In dit rapport heeft CELTH onderzocht wat de relatie is tussen tevredenheid en beleving, en in welke mate die beleving afhangt van specifieke momenten tijdens een dagje uit in dierentuinen. De resultaten die besproken worden in dit rapport geven inzicht in de verschillende manieren waarop dierentuinen beleefd worden. Daarnaast wordt duidelijk welke ontwerp attributen (touchpoints) bijdragen aan verschillende typen beleving. Dit rapport is daarmee de eerste belevingsbenchmark voor deze specifieke sector.

In deze rapportage presenteren we de eerste bevindingen uit ons verkennende onderzoek naar de ontwikkeling en implementatie van blended ondersteuning. Het betreft een verkenning van wat sociaal professionals zien als blended ondersteuning; van wat zij zien als de meerwaarde ervan voor het beantwoorden van de hulpvraag van de cliënt; en van wat sociaal professionals nodig hebben om blended ondersteuning te kunnen bieden.

Rapid creation of new services for telecommunications systems is hindered by the feature interaction problem. This is an important issue for development of IN services, not only because of interactions\namong IN services themselves but because of interactions of IN services with switch-based services and potential interactions with services not yet developed. Furthermore, the problem is fundamental to services creation; it is not restricted to IN services. Any platform for telecommunication services requires a method for dealing with the feature interaction problem. A number of approaches for managing feature interactions have been proposed. However, lack of structured ways to categorize feature interactions makes it difficult to determine if a particular approach has addressed some, if not all, classes of interactions. We describe and analyze a number of feature interactions by using two independent classification schemes. This paper is a step to achieving the goal of a coherent industry-wide collection of\nillustrative features and their interactions. The collection will helpconvey the scope of the feature interaction problem. It will also serve as a benchmark for determining the coverage of various approaches, and as a guideline for identifying potential interactions in software architectures and platforms.

Sommige ggz-aanbieders behalen betere behandeluitkomsten dan andere. We kunnen dus wat van elkaar leren. Transparantie over behandeluitkomsten is daarvoor essentieel. Patiënten die behoefte hebben aan keuze-informatie, zorgverzekeraars die optimale kwaliteit wensen tegen acceptabele kosten en hulpverleners die van elkaar willen leren, hebben daar allemaal baat bij. De auteurs laten zien hoe behandeluitkomsten gebruikt kunnen worden voor het verbeteren van de kwaliteit van zorg in de ggz aan mensen met ernstige psychische aandoeningen. Een belangrijke strategie daarvoor in benchmarken. Maar over benchmarken bestaat veel verwarring. Waarom is benchmarken zo belangrijk? Hoe komt een benchmark tot stand? En hoe kun je een benchmark inzetten voor kwaliteitsverbetering? Nugter, A., Schaefer, B., Swildens, W. (4 april 2017). SBG Conferentie “GGZ Behandeluitkomsten: Bron voor kwaliteitsbeleid in de GGZ.

While the original definition of replacement focuses on the replacement of the use of animals in science, a more contemporary definition focuses on accelerating the development and use of predictive and robust models, based on the latest science and technologies, to address scientific questions without the use of animals. The transition to animal free innovation is on the political agenda in and outside the European Union. The Beyond Animal Testing Index (BATI) is a benchmarking instrument designed to provide insight into the activities and contributions of research institutes to the transition to animal free innovation. The BATI allows participating organizations to learn from each other and stimulates continuous improvement. The BATI was modelled after the Access to Medicine Index, which benchmarks pharmaceutical companies on their efforts to make medicines widely available in developing countries. A prototype of the BATI was field-tested with three Dutch academic medical centers and two universities in 2020-2021. The field test demonstrated the usability and effectiveness of the BATI as a benchmarking tool. Analyses were performed across five different domains. The participating institutes concluded that the BATI served as an internal as well as an external stimulus to share, learn, and improve institutional strategies towards the transition to animal free innovation. The BATI also identified gaps in the development and implementation of 3R technologies. Hence, the BATI might be a suitable instrument for monitoring the effectiveness of policies. BATI version 1.0 is ready to be used for benchmarking at a larger scale.

ion of verb agreement by hearing learners of a sign language. During a 2-year period, 14 novel learners of Sign Language of the Netherlands (NGT) with a spoken language background performed an elicitation task 15 times. Seven deaf native signers and NGT teachers performed the same task to serve as a benchmark group. The results obtained show that for some learners, the verb agreement system of NGT was difficult to master, despite numerous examples in the input. As compared to the benchmark group, learners tended to omit agreement markers on verbs that could be modified, did not always correctly use established locations associated with discourse referents, and made characteristic errors with respect to properties that are important in the expression of agreement (movement and orientation). The outcomes of the study are of value to practitioners in the field, as they are informative with regard to the nature of the learning process during the first stages of learning a sign language.

SUMMARY Architecture compliance checking (ACC) is an approach to verify conformance of implemented program code to high-level models of architec tural design. Static ACC focuses on the modular software architecture and on the existence of rule violating dependencies between modules. Accurate tool support is essential for effective and efficient ACC. This paper presents a study on the accuracy of ACC tools regarding dependency analysis and violation reporting. Ten tools were tested and compare d by means of a custom-made benchmark. The Java code of the benchmark testware contains 34 different types of dependencies, which are based on an inventory of dependency types in object oriented program code. In a second test, the code of open source system FreeMind was used to compare the 10 tools on the number of reported rule violating dependencies and the exactness of the dependency and violation messages. On the average, 77% of the dependencies in our custom-made test software were reported, while 72% of the dependencies within a module of FreeMind were reported. The results show that all tools in the test could improve the accuracy of the reported dependencies and violations, though large differences between the 10 tools were observed. We have identified10 hard-to-detect types of dependencies and four challenges in dependency detection. The relevance of our findings is substantiated by means of a frequency analysis of the hard-to-detect types of dependencies in five open source systems. DOI: 10.1002/spe.2421
