Sheikh Safi mausoleum includes a number of buildings of different periods, which Shah Tahmasb first turned them into a single complex. Later, Shah Abbas amended this complex and added important buildings to it. In general, the great importance of this historical monument is reflected in its relationship with the Safavid dynasty.  According to the travelogues and tourists and historians’ writin...

vital pulp therapy (vpt) of permanent mature teeth is continuously ascertaining to be a more reliable endodontic treatment. the purpose of this case report was to describe successful vpt of a mature mandibular left first molar with concurrent hyperplastic pulpitis, internal root resorption and periradicular periodontitis in a 35-year-old male patient. after complete caries removal and access ca...

The size of an organism reflects its metabolic rate, growth rate, mortality, and other important characteristics; therefore, the distribution of body size is a major determinant of ecosystem structure and function. Body-size distributions often are multimodal, with several peaks of abundant sizes, and previous studies suggest that this is the outcome of niche separation: species from distinct p...

The concept of change simply entails the totality of ways in which a particular entity has grown better and grown worse. Five studies suggest that this is not how people actually understand it for themselves. Rather, when asked to assess how they have "changed" over time, people bring to mind only how they have improved and neglect other trajectories (e.g., decline) that they have also experien...

We study the conditional sojourn time distributions of processor sharing (PS), foreground background processor sharing (FBPS) and shortest remaining processing time first (SRPT) scheduling disciplines on an event where the job size of a customer arriving in stationarity is smaller than exactly k ≥ 0 out of the preceding m ≥ k arrivals. Then, conditioning on the preceding event, the sojourn time...

This paper describes a method of performance evaluation and remaining life prediction for an aged reinforced concrete (RC) T-girder bridge by J-BMS RC version via close visual inspection data, and also verifies the assessment results obtained as outputs from the Bridge Rating Expert System (RC-BREX) which is a subsystem of the J-BMS, to evaluate the effectiveness of the system. The Bridge Manag...

1 Algorithms for a Single Machine We show that simple greedy algorithms are optimal for some scheduling problems on a single machine with release dates and preemptions. SRPT Rule: At each moment, process the job with the shortest remaining processing time. Note that the implementation of SRPT is possible only when preemptions are allowed. Theorem 1.1 ((1]) SRPT rule is optimal for 1jr j ; pmtnj...
