We introduce a proper framework of coding problems for a quantum memoryless channel and derive an asymptotic formula for the channel capacity, based upon the philosophy that any information theory shall be constructed in terms of observable quantities. Some general lower and upper bounds for the quantum channel capacity are also derived.

using the electrostatic capacity of a condenser, the existence of a distance function on a finsler space is discussed. this distance function divides finsler spaces into the two classes, denoted here by i and ii. the topology generated by this distance on the finsler spaces of class ii coincides with its intrinsic topology. this work provides a natural extension of mathematical analysis tools n...

the changing context for agricultural development has highlighted a strong need to understand and adoptinnovation systems thinking. science, technology and innovation policy has equated rural development toagricultural development. the main objective of this paper was to examine the role of innovation capacity inagricultural sector. with the growing diversification of rural livelihood options i...

the study determined the willingness and capacity of poultry farmers to pay for extension services in nasarawa state, nigeria. at this research used a sample size of 120 poultry farmers. simple descriptive statistics, kuppuswamy scale and logit regression model were used data analysis. the results showed that majority of the poultry farmers (87.5%) indicated their willingness to pay for extensi...

background and objective: oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogensis of various diseases, including lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and atherosclerosis. total antioxidant capacity plays a significant role in the body’s antioxidant defense, so its assessment is a matter of the utmost importance. currently, assessment of this capacity is performed in various s...

although there are remarkable differences in drivers’ behavior as well as vehicles characteristics, road capacity estimationmethods in developing countries are same as developed ones. so, the discrepancy between the theoretical andpractical values of capacity is inevitable. although, capacity estimation methods can be classified based on numerousparameters, in developing countries, the availabi...

this study has been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the local made charcoal tubes against adsorption of benzene, toluene and xylene vapors. results indicate that desorption capacity and the recovery percentage decrease as the benzene, toluene and xylene concentrations and also relative humidity increase. it is concluded that the water vapor is the major interfere in the adsorption of...

conclusions this was the first study that focused on expanding resilience indicators, and presents a new framework to simplify assessment of resilience and safety of a complex system. results in this study, 29 factors affecting this indicator were determined using the delphi method; the scores of all factors were less than the scores of the best practice. on the other hand, the state of this in...

The Centers for Disease Prevention and Control's National Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) Program oversee CCC programs designed to develop and implement CCC plans via CCC coalitions, alliances, or consortia of program stakeholders. We reviewed 40 up-to-date plans for states and the District of Columbia in order to assess how capacity building and sustainability, two evidence-based practices ...
