background: laparoscopy or minimally invasive surgery is a surgical procedure in which laparoscope and other surgical instruments are inserted inside body via a few small incisions. laparoscope is used to look inside the patient's body and records displayed images. temporal segmentation of laparoscopic videos has many applications like detecting laparoscopic anomalies and interrupts. it is prer...

this study was conducted to evaluate the share of cost factors affecting on final cost of broiler live weight per kilogram in tehran province. data were collected through questionnaires. farms were divided to three cost ranges: less than 35,000, between 35,000 to 40,000, and over 40000 rails based on production cost per kg of live weight. in this study, water and additives, staff, vaccines, tra...

To prevent an exploit, the security analyst must implement a suitable countermeasure. In this paper, we consider cost-sensitive attack graphs (CAGs) for network vulnerability analysis. In these attack graphs, a weight is assigned to each countermeasure to represent the cost of its implementation. There may be multiple countermeasures with different weights for preventing a single exploit. Also,...

this study was conducted to evaluate consumption inputs, production costs, nutrient composition and performance in production of alfalfa hay and alfalfa silage. therefore, data on alfalfa hay production were collected from 75 farms in zanjan province, using a face to face questionnaire in the year 2012. a systematic random sampling method was used. then, two farms managed by silage harvesting s...

An attempt is made to translate five generic key performance indicators (KPIs) into a continuous real-time cost function in batch order-based manufacturing environment. The challenge of controlling and optimizing resource utilization, production efficiency, product-process quality, environmental impact, inventory was specified by microelectronics hard metal composite manufacturers. motivation f...
