the corona product $gcirc h$ of two graphs $g$ and $h$ isobtained by taking one copy of $g$ and $|v(g)|$ copies of $h$;and by joining each vertex of the $i$-th copy of $h$ to the$i$-th vertex of $g$, where $1 leq i leq |v(g)|$. in thispaper, exact formulas for the eccentric distance sum and the edgerevised szeged indices of the corona product of graphs arepresented. we also study the conditions...

Mallon, Machery, Nichols and Stich (2009) argue that the use of intuitions in the philosophy of reference is problematic as recent studies show intuitions about reference vary both within and between cultures. I use some ideas from the recent literature on disagreement and truth relativism to shed light on the debate concerning the appropriate reaction to these studies. Mallon et al. argue that...

Abstract This article explores the Central Asian adaptation of ʿAqāʾid al-nisāʾ which has survived as a single copy within manuscript codex located at Beruni Institute Oriental Studies in Tashkent (Uzbekistan). Not only does lift ‘the iron curtain’ from little-known world rituals and customs practised by women early modern societies, it also serves an important source to balance androcentric vi...

We prospectively investigated the relationship between mtCN and the risk of lung cancer in 463 case-control pairs from two prospective cohort studies, the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study (HPFS). The adjusted least-squares means of log-transformed mtCN (log_mtCN) by smoking status were estimated by generalized linear models. Multivariable conditional logis...

Virtualization technology plays a great role in cloud computing. Virtualization supports creation and migration of virtual machines (VM) on physical hosts. Live migration provides the load balancing of virtual machine. One of the objectives of live migration is that it should have minimum migration time as well as downtime so that application running on VM will be suspended for negligible time....
