Web Service is loosely coupled highly accessible distributed computing technology that can expose applications beyond the firewall. Composition of Web Services has received much attention from the business and the research community. Composition techniques are classified as static, dynamic and semi-automatic composition, each addressing different application areas and requirements. In this cont...

Various tomographic processing methods have been investigated in recent years. The quality of the focused tomographic image is usually limited by several factors. In particular, Fourier-based focusing methods are susceptible to irregular and sparse sampling, two problems that are unavoidable in case of multi-pass, multi-baseline SAR data acquired by an airborne system. Neither time-domain back-...

Evolutionary algorithms have been gaining increased attention the past few years because of their versatility and are being successfully applied in several diierent elds of study. We group under this heading a family of new computing techniques rooted in biological evolution that can be used for solving hard problems. In this chapter we present a survey of genetic algorithms and genetic program...

Design process in an interdisciplinary domain like mechatronics is a complex process and sets high demands for designer. It is wide known that decisions in conceptual stage of design process affect final product significantly. Therefore great attention for this phase of design must be paid. The paper gives an overview of the product development process focusing on the conceptual stage and the m...

53 persons suspected to alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency detection (aatd) were investigated for zz, mz, zs, ss, and ms alleles analysis by serum protein electrophoresis (spe), measurement of trypsin inhibiting capacity (tic), isoelectric focusing (ief), polymerase chain reaction (pcr), and ief/pcr-rflp techniques. the result clearly shows by using spe and tic techniques only 35.85 % and 50.08% of ...

Authors review the existing bleeding detection methods focusing their attention on the image processing techniques utilised in the algorithms. In the article, 18 methods were analysed and their functional components were identified. The authors proposed six different groups, to which algorithms’ components were assigned: colour techniques, reflecting features of pixels as individual values, tex...

Differences between individual human genomes, or between human and cancer genomes, range in scale from single nucleotide variants (SNVs) through intermediate and large-scale duplications, deletions, and rearrangements of genomic segments. The latter class, called structural variants (SVs), have received considerable attention in the past several years as they are a previously under appreciated ...

53 persons suspected to alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency detection (AATD) were investigated for ZZ, MZ, ZS, SS, and MS alleles analysis by serum protein electrophoresis (SPE), measurement of trypsin inhibiting capacity (TIC), isoelectric focusing (IEF), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and IEF/PCR-RFLP techniques. The result clearly shows by using SPE and TIC techniques only 35.85 % and 50.08% of ...
