Three interacting tools to assist distributed memory programmers in developing, optimising and understanding application performance have been developed. These tools perform automatic code generation from an initial workload speciication, performance prediction using memory hierarchy simulation, and performance visualisation for distributed memory message passing applications. Their combination...

Small organisations can now have access to high raw processing power using networks of workstations (NOW) as parallel computing platforms. Distributed Virtual Shared Memory (DVSM) packages have been developed to facilitate the programming of such systems. However, because of the high interprocess latencies in a NOW, the performance of a DVSM application is more susceptible to the partitioning o...

Physiological studies confirm improvement of memory by Olibanum, a resin from Boswellia species, while little is known about the molecular mechanism by which it affects memory performance. Two master transcription factors, CREB-1 and CREB-2, regulate downstream memory-related genes expression, leading to the long-term memory potentiation. This study addresses the effects of Beta-boswellic acid ...

Many of the problems considered in optimization and learning assume that solutions exist in a dynamic. Hence, algorithms are required that dynamically adapt with the problem’s conditions and search new conditions. Mostly, utilization of information from the past allows to quickly adapting changes after. This is the idea underlining the use of memory in this field, what involves key design issue...

Objective: According to the declarative/procedural model, the semantic aspect of language depends on the brain structures responsible for declarative memory. The word pairs task is a common tool for evaluating declarative memory. The current study aimed to design a valid and reliable task for evaluating declarative memory in Persian children at learning and retention stages and to investigate i...

Introduction: The Widespread range of mobile phone application in life has induced many problems in the societies. This subject has caused jammer router is used in some places. Jammer router blocks signal transfer from base station to the cell phone. In the other hand, the extensive application of electromagnetic field in all aspect of life has increased fears and worries about...

In the last two decades, there has been an increasing interest in structural engineering control methods. Shape memory alloys and seismic isolation systems are examples of passive control systems that use of any one alone, effectively improve the seismic performance of the structure. Characteristics such as large strain range without any residual deformation, high damping capacity, excellent re...

Background: Opioids have been shown to affect learning and memory processes. Different protocols of morphine withdrawal can substantially vary in their success to prevent opioid induced impairments of cognitive performance. In the present study, we report the effects of single and repetitive ultra-rapid detoxification (URD) on spatial learning and memory in morphine addicted rats. Methods: Morp...
