    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

    EVALUATION OF ANTI EPILEPTIC ACTIVITY OF ETHANOLIC EXTRACT OF MURRAYA KAENIGII ON MES, PTZ INDUCED CONVULSIONS IN RATS

    No full text
    ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to evaluate anti epileptic activity of ethanolic extract of M. kaenigii on MES, PTZ Induced convulsions in Rats. After the collection of the plant it was extracted with using ethanol solvent by maceration method. Preliminary Phytochemical analysis was done. Acute toxicity was studied. Assessments of antioxidant activity by assay of superoxide dismutase were done and also different enzyme analysis was studied. Effect of EEMK on ME induced convlusions was done in PHT treated animals. Secondary metabolites including alkaloids, saponins, cardiac glycosides and flavonoids were found to be present in the extract and these could have a wide range of compounds with pharmacological activities including those found in this study. Effect of antioxidant enzymes on MES and PTZ induced convolutions were studied. EEMK significantly inhibited the PTZ-induced convulsion, prolonged the latency for convulsion and decreased mortality. The PTZ kindling model is a widely used screening model for testing anticonvulsive compounds. Results based on the PTZ induced clonic seizures and MES induced generalized clonic-tonic seizures in rats model demonstrated that the ethanol extract of Murraya koenigii - Linn. is effective in reducing the severity of clonic seizures and generalized clonic-tonic seizures. This, therefore, supports the traditional use of the plant in the treatment of epilepsy. Key Words: anti epileptic activity, M. kaenigii, PTZ, EEMK, PHT.

    A framework for conceptual modeling and graphical interaction with knowledge-intensive domains

    No full text
    The first part presents an interactive framework for modeling knowledge-intensive domains. We have designed and implemented a prototype framework SSONET (Structured Semantic Object NETwork) which has the potential to incorporate all the schema design and data management capabilities available in current Object-Oriented databases as well as the knowledge representation and reasoning capabilities available in artificial intelligence related systems. One goal of creating such a representational framework has been to impose a structural discipline on the creation and the manipulation of conceptual objects within Object-Oriented knowledge models. A fundamental design issue underlying the development of the SSONET modeling framework is the utilization of explicit links. The framework allows for the specification of meta-level conceptual relationships between the semantic links themselves. The second part presents a novel visual query language (VQL) for interacting with the SSONET knowledge model. VQL allows convenient access to the various types of knowledge captured by the knowledge model. It consists of a set of \u27graphical primitives\u27 along with a combination grammar for creating graphical queries. Apart from being able to create simple queries such as those that can be specified in SQL or QBE, VQL can be used for making queries on the ER model. Further, VQL handle complicated, indirect queries. Recursive queries on graph structures such as finding transitive closures of graphs can be pictorially specified in an elegant way. Perhaps the most powerful feature of VQL is that it provides high semantic expressibility (in being able to specify highly complex queries) without sacrificing ease of user query formulation. SSONET and VQL are embedded in an object-oriented visual knowledge base interaction environment that supports schema creation and manipulation as well as database querying and updation. The prototype framework has been implemented in Smalltalk-80 running on a Sun 3/60 workstation. The framework is illustrated through a particular domain knowledge model created for Computer Integrated Manufacturing applications. It is currently being used as a platform for designing various CIM applications such as knowledge based tools for engineering design, assembly planning and machine fault diagnosis.

    Quantitative and qualitative analysis with graphic representation of the publication productivity of a scientist facilitates easy and clear perception about the work of a scientist. Bhabha’s scientific work spanned over more than three decades (1933-1967) during which he published 104 publications, which could be classified into nine fields: Interaction of Radiation with Matter (4), Quantum Electrodynamics (5), Mathematical Physics (2), Cosmic Ray Physics (18), Elementary Particle Physics (14), Field Theory (15), General Physics (2), Nuclear Physics (4) and General (40). The highest number of publications (6) were published in 1941, 1945 and 1964 respectively. The average number of publications published per year was 3.05. His productivity coefficient was 0.05 which is a clear indicates that his publication productivity was quite consistent throughout his scientific career. He was single author in 79 of his publications and the main author in 24 publications indicates that he always preferred to work himself and lead the team as ‘mentor’. Bhabha had 22 collaborators during the period. Team of research collaborators working with a successful scientist documents the sociological aspect of history of science while generating knowledge by a leader in a domain. Bhabha became a citable author in 1937. Bhabha received 1211 citations to his 30 publications out of 104 publications. Out of 104, 74 publications did not receive any citations. Out of 74 publications, 40 publications dealt subjects mainly of general interest. Bhabha’s 86.66 percent of cited publications received their first citations within four years of their publication indicates that his publications were noticed immediately and had direct impact among the fellow researchers working all over the world. His overall citation rate was 11.64 per cited publication. The highest citations 389 were received to the domain ‘Cosmic ray physics’. The highest number of citations received were 45 in 1938. His self-citations were only 24 (1.98%) and citations by others were 1187 (98.02%). The highest self citations were six in 1946. Bhabha’s mean diachronous self-citation rate was 1.98. The highest citation rate 28.4 was to the domain ‘Quantum electrodynamics. His single authored publications have received the highest number 863 (71.26%) of citations. Bhabha’s five publications have been cited more than 100 times each. His publications have been cited by the authors working in various diverse fields like nuclear physics, mathematical physics, instrumentation, optics, geophysics and geochemistry, condensed matter physics, applied physics, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering etc., indicating a very diverse influence and impact of Bhabha’s publications. Bhabha’s publications have also been cited by the Nobel laureates like V. L. Ginzberg, Wolfgang Pauli, H. A. Bethe, M. Born, W. Bothe, E. P. Wigner, H. Yukawa, P. M. S. Blackett and C. N. Yang which is an indication of his originality of ideas and high quality of publications
