description: Prekarität hat als Kategorie in den vergangenen Jahren Einzug in die gesellschaftlichen Diskurse gehalten, wird aber in der industrie- und arbeitssoziologischen Debatte noch unterschätzt. Der Beitrag geht von der Überlegung aus, dass die Dynamik flexibel-marktgetriebener Produktionsregime auch aus einer Prekarisierung von Erwerbsarbeit resultiert. Unsichere Arbeits- und Lebensverhältnisse werden nicht als ein Randphänomen gedeutet, das sich ausschließlich den "Outsidern" am Arbeitsmarkt zurechnen läßt. Vielmehr schwächen Prekarisierungsprozesse die soziale Integrationskraft nachfordistischer Arbeitsgesellschaften, indem sie bis weit in ihre als gesichert geltenden Bereiche eindringen. Zu den wichtigen arbeitspolitischen Schlussfolgerungen gehören unter anderem die Schaffung eines Umfeldes, in dem die "Prekarier" trotz schwieriger Arbeits- und Lebensbedingungen handlungsfähig werden/bleiben, wozu die Durchsetzung eines gesetzlichen Mindestlohnes ebenso zu zählen sind wie die Unterstützung von kollektiven Selbstorganisationsansätzen.
description: Within the last years precarity has as a category entered the discourses, however, it is still underestimated in the debates of industrial and labour sociology. The starting point of this text is the consideration that the dynamics of flexible market-driven production regimes is amongst other things a result of growing employment precarity. Insecure working and living conditions are not interpreted as a marginal phenomenon limited to the classical outsiders of labour market. On the contrary processes of growing precarity are weakening the forces of social integration in post-fordist formations by invading formerly secure zones. The text suggests some (labour-) political conclusions, e.g. the development of social contexts strengthening the capability of acting for those affected by precarious conditions. It also suggests the implementation of a legislative minimum wage as well as the support of approaches of collective self-organization.

Επιλέχθηκε το βιβλίο Europa braucht den Euro nicht του γερμανού οικονομολόγου Thilo Sarrazin. Η επιλογή έγινε καθώς εκείνη την εποχή το βιβλίο ήταν επίκαιρο, γιατί πρόβαλε επιχειρήματα κατά της νομισματικής ένωσης της Ευρώπης. Στόχος της σχολιασμένης μετάφρασης ήταν να γίνει μια όσο το δυνατόν ακριβής μετάφραση του πρωτοτύπου κειμένου και να αποδοθούν κάποιοι γερμανικοί όροι στα ελληνικά. Κατόπιν έγινε ορολογική τεκμηρίωση αυτών των όρων και παρουσίαση των μεταφραστικών δυσκολιών.
description: In the framework of the Interdepartmental Postgraduates Studies Program in the field of translation an annotated translation from German into Greek was completed. The book Europe does not need the Euro by German economist Thilo Sarrazin was chosen. The choice of the book was made regarding its timeliness at that time because it advocated against the European monetary union. The aim of the annotated translation was to present an as far as possible precise translation of the original text and to translate some German terms into Greek. Furthermore those terms were documented and the translation difficulties were presented.

description: Shallow flows are common in natural and human-made environments. Even for simple rectangular shallow reservoirs, recent laboratory experiments show that the developing flow fields are particularly complex, involving large-scale turbulent structures. For specific combinations of reservoir size and hydraulic conditions, a meandering jet can be observed. While some aspects of this pseudo-2D flow pattern can be reproduced using a 2D numerical model, new 3D simulations, based on the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations, show consistent advantages as presented herein. A Proper Orthogonal Decomposition was used to characterize the four most energetic modes of the meandering jet at the free surface level, allowing comparison against experimental data and 2D (depth-averaged) numerical results. Three different isotropic eddy viscosity models (RNG k-$ε$, k-$ε$, k-$ω$) were tested. The 3D models accurately predicted the frequency of the modes, whereas the amplitudes of the modes and associated energy were damped for the friction-dominant cases and augmented for non-frictional ones. The performance of the three turbulence models remained essentially similar, with slightly better predictions by RNG k-$ε$ model in the case with the highest Reynolds number. Finally, the Q-criterion was used to identify vortices and study their dynamics, assisting on the identification of the differences between: i) the three-dimensional phenomenon (here reproduced), ii) its two-dimensional footprint in the free surface (experimental observations) and iii) the depth-averaged case (represented by 2D models).

description: From Netflix recommendations to Amazon Echos sitting proudly on kitchen countertops, artificial intelligence (AI) has been inserted into the mundane settings of our everyday lives. These ‘smart’ devices and services have given rise to the collection of data and processing within everyday objects, accumulating new challenges, particularly in legibility, agency, and negotiability of interactions. The emerging field of Human Data Interaction (HDI) recognises that these challenges go on to influence security, privacy, and accessibility protocols, while also encompassing socio-technical implications. Furthermore, these objects challenge designers’ traditional conventions of neutral interactions, which only work as instructed. However, these smart objects go beyond typical human-object relationships functioning in new and unexpected ways, creeping in function, and existing within independent and interdependent assemblages of human and non-human actants—demanding alternative considerations and design practice. This thesis aims to question the traditional practice of considering and designing for AI technology by arguing for a post-anthropocentric perspective of things with agency, by adopting the philosophical approach of Object Orientated Ontology with design research. This research ultimately presents and builds (a currently) unorthodox design approach of Human-AI Kinship that contests the design orthodoxies of human-centred design. Conclusively, this research seeks to bring into being AI as a material for design and justify through the case study of AI legibility. A More than Human Centered Design approach is established through a transdisciplinary and iterative Research through Design methodology, resulting in the design of AI iconography that attempts to communicate and signify AI’s ontology to human users. This thesis is concluded by testing the legibility of the icons themselves and discussing philosophy as an asset for design research.

description: Application of Parker's dynamo model to the geodynamo with the growing inner core is considered. It is shown that decrease of the inner core size, where intensive magnetic field generation takes place, leads to the multi-polar magnetic field in the past. This effect reflects the decrease of the region of the effective magnetic field generation. The process is accompanied by increase of the reversals number and decrease of intensity of the geomagnetic field. The constraints on the mechanisms of convection in the liquid core are discussed.

description: Abstract: Using Marxist literary criticism, this paper aims at exploring and showing that Tiyambe Zeleza’s Smouldering Charcoal is depicting postcolonial African realities in terms of the misuse of power and the ideology of personal cult. The work has revealed that oppression has become an ideology and a working tool for the new African leaders in their quest for eternal power. These contemporary African leaders use their position to maltreat the masses and at the same time maintain them in abject and voiceless position. The unique choice these downtrodden masses have is to keep quiet and content themselves with their pitiful created conditions. The study has furthermore shown that poverty has also become a creative means to control these masses. Rebellion and resistance against these heartless leaders are some of the appropriate means the masses need to get out from these inhuman conditions in which they live.
Assessment of Sexual Coercion Among Addis Ababa University Female Students

description: Cross-sectional institution based survey using self-administered anonymous questionnaire and Focus group discussion, was conducted among female students of Addis Ababa University to determine the magnitude, immediate consequences and socio demographic correlates of sexual coercions. A total of 612 female students were involved in the study. The quantitative study revealed that the prevalence of lifetime completed and attempted rape was 12.7 %( 95%CI, 10.06, 15.33) and 27.5% (95%CI, 3.96, 31.3) respectively. Sexual harassment in lifetime and 12 month period was reported in 58% and 41.8% of students, respectively. Rape was significantly associated for those students, who have boyfriends, and from divorced family as a risk factor, and for those living with both parents before joining university and money sent as needed with near by living families as a protective factor. Promise by friends, physical force and alcohol use were also contributing to the offence. Unwanted pregnancy, abortion and psychological disturbances were the immediate reported consequences of rape victims, which signify the role of rape in these health problems. After their victimization 93.6% of the victims didn't share the event with anybody. Victims reported about the perpetuator that 93.6% was a person known by them. The findings of this study indicate that female adolescents even in higher educational level are at higher risk of sexual coercion and its consequences. It is recommended that sexual coercion needs attention and action from concerned bodies, education for students on how to challenge gender norms and to create new models of healthy relationship, for the victim preparation of rape crisis center in health institution with standardized treatments for STDs, raising the awareness of policy making bodies in order to implement the existing punishment on the abusers and encouraging victims to report for legal bodies.

Search for light Higgs bosons from supersymmetric cascade decays in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV
Creators: name: CMS Collaboration
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2022
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A search is reported for pairs of light Higgs bosons (H$_1$) produced in supersymmetric cascade decays in final states with small missing transverse momentum. A data set of LHC pp collisions collected with the CMS detector at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ is used. The search targets events where both H$_1$ bosons decay into $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ pairs that are reconstructed as large-radius jets using substructure techniques. No evidence is found for an excess of events beyond the background expectations of the standard model (SM). Results from the search are interpreted in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric extension of the SM, where a "singlino" of small mass leads to squark and gluino cascade decays that can predominantly end in a highly Lorentz-boosted singlet-like H$_1$ and a singlino-like neutralino of small transverse momentum. Upper limits are set on the product of the squark or gluino pair production cross section and the square of the $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ branching fraction of the H$_1$ in a benchmark model containing almost mass-degenerate gluinos and light-flavour squarks. Under the assumption of an SM-like H$_1$ $\to$ $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$ branching fraction, H$_1$ bosons with masses in the range 40-120 GeV arising from the decays of squarks or gluinos with a mass of 1200 to 2500 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level.

Investigations into Light-front Quartic Interactions for Massless Fields (I): Non-constructibility of Higher Spin Quartic Amplitudes

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The dynamical commutators of the light-front Poincaré algebra yield first order differential equations in the $p^+$ momenta for the interaction vertex operators. The homogeneous solution to the equation for the quartic vertex is studied. Consequences as regards the constructibility assumption of quartic higher spin amplitudes from cubic amplitudes are discussed. The existence of quartic contact interactions unrelated to cubic interactions by Poincaré symmetry indicates that the higher spin S-matrix is not constructible. Thus quartic amplitude based no-go results derived by BCFW recursion for Minkowski higher spin massless fields may be circumvented.

description: New sets of parameter tunes for two of the colour reconnection models, quantum chromodynamics-inspired and gluon-move, implemented in the PYTHIA 8 event generator, are obtained based on the default CMS PYTHIA 8 underlying-event tune, CP5. Measurements sensitive to the underlying event performed by the CMS experiment at centre-of-mass energies $\sqrt{s}$ = 7 and 13 TeV, and by the CDF experiment at 1.96 TeV are used to constrain the parameters of colour reconnection models and multiple-parton interactions simultaneously. The new colour reconnection tunes are compared with various measurements at 1.96, 7, 8, and 13 TeV including measurements of the underlying-event, strange-particle multiplicities, jet substructure observables, jet shapes, and colour flow in top quark pair ($\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$) events. The new tunes are also used to estimate the uncertainty related to colour reconnection modelling in the top quark mass measurement using the decay products of $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ events in the semileptonic channel at 13 TeV.

Assessment of Sexual and Reproductive Health Problems among Prisoners aged 15-29 years in Addis Ababa.
Creators: name: Agazi, Alem
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2009

description: Death and disability caused by Sexual and Reproductive Health accounted for 18 percent of the total disease burden globally in 2001, though there is considerable regional variation. And STIs, excluding HIV/AIDS, accounted for 0.9 percent of all DALYs lost in this year. Prisoners aged 15-29 years are more vulnerable for STIs because of their high risk behaviours and Sexual Violence. Sexual violence occurs in every culture, in all levels of society and in every country of the world and it is a serious public health and human rights problem. In Ethiopia, though various researches have been made to assess SRH problems of youths, still there are no studies that address the SRH needs of youth in prison. This cross sectional survey conducted in 2008/2009, tried to investigate the magnitude and factors associated with SRH problems among youth prisoners in Kaliti Maremia-Bet, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This study was conducted among a total of 358 youth inmates participant, with a response rate of 99.7% and among 18 discussants in quantitative and qualitative part of the study, respectively. Among 306 sexually active respondents, 31 (10%) had consensual sex in prison, 28 (9.2%) reported symptoms of STIs in prison. History of STI before detention was positively associated with STI in prison [AOR) = 4.3 95%CI: (1.8, 10.2)]. And, among 357 respondents 15 (4.2%) reported sexual victimization. The prevalence of STIs and sexual victimization among inmates in Kaliti Maremia-Bet is considerable. Therefore, Sexual health programmes in prisons should include STIs screening, education about STI risk reduction and awareness raising program about sexual violence is needed for prisoners and prison staff.

description: Interactions between jets and the quark-gluon plasma produced in heavy ion collisions are studied via the angular distributions of summed charged-particle transverse momenta (pt) with respect to both the leading and subleading jet axes in high-pt dijet events. The contributions of charged particles in different momentum ranges to the overall event pt balance are decomposed into short-range jet peaks and a long-range azimuthal asymmetry in charged-particle pt. The results for PbPb collisions are compared to those in pp collisions using data collected in 2011 and 2013, at collision energy sqrt(s[NN]) = 2.76 TeV with integrated luminosities of 166 inverse microbarns and 5.3 inverse picobarns, respectively, by the CMS experiment at the LHC. Measurements are presented as functions of PbPb collision centrality, charged-particle pt, relative azimuth, and radial distance from the jet axis for balanced and unbalanced dijets.

description: The heavy fluxonium at zero external flux has a long-lived state when coupled capacitively to any other system. We analyze it by projecting all the fluxonium relevant operators into the qutrit subspace, as this long-lived configuration corresponds to the second excited fluxonium level. This state becomes a bound-state in the continuum (BIC) when the coupling occurs to an extended system supporting a continuum of modes. In the case without noise, we find BIC lifetimes that can be much larger than seconds $T_1\gg {\rm s}$ when the fluxonium is coupled to a superconducting waveguide, while typical device frequencies are in the order of ${\rm GHz}$. We have performed a detailed study of the different sources of decoherence in a realistic experiment, obtaining that upward transitions caused by a finite temperature in the waveguide and decay induced by $1/f$-flux noise are the most dangerous ones. Even in their presence, BICs decay times could reach the range of ${T_1\sim \rm 10^{-1} ms},$ while preparation times are of the order of $10^{2}$ns.

description: Three fully variational formulations of the complete-active space coupled-cluster (CASCC) method are derived. The formulations include the ability to approximate the model vectors by smooth manifolds, thereby opening up the possibility for overcoming the exponential wall of scaling for model spaces of CAS type. In particular, model vectors of matrix-product states are considered, and it is argued that the present variational formulation allows not only favorably-scaling multireference coupled-cluster calculations, but also systematic correction of tailored coupled-cluster calculation and of quantum chemical density-matrix renormalization group methods, which are fast and polynomial scaling, but lacks the ability to properly resolve dynamical correlation at chemical accuracy. The extension of the variational formulations to the time-domain is also discussed, with derivations of abstract evolution equations.

description: Prenatal exposure to alcohol can result in fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), characterized by significant changes in the physiology, structural plasticity of hippocampal function, including long-term deficits in learning and memory. Environmental enrichment has long been known to improve motor and cognitive function levels, causes several neurochemical and morphological alterations in the brain. Therefore, the effects of environmental enrichment on the neurobehavioral and neurotrophic changes in mice exposed prenatally to alcohol were investigated in this study. The pregnant dams were given 25 % ethanol (w/v) or isocaloric sucrose by liquid diet from gestation day 7 to 20. After we aning on postnatal day 28, offspring were exposed to standard cage (CC, CFAS) or enriched living conditions (CE, EFAS) for 8 weeks. Neurobehavioral studies both on hippocamus-dendent spatial learning and place and cue learning strategy, a striatum-dependent test, were measured by the Morris water maze task. Moreover, the reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique was also used in order to study the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) level in both the hippocampus and striatum of mice. Neurobehavioral studies show that animals exposed prenatally to alcohol were impaired as shown in both hippocampal-dependent spatial/place and striatal-dependent response/cue learning tests. Moreover, the levels of BDNF expression both in the hippocampus and striatum of mice were also decreased. Interestingly, environmental enrichment can ameliorate the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure both on the neurobehavioral and neurotrophic levels. These observations indicated that enriched environment attenuated memory impairment of prenatal alcohol exposure both in hippocampal and striatal circuitry.

description: If massive neutrinos are Dirac particles, the proposed PTOLEMY experiment will hopefully be able to discover cosmic neutrino background via $ν^{}_e + {^3}{\rm H} \to {^3}{\rm He} + e^-$ with a capture rate of $Γ^{}_{\rm D} \approx 4~{\rm yr}^{-1}$. Recently, it has been pointed out that right-handed components of Dirac neutrinos could also be copiously produced in the early Universe and become an extra thermal or nonthermal ingredient of cosmic relic neutrinos, enhancing the capture rate to $Γ^{}_{\rm D} \approx 5.1~{\rm yr}^{-1}$ or $Γ^{}_{\rm D} \approx 6.1~{\rm yr}^{-1}$. In this work, we investigate the possibility to distinguish between thermal and nonthermal spectra of cosmic relic neutrinos by measuring the annual modulation of the capture rate. For neutrino masses of $0.1~{\rm eV}$, we have found the amplitude of annual modulation in the standard case is ${\cal M} \approx 0.05\%$, which will be increased to $0.1\%$ and $0.15\%$ in the presence of additional thermal and nonthermal right-handed neutrinos, respectively. The future detection of such a modulation will be helpful in understanding the Majorana or Dirac nature of massive neutrinos.

description: Polaron is a composite quasiparticle derived from an excess carrier trapped by local lattice distortion, and it has been studied extensively for decades both theoretically and experimentally. However, atomic-scale creation and manipulation of single-polarons in real space have still not been achieved so far, which precludes the atomistic understanding of the properties of polarons as well as their applications. Herein, using scanning tunneling microscopy, we succeeded to create single polarons in a monolayer two-dimensional semiconductor, CoCl2. Combined with first-principles calculations, two stable polaron configurations, centered at on-top and hollow sites, respectively, have been revealed. Remarkably, a series of manipulation progresses, from creation, erasure to transition, can be accurately implemented on individual polarons. Our results pave the way to understand the polaronic physics at atomic level, and the easy control of single polarons in 2D semiconductor may open the door to 2D polaronics including the data storage.
Nb/InAs nanowire proximity junctions from Josephson to quantum dot regimes

description: The superconducting proximity effect is probed experimentally in Josephson junctions fabricated with InAs nanowires contacted by Nb leads. Contact transparencies $t \sim 0.7$ are observed. The electronic phase coherence length at low temperatures exceeds the channel length. However, the elastic scattering length is a few times shorter than the channel length. Electrical measurements reveal two regimes of quantum transport: (i) the Josephson regime, characterized by a dissipationless current up to $\sim 100$ nA, and (ii) the quantum dot regime, characterized by the formation of Andreev Bound States (ABS) associated with spontaneous quantum dots inside the nanowire channel. In regime (i), the behaviour of the critical current $I_c$ versus an axial magnetic field $B_{||}$ shows an unexpected modulation and persistence to fields $>2$ T. In the quantum dot regime, the ABS are modelled as the current-biased solutions of an Anderson-type model. The applicability of devices in both transport regimes to Majorana fermion experiments is discussed.

description: Background:- Youth sexuality and reproductive health are generally not well addressed. As a result, problems like unwanted pregnancy, complications of unsafe abortion, and STI including HIV/AIDS remain very common, particularly, in the developing countries such as Ethiopia. Objective and methodology:-A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted to assess the friendliness of reproductive health services provided by model youth centers in Addis Ababa. The Assessments had focused on facility inventory, providers' attitude, interaction of providers with youth and service characteristics. Observation, key informants interview, focus group discussions and exit interviews were the methods used and Data was collected from February to March, 2007. Result:- Currently, Reproductive Health services like family planning counseling, contraceptives provisions, pregnancy test, STI diagnosis and treatment, VCT and other related counseling are being delivered by the youth centers. More female clients were using the services during the time of data collection than their male counterparts and 44.8% of youth centers clients were found to be out of the primary target age group (>25 years). The utilization of the existing services by the age group 10-14 was found to be very law. Majority of the clients sought VCT services (52.6%) and only around 18 % of the total interviewed clients came for contraceptives. About 9 and 30% of the respondents were asked to bring parental and partner permission respectively for service utilization. Approximately 89%, 78.7% and 90% of the respondents agreed in getting completed services, in providers' confidential handling and short waiting time respectively. Overall 92.7% of the clients were satisfied with the services they had received. Discussion and Conclusion: - on the bases of the above findings one can concluded that addressing early adolescent age group (10-14 yrs) was overlooked by the centers. Sub optimal services friendliness was observed in placing and using appropriate guidelines and polices regarding youth friendly service provision. In addition, RH service providers of the centers had not received any training in respect to delivering friendly services to youth. The need of vii intensifying reproductive health educations and addressing early adolescents (10-14) should be the priority concern of the centers and peer education is the most effective tool identified

description: Οι σύγχρονες κοινωνίες χαρακτηρίζονται από το φαινόμενο του γλωσσικού και πολιτισμικού πλουραλισμού αποτελούν ένα πολύχρωμο μωσαϊκό γλωσσών και πολιτισμών. Τα αναλυτικά προγράμματα εναρμονισμένα με τις κοινωνικές και επιστημονικές εξελίξεις επικεντρώνονται στην ανάπτυξη της πολυγλωσσικής και πολυπολιτισμικής δεξιότητας θέτοντάς τες στο επίκεντρο των στόχων τους από την προσχολική κιόλας ηλικία. Μέσα από τη διαμόρφωση ενός προγράμματος πολυγλωσσικών δραστηριοτήτων το οποίο είναι κατάλληλο για παιδιά προσχολικής και πρώτης σχολικής ηλικίας και την εφαρμογή του σε σχολική τάξη νηπιαγωγείου, η παρούσα μεταπτυχιακή εργασία φιλοδοξεί να αναδείξει τις στρατηγικές ανάπτυξης της πολυγλωσσικής δεξιότητας στα παιδιά ηλικίας πέντε με επτά ετών. Το πρόγραμμα διάρκειας 5 εβδομάδων, αξιοποιώντας τα κινούμενα σχέδια, μέσα από δραστηριότητες βιωματικές φέρνει τους μαθητές σε επαφή με 11 διαφορετικές γλώσσες. Ταυτόχρονα επιχειρείται να καταγραφούν και να ομαδοποιηθούν οι στρατηγικές που χρησιμοποιούν οι ίδιοι προσεγγίζοντας αυτές τις νέες γλώσσες.
description: Modern societies are characterized by the phenomenon of linguistic and cultural pluralism and are composed of a colorful mosaic of languages and cultures. Modern curricula, harmonized with social and scientific developments focus on the development of multilingual and multicultural skills, putting them at the center of their goals from pre-school age. Through the formulation of a program of multilingual activities, that is suitable for preschool and primary school children and its implementation in a kindergarten class, this postgraduate thesis aims to highlight the strategies for the development of multilingual skills in children aged five to seven years. The 5-week program, utilizing animation, through experiential activities brings students in contact with 11 different languages. In parallel, the present thesis attempts to record and group the strategies they use in approaching these new languages.

description: In this study, we illustrate computer aided drug design of new benzothiazole and pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazole derivatives as epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TK) inhibitors. Compounds 1-5 were screened at NCI, USA, for antitumor activity against non-small cell lung cancer (NCI-H522), colon cancer (HCT-116, HCT-15 and HT29) and breast cancer (MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231/ATCC) cell lines in which EGFR is overexpressed in varying levels. Results indicated that these compounds are more potent antitumor agents compared to erlotinib against HT29 and MDA-MB-231/ATCC cell lines. Compound 3 showed GI50 value of 22.3 nM against NCI-H522 cell line, while erlotinib exhibited GI50 value of 1 μM against the same cell line. In addition, these compounds were studied for their EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity. Virtual screening utilizing molecular modeling and QSAR techniques enabled the understanding of the pharmacophoric requirements for antitumor activity. Docking the designed compounds into the ATP binding site of EGFR-TK domain was done to predict the analogous binding mode of these compounds to the EGFR-TK inhibitors.
