Orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs), which disintegrate rapidly (<1 min) in the mouth and do not require water for administration, have become a very popular dosage form. The study aims to develop a simple and inexpensive method of manufacturing ODTs of a sparingly water-soluble drug, Dextromethorphan hydrobromide. Two factors, three levels (32) full factorial design was used to optimize the diluent, microcrystalline cellulose (X1) and superdisintegrant, croscarmellose sodium (X2) concentrations.
The purpose of this course is to introduce fundamental concepts of heuristics in solving various optimization problems with emphasis on metaheuristics. The topics include basic heuristic constructs (greedy, improvement, construction); metaheuristics such as simulated annealing, tabu search, genetic algorithms, ant algorithms and their hybrids.
By the end of this course students should be able to design and implement efficient algorithms to solve complex optimization problems across a diverse range of applications, such as networking, bioinformatics, routing and scheduling, etc.
This course continues the coverage of the fundamental concepts of Object Oriented Programming started in Programming I (CSC 111). It covers more advanced concepts and topics such as relationships between classes, inheritance, polymorphism, abstract classes, error handling, interfaces, generics and data structures such as linked lists, stacks and queues, in addition to graphical user interface.
This course aims at preparing students to comfortably indulge in research for their graduation projects and theses. It sets the groundwork of the logic of inquiry. It adopts a systematic research methodology starting by a selection of a topic in the computer science disciplines and collecting a comprehensive list of references for it through the search of available information resources.
يهدف الاقتصاد الكلي الى فهم آلية عمل الاقتصاد ككل. ودراسة سلوك الاقتصاد الوطني, النمو الاقتصادي، مستوى التوظف التضخم وقياس وتحليل الرفاه الاقتصادي، لذلك فالمخرج الأساسي لهذا المقرر هو تعليم الطلاب أساسيات النظريات الاقتصادية الكلية وتحليل النشاطات الاقتصادية على المستوى الكلي. بنهاية هذا الفصل سيكون الطلاب قادرون على :
This paper presents results from ground penetrating radar surveys using the SIR-10B GPR instrument (manufactured by Geophysical Survey System Inc., USA), with 400 MHz monostatic antenna (model 5 103). Survey was made over 3 excavation levels along the highway section at the Ras en Naqab escarpment area, Southwest Jordan. A total of 217 m along 4 profiles were covered in the winter of 2012.
The present cross sectional study was conducted on 811 Saudi women to evaluate their food safety knowledge
and practices and explore factors affecting them. They reported better food safety practices than
knowledge in overall food safety and all parameters except cooking. Personal hygiene was the parameter
where they reported higher mean knowledge and practice (63.4% and 73.8%; respectively) with the lowest
mean knowledge score in utensils and equipment (49.8%) whereas the lowest mean practice (60.2%) was in
