Researchers in fields such as bioinformatics, CS, finance, and applied math have trouble managing the numerous code and data files generated by their computational experiments, comparing the results of trials executed with different parameters, and keeping up-to-date notes on what they learned from past successes and failures. We created a Linux-based system called BURRITO that automates aspect...

In this paper we propose a new computationally efficient algorithm for automatic estimation of intima and media boundary of common carotid artery (CCA) based on ultrasound (USG) image analysis. The intima-media thickness (IMT), equal to distance between intima and media boundary, is typically used to predict cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction and stroke. At present, it is measured...

In reality, the flipped classroom has gained popularity as a modern way of structuring teaching, where lectures move from in-class procedures to digitally-based assignments, freeing up debate, and practice exercises class time. Therefore, it is essential implement analyze teaching that will improve student performance. The paper aims develop model method science in Iraqi schools, assess whether...

The goal is to consider the possibilities of a virtual educational ecosystem using mobile devices, interactions students and teachers, faculties laboratories university, interactive activation material monitoring student learning process. research methodology includes methods system analysis, synthesis, decision-making, multi-agent systems situational modeling. Results work: 1) systematic inter...

In this paper, we describe SAMARATM, a Security Agent-Based environment for security process design, management, and execution that integrates aspects of security process modeling, security assessment, and security management. SAMARA is targeted specifically to domains such as engineering security design in which the dynamic and uncertain nature of the security processes present management chal...

In this paper, we describe KPMTM, a knowledge-based environment for process design, management, and execution that integrates aspects of process modeling, workflow, and project management. KPM is targeted specifically to domains such as engineering design in which the dynamic and uncertain nature of the processes present management challenges that are unmet by traditional workflow systems. KPM ...

Vegetation has closer relationship with the hydrological cycle, changing them due to their conditions. Vegetation regulates the hydrological cycle making water faces all the stages adequately causing the process stability. Vegetation retains great parcel of the rainwater, freeing it for the water courses and surface and subterranean reservoirs, little by little. In this work, the impact of defo...

A unique example of phenotypic flexibility of the oral apparatus is present in newts (Salamandridae) that seasonally change between an aquatic and a terrestrial habitat. Newts grow flaps of skin between their upper and lower jaws, the labial lobes, to partly close the corners of the mouth when they adopt an aquatic lifestyle during their breeding season. Using hydrodynamic simulations based on ...
