Nowadays, home-based health care systems are becoming one of the most important issues in smart city applications. The statistical data of death reasons in Bahrain reveals relatively high percentages of deaths from diabetic disease (15%) and heart complications (16%). The authors of this paper propose a framework for developing a [...]

Moisture damage and aging occurs simultaneously in asphalt binder while it is on road pavement in service life and not easy to avoid. This study tries to minimize those two effects with the utilization of carbon nano tubes (CNT) with asphalt binder with the help of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). [...]

The main aim of this research is to investigate perceptions of respondents (auditors, accountants and financial managers) on the effect of provision of non-audit services (NAS) to audit clients companies upon auditor independence and audit quality. This study expands on previous work done on the effects of providing non-audit services [...]

Hg2+ contamination is a serious threat to the environment; hence, the development of methods for its trace level detection is urgently required. To contribute in this domain, we report for the first time the application of a highly sensitive and selective colorimetric sensing platform for Hg2+ ions using thiamine-functionalized silver [...]

Achieving development in any country is a joint responsibility and needs intensive efforts from all citizens; the able-bodied and the disabled. But how can people with disabilities contribute to this development if their work and environment are not fitted to them? In Algeria, according to the Algerian National Office of [...]

It is important for distance learning institutions to be well prepared before designing and implementing any new technology based learning system to justify the investment and minimize failure risk. It can be achieved by systematically assessing the readiness of all stakeholders. This paper first proposes an m-readiness assessment process and [...]
