The Cloud Computing model leverages virtualization of computing resources allowing customers to provision resources on-demand on a pay-as-you-go basis. During recent years, the power consumption of datacenters in cloud environment attracted researchers. Optimization of energy consumption can be performed by different methods including virtual machine (VM) consolidation. This technique can reduc...

The digital twins (DT) has quickly become a hot topic since it was proposed. It appears in all kinds of commercial propaganda and is widely quoted by academic circles. However, the term DT misstatements misused business academics. This study revisits defines to be more advanced system/product/service modeling simulation environment that combines most modern information communication technologie...

background during the four steps of the valsalva maneuver (vm), opposite changes can be observed in some physiologic parameters. manifestations of the vm in the electrocardiogram (ecg) have been studied in detail, but there have been few reports comparing vm-related biochemical and hemodynamic changes with a focus on the strain phase of the vm. objectives we studied strain-related ecg changes d...

A chaotic attractor has been observed with an autonomous circuit that uses only two energystorage elements: a linear passive inductor and a linear passive capacitor. The other element is a nonlinear active memristor. Hence, the circuit has only three circuit elements in series. We discuss this circuit topology, show several attractors and illustrate local activity via the memristor’s DC vM − iM...

A demand for high efficiency traction motors has been accelerated by the promotion of electrified vehicles, such as battery and fuel cell electric vehicles. As a part development motor, this paper reports comparative study on two kinds hybrid excitation flux switching (HEFSM) variable machine. One is conventional HEFSM, which consists stator with constantly magnetized-permanent magnets, field c...

Dose-dependent pharmacokinetic of phenytoin necessitates the estimation of the maximum rate of metabolism (Vm) and the Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) in a concerned population. The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of phenytoin in a sample of Iranian patients to optimize the antiepileptic pharmacotherapy. Fourty patients who received a constant dose of phenytoin ...

Stochastic but roughly periodic LCRs (Local subsarcolemmal ryanodine receptor–mediated Ca Releases) during the late phase of diastolic depolarization (DD) in rabbit sinoatrial nodal pacemaker cells (SANCs) generate an inward current (INCX) via the Na /Ca exchanger. Although LCR characteristics have been correlated with spontaneous beating, the specific link between LCR characteristics and SANC ...

Glioblastoma is one of the most common brain tumors in adults with poor prognosis, aggressiveness, and treatment resistance. Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) consists of generating vascular-like channels by tumor cells, independent of endothelial angiogenesis. Studies showed in glioblastoma, the proportion of VM to all vascular channels is associated with poor prognosis and higher invasiveness levels....
