social cohesion represents the interaction and linkage of the society, is a most important reason of different institutional performance to achieve economic development. the purpose of this paper is to estimate social cohesion and the relation of social cohesion with economic development for 85 selected developed and developing countries in 2010. in this research the social cohesion index have ...

Cohesion is considered as one of the most important software quality attributes. Cohesion refers to the degree of relatedness between members of a software component. Cohesion is one of the few internal software attributes that has been both theoretically and empirically shown to have large impact on external software quality characteristics like maintainability, modularity, reusability, testab...

What is cohesion fatigue? Cohesion fatigue is the asynchronous separation of chromatids in cells that are arrested or delayed at metaphase. In normal anaphase, synchronous chromatid separation is followed by cytokinesis and mitotic exit. In contrast, after cohesion fatigue, cells usually remain locked in mitosis for some time after chromatids separate. Cohesion fatigue requires the mechanical f...

Cohesion was rst introduced as a software attribute that could be used to predict properties of implementations that would be created from a given design. Unfortunately, cohesion, as originally de ned, could not be objectively assessed, while more recently developed objective cohesion measures depend on code-level information. We show that association-based and slice-based approaches can be use...

Class cohesion is considered as one of most important object-oriented software attributes. Cohesion refers to the degree of relatedness between members in a class. High cohesion is a desirable property of classes. Several metrics have been proposed in literature in order to measure class cohesion in object-oriented systems. They capture class cohesion in terms of connections between members wit...

Telomeres use distinct mechanisms (not used by arms or centromeres) to mediate cohesion between sister chromatids. However, the motivation for a specialized mechanism at telomeres is not well understood. Here we show, using fluorescence in situ hybridization and live-cell imaging, that persistent sister chromatid cohesion at telomeres triggers a prolonged anaphase in normal human cells and canc...

To gain insights on long-term social-ecological resilience, we examined adaptive responses of small-scale societies to dryland-related hazards in different regions and chronological periods, spanning from the mid-Holocene to the present. Based on evidence from Africa (Sahara and Sahel), Asia (south margin of the Thar desert), and Europe (South Spain), we discuss key traits and coping practices ...

We explored whether voluntary survey completion by team members (in aggregate) is predictable from team members' collective evaluations of team-emergent states. In doing so, we reanalyze less-than-complete survey data on 110 teams from a published field study, using so-called traditional and modern missing data techniques to probe the sensitivity of these team-level relationships to data missin...

Collective cell migration plays a substantial role in maintaining the cohesion of epithelial cell layers and in wound healing. A number of mathematical models of this process have been developed, all of which reduce to essentially a reaction-diffusion equation with diffusion and proliferation terms that depend on material assumptions about the cell layer. In this paper we extend a one-dimension...
