associating certain forms and designs in islamic arts with the promised heaven may be widely observed in the works of many historians and critics of the field. it is believed that islamic art has been derived from the imagination of the paradise as depicted in holy quran. to express this meaning in technical words it should be said that the main concept in islamic arts has been the gardens of h...

Finding structure in multiple streams of datais an important problem. Consider thestreams of data flowing from a robot’s sen-sors, the monitors in an intensive care unit,or periodic measurements of various indica-tors of the health of the economy. Thereis clearly utility in determining how currentand past values in those streams are relatedto future values. W...

In this paper, we propose an online single-pass algorithm MFC-append (Mining Frequency Change patterns in append-only data streams) for online mining frequent frequency change items in continuous append-only data streams. An online space-efficient data structure called ChangeSketch is developed for providing fast response time to compute dynamic frequency changes between data streams. A modifie...

Introduction In 1974 Fleet and Ho 1] successfully demonstrated an automated continuous flow titration system using a reagent gradient. This system had a throughput of only ten samples per hour, but it was significant since it demonstrated the principles for titration of discrete samples in continuously flowing streams. Nagy et al. [2,3 ]have also demonstrated a similar approach. In 1977, Ruzick...

A 32-year-old man was attacked by flies while camping around Khorram Abad, Lorestan Province, western Iran. Pruritic dermatitis with marked edema and considerable discomfort appeared mainly on the lower legs. The flies were identified as Simulium. Simuliids are tiny bloodsucking flies, popularly known as blackflies or buffalo flies, belonging to the dipterous, family Simulidae. They are occurre...

Some of the inshore reefs of the Great Barrier Reef are showing impacts consistent with a decline in water quality as a result of increased sediments and nutrients. The Wet Tropics covers approximately 2.2 million hectares and includes 91 percent of the Wet Tropics World Heritage area. The climate and geomorphologic conditions of the region are unique in Australia and generally result in fast f...

a flow injection method is reported for the determination of ascorbic acid based on amperometric detection, using a cobalt(ii) phthalocyanine (copc) modified graphite-epoxy electrode. the amperometric respons was evaluated with regard to ph, ionic strength of the electrolyte, flow rate of the carrier solution, injected sample volume and conditioning time of the electrode. the limit of detection...

The study aim was to gain a better understanding of the characteristics of informal caregivers who provide transportation assistance and to explore the types and frequency of this assistance. A telephone survey was administered to a representative sample of 268 informal caregivers (age 45-80) who provide transportation assistance to older adults (age 70 and older) in Michigan. Responses were an...

[1] Ice streams are regions of fast flowing glacier ice that transport a significant portion of the total ice flux from present ice sheets. The flow pattern of ice streams can vary both temporally and spatially. In particular, ice streams can become stagnant and change their path. We study the dynamics of ice streams using an idealized model of an isothermal and power law viscous ice flow that ...
