Several alert correlation methods were proposed in the past several years to construct high-level attack scenarios from low-level intrusion alerts reported by intrusion detection systems (IDSs). These correlation methods have different strengths and limitations; none of them clearly dominate the others. However, all of these methods depend heavily on the underlying IDSs, and perform poorly when...

The accelerated rate of genomic sequencing has led to an abundance of completely sequenced genomes. Annotation of the open reading frames (ORFs) (i.e., gene prediction) in these genomes is an important task and is most often performed computationally based on features in the nucleic acid sequence. Using recent advances in proteomics, we set out to predict the set of ORFs for an organism based p...

Clay minerals are considered the most important components of clastic reservoir rock evaluation studies. The Shurijeh gas reservoir Formation, represented by shaly sandstones of the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous age, is the main reservoir rock in the Eastern Kopet-Dagh sedimentary Basin, NE Iran. In this study, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), scanning electron microscopic (S...

This study primarily deals with introducing an efficient numerical technique called the Complementary Functions Method (CFM) for the solutions of the initial value problem for the linear elastic analysis of anisotropic rotating uniform discs. To bring the performance of the method to light, first, closed form formulas are derived for such discs. The governing equation of the problem at stake is...

background: to determine the prevalence and patterns of complementary and alternative medicine (cam) use in urban population in isfahan. methods: in a cross–sectional study through two-stage sampling methods, 870 individuals were selected from isfahan province, center of iran. we selected 20 clusters randomly and chose one household from each cluster by chance then 24 households were included...
