Object-Relational Mapping A persistence service is used for enterprise applications (e.g. written in Java) to handle persistent object data for long-term data management. In this exercise, we will first look at how general object-relational mapping is handled in this scenario and what key aspects of mapping are mainly focused. 1. Before we start to examine different aspects covered in object-re...

One of the major sources of uncertainty associated with geographical data in GIS arises when they are the outcome of a sampling process. It is well known that when sampling from a spatially autocorrelated homogeneous surface, stratification reduces the error variance of the estimator of the population mean. In this study, we evaluate the efficiency of different spatial sampling strategies when ...

Determination of the heterogeneous distribution of metals in alloy/battery/catalyst and biological materials is critical to fully characterize and/or evaluate the functionality of the materials. Using synchrotron-based transmission x-ray microscopy (TXM), it is now feasible to perform nanoscale-resolution imaging over a wide X-ray energy range covering the absorption edges of many elements; com...

OBJECTIVE This study considers the long-term health consequences of child maltreatment. Distinct from previous research, we examine the effects of maltreatment in the context of more general parental evaluations. METHOD Analyses used retrospective and current data from the Midlife Development in the United States (MIDUS) study. RESULTS A considerable proportion of middle- and older-age adul...

the heterogeneous photo-fenton degradation of crystal violet under visible light has been investigated usingcopper modified iron oxide. the photocatalyst has been prepared by coprecipitation method. the rate ofphotocatalyic degradation of dye was monitored spectrophotometrically. it has been observed thatphotocatalytic degradation follows pseudo first order kinetics. the effect of various param...

the reaction kinetics of the isomerization 3,4-dichlorobutene-1 to 1,4-dichlorobutene-2 was investigated by using gas-liquid chromatography method in the presence of fe2o3/mgo as solid catalyst in the temperature range 25-55°c. fe2o3/mgo has been prepared by the support saturation method, tested in the isomerization of 3, 4-dichlorobutene-1 into 1, 4-dichlorobutene-2. this catalyst shows a high...

a simple highly versatile and efficient sonochemical synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted and 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is achieved by condensation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compound, aldehyde, ammonium acetate and primary amine using antimony trichloride immobilized on silica gel (sio2-osbcl2) as a catalyst in ethanol at moderate temperature. operational simplicity, practicability and applicabi...

the nanoparticles of ti-si mixed oxides (ntso) with rutile structure were prepared by sol-gel method in a mixture of alcohol and water as solvent. the solid product was characterized by xrd, ftir, sem, tem, uv, tga and laser raman spectroscopy. the catalytic activity of ntso (5-10 nm) was investigated in the epoxidation of cis stilbene, trans stilbene, and norbornene by using oxidants such as t...
