ABSTRACT: Acid/base chemistry is an intriguing topic that still constitutes a challenge for computational chemistry. While estimating the acid dissociation constant (or pKa) could shed light on many chemistry processes, especially in the fields of biochemistry and geochemistry, evaluating the relative stability between protonated and nonprotonated species is often very di ffi cult. Indeed, a ...

Abstract Living birds (~9500 species) are grouped into 20–28 orders, comprising the Subclass Neornithes of the Class Aves. With few exceptions, molecular phylogenetic analyses have sup-ported two morphologica l divisions within Neornithes, Paleognathae (ratites and tinamous) and Neognathae (a ll other living birds). Within Neogna tha e, there is uni-versal support for the recognition of two ...

1. In your opinion, what is the future of the computing and the field of distributed systems? 2. Use your own words to explain the differences between distributed systems, multiprocessors, and network systems. 3. Calculate (a) node degree, (b) diameter, (c) bisection width, and (d) the number of links for an nx n2-d mesh, an n x n2- d torus, and an n-dimensional hypercube.

Spatial ability the ability to generate, retain, — retrieve, and transform structured visual images (Casey, Nuttal, & Pezaris, 1997, 2001) is a con-— sistent predictor of student entry into science, tech-nology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines and careers, even after controlling for verbal and mathematical abilities (Benbow, Lubinski, Shea, & Eftekhari-Sanjani, 2000; Shea ...

By John J. Gelegenis1 and Sergio E. Serrano2 ABSTRACT: The linear Muskingum method continues to be a simple and popular procedure for river flood routing. An alternative algorithm for the numerical estimation of the Muskingum routing parameters is presented. Fully implicit and semi-implicit finite-difference schemes are compared for accuracy with respect to the tradi-tional graphical procedure ...

Abstract More and more images have been generated in digital form around the world. There is a growing interest in 1nding images in large collections or from remote databases. In order to 1nd an image, the image has to be described or represented by certain features. Shape is an important visual feature of an image. Searching for images using shape features has attracted much attention. There ...

Sergio E. Serrano1 Abstract: Using approximate analytical solutions of the nonlinear Richard’s equation, simple models for the simulation of water content, pressure head, hydraulic head, and infiltration rate profiles, subject to either constant conditions, time-variable rainfall, or redistribution, are developed. New practical expressions for the time to ponding and infiltration rate at the ...

Abstract: Harnessing remote computation power over the Internet without the need for expensive hardware and making costly services available to mass users at a marginal cost gave birth to the concept of cloud computing. This survey provides a concise overview of the growing confluence of cloud computing, edge intelligence, and AI, with a focus on their revolutionary impact on the Internet of ...

If the publication decisions of journals are a function of the statistical significance of re-search findings, the published literature may suffer from “publication bias.” This paper describes a method for detecting publication bias. We point out that to achieve statisti-cal significance, the effect size must be larger in small samples. If publications tend to be biased against ...
