CERN has been providing central Windows remote desktops via the Windows Terminal Infrastructure service for several years and aims to provide a similar experience for Linux graphical environments. ...Different communities and experiments offer a series of tools to their users with this goal in mind, but the solutions are far from ideal and generate a support overhead for their respective providers. The Linux Applications Gateway project (LAG) was born to provide this functionality centrally from the IT department. After an extensive market research, the tool FastX was identified as an enabler, and to set up a closed, internal pilot for evaluation. These efforts led to the creation of the Remote Operations Gateway (ROG) service with a high approval rate. We aim to further extend the usage of FastX at CERN, reaching out to other communities and experiments, and to provide a better support coverage for them all.

Interactions between consumers and humanoid service robots (HSRs; i.e., robots with a human-like morphology such as a face, arms, and legs) will soon be part of routine marketplace experiences. It is ...unclear, however, whether these humanoid robots (compared with human employees) will trigger positive or negative consequences for consumers and companies. Seven experimental studies reveal that consumers display compensatory responses when they interact with an HSR rather than a human employee (e.g., they favor purchasing status goods, seek social affiliation, and order and eat more food). The authors investigate the underlying process driving these effects, and they find that HSRs elicit greater consumer discomfort (i.e., eeriness and a threat to human identity), which in turn results in the enhancement of compensatory consumption. Moreover, this research identifies boundary conditions of the effects such that the compensatory responses that HSRs elicit are (1) mitigated when consumer-perceived social belongingness is high, (2) attenuated when food is perceived as more healthful, and (3) buffered when the robot is machinized (rather than anthropomorphized).
In the field of lithium-based batteries, there is often a substantial divide between academic research and industrial market needs. This is in part driven by a lack of peer-reviewed publications from ...industry. Here we present a non-academic view on applied research in lithium-based batteries to sharpen the focus and help bridge the gap between academic and industrial research. We focus our discussion on key metrics and challenges to be considered when developing new technologies in this industry. We also explore the need to consider various performance aspects in unison when developing a new material/technology. Moreover, we also investigate the suitability of supply chains, sustainability of materials and the impact on system-level cost as factors that need to be accounted for when working on new technologies. With these considerations in mind, we then assess the latest developments in the lithium-based battery industry, providing our views on the challenges and prospects of various technologies.
Pazarlama araştırmalarında ölçüme dair yapılan çalışmalar hem teorik hem pratik açıdan gizil yapıların operasyonelleştirilmesine dair bilgi birikimi oluşturmuştur. Bu yaklaşım kapsamında somut ...ölçümlerin soyut gizil yapılara dönüşümü araştırmacıların ölçüm dillerini teorik modelleri ile senkronize etmesi söz konusudur. Ancak ilgili operasyonelleştirme sürecinde aslında oluşturucu ölçüm modeli ile teorize edilmesi gereken gizil yapıların yansıtıcı ölçüm modeli ile teorize edildiǧi gözlemlenmektedir. Bu çalışmada çok boyutlu gizil yapıların yanlış operasyonelleştirilmesi konusu tartışılmakta ve ilgili yanlış uygulamaya dikkat çekilmektedir. Ayrıca çok boyutlu gizil yapıların oluşturucu ölçüm modeli kapsamında kovaryans-temelli yapısal eşitlik modelinde MIMIC model ile nasıl operasyonelleştirilmesi gerektiǧine dair bir yol haritası ortaya konmuştur.
