The main goal of BI systems is to provide the access for the users to crucial information connected with the tools they use every day. It allows to take more relevant decisions, share knowledge with other people, cooperate within the whole organization and increase the company's gainings. The offered functionality includes either the scalable technology's platforms designed for workers in all m...

In this paper we describe the notion of a weak lipschitzianity of a mapping on a C stratification. We also distinguish a class of regularity conditions that are in some sense invariant under definable, locally Lipschitz and weakly bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms. This class includes the Whitney (B) condition and the Verdier condition.

Many heart centers are utilizing the total artificial heart for a bridging technique to transplantation, particularly in patients with bi-ventricular failure or irreversible left ventricular failure, where a donor heart is not readily available. This discussion includes the training procedure, operation and management of Canada's first total artificial heart performed on May 1, 1986.

the study area is located in southeastern iran, about 110 km southwest of kerman. geologically, the area is composed of ophiolitic rocks, volcanic rocks, intrusive bodies and sedimentary rocks. vein mineralization within andesite, andesitic basalt, andesitic tuffs occurred along the chahar gonbad fault. sulfide mineralization in the ore deposit has taken place as dissemination, veins and veinle...

This paper describes the use of a system of semantic rules to generate noun compounds, vague or polyse-mous words, and cases of metonymy. The rules are bi-directional and are used by the understanding system to interpret the same constructions.

The article presents, using Bi doped ZnO, an example of a heavy ion doped oxide semiconductor, highlighting a novel p-symmetry interaction of the electronic states to stabilize ferromagnetism. The study includes both ab initio theory and experiments, which yield clear evidence for above room temperature ferromagnetism. ZnBi(x)O(1-x) thin films are grown using the pulsed laser deposition techniq...

Instead of developing a novel red phosphor individually, this work proposes the production of white light by combining a near-ultraviolet/ultraviolet diode chip with blue and special yellow phosphors: the yellow phosphor includes the red and green components with high color saturation. The availability of this scheme is demonstrated by preparing a white light-emitting diode (WLED) with color re...

Business Intelligence (BI) has traditionally been used in organizations as a strategic tool to maximize profit. When coupled with Geographic Information Systems, however, BI can be transformed into a cutting edge decision support system for planning local and regional areas, as we demonstrate in this paper. Local and regional governments often face a major challenge in terms of developing a hol...
