As scientific research and development become more collaborative, the diversity of skills and expertise involved in producing scientific data are expanding as well. Since recognition of contribution has significant academic and professional impact for participants in scientific projects, it is important to integrate attribution and acknowledgement of scientific contributions into the research and data lifecycle. However, defining and clarifying contributions and the relationship of specific individuals and organizations can be challenging, especially when balancing the needs and interests of diverse partners. Designing an implementation method for attributing scientific contributions within complex projects that can allow ease of use and integration with existing documentation formats is another crucial consideration. To provide a versatile mechanism for organizing, documenting, and storing contributions to different types of scientific projects and their related products, an attribution and acknowledgement matrix and XML schema have been created as part of the Attribution and Acknowledgement Content Framework (AACF). Leveraging the taxonomies of contribution roles and types that have been developed and published previously, the authors consolidated 16 contribution types that could be considered and used when accrediting team member’s contributions. Using these contribution types, specific information regarding the contributing organizations and individuals can be documented using the AACF. This paper provides the background and motivations for creating the current version of the AACF Matrix and Schema, followed by demonstrations of the process and the results of using the Matrix and the Schema to record the contribution information of different sample datasets. The paper concludes by highlighting the key feedback and features to be examined in order to improve the next revisions of the Matrix and the Schema.

Hypotheses about the relationship of the processes of visual perception and variations of the task in an identical stimulus environment was tested. The following tasks were tested: 1) a simple observation of the illuminations of the character in the matrix; 2) counting the number of highlights; 3) monitoring of the target symbol highlights and typing text with the P300 BCI. In a group of 14 people showed that the highest average length of visual fixation and the lowest dispersion of fixation observed for the second type of task. Statistically significant differences in the level of dispersion of visual fixations found between 1-2 and 1-3 modes; differences between the modes for the duration of fixations are at trends. Significant differences in the number of visual fixations on the target symbols wasn’t detected. The overall conclusion is the high perspective of pairing methodology brain-computer interface on the P300 wave with eye tracking to optimize the characteristics of the stimulus in the BCI environment. The differences in the parameters of oculomotor activity between the tasks reflect the level of attention concentration in the target symbols of the P300 BCI

This paper investigated the impact of e-interactivity features on the behavioral and attitudinal loyalty to the Egypt air airline. The goal of the investigation is to examine perceived interactivity in a model which includes most commonly practiced by Egypt air website. More specifically, a model is constructed to confirm the relationship of e-interactivity (responsiveness, personalization/customization, playfulness, ease of use, connectedness) with e-satisfaction and loyalty. About 1500 questionnaire was downloaded on the Website of (Google forms) during the period (15 August -15 November 2017). It has been electronically sent to users of Egypt air website, at their Facebook accounts. Only 127 questionnaires were returned completed and useable packets. With a response rate 8.5%. The results revealed that all variables selected of einteractivity are correlated significantly with level of e-satisfaction. In addition, it was found that e-satisfaction contributes strongly to predict the loyalty in general and particularly the attitudinal loyalty.


A set of matrices can be found which is isomorphic with any linear associative algebra. For the case of quaternions this was first shown by Cayley (1858), but the first formal representation was made by Peirce (1875, 1881). These were two-matrices, and the introduction of the four-row matrices of Dirac and Eddington necessitated the treatment of a wave function as a matrix of one row (as columns). Quaternions have been used by Lanczos (1929) to discuss a different form of wave equation, but here the Dirac form is discussed, the wave function being taken as a quaternion and the four-row matrices being linear functions of a quaternion. Certain advantages are claimed for quaternion methods. The absence of the distinction between outer and scalar products in the matrix notation necessitates special expedients (Eddington 1936). Every matrix is a very simple function of the fundamental Hamiltonian vectors α, β, γ , so that the result of combination is at once evident and depends only on the rules of combination of these vectors. At all stages the relationship of the different quantities to four-space is at once visible. The Dirac-Eddington matrices, the wave equation and its exact solution by Darwin, angular momentum operators, the general and Lorentz transformation, spinors and six-vectors, the current-density four-vector are treated in order to exhibit the working of this method. S and V for scalar and vector products are used. Quaternions are denoted by Clarendon type, and all vectors are in Greek letters.

An image is formed by the small bit of information namely pixel which is stored in the form of an array or a matrix. An image is converted into a digital form and some operations are carried out on this so that an improved image can be obtained and some specific information regarding the same can be recovered too; this procedure is known as image processing. Different processes in image processing involve different methods and operations applied. Matrix Theory has great importance in the operations applied in image processing. This manuscript is focused on the relationship of matrix theory and image processing in various applications of image processing. In order to understand the higher dimension matrices in image processing, some applications are considered to give a good insight.

The use of P92 is becoming more and more widespread in high temperature steam pipe of super-ultracritical power station boilers, it’s key material for the manufacture of boiler’s four main pipes. The properties of P92 are closely related with its microstructure, and the microstructure of P92 has strong relationship with its’ composition and hot processing technology. Three types of P92 with different composition have been prepared. The relationship of delta ferrite between composition, smelting and heat forging process has been investigated for these three samples. The results show that the delta ferrite can be avoided by the adjustment of composition and making process, the delta ferrite will occurred in the matrix of P92 which without delta ferrite before heat treatment if the heat temperature exceed 1200°C , the delta ferrite existed in P92 ingot matrix resulted from the composition cannot be eliminated by hot working and heat treatment.

Mobile learning (m-learning) is a key solution for education in order to improve the learning effectiveness of students. Increasing mobile penetration in the world, particularly among the young generation urges the investigation of the factors affecting m-learning use in higher education institutions. The primary aim of this paper is to utilize general extended technology acceptance model for e-learning (GETAMEL) developed by Abdullah and Ward (2016) to examine the factors driving the undergraduate students’ attitude and intention to use m-learning in Azerbaijan with the moderating effect of Technology innovativeness (TI). The study used a survey conducted across the under- graduate students in the 7 universities located in the Baku city. The survey questionnaire was used to collect valid data from 698 samples. The Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) results revealed that Experience (XP), Subjective norms (SN), Enjoyment (ENJOY), Information and communication technologies anxiety (IC-TA), and Self-efficacy (SE) significantly influence Perceived Usefulness (PU), while only XP and ICTA have an impact on Perceived ease of use (PEOU). It did not affect PU of m-learning. TI was found to have moderating effect on the relationship of PEOU and PU with Attitude (ATT), but not the relationship of ATT with Intention (INT). This study filled the gap in the m-learning literature in Azerbaijan, and provided significant implication for both academic and government institutions willing to increase the penetration of ICT technologies and m-learning in higher education.
