Nowadays, no decisional tools allow to assess if an unforeseen customers demand variation should be accepted without creating material disruptions among a supply chain or not. The main difficulty consists in aggregating resources capacities, especially if resources perform different tasks with multiple items. This paper then proposes a data aggregation methodology based on graph analysis in ord...

In WSN, data aggregation is an important process for reducing the energy consumption. We can reduce energy consumption by using the efficient technique for data aggregation. Also, achieving the reliability and robustness of transferring data is one of the major issues and challenges. in order to produce both reliability and energy efficiency, in this paper we propose to design a Mobile Sink for...

Currently, the smartphone devices have become an essential part of our daily activities. Smartphone’ users run various applications (such as banking and e-health Apps), which contains very confidential information (e.g., credit card number its PIN). Typically, smartphone’s user authentication is achieved using mechanisms (password or security pattern) to verify identity. Although these are chea...

Background and Objectives: Recently, the use of probiotics for the treatment of Urinary Tract Infections has become more popular. The use of probiotics in therapy is useful as only a few side effects such as destruction of resistant bacteria or disturbance of the intestinal microbiota have been reported. The aim of this study was to evaluate the probiotic effects of lactic acid bacteria by co-a...

INTRODUCTION The male-to-female transgender (waria) is part of a key population at higher risk for HIV. This study aims to test whether psychosocial determinants as defined by the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) can explain behaviours related to condom use among waria. Three preparatory behaviours (getting, carrying, and offering a condom) and two condom use behaviours (during receptive and i...

In this paper, aggregation behaviors of aqueous solutions of short chain hydrophilic Ionic Liquids (ILs), 1 – allyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Amim]Cl), 1 - ethyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Emim]Cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl), 1 - butyl - 3 - methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim]BF4) were investigated using conductivity and laser ...

In our present investigation, a series of novel 4-methoxy-1,3-benzenediolyl-hydrazones were designed and synthesized, and their ability to inhibit platelet aggregation was evaluated by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and arachidonic acid (AA). The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectral data. Results demonstrated that the activities of all compounds excelled the positive d...

Aloe vera plant (A. vulgari and A. barbadensis) has being used traditionally as a medicinal plant for centuries. Gel from the inner central zone of the leaves and latex from pericyclic cells are used for medicinal purposes. The present study was conducted to elucidate the beneficial effects of Aloe vera juice on the platelet aggregation in cerebral microvessels of mice. Male mice were injected ...
