We use the term ubiquitous supercomputing to refer to systems that integrate low-and mid-range computing systems, advanced networks, and remote high-end computers with the goal of enhancing the computational power accessible from local environments. Such systems promise to enable new applications in areas as diverse as smart instruments and collabora-tive environments. However, they also demand...

Within the realm of nano-, bio-, info- and cogno- (or NBIC) technosciences, the 'power to change the world' is often invoked. One could dismiss such formulations as 'purely rhetorical', interpret them as rhetorical and self-fulfilling or view them as an adequate depiction of one of the fundamental characteristics of technoscience. In the latter case, a very specific nexus between science and te...

One of the most important processes in today's industrial world, the Nexus Interaction, is known as Water, Soil and Wastewater (WSW). The purpose of this research is to provide a network model that can be used to determine the state of the hazards caused by Irrigation of land with untreated municipal wastewater. Methods of this study include the stages: knowledge of the study area, quantitative...

The role of networks has been growing attention in recent decades explaining political behaviour. Political nexus aspects also get on the agenda studying various resources status attainment. Despite general realization these relevant network implications, some conceptual and measurement issues are still debatable. In this paper, we introduce a new tool for measuring acquaintanceship networks, P...
