The fate of a new theory is to a large extent determined by the time intervening its development and the availability of a set of tools that supports practical applications. This last step is crucial if the methods developed are to become widely accepted and used. During the last two decades, considerable progress has been made in small-sample asymptotics leading to a well-established theory on...

Receiving empathy and understanding is a constant need for those living with aphasia, an acquired language disorder that impairs expressive and receptive language (both spoken and written). With the introduction of ACES, a system that realistically emulates the effects of aphasia, we demonstrate how people can increase their empathy towards individuals aphasia, by experiencing the disorder firs...

background: intestinal parasites are still a serious public health problem in the world, especially in developing countries. this study aimed to assess the prevalence of intestinal protozoa infections and associated risk factors among schoolchildren in sanandaj city, iran. methods: this cross-sectional study involving 400 schoolchildren was carried out in 2015. each student was selected using s...

The title compound, C(27)H(30)O(6), was prepared by monodihydroxy-lation of the bis-olefin (E,E)-tert-butyl 2-acetyl-2-cinnamyl-5-phenyl-pent-4-enoate using standard Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxy-lation conditions, followed by treatment with 1,1'-carbonyl diimidazole. In the crystal structure, the phenyl rings form an intra-molecular edge-to-face C-H⋯π contact with an inter-planar angle of 56....

the major aim of this study was to compare the morphology and activity of rumen protozoa of khuzestan water buffalo and holstein cow using in vitro digestibility and gas production parameters of steam treated sugarcane pith. rumen fluid obtained from two buffalo and cow steers fed the same diet, 30:70 concentrate: forage. to separate rumen protozoa, antibiotic solution and fungicides were added...

Compiler construction is a widely used software engineering exercise, and hence this paper presents a compiler system for adaptive computing. The final result of this paper is to provide a general knowledge about compiler design and its implementation. In order to develop effective compi-lation techniques, it is important to understand the common characteristics of the programs during compi-lat...

Modern emot ion th eor ies empha sise the adap t ive va lue of emot ions. Emo tions are by no means always help fu l, however. They often must be regu lated . The study of emot ion regu lation has its o r igins in the psychoana lytic and stress and cop ing trad it ions. Recen t ly, increa sed interest in emot ion regu lation has led to crucia l boundary ambigu it ies that n ow threaten progress...
