The quality of content-based recommendation depends to a very high degree on the quality of the metadata available. We propose a workflow that combines novel cross media analysis platforms with linked data analysis to generate recommendations. The focus is set on an “editor user story” that combines live analysis of currently created content with a stored data backlog to select suitable content...

AIM To select carbazole-degrading bacteria able to survive and metabolize carbazole in biphasic organic-water media and to study the factors affecting carbazole degradation in such conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS In this research a new carbazole-degrading strain was isolated from hot springs in Mexico. This bacterium was preliminary identified as Burkholderia sp. IMP5GC and was able to grow u...

This paper presents a novel approach for theoretical estimation of power consumption in digital binary adders. Closed-form expressions for power consumption of four different types of binary adders – the ripple-carry adder, the Manchester adder, a multiplexor-based carry-select adder and an efficient tree-based look-ahead adder – are derived in terms of word-length and pre-computed technologysp...

We show how to translate expressions in a higher-order programming language into SQL queries. Somewhat surprisingly, we show that any suitable expression translates to a single SQL query, where the suitability is determined by a type-and-e ect check. Thus, unlike in Hollywood where a script-writer can never be sure a movie sequel will be popular, we show how to be sure that your SQL|written in ...

in the present study, seven isolates of haemophilus influenzae type b were cultured in four different media to compare growth rate and capsule production. four liquid media namely brain heart infusion broth (bhi), trypticase soy broth (tsb), mueller hinton broth (mhb) and gonococci broth (gc) with added supplements (1% hemoglobin, 1% isovitalex) were used. the growth was measured by colony coun...

A type of bell-shaped compact high order window function ψ(x, y) is studied, and closed analytic and approximation formulas are derived for its Hankel transforms. Applications of these results are presented as fast algorithms for calculating dyadic Green’s functions for electromagnetic scattering in multilayered media. Numerical results in electromagnetics are provided to demonstrate the accura...
