these investigations indicate that the anterior layer of the renal fascia continues across the midline of the body in front of the aorta and inferior vena cava to become continuous with a similar layer on the opposite side of the body. the posterior layer of the renal fascia blends with the fascia covering the psoas major especially at the medial and lateral edges of this muscle. but, in additi...

The OMEGA architecture provides end-to-end quality of service (QoS) guarantees for distributed applications. QoS parameters are translated between application and network requirements by the QoS Broker, thus integrating media and network QoS management into a single entity. Admission control uses a schedulability test derived from application requirements. A novel task priority and precedence b...

Abstract Doped Gd 2 Zr O 7 materials have interesting properties as thermal barrier coatings (TBC) to replace the YSZ topcoats traditionally used. Here we investigate thermomechanical and phase relations of (GZO) alloyed with 5 mol% Yb 3 stabilized ZrO (YbSZ) in composition range (Gd ) 1− x , 0 ≤ 0.98. With increasing YbSZ content, transformations from ordered disordered pyrochlore fluorite tet...

Traditional DBMS only retrieves data that perfectly match the user query and also requires the user to know the detailed database schema. Often, it is desirable to obtain additional relevant information to a query. In this paper, we present a method to provide useful information to the user that he does not explicitly asked for. Such domain speciic knowledge associated to a given query depends ...
