In February of 2013, the InCommon Technical Advisory Committee was charged with developing "...a document that presents the landscape of identity-related projects of particular relevance to the Research and Education (R&E) community, including information about their state, the relationships among them, and gaps among those relationships and between the capabilities they provide and what is nee...

In the recent century,Tehran has been confronted with urban sprawl and rapid population growth that have caused urban landscape transformation, whichis different in various parts of Tehran based on specific economic, cultural and social situations. What is important in this essay is the human perception of their landscape in this process of transformation; therefore, the purpose is analyzing la...

Due to the spatial scale at which most empirical landscape studies are performed, replica-tion is rarely feasible, and experimenters may require artiicial replication through the use of landscape models that are synthetically generated. In our view, a landscape is a heterogeneous region on the surface of the earth, and a landscape model is a simpliied representation (e.g. as a digital map) of a...

in today’s world the concept of “city” without effective landscape is out of imagination. being focal points for human life and activities, cities have to consider the structure and functions which are influenced by natural systems. in this regard, landscapes are inevitable parts of cities with an essential metabolic role. unlike most countries which don’t have to deal with water shortage as a ...

Driven by the growing demand of personalization of medical procedures, data-based, computer-aided cancer research in human patients is advancing at an accelerating pace, providing a broadening landscape of opportunity for Machine Learning methods. This landscape can be observed from the wide-reaching view of population studies down to the genotype detail. In this brief paper, we provide a sweep...

Despite the close affinity between collective memory and urban structures as the relationship between what is hidden and what is visible; rapid changes throughout the city have caused a disconnection between integrated memories and landscape cohesion. As a context for memories, the historical urban landscape proves to be valuable. The present research seeks to identify elements and signs in urb...

Protein folding should be complex. Proteins organize themselves into specific three-dimensional structures, through a myriad of conformational changes. The classical view of protein folding describes this process as a nearly sequential series of discrete intermediates. In contrast, the energy landscape theory of folding considers folding as the progressive organization of an ensemble of partial...

We investigate an integrated approach to scientometric studies with emphasis to the use of information visualization and animation techniques. This study draws upon citation and co-citation patterns derived from articles published in the journal Scientometrics (19812001). The modeling and visualization takes an evolutionary and historical perspective. The design of the visualization model adapt...

Spatial heterogeneity is a source of complexity in environmental models, but can also be an important part of landscape dynamics and our understanding of environmental processes. The majority of our knowledge of environmental processes to date has been acquired from relatively small plot-based experiments. Recently there has been a growing recognition that in order to apply this knowledge to re...
