As the complexity of the modern VLSI design increases, logic rectification plays very important role for improving the speed and efficiency of design error correction. It is needed for both enabling efficient design revision and fixing implementation errors. This report introduces the general concept of logic rectification and compares the advantages and disadvantages of several different appro...

objective(s): in spect, the sinogram contains scatter and lack of attenuated counts that degrade the reconstructed image quality and quantity. many techniques for attenuation and scatter correction have been proposed. an acceptable method of correction is to incorporate effects into an iterative statistical reconstruction. here, we propose new maximum likelihood expectation maximization (mlem) ...

There is no clear study comparing the long-term outcome of either anterior or posterior fixation approaches for thoracolumbar fractures. To get a comparative analysis of the overall late outcome of both approaches, a total of 60 patients with unstable thoracolumbar fracture were classified into two groups; Group I (n=30) included those who were operated by posterior decompression and pedicle sc...

Background: Life expectancy of patients who underwent atrial switch operation for the transposition of the great arteries is relatively good. However, many patients are faced with residua and sequelae, which may hamper their functioning and quality of life. This multicenter study assessed the perceived health status, functional abilities and quality of life in long-term survivors of the Mustard...

Background/Aim. There are few research papers in Serbia reporting on the clinical results of scarf osteotomy and its long-term effects. The aim this retrospective study was to evaluate efficacy hallux valgus (HV) deformity correction, as well degree recurrence possible causes. Methods. included 48 patients (52 feet) who underwent osteotomy. Average follow-up time 103.9 months (63-156). In order...

Greenhouse gas emissions are believed to be the main reason of climate change. Thus, it is essential to limit and reduce emissions of greenhouse gases in order to stabilize climate. Short-term policies such as the Kyoto Protocol stipulate emission limitation or reduction commitments. However, it is also, if not more, important to keep an eye on the long-term effects of these policies since it t...

The need for higher data rates is ever rising as wireless communication standards move from the third to the fourth generation. Turbo-Codes are the prevalent channel codes for wireless systems due to their excellent forward error correction capability. So far research has mainly focused on components of high throughput Turbo-Decoders. To the best of our knowledge, no complete Turbo-Decoder syst...
