This article reviews the Oxford Chichewa-English/English-Chichewa Dictionary compiled by Steven Paas, published in 2016 by Oxford University Press in Cape Town. Upon a review of the dictionary, a number of issues arise. The...
The interplay between magnetism and superconductivity can lead to unconventional proximity and Josephson effects. A related phenomenon that has recently attracted considerable attention is the superconducting diode effect, in...
Linking data by finding matching instances in different datasets requires considering many characteristics, such as structural heterogeneity, implicit knowledge, and URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)-oriented identification. The...
To address this research possibility, the present empirical study undertakes the assessment of usable-security of healthcare software system. The attributes considered for the assessment are: four factors at first level;...
This chapter explores valuating the efficacy of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for predicting the estimated blood loss (EBL) and also transfusion requirements of myomectomy patients. All 146 myomectomy surgeries...
In this article, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used for optimizing a metamodel of surface roughness (R_a ) in drilling glass-fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) composites. A response surface methodology (RSM) based three levels (-1...
Mobile operators globally are endeavoring to expand beyond legacy communications/media business to create new growth engine based on information and communication technology (ICT). This research studies the case of KT to see how...
There is a predicted potential of 42 000MW stored in tidal energy off the coast of Canada which remains widely untapped by the energy industries.Although there has been significant research and development done in the tidal...
Recently, various new areas of research have been of great interest to researchers. As these areas are highly based on academic and industrial needs, it is necessary to examine the change and evolution in research. This study...
NMR spectroscopy is a powerful tool that is commonly used to assess the degradation of lithium-ion battery electrolyte solutions. However, dissolution of paramagnetic Ni2+ and Mn2+ ions from cathode...
T cells use finger-like protrusions called 'microvilli' to interrogate their targets, but why they do so is unknown. To form contacts, T cells must overcome the highly charged, barrier-like layer of large molecules forming a...
As the voluminous amount of data is generated because of inexorably widespread proliferation of electronic data maintained using the Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Medical health facilities have great potential to discern the...
Healthcare insurance applications are increasingly vital to and have gained popularity with consumers. Previous information systems research featured perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness as key independent variables to...
This chapter explores valuating the efficacy of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for predicting the estimated blood loss (EBL) and also transfusion requirements of myomectomy patients. All 146 myomectomy surgeries...
Mobile health (mHealth) plays a key role in improving healthcare interventions by engaging patients in healthcare management. Still, there is a paucity of empirical studies on the extent to which mHealth adoption could be...
Performance evaluation is a systematic way for companies to analyze their current status and progress to reach their goals. Companies constantly evaluate their processes in research and development, purchasing, production, sales...
Barataria Bay is located on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, immediately south of New Orleans,
LA. The southern half of the basin consists of approximately 1,900km2 of marshland and 600km2 of
swampland. These wetlands are all...
The proposed Energy East pipeline project has raised concerns about potential oil spills in Saint John, New Brunswick, due to increased tanker traffic. While environmental conditions such as strong tide and current could pose...
The researchers conducted a study in a ‘Computer Programming’ course of three engineering departments (Civil, Industrial and Mechatronics) in a Turkish private university (n=240). A closed Facebook group was set up for serving...
The aim of this study is to ex amine the impact of human resource planning (HRP) in achieving strategic goal of the firm and organizational productivity. Structural equation modeling (SEM) approach is used to investigate causal...
Human society has entered the era of intelligence. Social development in the era of intelligence has spawned a large number of intelligent applications. Intelligent applications have put forward unprecedented requirements on the...
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed to deal with text summarization for the Punjabi language. PSO is based on intelligence that predicts among a given set of solutions which is the best solution. The search...
The proliferation of free on-demand music streaming services (e.g., Spotify) is offsetting the traditional revenue sources (e.g., purchases of downloads or CDs) of the music industry. In order to increase revenue and sustain...
