background: intracerebral  hemorrhage (ich) is the  most fatal subtype  of stroke.  despite  limited effective therapy, there  is no  accepted clinical grading  scale to  predict  in- hospital  mortality,  especially  in developing  nations.  the purpose  of this study was to assess the  predictors  of in- hospital mortality among a sample of iranian patients  with spontaneous ich for use at th...

In large-scale assessments such as state-wide testing programs, national sample-based surveys and international comparative studies, there are many steps involved in the measurement and reporting of student achievement. Typically, the steps involved include the following:  Items are developed and test instruments are assembled;  Student samples are selected (for sample-based surveys);  Tests...

The influence of cultural background on people’s privacy decisions is widely recognized. However, a cross-cultural approach to predicting privacy decisions is still lacking. Our paper presents a first integrated cross-cultural privacy prediction model that merges cultural, demographic, attitudinal and contextual prediction. The model applies supervised machine learning to users’ decisions on th...

The standard methods used for analysing the reliability of electronic systems are unsuited to VLSI systems because of their large-scale and software-driven nature. In this paper, a review of the problems is presented together with an analysis of the difficulties encountered in extrapolation of the present techniques. Some proposals are presented with the intention of making the solution more ma...

Innovation in infant disciplines occurs most rapidly and successfully when a large number of small groups proceed independently under the motivation of market opportunity. In a few years, a substantial fraction of the engineering work force will have a working knowledge of LSI design. At the same time, fabrication areas are becoming more and more capital intensive. What is needed is a clean, st...

A new fault tolerant multipipeline array architecture and its diagnosis/reconfiguration algorithm will be presented. This multipipeline array design methodology is characterized by constant, fault distribution independent interstage path lengths. Other features include a low hardware overhead and a high survival rate when it is compared to existing approaches.

General VLSI Cell placement has gone through different versions depending upon the particular applications. The area under modern challenges of VLSI desgin throw light on Power minimization, Thermal capacity and Area occupation. Thus Utility function, Renewal reward and Hypergraph setup are utilized in our discussion. A brief review is given in this paper . .
