Functional programs that explain their work [PDF]
We present techniques that enable higher-order functional computations to "explain" their work by answering questions about how parts of their output were calculated. As explanations, we consider the traditional notion of program slices, which we show can be inadequate, and propose a new notion: trace slices.

Epitaxial Graphene and Graphene–Based Devices Studied by Electrical Scanning Probe Microscopy
We present local electrical characterization of epitaxial graphene grown on both Si- and C-faces of 4H-SiC using Electrostatic Force Microscopy and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy in ambient conditions and at elevated temperatures. These techniques provide

Measuring Work Functioning: Validity of a Weighted Composite Work Functioning Approach
To examine the construct validity of a weighted composite work functioning measurement approach.Workers (health-impaired/healthy) (n = 117) completed a composite measure survey that recorded four central work functioning aspects with existing scales: capacity to work, quality of work performance, quantity of work, and recovery from work.

Workaholism versus work engagement and job crafting: What is the role of self-management strategies? [PDF]
Job crafting refers to the proactive actions employees take to redesign their jobs in order to get a better fit with their competencies, expectations, and wishes. So far, little is known about job crafting's underlying mechanisms.

The effect of synthesis time on morphology and electronic structure of polyaniline [PDF]
The paper investigates the morphology and electronic structure change of polyaniline as a function of the synthesis time. It is shown that the band gap of a polymer decreases with increasing duration of the synthesis time due to a change in the number

Modulation of PtSi Work Function by Alloying with Low Work Function Metal
In order to reduce PtSi Schottky barrier height (SBH) for electron, we investigated modulation of PtSi work function by alloying with low work function metal, such as Hf (3.9eV) and Yb (2.7eV). Pt (10-20nm)/Hf, Yb (0-10nm)/n-Si(100) stacked structures were in-situ deposited at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering method.
