für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
HIV/AIDS is an epidemic that affects every part of the globe. To reduce the mortality and morbidity rate caused by the HIV/AIDS epidemic different initiatives were made by international organizations and donors. The term treatment adherence refers to the ability of the patient to develop and follow a plan of behavioral and attitudinal change that ultimately serves to empower patients to improve health and self-manage a given illness.Non-adherence by patients on ART has serious consequence both on the individual as well as the society. HIV replicates and mutates (changes its character, including its ability to resist drugs) at a very high rate. ····· 1036199926

Assessing the Demand of River Bank Recreational Facilities

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Recreation is an area of urban activity, not an easily defined homogenous entity. It rather consists of a diversity of activities undertaken at a wide range of locations. Recreation is a very necessary and an inseparable part of a society. A city may be blessed with large number of industries, residential neighborhoods, business-establishments, shopping facilities, and so on. But it falls short of its highest possibilities if it does not have those qualities of living that represent a more fruitful and happy life for its people. Recreation is one of those qualities of a city that make living happier. As said by Lehman, there is nothing in the city plan that may contribute more vitally to this richer life of the people than appropriate provision for recreation (Lehman, 1931). ····· 1036199862

Various Animal Models To Check Learning And Memory - A Review

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Learning is defined as the acquisition of information and skills or in other words it is the process by which new information is acquired. Subsequent retention of the information is called memory, which is the process by which acquired knowledge is retained. But oxidative stress and vascular dysfunction are recognized as important contributing factors in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer s disease (AD) and other dementia of vascular origin. AD is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with loss of neurons in distinct brain areas and cord and AD shows cognitive dysfunctions. Deficit in learning and memory have long been recognized as severe and consistent neurological disorder associated with numerous psychiatric and neurodegenerative states. Moreover, a marked compromise of processes has become an integral part of aging. Normal aging is associated with a decline in functions such as sensory and motor performance, and at times, this decline is accompanied by cognitive dysfunction So, the present study is therefore focused on discussing different animal models for Learning and memory. These animal models provide help for measure cognitive functions in animals. ····· 1036199731

Purpose of the study: To evaluate customer service quality among clients purchasing precast concrete products from a manufacturing company. Problem Statement: Any buoyant market facing shortages of material and skills, like the precast concrete within the construction industry, is prone to being infiltrated by companies from other countries. Competition builds on the assumption that no buyer or seller has had the power to influence the market conditions to their own benefit. Moreover, all buyers and sellers have been in the fortunate position of having perfect information about the costs and demand situation and all have been free to enter and leave the marketplace. Methodology: The research design encompassed both a review of the literature and an empirical study. A quantitative methodological paradigm was used. A sample of 260 customers which comprised general contractors, government institutions, civil consultants and end-users operating in Gauteng province was used in the study. The coefficient alpha reliability ranged from 0.70 to 0.815 which was considered satisfactory. Findings:A factor analysis procedure revealed five service quality dimensions. ····· 1036199600

Community Participation in Education:Challenges and Opportunities

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Community participation in education is a complex issue. It is heterogeneous in nature because it differs from context to context. The process of participation is fraught with various challenges and issues due to its diverse nature. However, despite of all this, concept of community participation has become a catchy word in the present day. Researchers and educationists have found it to be one of the major factors in determining and defining the quality of education. Parents in the present century are becoming increasingly aware of the need to participate actively in children s their education. The process of community participation in education is based on the presumption that education is a shared responsibility. It is an activity in collaboration rather an activity in isolation. The need of partnership between schools, families and communities is the key to improve educational practices and services. ····· 1036199339

Genetic Immunization & Cytokine Immunomodulation

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In chronic parasitic infections, the interplay between the host and the parasite suggests immuno-suppressive mechanisms developed by the parasite. Echinococcus granulosus, a tiny tapeworm that among other helminthes, favors the induction of T helper type 2 responses which are less severe and less destructive than T helper type 1 responses. This study aimed at exploring the immune response generated in BALB/c mice using genetic immunization technology. Immuno-modulation by the co-delivery of different cytokine genes (IFN- , IL-12, IL-4) was also investigated. Immunization by antigen B or its second subunit (EgAgB8/2) revealed dominated T helper type 2 cytokine response, IgG3 humoral response, low splenocyte cell proliferation, and low CD8+ cell count. However, restored CD8+ cell count, high splenocyte cell proliferation, and high expression of IFN- cytokine in IFN- gene co-immunized mice indicates the efficiency of cytokine gene immuno-modulation in skewing the response toward T helper type 1. ····· 1036199085

Evaluation of Climatic Effects on Pavement Performance using MEPDG

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Over the past decade, the design of both flexible and rigid pavements has been fundamentally evolving. This evolution includes the replacement of empirical design procedures, mainly based on different editions of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Design Guide with mechanistic-based procedures, such as the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). This book includes my master thesis that I carried out at University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. This book attempts to explore the implementation of the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) in Canada. The content of this book can be categorized into two parts. First, it explores the effects of climate on pavement performance using the MEPDG. Second, it compares the MEPDG with AASHTO 1993 based Alberta Transportation Pavement Design (ATPD) method. This book presents three novel methods to evaluate the quality of the climatic data files used for the MEPDG. This book also demonstrates the sensitivity of climatic factors on pavement performance. A typical flexible pavement section and climatic data files of different Canadian weather stations were used in this study. ····· 1036198846

Concrete Strength Assessment using Piezo-transducers

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In the recent past, several non-destructive evaluation (NDE) methods have been considered for structural health monitoring purposes, each having its own advantages as well as limitations. The project focused on evaluating the use of underlying PZT-structure electromechanical interaction for impedance based strength characterization of concrete. This was done by experimentally evaluating and deriving a correlation between resonant frequencies of a PZT patch, when attached to a concrete specimen, with the strength of the concrete. With an objective to the extent that the resulting calibration curve (mathematical equation) could be used to estimate strength of any unknown concrete structure, without requiring any prior information governing its phenomenological nature. The project was reported to be the first of its kind, as an effort to correlate the second and third resonant frequencies with the compressive strength of the structure. ····· 1036198796

Exploration of Solid Compounds by Spectroscopic Methods

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Most of the naturally occuring solid compounds such as minerals, plants, herbs etc., are inorganic in nature.They exhibit different colours due to the presence of transition metal ions.Even though we know the composition of some minerals we can`t understood the properties exhibited by them which are useful in many applications such as medicine ,chemical industries,agriculture etc.For the characterisation of a mineral its structure is very important which determines the physical and chemical properties of the mineral. In order to explore the nature of metal ion and its bonding with surrounding ligands in a mineral, the spectroscopic techniques such as Electron Paramagnetic Resonance(EPR), Optical absorption and Near infrared spectroscopy(NIR) are used in the present study.This book covers the detailed investigations made on the minerals like dolamite, covellite which are obtained from Rayalaseema Zone of Andhra Pradesh, India and Coquimbo region, Chile respectively. ····· 1036192570

Spread Spectrum System

A major issue of concern in the study of digital communication is to provide a form of secure and interference free communication system in a hostile environment. This requirement is catered by a class of signaling techniques known as SPREAD SPECTRUM MODULATION. In this technique the transmitted signal spectrum is spread over a frequency range much greater than the message bandwidth . The spectrum is accomplished before the transmission through the use of code that is independent of data sequence. The same code is used in the receiver (operating synchronously with the transmitter) to de-spread the received signal so that the original message is recovered. ····· 1036192461

Indigenous Knowledge in Adaptation to Climate Change and Variability

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Climate change is one of the most humanity s pressing challenges in 21st century. So far, adaptation has been seen as a viable option for responding effectively and equitably with anticipated negative impacts of climate change. It is unquestionable fact that local people have a rich understanding of their resource base and are experts at adapting to changes over time. Over centuries local communities in many less developed countries and Tanzania in particular through their Indigenous Knowledge (IK) have built up knowledge about changes in their environment and developed novel ways of adapting to these changes. IK has to a large extent provided local communities with the ability to survive and produce under risk due to, amongst others, climate change, environmental constraints, food insecurity and incomplete market structure. In light of the above situations, a better understanding of the way local communities have adjusted with past and present climate change and variability is indispensable. This book, therefore, sets out to contribute to the emerging body of knowledge on IK in climate change perspective particularly on its role in adaptation to climate change and variability. ····· 1036192337

The post Nice process and Institutional Reforms of the European Union

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The history of institutional change in the European Union shows that its motivations and dynamics vary widely over time. It is nevertheless possible to identify three permanent factors of change, whose respective weight varies, and to identify the conditions under which they may influence the negotiations. In the history of the EU, a substantial number of Intergovernmental Conferences (IGCs) have taken place, five of which were held between 1986 and 2000. Gradually a certain tradition for setting up IGCs has emerged, one that encompasses procedural rules and norms as well as informal and established practices. It was argued that a proper analysis of treaty reform processes in the EU requires a dynamic perspective on decision-making, going beyond the individual IGC as a moment of formal treaty reform. The decision-making process needs to be situated in a distinct historical, institutional, and contextual setting, revealing how actors are embedded in a web of structuring elements. ····· 1036192117

Kerberos Authentication Protocol

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Kerberos has two purposes: security and authentication. On most computer systems, a password is used to prove a user`s identity on a distributed network system, like Athena, this password must be transmitted over the network, from the workstation being used, to any other machines containing files or programs the user wants access to. Because this password is the one secret piece of information that identifies a user, anyone knowing a user`s password can effectively be that user on Athena, reading their files, sending mail as that user, etc. Obviously, it is therefore necessary to prevent anyone from intercepting or eavesdropping on the transmitted password. In addition, it is necessary to provide a means of authenticating users: any time a user requests a service, such as mail on, they must prove their identity. This is done with Kerberos, and this is why we get our mail and no e else`s ····· 1036192116

Gene therapy considered to be a technology based on advancements in molecular biology originally conceived as an approach to treat autosomal recessive Mendelian disorders, now being applied to a broad range of acquired conditions such as cancers, infections and degenerative disorders. At the beginning of the nineties, much of this young field was based on a relatively simple concept: a deficient function can be replaced with an artificial gene. For twenty years now, gene therapists have been learning how wide the gap is between a concept and its practical reality. It will be of interest over the next few years to analyze whether clinical results will reach the expectations in this domain bearing in mind the lessons of gene therapy for cancer. The treatment of cancer, makes up almost 60 to 70% of the gene therapy trials worldwide, and includes some very elegant approaches. ····· 1036191952
