In this paper, based on a thorough analysis of different policies for DAG scheduling, an improved algorithm ICPDP (Improved Critical Path using Descendant Prediction) is introduced. The algorithm performs well with respect to the total scheduling time, the schedule length and load balancing. In addition, it provides efficient resource utilization, by minimizing the idle time on the processing e...

The methanol extract isolated from hermit crab, D. avarus degenerated ovarion and uterine tissues in cyclic and pregnant mice, treated before and after the implantation. Immunohistochemical staining using CD31 and Factor VIII specific to endothelial cells showed reduction in microvessel density. The hormonal assay showed decrease in the progesterone secretion in all experimental mice.

Methods 10 healthy subjects were studied at 1.5 Tesla. LV shortaxis radial strain ErrSAX was derived from SSFP cine images using dedicated CMR-FT software (Diogenes MRI prototype, Tomtec, Germany) at rest and during dobutamine stress (10 and 20 μg * kg-1* min-1). Natural radial strain values (loge [End-systolic wall thickness/ end-diastolic wall thickness]) were calculated in identical segments...

BACKGROUND Dobutamine stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (DS-CMR) is an established tool to assess hibernating myocardium and ischemia. Analysis is typically based on visual assessment with considerable operator dependency. CMR myocardial feature tracking (CMR-FT) is a recently introduced technique for tissue voxel motion tracking on standard steady-state free precession (SSFP) images to ...

conclusions the streptomyces sp. suk 25 culturing was optimized using thronton media, at ph 7 and aeration of 140 rpm. further isolation and identification of bioactive compounds will develop anti-mrsa therapeutics. materials and methods disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) assay were used to determine the antibacterial activity of streptomyces sp. isolates. optimization of...
