However, the complex nature of tumor biology demands an integrative analysis of genomic variations to identify converging downstream targets potentially regulated by multiple pathways. Methods: Genomic alterations from whole-genome sequencing results were interpreted in the context of pathways. Beyond listing the implicated known pathways based on genomic alterations, we explored protein interactions cross-linking the pathways to converging downstream targets. A

Abstract:
Exact and in-depth interpretation of near-infrared spectra has often appeared problematic in any case stepping beyond the simplest molecules. The inherent complexity of near-infrared spectra due to the abundance of combination modes and the resulting extensive band overlay frequently limits our comprehension of the spectral bands to vague wavenumber regions in which certain modes likely appear. Coincidently, quantum mechanical simulation of spectra which could offer momentous support in solving such problems has rather been rare in the case of near-infrared region due to practical limitations.

Abstract:
Outcomes theory incorporates a systems approach to planning, and builds evaluation and impact assessment into the management process. It corresponds with the approach taken in the companion book Event Evaluation and particularly with the Event Compass as a comprehensive approach to planning and evaluation. To put it into IA practice, a logic model or theory of change model is required. The nature of evidence is then considered. It is of critical importance when it comes to measurement and the use of indicators, as the question of “what constitutes acceptable evidence?” will frequently arise in the undertaking and interpretation of impact assessments. The forces-pressures-state-impacts-response model (FPSIR) is then presented. It provides a cyclical framework in which specific types of impact can be addressed by examining general forces and more specific trends that lead to pressures on the environment, economy or society. Specific impacts can then be viewed within a context that examines causes, followed by consideration of how people and systems respond to impacts. The chapter ends with another planning model, Limits of Acceptable Change, which introduces several interrelated concepts that impact assessors need to be familiar with: capacity; tipping points; cumulative impacts; risk and uncertainty; precautionary principle. Why planning models? Evaluation and impact assessment are seldom if ever conducted without reference to plans, strategies or policies. The results have to be used in practice, plus some contribution to theory is always possible. When goals are specified and indicators determined in advance, evaluators and impact assessors know what they are looking for.

Abstract:
This chapter aims to give a comprehensive explanatory platform of simulation background. As this chapter comprises of four sections, it reviews simulation definitions, forms of models, the need for simulation, simulation approaches and modeling notations. Simulation definition is essential in order to set research boundaries. Moreover, the chapter discusses forms of models: scale model of the real system, or discrete and continuous models. Subsequently, the chapter states documentation of several reasons by different authors pertaining to the question of “why simulate?,” followed by a thorough discussion of modeling approaches in respect to general considerations. Simulation modeling approaches are discussed with special emphasis on the discrete events type only: process-interaction, event scheduling, and activity scanning, yet, a slight comparison is made between the different approaches. Furthermore, the chapter discusses modeling notations activity cycle diagram (ACD) with different versions of the ACD. Furthermore, the chapter discusses petri nets, which handle concurrent discrete events dynamic systems simulation. In addition, Monte Carlo simulation is discussed due to its important applications.

Full text
Abstract:
Estuaries are commonly described as semi-enclosed bodies of water, situated at the interface between land and ocean, where seawater is measurably diluted by the inflow of freshwater (Hobbie, 2000). The term “estuary,” derived from the Latin word aestuarium, means marsh or channel (Merriam-Webster, 1979). These dynamic ecosystems have some of the highest biotic diversity and production in the world. Not only do they provide a direct resource for commercially important estuarine species of fishes and shellfish, but they also provide shelter and food resources for commercially important shelf species that spend some of their juvenile stages in estuarine marshes. For example, high fish and shellfish production in the northern Gulf of Mexico is strongly linked with discharge from the Mississippi and Atchafalaya rivers and their associated estuarine wetlands (Chesney and Baltz, 2001). Commercial fishing in this region typically brings in 769 million kg of seafood with a value of $575 million. Fisheries production and coastal nutrient enrichment, via rivers and estuaries, are positively correlated within many coastal systems around the world (Nixon et al., 1986; Caddy, 1993; Houde and Rutherford, 1993). The coupling of physics and biogeochemistry occurs at many spatial scales in estuaries (figure 1.1; Geyer et al., 2000). Estuarine circulation, river and groundwater discharge, tidal flooding, resuspension events, and exchange flow with adjacent marsh systems (Leonard and Luther, 1995) all constitute important physical variables that exert some level of control on estuarine biogeochemical cycles. There has been considerable debate about the definition of an estuary because of the divergent properties found within and among estuaries from different regions of the world. Consequently, there have been numerous attempts to develop a comprehensive and universally accepted definition. Pritchard (1967, p. 1) first defined estuaries based on salinity as “semi-enclosed coastal bodies of water that have a free connection with the open sea and within which sea water is measurably diluted with fresh water derived from land drainage.” A general schematic representation of an estuary, as defined by Pritchard (1967), and further modified by Dalrymple et al. (1992) to include more physical and geomorphological processes, is shown in figure 1.2.

Abstract:
United Nations (UN) Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali’s ‘Agenda for Peace’ was the first comprehensive UN engagement with conflict prevention and peace following the end of the Cold War. The Secretary-General divided his agenda into preventive diplomacy, peacemaking, and peacekeeping. But given the interconnectedness of global challenges, and the changing face of threats to international peace and security and armed conflict, a comprehensive approach calls for a blurring of the lines between these temporally defined elements of the architecture of peace. In particular disputes, the toolkit deployed in respect of one aspect of maintaining or securing peace may well be relevant or even critical in respect of another. Flexibility and responsiveness to the particular context is essential. While it remains true that international efforts towards peace and security operate on the sequential conflict cycle paradigm suggested by the Secretary-General, stakeholders increasingly seek to ‘bridge the divides that beset this discussion, between security and development, between crisis response and capacity building’ in order to ‘encompass our new conception of violence in a variety of environments’.

Abstract:
New Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs), in particular mobile phones, have proved effective in increasing participation of some sectors of the population in public affairs. ICT are helping to take government closer to the people, making it more transparent and responsive. However, little has been done to help citizens participate online throughout the policy cycle and even less to engage the most vulnerable communities in such processes in order to increase equity. This chapter presents the conceptual framework for e-participation in low- and middle-income neighborhoods, reviewing first the main features of traditional participation and later the strengths and weaknesses of e-participation. As with traditional participation mechanisms, e-participation can be effective if it increases political equality and therefore needs to help engage all social groups including the most vulnerable. However, ICTs can also be limiting and even backfire as they cannot replace a broader participatory process and an institutional design that needs to enhance political equality, avoid elite capture, count on expert opinion, and build on traditional methods of participation. This chapter ends by applying this framework to a slum-upgrading project in Mtwapa, Kenya. The Mtwapa e-participation platform is presented as a proposed institutional design in a low-income context that aims to facilitate an effective process through comprehensive and inexpensive ICT-enabled citizen participation.

Abstract:
Research is currently being undertaken in Australia to develop new drilling technologies for deep mineral exploration. The Deep Exploration Technologies Cooperative Research Centre (DET CRC) has carried out a comprehensive review of the available drilling technologies in the market. Following the study, coiled tube drilling technology has been suggested as a faster and cheaper method than conventional pipe drilling. This is primarily due to its smaller footprint relative to the standard rotary method, ease of unit mobility, less operating personnel, faster rate of penetration, and faster rig u

Abstract:
Project managers, product owners, and quality assurance leaders need to visualize and understand the entire picture of the development process as well as comprehend the product quality level, in a synthetic and intuitive way in order to facilitate the decision of accepting or rejecting each iteration within the software life cycle. This idea is extremely important nowadays, due to the fact that time is a key resource and it should be managed wisely to obtain a feasible quality level for each software deliverable. This article presents a novel solution called Product Quality Evaluation Method (

Abstract:
Abstract Comprehensive experimental research on fatigue performance of niobium stabilized (type 347) steel has revealed beneficial effects of hot holds aimed to simulate normal operation of NPP between the fatigue relevant transients. Reduction of plastic strain, extension of life and increase of endurance limit has been demonstrated in strain controlled HCF tests. Our latest results indicate moderate, but still measurable ‘hold effects’ even without any stop of straining and loading, when blocks of low rate cycles are applied between normal frequency straining at constant 325°C.

Abstract:
High temperature fuel cells are experiencing an increasing amount of attention thanks to the operation of several prototype plants, including an integrated Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) and gas turbine power plant. Several authors estimate that the projected performances of such cycle have the potential of exceeding those of combined cycles, even at a small-scale size and with an extremely low environmental impact. However, performance estimates generally cover a very wide range, with predicted net electric efficiency spanning between 55 and 70%. The reasons for this excessive variety of result

Abstract:
Low alloy steels are often utilized in components experiencing decades of usage under aggressive operating conditions. Even though there has been remarkable advancement in the development of modern alloys, however, these materials continue to be applied in boilers, heat exchanger tubes, and throttle valve bodies in both turbomachinery and pressure-vessel/piping applications. These steels display excellent resistance to deformation and damage under creep and/or fatigue at moderate temperatures. For example, the material 2.25Cr-1Mo has exceptional balance of ductility, corrosion resistance, and
