Recruitment for the armed services formed a central part of wartime policies, and this chapter addresses the recruitment which took place in Scotland, comparing this with England. The chapter addresses all the different types of armed units which were raised in the 1790s, ranging from regular forces such as the Army and the Royal Navy, to the different kinds of forces for ‘internal defence’ that were set up, the Fencibles, Volunteer Corps and Auxiliaries. Most attention has, however, been given to the raising of a Scottish Militia in 1797, and the main argument presented with respect to this is that – while the militia riots were not doubt serious and widespread – Scottish responses to the Militia Act were more varied that has often been allowed. There were many Scots who either supported the measure, or demonstrated their opposition in more constructive ways than to stage riots.

The aim of the present study was to determine effects of both, different types ofcytoplasm (cms-C, cms-S and fertile) and environmental factors on the kernel rownumber of 12 maize inbreds lines. The trial with inbred lines was set up in twolocations (Zemun Polje-Selection field and Zemun Polje-Školsko dobro) in 2013and 2014. Moreover, the three-replicate trials were set up according to therandomised complete block design within each type of cytoplasm. Each plot withinthe replicate consisted of four rows. Fertile versions of inbred lines were sown intwo border rows and they were pollinators for their sterile counterparts. Statisticbiometricdata processing was based on mean values per replicate and included theanalysis of variance. According to this analysis, significant differences in thekernel row number were established among inbred lines in dependence on the typeof cytoplasm, year and the location. The average kernel row number ranged from10.3 (L9) to 15.8 (L5 and L7). The variation of the kernel row number, related to thesource of cytoplasm, was very significant. Differences (Lsd0.01) in the kernel rownumber were not determined in inbred lines L5, L8, L10 and L12 in regard to the typeof cytoplasm: cms-C, cms-S and fertile. The average kernel row numbersignificantly (P1%) varied in regard to the year of investigation. A higher averagevalue (13.75) was established in 2014 than in 2013 (13.31). The kernel row numberper year very significantly varied (Lsd0.01) in all inbreds, but the differences werenot significant in the inbreds L2, L3, L8, L9 and L12. Gained results point out toeffects of different types of cytoplasm on the kernel row number.

Abstract Modern controlling is an interdisciplinary field that allows management to manage properly, thereby creating the basis for good decision-making. Logistics operations in smart companies need to be not only properly set up, but also properly controlled and improved. The purpose of the article is to analyze the controlling environment in a selected company and point out possible improvements in logistics activities and devices, with a view to preventing different types of problems. For this purpose, observations of the internal logistics processes in a selected company were used and quantified to assess its internal state. On the basis of the data, controlling measures are put forward to improve the management of the company’s logistics activities. The results of the research highlight the opportunities that exist through controlling activities to collect and analyze information about the logistics activities of a company. By doing so, employees can be given greater responsibility for the fulfilment of their tasks and contribute to the streamlining of logistics processes. For managers, the implementation of controlling represents a change in the way of thinking and managing a company.

This paper addresses the paradox that despite all organizational change towards flatter and postmodern organizations, hierarchical order is quite persistent. We develop a differentiated understanding of hierarchy as either formal or informal and apply this analytical framework to several types of organization. The analysis reveals that hierarchy is much more widespread than thought; in particular, postmodern, representative democratic and network organizations are much less ‘alternative’ and ‘hierarchy-free’ than their labels and common understanding may suggest. The main argument is that the persistence of hierarchy in different types of organization can be explained by different dynamic relationships between formal and informal hierarchy.

The Web

In recent years, there has been a steady shift in the nature of Web applications. The vehicle of this transition of Web applications is us, the people. The ability to post photographs or videos, exchange music snippets with peers, and annotate a piece of information, are but a few exemplars of this phenomenon. Indeed, the pseudonym Web 2.0 (O’Reilly, 2005) has been used to describe the apparent “socialization” of the Web. In spite of the significant prospects offered by humancentric Web applications, the mere fact that virtually anyone can set up such applications claiming to sell products and services or upload/post unscrutinized information on a topic as being “definitive,” raises the issues of credibility from a consumers’ viewpoint. Therefore, establishing credibility is essential for an organization’s reputation and for building consumers’ trust. The rest of the article is organized as follows. We first provide the background necessary for later discussion. This is followed by the introduction of a framework within which different types of credibility in the context of human-centric Web applications can be systematically addressed and thereby improved. Next, challenges and directions for future research are outlined. Finally, concluding remarks are given.

For the development of laboratory experiments on the competitive interacitons between freshwater snail populations, special snail rooms were set up in the main building of the Research Center "Aggeu Magalhães". In the current paper, the first of a series on this subject, the general methodology of the laboratory work is described in detail. Using indoor cement channels in which a uniform seminatural environment was created, interactions of freshwater snail populations can be studied with minimal interference of the usual variables. Controlled indoor environmental techniques, as described in the current paper, may also be utilized in different types of experiments in malacology, and represent a substantial technical advance in malacological work.

High Flexibility

Magnetic micromachines as wireless end-effectors have been widely applied for drug discovery and regenerative medicine. Yet, the magnetic assembly of arbitrarily shaped cellular microstructures with high efficiency and flexibility still remains a big challenge. Here, a novel clamp-shape micromachine using magnetic nanoparticles was developed for the indirect untethered bioassembly. With a multi-layer template, the nickel nanoparticles were mixed with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for mold replication of the micromachine with a high-resolution and permeability. To actuate the micromachine with a high flexibility and large scalable operation range, a multi-pole electromagnetic system was set up to generate a three-dimensional magnetic field in a large workspace. Through designing a series of flexible translations and rotations with a velocity of 15mm/s and 3 Hz, the micromachine realized the propel-and-throw strategy to overcome the inevitable adhesion during bioassembly. The hydrogel microstructures loaded with different types of cells or the bioactive materials were effectively assembled into microtissues with reconfigurable shape and composition. The results indicate that indirect magnetic manipulation can perform an efficient and versatile bioassembly of cellular micromodules, which is promising for drug trials and modular tissue engineering.
