can anybody think of any world events that changed information systems?
Solution
Systems range from very simple to very complex. There are numerous types of systems. For
example, there are biological systems, mechanical systems, human/mechanical systems,
ecological systems, and social systems.
Following are some technologies that will change technology:-
- 3D printers,
- sensor networks,
- virtual humans
technologies under development now will drastically change our world in the decade to come.
Internet Things:-
We have passed the threshold where more things are connected to the Internet than people. The
transition to IPV6 also supports seemingly limitless connectivity.
Sensor Network:-
Nowadays this technology grows very fast by using this we can track song pollution, air
pollution and we also can track temperature. This technology is growing day by day and many
companies are coming with new ideas related to sensor networks.
Not just Big data, but zettabyte :-
About 5 exabytes of unique information were created in 2008. That\'s 1 billion DVDs. Fast
forward three years and we are creating 1.2 zettabytes, with one zettabyte equal to 1,024
exabytes. \"This is the same as every person on Earth tweeting for 100 years or 125 million years
of your favorite one-hour TV show,\" says Evans. Our love of high-definition video accounts for
much of the increase.
Yes, there are many other things too but I tried to tell you things I know..

Smart cities: how computers are changing our world for the betterRoberto Siagri
Introduction
The world is flat, hot and crowded, as Thomas Friedman says in his last book. Luckily, we can also say that it is getting more and more intelligent. Our world is increasingly interconnected and increasingly able to talk to us: people, systems and objects can communicate and interact with one another in completely new ways. Now we have the means to measure, hear and see instantaneously the state of all things. When all things, including processes and working methods, are intelligent, we will be able to respond to changing conditions with more speed and more focus, and make more precise forecasting which in turn will lead to optimization of future events. This ongoing transformation has given birth to the concept of Smart Cities, cities that are able to take action and improve the quality of life of their inhabitants, reconciling it with the needs of trades, factories, service industries and institutions by means of an innovative and pervasive use of digital technologies.

Effects of protease inhibitors in the treatment of secondary infections in HIV-positive patients
Find the average complication rate in the two groups of HIV-positive patients. Protease
inhibitors (PIs) arc used in the treatment of infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
A military hospital provides unlimited access to a full spectrum of HIV medications. Has this
access reduced admissions caused by secondary infections? In particular, has unlimited access to
PIs reduced the annual admission rate of patients with pulmonary complications? The number of
admissions for HIV. separated into patients with and those without pulmonary complications,
was obtained for the 4 years (1992-1995) before access to PIs and for the 2 years (1996-1997)
after PIs became available.
Solution
The complication rate before PIs are available is: number of complications in the four years/total
number of patients in those four years
=194/485=0.4
The complication rate before PIs are available is: number of complications in the two years/total
number of patients in those two years
=25/92=0.27
Thus average complication rate is: (0.4+0.27)/2=0.335.

Describe the process (step by step) how a glucose molecule is absorb.pdfarchiesshop48
Describe the process (step by step) how a glucose molecule is absorbed from the lumen of the
intestine to the blood. Include what energy drives this process. Then explain how researchers like
Pia Roder were able to use radioactivity to determine where and how the transporters functioned.
(The answer must be in a long paragraph form)
Solution
Carbohydrates initially undergo chemical digestion by salivary amylases result in formation of
simple monomer sugars of \"glucose\" etc finally absorbed directly into the sublingual
circulation. Later mixed food material enters into the pharynx from mouth due to the peristaltic
movement of the visceral smooth muscles finally enters into the stomach
Disaccharidases are the enzymes secreted from the brush border cells of intestine. These
enzymes are sucrase, maltase, and lactase. These enzymes acts on disachraides such as maltose,
sucrose and lactose and digests them into monomer sugar units of glucose & galactose. Simple,
soluble and absorbable monomer glucose molecules \"diffused\" (diffusion) into the blood
portals finally food chyme enters into the large intestine for reabsorption.
It has clearly observed the \"sodium -glucose symport\" enable the transport of glucose
monomers after digestion into the intestinal epithelial cells via microvilli (improve absorption)
finally into the interstitial space followed by movement of glucose into the blood down the
concentration gradient (crossing basilar membrane). Primary active transport using Na+-K+-
ATPase improves movement sodium inside and potassium outside using energy followed by
building up of interstitial sodium concentration. Sodium –glucose symport has considered as
secondary active transport as it is a co-transporter.
P V Roder analysis of \"glucose transporter functions\" via radioactivity principle:
The sodium-glucose linked transporter (SGLTs, a co-transporter) uses the energy generated by
the ATPase pump through the downhill sodium ion gradient for the glucose transportation across
the apical membrane (against the glucose gradient). SGLTs are an example of secondary active
transport. The glucose transporters (GLUT) present in the basolateral membrane now allow the
glucose transport into the peritubular capillaries. Inhibition of the Na+/K+/ATPase fails to
generate energy required for the SGLT secondary transporters, which inhibits glucose uptake.
Sugars such as glucose, galactose and free amino acid (alanine) uptake into the microvilli
epithelial cells is based on sodium mediated cotransport whereas fructose cannot be transported
by sodium mediated transport during absorption after digestion. H+ mediated oligopeptide
transport is present in gut epithelium.
Scientist PV Roder has analyzed the function of SGLTs and GLUTs in the apical membrane
using “radiotracer glucose gavage“, in which mice was taken of two different types such as
“Sglt1 expressing wild type” and ” mice with sglt1-knockout” finally C14 radioactive tracing
performed for the moveme.

Describe how rock fossils are formed.
What are two different ways that geologists can use to age fossils?
Solution
1). Permineralization or petrification is the most typical form of fossil formation. The soft tissues
of the organism decays within the sediment, leaving behind the hard structures such as skeleton.
Skeleton contains minerals, when water seeps into the skeleton, the minerals are dissolved in the
water and form crystals within the spaces of remains. This crystallization process turns the
skeleton remains into hard structures while encasing the sedimentary rock..

GPRS: General Packet Radio Service
It is a mobile data service available to users of GSM mobile phones. It is often described as
\"2.5G“.
GPRS is packet-switched which means that multiple users share the same transmission channel,
only transmitting when they have data to send.
GPRS provides moderate speed data transfer, by allocating unused cell bandwidth to transmit
data.Poor bit rate in busy cells.Usually, GPRS data is billed per kilobytes of information
transceived.

Impact on Society:
Since the introduction of mobile phones, concerns (both scientific and public) have been raised
about the potential health impacts from regular use.But by 2008, American mobile phones
transmitted and received more text messages than phone calls.Numerous studies have reported
no significant relationship between mobile phone use and health, but the effect of mobile phone
usage on health continues to be an area of public concern.
For example, at the request of some of their customers, Verizon created usage controls that meter
service and can switch phones off, so that children could get some sleep.There have also been
attempts to limit use by persons operating moving trains or automobiles, coaches when writing to
potential players on their teams, and movie theater audiences. By one measure, near.

3.35. Left-handedness. Left-handedness can be an inconvenience for a .pdfarchiesshop48
3.35. Left-handedness. Left-handedness can be an inconvenience for a portion of the human
population and is a study of interest to researchers throughout the world. About 6-10% of the
human population exhibits left-handedness. Studies suggest that left-handedness is due to
genetics rather than environmental causes. It is found to be more common in males (about 8-
12%) than females (about 5-9%), and also that the probability of left-handedness increases when
a mother or father has it. The table (McManus, 1991; Table 4, page 262) provides empirical
probabilities of a child being left-handed depending on gender and maternal/paternal handedness.
Using these probabilities, answer parts (a-c) (a) Assume that parents are both right-handed. What
is the probability that their child is right-handed? Probabilities of a son or daughter are assumed
equal. (b) Ann is left-handed and expecting a son. No information about handedness of baby\'s
father Ben is available, but it is known that Ben\'s parents are right-handed. What is the
probability that the baby is going be left-handed. (c) Adam\'s parents are both right-handed.
Adam\'s daughter Bethany and wife Claudia are both left-handed. What is the probability that
Adam is right-handed. Does Claudia\'s handedness matter?
Solution
a) if the parents are both right handed
Probability ther child ( can be son or daughter) is righ handed = (0.8951+0.9137) / 2 = 0.9044
b)
ben could be left or right
if ben is left with ann that is left
probability will be (left) = 0.2940
if ben is right with ann that is left
probabilty that the son will be (left) = 0.2150
PROBABILITY THAT THE BABY (SON) IS GOING TO BE LEFT-HANDED WILL BE =
0.2150+0.2940 = 0.509
c)
probability that adam is right handed will be 0.8951.

Why is it recommended that you use the broth (regardless of medium) .pdfarchiesshop48
Why is it recommended that you use the broth (regardless of medium) with the most growth to
serve as the \"standard\" for scoring a \"3\"? (3 for adundant growth)
Why is it important to use the uninoculated controls for each medium to serve as the \"standard\"
for scorinh a \"0\" in yheir respective tubes? (0 for no growth)
Suppose afte performing this experiment, you examine the growth of two different organisms in
Medium X. Both show growth and Organism 1 has produced less turnidity than organism 2.
Explain how it could be possible that Organism 1\'s needs are actually better supplied by the
medium than organism 2\', yet there is less turbidity?
What is the biochemical basis for the spectrum of fastidousness seen in the mircobiol world?
That is, why are some organism fastidious and others are nonfastidious?
What are some consequences of leabing a stain on a bacterial smear too long? (over staining)
What are some conswquences of not leabing a stain on a smear long enough? (under-staining)
Consider a coccus and a rod of equal volume.
Which is more likely to survive in a dry enviroment? Why?
Which would be better adapeted to a moist enviroment? why?
Solution
1. Broth with the maximum growth is used as a standard for measuring growth because broth
helps in maintaining optimal concentration of bacteria. Broth results in uniform growth on solid
media. Additionally growth can be measured with respect to turbidity either with the help of
spectrophotometer or through visual examination of the broth.
2. Uninoculated medium serves as a negative control. It is used as an indicator for testing the
sterility of the medium. In case any growth is present on uninoculated medium, it is an indicator
of contanimation.
3. There might be various reasons for less turbidity shown by organism 1. Optimum temperature
might not be maintained for Organism 1, which leads to slower growth. The growth rate of
organism 1 may be less than organism 2. It might also be possible that there is production of
inhibitory substances by organism 2 which are interfering with the growth of organism 1.
4. Some microorganisms are fastidious as they lack the metabolic pathways required to
syntheisze certain nutrients. Therefore they rely on particular media for fulfilling their complex
nutritional reqirements.
5. Overstaining a bacterial smear will cause cell wall disruption as a result of which the cell
looses its true morphological characteristics.
6. Understaining will cause false Gram negative results. In case of simple staining understaining
will cause difficulty in observing the cells.
7. Cocci are more likely to survive in a dry environment because they have a lower surface area
to volume ratio which causes them to dehydrate slowly.
8. Rods are more likely to survive in a moist environment because they have a larfer surface area
to volume ratio due to which they can easily exchange materials with their surroundings..

Solution
Evaluation can be made of the followin jobs in the below mentioned ways
Sales representative: The representatives should be evaluated on how well they are able to deal
with the consumers and their ability to close the deal. The whole process should be evaluated
under which the sales representative is working, rather than just evaluating the results or the
targets. The representatives should be evaluated on team work, coordination and cooperative

what is testosterones role in the mestrual cycle ?
Solution
High testosterone levels in women may leads to development of sterility and male secondary
sexual features & there will be no menstrual cycle. Therefore, low level of testosterone in
women is going to promote “menstrual cycle” & this testosterone is going to maintain
equilibrium level of balancing estrogen and progesterone hormones during the menstrual cycle as
explained below.
Estrogens and progesterone have negative feedback regulation on FSH and LH through the
anterior pituitary. The FSH and LH cause the increased secretion of estrogen and progesterone
from the ovaries.
The female sex hormones (estrogens and progesterone) are secreted by several structures such as
ovaries, adrenal cortices and the placenta. The two abundant estrogens include the estrone and
estradiol.
Under the stimulation of estrogens, the reproductive organs including the vagina, uterus, uterine
tubes, ovaries and the other external structures become enlarged. The endometrium becomes
thicken..

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

can anybody think of any world events that changed information syste.pdf
1. can anybody think of any world events that changed information systems?
Solution
Systems range from very simple to very complex. There are numerous types of systems. For
example, there are biological systems, mechanical systems, human/mechanical systems,
ecological systems, and social systems.
Following are some technologies that will change technology:-
- 3D printers,
- sensor networks,
- virtual humans
technologies under development now will drastically change our world in the decade to come.
Internet Things:-
We have passed the threshold where more things are connected to the Internet than people. The
transition to IPV6 also supports seemingly limitless connectivity.
Sensor Network:-
Nowadays this technology grows very fast by using this we can track song pollution, air
pollution and we also can track temperature. This technology is growing day by day and many
companies are coming with new ideas related to sensor networks.
Not just Big data, but zettabyte :-
About 5 exabytes of unique information were created in 2008. That's 1 billion DVDs. Fast
forward three years and we are creating 1.2 zettabytes, with one zettabyte equal to 1,024
exabytes. "This is the same as every person on Earth tweeting for 100 years or 125 million years
of your favorite one-hour TV show," says Evans. Our love of high-definition video accounts for
much of the increase.
Yes, there are many other things too but I tried to tell you things I know.
