La découverte du système des peptides natriurétiques (NP), au début des années 80, fut une découverte majeure qui révéla le rôle endocrinien du cœur. Les connaissances sur la relaxation vasculaire, la diurèse et la natriurèse provoquées par ce système ont…

The reality of global climate changes creates the necessity of predicting how will be the climatic scenario in our planet and how it will affect the economic activities in the future. For some climatic variables the global climate models projections…

Our research project intends to build knowledge about HPC problems to be able to help local researchers. In order to advise users in choosing parallel machines to run their applications, we want to establish a general methodology, requiring as shallow…

Over the last several years, multidimensional data modeling has had several proposals for its formalisation; on the other hand, the incorporation of fuzzy logic in databases has increased the need to represent uncertainty.
However, to our knowledge, so far projects…

This paper uses dynamic general equilibrium and computational methods, inspired by the multi-sector growth model structure in Stephen Turnovsky’s previous and more recent work, to develop a theory that unifies two of the traditional explanations of structural change: sector-biased technical…

El presente artículo ofrece los resultados de una investigación con una metodología
de carácter cuantitativo llevada a cabo en grandes empresas españolas, que abarcó un
conjunto de variables de diseño organizativo. En este caso, se corresponde al estudio de
la…

Artificial neural networks (ANN) are very efficient in solving various kinds of problems But Lack of explanation capability (Black box nature of Neural Networks) is one of the most important reasons why artificial neural networks do not get necessary interest…

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation should be known by all health workers. Advanced life support should be protocol driven and all first responders should be well trained in carrying this out. My aim in doing this audit was to assess the training and…

This review discusses the present trends in studies on the impacts of climate change on plant diseases. Firstly, the approaches used for studying the potential effects of altered temperature, water availability, CO2 and O3 air concentrations, and UV-B radiation on…

Over the past several decades, a new paradigm of organization has been reshaping higher education in the United States. Most colleges and universities now operate like knowledge factories. Notions of faculty governance have been eroded by the decision-making power of…
