Amirs of Timurid State I- Barlas Tribe: Toghay Bugha Barlas
No full textTogay Bu a Barlas, Emîr Timur un ilk mücadele döneminden itibaren yan nda bulunanemîrlerdendir. Sadece kendi de il karde i La l Barlas ile o ullar Rüstem, Hamza, Pir Muhammed veAli de bu devlete hizmet etmi tir. Togay Bu a n n soyu Emîr Timur la ayn soya, Karacar Noyan adayanmaktad r. Ancak onun muteber emîr olarak an lmas , Emîr Timur la akraba olmas ndan ziyadedaha ba ndan beri Emîr Timur un yan nda yer almas ndan kaynaklanmaktad r.Yapm oldu u Buhara darugal kendinden sonra o ullar Rüstem ve Hamza ya geçmi tir.O ullar yla birlikte ayn zamanda emîrlik yapan Togay Bu a n n Emîr Timur dan önce öldü ümuhtemeldir. O ullar ndan Rüstem, bu sülalede en çok ismi geçen ki idir. Rüstem Togay Bu a,özellikle Emîr Timur un ölümünden sonra karde leriyle birlikte ahruh Mîrza n n yan nda yer alm ve Halil Sultan a kar mücadele etmi tir. Buhara n n ba ar l bir ekilde savunulmas nda karde iHamza yla birlikte önemli katk s bulunan Rüstem, daha sonra Ulu Beg in emîrleri aras nda yeralm t r.Toghay Bugha Barlas is one of the amir of Amir Timur's first struggle period. Not only hisbrother La l Barlas but also his sons Rustem, Hamza, Pir Muhammed and Ali served this state.Toghay Bugha's ancestry is based on Karacar Noyan, the same as Amir Timur. However, he knownas a prestigious amir stems from the fact that Amir Timur took his place from the beginning ratherthan being relative Amir Timur.The darugha of Bukhara was followed by his sons Rustem and Hamza. It is possible that ToghayBugha, who was a surrogate with his sons at the same times, had died before Amîr Timur. Rustem,one of his sons, is the person whose name is said to be the most. Rustem Toghay Bugha, especiallyafter the death of Amir Timur, and his brothers took place Shah Rukh Mîrza fought against KhalilSultan. Rustem, who contributed to the successful defense of Bukhara together with his brotherHamza, became one of the amir of Ulugh Beg in the later
ALI: Anonymous Lightweight Inter-Vehicle Broadcast Authentication with Encryption
No full textWireless broadcast transmission enables Inter-vehicle or Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication among nearby vehicles. This communication supports latency-critical applications for improved safety and maybe optimized traffic. However, V2V communication is vulnerable to cyber attacks involving message manipulation. Mechanisms are required to ensure both authenticity and integrity of broadcast data, while maintaining drivers privacy against surveillance. Considering the limited computational resources of vehicles and the possibility of high traffic density scenarios, authentication processes should have low computational overhead. Prior research has produced multiple authentication protocol proposals based on digital signatures, hash functions, or Message Authentication Codes (MACs). To date, there is no computationally efficient secure broadcast authentication scheme tolerable by the vehicles resource-constrained On-Board Units (OBUs) for latency-critical applications in heavy traffic conditions. This paper provides a new secure, efficient, and privacy-preserving scheme proposing Anonymous Lightweight Inter-vehicle (ALI) broadcast authentication with encryption. ALI provides a high level of anonymity by combining a message authentication scheme with beacon encryption. The cryptographic overhead for V2V communication in the ALI scheme is only 149 bytes, and can handle authentication of approximately 700 broadcast messages every 100 milliseconds. This demonstrates the suitability of the ALI scheme in heavy traffic scenarios. We show the security and efficiency of our proposal by conducting security proof and performance analysis.Full Tex
Multi-channel customer management: A case study in Egypt
No full textChannel management is one CRM systems component much influenced by the behaviour of customers in relation to the implementation and use of channel management CRM component. The consumers’ behaviours, preferences, perceptions and expectations are crucial for the implementation and use of channel management. Customers’ contact with the organization’s multi-channels can occur at several touch points through out customer lifecycle. Customers’ behaviours may be differentiated according to the individual or micro level, but it might also differ at an ecological or macro level of analysis (Ramaseshan et al., 2006). In this paper the author has conducted a case study in Egypt to analyze customers’ behaviours at a macro level and customers channel choices, through out the customer lifecycle. The author has used a Structurational Analysis model (Ali and Brooks, 2008) to identify the cultural factors (Ali, et al. 2008) that influence the multi-channel customer management in Egypt

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Intermittent Fasting Promotes Fat Loss with Lean Mass Retention, Increased Hypothalamic Norepinephrine Content, and Increased Neuropeptide Y Gene Expression in Diet-Induced Obese Male Mice
No full textClinical studies indicate alternate day, intermittent fasting (IMF) protocols result in meaningful weight loss in obese individuals. To further understand the mechanisms sustaining weight loss by IMF, we investigated the metabolic and neural alterations of IMF in obese mice. Male C57/BL6 mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD; 45% fat) ad libitum for 8 weeks to promote an obese phenotype. Mice were divided into 4 groups and either maintained on ad libitum HFD (HFD), received alternate day access to HFD (IMF- HFD), switched to ad libitum low fat diet (LFD; 10% fat), or received IMF of LFD (IMF- LFD). After 4 weeks, IMF-HFD (~13%) and IMF-LFD (~18%) had significantly lower body weights than HFD. Body fat was also lower (~40-52%) in all diet interventions. Lean mass was increased in the IMF-LFD (~12-13%) compared with HFD and IMF-HFD groups. Oral glucose tolerance AUC was lower in the IMF-HFD (~50%), whereas insulin tolerance AUC was reduced in all diet interventions (~22-42%). HPLC measurements of hypothalamic tissue homogenates indicated higher (~55-60%) norepinephrine (NE) content in the anterior regions of the medial hypothalamus of IMF compared with ad libitum fed groups, whereas NE content was higher (~19-32%) in posterior regions in the IMF-LFD group only. Relative gene expression of Npy in the arcuate nucleus was increased (~65-75%) in IMF groups. Our novel findings indicate that intermittent fasting produces alterations in hypothalamic NE and NPY, suggesting an involvement in the counter regulatory processes of short-term weight loss are associated with an IMF dietary strategy.Peer reviewe
Factors influencing development of management strategies for the Abou Ali River in Lebanon. I: Spatial variation and land use
No full textSurface water bodies are progressively subject to increasing stress as a result of environmentally degrading processes primarily related to anthropogenic activities. This study assesses and examines the impact of land use and anthropogenic activities on the spatial variation in water quality of the Abou Ali River in North Lebanon. It is the first detailed study of its kind in Lebanon and adds to the existing Knowledge by shedding light on a relatively small Mediterranean river in a developing country where there is a paucity of such studies. The assessment was conducted at the end of the dry season in 2002 and 2003 and the end of the wet season in 2003 and 2004. The study has demonstrated the importance of anthropogenic influences on the water quality of the Abou Ali River Basin, as concentrations of most contaminants were higher at locations with greatest human activity. The most adversely affected area was the section of the river that flows through an entirely urbanized and highly populated region, the Tripoli conurbation. Upstream rural sites were enriched by contaminants primarily from non-point sources such as agricultural runoff and poultry litter whereas contaminant concentrations at the urban sites were enriched by a combination of sewage discharge and flow of contaminants from upstream. If the Abou Ali River is to be utilized as a managed water resource and its water quality sustained, point source discharges will require treatment and land use management must be planned to minimize the impact of diffuse source pollution on the river. A high priority should be given to the implementation and enforcement of the precautionary and polluter pays principles. Moreover, an effective legal, economic and institutional framework is required to encourage investment in waste reduction and control and to introduce environmentally sound practices
N-extended Chern-Simons Carrollian supergravities in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions
No full textIn this work we present the ultra-relativistic N-extended AdS Chern-Simons supergravity theories in three spacetime dimensions invariant under N-extended AdS Carroll superalgebras. We first consider the (2, 0) and (1, 1) cases; subsequently, we generalize our analysis to N = (N, 0), with N even, and to N = (p, q), with p, q > 0. The N-extended AdS Carroll superalgebras are obtained through the Carrollian (i.e., ultra-relativistic) contraction applied to an so(2) extension of osp(2|2) ⊗ sp(2), to osp(2|1) ⊗ osp(2, 1), to an so(N) extension of osp(2|N) ⊗ sp(2), and to the direct sum of an so(p) ⊕ so(q) algebra and osp(2|p) ⊗ osp(2, q), respectively. We also analyze the flat limit (l → ∞, being l the length parameter) of the aforementioned N-extended Chern-Simons AdS Carroll supergravities, in which we recover the ultra-relativistic N-extended (flat) Chern-Simons supergravity theories invariant under N-extended super-Carroll algebras. The flat limit is applied at the level of the superalgebras, Chern-Simons actions, supersymmetry transformation laws, and field equations
