Intermunicipal cooperation (IMC) is often used as a mean to reap scale benefits. Most studies on the effects of IMC focus cost savings, while service quality overlooked. In this study, set input in characterized by high asset specificity and need for redundancy: emergency primary care. We analyze how mode governance affect performance (1) measuring whether versus single-municipal production aff...

in order to investigate effective factors on bread waste and determine effect genial of each factor on probability of being each family in three categories of low-medium, high and extra high bread waste, the order logit model and the 352 families data from mashad city were taken in use. the samples have been selected using a simple random sampling method. the survey of marginal effect in order ...

We have completed a 21-cm survey of a 600 square degree region of the Centaurus A group of galaxies at a redshift of ∼500 km s−1 as part of a larger survey of the entire southern sky. This group of galaxies was recently the subject of a separate and thorough optical survey (Côté et al. 1997), and thus presented an ideal comparison for us to test the survey performance. We have identified 10 new...

clustering is the process of dividing a set of input data into a number of subgroups. the members of each subgroup are similar to each other but different from members of other subgroups. the genetic algorithm has enjoyed many applications in clustering data. one of these applications is the clustering of images. the problem with the earlier methods used in clustering images was in selecting in...

background: one of the medical team’s responsibilities is to teach the methods of rescue and aid necessary for casualties who have been injured in disasters. they must be taken away of the place of disaster, transferred, categorized and cured. methods: delphi technique was used in this research. firstly, a number of questions were framed and sent to a number of experts of different majors. they...

Chemical hardness () and absolute electronegativity () have important applications in chemistry. Inthe conceptual Density Functional theory (DFT), these concepts has been associated with electronicenergy and the relationship with ionization energy (I) and electron affinity (A) of these concepts hasbeen given. In this study, graphical method was used in order to see the relationship with the ato...

Subset Difference Revocation (SDR) [7] has been proposed to perform group rekeying in a stateless manner. However, statelessness comes at a cost in terms of key storage and messaging overhead when the number of currently active members is much smaller than the number of potential group members [3]. In this paper, we propose a dynamic SDR scheme to address these two problems. Briefly, rather tha...

Introduction The International Academy of Health Sciences Informatics (IAHSI) is established by International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA) which is the world body for health and biomedical informatics. The Academy will serve as an honor society that recognizes expertise in biomedical and health informatics internationally. Academy membership will be one of the highest honors in the in...
