Developmental psychopathology (DP), broadly defined as the scientific discipline that has as its primary goal the integration of developmental science and psychopathology into a coherent approach to explanatory models for psychopathological development, has become the dominant approach in the past decade for understanding the origins of mental disorders among children and adolescents. Hence, it...

Defects in halide perovskites play an essential role determining the efficiency and stability of optoelectronic devices based on these materials. We present a systematic study intrinsic point defects six primary metal perovskites, ${\mathrm{MAPbI}}_{3}, {\mathrm{MAPbBr}}_{3}, {\mathrm{MAPbCl}}_{3}, {\mathrm{FAPbI}}_{3}, {\mathrm{CsPbI}}_{3}$, ${\mathrm{MASnI}}_{3}$ (where MA denotes methylammon...

In this paper we explain an approach on how to develop domain specific applications using model driven development. Model Driven Development in its core, uses the MDA (Model Driven Architecture) principles defined by OMG (Object Management Group) and its primary artifact for development is model. MDA principles dictate that the domain specific model be built on specifications and standards [1]....
