The development style of open source has a possibility to create new business markets for Regional IT industries. Some local governments are trying to promote their regional IT industries by adopting an open source in their electronic government systems. In this paper, we analyze the data of open source application policy of the Japanese government and case studies of promotion policy of local ...

The hippocampal theta rhythm is a prominent oscillation in the field potential observed throughout the hippocampus as a rat investigates stimuli in the environment. A recent computational model [Hasselmo, M. E., Bodelon, C., & Wyble, B. P. (2002a). A proposed function for hippocampal theta rhythm: separate phases of encoding and retrieval enhance reversal of prior learning. Neural Computation, ...

The graph-search algorithms developed between 60s and 80s were widely used in many fields, from robotics to video games. The A* algorithm shall be mentioned between some of the most important solutions explicitly oriented to motion-robotics, improving the logic of graph search with heuristic principles inside the loop. Nevertheless, one of the most important drawbacks of the A* algorithm reside...

The intimin gene eae, located within the locus of enterocyte effacement pathogenicity island, distinguishes enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and some Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) strains from all other pathotypes of diarrheagenic E. coli. EPEC is a leading cause of infantile diarrhea in developing countries, and intimin-positive STEC isolates are typically associated with life-t...

Estimation of long-term effective population size (N(e)) from polymorphism data alone requires an independent knowledge of mutation rate. Microsatellites provide the opportunity to estimate N(e) because their high mutation rate can be estimated from observed mutations. We used this property to estimate N(e) in allotetraploid wheat Triticum turgidum at four stages of its history since its domest...

We propose an energy-stable parametric finite element method (ES-PFEM) to discretize the motion of a closed curve under surface diffusion with anisotropic energy $\gamma(\theta)$ -- in two dimensions, while $\theta$ is angle between outward unit normal vector and vertical axis. By introducing positive definite (density) matrix $G(\theta)$, we present new simple variational formulation for prove...

introduction: the basic objective of this study is to investigate the effects of alpha and theta brain waves amplitude increase in occipital area on reducing the severity of symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder and to increase the global functioning level in patients with gad. methods: this study is a quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test with two groups. for this purpose, 28...
