objective: nutrition in childhood has an important role in current and adulthood health. recent studies have shown that the mother’s lifestyle has an important role in the methods used by mother to feed child. this paper aimed to investigate the association between mother’s weight efficacy lifestyle with feeding practices in children aged 3- 6 years. materials and methods: in this cross-section...

We present PRACTI, a new approach for large-scale replication. PRACTI systems can replicate or cache any subset of data on any node (Partial Replication), provide a broad range of consistency guarantees (Arbitrary Consistency), and permit any node to send information to any other node (Topology Independence). A PRACTI architecture yields two significant advantages. First, by providing all three...

We present PRACTI, a new approach and architecture for large-scale replication. PRACTI systems can replicate or cache any data on any node (Partial Replication), provide a broad range of consistency and coherence guarantees (Arbitrary Consistency), and permit any node to share updates with any other node (Topology Independence). Our PRACTI architecture yields two significant advantages. First, ...

In recent years, learning on smartphones has becomes a significant trend in education. The educational mobile app, Practi, provides a platform that can let students practice their knowledge of math and science. Practi gives students reward points when they finish a course or solve a question to encourage them to keep using the app. Students can use these reward points to redeem in-app items. Ho...

In order to better understand the development of play and games in modern lives, this article examines two competitive leisure groups: digital fighting game players traditional taekwondo practi...

When Dr. Carl Pulfrich 1909 introduced the “Vacation Course in Stereophotogrammetry”, terrestrial photogrammetry has driven most applications. He, the founder of stereophotogrammetry, was convinced, that after the introduction of the stereo comparator (1901) a new milestone was needed to improve the accuracy of photogrammetric object reconstruction. Obviously, there is nothing better than initi...

Many replication mechanisms for large scale distributed systems exist, but they require a designer to compromise a system’s replication policy (e.g., by requiring full replication of all data to all nodes), consistency policy (e.g., by supporting per-object coherence but not multiobject consistency), or topology policy (e.g., by assuming a hierarchical organization of nodes.) In this paper, we ...

As classical sociocultural insti tuti ons, museums acti vely conduct educati onal acti viti es with the use of modern informati on technologies. The integrati on of educati onal and technological practi ces in the museum environment defi nes the fi eld in which it is necessary to demonstrate a compelling combinati on of classical, traditi onal and new goals and tools of museum pedagogical commu...
