in this paper a practical method for tropospheric effects on gps derived coordinates in absolute mode is presented. gps observations at the permanent gps stations can be used as source of information for the modeling. the developed model is a time-dependent model and as such differs from usual tropospheric models, which are based on atmospheric parameters, i.e. temperature, pressure and humidit...

Up-to-date detection of a building's responses under various load situations is essential to generate data used assess its capacity bear crucial loads. This study presents an innovative and effective method detect structural displacements provide more accurate alternative existing approaches such as trigonometry leveling angle intersecting. The least squares was produce concurrent solution that...

the data were collected from 1992 to 2009 in burri, white boni and black boni sheep maintained at the regional research station in the central highlands of yemen. data were analyzed to study the effects of environmental and genetic factors on body weight and growth rate from birth to weaning. the least square means for body weights (bw) were 2.54, 2.18 and 2.26 kg for birth; 12.49, 10.58 and 11...

In this paper, we show an improved bound and new algorithm for the online square-into-square packing problem. This twodimensional packing problem involves packing an online sequence of squares into a unit square container without any two squares overlapping. The goal is to find the largest area α such that any set of squares with total area α can be packed. We show an algorithm that can pack an...

FOREWORD The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Wireless Roadside Inspection (WRI) Program is demonstrating the feasibility and value of electronically assessing truck and motorcoach driver and vehicle safety at least 25 times more often than is possible using only physical roadside inspections. WRI Pilot Tests were conducted to prototype, test, and demonstrate the feasibility ...

While the advertisements shown by television stations pay for the content that the stations provide, most of us would rather not watch them. This paper describes a system called mythcomm that attempts to make removing them easy through a visualization. We want to do this quickly, since it would be as worthwhile to simply watch the commercials if it took too long. Mythcomm takes advantage of the...
