The deadline for the transposition of Directive (EU) 2019/790 (the CDSM Directive) into national law expired on 7 June 2021. Some EU Member States have failed to perform transposition, and so they also introduce new obligations under Article 17 prescribing brand requirements that online content-sharing service providers (OCSSPs) shall comply with. As a part these rules, OCSSPs amend their end-u...

in this paper, pile behavior embedded in layered soil deposits subjected to seismic loadings is analyzed using a nonlinear fiber element for simulation of soil – pile interactions. in the created model, both pile and surrounding soil are modeled using fiber elements in a practical beam on nonlinear winkler foundation (bnwf) concept. herein, the features of drain–3dx finite element software are ...

In the Brazilian Digital Television System (SBTVD) two environments are defined, the procedural and the declarative one, which run simultaneously in the same middleware. The procedural environment is called GingaJ and uses the Sun Java language, while the declarative one is called GingaNCL and it is based on the Nested Context Language (NCL). These two environments compose the Ginga middleware....

In this paper we present a taxonomy for distribution architectures of synchronous groupware. As demonstrated by our own groupware platforms DreamTeam and QuickStep, a certain architecture may be a suitable for one scenario, but may have many disadvantages in another scenario. Former taxonomies divide distribution architectures into centralized, replicated and hybrid ones. Such a classification ...

Iranian offshore oil and gas platforms are mostly located in the Persian Gulf. Technical and environmental challenges resulted from an off-design running condition of processes on a platform are important issues. The weakness of strategies to stop or decrease the amount of greenhouse gas emission production rate in the Persian Gulf; which is intensively increasing, is another matter of concern....

This study describes the fabrication techniques for two forms of magnetic DNA nanotubes (MDNTs) and their applications as platforms for developing colorimetric assays. The first form of MDNTs was DNTs filled-up with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and the second one was DNTs arayed with MNPs on their extrior surfaces. Then the both forms of MDNTs were employed as platforms for attaching a specifi...
