Ontologies play a key role in realizing the full power of etechnology. Ontologies allow for machine-understandable semantics of data, and facilitate the search, exchange, and integration of knowledge for B2B (business-to-business) and B2C (business-to-consumer) e-commerce. Ontology is defined as “the specification of shared knowledge” (Waterson & Preece, 1999). By using semantic data, the usabi...

Brain mapping in Neurosurgical oncology

After the introduction of MRI, new modalities facilitated the procedure of surgical planning to achieve the microsurgical goal and improve prognosis and quality of life in patients. Despite the variable applications of preoperative and intraoperative mapping and monitoring systems, several limitations and concerns are reported for every modality as well. In this issue of the IrJNS, we are delig...

Bps and Non{bps Domain Walls in Supersymmetric Qcd

We study the spectrum of the domain walls interpolating between diierent chirally asymmetric vacua in supersymmetric QCD with the SU(N) gauge group and including N ? 1 pairs of chiral matter multi-plets in fundamental and anti-fundamental representations. There are always \real walls" interpolating between the chirally symmetric and a chirally asymmetric vacua which are BPS saturated. For small...

Using games in Oncology Teaching

Introduction:Educational methods can be classified into two groups: active methods and passive ones. Applying games is an active approach in teaching. The present study aimed at investigating the effect of games on teaching oncology. Methods: Twenty three medical students participated in the study. They took two class sessions of oncology. In the first session the basic principles and concepts...
