The fishing industry is deeply dependent on complex and high quality diets consisting of dry feed, vitamins and micro/macro-elements. The suitable dose of each essential nutrient is different based on the fish species, their age and physiological conditions. In this study, the effects of two recommended doses of riboflavin (20 and 30 mg vitamin per each kg dry feed) on growth, hematological and...

Chemistry knowledge can be represented at macro-, microand symbolic levels, and learning a chemistry topic requires students to engage in multiple representational activities. This study focused on scaffolding for inter-level connection-making in learning chemistry knowledge with graphical simulations. We also tested whether different sequences of representational activities produced different ...

Projected performance metrics of free-space optical and electrical interconnections are estimated and compared in terms of smart-pixel input-output bandwidth density and practical geometric packaging constraints. The results suggest that three-dimensional optical interconnects based on smart pixels provide the highest volume, latency, and power-consumption benefits for applications in which glo...

To provide sufficient capacity in traffic hot spots, small micro cells are needed to complement macro cells providing low cost large area coverage. These problems can be solved by using a mixed cell structure with macro cells for coverage and micro cells for capacity. Such a scenario, where coverage is provided from both macro and micro cells in a large part of the service area, is often referr...

Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) is the integration of various pieces of information and computer technologies to the transportation elements in order to obtain a more productive transportation system. The five major components of IVHS are the Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), Advanced Vehicle Control Systems (AVCS), and Advanced Public Transportation systems (APTS). This pa...

there have been much speculation and debate concerning the effect of electromagnetic fields (emf) on body systems. various reports have implicated excessive exposure to emf to certain forms of leukemia. it has also been reported that emf may cause alteration in the levels of certain macro- and micro-nutrients such as copper, zinc, selenium, calcium and iron. we have undertaken this study to det...

An important issue regarding the deeper understanding of social and organisational phenomena is the interaction and the linkage between micro and macro layers. The micro-macro-link deals with the emergent aggregation of processes and actions on the micro-level and with structures, rules and roles on the macro-level. This paper presents recent results of the “socionics” project ASKO, which is a ...
