Of all the types of anesthesia equipment, breathing circuits for children are the most different from those for adults.Therefore, they are a continual source of controversy and investigation.These differences are most pronounced for neonates and young infants, whose unique anatomic and physiologic characteristics warrant different equipment from adults. Even though we use these on a daily basis...

Closed circuit television (CCTV) systems deployed on roadway networks are believed to be among the best mechanisms for providing useful, reliable information for effective traffic management. Video images may be displayed and viewed directly by traffic management per­ sonnel for surveillance purposes, or may be processed electronicaJly for detection of traffic metrics such as aver­ age vehicle ...

abstract background: the aim of this study was to compare changes in pain, oxygenation, and ventilation following endotracheal suctioning with open and closed suctioning systems in post coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg) patients. materials and methods: 130 post cabg mechanically ventilated patients were randomly allocated to undergo either open (n = 75) or closed (n = 55) endotracheal suct...

In this paper, we introduce and characterize fuzzy wea-kly $e$-closed functions in fuzzy topological spaces and the relationship between these mappings and some properties of them are investigated.

There are two main approaches to obtaining \topological" cartesian-closed categories. Under one approach, one restricts to a full subcategory of topological spaces that happens to be cartesian closed | for example, the category of sequential spaces. Under the other, one generalises the notion of space | for example, to Scott's notion of equilogical space. In this paper we show that the two appr...

Group theory is a branch of mathematics that studies, of course, the structure and behavior of "groups." A mathematical group is composed of a set of elements and a group operation (call it "multiplication" and denote it as *); the set is closed under multiplication--combining elements using multiplication never leads outside the group. It is a closed system. In addition to being closed, a grou...

In the current knowledge economy era, knowledge has become an organization’s primary resource due to the fact that an organization is an extension of an information society. Therefore, firms that are able to effectively manage their knowledge resources can expect to reap a wide range of benefits. Due to the diversity of organizational culture (which include results-oriented, tightly controlled,...

The category TOP of topological spaces is not cartesian closed, but can be embedded into the cartesian closed category ASSM of assemblies over algebraic lattices, which is a generalisation of Scott's category EQU of equilogical spaces. In this paper, we identify cartesian closed subcategories of assemblies which correspond to well-known separation properties of topology: T 0 ,
