Objectives: “Patient-reported outcome measures” has been used extensively, and it shown the diseases’ impact on patient quality of life enabled clinician to evaluate clinical care efficacy. In literature, there are more than 34 shoulder function assessment scoring instruments; Modified Constant Murley Score (M-CMS) is one most popular scores. Although, M-CMS had translated culturally adapted Da...

Stream ciphers in general tend to be weak since they lack the benefit of diffusion. It is for this reason alone that the Vigenère cipher is able to be cracked. Without the ability to detect cycles, and intern, derive the key length, the Vigenère cipher would be highly secure. By adding a few bits of random padding to each byte, one can diffuse the statistical retentiveness found within most mes...

Antnet is an agent based routing algorithm that is influenced from the unsophisticated and individual ant’s emergent behaviour. Ants (software agents) are used in antnet to collect information and to update the probabilistic distance vector routing table entries. Modified antnet algorithm has been introduced, which improve the throughput and average delay. Results shows that by detecting and dr...

BACKGROUND Investigation of global clustering patterns across regions is very important in spatial data analysis. Moran's I is a widely used spatial statistic for detecting global spatial patterns such as an east-west trend or an unusually large cluster. Here, we intend to improve Moran's I for evaluating global clustering patterns by including the weight function in the variance, introducing a...
