Practical Implications

We conducted two studies in which we examined the contingent relationships among interactional injustice, workplace aggression, and organizational remedy. In the field study (Study 1) involving 192 full-time employees in Mainland China we found that different types of interactional injustice had very different effects in terms of the form of workplace aggression triggered. In the experimental study (Study 2) with 189 graduate and undergraduate students at 2 Chinese universities, the results revealed that the effectiveness of the organizational remedy in mitigating workplace aggression depended on the matching of the type of remedy offered by the organization or its agents with the type of interactional injustice the aggrieved employee perceived that he or she had suffered. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Research Findings

In our pronunciation courses, segmental level in English pronunciation plays a very important role in perception and teaching of English pronunciation. This research aims to investigate into the most salient pronunciation problems at segmental level by fresh college students from Mainland China through an experimental study, and it is found that the mismatches identified in the segmental level of English pronunciation are corresponded with the phonological features of the utterance of Chinese English. Moreover, in order to improve fresh college students’ pronunciation and achieve the pronunciation of Standard English, some pedagogical implications and suggestions about teaching strategies are provided in this study which aimed at the most salient mismatches discovered in the research findings.

The Skyline queries retrieve a set of data whose elements are incomparable in terms of multiple user-defined criteria. In addition, Top-k Skyline queries filter the best k Skyline points where k is the number of answers desired by the user. Several index-based algorithms have been proposed for the evaluation of Top-k Skyline queries. These algorithms make use of indexes defined on a single attribute and they require an index for each user-defined criterion. In traditional databases, the use of multidimensional indices has shown that may improve the performance of database queries. In this chapter, three pruning criteria were defined and several algorithms were developed to evaluate Top-k Skyline queries. The proposed algorithms are based on a multidimensional index, pruning criteria and the strategies Depth First Search and Breadth First Search. Finally, an experimental study was conducted in this chapter to analyze the performance and answer quality of the proposed algorithms.

ABSTRACT Background: The coronavirus disease pandemic was initiated in Wuhan province of mainland China in December 2019 and has spread over the world. Objective: This study analyses the effects of COVID 19 based on Likely Positive Cases and fatality in India during and after the lockdown period from 24 March 2020 to 24 May 2020. Methods: Python has been used as the main programming language for data analysis and forecasting using the Prophet Model, a time series analysis model. The dataset has been preprocessed by grouping together the days for total numbers of cases and deaths on few selected dates and removed missing values present in some states. Results: The Prophet model performs better in terms of precision on the real data. Prediction depicts that during the lockdown, the total cases were rising but in a controlled manner with an accuracy of 87%. After the relaxation of lockdown rules, the predictions have shown an obstreperous situation with an accuracy of 60%. Conclusion: The resilience could have been better if the lockdown with strict norms was continued without much relaxation. The situation after lockdown has been found to be uncertain as observed by the experimental study conducted in this work.

Illumination Mode

The tilted beam illumination method is used to improve the resolution comparing with the axial illumination mode. Using this advantage, a restoration method of several tilted beam images covering the full azimuthal range was proposed by Saxton, and experimentally examined. To make this technique more reliable it seems that some practical problems still remain. In this report the restoration was attempted and the problems were considered. In our study, four problems were pointed out for the experiment of the restoration. (1) Accurate beam tilt adjustment to fit the incident beam to the coma-free axis for the symmetrical beam tilting over the full azimuthal range. (2) Accurate measurements of the optical parameters which are necessary to design the restoration filter. Even if the spherical aberration coefficient Cs is known with accuracy and the axial astigmatism is sufficiently compensated, at least the defocus value must be measured. (3) Accurate alignment of the tilt-azimuth series images.
