IN THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME (R)-dimeth-yl{2-[1-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)eth-oxy]eth-yl}aza-nium (R,R)-3-carb-oxy-2,3-dihy-droxy-propano-ate), C(17)H(23)N(2)O(+)·C(4)H(5)O(6) (-), the doxylaminium cation is protonated at the N atom. The tartrate monoanions are linked by short, almost linear O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains extended along [100]. These chains are inter-linked by anion-pyr...

In many scienti c and commercial applications such as Earth Observation System (EOSDIS) and mobile phone services tracking a large number of clients, it is a daunting task to archive and index ever increasing volume of complex data that are continuously added to databases. To eÆciently manage multidimensional data in scienti c and data warehousing environments, R-tree based index structures hav...

In this paper, we present a new approach to deal with the noise inherent in the microarray image processing procedure. We use the denoising capabilities of decimated and undecimated multiwavelet transforms, DMWT and UMWT respectively, for the removal of noise from microarray data. Multiwavelet transforms, with appropriate initialization, provide sparser representation of signals than wavelet tr...

BACKGROUND To determine the effect of opium smoking cessation on the frequency and type of microorganisms in the nasopharynx of opium smokers. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study performed in psychology and ENT department of Moradi Hospital of Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences in 2008 (Kerman, Iran). Nasopharyngeal cultures were taken from 50 opium smokers before and 2 to 3 months...

Plant identification is very important in control design. The relay method belongs among special kinds of experimental frequency response identification. It was originally used for plant identification by Rotach (Rotač, 1964) and lately also for controller autotuning, see reference (Åstrőm & Wittenmark, 1989; Åstrőm, 1993; Åstrőm & Hägglund, 1995; Bi et al., 1997; Hang et al., 1993; Lu et al., ...

We present a system for efficient indexed querying of XML documents, enhanced with sibling operations. R-tree index proposed in [5] has a very high cost for the following-sibling and precedingsibling axes. We develop a family of index structures, which we refer to as transformed split-tree indexes, to address this problem, in which (i) XML data is horizontally split by a simple, yet efficient c...
