Integrated, Automated, and Reproducible Nuclear Data Processing at the NEA
Ensuring data preservation is a top priority for the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) Data Bank. Within this context, “preserving data” encompasses activities such as verifying, processing, sharing, improving, and storing the data. The NEA aims to automate these processes to the greatest extent possible, with the goal of providing the JEFF community with reproducible, high-quality data. To achieve this, the Data Bank has chosen to utilize GitLab, a web-based distributed Version Control System that facilitates the collaboration of different users. The author will present the current progress of the NEA pipeline, an ongoing collaborative initiative aimed at standardizing the processing, verification, and validation of nuclear data
Teho- ja valvontahoitopotilas sekä läheinen: Esittelyvideo tiedon lisäämiseksi
Tämän opinnäytetyön tavoitteena oli lisätä avoimuutta ja tietoisuutta teho- ja valvontahoidosta sekä poistaa siihen liittyviä ennakkokäsityksiä. Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli tuottaa esittelyvideo Oulun yliopistollisen sairaalan tehohoitokeskuksen tarpeeseen. Video julkaistiin sairaalan verkkosivuilla ja YouTube-kanavalla. Esittelyvideo on tarkoitettu terveydenhuoltoalan ammattilaisille, potilaille sekä läheisille. Esittelyvideon avulla katsoja pääsee tutustumaan tehohoidon toimintaympäristöön ja näkee uuden tehohoitokeskuksen toimintaa.
Opinnäytetyö toteutettiin kehittämispainotteisena työnä lineaarisen mallin mukaisesti, joka eteni tavoitteen määrittelystä ja suunnittelusta toteutukseen ja arviointiin. Opinnäytetyössä käytettiin vertaisarvioitua tutkimustietoa sekä tuoreita hoitotieteellisiä lähteitä, jotka käsittelivät tehohoitopotilasta, hoitoympäristöä sekä läheisiä. Opinnäytetyön teoreettisen taustan avulla esittelyvideo saatiin vastaamaan potilaan ja läheisen tiedontarpeita.
Johtopäätöksenä todettiin esittelyvideon tukevan opinnäytetyön tavoitteita ja sen koettiin tuovan tärkeää tietoa helposti saataville. Sen arvioitiin olevan hyödyksi suunnitellusti tehohoitoa tarvitsevalle, hänen läheisilleen, sinne työllistyvälle ja kaikille aiheesta kiinnostuneille. Esittelyvideon saavutettavuus YouTube-verkkosivulla mahdollisti sen hyödyntämisen oppilaitoksen sairaanhoitajan syventävissä opinnoissa.
Asiasanat: akuuttihoito, hoitotyö, läheiset, tehohoito, teho-osastotThe aim of this thesis was to increase transparency and awareness of intensive and high-dependency care, as well as to reduce related preconceptions. The purpose of the thesis was to produce an introductory video for the Intensive Care Unit of Oulu University Hospital. The video was published on the hospital’s website and YouTube channel. The video is intended for healthcare professionals, patients, and their relatives. Through the video, viewers are able to familiarize themselves with the intensive care environment and gain an understanding of the operations in the new ICU.
The thesis was carried out as a development-oriented project following a linear model, progressing from goal definition and planning to implementation and evaluation. Peer-reviewed research and recent nursing science literature concerning intensive care patients, care environments, and relatives were used as sources. Based on the theoretical background of the thesis, the video was designed to meet the informational needs of patients and their relatives
.
The conclusion was that the video supported the objectives of the thesis and made important information easily accessible. It was considered useful for patients in need of intensive care, their relatives, ICU staff, and anyone interested in the topic. The video’s accessibility on YouTube also unexpectedly enabled its use in advanced nursing studies at educational institutions.

A Weight of Seleucia in Pieria in Nea Paphos
Archaeological excavations carried out by a mission from the Jagiellonian University Institute of Archaeology on the site of the agora of Nea Paphos in Cyprus brought to light a lead weight with a Greek inscription giving the year 251 of an era and mentioning an agoranomos with the name Seleukos. On the basis of parallels, the author demonstrates that the weight must have been issued by the North Syrian city of Seleucia in Pieria, and the era used in the inscription is the civic era of Seleucia with the starting point in 109/108 BC, which allows one to date the object to AD 142/143. He argues that the structure where the object was found can tentatively be identified as agoranomeion of Nea Paphos
Unequal Exchange: Developing Countries in the International Trade Negotiations
The outcome of the Uruguay Round show that the concessions given by developing countries were more valuable than those they received from industrial countries. I suggest that this outcome is explained by the aggresive demands from industrial countries and the lack of resources (human and financial) at the disposal of developing countries. The paper discussess the costs of these unequal exchanges, and the structural factors that help to understand the processess leading to these outcomes.Uruguay Round, Developing countries, Reciprocity,
Unequal Exchange: Developing Countries in the International Trade Negotiations
The results of the Uruguay Round, show that the concessions given by developing countries were generally more valuable than those they received from industrial countries. I suggest that this outcome is explained by aggressive demands from industrial countries, and by the lack of resources at the disposal of developing countries. These and other “structural factors”, weaken the negotiating capacity of developing countries and the outcome of their bargaining, is likely to be an “unequal exchange of concessions”. The paper discussess the costs of these exchanges, and the structural factors that help to understand the processes leading to these outcomes.Uruguay Round, Multilateral Negotiations, Developing countries, Unbalanced reciprocity
CSNI validation matrix for the assessment of thermal-hydraulic codes for PWR LOCA and Transients
As Italian representative inside the thermal-hydraulic task group of Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) / Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) / Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations (CSNI), the current author contributed to a preliminary activity which ended up in an OECD publication. The framework of the activity is assessment and validation of system thermal-hydraulic codes.
Preliminary steps were taken to fix the requirements for the validation. Importance was given to the experimental data and to the scaling processes. The document evolved in about five years to the form a pillar document in the area of nuclear thermalhydraulics. Coauthors were top level researches and specialists working in the area at the time
A Pseudo-Ionic Blocked-out Capital at Nea Paphos
The paper discusses recent studies on the capital of a column found in the western courtyard of the ‘Hellenistic House’ at Nea Paphos in 2008. The capital presents a very specific set of features which allows us to identify it with the architectural decoration in the Nabatean type known from Petra, Egypt and Cyprus. The comparative analysis allowed the author to recognize the capital from the ‘Hellenistic House’ as analogous to the so-called pseudo-Ionic ones, so far known only from Petra. However, this term, suggesting that capitals of that type originated from the Ionic order, seems to be inappropriate due to specific features of the pseudo-Ionic capitals. The paper discuses one of the three recognized so far types of the blocked-out capitals in the ‘Nabatean’ style from the site; the other will be presented in further papers

Nea Ionia Magnesia, Grecia. Un progetto urbano
Il saggio partendo dalla recensione del progetto vincitore del concorso Europan7- affronta la tematica del ruolo del progetto urbano nella trasformazione della città. Lo studio di cui fa parte l’autrice, vince nel 2003 il concorso in Grecia, a Nea Ionia presso Volos. Il tema del concorso è il progetto di un nuovo quartiere residenziale con servizi, una scuola e un centro cittadino. il progetto costituisce un frammento autonomo di città che intende riconnotare il contesto e confrontarsi con esso attraverso una impostazione identitaria esplicita e dirompente. La ricerca di una memoria antica di un luogo ormai privato dei segni dell’origine è costante in tutta la costruzione del nuovo insediamento e della sua rappresentazione come unica affermazione della possibilità del nuovo. Ne consegue l’impegno a ridurre al limite le connotazioni stilistiche in favore di un linguaggio scarnificato e composto di soli elementi primari, attraverso cui la mediterraneità è rievocata come condizione fondativa più che semplice riferimento figurativo. Su sollecitazione del bando il concetto di “durabilità” dell’architettura diventa centrale per la riflessione sulla trasformazione urbana. L’intero intervento risolve in tal senso le richieste funzionali.The essay starting with the review of the winning design Europan7-addresses the issue of the role of urban design in the transformation of the city. The study which is part of the author, he won the competition in 2003 in Greece, Nea Ionia in Volos. The theme of the competition is the design of a new residential neighborhood with amenities, a school and a town center. the project is a fragment autonomous city intends riconnotare the context and deal with it through an explicit setting of identity and disruptive. The search for an ancient memory of a place now deprived of the signs of the origin is constant throughout the construction of the new settlement and its representation as the only affirmation of the possibility of the new. Consequently, efforts to reduce the limit the stylistic connotations in favor of a language stripped and consists of only primary elements, through which the Mediterranean is commemorated as a condition founding more than just figurative reference. At the urging of the notice, the concept of "durability" of architecture becomes central to the debate on urban transformation. The entire intervention results in this sense, the functional requirements
