Design Is Construction, Construction Is Design

open access: yesShe Ji: The Journal of Design, Economics, and Innovation, 2019
This is a commentary on Michael Lissack’s two-part article “Understanding is a Design Problem: Cognizing from a Designerly Thinking Perspective.” Lissack’s claim that cognition and meaning making can be understood as design processes is a reiteration of arguments already put forward by constructivist thinkers.

Inpatient Food Insecurity and Pediatric Hematology Oncology Hospitalization Outcomes

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with cancer and blood disorders are at risk for food insecurity (FI). We aimed to describe the association of inpatient food insecurity (IFI) and hospitalization outcomes among patients admitted to the pediatric hematology oncology service. Of 325 caregivers screened for IFI, 60 (18.6%) screened positive.

Use and validity of principles of extremum of entropy production in the study of complex systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
It is shown how both the principles of extremum of entropy production, which are often used in the study of complex systems, follow from the maximization of overall system conductivities, under appropriate constraints.
