background: dietary approaches to stop hypertension (dash) eating plan is a healthy dietary pattern. our object is to review surveys in the field of major components of dash diet and different kinds of cancers. materials and methods: our search result from pubmed search engine recruited to find related articles. results: adherence to the dash diet components was significantly related to lower p...

Research on vehicle longitudinal control with a stop and go system is presently one of the most important topics in the field of intelligent transportation systems. The purpose of stop and go systems is to assist drivers for repeatedly accelerate and stop their vehicles in traffic jams. This system can improve the driving comfort, safety and reduce the danger of collisions and fuel consumption....

Transgender/gender-nonconforming (GNC) individuals experience discrimination at high rates, including 19% in one study who reported having been refused medical care based on the their transgender/GNC identity. These individuals may also experience a lack of respect from medical personnel, a dearth of culturally competent knowledge and medical information around their medical needs, and concerns...

P. Krishna N. H. Vaidya D. K. Pradhan Computer Science Department Texas A&M University College Station, TX 77843-3112 Abstract In most research on checkpointing and recovery, it has been assumed that the processor halts immediately in response to any internal failure (fail-stop model). This paper presents a recovery scheme (independent checkpointing and message logging) for a multicomputer syst...

In this paper, we address the problem of power control in wireless queueing networks. We consider a discrete time (slotted) wireless system of single link. Data arrive in packets according to a Bernoulli process of rate λ. A simple ARQ (send and wait) retransmission policy is used for the transmission of packets. The control parameter in this system is the transmission power of a packet, which ...

Fault-tolerant behavior is an important non-finctional requirement for systems that involve high criticality. We present a framework which allows the analysis of faulttolerant behavior to be undertaken. This framework is based on the notion of state machines and tolerance relations. Results concerning fault-tolerant behavior of finite-state machines are presented and an illustrative example is ...

Infrared Data Association has developed the Advanced Infrared (AIr) protocol standard for infrared wireless LANs. AIr employs a Go-Back-N automatic repeat request (ARQ) scheme at the Link Control layer to deal with transmission errors. Alternatively, an optional Stop-and-Wait ARQ scheme at the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer may be employed. The effectiveness of employing the optional Stopand...

We study the problem of unconditionally reliable message transmission (URMT), where two non-faulty players, the sender S and the receiver R are part of a synchronous network modeled as a directedhypergraph, a part of which may be under the influence of an adversary having unbounded computingpower. S intends to transmit a message m to R, such that R should correctly obtain S’s messag...
