The North-east Thames Region has appointed a nursing sister to co-ordinate the organisation of care for haemophiliacs in the region. As a result of the appointment, facilities for home treatment have expanded rapidly. Several associate centres providing care to haemophiliacs have been set up around the region in addition to the four main haemophilia centres, which are all in the south-west corn...

the existence of ra 226 is proved and measured by radiom emanation-method in waters and food products of north , north west and north – east of iran. a total of 126 water, 249 food and 22 air samples have been examined. the concertration of ra 226 in waters found to be 0.01 to 1.104 pci/1 and in food products from 0.01 to pci/gr. ash.the amount found in due ranges from 0.003 to 0.227 pci/m 3.it...

A corner detection algorithm proposed by Hood, et al. [6] which detects corner points on a discretely defined curve represented by x, y-coordinates is de-parameterized and its corner detection accuracy is improved. The accuracy of the original algorithm is sensitive to several user-defined parameters. This paper details the process of automated de-parameterization of the algorithm using inverse...

purpose: this study aims to investigate influencial factors on accepting audio archive by radio program makers of irib in north west of  iran. methodology: this research is based on davis’ technology acceptance model which has been done via analytical survey method. the population of this research are 100 radio program makers in north west of iran who are from uramia, tabriz, ardabil, zanjan, q...

the variability of temperature and precipitation is regarded as one of the main characteristics of the climate.precipitation and its results, especially results such as droughts, vary on different temporal and spatial scales. thepurpose of this paper is to determine the frequency of the inter-annual variability of the driest month in north-westiran. in order to obtain the best results, we used ...

Abstract This paper presents new evidence for the harvesting of edible plant roots and tubers at Northton, a Mesolithic hunter-gatherer site on Harris, in Western Isles Scotland, north-west corner Europe. The excavations uncovered abundant root tuber remains Ficaria verna Huds. (lesser celandine), an excellent high energy carbohydrate-rich food source, produced first use Lathyrus linifolius (Re...

Toxoplasmosis is caused by intracellular protozoan parasite, Toxoplasma gondii (Nicolle et Manceaux, 1908). Cats and other felids are the definitive hosts. It could be transmitted to man and animals by consumption of infected undercooked meat and contaminated food items including drinking water. Results of toxoplasmosis epidemiological surveys in animals and humans in South-West, North-West, No...

This study describes the geochemical distribution of lead (Pb) and identifies the critical factors that significantly control Pb distribution and speciation in coastal and estuarine sediments around India by using published data from the literature. Crustal sources influence the abundance of Pb in coastal sediment from the south-east and central-west coast of India. Parts of north-east, north-w...

In a seminal paper [1], Kung et al proposed that wavefront computation could be used to specify and implement parallel algorithms for the mathematical computations needed for highperformance signal processing. In [1], a wavefront computation is regarded as executing in a data-driven fashion on a two-dimensional grid of computational cells that have a north-southeast-west interconnection network...

This paper explores the utility of an ensemble decision-tree method called random forest, in comparison with the classic classification and regression trees (CART) algorithm, for forecasting ground-level ozone pollution in the Sydney metropolitan region. Statistical forecasting models are developed to provide daily ozone forecasts in November-March for three subregions, i.e., Sydney east, Sydne...
