Gelfand with grandaughter. Israel Moiseevich Gelfand, a mathematician compared by Henri Cartan to Poincaré and Hilbert, was born on September 2, 1913, in the small town of Okny (later Red Okny) near Odessa in the Ukraine and died in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA, on October 5, 2009. Nobody guided Gelfand in his studies. He attended the only school in town, and his mathematics teacher could off...

T he XX/XY sex chromosomal system of mammals, including human, challenges the chromosome pairing mechanism during male meiosis. Pairing and subsequent separation of homologous chromosomes generates haploid cells from diploid cells during the meiotic divisions. One of the basic requirements for recognition between homologous chromosomes is DNA sequence identity. Since the X and Y chromosome shar...

In this paper, we study the Gaussian relay channels in the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime with the time-sharing compress-and-forward (CF) scheme, where at each time slot all the nodes keep silent at the first fraction of time and then transmit with CF at a higher peak power in the second fraction. Such a silent vs. active two-phase relay scheme is preferable in the low-SNR regime. With ...

Wireless sensor networks typically require low cost devices and low power applications. Hence, such networks usually employ radios with only simple modulation techniques such as ASK, OOK and FSK [9]. We present in this paper, a two energy efficient communication schemes for wireless sensor networks which are a redundant radix based number (RBN) representation i.e. RBNSiZeComm (Redundant Binary ...

Due to the increasing demand for mobility in the area of distributed systems, the use of wireless communication gains in importance. We present a wireless real-time communication protocol for the interconnection of several possibly mobile fieldbus clusters. The protocol is based on the time-triggered paradigm. A single dedicated master node is used to keep the clocks of all slaves synchronized,...

BACKGROUND The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing in the United States, caused in part by older age and increasing prevalences of hypertension and type 2 diabetes. CKD is silent and undetected until advanced stages. The study of populations with earlier stages of kidney disease may improve outcomes of CKD. METHODS The Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP), a National Ki...

This study aims to recognize the possible role of social media in forming xenophobia and hate speech against Syrian refugees understand reinforcing causes negative effects that on refugees, as well refugees’ response mechanisms speech. A mixed approach was used this study. In addition a questionnaire tool collect data, focus group discussions were conducted support obtained data. The statistica...
