Units higher than the word are seen to obey the same metrical constraints that are presen

Paper presented at Workshop on the Sociology of Transparency, Univ. Osnabruck, Nov. 2015. Disclosure and transparency, being open so that others can look deeper into to your organization, is not just a requirement imposed by government regulations or funding agencies. Transparency is also tied to a value of authenticity, sincerity and ethics. There is moral dimension to transparency. Being open is

Weighted Subspace Fitting of Interferometric Phases for Multibaseline SAR Interferometry

In this paper, we deal with the problem of exploiting baseline diversity of a multichannel interferometric SAR system to overcome the layover problem. The problem arises when different height contributions collapse in the same range-azimuth resolution cell, due to the presence of strong terrain slopes or discontinuities in the sensed scene. The multilook framework is adopted to counteract the pres

On the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and metabolism of sulphonylurea and its metabolites - with special reference to glibenclamide

The pharmacodynamics (PD), pharmacokinetics (PK) and metabolism of the sulphonylurea(SU) and its metabolites (M1 and M2) , and of another SU, glipizide (Gz) were studied in diabetes patients and healthy volunteers. In one study Caucasians and Chinese were compared. Sensitive and selective methods for determination of drug levels and concentrations of insulin and proinsulin were used. The terminal
