A Review of Precise Measurements of the Pyramids: A Brief Historical Context [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This review discusses the precise surveys of the Egyptian pyramids of Gizeh conducted since the 19th Century. The historical context of the survey work focuses on the equipment and methods used by Sir William M.

Did Zipf Anticipate Socio-Economic Spatial Networks? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An avalanche of empirical studies has addressed the validity of the rank-size rule (or Zipf’s law) in a multi-city context in many countries. City size in most countries seems to obey Zipf’s law, but the question under which conditions (e.g. sample size,

A multi-dimensional framework for improving data reliability in mobile crowd sensing

open access: yesEgyptian Informatics Journal
Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS) has become a promising new data perception paradigm. It is to be able to easily submit the wrong or untrusted data for the malicious attackers in such an environment.

DNA ligase LigE increases bacterial transformation with damaged extracellular DNA

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The DNA ligase LigE from the naturally competent Gram‐negative bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoaea increases transformation with cut extracellular DNA. This process is ATP‐dependent and relies on the catalytic activity of LigE; it also requires that LigE contains an intact periplasmic localisation sequence, indicating that ligE functions in the periplasm ...

Temporal and spatial context in the mind and brain [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Behavioral Sciences, 2017
Theories of episodic memory have long hypothesized that recollection of a specific instance from one's life is mediated by recovery of a neural state of spatiotemporal context. This paper reviews recent theoretical advances in formal models of spatiotemporal context and a growing body of neurophysiological evidence from human imaging studies and animal

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

The influence of spatial and social context on cyclists’ anticipatory yielding behavior

open access: yesTransportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
This study examines how cyclists’ anticipatory yielding behavior is influenced by spatial and social contexts. While previous research has shown that cyclists’ yielding behavior is shaped by environmental context, a controlled study isolating the effects

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

Static BiLog: a Unifying Language for Spatial Structures

open access: yes, 2007
Aiming at a unified view of the logics describing spatial structures, we introduce a general framework, BiLog, whose formulae characterise monoidal categories.
