In the present investigation antimicrobial activity of six different plant essential oils i.e., citrus (Citrus lemon), olive (Olea europaea), ajwain (Trachiyspirum ammi), almond (Amygdalus communis), Bavchi (Psoralea corylifolia) and neem (Azadirachta indica) oils have been evaluated. After bioassays, most of the essential oils were found susceptible to both Gram-positive bacteria such as Lacto...

Virtual machines (VMs) are the main scheduling and management objects of cloud computing platform. Currently, it is short of an efficient scheduling strategy for virtual machines’ motion (VMotion) to guarantee their QoS and avoid the ‘rolling snowball effect’ of whole cloud platform with high resource occupation rate. In this paper, we present our VMotion scheduling strategy based on the analys...

It is widely known and accepted that multicarrier communication is effective in frequency selective channels if resource allocation strategies are used, namely per-subcarrier adaptive modulation and coding. We discuss its efficiency for uniform resource allocation in terms of fundamental information-theoretic measures. These results are relevant to broadcast systems and, more generally, systems...

To detect POCl3 molecule, adsorption phenomena of this molecule on the pure, Al- and Si-doped BN sheet surfaces were investigated via density functional theory (DFT) approach. The most stable adsorption complexes, including POCl3/BN (O-B), POCl3/Al-BN (O-Al), and POCl3/Si-BN (O-Si), were predicted with the adsorption energies of about -8.64, -37.01 and, -62.01 kcal mol-1, respectively. Upon the...

Wild almond (Amygdalus scoparia) is one of the most important species that provides a variety of ecological functions in the Zagros forest ecosystem. In this study, we investigated the effects of some seed treatments on the survival and growth of Amygdalus scoparia after seed planting at different aspects and elevations under natural conditions. The seed pretreatments consisted in soaking them ...

[1] A fresh, 1.85 km diameter impact crater in the midlatitudes of Mars (38°N) named Vaduz exhibits distinctive crater‐related geological subunits (facies) extending up to ∼15 radii from the rim crest and perched >10 m above the adjacent plains. Knobby terrain fringing and underlying the facies is interpreted as degraded thermal contraction crack polygons, consistent with an ice‐rich mantle bur...

Integrated resource planning (IRP) is a new way for utilities and state regulatory commissions to consistently assess a variety of demand and supply resources to cost-effectively meet customer energy-service needs. This paper reviews recent progress in IRP and identifies the need for additional work by utilities, regulatory commissions, and other organizations. Kevwords: demand-side management,...

The hydropericardium in chickens is most common Isfahan and Chcharmahal-va-Bakhtiyari, Iran. For this, the study was achieved for investigation of adenovirus role induction these regions. In this study, 20 broiler flocks suspected to were sampled from fluid. Then, DNA extracted amplified by specific primers. fragment detection AV 896 bp. results showed that 10 flocks, 47 200 samples positive AV...
