Science and Sustainable Construction

    As population grows the need for living spaces also increases therefore resources will be used in order to meet this demand. We are currently at the point where using such resources will have an adverse effect on future generations, however this book explores sustainable construction practices to meet human needs for housing, places to work, and other infrastructure without negatively affecting the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This book covers innovative ways to build and maintain different infrastructures.

What is User Interface Design?

    We all know that all of the electronic devices that we use has an interface, even if they look simple it has been researched as to what the style, color and design that will be pleasing too look at and will be user friendly to interact with. This book covers on how designers develop different User Interface (UI) that will endure through the years.

Enhancing Academic Research with Knowledge Management Principles

Organizing data is now one of the most valuable skills in this digital age now that everything is connected to the internet, verifying data is very important due to false information that can be accessed in the different websites. Organizing data and giving meaning to it is what makes valuable just simply gathering data doesn’t mean it is useful or relevant it is how we perceive the data that was gathered that we can truly determine its value.

Nursing: Health Education and Improvising Patient Self-Management

The relationship between nursing and health promotion as well as disease prevention, nursing diagnoses, nursing interventions and care results. The purpose of this is to promote self-management of their patients and becoming more patient centered health professionals, helping our patients get their needed medical needs is the main concern of all medical professionals.

Principles of Modern Agriculture

Exploring different data and new technologies for monitoring water levels and weather and using biotechnology in seed production and new non-chemical ways to control pests and weeds are being researched constantly to improve crop production. With new updated equipment newer types of hybrid crops are being developed which can survive during harsh seasons, genetically modified to repel pests and many more innovations are being discovered and developed.

Todays featured articles comes from the CIT Journal of Computing and Information Technology

    Location-Based Mobile Services (LBMS) is rapidly becoming more popular, dozens of applications use such function to track your location, transactions, and even monitor some of our messages. Using a cryptographic scheme with no trusted intermediary guarantees a user’s privacy, using these algorithms come with computational complexities and to solve that problem is using the AES-256 to encrypt the message and user’s location. Privacy now more than ever is needed for we are now connected to the net and monitored continuously through our online activities.

    Automation is one of the many innovations that has been used in different situation to make work more productive and effective. IT Service Operation oversees the operation such systems to ensure that it is optimized and efficient using Fuzzy Logic, this approach also aims to make a framework as generic as possible, concepts of IT operations, including the incident management, are inspired by the information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL).

    Diagnostic Tests are regularly conducted to analyze if there are any anomalies or needed adjustments, these complex systems are carefully monitored for even a single anomaly could halt the entire system to a complete stop. Studying logical frameworks for diagnostic reasoning, automation methods and their computational properties and technologies implementing these methods.

    Education is one of the most important needs of society therefore teachers must always strive for improvement, setting standards that ensures students are able to learn and apply all the knowledge they have learned. One of the many innovations that have been discovered is using the internet as a medium for various virtual classes, virtual tours and many more activities, however not all students absorb knowledge in the same way, that is why teachers research various methods of teaching using digital or analog methods to ensure that his/her students are able to understand his/her lessons.

    Using different training methods and creating professional development plans ensures that teachers are up to date with various teaching methods that caters to the different needs of students. We hope that these articles will be of great assistance in your research endeavors.

Stem cells are unique for they are capable of recreating functional tissues, which make them highly valuable in the field of medicine. Todays articles comes from the BMC Developmental Biology which shows us the various ways of applying stem cells in different kinds of medical procedures. These articles will provide a much more deeper understanding on how these cells differentiate and give rise to specialized cells such as heart muscle cells, blood cells, and nerve cells. Medical advances have made breakthroughs that has the potential of saving many lives, so we hope that these Journals/Articles will be of great assistance.
