This thesis reviews selected topics from the theory of parallel computation. The research begins with a survey of the proposed models of parallel computation. It examines the characteristics of each model and it discusses its use either for theoretical studies, or for practical applications. Subsequently, it employs common simulation techniques to evaluate the computational power of these model...

Introduction: Chemoradiation is a well-established protocol for management of localized esophageal cancer. However, some early and late toxicities are associated with this therapy. Plan evaluation in term of normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) may help clinicians to tailor this therapy more individually. Given the variety of present radiobiological models, the choice...

Programming by demonstration (PBD) is a technique which allows end users to create, modify, accommodate, and expand programs demonstrating what the program supposed do. Although ideal of common-purpose programming or examples has been rejected as practically unrealistic, this approach found its application shown potentials when limited specific narrow domains ranges applications. In paper, orig...

A key aspect of image coding systems is the probability model employed to code data. The more precise estimates inferred by model, higher efficiency achieved. In general, models adjust after every new symbol. main difficulty apply such a strategy highly parallel engine that many symbols are coded simultaneously, so adaptation requires different approach. in previous works utilizes stationary co...
