Jul 01, 2021
Task scheduling on the cloud involves processing a large set of variables from both the task side and the scheduling machine side. This processing often results in a computational model that produces efficient task to machine...
Sentiment Analysis of Tweets During the COVID-19 Pandemic Using Multinomial Logistic Regression
Recently, the research on sentimental analysis has been growing rapidly. The tweets of social media are extracted to analyze the user sentiments. Many of the studies prefer to apply machine learning algorithms for performing...
EEG signatures of cognitive and social development of preschool children-a systematic review.
BACKGROUND: Early identification of preschool children who are at risk of faltering in their development is essential to ensuring that all children attain their full potential. Electroencephalography (EEG) has been used to...
Supporting addictions affected families effectively (SAFE)

Aims: To explore the effect of the relatives’ drinking on their family members, and the preliminary impact of the 5-step method intervention on the adverse effect of the relatives’ drinking on their family members. Methods...

New models to study vascular mural cell embryonic origin
A key question in vascular biology is how the diversity of origin of vascular mural cells, namely smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and pericytes influences vessel properties, in particular the regional propensity to vascular diseases....
Englishization in offshore call centers

The spread and use of English as the lingua franca of international business (IB)-"corporate Englishization"-has received increasing scholarly attention in recent years but the focus has mostly been on the communication...

Aortic “Disease-in-a-Dish”
Thoracic aortic diseases, whether sporadic or due to a genetic disorder such as Marfan syndrome, lack effective medical therapies, with limited translation of treatments that are highly successful in mouse models into the...
Quantifying preference for social stimuli in young children using two tasks on a mobile platform.
Children typically prefer to attend to social stimuli (e.g. faces, smiles) over non-social stimuli (e.g. natural scene, household objects). This preference for social stimuli is believed to be an essential building block for...

Embryonic origins of human vascular smooth muscle cells
Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) arise from multiple origins during development, raising the possibility that differences in embryological origins between SMCs could contribute to site-specific localization of vascular...
Finite element analysis of the microstructure of AlN-TiN composites
Finite element modelling (FEM) is performed on AlN-TiN composites. The structure-property relationships are studied for 5 and 10vol.% TiN composites in view of thermal and thermo-mechanical properties. Thermal stresses are...
Self-Aware Contextual Behavior Analysis for Service Quality Assurance Over Social Networks
Social media allows people to share their ideologue through an efficient channel of communication. The social dialogues carry sentiment in expression regarding a particular social profile, trend, or topic. In our research, we...
ROP Defense Using Trie Graph for System Security
Most Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) / Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) cannot defend the attacks from a Return Oriented Program (ROP) which applies code reusing and exploiting techniques without the need for code injection....
Investigating Host and Parasitic Plant Interaction by Tissue-Specific Gene Analyses on Tomato and Cuscuta campestris Interface at Three Haustorial Developmental Stages.
Parasitic weeds cause billions of dollars in agricultural losses each year worldwide. Cuscuta campestris (C. campestris), one of the most widespread and destructive parasitic plants in the United States, severely reduces yield...
