Spatial joins are fundamental in spatial databases. Over the last decade, the primary focus of research has been on joins with the predicate “region intersection.” In modern database applications involving geospatial data such as GIS, efficient evaluation of joins with other spatial predicates is yet to be fully explored. In addition, most existing join algorithms were developed for two-way joi...

A new method for the synthesis of 1H-indazoles from readily available N-tosylhydrazones and nitroaromatic compounds has been developed. This transformation occurs under transition-metal-free conditions and shows a wide substrate scope. The method has been successfully applied to the formal synthesis of a bioactive compound, WAY-169916.

introduction: the accuracy of analyzing functional mri (fmri) data is usually decreases in the presence of noise and artifact sources. a common solution in for analyzing fmri data having high noise is to use suitable preprocessing methods with the aim of data denoising. some effects of preprocessing methods on the parametric methods such as general linear model (glm) have previously been evalua...

This study was an attempt to investigate the effect of metacognitive strategies (MS) on speakingability of the learners and also what MS are specifically employed by learners when it comes todifferent task types. To this end, running a quasi-experimental study, 60 students at advancedlevel (female) from Shenia Language Institute in Sanandaj were randomly selected and given anOxford Placement Te...

This paper presents the results of an experiment aimed to evaluate the quality of different audio restoration algorithms based on different Short Time Spectral Attenuation methods. To single out the best computational methodologies for audio restoration an experiment was made, implementing a software (in DirectX plug-in form) which uses different algorithms. The software, working in real time, ...

We present two classes of distributed algorithms called DRBA and DOBA, for decentralized, proactive resource allocation in asynchronous real-time distributed systems. The objective of the algorithms is to maximize aggregate application benefit and deadlinesatisfied ratio for an user-specified future time interval. Since determining the optimal allocation is computationally intractable, the algo...

Multi-way joins improve performance by avoiding extra I/Os from multiple partitioning steps. There are several multi-way join algorithms proposed, and the research results are encouraging. However, commercial database systems are not currently using multi-way joins. Practical issues include modifying the optimizer and execution system to support multi-way operators and ensuring robust and relia...
