With exponential growth in applications complexity, software agents’ domain is making a remarkable progress. Complex and distributed applications need a group of software agents to perform the intended tasks, instead of standalone isolated agents. In software agents’ domain, limited work has been done in case of teamwork among mobile agents. Mobile agents which have the capability to roam around on various machines need special communication and coordination strategies as well as goal sharing and task accomplishment mechanisms. In this thesis, a teamwork strategy is proposed to enhance the task execution performance as well as mechanism to efficiently address the communication and coordination issues among group of mobile agents. The proposed technique is developed by conceptualizing the Honey-Bee teamwork strategy and named after it as “Honey-Bee teamwork architecture”. In association with it, the goal oriented ontology based policies concept is proposed for improving the mobility mechanisms of mobile agents. It also addresses the aspects of goal definition, task creation and execution on distributed machines by mobile agents. This goal oriented approach reinforces the teamwork architecture as well as its goal and task division characteristics. The ontology based policy technique facilitates in convenient assignment of goals and associated tasks setup information for mobile agents which were earlier difficult to create and execute as desired especially in dynamic environments. The proposed strategy is evaluated using combination of teamwork strategies on single and multiple machines scenarios. The proposed honey-bee technique was found more efficient in the distributed infrastructure especially for higher number of member agents in a team. It shows linear behavior as compared to exponential increase in task accomplishment time in case of conventional strategy. The combination of simplified task execution as well as reduced size of mobile agent requires less time in performing the desired functionality. Additionally, the earthquake management system (EMS) is proposed and discussed as proof of concept application. It highlights the usage of software agents in disaster management and expresses its teamwork capabilities to handle complex application scenarios. This leads to conception of major application domain and test bed where software agents may execute viin combination of various teamwork fashions. The major structure and behavior of proposed application is expressed and analyzed using Pi Calculus and Pi ADL formal techniques.

تعلیم میں کمپیوٹر کا کردار

تعلیم میں کمپیوٹر کا کردار
قوموں کی زندگی میں کچھ لمحات ، ان کی تاریخ میں امر ہو کر ہمیشہ کے لیے عزم، ولولے، حوصلے، استقامت اور ترقی وخوشحالی کے سفر پر ان کو آمادہ کرتے ہیں۔ قرآنِ پاک میں ہے کہ انسان کے لیے کائنات کی ہر چیز مسخر کر دی گئی ہے۔ فرمانِ باری تعالیٰ کے مطابق کائنات کی ہر چیز انسان کے تابع ہے۔ انسان جب چاہے جہاں چاہے اور جیسے چاہے کائنات کے ذرّے ذرّے پر حکومت کر سکتا ہے۔ قرآن کی اس آیت نے اہل کتب کی زندگی میں انقلاب برپا کر دیا اور کمپیوٹرکو دیکھ کر قرآنِ پاک کی حقیقت تو اور بھی الم نشرح ہو جاتی ہے کہ انسانوں کے لیے کائنات کی ہر چیز مسخر کر دی گئی ہے۔
کمپیوٹر الیکٹرانک کی ایک ایسی ایجاد ہے جو ہمارے لاکھوں مسائل ، ہماری بے شمار مشکلات آناً فا ناًدرست انداز میں حل کر دیتی ہے۔ اس میں معلومات جمع کرنے کے بعد دوبارہ حاصل کی جاسکتی ہیں یہ اعدادوشمار جمع کرنے اور ان کا تقابلی جائزہ لینے کے کام بھی آتا ہے۔ دوسرے الفاظ میں اس کی (Approach) اور (Data) کاعمل انسانی دماغ سے کئی گنا بہتر اور جلد ہوتا ہے یہ معلومات کو (Print) کرنے کی بھی صلاحیت رکھتا ہے۔

آپریشن (سرجری) کا شرعی جائزہ

Islam offers a complete code of conduct. Its instructions are not limited to some fields of life. Islam guides all those things to his followers which are necessary for the well-being of mankind. The modern age is the age of science and technology, it has created some modern issues to Muslims scholars, like Test Tube baby, cloning and some different kind of surgical operation. This article deals with the status of Surgery in Islamic Shariah.

Assessment of Various Microbial Inocula for Improving Phosphorus Use Efficiency in Soil

More than 90% of Pakistani soils are phosphorus deficient (contain < 10 mg kg–1 bio–available P), even though total P in these soils varies from 175–1300 mg kg–1. Moreover, phosphates from P fertilizers soon after their application are fixed with calcium in calcareous soils. Certain bacteria as well as fungi have the potential to solubilize / release the native fixed inorganic soil P. Phosphorus solubilization by the microorganism is very important aspect in the scenario when world’s rock phosphate resource (raw material for phosphatic fertilizers) is depleting and limiting its use in fertilizer industry due to its competitiveness day by day with other industries, viz., metallurgy, explosives, ceramics, water treatment, fungicides, food preservatives, cosmetics, anti corrosion agents etc. Soil sampling on the basis of calcareousness was carried out. Two soils series, viz., Kahuta (non calcareous) and Balkasar (calcareous) were selected for the purpose of research. Experiments under incubation and greenhouse (with maize crop) environment were performed simultaneously under different doses of applied P fertilizer, viz., 0, 150, 300, 450, 600, 750 and 900 mg kg–1 of soil to study the P dynamics. The treatments were incubated at 25 °C for 90 days under incubation experiment while maize crop was sown in case of greenhouse experiment. Soil samples were taken at 30 days interval from both experiments and were analyzed for different P forms through sequential P fractionation scheme. Pattern of P fractions as affected by different P doses was studied. It was noticed that all P fractions except Olsen–P and Ca2–P were increased with the application of P fertilizer with passage of time. This increase was greater for higher P doses. The xvi increase was more in Ca– and Al– bound P forms in case of Balkasar soil series if compared with Kahuta soil. The Fe–P increase was higher in case of non calcareous Kahuta soil than in Balkasar soil series. The Ca2–P and Olsen–P was higher at 30 days which decreased with the passage of time. Increase in P fractions was more pronounced in incubation than greenhouse experiment. Plant P uptake was also influenced positively with the addition of each successive P dose till 450 mg kg–1 but remained unaffected at higher P doses. Phosphorus solubilizing bacteria / fungi (PSB/PSF) were isolated from the aforesaid soil series. These phosphate solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) were identified through biochemical and molecular techniques and were tested for phosphorus solubilization index (PSI), pH drop, P solubilization in broth culture. The results indicated that the PSM isolated from calcareous soil were more efficient in their potential to solubilize phosphorus. The PSM isolated and identified in the previous study were further tested for their potential to transfigure the P forms in calcareous and non calcareous soils in incubation followed by greenhouse study. The results showed that Aspergillus niger among PSF and Burkholderia cepacia among PSB performed better in transforming the soil P fractions. The impact was more conspicuous in calcareous soil. The PSM although could also solubilizes the Al– and Fe– bound P but their effect on Ca– bound P fractions was more prominent. The P fractions including Ca8–P, Fe–P, Ca10–P and Al–P decreased with inoculation of PSM in comparison with control under maize crop. Olsen–P and Ca2–P increased with the inoculation, while occluded–P remained unaffected with the addition of PSM. Furthermore, impact of PSF on soil P forms and plant available P was more prominent than their PSB counterparts.
