Monetary Impact Of National Exchange Carrier Association Tariffs On Internet Access Cost In Rural Areas, Tim Obermier, Angela K. Hollman

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

This study examines the monetary impact of tariffs on consumer internet access via a digital subscriber line (DSL). Historically, the Communications Act of 1934 mandated that telephony services be provided to everyone, without exclusion. With the rapid emergence of the internet, the Connect America Fund was recently implemented to ensure equal access to both voice and broadband services. Since many telephony companies have emerged as internet service providers, DSL internet service is often bundled together with a landline telephone, especially in rural areas. This study examines the total cost of such bundled DSL internet service across the classes of cities …

Google And Shifting Conceptions Of What It Means To Improve A Product, Ramsi Woodcock

Law Faculty Popular Media

Judges sometimes claim that they do not pick winners when they decide antitrust cases. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Competitive conduct by its nature harms competitors, and so if antitrust were merely to prohibit harm to competitors, antitrust would then destroy what it is meant to promote.

What antitrust prohibits, therefore, is not harm to competitors but rather harm to competitors that fails to improve products. Only in this way is antitrust able to distinguish between the good firm that harms competitors by making superior products that consumers love and that competitors cannot match and the bad firm …

Enzymatic Analysis Of Yeast Cell Wall-Resident Gapdh And Its Secretion, Michael J. Cohen, Brianne Philippe, Peter N. Lipke

Publications and Research

In yeast, many proteins are found in both the cytoplasmic and extracellu- lar compartments, and consequently it can be difficult to distinguish nonconventional secretion from cellular leakage. Therefore, we monitored the extracellular glyceralde- hyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) activity of intact cells as a specific marker for nonconventional secretion. Extracellular GAPDH activity was proportional to the number of cells assayed, increased with incubation time, and was dependent on added substrates. Preincubation of intact cells with 100mM dithiothreitol increased the reac- tion rate, consistent with increased access of the enzyme after reduction of cell wall di- sulfide cross-links. Such treatment did not increase …

Mapping Routine Measles Vaccination In Low- And Middle-Income Countries, Alyssa N. Sbarra, Simon I. Hay, Stephen S. Lim, Jonathan F. Mosser, Veincent Christian F. Pepito, Local Burden Of Disease Vaccine Coverage Collaborators, 634 Co-Authors

Ateneo School of Medicine and Public Health Publications

The safe, highly effective measles vaccine has been recommended globally since 1974, yet in 2017 there were more than 17 million cases of measles and 83,400 deaths in children under 5 years old, and more than 99% of both occurred in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Globally comparable, annual, local estimates of routine first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) coverage are critical for understanding geographically precise immunity patterns, progress towards the targets of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), and high-risk areas amid disruptions to vaccination programmes caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Here we generated annual estimates of routine childhood MCV1 …

Automatic Identity Verification Using Face Images., Sabry Saraya, John Zaki

Mansoura Engineering Journal

This paper presents two types of identity verification systems based on face images. In the first system principle component analysis (PCA) is used for dimensionality reduction and feature extraction whereas in the second system wavelet transform is used for dimensionality reduction and (PCA) for feature extraction. Two types of classifiers, the Euclidean distance and Angle distance, are used with both systems. Comparative study by computer simulation showed that the addition of wavelet transform before (PCA) provides better performance in the case of Euclidean distance classifier. Moreover, the results obtained by (PCA) are in agreement with those reported in literatures.

Effect Of Bed Roughness On Hydraulic Jump Characteristics., M. Attia

Mansoura Engineering Journal

Hydraulic jump characteristics were measured over various types of artificially roughened test beds in a horizontal flume 5 cm bed width and smooth vertical side walls. Roughness was created using 8.7 mm high cylindrical pins of 6 mm diameter. The patterns of roughness were staggered or parallel and also using strip and spotted roughness test bed, which provided the range of bed friction from 0.042 to 0.16 5. It was observed that the bed roughness reduces the sequent depth and length of hydraulic jump; the observed reductions were related to the Froude number and the bed roughness.
