Since before we can remember, humanity aims to overcome its biological limitations; such a goal has certainly played a key role in the advent of technique. However, despite the benefits that technique may bring, the people who make use of it will inevitably be under risk of harm. Even though human technical wisdom consists in attaining the best result without compromising anybody’s safety, misu...

The impact factor of scientific reviews, calculated by the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), is increasingly used to evaluate the performance of scientists and programmes. Bibliometric indicators, originally designed for other purposes than individual evaluation, are very useful tools provided their interpretation is not extrapolated beyond their limits of validity. Here we present a ...

This paper describes a handbook of scripts—Scriptapedia—for developing structured group model building sessions. Andersen and Richardson (1997) have identified the importance of standardized protocols or “scripts” in group model building (GMB). GMB scripts have historically existed as undocumented structured small group exercises. Scriptapedia represents an effort to improve the practice of GMB...

The short answer to the above question is no, not in general. Although the issues involved remain partially open, the present brief is an attempt to clarify some of the misconceptions and misuses embroiled in the subject of bulk viscosity. Consider the genesis of the query. To close the equations of motion for a continuum fluid, a relation between surface forces and the flow field is needed. A ...

Now that a composite human genome has been sequenced (HGP), research has accelerated to discover precise genetic bases of several chronic health issues, particularly in the realms of cancer and cardiovascular disease. It is anticipated that in the future it will be possible and cost effective to regularly sequence individual genomes, and thereby produce a DNA profile that potentially can be use...

The antibiotics have been considered one of the key tools that are utilized in present day healthcare industry for fighting against bacterial infections; none-the-less, misuses or repeated utilization antibiotics, resulted resistance, which causes considerable threats numerous people with common infections. Using probiotics enhancement gastrointestinal health was suggested several years. Recent...

Many studies show that corruption negatively affects public investment, reduces government revenue, misuses resources, and decreases expenditure quality of life for the people. It is also considered leading cause behind low infrastructure, damaging social, economic, political, infrastructural development. Similarly, hinders development because it distorts resources affecting economic growth ser...

The data science industry has grown exponentially due to the surge in consumer consumption of technology-related services and products. Following closely is specialty Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm development use, which holds significant potential for an organization’s bottom line. By combining these new AI capabilities with treasure troves legacy data, organizations can automate decis...

The Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation is the most commonly employed theoretical scheme for study of natural or mixed convection flows. However, misunderstanding this approximated framework a possibility that may cause emergence paradoxes or, at least, incorrect conclusions. In paper, basic features are briefly recalled and three simple examples where be misused provided. Such misuses lead to er...
