Motivated by recent best case analyses for some sorting algorithms and based on the type of complexity we partition the algorithms into two classes: homogeneous and non-homogeneous algorithms.1 Although both classes contain algorithms with worst and best cases, homogeneous algorithms behave uniformly on all instances. This partition clarifies in a completely mathematical way the previously ment...

Introduction: In recent years, modern microscopic imaging in parallel with digital image processing techniques, have facilitated computerized semen analysis. However, in these methods, distinguishing sperms from other semen particles can be hampered by low contrast of microscopic images and the possibility of neighboring sperms touching each other. Materials and Methods: This article introduced...

histamine h3 receptor subtype has been the target of several recent drug development programs. quantitative structure-activity relationship (qsar) methods are used to predict the pharmaceutically relevant properties of drug candidates whenever it is applicable. the aim of this study was to compare the predictive powers of three different qsar techniques, namely, multiple linear regression (mlr)...

   Transmission era from tradition to modernity has been accompanied by cultural, economic, social and political changes. Rapid Social and Cultural changes of recent decades in developing countries, including Iran, have affected the Social and Cultural Values of Parents and children and have caused what is named as “Generation Gap”. The purpose of this paper is to designate the relationship bet...

The demand of self-testing proportionally increases with memory size in System on Chip (SoC). SoC architecture normally occupies the majority of its area by memories. Due to increase in density of embedded memories, there is a need of self-testing mechanism in SoC design. Therefore, this research study focuses on this problem and introduces a smooth solution for self-testing.  In the proposed m...

We present a fault-independent redundancy identification algorithm. The controllabilities and observabilities are defined as Boolean variables and represented on an implication graph. A major enhancement over previously published results is that we include all direct and partial implications, as well as node fixation. The transitive closure, whose computation now requires a new algorithm, provi...
