Eight samples of flowering tops from six species of the genus Crataegus L., commonly called Hawthorn, from different geographic locations of Iran were standardized according to German Pharmacopoeia monograph on Crataegi folium cum flore (hawthorn leaf with flower) by high-performance thin-layer chromatograph-ic (HPTLC) fingerprinting combining with digital scanni...

This paper presents a novel profiling approach, which is entirely based on program transformation techniques in order to enable exact profiling, preserving complete call stacks, method invocation counters, and bytecode instruction counters. We exploit the number of executed bytecode instructions as profiling metric, which has several advantages, such as making the instrumentation entirely porta...

This paper addresses three main areas and develops a conceptual framework for identity fraud profiling. First, we identify the main contemporary profiling methods that are crime and/or business based. Second, accepting the current information systems (IS) facilitated attack channels and methods used by identity crime perpetrators (Jamieson & Stephens & Winchester 2007), we investigate how to be...

The computing of applications in embedded devices suffers tight constraints on computation and energy resources. Thus, it is important that applications running on these resource-constrained devices are aware of the energy constraint and are able to execute efficiently. The existing execution time and energy profiling tools could help developers to identify the bottlenecks of applications. Howe...

Aggressive program optimization requires accurate profile information, but such accuracy requires many samples to be collected. We explore a novel profiling architecture that reduces the overhead of collecting each sample by including a programmable co-processor that analyzes a stream of profile samples generated by a microprocessor. From this stream of samples, the co-processor can detect corr...

Racial profiling—the use of race, ethnicity, or national origin by law enforcement officials to make judgments of criminal suspicion—is assessed in terms of its effect on targeted populations and on law enforcement efficiency. A mathematical simulation, comparing multiple profiling and non-profiling scenarios, is employed. This analysis indicates that racial profiling exacerbates incarceration ...

background : lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer- related deaths and most of themâ  are normally diagnosed in late stages, so there is an urgent need to establish reliable tools for the identification at early stages of the disease. in this study, we use an eleven gene signature test to examine lung biopsy specimens for diagnostic, prognostic & therapeutic purposes. methods : bronc...

Over the years it has been an important goal to optimize the treatment of subfertility in order to obtain a better pregnancy rate and baby-take-home rate, usually combined with the goal of decreasing the rate of multiplet pregnancies. This implies optimizing the development of embryos through improved in vitro culture methods. And it also implies optimizing the methods of selection of embryos f...

Some claim that moral factors affect the epistemic status of our beliefs. Call this encroachment thesis. It’s been argued thesis can explain at least part wrongness racial profiling. The predicts high stakes in cases profiling make it more difficult for these racist beliefs to be justified or constitute knowledge. This paper considers a class generalizations seem do just opposite this. we infer...

Background: Ovarian cancer is the most fatal tumor of female's reproductive system, and several genetics and environmental factors are involved in its development. Various studies have already identified suitable biomarkers to facilitate the early detection, prognosis evaluation, and the assessment of treatment response. However, the aim of this review was to investigate the role of long non-co...
