  • Mourad, Azzam; Soeanu, Andrei; Laverdiere, Marc-André; Debbabi, Mourad (2016-05-19)
    In this paper, we present new pointcuts and primitives to Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) languages that are needed for systematic hardening of security concerns. The two proposed pointcuts allow to identify particular ...
  • Majdalani, Michel (2016-05-17)
    By establishing regional continuing education centers across Lebanon, a country characterized as a fragile state with an unstable political environment, a private university’s continuing education (CE) unit faces new ...
  • Nour, Chadi; Takche, Jean (2020-03-12)
    Let A ⊂ R n be a closed set and let S ⊂ R n be a set containing A. In this paper we study a new regularity class for A, called S-convexity, introduced by C. Nour, H. Saoud and J. Takche [Regularization via sets satisfying ...
  • Abi Nader, Elie; Lambe, Cecile; Talbotec, Cecile; Dong, Liping; Pigneur, Benedicte; Goulet, Olivier (2019-05-03)
    Background Infants with intestinal failure (IF) are at increased risk of malnutrition and require adapted nutrition support. Optimal weight gain during nutrition rehabilitation should occur at the velocity of statural age ...
  • Damiani, Ernesto; Jeong, Jechang; Howlet, Robert J.; Jani, Lakhmi C. (Springer, 2017-12-07)
  • Nasrallah, Walid F.; Srour, F. Jordan (2018-01-09)
    This paper introduces a new algorithm for enumerating regular Boolean functions. This algorithm exploits the equivalence between regular Boolean functions and positive threshold functions that can be used to represent ...
  • Tokajian, S. (2016-04-05)
    Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterial pathogen that is distributed worldwide and represents an increasing problem, both in hospitals and in the community. Global transmission of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) has ...
  • Obeid, Samir; Moghrabi, I.A.R. (2015-11-27)
    This work aims at ensuring smoothness of interpolation in both the iterate and the gradient spaces in the so-called multi-step quasi-Newton methods. It concentrates on deriving a variable-metric family of minimum curvature ...
  • Abou-Rjeily, Chadi; Daniele, Norbert; Belfiore, Jean-Claude (IEEE, 2017-06-08)
    This paper presents the construction of new totally-real space-time coding schemes suited for carrier-less ultra-wideband transmissions. These schemes are associated with pulse position modulation and with hybrid pulse ...
  • Safa, Waddah M. (Lebanese American University, 2016-03-07)
    This thesis examines the potential for conflict between domestic Lebanese political (and other) pressures and international pressures that is a direct result of globalization. This conflict is further highlighted by the ...
  • Abou-Rjeily, C.; Daniele, N.; Belfiore, J.-C. (IEEE, 2017-06-08)
    In this paper, we propose a new space time (ST) coding scheme for time hopping (TH) ultra wideband (UWB) systems. The proposed scheme encodes the pulses used to transmit one information symbol. This permits to achieve full ...
  • Dayer, Alexandre G.; Cleaver, Kathryn M.; Abouantoun, Thamara; Camerin, Heather A. (2016-09-27)
    Ongoing neurogenesis in the adult mammalian dentate gyrus and olfactory bulb is generally accepted, but its existence in other adult brain regions is highly controversial. We labeled newly born cells in adult rats with the ...
  • El Maarri, Osman; Oldenburg, Johannes (2017-09-15)
    Since publication of the sequence of the factor VIII gene (F8) in 1984, a large number of mutations that cause hemophilia A (HA) have been identified.With the technical advances associated with mutation screenings, it is ...
  • Uzunoglu, Sarphan (2019-04-03)
    Triple-C’s 2012 dated issue titled Marx is Back was involving a contemporary and critical analysis of the rise and institutionalization of neoliberalism in media industry. Furthermore, this analysis ...
  • Barakat, Rabie (Lebanese American University, 2012-01-18)
    This thesis highlights the role of new media in shaping public discourse and redesigning geopolitical realities in the Arab World. It examines the interrelation between media and politics as revealed by the Arab popular ...
  • Baybars-Hawks, Banu (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2019-04-02)
  • Zdenek, P.; Bazant, Luigi Cedolin; Tabbara, Mazen (2017-04-26)
    This paper presents a simple new method to calculate column-interaction diagrams, which takes into account slenderness effects. The method consists of a simple incremental-loading algorithm that traces the load-deflection ...
  • Sweiss, Ferouz Salameh (Lebanese American University, 2012-12-19)
  • Obeid, Samir; Moghrabi, I.A.R. (2018-06-20)
    Multistep quasi-Newton methods for optimization were derived by J. A. Ford and I. A. Moghrabi [J. Comput. Appl. Math. 50, No. 1-3, 305-323 (1994; Zbl 0807.65062)], where it was shown how an interpolation in the variable-space ...
  • Wang, Wei; Ke, Shi; Kwon, Sunkuk; Yallampalli, Sasidhar; Cameron, Arlin G.; Adams, Kristen E.; Mawad, Michel E.; Sevick-Muraca, Eva M. (2019-07-08)
    Optical imaging has great potential for studying molecular recognitions both in vivo and in vitro, yet nuclear imaging is the most effective clinical molecular imaging modality. The combination of optical and nuclear imaging ...
