Consistency and optimality of block bootstrap schemes for distribution and variance estimation of smooth functionals of dependent data have been thoroughly investigated by Hall, Horowitz & Jing (1995), among others. However, for nonsmooth functionals, such as quantiles, much less is known. Existing results, due to Sun & Lahiri (2006), regarding strong consistency for distribution and variance e...

This paper considers two well-known selective-repeat retransmission schemes, namely, hybrid typeI ARQ and hybrid type-II ARQ, using convolutional coding, in conjunction with maximum-likelihood code combining. Our theoretical analysis, based upon the concept of generalized weight distribution, shows that the use of code combining yields a significant throughput at very high channel error rates n...

a randomized complete block design with three replications was performed in rice research institute of iran, rasht in 2008, to find the effect of supplement foliar application of nitrogen and potassium on ’daylam‘ hybrid rice grain yield, its components and grain protein percentage. foliar application of 20 kg nitrogen (5 percent n) and 15 kg potassium (3 percent k2o) in different pre-anthesis ...

to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...

pistachio is the most important nut that is produced in iran. little research has been done to examine the effect of ucb1-hybride rootstock plants as tissue culture for pistachios (2011 in toba company).this study aims to evaluate three pistachio varieties on ucb1 hybrid rootstock.  the experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design with three treatment groups (including ohadi, ...

Computer simulations of experimentally comparable system sizes in soft matter often require considerable elapsed times. The use many cores can reduce the needed time, ideally proportionally to number processors. In this paper a parallel computational method using coarray Fortran is implemented and tested for large systems purely block copolymer melts, as well nanocomposites. A satisfactory stro...
