This work analyses how municipalities used in Spain the a stimulus package for economic activities and employment that allowed city councils to invest in a wide range of town infrastructures with the central government funds, call “Plan E investment”. This analysis is made from a gender perspective based the capability approach theory. Despite the current regulations, the acts confirming these funds lacked a report on gender impact. This is why this approach is unavoidable once the destination of the large amount of resources mobilized has been revealed. We have assigned a score to each one of the 8,045 Spanish municipalities that used these resources by conducting a survey addressed to 93 gender agents who assessed the investment in infrastructures. After the overall analysis of results, this paper focuses on finding out whether the score is significantly influenced by the political leanings of the local government and the local president´s gender.
Today, a major problem in our society is how we deal with difference as it appears in various guises: the difference between cultures and therefore the value, the difference between personalities, the difference in economic development and political conception. Education responsibility in this matter is essential, but also problematic. In present, education gives a special attention to the concept of intercultural competence. This article aims to realize a synthetic analysis of the main models for the interpretation of intercultural competence present in the scientific literature.
Abstract\nThis article was prepared as a part of the research project “Tolerance and solidarity as the basis for cross-cultural communication in the context of the modernization of Kazakhstan society”. The issue being investigated has theoretical and practical importance, as one of the features of Kazakhstan is a poly-ethnicity with 140 ethnic groups. In the geo-cultural, geopolitical terms Kazakhstan is located at the intersection of different civilizations affecting the cultural identity in Kazakhstan: Muslim, Christian and Confucian. In this context, it is very important finding of objective factors to determine the nature of globalization, trends of Western culture values, the study of principles and guidelines ensuring a harmonious system of social relations, cultural protection and safety. Identification of cultural archetypes, identification of the mentality features and formation of tolerance principles are the future tasks of contemporary cultural studies.\nTheoretical-methodological and practical necessity of cultural-philosophical analysis of the tolerance issues is to form a representative model of the society that is focused on the civilized development, as well as the ethnic spiritual values, which is one of the criteria of efficiency, assurance of integral cultural development of society.

The paper is the review of the key tourism destination concepts, whose appearance is a result of the dynamic development of tourism and maturation of theoretical thought in this area. The traditional view of a destination is largely based on its geographical features. However, the systemic concept of destination is focused on the interaction between tourists, staff in industries providing tourism services, and local population. Nowadays, attention is drawn to understanding of destinations as complex adaptive systems, whose elements adapt to events around them. The interactions among their elements are carried out according to certain rules, and are of a dynamic nature. They are influenced by and influence the external environment, and such systems have the capacity to learn from experience and change.
The present study investigated the antimicrobial activity of basham (Commiphora gileadensis, L.) aqueous extracts against two fungi Aspergillus niger, Penicilium italicum and two Gram negative bacteria Escerichia coli, Salmonella typhi. The basham aqueous extracts were found to inhibit radial growth of both fungi. The effect was clear at the first days and at the last days of the experiment, but the effect was in-significant. Mycelial fresh and dry weights of both fungi were also significantly reduced by the extracts of C. gileadensis. We observed that increasing the concentration of extract increased inhibition of the myclial growth of the two fungi tested. The effect on mycelial growth was more pronounced on P. italicum than on A. niger. The effect of leaves extract of C. gileadensis on E. coli and S. typhi was evaluated by the inhibition zone and dilution methods. A clear zone of inhibition was shown by the extracts against both bacteria, although the effect was less against E. coli. The results of the dilution plate method showed that the log number of colonies of both bacteria was highly decreased with C. gileadensis extracts; however, S. typhi was more susceptible and greatly affected.
This paper deals with the spatial management of communes in the context of protecting the natural environment and utilising ecosystem services. For the purpose of this study, in the context of planning the future spatial development of a commune, the following types of areas have been delineated: those in which the ecosystem provides the area for the benefit of humans (Latin dare), those which humans use as part of open landscape, only slightly altering it or leaving it unaltered (facere, non facere), and those used by humans in a way which allows to compensate for the adaptation and alteration of the function of non-invested terrains for land seizure (pati).\nThe study involves an analysis of planning documents delineating the spatial policy of communes within the Wrocław poviat (Poland), with regard to the established ecosystem services, as well as a statistical analysis of the results. Indicative analyses have been used to evaluate the magnitude of the services. These include: the transformation indicator (Wt), the urbanisation indicator (WU) and the durability indicator (Wp). To assess the proper management of space, a summary evaluation of the sustainable development of a commune (SWZR) was used.
Eco-friendly gold nanorods a novel approach, synthesized from aqueous solution of chloroauric acid and CTAB by using biomaterial mix of Olea europaea fruit and Acacia nilotica extracts, as a reducing agent has been presented in this effort. The extracts contain flavonoids, phenols, pentacyclic triterpenoid and tennisenn, with several biological activities. The eco-friendly synthesis of the AuNRs in solution was monitored by measuring the UV–vis spectral analysis, Zitasizer for the nanoparticles average size; and the morphology of the nanorods were confirmed using transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive spectrophotometer. The synthesized green gold nanorods were generally found to be rod shaped with an average size of 96 nm. Eco-friendly gold nanorods showed highly effective antibacterial activity towards Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Kleb sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Salmonella sp.), and also with antibiotic, examined by the agar-well-diffusion method. The results may support the future of nanomedicine confirmed that the biomaterial mix of O. europaea fruit and A. nilotica extracts are very cost effective, eco-friendly and nontoxic sources for the synthesis of gold nanorods as compared to the conventional chemical approaches. \nKeywords: Olea europaea, Acacia nilotica, Gold nanorods, Eco-friendly Synthesis, Gram-positive microorganisms, Gram-negative microorganisms
Purpose: Migraine is a disorder of chronic autonomic dysfunction. Changes in autonomic tone may alter P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion which are associated with atrial fibrillation development. The purpose of the present study was to compare p-wave durations and p-wave dispersions in patients with migraine without any cardiac disease and healthy subjects. Methods: Forty-eight patients with migraine and 46 healthy subjects were included in the study. Resting heart rate, maximum and minimum p-wave durations were measured from 12-lead surface electrocardiogram recordings during migraine-attacks and pain-free periods. The difference between maximum and minimum p-wave duration was calculated and defined as p-wave dispersion. Results: Patients with migraine had prolonged maximum p-wave duration and increased p-wave dispersion compared to the control subjects both during- attack and pain-free period (p<0.001, for all). There was a significant difference between during-attacks and pain-free period for the maximum p-wave duration (p=0.015) but not for minimum p-wave duration and p-wave dispersion (p>0.05, for both). Conclusions: Patients with migraine are related with prolonged maximum p-wave duration and increased p-wave dispersion both during attack and pain free period. Therefore, these electrocardiographic changes in patients with migraine may be associated with increased risk of developing arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation.
Iraq being one of the developing countries of the world considers energy efficiency and the impact of its generation on the environment an imperative process in improvement of its power generation policies. Iraq bearing high temperatures all year long results in reduction of air density, therefore, Inlet air Cooling and Steam Injection Gas Turbines are a striking addition to the regenerative gas turbines. Regenerating Gas turbines tend to have a high back work ratio and a high exhaust temperature, thus, it leads to a low efficiency in power generation in hotter climate. Moreover, STIG and IAC through fog cooling have known to be the best retrofitting methods available in the industry which improve the efficiency of generation from 30.5 to 43% and increase the power output from 22MW to 33.5MW as the outcomes of computer simulations reveal. Additionally, this happens without bringing about much extensive change to original features of the power generation cycle. Furthermore, STIG and spray coolers have also resulted in power boosting and exceeding generation efficiency of gas turbine power plant.
Abstract\nGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, a common human enzymatic disorder has been determined by a variety of genetic heterogeneity. This disease can be diagnosed by molecular tests based on the most representative causative mutations in the population. G6PD Canton is one of them. To confirm the marker position of the mutation, a case/control study was performed for genotyping and analyzing the association with the disease. Canton mutation was screened in a 253 cases and 202 controls sample set by an AMRS-PCR.This study gave result that Canton mutation occurred in the population with the frequency 23,5%, and in the G6PD deficient population with the frequency18.97% (≈ 19%). There was a strong association between the risk allele T in this mutationand G6PD deficiency in Vietnamese Kinhpopulation (OR = 8.861; 95% CI [4.398-17.855]; p<0.0001). Provided that allrisk-allele-containing genotypes were considered, they also significantly showed the association with the disease (OR=5.021; 95% CI [2.399-10.509]; p<0.0001). This study certified that the Canton is one of the most common causative mutations for G6PD deficiency in Vietnamese Kinh and, definitely, can be used as an indicator for diagnosis of G6PD in Vietnamese Kinh.
The study described in this paper was intended to present the possible application of the laser scanner to protect the environment at the stage when spatial planning decisions are made. The used automatic laser measurement technology allowed measurable, fully objective point models to be obtained in a short period of time. The resultant scan was processed by superimposing a texture to obtain a spatial model, and then land development elements were inserted in their natural environment. Visualizations can be helpful in selecting the most advantageous land development option, and can result in protecting land before it is developed or in leaving it unchanged. For the purposes of the study, which supports ecosystem protection, three sites located at the village of Sulistrowiczki, the town of Sobótka (both within the commune of Sobótka) and the village of Maniów Mały (the commune of Mietków) were diagnosed. The field work was carried out in the years 2011 and 2012. It was established that afforestation of one of the areas covered by the study in line with the adopted land development policy would obscure the view of the crown of the Mietkowski Reservoir dam.\nKey words: laser scanning, 3D scanner, protection of ecosystems
In the sulfur recovery unit (SRU), H2S is converted to elemental sulfur. In this paper, SRU is simulated using TSWEET simulator. Moreover, in this paper, a new operating unit is added to the SRU and then the effect of oxygen concentration on the sulfur compounds in the air to the unit (in the four energy rate of the condenser (4)), including H2S and SO2 in the tailgas is investigated. In each four energy rate of Condenser (4), the concentration of H2S available at tailgas from 0.077 mole percent to near zero has reduced. However, with the increasing of the oxygen concentration in the air, the SO2 concentration has increased 21 mole percent, approximately.

Starting from the consequences of global climatic changes upon the local ecosystems we have tried to create a coherent methodology for assessing flood vulnerability in the cities of Romania based on a typical sample of indicators grouped in three sub-modules whose intensity was evaluated by grades from 0.1 to 1. These led to the classification of Romanian cities in five classes of vulnerability to a certain genetic type of flood. On the basis of this classification, we have carried out one representative case study regarding the floods from Moldavia in July 2010, using GIS mapping techniques. We have considered three perimeters of analysis: Şerbeşti-Săuceşti and Fundeni-Nămoloasa on Siret River, respectively Sadoveni-Ripiceni on Prut River.
The aim of this study was to determine the potential nutritive of mistletoe plants obtained from four different host plants using chemical composition and in vitro gas production technique at different incubation times. The host had a significant effect on the chemical compositions, the gas production parameters, organic matter digestibility (OMD) and metabolizable energy (ME) of mistletoe plants. The dry matter content of mistletoe plant from Pyrus communis was higher than the others. The ash and crude protein content of mistletoe plant from Populus alba was higher than the others. The neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber contents of mistletoe plant from Pyrus communis were higher the others whereas condensed content of the mistletoe plant from Pyrus communis was higher than that of Salix alba. The potential gas production (A), OMD and ME contents of mistletoe plants obtained from Salix alba and Pyrus communis were higher than those of mistletoe plants obtained from Populus alba and Robinia pseudoecaccia. The gas production rate of mistletoe plant obtained from Salix alba was higher than that of mistletoe plant obtained from Robinia pseudoecaccia. In conclusion, the host had a significant effect on the chemical composition and potential nutritive value of mistletoe plants
One of the most important parameters in designing aircraft fuel system is to calculate fuel temperature in critical areas of the fuel system under aircraft’s different operational conditions. Fuel heating inside the aircraft’s tanks depends on fuel consumption, type of insulation being used in the fuel system, time and altitude of flight. Some of the potential reasons of increase or decrease in fuel temperature are heat generation by pumps and generators, heat exchange between the fuel and the air inside and outside the aircraft, fueling temperature, etc. fuel system’s Equipments are functional within a specific range of fuel temperature. Therefore, fuel temperature at the aircraft’s different operational conditions needs to be calculated, and then, equipments with proper thermal endurance must be selected for the fuel system. In this study, by applying numerical method, temperature variations of the fuel at critical points of the fuel system are calculated for an airplane having 5 tanks, in summer and winter conditions. The presented method is applicable for thermal calculation of fuel system in any other aircraft. According to the results, fuel temperature lies within the range of -50 to 60 . Hence, when selecting equipments, this temperature range must be considered.
Utilizing abrasive diamond wire is common in the production of natural stone blocks. The success of this method depends on the cutting capacity and level of wear present in the diamond beads. This study aimed to determine the effects of bench geometry on cutting performance in natural stone production with diamond wire. The study was carried out through the detailed analysis of two different natural stone enterprises. The results indicated that as bench height/panel width (h/l) ratio increased, cutting capacity decreased; there were exponential relationships between the cutting area, hourly cutting capacity and the level of wear in the diamond beads—which were all affected by the bench geometry selection. The estimation with ANN analysis gives high correlation coefficients (R2 = 0.9168-0.941) between the predicted and measured cutting capacity and the diamond bead wear values.
In myocardial infarction detection, texture features analysis has become a crucial method of diagnosis. As speckle noise contains useful information, we have placed a particular emphasis on avoiding de-noising operations by utilizing the concept of the featured image and Hierarchical Data Format (HDF5) image files. Masks with different sizes scan the images and transform them in featured images which are reconstructed images where the value of each pixel is replaced by various statistical values computed in k × k (k = 3, 5, 7) masks. Pixels distribution and interpixel relationships were analyzed by using the discriminative power of five features, including mean, kurtosis, skewness, contrast and fractal dimension. The featured images of the end-systole (ES) and end-diastole (ED) phases, for healthy and infarcted myocardium were used. This current study has been conducted on forty six images and the results show the tandems of contrast – standard deviation and contrast – energy featured images as being the best tools to distinguish myocardial infarction.

Further part of the paper describes an approach of public service operators within individual contract forms.
Complex structure of dyes makes them more stable and more difficult to remove from water and wastewater. Consequently, it is essential to remove dyes from colored wastewaters before discharging them into the water resources. At present study, activated carbon obtained from Pistachio-nut shell ash was used as a cheap adsorbent for the removal of Methylene blue (MB) dye from synthetic solutions. In this laboratory study, the effect of critical parameters such as initial concentration of dye, reaction time, adsorbent dosage and pH was investigated. In addition, the adsorption parameters were determined based on Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. Maximum adsorption capacity of the activated carbon obtained from Pistachio-nut shell ash was 155.6 mg/g at pH 8, initial concentration of 80 mg/L and 20±2◦C temperature, when 97.25% of the dye was removed. Also, it was found that the data fitted to Freundlich (R2=0.9522) better than Langmuir (R2=0.8934) model. According to the findings of this study, Pistachio-nut shell ash could be used for effective removal of MB as a cationic dye from colored wastewaters.
Rapid advances in industrial information integration methods have prompted incredible growth in the use of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. ERP systems enable the rigid integration of all necessary business functions into a single system. They have emerged as the core of successful information management and the enterprise backbone of organizations. Different methodologies have been proposed to evaluate ERP success. Some researchers have emphasized the need for evaluating the ERP success from the viewpoints of several stakeholder groups. The main purpose of this study is to determine whether differences exist between IS staff and end-users concerning their evaluation of the success of their Enterprise System. The research methodology is based on the model discussed in relevant literature enterprise system success model. The results show that there is no difference between two groups which is conflicted with the previous studies. More researches are needed to consider other stakeholders in organizations or consider other measures which may results in differences between groups.
Patients factors associated with increased pre-endoscopic anxiety should be determined when making decisions on sedation regimen during esophago-gastropduodenoscopy. A quantitative cross-sectional study including 240 outpatients was designed. Collected data utilized a structured questionnaire and the Spielberger State and Trait Inventory. A mean score of (≥ 40) was taken to be a severe and clinically significant anxiety. Descriptive statistics and the relation of the Spielberger State and Trait Inventory were evaluated using t-test and one-way analysis of variance. Relations between age and state-trait anxiety evaluated using Pearson’s correlation coefficient found most patients (30.8%) were 31-40 years old (40.36 ± 12.30). Preprocedurally, state anxiety levels were severe and clinically significant (43.57 ± 10.15), trait anxiety levels were high (39.05 ± 7.37). High statistical reverse relation (p = -0.181; p <0.005) between age and state anxiety along with high levels of trait anxiety associated with social/cultural variables were evident. Further findings show: severe and clinically significant state anxiety for women; no prior endoscopy history, the need of pre-endoscopic information, and patients’ preference for sedation regimen during procedures. 48 patients (20.87%) exhibited severe and clinically significant state, 34 (24.47%) had trait anxiety to which conscious sedation was not applied during procedures.
Transliteration – is the process of representing the graphic signs of one writing system by the graphic signs of another script (Dictionary of Language and Linguistics, Hartmann and Stork, Applies Science Publishers, 1976). Nowadays there are some types of transliteration used in linguistics. They are scientific transliteration, practical transliteration and expanded transliteration according to «http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/». Transliteration is frequently used especially in writing geographic denominations, personal names (onyms) etc. Proper names (onyms) of all languages must sound similarly in translated works as well as in scientific projects and works written in mother tongue, because we can get introduced with the nation, its history, culture, traditions and other spiritual values through the onyms of that nation. Therefore it is necessary to systematize the different transliterations of onyms of foreign languages. This article is dedicated to the problem of making the project of transliterating Kazakh onyms into Arabic. In order to achieve this goal we use scientific or practical types of transliteration. Because in this type of transliteration provides easy reading and writing source language’s texts in the target language without any diacritical symbols, it is limited by the target language’s alphabetic system.
We investigated the developmental changes of the information parameters of the renal tubular system which displays the level of adaptive resources. As well we assessed the level of mitotic and apoptotic activity in the renal tubular system . It was found a cyclic variation of the studied parameters. Cyclical changes of apoptotic and mitotic activity were detected. Cycles fluctuations of values of these parameters coincide with the identified oscillation cycle of information parameters. Ontogenetic periods characterized by low values of information morphological organization are critical, because at this time organs are characterized by a low level of regenerative-adaptability recourses and less number of structural elements serving as a potential reserve.
This paper analyses time-consistency of decisions to visit the gym when individuals are asked to choose between their current fixed fee and a menu of three new variable fees, according to three different time commitments of permanency. \nWe conduct a natural experiment on 290 members of a health-club, located in Barcelona from December 2009 to May 2011. Subjects are offered to switch from their former flat fee to a multi-part tariff one in June 2010. For the study period we collect for each subject: former fee, new fee (if changing), number of attendances per month during the study period, gender and age.\nWe first look for consistency in their pre-decision behavior by comparing their flat fee with the one-day-entrance ticket option. Second, we measure consistency in their decision of changing or not to the new menu of fees according to their pre- decision number of attendances.\nFinally we observe post decision attendances in order to detect behavioral biases derived from the change in the structure of the contract.\nWe find a relation between expected attendance estimation’s accuracy and level of consistency. We observe statistically significant behavioral bias for switchers that show a tendency to underuse their “free” units of their multi-part tariff.
THE COMPARISON OF EFFICIENCY OF NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL HYPOXIC TRAINING IN THE ELITE SPORT \nProf. Radziejowski Pawel , D.Sci. (Biology) 1,2, \nProf. Radziejowska Maria , D.Sci. (Biology) 1,2\n1 Higher Education and Therapy School in Poznan, Szczecin; Poland\n2 Czestochowa University of Technology, Częstochowa; Poland\nIntroduction. The adaptation to hypobaric hypoxic hypoxia in mountain climate conditions is traditionally used in the system of training of high-qualified athletes. Also, in modern sport various modifications of mountain climate found their application, e. g. normobaric interval hypoxic training. Therefore, the analysis of similarities and differences in compensation mechanisms of natural hypoxic hypoxia in hypobaric (mountain) conditions and artificial IHT conducted on the sea level could present great scientific interest. \nThe purpose of the work was to compare the efficiency of adaptation to hypoxic hypoxia during training session in the mountains and on the sea level in the course of IHT. \nMethods. The subject of our analysis was the data of functional state and level of general and special work capacity of the female athletes of high qualification, specialized in sports requiring great stamina. The first group of athletes lived and trained at the height of 2100 metres above the sea level (n=29) for 30 days. The second group of athletes took the month course of IHT consisting of 24 sessions with 9-11% of oxygen in the gas mixture inhaled (n=33). \nResults. The research analysis indicated that the function of compensation mechanisms of hypoxic hypoxia of athletes during their stay in mountain climate conditions and in the conditions of normobaric IHT were of similar nature which caused positive changes in the state of functional respiratory system and general working capacity. However, special working capacity increased reliably higher (p<0,05) in the group having taken the course of IHT. \nConclusion. The IHT method which is used outside planned sport training in the dormant state, when the athlete body is affected by only one type of hypoxia – hypoxic hypoxia, could serve as an effective substitution for training in mountain climate conditions. The difference in the nature of effects of hypoxic hypoxia and hypoxia in IHT allows the achievement of the same results as during training sessions in the mountains without interference in the planned training process, substantial travelling expenditures and necessity to reach the level of acclimatization required for appropriate training. \nKey words: hypobaric hypoxic hypoxia, normobaric interval hypoxic training, preparation of elite athletes.
The perception of university from the perspective of a secondary school student is an unusual area of study, and it is relevant to analyze it to improve results. That perception creates factors of choice, since students form their preferences for universities from variables perceived months before enrollment. The focus of this research is to ascertain which factors influence future university students when choosing a higher education institution. It takes into account the factors considered important by the college student. In this context, we have conducted a quantitative study to determine the factors that affect students regarding access to university. The study provides information on the formation of student preferences and clusters factors of importance, through econometric and factorial analysis, We demonstrate that, based on some variables (knowledge, teaching, methodology, jobs, services, advertising and information or campus), we can set the decision factors as sex, type of centre of origin and socioeconomic status.
Abstract\n\nThe metallic nanoparticles have great attention of Chemists, Physists, Biologists and Engineers. Because of their unique optical, electrical, and photothermal properties, it can be used for development of new area of researches. In this study we synthesized bimetallic silver and gold hybrid clustery nanoparticles using eco-friendly route biomaterial orange peel extract as reductant and stabilized. The chemical solutions of silver nitrate (AgNO3) and chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) were used and treated with orange peel extract resulting in rapid formation of stable hybrid clustery nanoparticles of spectacular morphologies. The particles growth is monitored by UV-vis spectrophotometer, the average size of the particles is about 138 nm. The synthesized sample was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and EDS. Furthermore, we reported in this work that this green biogenic approach at room temperature is an alternative to chemical synthesis with no consuming of high energy, simple, clean, inexpensive and non-toxic (i.e. environmentally friendly ).\n The hybrid bimetallic clustery nanoparticles antibacterial activity effect has been investigated. This showed that the nanoparticle suspension possesses highly effective antibacterial activity towards Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms, which these results may support the future of nano medicine.
Re-integration of Kazakhstan with Russia within the Eurasian Union must be \nconsidered not only from the Eurasianist / Pro-Russian position, but, it also has to \nbe analyzed from the European skepticism and Kazakh nationalist viewpoint. Only \nthe historical and nationalist approach could explain the true nature of RussianKazakh integration relations. The Customs Union and the Common Economic \nSpace should not compromise the political sovereignty of any member countries in \nany way. Of course Russia will be a dominant party in the newly shaping structure. \nAll decision-making processes are based first of all in Moscow. Kazakh politicians, \nacademicians and businessmen should always defend the national interests of the \nKazakhs. İf not, this geopolitical project may lead to the same negative historical \nresults as was the collapse of the USSR. In this paper the authors tired to prove that \nfor now the Eurasian integration with Russia is not so necessary for Kazakhstan in\nterms of national economy. The results of the researhc suggest that Kazakhstan \nloses economically and politically to Russia in what concerns desision-making, \ncontrol, regulation and institutionalization.
The immune reconstitution syndrome secondary to discontinuation of anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha\nis a rare entity with only few case-reports in literature.\nA 54 years old man presented with a month of dry cough, dyspnoea, asthenia. Recently was\nadministered infliximab, for psoriasis. A standard chest radiography showed small nodules disseminated\n(miliary aspect) confirmed by a thoracic computed-tomography. The sputum smears for mycobacterium\ntuberculosis were negative. Considering the associated risk factor, the diagnosis of miliary tuberculosis\nwas firstly suggested and an antituberculous treatment was started. One month after favorable evolution,\nthe patient described worsening of symptoms,with newly developed lung lesions,with positive sputum\nsmear and a developed left supra-clavicle lymphnode Was excluded suboptimal drug concentration, lack of\nadherence to therapy, new opportunistic infections, drug resistance and drug side effects. Immune\nrestoration disease is a diagnosis of exclusion. The initially favorable evolution, together with worsening of\nsymptoms after one month and the fact that Tuberculin skin test turned positive can sustain this diagnostic\nhypothesis.\nThere is no gold standard diagnostic test that can confirm diagnosis. Creating a clinical case-definition\nwith sufficient sensitivity and specificity could help clinicians to improve the diagnostic and the\nmanagement of immune reconstruction disorder in patients with tuberculosis.
Current web services development tools are more sophisticated, although easy to use; thereof leverage the creation of more web services. Due to the dynamic nature of web services, web services are being created and updated frequently. This multiplication of web services cannot be easily controlled by human being due to their complexity sequel to intricacy used to produce the composition scheme. Composition of web services is a way of combining several web services to produce a new composite web service, which can satisfy the client requirements. In this paper, we present an approach for automatic web service composition which imposes reputation constraints on the components services. Petri Nets and Dioid algebra are both combined to propose a model and evaluate the performance of the discrete events system. Then, a routing policy is clearly defined to fully arbitrate conflicts. The proposed method performs composition based on reputation and allows selection of services with the best reputation. A case study is presented to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed method.

This paper exposes two procedures in order to develop a refined analytical model which describes\nthe behavior of a linear switched reluctance motor. The first approach is based on the flux linkage and the second\non the inductance, both versus position and current. Taking into account the non-linearity of the magnetic circuit,\nmodels are expressed by either Fourier series or polynomials where the only first three components are\nconsidered. The results of these analytical approaches are compared with those obtained using finite element\nmethods (FEM).
