grid computing is a term referring to the combination of computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common computational platform. mobile computing is a generic word that introduces using of movable, handheld devices with wireless communication, for processing data. mobile computing focused on providing access to data, information, services and communications anywhere an...

of Proposed Work: We will perform a scaling analysis of terrestrial carbon exchange using several of the NIGEC flux sites in different biomes (forest, C 4 grassland, C 3 agriculture), using a numerical model of the biophysics and biogeochemistry of plants and soils (SiB2), which includes calculations of the surface fluxes of CO 2 , energy, and moisture. This model will be used to analyze local ...

Data on the distribution of plant species at spatial (grid) scales are required as input for integrative analysis along with related climate, environment, topography and soil data. Although the world's scientific community is increasingly generating data on plant species at various spatial grids and statistically interpolating and extrapolating the available information, data on plant diversity...

In this paper, Forchheimer equation is used as the constitutive equation for flow through rockfill, and the non-linear two-dimensional governing equation with free surface is solved by a new finite element method in a fixed grid. The model is verified by applying it to different flow conditions. The first scenario, which is assumed to be one-dimensional with analytical solution available for it...

PURPOSE The goal of this work was to evaluate measured vs. calculated surface dose as a function of PTV-to-skin proximity and calculation matrix oxel size, determine effects on plan quality, and provide parameters and levels of uncertainty for clinical use. METHODS A right-sided CTV with the lateral border 5mm from the surface was delineated on the CT data of a head and neck phantom. A 5mm PT...

. introduction tropical cyclones (tcs), all over the world, are recognized as the most common and most devastating of all the natural disasters. nearly 80–90 tcs occur around the globe that about 40–50 attain intensity of 33 m/s (frank and george, 2007). approximately 7% of tcs originate in north of indian ocean and nearly 2% in arabian sea (wmo report, 2008). the prediction of tc track has bee...
