Instead, this paper is about the software that drives the user interface. The figure below shows the overall landscape of the pattern language. It starts with the most fundamental pattern, the User Interface Layer. Two patterns describe the architecture of this layer: Separate Transformation explains how to deal with complex interactions while Widget Model helps to structure presentation. Thoug...

We study the role of recombination, in the form of bacterial transformation, in speeding up Darwinian evolution. This is done by adding a new process to a previously studied Markov model of evolution on a smooth fitness landscape; this new process allows alleles to be exchanged with those in the surrounding medium. Our results, both numerical and analytic, indicate that, for a wide range of int...

A Learning Revolution is sweeping across the higher education landscape... Placing learning first in every policy, program, and practice is the rallying cry, as institutions strive to remove the time-bound, place-bound, role-bound, and bureaucracy-bound models of education that shackle innovation and transformation. What this means in practical terms is that every action in a college should be ...

this study aims to investigate the changes in turkey's security discourse in process of turkey's accession to european :union:. it seems that europeanization of turkey is one of the most important factors in the change of its security discourse. turkey's political and security language has been changed and, in this country, we are witnessing a new political and social contract th...

Testing model-to-model (M2M) transformations is becoming a prominent topic in the current Model-driven Engineering landscape. Current approaches for transformation testing, however, assume having explicit model representations for the input domain and for the output domain of the transformation. This excludes other important transformation kinds, such as model-to-text (M2T) and text-to-model (T...

Popcorn fractals are instances of Integrated Fractal Systems involving trigonometric functions. In this paper, we study the effect of spherical, swirl and pseudo-horseshoe functions on popcorn fractals to produce talismanic and tantric designs. General Terms Fractal, Algorithm, Turbo C++, Program.

A central question in evolutionary biology is how gene flow and natural selection shape geographic patterns of genotypic and phenotypic variation. My overall research program has pursued this question in tree populations through complementary lines of inquiry. First, through studies of contemporary pollen and seed movement, I have studied how limited gene movement creates fine-scale genetic str...

landscape fragmentation has threatened the landscape continuity of ray which was maintainedfrom prehistoric times until recent decades. from 19th century that tehran sprawl growth affected ray’slandscape as a satellite city of tehran, ray experienced rapid landscape fragmentation and underwent manychanges. in order to cope with the threat, the process of changes from landscape fragmentation sho...
