Trans-Disciplinary Protein Binding Of Drug: Docking Approach
Full text linkThe purpose of present work is to introduce the binding of existing drugs to the trans-disciplinary protein with the help of docking procedures. Docking procedures allows virtually screening a database of compounds and predict the strongest binder based on various scoring functions. This work has been performed with the help of Molegro Virtual docker, in which two drugs are docked with their corresponding and non-corresponding (trans-disciplinary) protein. Results reveals that the protein-ligand interaction energy, hydrogen bond energy and MolDock scores provided by molegro virtual docker, between legands (Levodopa and Acyclovir) and trans-disciplinary proteins have been equivalent or even better than that of between legands and corresponding proteins
Upgrading car saloon & services for Otobacs Sdn. Bhd. at No. 10 Jalan Dato Seri Ahmad Said, 30450, Ipoh, Perak Darul Ridzuan, Malaysia / Mohammad Imran Johari
Full text linkA final year student pursuing a diploma course in Interior Design is required to prepare a final year project. All the design must be related to the choosen project. Before begin with design , every related aspect must be considered and identified. Therefore we must do a research, case study, design schematic and the planning to make sure that the client will give the good feedback with our design. In addition, systematic work must been done properly start from the design development until the end of the project. Upgrading car saloon & services is one of the potential business for my client to expand their business. It is because car saloon & services is a growing business in Malaysia. They also want to attract the people come to their shop. Regarding to the issues, the space planning has come out with design concept and the images. The planning that have been created and the idea that we want to implement into the space must be related to the concept and images. With the concept ’’From parts to arts” and the ultra modern images will implement to the space and the building that have been analysis will be used as clients approval. For the conclusion The good design is how we implement the concept and images into the design centre, followed by the development of ideas
Harnessing the Cloud: A Novel Approach to Smart Solar Plant Monitoring
Full text linkRenewable Energy Sources (RESs) such as hydro, wind, and solar are merging as preferred alternatives to fossil fuels. Among these RESs, solar energy is the most ideal solution; it is gaining extensive interest around the globe. However, due to solar energy’s intermittent nature and sensitivity to environmental parameters (e.g., irradiance, dust, temperature, aging and humidity), real-time solar plant monitoring is imperative. This paper’s contribution is to compare and analyze current IoT trends and propose future research directions. As a result, this will be instrumental in the development of low-cost, real-time, scalable, reliable, and power-optimized solar plant monitoring systems. In this work, a comparative analysis has been performed on proposed solutions using the existing literature. This comparative analysis has been conducted considering five aspects: computer boards, sensors, communication, servers, and architectural paradigms. IoT architectural paradigms employed have been summarized and discussed with respect to communication, application layers, and storage capabilities. To facilitate enhanced IoT-based solar monitoring, an edge computing paradigm has been proposed. Suggestions are presented for the fabrication of edge devices and nodes using optimum compute boards, sensors, and communication modules. Different cloud platforms have been explored, and it was concluded that the public cloud platform Amazon Web Services is the ideal solution. Artificial intelligence-based techniques, methods, and outcomes are presented, which can help in the monitoring, analysis, and management of solar PV systems. As an outcome, this paper can be used to help researchers and academics develop low-cost, real-time, effective, scalable, and reliable solar monitoring systems
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

No full textAppropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
