Addendum: A Classification of Plane Symmetric Kinematic Self-similar Solutions

In our recent paper, we classified plane symmetric kinematic self-similar perfect fluid and dust solutions of the second, zeroth and infinite kinds. However, we have missed some solutions during the process. In this short communication, we add up those missing solutions. We have found a total of seven solutions, out of which five turn out to be independent and cannot be found in the earlier paperComment: 7 pages Late

Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia in Advanced Phase: An Analytical Evaluation

Objective: To evaluate the clinical and morphological features in advanced phase chronic myeloid leukaemia. Methods: This descriptive observational study was conducted at the Pathology Unit of Fauji Foundation Hospital, Rawalpindi from June 2012 till June 2016. Diagnosed patients of chronic myeloid leukaemia in accelerated and blast phase of the disease were included in the study. History was taken, physical examination, complete blood counts, peripheral blood film examination, and bone marrow biopsy was done. Results: Mean age in the advanced phase was 47 years. Female to male ratio was 5:1. 19 patients were in blast phase ; 14( 74%) in myeloid transformation, 4(21%) patients in lymphoblastic transformation and 1(05%) patient transformed into acute biphenotypic leukaemia showing both lymphoid and myeloid markers. Forty six patients were in accelerated phase. Conclusion: There is usually not a single criterion for transition into accelerated phase but certain variables coexist at the same time

On Physical Properties of Cylindrically Symmetric Self-Similar Solutions

This paper is devoted to discuss some of the features of self-similar solutions of the first kind. We consider the cylindrically symmetric solutions with different homotheties. We are interested in evaluating the quantities acceleration, rotation, expansion, shear, shear invariant and expansion rate. These kinematical quantities are discussed both in co-moving as well as in non-co-moving coordinates (only in radial direction). Finally, we would discuss the singularity feature of these solutions. It is expected that these properties would help in exploring some interesting features of the self-similar solutions.Comment: 16 pages, accepted for publication in Int. J. of Mod. Phys.

Governance, Decentralisation, and Poverty: The Case of Pakistan

Human development and human rights share a common vision and purpose: to secure the freedom, well being and dignity of humanity. Human development is as essential for human rights as the latter is for the former. Historical evidence suggests that the more civilised societies were those that gave a higher priority to both, for example, the Greek, the Roman and the enlightened years of early Islam. The freedom from want is perhaps the one inalienable right of humanity which stands between dignity and indignity and which must be mitigated against by both state and individual.1 For the first time in history mankind adopted these and other human rights when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations in 1948. Today all but one of the six core covenants and conventions have been ratified by at least 140 countries and state sponsored anti-poverty programmes were initiated globally, most with the help of civil society [UNDP (2000)]. The lessons from history clearly establish that for improving the social endowment of the poor the state and the individual are key players, money is a necessary requirement, good governance is critical to success and the participation of each component of society as a whole ensures sustainability and continued benefits beyond the initial attempts to mitigate the impact of poverty. In other words decentralisation is a key element to improve the lot of the people, particularly the poor and the disenfranchised.

Website Design Usability Issues Faced by the User in Pakistan

In this research we identify the usability issues, website does not meet the user need it is not best approach of web usability. Website that contain the structure of a particular domain, business but does not fulfil the user’s objective it is major usability issue of website. These websites will also not fulfil the organizations need. For web usability first of all the website must be user friendly. The objectives of the website must be clearly define. Short links given for user to easily access the website. Website contain some features, to use the website and their features some key points must be clearly define to reduce the usability issue. Navigation bar must contain some common links that the user fined in all websites .All links must be cover their title which provide the user access to fulfil the needs. Website establishment must provide guidelines for writing styles, for navigation bar, page design and for short links that provide the better usability to user. In all website criteria maintenance is very important for better usability. Also monitoring helps to reduce the usability issues of a website Keywords: Usability, Website, Page design, Navigation bar, link

Distance-based sensor node localization by using ultrasound, RSSI and ultra-wideband - A comparision between the techniques

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become one of the most important topics in wireless communication during the last decade. In a wireless sensor system, sensors are spread over a region to build a sensor network and the sensors in a region co-operate to each other to sense, process, filter and routing. Sensor Positioning is a fundamental and crucial issue for sensor network operation and management. WSNs have so many applications in different areas such as health-care, monitoring and control, rescuing and military; they all depend on nodes being able to accurately determine their locations. This master’s thesis is focused on distance-based sensor node localization techniques; Received signal strength indicator, ultrasound and ultra-wideband. Characteristics and factors which affect these distance estimation techniques are analyzed theoretically and through simulation the quality of these techniques are compared in different scenarios. MDS, a centralized algorithm is used for solving the coordinates. It is a set of data analysis techniques that display the structure of distance-like data as a geometrical picture. Centralized and distributed implementations of MDS are also discussed. All simulations and computations in this thesis are done in Matlab. Virtual WSN is simulated on Sensorviz.
