In the present article we observe the significations and the dimensions of interaction between instruments and performers in musical performance. This will lead us, firstly, to consider interaction as a phenomenon non-exclusively correlated with the use of numeric technologies. Then, still within the realm of interaction, we describe some of the transmutations introduced by digital music instru...

Population structure, growth, length-weight relationship and reproduction characteristics of leaping grey mullet (Liza saliens (Risso, 1810) were investigated in Beymelek Lagoon from February 2006 to January 2007.  During the study, a total of 1248 leaping grey mullet were captured by gill- and trammel nets of various mesh sizes. Male to female ratio for leaping grey mullet population in Beymel...

Abstract This author introduces the concept of Stepwise Strategy Approach (SSA) for dealing with a number of problems arises in the current age of technology. This new idea is combined with the knowledge of Grey Theory for adding flexibility to decision making process. Grey theory is useful for grasping the ambiguity exists in the utilized information and the fuzziness appears in the human judg...

Non-linear dose response relationships pose statistical challenges for their discovery. Even when an initial linear approximation is followed by other approaches, the results may be misleading and, possibly, preclude altogether the discovery of the nonlinear relationship under investigation. We review a variety of straightforward statistical approaches for detecting nonlinear relationships and ...

Children's ability to place fractions on a number line strongly correlates with math achievement. But does the number line play a causal role in fraction learning or does it simply index more advanced fraction knowledge? The number line may be a particularly effective representation for fraction learning because its properties align with the desired mental representation and take advantage of p...

The totally positive algebraic integers of certain number fields have been shown to be the sums of four squares of integers from their respective fields. The case ofQð ffiffiffi 5 p Þ was demonstrated by Götzky and the cases of Qð ffiffiffi 2 p Þ and Qð ffiffiffi 3 p Þ were demonstrated by Cohn. In the latter situation, only those integers with even coefficient on the radical term could possibl...

In the recent paper [3] by Asai et al., the growth order of holomorphic functions on a nuclear space has been considered. For this purpose, certain classes of growth functions u are introduced and many properties of Legendre transform of such functions are investigated. In [4], applying Legendre transform of u under the conditions (U0), (U2) and (U3) (see §2), the Gel’fand triple [E ]u ⊂ (L) ⊂ ...

the present study was carried out in 2011 to measure concentration of heavy metals chromium and tin in liver and muscle tissue of liza aurata (golden grey mullet) in estuaries of the rivers babolroud, tajan and gorganroud. accordingly, after sampling the target are asandisolating muscle (18samples) and liver (18samples) tissues, they were digested and analyzed using graphite furnace atomic abso...

The influence of dyeing and spinning on the characteristics of cotton fibers and its impact on the properties of cotton mélange yarn has been investigated. Grey cotton fibers with mean fiber length and fineness of 29 mm and 4.2 micronair were pre-treated and dyed. Three ring yarns were spun from 100 % grey cotton (R.R.Y), 50-50 % blend of dyed and grey cotton (M.R.Y) and 100 % dyed cotton fiber...
