MAINSTREAMING METADATA INTO RESEARCH WORKFLOWS TO ADVANCE REPRODUCIBILITY AND OPEN GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SCIENCE

Reproducible open science with FAIR data sharing principles requires research to be disseminated with open data and standardised metadata. Researchers in the geographic sciences may benefit from authoring and maintaining metadata from the e...

The effect of science centres on perceptions of secondary school students towards the nature of science

In the study reported on here, the effects of science centres on the perceptions of secondary school students towards the nature of science were examined. The study group consisted of 16 students aged 13 and 14 of which 7 were female and 9 ...

Vehicular ad hoc networks verification scheme based on bilinear pairings and networks reverse fuzzy extraction

Abstract Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) have facilitated the massive exchange of real-time traffic and weather conditions, which have helped prevent collisions, reduce accidents, and road congestions. This can effectively enhance drivin...

Utilization of mobile health applications and determinant factors among health science students at Debre Markos University, northwest Ethiopia in 2022.

BackgroundHigh penetration of smartphones and ownership among the young generation increased the utilization of mobile health applications for health management among university students more than ever. Compared to other health service prov...

The Effects of N-acetylcysteine on Inflammatory Markers and Homocysteine: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Background: Recently a number of trials investigated the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) administration on inflammatory markers and homocysteine (Hcy). However, their findings are controversial. The aim of this paper is to present a meta-a...

Solving Composite Fixed Point Problems with Block Updates

Various strategies are available to construct iteratively a common fixed point of nonexpansive operators by activating only a block of operators at each iteration. In the more challenging class of composite fixed point problems involving op...

Morbidity and mortality of urological procedures: an analysis of outcomes according to residents' experience.

The article carries out an analysis of the competitiveness of the Russian space industry in the international space services market according to the following indicators: the volume of budget of national space organizations, the volume of t...

Modelling Quantum Software

This annotated bibliography delves into the field of quantum computing, focusing specifically on the resources used throughout the software life cycle. It examines several published works that analyze quantum software modelling in the conte...

QG-WRN: A Quantum-Enhanced Graph Convolutional Wide Residual Network for ASD Diagnosis via Neuroimaging Sensing Technology

The pathological mechanism of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibits dual heterogeneity: abnormal local energy metabolism and brain-wide high-order topological failure. To synergistically characterize these complex signals captured by adva...

Scalable and High-Fidelity Quantum Random Access Memory in Spin-Photon Networks

A quantum random access memory (qRAM) is considered an essential computing unit to enable polynomial speedups in quantum information processing. Proposed implementations include the use of neutral atoms and superconducting circuits to const...

Enhancing Communication Security in Drones Using QRNG in Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum

This paper presents a novel approach to enhancing the security and reliability of drone communications through the integration of Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG) in Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) systems. We propose a mult...

DEVELOPMENT OF STEM-BASED DIGITAL POCKETBOOK ON SPLDV MATERIAL USING THE ADDIE MODEL: APPLICATION IN ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS

This study aims to assess the feasibility, teacher and student responses, and effectiveness of the STEM-based digital pocketbook on the topic of Systems of Linear Equations in Two Variables (SPLDV). The subjects of this research were junior...

Spatial patterns in the contribution of biotic and abiotic factors to the population dynamics of three freshwater fish species

Background Population dynamics are driven by a number of biotic (e.g., density-dependence) and abiotic (e.g., climate) factors whose contribution can greatly vary across study systems (i.e., populations). Yet, the extent to which the contri...

Genomic Organization and Expression of Iron Metabolism Genes in the Emerging Pathogenic Mold Scedosporium apiospermum

The ubiquitous mold Scedosporium apiospermum is increasingly recognized as an emerging pathogen, especially among patients with underlying disorders such as immunodeficiency or cystic fibrosis (CF). Indeed, it ranks the second among the fil...

AMALGAMATION OF BUSINESS INT ELL IGENCE WITH ENT ERPRISE RESOURCEPLANN ING SYSTEMS FOR IND USTRY 4.0

Businesses today are incredibly data rich, and dealing with large amount of data, so making some inferences andconclusions, depending on the organisation size and complexity of its processes, it has been a challenge, especially that thenext...

Statics and Dynamics of Selfish Interactions in Distributed Service Systems.

We study a class of games which models the competition among agents to access some service provided by distributed service units and which exhibits congestion and frustration phenomena when service units have limited capacity. We propose a ...

Toward a Fit-for-purpose Policy Architecture on Long-term Care in Sub-Saharan Africa: Impasse and a Research Agenda to Overcome it

Context: Perspectives from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) have featured little in the expanding global debate on long-term care (LTC) policy thus far – despite SSA countries’ embrace of global commitments on the development of equitable and susta...
