In the debate on the core of Information System (IS), El Sawy identified three faces of IS views: connection, immersion, and fusion. However, no research has further elaborated these concepts. For this task, we adopted the characteristics of the old concept of “emergence” to better describe and explain the shifts in IS from connection to immersion and finally towards fusion. A police organization

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hemolytiskt uremiskt syndrom (HUS) och trombotiskt trombocytopen purpura (TTP) är allvarliga sjukdomar hos barn och vuxna. HUS kännetecknas av mikroangiopatisk hemolytisk anemi (blodbrist med nedbrytning av röda blodkroppar), trombocytopeni (låga blodplättar) och akut njursvikt. Det är den vanligaste orsaken till akut njursvikt hos barn. Typisk HUS utlöses av tarminfektThis study investigated the pathogenesis of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). (1) The relative roles of lipopolysaccharide and Shiga-like toxin-2 were studied in a mouse model of Escherichia coli O157:H7 infection. Both factors were found to be important for the virulence of the strain and contributed in an additive manner. The mouse model mimicked cert

Cooperative content replication and request routing (C2R3) has emerged as a promising technique to enhance the efficiency of content delivery networks (CDN). Most existing approaches to C2R3 focus on efficient bandwidth usage and assume a hierarchical CDN architecture targeted towards the delivery of specific content types (e.g., video). Therefore, C2R3 problem of covering the broad range of conte

Anaerobic digestion is a microbially mediated process occurring in nature in the absence of oxygen and other non-carbonaceous electron acceptors. The majority of the carbon of the organic matter degraded in the process is transformed into carbon dioxide and methane. Most of the energy potential of the degraded material is conserved in the methane, thus providing a renewable energy carrier, which c

Photosynthesis in plants is a very complicated process, utilizing two photosystems in series to carry out the very energy-demanding process of oxidizing water to molecular oxygen and reducing carbon dioxide to organic compounds. The first photosynthetic organisms, living more than 3.4, perhaps even 3.8 Ga, i.e. American billion (109) years ago, carried out a simpler process, without oxygen product
