Numerical solution of the advectionedispersion equation, used to evaluate transport of solutes in porous media, requires discretization schemes for space and time stepping. We examine use of quadratic upstream interpolation schemes QUICK, QUICKEST, and the total variation diminution scheme ULTIMATE, and compare these with UPSTREAM and CENTRAL schemes in the HYDRUS-1D model. Results for purely c...

In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), there is frequently disconnected a route consisting of multi-hop from a source to a destination because of the dynamic nature such as the topology change caused by nodes’ mobility. To overcome this situation, existing routing protocols for MANETs have performed route repair scheme to repair the disconnected route. However, existing reactive routing protocols ...

The quantal response equilibrium (QRE) notion of McKelvey and Palfrey (1995) has recently attracted considerable attention, due in part to its widely documented ability to rationalize observed behavior in games played by experimental subjects. However, even with strong a priori restrictions on unobservables, QRE imposes no falsifiable restrictions: it can rationalize any distribution of behavio...

statement of problem: surface disinfection is an important aspect of infection control in dentistry. a new generation of quaternary ammonium components (qacs) is gaining popularity as high-level disinfectants. two types of qac sprays, uniseptaquick and solarsept, are being widely used by iranian dentists. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficiency of unisepta quick a...

An explicit rate indication scheme for congestion avoidance in computer and telecommuni-cation networks is proposed. The sources monitor their load and provide the information periodically to the switches. The switches, in turn, compute the load level and ask the sources to adjust their rates up or down. The scheme achieves high link utilization, fair allocation of rates among contending source...

An explicit rate indication scheme for congestion avoidance in ATM networks is proposed. The sources monitor their load and provide the information periodically to the switches. The switches, in turn, compute the load level and ask the sources to adjust their rates up or down. The scheme achieves high link utilization, low delay, fair allocation of rates among contending sources, provides quick...

We analyze data from the legislative bargaining experiments reported in Frechette, Kagel, and Lehrer (2003), Frechette, Kagel, and Morelli (2005a,b), and Drouvelis, Montero, and Sefton (2010) in order to investigate the extent to which the observed deviations from the theoretical predictions can be explained by imperfect best response, in combination with different assumptions about correct (QR...
