A study was made on the prevalence of some parasitic infections appearing in domestic rabbits obtained from individual breeders in Serbia in order to improve the agricultural production of these animals. Aside from economic reasons (meat production and reproduction) rabbits are bred for the research purposes, and races are kept as household pets. For these reasons, among others, it is imp...

The droughts that hit North and Western Europe in 2018 2019 served as a wake-up call temperate regions are also affected by these kinds of slow progressing or creeping disasters. Long-term drivers, such land-use changes, may have exacerbated the impacts meteorological droughts. These which spread over long time span, even be difficult to perceive for an individual, but make big difference how r...

In this chapter, we present an algebraic framework in which a set of simple, intuitive operations applicable to music can be flexibly combined to realize a target application and generate music. We formalize the concept of time-span tree introduced by Lerdahl and Jackendoff (1983) in their Generative Theory of Tonal Music (GTTM) and define the distance between time-span trees, on the hypothesis...

We developed a music analysis system called a full automatic time-span tree analyzer (FATTA), which analyzes a piece of music based on the generative theory of tonal music (GTTM). We previously developed an automatic time-span tree analyzer (ATTA), which can acquire a time-span tree of GTTM. Although the ATTA has adjustable parameters for controlling the weight or the priority of each rule, the...

This paper studies the existence of spatial diffusion civil liberty among neighboring countries. For that purpose, we first combine different exploratory space-time data analysis approaches to find this phenomenon is spatially clustered and a convergence process at work world countries from 1985 2010, with structural change by end Twentieth century mainly due appearance Internet. Second, specif...

The longitudinal rank-order stability of cognitive ability increases dramatically over the life span. Theoretical perspectives differ in their emphasis on genetic mechanisms in explaining the longitudinal stability of cognition and how stability changes with development. However, the patterns of stability of genetic and environmental influences on cognition over the life span remain poorly unde...

It is 20 years since the term “geographic information science” was suggested to encompass the set of fundamental research issues that surround GIS. Two decades of GIScience have produced a range of accomplishments, in an expanding literature of research results as well as in the infrastructure of research. Several themes are suggested for future research, based both on gaps in what has been acc...

INTRODUCTION Based on historical data, a decline in sperm counts during the years 1940-1990 has been suggested and aetiologically linked to a concomitant increase in the incidence of testicular cancer. This study, focusing on possible changes in sperm parameters among young Swedish men, during the past 10 years, was specifically designed in order to answer the question of whether there is a con...

Urban sprawl is a global phenomenon of present era and mostly taking place in less developed countries. In LDCs there consistent vibrant trend among the people to agglomerate mega cities large urban centers. This has gained attention researchers fields geography, environmental studies city & regional planning. Keeping view its importance, an attempt been made explore use geo-informatics tec...
