The purpose of this research is to address the problem of extracting information from travel itineraries and discuss the challenges faced in the process. Businessto-customer emails like booking confirmations and e-tickets are usually machine generated by filling slots in pre-defined templates which improve the presentation of such emails but also make the emails more complex in structure. Extra...

The scope of this study is to describe the experiences of mothers of children with intellectual disabilities who have been treated in a specialized institution in Feira de Santana, State of Bahia, during their therapeutic itineraries. The study adopted a qualitative approach and was conducted by means of semi-structured interviews. The results revealed that the discovery that their child has an...

We examine the itinerary of 0 ∈ S = R/Z under the rotation by α ∈ R\Q. The motivating question is: if we are given only the itinerary of 0 relative to I ⊂ S, a finite union of closed intervals, can we recover α and I? We prove that the itineraries do determine α and I up to certain equivalences. Then we present elementary methods for finding α and I. Moreover, if g : S → S is a C, orientation p...

The study is about harvesting point of interest from GPS trajectories. Trajectories are the paths that moving objects move by follow through space in a function of time while GPS trajectories generally are point-sequences with geographic coordinates, time stamp, speed and heading. User can get information from GPS enable device. For example, user can acquire present location, search the informa...

This paper presents the E _-C_ommerce through W_ ireless dE _vices (E-CWE) project that uses software agents in the design and development of an m-commerce environment. Users of the E-CWE environment are able to use their wireless devices, such as mobile phones, to undertake e-commerce transactions. Conducting these transactions raises new issues that vary from the limited bandwidth of networks...

The sudden rise of monumental palace art in the shape of wall relief programs in Assyria in the ninth century BCE under Ashurnasirpal II (883-859) in his North-West Palace of Kalhu (modern Nimrud) has long interested scholars. It has been common practice to speak of the Syrian and Anatolian cultural spheres as the source of inspiration for these relief programs (e.g. Winter 1982, Gilibert 2004)...

There are numerous cases where we need to reason about vehicles whose intentions and itineraries are not known in advance to us. For example, Coast Guard agents tracking boats don’t always know where they are headed. Likewise, in drug enforcement applications, it is not always clear where drug-carrying airplanes (which do often show up on radar) are headed, and how legitimate planes with an app...

Unraveling the conformational catalytic itinerary of glycoside hydrolases (GHs) is a growing topic of interest in glycobiology, with major impact in the design of GH inhibitors. b-xylanases are responsible for the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds in b-xylans, a group of hemicelluloses of high biotechnological interest that are found in plant cell walls. The precise conformations followed by the s...
