with recent developments in communication technologies, it is possible to access information any time and in any place; however, mobile environments bring forward certain requirements and exclusive challenges including low connection speeds and bandwidth limitations. thus, we need to consider mobile limitations when using web services. providing services and limited resource allocation to users...

The teledensity in India is estimated at 74.50 per cent (January, 2014) with an increase in subscriber base each day. No other revolution in the mankind has transformed the communication scenario to the extent as done by the mobile technologies. India has the fastest growing telecom network in the world with its high population and development potential base. Education is at a critical juncture...

In this article, we explore various parallel and distributed computing topics from a usercentric software engineering perspective. Specifically, in the context of mobile application development, we study the basic building blocks of interactive applications in the form of events, timers, and asynchronous activities, along with related software modeling, architecture, and design topics. Relevant...

In a recent report in Trends in Genetics, Gao and Voytas [1] described a new family of integrase genes that were identified in diverse eukaryotic species, including slime mold, Caenorhabditis elegans, C. briggsae, zebrafish, Takifugu rubripes, Xiphophorus maculates, cow, dog and humans. These genes potentially encode proteins containing w400 amino acids with homology to retroviral integrases an...

Mobile phones are two-way radios that emit electromagnetic radiation in microwave range. As the number of mobile phone users has reached 6 billion, the bioeffects of exposure to mobile phone radiation and mobile phone electromagnetic interference with electronic equipment have received more attention, globally. As self-monitoring of blood glucose can be a beneficial part of diabetes control, ho...
