TL;DR: The landscape of research platforms for cloud systems is provided to help researchers identify a suitable approach for modelling, simulation or prototype implementation on which they can develop and evaluate their technical solutions.

TL;DR: A study was undertaken to investigate the effectiveness of implementing several strategies which focussed on developing the mathematical and conceptual skills of student nurses to improve their drug calculation skills, and found that implementing a range of strategies significantly improved the drug calculations skills of nurses.

TL;DR: Microcalorimetry is shown to be rapid, simple and effective in the study of the antimicrobial properties of gel forming wound dressings, and has the distinct advantage over traditional antimicrobial test methodologies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the flight trajectories of individual bumble-bees (Bombus terrestris L) foraging over arable farmland were used to study the effect of lateral wind drift on honeybee navigation and found that most bees overcompensated by heading partly into the wind and moving obliquely over the ground.
Abstract: In his classic studies on honeybee navigation, von Frisch had to rely on qualitative visual observations of the bees' flight paths, but nevertheless reached the surprising conclusion that bees seem to anticipate lateral wind drift and compensate by flying in shallow curves on the upwind side of their intended tracks1,2. We have investigated wind compensation1,2,3 with much greater precision by using radar4,5 to record the flight trajectories of individual bumble-bees (Bombus terrestris L.) foraging over arable farmland6. Flights typically covered distances of 200 to 700 metres, but bees maintained direct routes between the forage areas and their nests, even in winds with a strong cross-track component. Some bees overcompensated slightly, as described by von Frisch, but most stayed on course byheading partly into the wind and moving obliquely over the ground.

TL;DR: There is insufficient evidence to suggest that medication errors are caused by nurses' poor calculation skills, and the literature suggests that there are other more pressing aspects of nurses' preparation and administration of medications which are contributing to medication errors in practice that require more urgent attention.
