Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...

As a broader array of communication tools is developed, designers of learning environments need a better understanding of what kinds of communication each medium is best suited for. Each of the new media have different affordances and constraints. One of our principles for the design of learning environments is “Render unto each medium what it does best.” This paper is an attempt to state some ...

The new class of meter-resolution spaceborne SAR systems (TerraSAR-X and COSMO-Skymed) offers a tremendous improvement in interferometric monitoring of urban areas and man-made infrastructure. The high resolution fits well to the inherent scale of buildings (floor height, distance of windows, etc.). In particular, Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) benefits substantially from this new da...

Modern network centric information systems implement highly distributed architectures that usually include multiple application servers. Application design is mainly based on the fundamental object-oriented principles and the adopted architecture matches the logical decomposition of applications (into several tiers like presentation, logic and data) to their software and hardware structuring. T...

Today, with the advancement of technology, the use of tools for extracting information from video are much wider in terms of both visual power and the processing power. High-speed car, perfect detection accuracy, business diversity in the fields of medical, home appliances, smart cars, humanoid robots, military systems and the commercialization makes these systems cost effective. Among the most...

Abstract The new challenges related to the monitoring of Earth’s shape and motion have led global geodetic observing system set more stringent requirements on precision stability terrestrial reference frame (TRF). achievement this ambitious goal depends improvement space geodesy techniques, satellite laser ranging (SLR) in particular, being main instrument for TRF realization. In work, we study...
