This paper studies poverty as a dynamic phenomenon, motivated by the recurring economic crises that affect developing countries and the incidence of income fluctuations on household welfare. While the increasing availability of household panel data has been exploited in theoretical analysis and empirical applications, the methodological and applied literatures still lack a unified framework. Ec...

We study numerically the transition between organized and disorganized states of three non equilibrium systems in their respective scaling regimes. The first system is the Poisson/coalesce random walk (PCRW) where the particles describe independent random walks and when two particles meet they could coalesce with probability k, otherwise, they interchange their positions. The second system is a...

A method for the colorimetric estimation of manganese by reduction of the phosphomolybdicphosphotungstic acid phenol reagent has been described (Abul-Fadl, 1948). Cobalt was also found to give a similar colour reaction in the presence (but not in the absence) of amino-acids. Conversion of cobalt into the cobaltinitrite did not affect its response to this reaction. As methods for the estimation ...

We comment on the recent paper by Abul-Magd (J.Phys.A: Math.Gen. 29 (1996) 1) concerning the energy level statistics in the mixed regime, i.e. such having the mixed classical dynamics where regular and chaotic regions coexist in the phase space. We point out that his basic assumption on the additive property of the level-repulsion function r(S) (conditional probability density) in the sense of ...

intertextuality of literary-historic figures is one of the artistic techniques of poetry in modern era being used a lot by contemporary arab poets. because of their proximity to arab contemporary poets, the previous classic poets have a great share of the call.among the previous poets, abul ‘ala al-ma‘arri, known as the philosopher of the poets, with his philosophical attitudes and strange life...

The objective was to investigate the prevalence and the association between blood groups and Helicobacter pylori IgG seropositivity among pregnant Sudanese women. A cross-sectional survey was carried-out at Saad Abul Ela Maternity Hospital, Khartoum, Sudan during the period of July 2014 through December 2015. Questionnaires covering socio-demographic and obstetrics information were administered...

before, though such high values are seen in cases of myeloproliferative diseases (Bases, 1962). The prostate was normal clinically and at post-mortem examination. Another cause of raised serum acid phosphatase is an extremely high level of alkaline phosphatase activity in the serum (Woodard, 1959), some of which persists even at an acid pH. The alkaline phosphatase, however, was never found to ...

An upward drawing of a rooted tree T is a planar straight-line drawing of T where the vertices of T are placed on a set of horizontal lines, called layers, such that for each vertex u of T , no child of u is placed on a layer vertically above the layer on which u has been placed. In this paper we give a linear-time algorithm to obtain an upward drawing of a given rooted tree T on the minimum nu...

Small and medium sized UAVs like German LUNA have long endurance and define in combination with sophisticated image exploitation algorithms a very cost efficient platform for surveillance. At Fraunhofer IOSB, we have developed the video exploitation system ABUL with the target to meet the demands of small and medium sized UAVs. Several image exploitation algorithms such as multi-resolution, sup...
