Background: Feeding behavior is regulated by a complex network which interacts via diverse signals from central and peripheral tissues. It is known dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems have crucial role on food intake regulation but scarce reports exist on their interaction in appetite regulation in broilers. OBJECTIVES: The present study was designed to examine the role of glutamatergic syst...

AIDA is an interactive educational diabetes simulator which has been made available without charge on the Internet. Since its launch on the World Wide Web in 1996 over 87,000 people have visited the AIDA Website--http://www.2aida.org--and over 22,000 copies of the program have been downloaded from there free-of-charge. The AIDA software is believed to be of use in recreating clinically realisti...

Isa bey Ishakovic built in 1462 a tekke, public kitchen and accommodation complex in Sarajevo. It was dedicated to travelers and Mevlevi dervishes. Today there is a road and gasoline station at this location. The goal of this paper is to bring these objects back to public memory using interactive storytelling. 3D models of objects are incorporated in a real-time virtual environment. The surroun...

This "Diabetes Information Technology & WebWatch" column continues the diabetes simulation theme from previous issues and overviews various user experience with the AIDA v4 interactive educational freeware diabetes simulator. AIDA is a diabetes computer program that permits the interactive simulation of plasma insulin and blood glucose (BG) profiles for educational, demonstration, and self-lear...

In this paper, we present an approach for extending the existing concept of nanopublications — tiny entities of scientific results in RDF representation — to broaden their application range. The proposed extension uses English sentences to represent informal and underspecified scientific claims. These sentences follow a syntactic and semantic scheme that we call AIDA (Atomic, Independent, Decla...

This paper presents our system for the “Making Sense of Microposts 2014 (#Microposts2014)” challenge. Our system is based on AIDA, an existing system that links entity mentions in natural language text to their corresponding canonical entities in a knowledge base (KB). AIDA collectively exploits the prominence of entities, contextual similarities, and coherence to effectively disambiguate entit...

The stream cipher BIVIUM (both BIVIUM-A and BIVIUM-B), a modification of the eSTREAM finalist TRIVIUM, can be broken completely by the Algebraic IV Differential Attack, AIDA, using 227.5 simulations or one minute of dual core processing. AIDA uses the subspaces of two 32-dimensional vector spaces over subsets of IV bits to recover 56 of the 80 key bits. The remaining 24 key bits are most easily...

A logo epitomizes a brand and depicts the picture of a product; consequently, attention, as an initial step of the AIDA model, to the logo is a good-looking index to survey the cognitive processing during consumers’ decision-making. Eye tracker extracts the visual attention data. For these reasons and appreciated from fixation duration, in the present study, the process of visual attention to t...

THE PREVIOUS TWO “Diabetes Information Technology & WebWatch” columns have focused on the application of database systems in clinical diabetes care. In this column, and the next two, the focus switches to diabetes education and a topic close to my heart—namely the use of interactive educational diabetes simulators. One such simulator, called AIDA, which is available for download without charge ...
