TINA aims to provide an architecture based on distributed computing technologies that will enable telecommunications networks to support the flexible introduction and control of new advanced services. The provided services and the supporting network and computing infrastructure will be managed in an integrated fashion. Network management aspects in TINA are addressed by its Network Resource Arc...

This paper gives an overview of the ArchWare European Project1. The broad scope of ArchWare is to respond to the ever-present demand for software systems that are capable of accommodating change over their lifetime, and therefore are evolvable. In order to achieve this goal, ArchWare develops an integrated set of architecture-centric languages and tools for the modeldriven engineering of evolva...

the subject of geometry and proportions has been regarded as an issue which has a close relationship with architecture. since the entire universe, living beings and the human geometry can be seen clearly, that’s why our unconscious essence has accustomed to these proportions whereby reflection of this mentality can be seen in the architect’s hands and thought in the architecture. it can witness...

ego identity defined as a fundamental element of a person and as self-continuum, mental andinward image that an individual has about him or herself. this subject investigated in contemporary world, amply.for actualizing and testing this concept, four bases including achievement, moratorium, foreclosure and diffusionintroduced and based on this framework, and the effect of different factors on e...

The degree of concordance between populations in the genetic architecture of a given trait is an important issue in medical and evolutionary genetics. Here, we address this problem, using a replicated pooled genome-wide association study approach (Pool-GWAS) to compare the genetic basis of variation in abdominal pigmentation in female European and South African Drosophila melanogaster. We find ...

Space surveillance activities in Europe currently strongly depend on external sources. A limited number of European radar and optical facilities for space surveillance exist, but there is no operational European space surveillance system. Currently, ESA-funded feasibility studies awarded to ONERA are carried out to design a European Space Surveillance System. The system is proposed to consist o...

The Decomate project enables mutual access to heterogeneous, distributed, and pooled digital resources of consortium members. Using a mediator architecture with a Broker and several back-end servers, a scalable and flexible system has been developed that is going in production in major European universities. Ongoing work focuses on access improvements using graphical browsing and thesaurus inte...

the term globalization undoubtedly has affected all parts of humanity life in current century. globalization as a comprehensive phenomenon has influenced economical, political, social and cultural aspects of our societies. contemporary architecture as a multidimensional category is depended on various factors and needs to be pursued in different fields, in order to reach to a perfect comprehend...
