and 70 expression by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-05-08)Although bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive cell therapy candidate, their potential is limited by poor survival following transplantation. Over-expression of anti-apoptotic heat shock ... -
Knowledge-based multi-criteria optimization to support indoor positioning
(Springer Nature, 2011-07-01)Indoor position estimation constitutes a central task in home-based assisted living environments. Such environments often rely on a heterogeneous collection of low-cost sensors whose diversity and lack of precision has to ... -
Krasnosel’skii type fixed point theorems for mappings on nonconvex sets
(Hindawi Limited, 2012-01-01)We prove Krasnosel'skii type fixed point theorems in situations where the domain is not necessarily convex. As an application, the existence of solutions for perturbed integral equation is considered in p-normed spaces. -

Lack of critical slowing down suggests that financial meltdowns are not critical transitions, yet rising variability could signal systemic risk
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2016-01-13)Complex systems inspired analysis suggests a hypothesis that financial meltdowns are abrupt critical transitions that occur when the system reaches a tipping point. Theoretical and empirical studies on climatic and ecological ... -
