Adaptive Educational Hypermedia (AEH) systems require massive and complex knowledge spaces in order to provide adaptation and personalisation in learning. Hence, it is difficult for a single person or a small group of people to develop them effectively. Former studies addressed the problem by developing collaborative authoring systems. However, the systems tended to support object reusability r...

Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency is reported to be an important factor in the early process of endometrial carcinogenesis. Although estrogen exposure is a crucial risk factor for endometrial carcinoma (EMCa), estrogen function is mediated by the estrogen receptor (ER). However, the relationship between ER and MMR, such as hMLH1 (human mutL homolog 1) activity, remains undetermined. In this stud...

The scheduling algorithm is a fundamental design problem to allocate resources amongst different entities in distributive wireless sensor networks (WSNs). These sensor nodes have limited power and non-replenishable energy resources. In WSNs, the duty cycling mechanism is commonly used to save energy due to idle listening. On the other hand, a fixed duty cycling mechanism increases transmission ...

O objetivo do estudo foi identificar processos educativos decorrentes da práxis lúdica no contexto atendimento educacional hospitalar (AEH) desde uma revisão de literatura. A metodologia a utilização levantamento na Biblioteca Digital Brasileira Teses e Dissertações – BDTD, período 2017 2021. Foram selecionadas analisadas três dissertações. análise permitiu identificação dos seguintes educativo...

The rapidly emerging and growing social networking sites (SNS) offer an opportunity to improve adaptive e-learning experience by introducing a social dimension, connecting users within the system. Making connections and providing communication tools can engage students in creating effective learning environment and enriching learning experiences. Researchers have been working on introducing SNS...

Introducción: El diagnóstico y tratamiento del angioedema hereditario (AEH) son necesarios para mejorar la calidad de vida e incluso supervivencia pacientes. Reporte caso: Mujer 52 años con desde hace 30 años, que afecta cara, lengua manos, asimétrico, sin prurito ni urticaria, respuesta a antihistamínicos corticoides, resolución espontánea entre las 48 72 horas, historia familiar angioedema. E...

Authoring in adaptive educational hypermedia environment is complex activity. In order to promote a wider application of this technology, the teachers and course designers need specific methods and tools for supporting their work. In that sense, data mining is a promising technology. In fact, data mining techniques have already been used in E-learning systems, but most of the times their applic...

A new hybrid homogenization approach is proposed for simulating the homogenized and local response of unidirectional fuzzy fiber nanocomposites undergoing inelastic deformations. Fuzzy composites are hierarchical reinforcing structures where fibers coated with radially aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) embedded in matrix. In this spirit, modeled as a three-scale medium. At microscale, CNTs-reinfo...

A multilength scale method based on asymptotic expansion homogenization (AEH) is developed to compute minimum energy configurations of ensembles of atoms at the fine length scale and the corresponding mechanical response of the material at the coarse length scale. This multiscale theory explicitly captures heterogeneity in microscopic atomic motion in crystalline materials, attributed, for exam...

Narrow band imaging (NBI) has been used in the gastrointestinal endoscopy field as a novel endoscopic imaging technique and has contributed to improved qualitative diagnosis and detection of lesions. However, there are only a few studies of use of NBI in the gynecology field. We applied NBI in flexible hysteroscopy at our outpatient clinic and evaluated the utility of NBI hysteroscopy for diagn...
