Modern robotics brings up a variety of new challenges. Industrial-only times are gone forever. Nowadays, by performing many diversified services, robots turned out to be a part of our everyday life. There is no doubt that they should be able to interact with this new miscellaneous environment seamlessly. Along with the number of requirements, the importance of software increases. While gaining more autonomy, besides standard motion control, a wide range of cogntive tasks has to be executed simultaneously. It is quite obvious that complex systems with a lot of independent modules and many functions to perform need flexible and reliable sofware solutions. This article takes a Real-Time Operating System as an answer to the problems of the new generation robotics.By comparing selected features, it provides an evaluation of the most popular commercial and non-commercial solutions. Paper describes the key characteristics that should be taken into consideration during the design process and presents several examples of their successful robotic applications, including our own choices for decentralized controllers.

Instytut Architektury i Urbanistyki PŁ prowadzi w ramach zajęć dydaktycznych inwentaryzacje zabytkowych budowli. Pomiary te realizowane są w ramach dwutygodniowych praktyk letnich dla studentów 4. semestru. W roku 2000 praktyki przeprowadzono w Łodzi, Zduńskiej Woli i Radomiu. W tym ostatnim przypadku inwentaryzacja związana byla z badaniami architektoniczno-archeologicznymi, dotyczącymi rozpoznania relików zamku królewskiego. Jego pozostałości umiejscowione są w murach budynku plebanii kosciola św. Jana Chrzciciela.

It is part of the curriculum at Architecture Studies at the Institute of Architecture and Town Planning (IAiU) at Lodz Technical University to survey the historical architecture during the outdoor classes held after the 4th semester. The students are asked to make a detailed measurement of the building in scale 1:50, alongside with getting acquainted with its historical alterations and the relevant preservation problems. In 2000 such a course at Radom was attended by 5 students supervised by IAiU tutors. The building surveyed was a rectory of St John the Baptist located on the premises of the former Royal castle. This hitherto hardly penetrated complex this year became subject of archaeological and architectural examination. To run them properly it was necessary to take measures of the rectory which has in its outer circuit walls the remainders of the main (southern) wing of the castle. The building situated along the defence walls was erected in the dawn of the 2°d half of the 14th century. It was built of bricks on the foundations of natural stone. In the 16th century it underwent significant alterations, first Renaissance, then Baroque. After destruction and 181h century demolition, right on the relics of the castle's structure a rectory was erected, still preserved. The executed survey provides for better understanding of the complex structure of the building and in future will be the basis for a detailed strati graphical study. Initially it may be presumed that the Gothic wing was originally shorter and was extended in the course of the 2nd, Gothic or Renaissance, stage. One can identify the remainders of the eastern, so called White Tower. Further research is due to verify the hypothesis.

The influence of public green space on the value of real estate has been proven many times in different publications. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate which factors, in Poznań inhabitants’ opinions, influenced the real estate value and if residents of individual parts of the city noticed the influence of public green space on the value of their real estate. From April to July 2015 we conducted preliminary research on asking prices of residences in Poznań (n = 480). We conducted quantitative analysis (n = 366) for a questionnaire survey. The most expensive residences in Poznań are located in the sector with the greatest amount of public green space. However, in spite of the fact that there had been proven differences in the prices of residences, only a slight majority of respondents (54%) saw the influence of green space on these prices. In our study the respondents indicated that the choice of residences was mostly influenced by the price and living space area. Only 1 out of more than 12 respondents found access to public green space to be important for making a decision about the choice of residences. Green space in Poznań is poorly used as a tool increasing the attractiveness of public space in the city and the city inhabitants are too rarely aware of the fact that it influences real estate value.

Wpływ zieleni publicznej na wartość nieruchomości został już wiele razy udowodniony w różnych publikacjach, dlatego celem artykułu było zbadanie, jakie czynniki — według mieszkańców Poznania — mają wpływ na wartość nieruchomości i czy mieszkańcy poszczególnych części miasta zauważają wpływ zieleni publicznej na wartość swoich nieruchomości. W okresie kwiecień–lipiec 2015 roku przeprowadzono kwerendę ofertowych cen mieszkań w Poznaniu (n = 480 ). W celu wykonania badań ankietowych posłużono się analizą ilościową. W Poznaniu najdroższe mieszkania zlokalizowane są w sektorze o największym udziale zieleni publicznej, jednak pomimo wcześniej wykazanych różnic w cenach mieszkań, tylko nieznaczna większość respondentów (54% ) dostrzega wpływ zieleni na cenę mieszkania. W badaniu respondenci wskazywali, że w największym stopniu na wybór mieszkania wpływały: cena oraz powierzchnia mieszkalna. Zaledwie dla 1 na ponad 12 osób ważna przy wyborze mieszkania była dostępność zieleni publicznej. Tereny zieleni w Poznaniu są słabo wykorzystywanym narzędziem zwiększenia atrakcyjności przestrzeni publicznych miasta oraz są zbyt rzadko funkcjonującym w świadomości mieszkańców czynnikiem wpływającym na wartość nieruchomości.

Introduction: Voice disorders in children especially in the school-age period comprise a major and challenging medical, social and educational issue. There is a lack of epidemiological data regarding children’s voice in Poland which limits the development of preventive and medical pediatric procedures in our country. Objective: The aim of study was to determine the prevalence of voice disorders in children starting school education in Mazovia. Material and method: The study was a retrospective analysis of survey data from parents of children attending the first grade of primary school. The survey consists of five questions describing the voice. A statistical analysis of 7891 questionnaires was carried out. Results: Analysis of the survey showed a prevalence of dysphonia in 12.8% children aged 7 starting primary school. In this study, voice disorders were observed more often in boys (14.6%) than girls (10.8%). The authors presented the correlation between voice disorders and the expression of emotions. Conclusions: Studies have shown that the percentage of children with voice disorders is significant in our country. The survey regarding voice in school children in Mazovia shows preliminary results of voice disorders in the pediatric population in Poland.

W pracy przeanalizowano zgodność teorii S. Knothego z wynikami pomiarów osiadań nieustalonych prowadzonych na 6 liniach obser-wacyjnych. Głębokość eksploatacji wynosiła od 64 m do 500 m. Postęp frontu eksploatacyjnego zmieniał się od 1,4 m/d do okoto 5 m/d. Wartości współczynnika prędkości osiadania wyznaczono odrębnie dla kolejnych cykli pomiarowych, przyjmując pozostate parametry teorii do obliczeń wyznaczone z niecki asymptotycznej. Na podstawie wyników obliczeń sformułowano wnioski dotyczące możliwości podnoszenia jakości prognoz osiadań chwilowych i podano dalsze możliwe kierunki badań.

The paper analysed the conformity of S. Knothe theory with the results of the survey for transient state subsidence performed on 6 survey lines. The exploitation depth was from 64 m to 500 m. The daily face advance was changing from 1,4 m to ca. 5 m. The coeficient value of thc subsidence velocity has been determined individually for subsequent surveying cycles, adopting other parameters of the theory determined from the asymptotic subsiding trough. Based on the results of calculations, conclusions are fotmulated in respect to the possibility of quality improvement of the instantaneous prognosis for surface subsidence and further possible directions of research are indicated.

Research shows that although most children violate important behavioral norms at some point in time, it is possible to distinguish among them those who do so more intensely, engaging in physical and verbal aggression, abusing drugs, cigarettes and alcohol, stealing, committing acts of vandalism or failing to follow the rules set by adults. Not all of these behaviors are identified in time by the institutions of formal and informal social control, thus giving ground for their escalation. These behaviors, taking different form and level of representiality, disturb school order. The article refers to the data relating to the situation in American schools in the last decade of the 20th century and the two decades of the 21st century, and to the results of international surveys, which indicate a drop in the age of young people engaging in risky behaviour. Attention was also paid to changes in teenagers’ everyday activities, criminalization and the medicalisation of school discipline.

The NOMAD project was a survey to examine the noise-related content of instructions supplied with machinery offered for purchase in Europe. The project collected more than 1 500 instructions from machines covering 40 broad machine-families and from 800 different manufacturing companies. These instructions were analyzed to determine compliance with the requirements of the Machinery Directive, and assess the quality of information. The general state of compliance of machinery instructions with the noise-related requirements of the Machinery Directive was found to be very poor: 80% of instructions did not meet legal requirements. Some required numerical values relating to noise emissions were often missing. Where values were given, they were often not traceable to machine operating conditions or measurement methods, and not credible either against stated conditions/methods or as warnings of likely risk in real use. As a consequence, it is considered highly likely that, in making a machinery procurement decision, employers are prevented from taking noise emissions into account, and understanding what is necessary to manage the risks from noise relating to equipment that is procured. Recommendations are made for actions aimed at bringing about a global improvement to the current situation. Targeted actions are now proposed by “ADCO Machinery Group” aimed at raising awareness of the legal requirements, responsibilities and actions required among the various groups who have parts to play in the system – machine manufacturers, machine users, occupational safety and health professionals, and standards-makers. Recommendations are also made aimed at providing, or improving, tools and resources for all these actors.

Perceptions of Senior Woman Administrators (SWAs) were sought regarding the equal provision of 13 Title IX compliance areas in women's athletic programs as compared to men's. A five point agree/disagree Likert-scale survey was electronically mailed to all SWAs at National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) membership institutions throughout the United States. Of the 841 surveys mailed, 406 were returned for a 48.3% return rate. The SWAs disagreed or strongly disagreed at the highest rates that the following five Title IX compliance areas were being provided for equally in the women's programs when compared to the men's: publicity (31.0%), locker room facilities (27.1%), coaching (20.0%), recruitment of student-athletes (15.4%), and equipment and supplies (14.7%). Significant differences between Likert-scale items of agreement/disagreement were found among the following SWA demographics: marital status, NCAA Division, years of experience, and reporting structure. The SWAs agreed or strongly agreed that the 13 Title IX compliance areas were being provided for equally in the women's programs when compared to the men's at the following rates: housing & dining facilities (84.4%), medical & training facilities (84.3%), scheduling of games (81.1%), travel & per diem allowances (80.5%), practice facilities (78.7%), competitive facilities (78.4%), equipment and supplies (77.7%), support services (76.0%), tutoring (74.3%), recruitment of student-athletes (73.2%), coaching (70.3%), locker room facilities (63.2%), and publicity (55.3%).

The eViP Programme has conducted a survey on the current use of virtual patients across the EU and the wider global community. A total of 216 respondents have given feedback on the current and potential future use of virtual patients, including different educational settings and scenarios within which virtual patients have been used. Data has been gathered on different business models for access to a repository of virtual patients. The broad demographic profile of respondents has been gathered to help analyse these data in context. This report will be of use to those considering a virtual patient approach in their curricula, as well as providing a snap-shot of the current good practice in this area. It is planned to release an updated version of this survey in 2010 towards the end of the eViP Programme so that changes in opinion and implementation of a VP approach can be reviewed.

Results from a series of five surveys among five groups of international climate scientists about their evaluation of elements of climate models and of climate change are presented. The first survey was done in 1996, the latest in 2015/16. Thus, our snapshots of the opinions of climate scientists cover 20 years. The results describe a strong increase in agreement concerning issues of manifestation of climate change, i.e., that the warming is real and not influenced by changing measuring and reporting practices, and concerning attribution of this ongoing climate change to ongoing anthropogenic causes. On the other hand, the evaluation of the climate models has changed little in the past 20 years. There are still significant reservations with the models ability to incorporate clouds and to describe rainfall. Obviously the growing conviction of ongoing man-made climate change is based on a variety of explanations, with modelling not being the predominant line of evidence. We suggest that it may be the repeated assessments by the IPCC, based on paleoclimatic evidence and stringent statistical analysis of the instrumental record which have led to the growing consensus of the warming and its causation. We stress that the presented results concern the opinion of climate scientists with a rather broad background. Our results do not assess if the opinions of the surveyed scientists are “valid” or “right”, but they recognize the character of science being a social process.

The purpose of this article is to recognize the assessment of Cracow from the perspective of the residents and tourists a year after a religious event, the 2016 World Youth Day (2016WYD). Bearing in mind that the image of a city is created by an individual and their socio-demographic features, ones that differentiate the assessment of the city were identified and their direction and strength were highlighted. It was also checked whether the assessment of the city declared by tourists (the experimental group) was different from the assessment of the residents (the control group). Analogically, significant differences were recognized between the tourists and residents who took part in 2016WYD; tourists who participated and did not participate in 2016WYD, and also the residents who participated and did not participate in 2016WYD. Theoretical considerations relating to the city, its recipients and mega-events were conducted on the basis of subject literature review. In the statistical part non-parametric tests and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient were used in order to achieve the assumed objectives. The results allowed us to observe how the improvement of the city image a year after the mega-event is more often declared by the inhabitants than by tourists and out of socio-demographic features of an individual, gender (both in the case of inhabitants and tourists) determines the assessment of the city image to the greatest extent.

Celem artykułu jest rozpoznanie oceny wizerunku miasta Krakowa z perspektywy jego mieszkańców i turystów rok po wielkim wydarzeniu religijnym, jakim były Światowe Dni Młodzieży (ŚDM). Mając na względzie, że obraz miasta kształtowany jest przez jednostkę i jej cechy społeczno-demograficzne, wyodrębniono te cechy, które różnicują ocenę wizerunku miasta, uwypuklając ich kierunek i siłę. Zbadano również czy ocena wizerunku miasta deklarowana przez turystów (grupa eksperymentalna) różniła się od tej deklarowanej przez mieszkańców (grupa kontrolna). Podobnie, istotne różnice rozpoznano między turystami i mieszkańcami uczestnikami ŚDM; turystami uczestniczącymi i nieuczestniczącymi w ŚDM, a także mieszkańcami uczestniczącymi i nieuczestniczącymi w ŚDM. Rozważania teoretyczne odnośnie do miasta, jego adresatów, wielkich wydarzeń oraz wizerunku przeprowadzono na podstawie kwerendy literatury przedmiotu. W części empirycznej wykorzystano testy nieparametryczne oraz współczynniki korelacji dla realizacji założonych celów. Uzyskane wyniki pozwoliły zaobserwować m.in., że poprawę wizerunku miasta rok po wielkim wydarzeniu częściej deklarują mieszkańcy, niż turyści, a spośród cech demograficzno-społecznych jednostki płeć (zarówno u mieszkańców, jak i turystów) w największym stopniu determinuje ocenę wizerunku miasta.

The importance of kitchen furniture ergonomics for people with disabilities. The goal of this paper is to evaluate the kitchen equipment for people with disabilities from the point of view of furniture ergonomics and their adaptation to the needs of this social group. Research has shown that the majority of respondents are not satisfied with the equipment of their kitchen and, having such an opportunity, would make changes to it. At the same time, the responses showed little knowledge of people with disabilities about the available design solutions for furniture available on the market.

The description of the approach for the survey of fluid saturation levels and underground reservoirs developed by the authors (Schmidt Institute of Physics of the Earth RAS) and based on application of passive seismic methods is presented. The main idea of the developing approach is the following: the fluid saturation levels or the underground reservoirs filled uр with oil, gas or water, being the geological heterogeneities, have the effect of anomalies of microseismic wave field on the surface of the Earth. Thus, the approach is based оn allocation of anomalies in а spectrum of the dеер microseismic wave field around еxресtеd hydrocarbon deposits, underground reservoirs etc. Using natural seismicity of the Earth and so the absence of necessity to use artificial sources of seismic signals (vibrators, guns) is the essential advantage of this approach.

NCAA Division III head certified athletic trainers (ATCs) (n=185) were surveyed to determine knowledge areas needed by ATCs to be successful as Division III ATCs. A Likert-like scale survey consisted of 12 athletic training related knowledge areas and included the following five point scale: essential, very important, important, not very important, and irrelevant. Findings indicated that it is important that Division III ATCs have all 12 knowledge areas to be successful. Although injury-related knowledge areas were considered essential, all of the knowledge areas were at least considered important to the success of ATCs, and none were considered irrelevant. Those involved in athletic training curricular issues should place or continue to place the most emphasis on areas related to injuries.

Many surveying companies and maritime institutions are now using multibeam systems for their operations, either offshore or in coastal and inland waters. Since the time the first multibeam echosounder appeared (late 1970s) the technology has advanced enormously. Modern systems now boast far greater angular coverage (typically 120º–150º) and form hundreds of beams. Dual-head multibeam systems can potentially cover the entire sector (180º) underneath the ship. However surveyors must be aware that the outer beams of these acoustic systems return the most errors causing that the effective swath width is shorter than what the manufacturers declare. The paper presents the methods of estimating of effective (usable) swath width of dual-head multibeam echosounder EM 3002D. Results of the hydrographic survey performed by the polish navy survey ship ORP ‘Arctowski’ have been showed in the article.

Wiele biur hydrograficznych, firm komercyjnych zajmujących się pomiarami oraz instytu-cji i ośrodków szkoleniowych w swoich badaniach morskich i śródlądowych wykorzystuje akustyczne systemy wielowiązkowe. Od czasu pojawienia się pierwszej echosondy wielo-wiązkowej (lata 70. XX w.) technologia prac pomiarowych rozwinęła się na niespotykaną skalę. Nowoczesne systemy oferują dziś znacznie większe robocze kąty pracy przetwor-ników (zazwyczaj 120º–150º) i tworzą setki wiązek. Systemy dwugłowicowe mogą potencjalnie pracować w 180º kącie roboczym pod stępką jednostki. Hydrografowie muszą mieć jednak świadomość, że skrajne wiązki tych systemów generują największe błędy, powodując, że efektywna szerokość pasa pomiarowego danej sondy jest w istocie krótsza niż ta, jaką deklarują światowi producenci. W artykule przedstawiono metodę szacowania efektywnej (użytkowej) szerokości pasa pomiarowego dwuprzetwornikowej sondy EM 3002D. Zaprezentowano wyniki badań przeprowadzonych z pokładu okrętu hydrograficznego ORP ‘Arctowski’ na akwenie Bałtyku południowo-wschodniego.
