The maximum speedup of direct parallelization of pattern-growth mining algorithms for long sequences is limited by the load imbalance among the parallel tasks. In this paper, we present a scheme to parallelize pattern-growth mining algorithms using partial enumeration for high speedup. The experimental results show that partial enumeration increases the achievable speedup of parallel mining sig...

The goal of this study was to examine whether growth delay can serve as an index of allostatic load during early development, as it is well known that the activity of stress-mediating systems inhibits growth. The participants were children adopted internationally from institutional care (n = 36), children adopted internationally from foster care (n = 26), and nonadopted children (n = 35). For t...

Energy is one of the most important and essential source of life for the mankind. Among all types of sources, Electrical Energy is basis for development in any society or nation. In India substantial and sustained economic growth is creating enormous demand for electric energy. To meet the demand, many electrical power generating plants were installed, yet the gap between demand and supply has ...

objective(s): htlv-i and hiv virus quantification is an important marker for assessment of virus activities. since there is a direct relationship between the number of virus and disease progression, htlv- i and hiv co-infection might have an influence on the development of viral associated diseases, thus, viral replication of these viruses and co-infection were evaluated.   materials and method...

in this paper, power system restoration in the presence of svc and tcsc in partial outage conditions is considered and a new method for maximum load restoration using different control variables is presented. control variables are tap of transformers, generation rescheduling and operating points of facts devices. objective function is restored load (to be maximized) and constraints are voltage ...

Landsman, Anna, David Lichtstein, and Asher Ilani. Distinctive features of dietary phosphate supply. J Appl Physiol 99: 1214–1219, 2005. First published May 26, 2005; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00095.2005.— Dietary phosphate has profound effects on growth and renal handling of the compound. On the basis of changes in growth rate and food intake, after alterations in phosphate load, our laboratory...

Abstract: To ensure the rail transportations safety, evaluation of fatigue behavior of the rail steel is necessary. High cycle fatigue behaviour of a rail steel was the subject of investigation in this research using fracture mechanics. Finite element method (FEM) was used for analyzing the distribution of the stresses on the rail, exerted by the external load. FEM analysis showed that the ...

Different modified atmosphere conditions with various CO2 concentrations on microbial load (psychrophile, mesophile aerobic and anaerobic bacteria) and physico-chemical properties of barramundi (Lates  calcarifer Bloch) fillets stored at 8°C were compared to determine the best packaging conditions. The gas conditions evaluated were 100% CO2 (M1), 75% CO2/25% N2 (M2), 50% CO2/50% N2 (M3), 25% CO...

The expansion and growth of cities is a remarkable phenomenon in urban planning literature,so that unpredictable developments have become more evident in recent decades, especially in cities that haveundergone changes in their physical structure following the promotion of their political role. The present paper seeksto identify the factors driving growth in the developed areas of Ardebil city a...
