The business of contemporary organizations is heavily dependent on information systems. Business processes and IT are interwoven and numerous technologies are in use. How the involved systems affect each other or impact the organizations’ business domain is often uncertain, thus decision-making regarding information technology is challenging. Enterprise architecture (EA) is a holistic, model-ba...

The Ba0.985La0.015Ti0.9Sn0.1O3 ceramic has been prepared by a cost-effective solid-state reaction method. Preliminary room-temperature X-ray diffraction indicates that the crystallization of is good. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy was used to study microstructure ceramic. photoelectron spectroscopy characterize oxygen vacancies. Dielectric properties and impedance reflected charact...

Objectives: To establish a fixed-point theorem on complete S -metric space. Methods: By using (E.A)-property of self-maps and applying the concept strong comparison function. Findings: Obtained unique common for four S-metric space validated it with suitable example. Novelty: utilizing weak compatibility together (E.A)- property, fixed point is obtained which more robust generalization existing...

Randia dumetorum (RD) fruits in different form have been ethnopharmacologically reported to possess antiasthmatic property. Therefore, present study was undertaken to evaluate two different extracts of RD i.e., ethyl acetate (RD-EA) and methanol (RD-ME) for bronchorelaxant, anti-inflammatory, mast cell stabilizing and antioxidant effect along with safety margin, according to OECD guidelines for...

Numerous studies signify that diets rich in phytochemicals offer many beneficial functions specifically during pathologic conditions, yet their effects are often not uniform due to inter-individual variation. The host indigenous gut microbiota and their modifications of dietary phytochemicals have emerged as factors that greatly influence the efficacy of phytoceutical-based intervention. Here, ...

The study examined corrosion inhibition of corrosion inhibition of 5-methyl-2H-imidazol-4-carboxaldehyde and 1H-Indole-3-carboxaldehyde on mild steel in acidic medium using weight loss and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods. DFT calculations were carried out at B3LYP/6-31+G** level of theory in aqueous medium on the molecular structures to describe electronic parameters. The values of ther...

Active composites consisting of materials that respond differently to environmental stimuli can transform their shapes. Integrating active and 4D printing allows the printed structure have a pre-designed complex material or property distribution on numerous small voxels, offering enormous design flexibility. However, this tremendous space also poses challenge in efficiently finding appropriate ...

BACKGROUND Description of the heart as a pump has been dominated by models based on elastance and compliance. Here, we are presenting a somewhat new concept of time-varying passive and active elastance. The mathematical basis of time-varying elastance of the ventricle is presented. We have defined elastance in terms of the relationship between ventricular pressure and volume, as: dP = EdV + VdE...

Agent-based computational economics (ACE) combines elements from economics and computer science. In this paper, we focus on the relation between the evolutionary technique that is used and the economic problem that is modeled. Current economic simulations often derive parameter settings for the genetic algorithm directly from the values of the economic model parameters. In this paper we show th...
