the purpose of this study was to probe the effect of metacognitive strategy instruction through dialogic interaction on the reading comprehension performance and metacognitive awareness of iranian efl learners. the data were collected through the survey of reading strategies (sors) and a reading test to examine changes in metacognitive awareness and reading performance before and after the inte...

This paper describes a microthreaded, multiprocessor and presents simulations from a single processor implementation. The microthreaded approach obtains threads from a single context and exploits both vector and instruction level parallelism (ILP). Threaded code can be generated from sequential code, where loops may be transformed into families of, possibly dependent, concurrent threads. Instru...

the current article was an attempt to investigate the effect of semantic mapping strategy instruction on reading comprehension performance of efl learners. to this end, thirty homogeneous iranian intermediate efl learners attending a language school in bonab, iran, were randomly assigned to two groups, one as the experimental and the other as the control. the experimental group received instruc...

small-scale dairy farming in bangladesh is constrained mostly due to acute shortage, high price and seasonal fluctuation of energy and protein supplements. poor economic conditions of dairy farmers do not allow them to purchase adequate conventional energy and protein supplements. locally available non-conventional energy and protein sources can be used as alternatives, cheaper than conventiona...

Dynamic instruction scheduling logic is one of the most critical and cycle-limiting structures in modern superscalar processors, and it is not easily pipelined without significant losses in performance. However, these performance losses are incurred only due to a small fraction of instructions, which are intolerant to the non-atomic scheduling. We first perform an empirical analysis of the inst...

The present study aimed to examine and compare the impact of teaching economic terms through etymological elaboration with three more conventional methods of vocabulary instruction in ESP courses in Iran, that is, teaching through contextual definitions, L1 translation, and implicit instruction on the learners' general comprehension of economic texts and their understanding of author's opinion....
