TL;DR: In this paper, three sources of occupational stress (i.e., role overload, responsibility, and role insufficiency), and four types of strain (e.g., vocational, interpersonal, psychological, and physical) were assessed for Japanese female office workers.

TL;DR: In this article, the static mixers were found to increase rates of mass transfer when a single nozzle was used as the gas distributor and when an optional pump was used in the external loop column, the mass transfer rate could be enhanced significantly.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the interlocking conflicts and resulting problems of higher education in the Philippines and propose different solutions for each problem; no uniform solution is possible as the nature of the problem is different for each area.
Abstract: This paper describes the interlocking conflicts and resulting problems of higher education in the Philippines. The educational system produces first degree graduates for certain professions and fields of specialization while failing to produce enough graduates in ‘unpopular’ fields of pure science, middle-level technician specializations, and graduate training for research and higher education. The few scientists and graduate degree holders trained abroad migrate to other countries, making the shortage even more acute. For oversubscribed professions, graduates seek overseas employment. In the meantime, the mismatch continues. The author proposes different solutions for each problem; no uniform solution is possible as the nature of the problem is different for each area. For oversubscribed professions, the writer accepts overseas employment as a viable option; it is a source of foreign exchange and a natural way of population control. For undersubscribed professions he proposes a system of incentives tied to a period of mandatory service, after which the beneficiary may exercise his/her options. The writer concludes with some general insights about allowing the ‘invisible hand’ to regulate the process of manpower demand and supply but supports limited and specific government interventions at the right moment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the relation among academic achievement, instrumentality, career decision-making self-efficacy expectations, and career choice anxiety for motivation to enter the university.

TL;DR: Two hyperovals constructed in the same Hall plane are equivalent under the action of the automorphism group of that Hall plane iff they are in the the same class.
Abstract: In this paper we construct two classes of translation hyperovals in any Hall plane of even orderq2 ≥ 16. Two hyperovals constructed in the same Hall plane are equivalent under the action of the automorphism group of that Hall plane iff they are in the same class.

TL;DR: In this article, nearly triply regular (4m 2, 2m 2?m,m 2?m) DRADs wherem is an even power of 2, are constructed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the gauge interaction and mass generation through the Higgs mechanism are worked out for a Grassmannian SU(5) model, which among many other states, predicts three light neutrinos and two heavy ones.
Abstract: The gauge interaction and mass generation through the Higgs mechanism is worked out for a Grassmannian SU(5) model, which among many other states, predicts three light neutrinos and two heavy ones. It is found that Simpson’s 17 keV neutrino remains incompatible with the MSW solution to the solar neutrino puzzle in this framework

TL;DR: The paper describes TRIP's concept of templating, its language, and the image specification and pattern-matching directives, a programming support environment that increases software productivity through the reuse of code fragments, objects, and logic sets encoded in templates.
Abstract: The paper presents Template Reusability in Programs (TRIP), a programming support environment that increases software productivity through the reuse of code fragments, objects, and logic sets encoded in templates. Templates are procedures that preprocess the source code before it is submitted to a compiler. Preprocessing results in the generation of code segments, which are inserted into one or more locations in a given target code, based on logic rules embedded in templates. To provide the templates with information about the source code as it is being scanned, a directive process matches user-defined patterns in the source code. Directives are responsible for the execution of templates according to the appearance of the user-defined patterns in the source code. The templates are customizable. They can be modified to produce target codes that follow the user's programming standards and styles. In addition, sets of templates may be used to generate codes for different operating environments from the same source code. A salient feature of TRIP is that templates support both the development and maintenance phases of the software life-cycle. The paper describes TRIP's concept of templating, its language, and the image specification and pattern-matching directives. TRIP has been used at Software Brewers, Inc., in the implementation of two software projects: CC2 (a compiler-compiler) and XCobol (a commercial package that generates business application programs in Cobol).
