This paper considers large-scale simulations of wave propagation phenomena. We argue that it is possible to accurately compute a wavefield by decomposing it onto a largely incomplete set of eigenfunctions of the Helmholtz operator, chosen at random, and that this provides a natural way of parallelizing wave simulations for memory-intensive applications. Where a standard eigenfunction expansion ...

Objectives: to determine the occurrences of bacterial colonization of atopic dermatitis in children of Qassim region in Saudi Arabian Methods. In a hospital-based study we collected 2 swabs, one from lesional skin and the other from a healthy skin area as healthy control from 80 children with atopic dermatitis. Isolation and identification were done by colony morphology, Gram stain and the auto...

This study was carried out in the nephrology unit to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital, Rajshahi during the period 2003-2005. Renal biopsy was done in one hundred adult patients with Nephrotic syndrome to evaluate the histopathological pattern. Mesangioproliferative GN was the commonest underlying cause which is found in 36 (40%) cases. MPGN is followed by minimal change disease in 22 (24.44%),...

The protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii infects more than a billion people worldwide. The parasite is generally divided into three clonal lineages, denoted type I, II and III. Primary infections in humans are usually asymptomatic or characterized by non-specific symptoms, and are followed by latent chronic infection, which is normally harmless to the host. However, if the immune system is supp...

WELCOME to the last 2015 issue of the IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies. This issue completes the eighth year of journal publication with six papers focused on three groups of popular Learning Technology topics: recommender systems, mobile learning, and technology-enabled labs. Just like the previous issue, we start with another timely review, this time focusing on educational recommen...
