1.0 Wavelength-division Multiplexing Technology 1.1 Wavelength-division Multiplexing In fibre optic telecommunications‚ wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is a technology which multiplexes multiple optical carrier signals on a single optical fibre by using different wavelengths (colors) of laser light to carry different signals. This allows for a multiplication in capacity‚ in addition to making it possible to perform bidirectional communications over one strand of fiber. (Tomlinson & Lin

abstract concluded that the study identifies Akt and mTOR as downstream targets of PKC-ç that are involved in GBM cell proliferations. The introduction of the paper gave sufficient basic information on Glioblastoma multiforme. It was stated that GBM cells have rates of high proliferation within the brain. The astrocyctic tumors express many integrins which promote specific inhibitors and growth factors. When the PKCs are upstream along with other growth factors they aid in the progression of

analyzing the internal mechanics of a system. Use cases provide a basis for early prototyping and readily identifiable units for incremental delivery. They also provide a means of traceability for functional requirements upstream in the process and for constructing test plans downstream in the process. The purpose of a class diagram is to depict the classes within a model. In an object oriented application‚ classes have attributes‚ operations and relationships with other classes. Class diagrams
