this paper proposes a hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function (cdf) of completion time of gert-type networks (gtn) which have no loop and have only exclusive-or nodes. proposed method is cre-ated by combining an analytical transformation with gaussian quadrature formula. also the combined crude monte carlo simulation and combined conditional monte carlo simulation are developed a...

In this paper we present a natural and comprehensive generalisation of the standard factorial moments (F q) analysis of a multiplicity distribution. The Generalised Factorial Moments are defined for all q in the complex plane and, as far as the negative part of its spectrum is concerned, could be useful for the study of infrared structure of the Strong Interactions Theory of high energy interac...

Effect sizes are important for power analysis and meta-analysis. This has led to a debate on reporting effect sizes for studies that are not statistically significant. Contrary and supportive evidence has been offered on the basis of Monte Carlo methods. In this article, clarifications are given regarding what should be simulated to determine the possible effects of piecemeal publishing trivial...

the determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a macromolecule. italso reflects molecular compactness shape. in this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. we studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

introduction: globally, the need for radiotherapy as a part of cancer management increases every year. thus, the shielding for megavoltage radiotherapy rooms is of great importance. materials and methods: in the present study, 14 types of developed high-density concrete with densities ranging from 2.45 to 5.11 were simulated by using monte carlo method. the linear attenuation coefficient and th...

this paper investigates the connection between market valuation anda type of the merger (stock, cash) using real options setup. i solveexplicitly for the timing and terms of cash mergers in two deferent settingsto demonstrate that cash mergers generally occur at low marketvaluations, whereas stock mergers that may be observed at both low andhigh valuations; the result holds with some dierences...
