Alja’am Welcome to the third edition of the International Conference on Computer and Applications, ICCA’18. This year’s edition, in Beirut, includes papers covering a vast range of topics from hardware implementations, to virtual reality, to cybersecurity and much more. With the ubiquity of computing in our lives, the opportunity to share and collaborate about these topics is valuable. ICCA’18 provides such an opportunity, as such, it’s no wonder that ICCA’18 received 128 paper submissions, with 84 being accepted for presentation. The world is on the cusp of technological revolutions driven by computing. Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things are two such computing based revolutions. We are about to become much more dependent on applications being designed and trialed today in our universities and research labs. With such a fast rate of development in these socially and economically influential fields, we would like to thank the International University of Beirut, BIU, for hosting this forum that allows international and Lebanese researchers to share ideas, experiences and opinions for the purpose of enhancing our knowledge and use of emerging computing technologies.

  • Origin and Development of Urdu Language in the Sub- Continent: Contribution of Early Sufia and Mushaikh
    South Asian Studies A Research Journal of South Asian Studies Vol. 27, No. 1, January-June 2012, pp.141-169 Origin and Development of Urdu Language in the Sub- Continent: Contribution of Early Sufia and Mushaikh Muhammad Sohail University of the Punjab, Lahore ABSTRACT The arrival of the Muslims in the sub-continent of Indo-Pakistan was a remarkable incident of the History of sub-continent. It influenced almost all departments of the social life of the people. The Muslims had a marvelous contribution in their culture and civilization including architecture, painting and calligraphy, book-illustration, music and even dancing. The Hindus had no interest in history and biography and Muslims had always taken interest in life-history, biographical literature and political-history. Therefore they had an excellent contribution in this field also. However their most significant contribution is the bestowal of Urdu language. Although the Muslims came to the sub-continent in three capacities, as traders or business men, as commanders and soldiers or conquerors and as Sufis and masha’ikhs who performed the responsibilities of preaching, but the role of the Sufis and mash‘iskhs in the evolving and development of Urdu is the most significant. The objective of this paper is to briefly review their role in this connection. KEY WORDS: Urdu language, Sufia and Mashaikh, India, Culture and civilization, genres of literature Introduction The Muslim entered in India as conquerors with the conquests of Muhammad Bin Qasim in 94 AH / 712 AD. Their arrival caused revolutionary changes in culture, civilization and mode of life of India.

Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is an aggressive malignancy which lacks early predictors of prognosis. Here, we hypothesized that expression and prognostic characterization of the critical mediators of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) may provide key information in this regard. Linear regression and multiple correspondence analyses were performed on immunohistochemical data obtained from 20 invasive tumors. Principal component and unsupervised hierarchical clustering were used to analyze the dataset patterns associating with LSCC metastatic profile. Survival and death risk assessments were performed using Kaplan–Meier and hazard ratio tests.

I. Khan during 2002. A total of 36 cases of AFP were reported during this period. They were clinically examined. History was taken with special reference to IM injection and OP vaccination. Stool samples were sent to NIH Islamabad for viral detection. Out of total of 36 patients, 15 were confirmed as polio, 5 were labelled as compatible with polio and 16 were non-polio cases. Out of 15 confirmed cases of polio, 12 (80%) had received IM injections and all had some residual paralysis / weekness after two months follow-up, while 3 of the non polio cases had received I.M. injections and non had residual paralysis / weekness on follow-up. Main cause of high polio prevalence seems to be due to low vaccination rate, particularly routine as compared to supplemental vaccination. It was concluded that supplemental polio vaccination should be continued in an improved and strengthened fession through NIDs and EPI. Keywords: Acute poliomyelitis, IM injections, OP vaccination.
