Towards Measuring the Project Management Process During Large Scale Software System Implementation Phase

Project management is an important factor to accomplish the decision to implement large-scale software systems (LSS) in a successful manner. The effective project management comes into play to plan, coordinate and control such a complex project. Project management factor has been argued as one of the important Critical Success Factor (CSF), which need to be measured and monitored carefully duri...

HURST EXPONENTS FOR NON-PRECISE DATA

We provide a framework for the study of statistical quantitiesrelated to the Hurst phenomenon when the data are non-precise with boundedsupport.

Statistical analysis and characteristics of hospital medical waste under novel Coronavirus outbreak

One of thesources of infection as a result of coronavirus disease treatment is the medical waste generated during the health care activities. Since the registration of the first infected case of coronavirus in Jordan the daily number of patients fluctuated from as low as zero to as high as 40 with a recovery ratio and case fatality risk of 39% and 1.7%, respectively. The main objective of the p...

Mammalian interspecies substitution of immune modulatory alleles by genome editing

We describe a fundamentally novel feat of animal genetic engineering: the precise and efficient substitution of an agronomic haplotype into a domesticated species. Zinc finger nuclease in-embryo editing of the RELA locus generated live born domestic pigs with the warthog RELA orthologue, associated with resilience to African Swine Fever. The ability to efficiently achieve interspecies allele in...
