Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeisser’s Cycle of Perception: Formal Representation and Practical ImplementationIgor A. Chimir, Waheeb A. Abu-Dawwas, Mark A. HorneyThis article presents results of a theoretical investigation of the application of the object-oriented Unified Modelling Language to a formal description of Neisser’s cycle of perception. The article includes class diagrams, modelling the spatial structure of Neisser’s cycle of perception and demonstrates how these formal descriptions can be applied to the area of modelling the problem-independent dialogue process. The basis … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 19 Oct 2005 · 5,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of the American with Disabilities Act on Public Education ExpendituresMark P. GiusSection 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 were enacted in order to protect the rights of individuals with disabilities. These two laws have had a major impact on public schools, their offerings of services and their budgets. The purpose of the present study was to determine if passage of the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyzing Concept Maps as an Assessment (Evaluation) Tool in Teaching MathematicsAhmet S. OzdemirIn this research concept mapping has been used as a testing instrument. In our country's education system, the relationship between the scores which are given to concept maps and the scores which are given to traditional written exams and multiple choice examinations in teaching mathematics, has been analyzed. Especially the examinations about functions, numbers, exponent numbers, rooted numbers and absolute … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,405 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Recursive Application of a Support Vector Machine for Protein Spot Detection in 2-Dimensional Gel ElectrophoresisGary D. Boetticher, Hisham Al-Mubaid, Karen Frasier-ScottTwo-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) analysis remains the core of proteomic technology because it is currently the most powerful method to analyze large collections of proteins. Advances in electrophoresis equipment are making this technique more accessible but effective computer assisted protein spot detection remains a very labor-intensive endeavor. Protein spot analysis is still time consuming, requires human intervention and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,675 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPharmacodynamic Comparison of the Carbapenems Against E. coli and Klebsiella spp. Containing Extended spectrum β-lactamasesKathryn J. Eagye, Joseph L. Kuti, David P. NicolauCarbapenems are the treatment of choice for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Ertapenem is a new member of the carbapenem class, and is often grouped with imipenem and meropenem as a recommended treatment for ESBLs. However, new in vitro data question ertapenem’s inclusion as a first line treatment for these bacteria, suggesting that ertapenem has a lower likelihood of obtaining appropriate pharmacodynamic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCiprofloxacin Does Not Exert Nephrotoxicity in RatsAsli Baykal, Figen Sarigül, G Süleymanlar et al.Ciprofloxacin, a member of the fluoroquinolone class, is an antibiotic used as a treatment for infections including the Anthrax bacteria. Studies concerning the safety and efficacy of ciprofloxacin have been controversial with respect to nephrotoxicity. Using rats orally treated with ciprofloxacin (400mg/kg/d), the effects of this drug were analyzed measuring several indications of nephrotoxicity: β-NAG, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputing ULV Decomposition by Divide Conquer MethodHasan Erbay, Jesse L. BarlowThe ULV decomposition (ULVD) is an important member of a class of rank-revealing two-sided orthogonal decompositions used to approximate the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). The ULVD can be modified much faster than the SVD. The accurate computation of the subspaces is required in applications in signal processing. In this study we introduce a divide conquer ULVD algorithm. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScheme for ISDN/DECT Wireless Internetworking and VerificationMaher Dababneh, Ibrahim QatawnehA novel scheme to access the basic rate service of the Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) using the Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone (DECT) radio interface standard is presented. The S-interface in the ISDN reference configuration has been used for the ISDN interface and the unprotected class 0 transmissions are used for the DECT interface. The design of a state of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSemi Strongly E-Convex FunctionsE. A. Youness, T. EmamIn this study a new class of functions, called semi strongly E-convex functions, and generalized semi strongly E-convex functions are defined .We discuss some their basic properties and obtain sufficient optimality criteria for nonlinear programming problems involving these functions. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtension to Sufficient Optimality Conditions in Complex ProgrammingE. A. Youness, M. E. ElbrolosyIn this study we extend the sufficient optimality conditions of complex programming problems to a large class of functions that include the two parts (real and imaginary) of the objective function. The sufficient conditions were established under generalized forms of convexity assumptions. The previous results that considered the real part only can be deduced as special cases. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,242 accessesView PDFCite
