Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. GBR-12935 is a piperazine derivative which is a potent and selective dopamine reuptake inhibitor. It was originally developed in its 3H radiolabelled form for the purpose of mapping the distribution of dopaminergic neurons in the brain by selective labelling of dopamine transporter proteins. This has led to potential clinical uses in the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, although selective radioligands such as Ioflupane ( I) are now available for this application. GBR-12935 is now widely used in animal research into Parkinson's disease and the dopamine pathways in the brain. Данное издание не...

All over the world, education has been adopted as an instrument for the total emancipation of both the individual and the society. There is no doubt that the type of education needed for the fulfillment of this aspiration is vocational/technical education. But there must be a planned investment in human resource development in the specific area of vocational/technical education for its job creating capability. Differential performances of sexes in technology education have now become an issue of interest. This study looks at the contributions of an important institution, the producer of middle-level manpower, for the socio-economic development of the country. In doing this, Kaduna Polytechnic is specifically discussed to assess the...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In electrical and mechanical trades and manufacturing, each of a pair of mating connectors or fasteners is conventionally assigned the designation male or female. The "female" connector is generally a receptacle that connects to and holds the "male" connector. The assignment is by direct analogy with genitalia and sexual intercourse; the part bearing one or more protrusions, or which fits inside the other, being designated male and the part containing the corresponding indentations or fitting outside the other being female. Extension of the analogy results in the verb to mate being used to describe connecting two ends together. Данное издание не является...

However the fast and development in DNA sequencing and high throughput technology, most of the simple biological process even in prokaryotic cells are not fully understood. This is because genes, as well as their products (proteins), do not work independently they interact with each other and form a complicated network which is called the Gene Regulatory Networks (GRN). GRN help us to understand the disease ontology and to reduce the cost of drug development. Recently, researchers from Caltech are able to answer some of the difficult and ambiguous biological questions by unlocking the Secrets of the Gene Regulatory Networks. During the last decade, many GRN construction algorithms have been developed. In this book, we simplified GRN...

General packet radio service (GPRS) is a packet oriented mobile data service available to users of the 2G cellular communication systems global system for mobile communications (GSM), as well as in the 3G systems. In 2G systems, GPRS provides data rates of 56-114 kbit/s. GPRS data transfer is typically charged per megabyte of traffic transferred, while data communication via traditional circuit switching is billed per minute of connection time, independent of whether the user actually is using the capacity or is in an idle state. GPRS is a best-effort packet switched service, as opposed to circuit switching, where a certain quality of service (QoS) is guaranteed during the connection for non-mobile users. 2G cellular systems combined...

As society strives to meet its energy needs while maintaining environmental responsibility, the current political movement is to harvest energy from renewable resources. Ambient energy that flows throughout nature is locally available and readily accessible. It can be divided into solar, wind, and hydro. Hydro power is a clean, consistent, and renewable source of free energy that is widely accessible around the world and is particularly in abundance in Canada. Current infrastructure delivers gigawatts of hydro power utilizing dams that tap into this resource by extracting the water's potential energy. There exists tremendous potential for extracting the water's kinetic energy as well; however this is currently not common practice. The...

This work investigates the possibility of obtaining 2-D all-pole low-pass filters, starting from all- pass filters. Previously, it has been shown that only 2-D band-pass and/or band-elimination filters were possible, when the starting point was the corresponding all-pass filters. In order to obtain such low-pass filters, the structure has been modified and the corresponding design procedure is enunciated. Starting from such analog low-pass filters, 2-D digital filters (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and band-elimination) have been obtained by the use of generalized bilinear transformations, which ensure stability. Further, it has been demonstrated that such filters can be effectively used in image processing applications. Данное...

Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging (MRI), a non-invasive method for imaging the human body, has revolutionized medical imaging. MR image processing, particularly segmentation, and analysis are used extensively in medical and clinical research for advancing our understanding and diagnosis of various human diseases. These efforts face two major difficulties - the first due to image intensity inhomogeneity present as a background variation component, and the second due to the non-standardness of the MR image intensities. Scale is a fundamental concept useful in almost all image processing and analysis tasks. Broadly speaking, scale related work can be divided into multi-scale representations (global models) and local scale models. In this...

In this book a generic library of efficient metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization is presented. In the version at hand classes that feature local search, simulated annealing, tabu search, guided local search and greedy randomized adaptive search procedure were implemented. Most notably a generic implementation features the advantage that the problem dependent classes and methods only need to be realized once without targeting a specific algorithm because these parts of the source code are shared among all present algorithms contained in EAlib. This main advantage is then exemplary demonstrated with the quadratic assignment problem. The source code of the QAP example can also be used as an commented reference for future problems....

In the last years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are acquiring more importance as a promising technology based on tiny devices called sensor nodes or motes able to monitor a wide range of physical phenomenon through sensors. The severe hardware restrictions of sensor nodes in relation to computation, communication and specifically, energy, have posed new technical and conceptual challenges. In particular, research is moving towards heterogeneous networks that will contain different devices running custom WSN operating systems. Operating systems specifically designed for sensor nodes are intended to efficiently manage the hardware resources and facilitate the programming. Nevertheless, they often lack the generality and the high-level...

A general purpose machine gun in concept is a multi-purpose weapon, a machine gun intended to fill the role of either a light machine gun or medium machine gun, while at the same time being man-portable. However, performance in either role may be inferior to a weapon specifically designed for that role. In modern practice, they are air-cooled medium machine guns firing rifle cartridges such as the 7.62x51mm NATO. They are generally operated from a stationary prone position from either a bipod or tripod, or mounted on a vehicle, as they are usually too powerful and heavy to be fired effectively on foot from an unsupported standing position or on the move.
