objectives: stroke, is one of the major causes of disability in adults. so, the patient may prefer to use the non-involved limb to perfom selfcare & named this phenomen learned non used. constraint induced therapy is one of the rehabilitative interventions that can be effective in restoration of the function of the involved limb in some hemiparetic post stroke patients. purpose of this study wa...

background: in the recent years nanostructured materials have been the focus of researches due to their wide-spread possibilities to provide new shapes and structures for some materials. microemulsions can provide uniform nano-sized droplets for templating. microemulsions are isotropic, thermodynamically-stable systems of oil, water and surfactant with a 20-200 nm droplet size. they can be prep...

A novel procedure to find cost-optimal sensor networks is proposed. Cost is minimized subject to qualibing constraints that are related to certain requirements of data reconciliation. One basic qualibing constraint is a desired level of precision of reconciled values for a selected set of variables. Since precision requirements lead to multiple solutions, other qualifying constraints are propos...

This paper addresses the complexity of scheduling problems considering two jobs to schedule and availability constraints imposed on the machines. A polynomial algorithm called temporized geometric approach is first proposed for the minimization of the makespan, under the non-preemption constraint. Then, a generalization to the preemptive case is developed. These algorithms are extensions of the...

AE3srR4cr. The viewing system parameters probably have to be explicitly taken into consideration in formulating computational solutions to the stereoscopic matching problem in binocular vision. An algorithm for computing the directions of gaze from purely visual information without a prior solution to the correspondence problem is outlined. It would seem that the availability of such (or simila...

UNLABELLED Cluster and set-cover algorithms are developed to obtain a set of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that can represent all the known SNPs in a chromosomal region, subject to the constraint that all SNPs must have a squared correlation R2>C with at least one tag SNP, where C is specified by the user.

SUMMARY sORF finder is a program package for identifying small open reading frames (sORFs) with high-coding potential. This application allows the identification of coding sORFs according to the nucleotide composition bias among coding sequences and the potential functional constraint at the amino acid level through evaluation of synonymous and non-synonymous substitution rates.
