Ws 3(4) 177-184

The contents of FC, somatic coliphages and F-specific bacteriophages were measured in the stabilization pond and stabilization reservoir system of the City of Arad (Israel) in order to determine the efficiency of the treatment process regarding the microorganisms removal. Monitoring was conducted close to one year. Physical and chemical parameters (temperature, pH, BOD5, COD, SS) were also anal...

Towards modelling WS-BPEL using ws-calculus

We tackle the problem of providing rigorous formal foundations to current software engineering technologies for web services, and especially to WS-BPEL, one of the most used XML-based standard languages for web services. We focus on a subset of WS-BPEL sufficiently expressive to model the interactions among web service instances in a network context. We present this language as a process calcul...

Attenuation of Bladder Overactivity in Kit (ws /ws) Mutant Rats

Hypothesis / aims of study The interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are primary pacemaker cells responsible for generating smooth muscle activity in the gastrointestinal tract. ICCs express the proto-oncogene c-kit, 3 and signaling via the receptor kinase gene product, KIT, is essential for the development of phenotype and rhythmicity. ICC-like cells form close connections with suburothelial nerve...

Criteria weighting by using the 5 Ws & H technique

Background: This paper introduces the use of the 5Ws & H technique, which is the creative problem solving technique based on who, what, when, where, why and how questions, for the establishing of the criteria weights in multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM). Objectives: The main goal of this paper is to adapt and complete the steps of the 5Ws & H technique, usually used in the problem definitio...
