sink location is considered as a basic service in geographic routing in wireless sensor networks. obtaining the location of sink node by source node using an efficient method with low complexity has always been a challenging issue in research. in this paper, a sink location algorithm based on fano plane is proposed. the research challenge is how to ensure the intersection of two slq and sla rou...

Deploying Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) in enterprises has become mainstream, as it provides business agility benefits. Today’s technologies allow to integrate human labour together with software services into service-oriented architectures therefore achieving smooth automation of business processes in such mixed systems. However, companies are continuously trying to optimize expenses ass...

In the present work, a hierarchical hybrid micro/nanostructured titanium surface was obtained by sandblasting with large grit and acid etching (SLA), and nanotubes of different diameters (30 nm, 50 nm, and 80 nm) were superimposed by anodization. The effect of each SLA-treated surface decorated with nanotubes (SLA + 30 nm, SLA + 50 nm, and SLA + 80 nm) on osteogenesis was studied in vitro and i...

Cloud computing is a newly emerged computing infrastructure that builds on the latest achievements of diverse research areas, such as Grid computing, Service-oriented computing, business process management and virtualization. An important characteristic of Cloud-based services is the provision of non-functional guarantees in the form of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), such as guarantees on exe...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the functional results from arthroscopic repair of SLAP lesions through the portal described by O'Brien. METHODS A retrospective evaluation was conducted on 19 shoulders in 18 patients who underwent arthroscopic repair of SLAP lesions through the O'Brien portal between November 2007 and January 2012. RESULTS Nineteen shoulders in 18 patients were evaluated: 16 male pat...

In novel market-oriented resource sharing models resource consumers pay for the resource usage and expect that non-functional requirements for the application execution, termed as Quality of Service (QoS), are satisfied. QoS is negotiated between two parties following the specific negotiation protocols and is recorded using Service Level Agreements (SLAs) standard. However, most of the existing...

• This is a systematic review for social learning analytics studies. 36 journal articles published between 2011 and 2020 were coded analyzed. The application of mainly in formal fully online settings few studies share insights with teachers. We present methodological, theoretical practical propositions to advance research, creation tools the practice analytics. Social (SLA) promising approach i...

objective(s): leishmaniasis is a complex parasitic disease that represents a major public health problem. despite numerous attempts over the past decades, yet there is no effective vaccine against human leishmaniasis probably due to the lack of suitable adjuvants. in this study, a first generation liposomal-based leishmania vaccine was developed using soluble leishmania major antigens (sla) and...

Cloud consumers (CC) are confounded while taking the choice of selecting Cloud service provider (CSP) to accomplish Cloud services. Large number of CSPs are present in the market, which provide diverse cloud administrations viz Platform-as-a-Service PaaS, Infrastructure-as-a-Service IaaS and Software-as-a-Service SaaS. CSPs are conveying their Cloud services to CC in light of Service Level Agre...

MHC class I molecules and beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)m) are membrane glycoproteins that present peptide Ags to TCRs, and bind to inhibitory and activating receptors on NK cells and other leukocytes. They are involved in the discrimination of self from non-self. Modification of these molecules in the placenta benefits pregnancy, but little is known about their genes in the uterus. We examined...
