addiction to the illicit and prescribed use of opiate is an alarming public health issue. studies on addictive disorders have demonstrated severe nutritional deficiencies in opiate abusers with behavioral, physiological and cognitive symptoms. opiate addiction is also link with a significant number of diseases including human immunodeficiency virus (hiv), hepatitis c virus (hcv) and other blood...

Telecommunication companies have received a great deal of research attention, which have many advantages such as low cost, higher qualification, simple installation and maintenance, and high reliability. However, the using of technical maintenance approaches in Telecommunication companies could improve system reliability and users' satisfaction from Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) ser...

Single-cell transcriptomics has recently emerged as one of the most promising tools for understanding the diversity of the transcriptome among single cells. Image-based transcriptomics is unique compared to other methods as it does not require conversion of RNA to cDNA prior to signal amplification and transcript quantification. Thus, its efficiency in transcript detection is unmatched by other...

Materialized XML views are a popular technique for integrating data from possibly distributed and heterogeneous data sources. However, the problem of the incremental maintenance of such XML views poses new challenges which to date remain unaddressed. One, XML views not only filter the data, but may radically restructure it to construct new XML nested document structures. Moreover, order is inhe...

This work has two important goals. The first one is to present a novel methodology for preventive maintenance policy evaluation based upon a cost-reliability model, which allows the use of flexible intervals between maintenance interventions. Such innovative features represents an advantage over the traditional methodologies as it allows a continuous fitting of the schedules in order to better ...

One of the most important factors for the sustainable development of any country is the quality and efficiency of its transportation system. The principled and accurate maintenance of roads, in addition to having a major impact on budget savings, improves the quality and service levels of the transportation system. For this reason, road management and maintenance are the main pillars of the tra...

This study aims to describe the collaboration for prevention and control of COVID-19 in Baubau City. research is important because there are problems dynamics collaboration, especially related maintenance, as well uniqueness that occurs. The design used was qualitative with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques using observation, interviews, documents. data analysis technique uses ...

Nowadays, more and more manufacturers realize the importance of adopting new maintenance technologies to enable systems to achieve near-zero downtime, so machinery prognostics that enables this paradigm shift from traditional fail-and-fix maintenance to a predict-and-prevent paradigm has arose interests from researchers. Machinery prognostics which could estimate machine condition and degradati...
