. Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technology has been adapted to produce a sensitive optical sensor and Biosensor applications. Simulation analysis ( in Matlab) has been made for SPR for gold (Au) layer with thickness (40 nm) and Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) polymer with various thickness (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 nm) deposited on glass prism type D-ZLAF50_Dense lanthanum flint. The sensitive layer was air (n=1). The analysis was taken for different wavelengths from Ultra-Violet wavelength 100 nm to Near Infra- Red wavelength 1000 nm. The properties of θ_SPR have been calculated from plotted reflectance against incident angle θincid.. The SPR sensitivity (S) was calculated. The results give efficient detection in chan

     This paper introduced a hybrid technique for lossless image compression of natural and medical images; it is based on integrating the bit plane slicing and Wavelet transform along with a mixed polynomial of linear and non linear base. The experiments showed high compression performance with fully grunted reconstruction.

The alluvial fan of Mandali located between latitude 30˚45’00” N longitude 45˚30’00” E in east of Diyala Governorate, Iraq. Thirty-five wells were identified in the study area with average depth of 84 m and estimated area of 21550 ha. A three-dimensional conceptual model was prepared by using GMS program. From wells cross sections, four geological layers have been identified. The hydraulic conductivity of these layers was calculated for steady state condition, where the water levels for nine wells distributed over the study area were observed at same time. Afterward, PEST facility in the GMS was used to estimate the aquifer hydraulic characteristics. Other characteristics such as storage coefficient and specific yield have

Alginate is one of the natural biopolymers that is widely used for drug formulations, combination of alginate with other polymers, such as gum acacia, pectin, and carrageenan can increase mechanical strength, therefore, can reduce leakage of the encapsulated active pharmaceutical ingredient from the polymer matrix. Interaction of alginate and these polymers can occur via intermolecular hydrogen bonds causing synergism, which is determined from the viscosity of polymer mixture.

Alginate was combined with gum acacia/pectin/carrageenan in different blending ratios (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100) with and without addition of CaCl₂. The synergism effect is obtained from the design of experimental (DoE), and calculati

     Due to the significant role in understanding cellular processes, the decomposition of Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) networks into essential building blocks, or complexes, has received much attention for functional bioinformatics research in recent years. One of the well-known bi-clustering descriptors for identifying communities and complexes in complex networks, such as PPI networks, is modularity function.   The contribution of this paper is to introduce heuristic optimization models that can collaborate with the modularity function to improve its detection ability. The definitions of the formulated heuristics are based on nodes and different levels of their neighbor properties.  The modulari
