Agribusiness, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 28-50, Winter 2023., 2023 Abstract By 2022, the European Commission seeks to introduce harmonized, mandatory front‐of‐pack (FOP) nutrition labeling. The color‐graded Nutri‐Score is at the heart of the European debate. Yet, little is known about how the information provided in back‐of‐pack (BOP) nutrition tables interacts with evaluative FOP labels, such as Nutri‐Score, and if ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 191, Issue 1, Page 299-305, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Informing parents that their child has a diagnosis of Down syndrome (DS) is a common example of the delivery of unexpected or difficult news. Expectations and life planning will change, and if detected prenatally, discussions might include the option of pregnancy termination.

Implementation of Time-Delay Interferometry for LISA [PDF]
Phys.Rev. D67 (2003) 122003, 2003 We discuss the baseline optical configuration for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission, in which the lasers are not free-running, but rather one of them is used as the main frequency reference generator (the {\it master}) and the remaining five as {\it slaves}, these being phase-locked to the master (the {\it master-slave configuration}

Master-slave Deep Architecture for Top-K Multi-armed Bandits with Non-linear Bandit Feedback and Diversity Constraints [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We propose a novel master-slave architecture to solve the top-$K$ combinatorial multi-armed bandits problem with non-linear bandit feedback and diversity constraints, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first combinatorial bandits setting considering diversity constraints under bandit feedback.

Distributed Parametric and Statistical Model Checking [PDF]
EPTCS 72, 2011, pp. 30-42, 2011 Statistical Model Checking (SMC) is a trade-off between testing and formal verification. The core idea of the approach is to conduct some simulations of the system and verify if they satisfy some given property. In this paper we show that SMC is easily parallelizable on a master/slaves architecture by introducing a series of algorithms that scale ...

Politics of evidence: Think tanks and the Academies Act
British Educational Research Journal, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1232-1253, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Previous research has identified political ideology as central in the landmark Academies Act (2010). This article further analyses how politics of evidence played its part in the policy process by focusing on long‐term structural changes and preferences among policymakers. The article draws on policymaker interviews after the reform, a mapping

“In this Trade, No Places are Held:” Involvement of Portuguese slave traders in the slave trade between Africa and Brazil (1818-1828) [PDF]
História, 2017 Between 1818 and 1828, the Portuguese Board of Trade (known locally as the Junta do Comércio) gave ships departing from Lisbon permission to traffic African slaves to Brazil.

Phase diagram of ultracold atoms on optical lattice: Comparative study to slave fermion and slave boson for Bose Hubbard modelPhase diagram of ultracold atoms in optical lattices: Comparative study of slave fermion and slave boson approaches to Bose-Hubbard model [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A71, 033608 (2005), 2004 We perform a comparative study of the finite temperature behavior of ultracold Bose atoms in optical lattices by the slave fermion and the slave boson approaches to the Bose Hubbard model. The phase diagram of the system is presented. Although both approaches are equivalent without approximations, the mean field theory based on the slave fermion ...

A Caribbean Affair: The Liberalisation of the Slave Trade in the Spanish Caribbean, 1784-1791
Culture & History Digital Journal, 2019 The liberalisation of the slave trade in the Spanish Caribbean ended with a series of political measures which aimed to revitalise the practice of slavery in the region. After granting a series of monopoly contracts (asientos) to merchant houses based in
