in 1979, a community health survey for the purpose of establishing population babe. services were conducted in the villages of region of isfahan with a population of about 10,000. the target group involved males and females with in the age group of more than one year old. the population under study, 617 males and 565 females who were selected by household random sampling, where examined for the...

background infections in critical care unit are high, and they are serious hospital problems. infections acquired during the hospital stay are generally called nosocomial infections, initially known as infections arising after 48 h of hospital admission. the mostfrequent nosocomial infections (urinary, respiratory, gastroenteritis and blood stream infection) were common in patients at hospital....

Traditional database management systems are best equipped to run onetime queries over finite stored data sets. However, many modern applications such as network monitoring, financial analysis, manufacturing, and sensor networks require long-running, or continuous, queries over continuous unbounded streams of data. In the STREAM project at Stanford, we are investigating data management and query...

While MPI is the most common mechanism for expressing parallelism, MPI programs remain poorly integrated in Unix environments. We introduce MPISH2, an MPI process manager analogous to serial Unix shells. It provides better integration capabilities for MPI programs by providing a uniform execution mechanism for parallel and serial programs, exposing return codes and standard I/O stream information.

pinch technology is one of the best methods for designing a multi stream heat exchanger(mshe) through a network; current pinch-based methods, however, lead to a larger and more complicateddesign problems. the major drawback of the current methods is they result in designs having more individual mshe sections than essential, correspond to the enthalpy intervals on temperature vs. enthalpy diagra...

Emerging multimedia communication environments, such as Environment-to-Environment (E2E) systems, require detecting complex events in environments using multimodal sensory data. Based on these spatio-temporal events, systems select and send data from appropriate sensors. Most existing stream processing systems consider temporal streams of alpha-numeric data and provide efficient approach to dea...

Stream processing engines have been proposed in the past for handling streaming data coming from data sources. But considering sensor networks, there is a need for an approach that allows stream models to reach also computation-capable constrained embedded devices and to implement storage, exchange and computation on those. We propose a stream model that implements sensor-device data handling. ...

Soil detachment is known as an important process in soil erosion and its quantification is necessary to establish a basic understanding of erosion. This study was carried out to find the best flow erosivity indicator(s) for predicting detachment rate at low slopes. For this purpose, 12 experiments including 6 flow discharges (75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200 ml/s) and 2 slope gradients (1.5 and 2...

Synchronous stream cipher HENKOS is proposed by Marius Oliver Gheorghit to eprint for analyzing the algorithm by cryptologic community. At the first look of HENKOS, it can be observed that a 256 byte secret key is an undesirable quality of the algorithm. Also, the algorithm is not efficient in case of streaming data that has to encrypt instantaneously, this is because the algorithm generates a ...

In resource-constrained devices, adaptation of data stream processing to variations of data rates and availability of resources is crucial for consistency and continuity of running applications. However, to enhance and maximize the benefits of adaptation, there is a need to go beyond mere computational and device capabilities to encompass the full spectrum of contextawareness. This paper presen...
