AIMS To determine whether change in employment status (from fixed term to permanent employment) is followed by changes in work, health, health related behaviours, and sickness absence. METHODS Prospective cohort study with four year follow up. Data from 4851 (710 male, 4141 female) hospital employees having a fixed term or permanent job contract on entry to the study were collected at baselin...

Mobile computing is a new emerging computing paradigm posing many challenging data management problems. We identify these new challenges and investigate their technical signi cance. New research problems include management of location dependent data, frequent disconnections, structuring distributed algorithms for mobile hosts, wireless data broadcasting, and energy e cient data access.

in this manuscript, we prove some coupled fixed point theoremsfor two pairs of self mappings satisfying contractive conditions of integraltype in generalized metric spaces. we furnish suitable illustrative examples.in this manuscript, we prove some coupled fixed point theoremsfor two pairs of self mappings satisfying contractive conditions of integraltype in generalized metric spaces. we furnis...

in this note we point out and rectify some errors in a recently published paper “n. singh, r. jain: coupled fixed point results for weakly related mappings in partially ordered metric spaces, bull. iranian math. soc. 40 (2014), no. 1, 29-40”.

in the present paper‎, ‎we show the existence of a coupled fixed point for a non-decreasing mapping in partially ordered complete metric space using a partial order induced by an appropriate function $phi$‎. ‎we also define the concept of weakly related mappings on an ordered space‎. ‎moreover common coupled fixed points for two and three weakly related mappings are also proved in the same space‎.

Jennions et al. introduce the different kinds of sex ratio and their biology.

Stereo visual odometry has received little investigation in high altitude applications due to the generally poor performance of rigid stereo rigs at extremely small baseline-to-depth ratios. Without additional sensing, metric scale is considered lost and odometry is seen as effective only for monocular perspectives. This paper presents a novel modification to stereo based visual odometry that a...
