Aveh archaeological site, which has prepared the necessary background for the archaeological studiesafter having been identified and registered, is located in Saveh Plain, and it is one of the less-known sitesin the Iranian Central Plateau. The chronological sequence of this site extends from prehistoric periodstill Timurid time. It is worth mentioning that here, except for the Islamic settleme...

Even though real-time data access to remote sensor data is desirable for many WSN applications, collecting remote data reliably from a WSN is a challenging task since many components of the WSN are subject to harsh elements of nature. A deployed system’s performance and lifetime can be impaired if this harsh environment of the deployment site is not considered. The deployments of LUSTER, a WSN ...

Hair shine or luster is perceived as an important, though analytically somewhat elusive, attribute of beauty, primarily associated with clean and healthy hair. Principles for the assessment of hair luster are developed that are consistent with the practical situation. These principles are related to the components of light, specularly and diffusely reflected from single hair fibers, as measured...

Hair luster is one of the most important parameters of visual appearance perceived by consumers. Current luster formulae (TRI, Reich-Robbins, ...) are optimized for goniophotometric measurements. They are based on a mathematical decomposition of reflected light into specular and diffused light and the meaurement of the shine peak width on the fitted angular distributions. In this expose, we are...

Still today, the development of e ective and high-quality so ware tests is an expensive and very labor intensive process. It demands a high amount of problem awareness, domain knowledge and concentration from human so ware testers. Therefore, any technology that can help reduce the manual e ort involved in the so ware testing process – while ensuring at least the same level of quality – has the...
