That\u27s An Irish Lullaby (Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral)
No full text[Verse 1] Over in Killarney, Many years ago, Me Mither sang a song to me In tones so sweet and low, Just a simple little ditty, In her good ould Irish way, And I’d give the world if she could sing That song to me this day.
[Chorus] “Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Hush now, don’t you cry! Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li, Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, That’s an Irish lullaby.”
[Verse 2] Oft, in dreams, I wander To that cot again, I feel her arms a huggin’ me As when she held me then. And I hear her voice a hummin’ To me as in days of yore, When she used to tuck me fast asleep Outside the cabin door.

Analysis of DVB-H network coverage with the application of transmit diversity
No full textThis paper investigates the effects of the Cyclic Delay Diversity (CDD) transmit diversity scheme on DVB-H networks. Transmit diversity improves reception and Quality of Service (QoS) in areas of poor coverage such as sparsely populated or obscured locations. The technique not only povides robust reception in mobile environments thus improving QoS, but it also reduces network costs in terms of the transmit power, number of
infrastructure elements, antenna height and the frequency reuse factor over indoor and outdoor environments. In this paper, the benefit and effectiveness of CDD transmit diversity is tackled
through simulation results for comparison in several scenarios of coverage in DVB-H networks. The channel model used in the simulations is based on COST207 and a basic radio planning
technique is used to illustrate the main principles developed in this paper. The work reported in this paper was supported by
the European Commission IST project—PLUTO (Physical Layer DVB Transmission Optimization)

Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
On the relation between tillering, leaf area dynamics and growth of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perennne L.)
No full textModern intensively managed grasslands are subject to sward deterioration as a result of urine scorching, treading, winter mortality and late mowing or grazing. The major species in Dutch grasslands is perennial ryegrass. Deterioration consists of a decreasing presence of this species through death of tillers and plant. This gives rise to open swards which are subject to weed invasion and leads to a reduced productivity and nitrogen recovery. The objectives of this study were to increase the understanding of the recovery potential of open perennial ryegrass swards and of the relation between tiller density and herbage accumulation. Tiller production, tiller mortality, leaf area dynamics and growth as affected by cutting treatment, water availability, nitrogen supply and plant density were studied in field, glasshouse and phytotron experiments. The relative tiller appearance rate was studied as the product of leaf appearance rate and site filling. Leaf appearance rate was highly positively correlated with temperature and negatively with cutting height. Cutting frequency had no effect. Leaf appearance rate was reduced by low water potential and low nitrogen supply. Site filling decreased with decreasing nitrogen supply and increasing leaf area index. Just after defoliation, site filling was lower than later after defoliation, because of low substrate availability to developing tiller buds. In studying the effect of low and high nitrogen supply, genetic variation was found in nitrogen use efficiency. Populations with a high nitrogen use efficiency and a high herbage accumulation rate, also had a high leaf weight ratio and high tillering capacity. Models were developed for the simulation of changes in tiller number, leaf area expansion and dry matter accumulation of spaced plants and swards. These models were used for sensitivity analyses of the effect of leaf area expansion rate and leaf weight ratio on regrowth after defoliation and for the analysis of the importance of substrate availability for tillering and regrowth. The field experiments and the sward model showed that even with very low seeding rates, the amount of herbage harvested in the second harvest year is not lower than at very high seeding rates. Therefore, it was concluded that only when a low tiller density coincides with a clumped distribution of tillers and with a high frequency of patches without perennial ryegrass, reseeding of perennial ryegrass swards should be considered
Organic meat marketing
No full textThis chapter discusses the marketing aspect of organic meat. Many factors influence the organic food purchase behavior and these factors are described. With organic meat being sold for high premium prices, the consumers' willingness to pay for these products is an important attribute to determine the potential of these products. Sociodemographic variables of the organic food consumers are described to get an overview of the organic consumer profile
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
