The United States education system is not meeting the needs of today’s youth, and
this is especially the case for minority and low socio-economic status youth. Although
there are a number of policy proposals that could improve youth academic performance,

La transcription, la maturation d’ARN, et le remodelage de la chromatine sont tous des processus centraux dans l'interprétation de l'information contenue dans l’ADN. Bien que beaucoup de complexes de protéines formant la machinerie cellulaire de transcription aient été étudiés, plusieurs…

In 1950, Tinbergen described the elicitation of offspring begging by the red spot on the bill of parent gulls, and this became a model system for behavioural studies. Current knowledge on colour traits suggests they can act as sexual signals…

Human health risk assessment and management (HHRAM) is a systemic approach to characterize the nature and concentration of human health risks associated with any health hazard and the possible restoration of health by utilizing the scientific and technological knowledge. Computer…

The jurist Balsamon, in the course of his legal strictures on women who are mentruating, exhibits some detailed knowledge of anatomical and erotic literature and of unorthodox sexual practices.

Homer's several statements about the polar constellations prompted ancient critics both to emend the received text, in order to attribute to Homer advanced astronomical knowledge, and to defend it, by means of reinterpretation.

Monitoring, management, and conservation of grassland birds are topics of importance because of widespread population declines. Annual estimates of survival are available for many species, however knowledge of how survival varies on a seasonal basis remains poor. Information on the…

In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…

Desarrollamos una aplicación de la tecnología computacional en la evaluación del conocimiento de los estudiantes. Implementamos una tecnología cliente-servidor, de código original en Java, basada en el proceso natural de evaluación donde los estudiantes (clientes) universitarios son evaluados por un…
