Abstract It is a well-known fact that Sanskrit had relatively shorter and less prolific lifespan in the epigraphy of Indonesia, particularly Javanese epigraphic record, than other Southeast Asian regions. All more precious, therefore, are rare opportunities to add inscription historical record Java learn how language was deployed on island represent events recorded for posterity. In this articl...

Abstract English The Roman town of Mustis ( municipium Iulium Aurelium Mustitanum ) is near present-day Mest Henshir (Tunisia). Its epigraphic corpus has around 200 inscriptions mainly published at the end 19th century and beginning 20th century, when French archaeological campaigns took place. However, a group Latin discovered during 1960s remained unpublished. In reorganisation archives Insti...

• Linguistic evidence does not support an evolution of numbers from concrete to abstract. There is no that early were conceived as fused with counted objects. Signs for powers a specific base, abstraction, define the emergence numerical notations. Invented number signs lower tend be schematic and tied counting practices. Numeracy writing constitute different phenomena, whose paths formation oft...

The article reports the interdisciplinary project of the virtualization of the Great Inscription of Gortyna (Crete) for 3D documentation, structural studies and physical replica purposes. The digitization of the longest epigraphic text of the Greek civilization (6 m long and 1.75 m high, with ca 2-3 mm depth engraved letters) and its surrounding heritage area (ca 30 x 30 m), required a long pla...

BACKGROUND While a variety of instruments have been developed to assess knowledge and skills in evidence based medicine (EBM), few assess all aspects of EBM - including knowledge, skills attitudes and behaviour - or have been psychometrically evaluated. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an instrument that evaluates medical trainees' competency in EBM across knowledge, skills and...

BACKGROUND Few studies have been performed to inform how best to teach evidence-based medicine (EBM) to medical trainees. Current evidence can only conclude that any form of teaching increases EBM competency, but cannot distinguish which form of teaching is most effective at increasing student competency in EBM. This study compared the effectiveness of a blended learning (BL) versus didactic le...

In an effort to improve patient care, there has been a growing trend across the nation and the world to embed the principles of evidence-based dentistry into mainstream care delivery by private practicing dentists. Evidence-based dentistry is an essential tool that is used to improve the quality of care and to reduce the gap between what we know, what is possible, and what we do. An evidence-ba...

INTRODUCTION Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) has established itself as a strong predictor of future medical practice by medical students. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of EBM in pre-clinical years and reflect on self-assessment skill of 4th semester medical students regarding the understanding of EBM and its various determinants. METHODS All of the 4th semester (M...

Though advances in medical science have created improved therapies, often these are not widely provided throughout the health-care system. Also, there is growing recognition of the lack of safety in health-care delivery. The development of evidence-based, best practice, national guidelines has been encouraged to reduce unnecessary variation in care and for improving quality. Adoption of guideli...

NIST’s ECC standards create (1) unnecessary losses of simplicity, security, and speed in ECC implementations and (2) unnecessary tensions between simplicity, security, and speed in ECC implementations.
