objective: soil organic carbon has been the most important soil quality measurement factors and has intense relation with soil physical, chemical and biological characteristics. organic matter and its components are important factors of soil aggregates constitution and stability and play significant role in its structure. so, this research has been done for achieving this purpose. methods: this...

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), including Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), cause opportunistic chronic pulmonary infections. Notably, MAC susceptibility is regulated by various factors, including the host immune system. Persimmon (Ebenaceae Diospyros kaki Thunb.) tannin is a condensed tannin composed of a polymer of catechin groups. It is well known that condensed tannins have high antioxi...

Using multiple channels in wireless sensor networks helps increase the overall throughput and avoid interferences. In addition, introducing multi-interface nodes further helps in increasing the packet delivery rate for those specific nodes. In this paper, we evaluate a channel allocation method based on neighborhood discovery up to 3 hops and a hybrid MAC protocol designed for high data rate wi...

— this paper offers a summary of hybrid MAC Protocols that square measure designed exploitation FDMA, TDMA and CSMA approaches, giving it the flexibility to adapt to traffic and topology changes. It adopts a TDMA/FDMA/CSMA approach to beat the downside that is facing as individual protocol exploitation single approach. ZMAC, IHMAC, IMAC, BAZ-MAC, PHMAC, ERMAC like these there square measure man...

In Wireless Ad hoc network, cooperation of nodes can be achieved by more interactions at higher protocol layers, particularly the MAC (Medium Access Control) and network layers play vital role. MAC facilitates a routing protocol based on position location of nodes at network layer specially known as Beacon-less geographic routing (BLGR) using Contention-based selection process. This paper propo...

This paper presents a merged multiplyaccumulate (MAC) hardware that is based on the modified Booth algorithm. The carry-save method is used in the Booth encoder, the Booth multiplier, and the accumulator sections to guarantee the fastest possible. By combining multiplication with accumulation and devising a hybrid type of carry save adder (CSA), the performance was improved. Also, the proposed ...

This paper presents a novel two-step retrieval method for semantic workflow cases, inspired by the MAC/FAC (many are called, but few are chosen) model proposed by Gentner and Forbus. MAC/FAC retrieval is motivated by the computational complexity of graph matching, which is usually involved in the similarity-based retrieval of workflows. An additional computationally efficient retrieval step (MA...
