the present paper is an attempt to study a contemporary author, critic and artist from kuwait in the hope that it may lead to more thorough researches in the analysis of comparative studies of iran and countries around persian gulf-whose cultural as well as economic interactions has a long historical background- eventually culminating in praiseworthy works.this paper is a literary review of som...

Film dokumenter potret Rhythm of Saman ini bercerita tentang Joel Tampeng yang mencoba kembali pada kebudayaan asalnya, yaitu Saman, setelah lama merantau di Yogyakarta sebagai seorang musisi rock. Hal bermula dari keprihatinannya terhadap menjadi warisan budaya tak benda memerlukan perlindungan mendesak (UNESCO). Warisan bisa disebut dengan intangible cultural heritage, bersifat dapat dipegang...

Many nervous systems contain rhythmically active subnetworks that interact despite oscillating at widely different frequencies. The stomatogastric nervous system of the crab Cancer borealis produces a rapid pyloric rhythm and a considerably slower gastric mill rhythm. We construct and analyze a conductance-based compartmental model to explore the activation of the gastric mill rhythm by the mod...

We discuss the evolution of Praxis, a model-driven process framework, building on feedback from educational and professional applications, along the past fifteen years. We follow the evolution from Praxis first version to the current one, discussing what was introduced in each. For past and current versions, we classify model improvements, discussing their nature and rationale, derived from rec...

We present a seamless integration of a robotics simulator and hardware implementation, in which the same code can be executed unchanged in simulation or on a physical robot. We discuss the design challenges and our resulting architecture, which seamlessly integrates V-REP, a widely used robotics simulator, with iRobot Create 2 robots. Our approach is easy to set up, simple to understand, yet po...

The CRUD matrix is an excellent technique to model processes and data and how they interact with respect to creation, reading, updating, and deleting of the data. In this paper, we extend the CRUD matrix to a CRUD Security Cube where we propose incorporating a third dimension on the matrix to include individuals or groups and the rights and security privileges granted to each. This additional d...

This research proposes an architecture for reusable components aimed at bridging the object-oriented and the relational paradigms. The component, referred to here as Business Tier Component, provides a single wide range static interface able to manage a set of Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) expressions, deployed at runtime and of any complexity, on behalf of application tiers. The only ...

A relay channel consists of an input x,, a relay output yl, a cJmnnel output y, and a relay sender x2 (whose trasmission is allowed to depend on the past symbols y,). l%e dependence of the received symbols upm the inpnts is given by p(y,y,lx,,x,). ‘l%e channel is assumed to be memoryless. In this paper the following capacity theorems are proved. 1) Ifyisadegnukdformofy,,the.n C-m=Phx2) min(l(X,...

This paper presents two solutions within a Bayesian framework to the problem of selecting a subset of populations of breaking strengths from a specified finite set of them that will contain the one with the smallest or (equivalently from a mathematical perspective) largest α quantile. Independent random samples from each are assumed. Estimates of these quantiles are then used to specify conserv...

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women, both in the developed and developing countries. Women with mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes have an increased risk of breast and ovarian cancers. Recent studies show that short-wavelength visible light disturb the secretion of melatonin and causes circadian rhythm disruption. We have previously studied the health effects of exposure...
