چکیده
We study properties of five different social systems: (i) internet society of friends consisting of over 10 people, (ii) social network consisting of 3 × 10 individuals, who interact in a large virtual world of Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPGs), (iii) over 10 users of music community website, (iv) over 5 × 10 users of gamers community server and (v) over 0.25 × 10 users of books admirer website. Individuals included in large social network form an Internet community and organize themselves in groups of different sizes. The destiny of those systems, as well as the method of creating of new connections, are different, however we found that the properties of these networks are very similar. We have found that the network components size distribution follow the power-law scaling form. In all five systems we have found interesting scaling laws concerning human dynamics. Our research has shown how long people are interested in a single task, how much time they devote to it and how fast they are making friends. It is surprising that the time evolution of an individual connectivity is very similar in

A Novel Molecular Descriptor Derived from Weighted Line Graph
The Bertz indices, derived by counting the number of connecting edges of line graphs of a molecule were used in deriving the QSPR models for the physicochemical properties of alkanes. The inability of these indices to identify the hetero centre in a chemical compound restricted their applications to hydrocarbons only. In the present work, a novel molecular descriptor has been derived from the w...

Structural steel sections are mainly used in beams and columns of building frames. Iran National Steel IndustrialGroup is among the oldest and largest producers of beams in Iran. It has two beam production lines, namely Line630 and Line 650. In this study, the mechanical properties of manufactured beams in these production lines werecompared. Based on the t-test results, the e...
متن کاملThe Governance of Health Systems; Comment on “A Network Based Theory of Health Systems and Cycles of Well-Being”
Health systems research aims to understand the governance of health systems (i.e. how health systems function and perform and how their actors interact with each other). This can be achieved by applying innovative methodologies and concepts that are going to capture the complexity and dynamics of health systems when they are affected by shocks. The capacity of health systems to adapt to shocks ...
متن کاملFabrication and characterization of liposomal nanoparticles containing hydroalcoholic extract of Artemisia absintium and its toxicity on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line
Introdution:The use of chemotherapy drugs has side effects and the use of herbal compounds in the treatment of cancer faces challenges. Nanoparticles, especially liposomes, with appropriate properties in drug delivery, such as slow drug release, low toxicity at the target cell site, can solve some of these problems. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to construct a liposomal system con...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Long-term Care Programs; Comment on “Financing Long-term Care: Lessons From Japan”
The need for long-term care (LTC) represents a “new social risk,” one that overlaps with and complements systems of care that pre-date such programs, complicating LTC program design. This commentary expands on Ikegami’s discussion of how these structural factors must be accommodated, as well as historical and cultural factors that influence public expectations of such a...
متن کاملOn Line Electric Power Systems State Estimation Using Kalman Filtering (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper principles of extended Kalman filtering theory is developed and applied to simulated on-line electric power systems state estimation in order to trace the operating condition changes through the redundant and noisy measurements. Test results on IEEE 14 - bus test system are included. Three case systems are tried; through the comparing of their results, it is concluded that the pro...
