The rate of breast cancer among Asian women is increasing day by day, which has led to various concerns about the healthy future and well-being the women in this population. Breast cancer is a disease which is also affecting racial and ethnic communities in the US. Different ...

555timer

Introduction The 555 integrated circuit (chip) is used in a variety of timer and oscillator applications. A 555 timer is used to provide time delays and oscillations and as a flip-flop element. The device has additional terminals provided to trigger or resetting purpose (Nair, 2006). During the time delay operation mode, time is precisely controlled by an external resistor and capacitor. While working as an oscillator, the duty cycle and the frequency are accurately regulated by two external resistors and a capacitor (Brumbach, & Clade, 2003). 555 is triggered and reset on falling waveforms. A typical 555 timer IC is ...

AIM:

The purpose of this experiment is to: Investigate the voltage switch over the points required for logic high or low levels. Prove experimentally different Boolean laws and logic theorems. Use different logic laws and theorems, to simply a combinatorial logic circuit. INTRODUCTION: This level detector circuit is based upon a LM311 Digital Comparator. This digital comparator is a device that produces an output level, either high or low ...

Introduction

The report presents discussion and analysis of compensation strategies of Nucor Corporation. The organizational structure significantly impacts the compensation system of an organization that affects its ability to attain strategic goals. If the compensation to executives is not aligned with the organizational culture then it may lead to adverse impact on the firm’s performance and lead to other consequences.

The firms offer different types of compensation to their executives that may affect the compensation structure. However, they are ...

Introduction

There has been an increased incidence of patients treated with congestive heart failure. The debate concerning the cardiovascular safety was started in 2007 when an analysis concerning risks associated with myocardial infarction was done. This debate has been going on since then, and recently the report from the US Senate Committee on Finance has provided more details about the analysis (Nissen, & Wolski 2010). Rosiglitazone is manufactured by the US pharmaceutical Company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK). This is a drug works as insulin through binding the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) in fat cells thus making them respond more to insulin. Rosiglitazone is ...
