gully erosion constitutes a major problem in natural resources management and soil conservation, which causes severe land degradation in arid and semi-arid areas. therefore, determination of gully prone area and identification of gully conditioning factors can help to managers and decision makers to reduce the hazard of gully erosion. the aim of this study is to predictthe gully erosion suscept...

Ad-hoc data processing has proven to be a critical paradigm for Internet companies processing large volumes of unstructured data. However, the emergence of cloud-based computing, where storage and CPU are outsourced to multiple third-parties across the globe, implies large collections of highly distributed and continuously evolving data. Our demonstration combines the power and simplicity of th...

Abstract: In this paper we present a mathematical analysis for a steady-state laminar boundary layer flow, governed by the Ostwald-de Wael power-law model of an incompressible nonNewtonian fluid past a semi-infinite power-law stretched flat plate with uniform free stream velocity. A generalization of the usual Blasius similarity transformation is used to find similarity solutions [1]. Under app...

some macroinvertebrate indices of stream health have been identified as most useful and efficacious. management decisions can be made with greater awareness.the objectives of this study were to assess the biological water of the hazar river using macroinvertebrates.the haraz river is one of the best freshwater ecosystems in the mazandaran province located in the north of iran.to assess the macr...

Data streams are common in many recent applications, e.g. stock quotes, e-commerce data, system logs, network traffic management, etc. Compared with traditional databases, streaming databases pose new challenges for query processing due to the streaming nature of data which constantly changes over time. Index structures have been effectively employed in traditional databases to improve the quer...

Side-channel attacks on block ciphers and public key algorithms have been discussed extensively. However, there is only sparse literature about side-cannel attacks on stream ciphers. The few existing references mainly treat timing [8] and template attacks [10], or provide a theoretical analysis [6], [7] of weaknesses of stream cipher constructions. In this paper we present attacks on two focus ...

This study introduces an efficient query indexing method for processing data stream in RFID system. Several approaches to build an index on queries rather than data records, called a query index, have been proposed and are widely used to evaluate continuous queries over streaming data. However, it is difficult to use them for the RFID system because they suffer from data composed of a large num...

The term ‘‘incision wave’’ was coined in the 1990s to describe wave-like patterns of stream incision propagating through numerically modeled bedrock-channel river systems. An incision wave consists of a crest where available stream power is greatest, and where vertical incision is most rapid. The crest is flanked by limbs where there is less available stream power and where vertical incision ra...
