As technology becomes ever more pervasive, the challenges of home automation are increasingly apparent. Seamless home control, home monitoring and home programming by the end user have yet to enter the mainstream. This could be attributed to the challenge of developing a fully autonomous and extensible home system that can support devices and technologies of differing protocols and functionalit...

The Shank family of proteins interacts with NMDA receptor and metabotropic glutamate receptor complexes in the postsynaptic density (PSD). Targeted to the PSD by a PDZ-dependent mechanism, Shank promotes the maturation of dendritic spines and the enlargement of spine heads via its ability to recruit Homer to postsynaptic sites. Shank and Homer cooperate to induce accumulation of IP3 receptors i...

We describe here the first release of the Ancient Greek Dependency Treebank (AGDT), a 190,903-word syntactically annotated corpus of literary texts including the works of Hesiod, Homer and Aeschylus. While the far larger works of Hesiod and Homer (142,705 words) have been annotated under a standard treebank production method of soliciting annotations from two independent reviewers and then reco...

CRITICISM as an instinctive reaction to the performance of poetry is as old as song,” writes George Kennedy in beginning theCambridge History of Literary Criticism, and Kenneth Dover reminds readers of the Frogs that “in pre-literate cultures the composition of songs is a process in which discussion and criticism, often passionate, play an important part—and inevitably so, because aesthetic rea...

REVIEW / ACTA INFORM MED. 2016 DEC; 24(6): 422-423 HOMER R. WARNER (19222012) Homer R. Warner is one of the pioneers and fathers of medical informatics in the world (1-4). Many aspects of computer applications in medicine is well known, discovered and introduced in the mid-1950’s and late by Homer Warner. He began working on clinical decision support technology in the cardiology department at L...

The nature of home automation is introduced. It is argued that end users should be able to define how the home system reacts to changing circumstances. Policies are employed as user-defined rules for how this should happen. The architecture of the Homer home automation system is briefly overviewed. The Homer policy system and the Homeric policy language it supports are explained. A technique is...

Abstract— A case study of grid connected PV system analysis is done for 500 kW grid connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system at a northern location of Bangladesh. HOMER and MATLAB Programming tools and monthly average solar radiation data from NASA is used for this study. In this paper a grid connected PV power plant is designed and simulated using HOMER software, the power plant is sized to su...

An experimental study is presented, which investigates the process of building qualitative simulation models using HOMER, a tool for building qualitative models of systems. HOMER consists of a number of dedicated editors aiming at decomposing the complexity of the model building process into more manageable subtasks. The aims of the present study are a) validating the original task analysis und...

a hybrid hydro/wind/photovoltaic base on hydrogen storage system is designed to supply power demand of pump stations. the aim of this design is minimization of net present cost of the hybrid system. optimization problem is subject to reliable supply of the demand. the system is investigated in the north west of iran (meshkinshahr) and the local data is applied. about 12 pump stations are found ...

Homer, the ancient Greek poet (8th or 7th century BC) was the reator of the Iliad, an epic poem of dactylic hexameters that tells s the history of the Trojan, and also – as a kind of sequel – the dyssey that tells us about the hero Odysseus’ journey home after he fall of Troy in dactylic hexameters. Homer Richards Warner (1922–2012), the US-American cardilogist was the creator of ILIAD and ODYS...
