background and objectives: medical tourism tourism is emerging as a fast growing healthcare industry with the potential to open a new economic opportunity for developing countries. iran has been the treatment destination of many medical tourists from middle eastern countries for many years, yet this field of services remains underdeveloped. the best judges for the challenges facing development ...

In this paper, we propose a new minimum total communication distance (TCD) algorithm and an optimal TCD algorithm for broadcast in a 2-dimension mesh. The former generates a minimum TCD from a given source node, and the latter guarantees a minimum TCD among all the possible source nodes. These algorithms can be generalized to a d-dimensional mesh or torus. TCD can potentially be used as a measu...

This paper presents a deadlock-free algorithm for multicast routing in a faulty hypercube when some of the links have failed. Wormhole routing is assumed for message communication and the number of faulty links is assumed to be fewer than the dimension of the hypercube to ensure the faulty network is not segmented. The performance of the algorithm is analyzed through simulation experiments whic...
