Mobile technologies and more precisely apps have disrupted technology scenario. Bring your own application (BYOA) is a new trend that has emerged after the “bring your own device” (BYOD) vogue. However, and in spite of its intrinsic benefits, the trend presents also several caveats and Enterprise app stores are seen as a way to tackle these risks. In this paper, authors present ModEAS, a system...

Social reformers such as John Stuart Mill and John Dewey have long expressed concern about a tension between democratic principles and organizational practices that appear undemocratic.' More recently, a substantial body of academic literature advocating changes in organizations to make them more democratic has been produced.2 Change has been advocated on a variety of normative grounds. In a no...

Following pre-meiotic DNA replication, homologous chromosomes must be paired and become tightly linked to ensure reductional segregation during meiosis I. Therefore initiation of homologous chromosome pairing is vital for meiosis to proceed correctly. A number of factors contribute to the initiation of homologous chromosome pairing including telomere and centromere dynamics, pairing centres, ch...

Problem statement: The scientific community is in need of more rigorous understanding of the mechanism of initiation of mitosis. The complete understanding of the initiation sequence may allow knowledge of the normal and disease states, including cancer. This understanding and knowledge would open the way for developing curative treatment of cancer. This article proposes a mechanism of initiati...

It recently has been established that adenine-containing cofactors, including nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), and 3'-desphospho-coenzyme A (dpCoA), can serve as 'non-canonical initiating nucleotides' (NCINs) for transcription initiation by bacterial and eukaryotic cellular RNA polymerases (RNAPs) and that the efficiency of the reaction...

It is widely accepted that protein synthesis, including local protein synthesis at synapses, is required for several forms of synaptic plasticity. Local protein synthesis enables synapses to control synaptic strength independent of the cell body via rapid protein production from pre-existing mRNA. Therefore, regulation of translation initiation is likely to be intimately involved in modulating ...

TransTerm is a database of initiation and termination sequence contexts from more than 250 organisms listed in GenBank, including the four complete genomes:Haemophilus influenzae, Methanococcus jannaschii, Mycoplasma genitalium,and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For the current release, more than 60 000 coding sequences were analysed. The tabulated data include initiation and termination contexts or...

An extension of the coupled criterion (CC) finite fracture mechanics is established in order to assess dynamic crack initiation. The main change compared classical quasi-static approach consists considering velocity profile during initiation instead assuming an instantaneous proposed enables study under either or loading. It illustrated on several examples including transverse cracking laminate...

Sexual script theory is the theoretical foundation for understanding how sexual interactions are navigated, including sexual initiation. Sexual initiation occurs when an individual conveys interest in sexual activity when sexual behaviors are not yet in progress. Past research has demonstrated that women initiate sex less frequently than men in other-sex relationships, perhaps due to traditiona...
