Prediction of the bound configuration of small-molecule ligands that differ substantially from the cognate ligand of a protein co-crystal structure is much more challenging than re-docking the cognate ligand. Success rates for cross-docking in the range of 20-30 % are common. We present an approach that uses structural information known prior to a particular cutoff-date to make predictions on l...

In order to reduce costs and increase efficiency of a supply chain system, cross docking is one of the most important strategies of warehousing for consolidation shipments from different suppliers to different customers. Products are collected from suppliers by inbound trucks and then moved to customers by outbound trucks through cross dock. Scheduling of trucks plays important role in the cros...

Recent reports suggest the need for further study of the impact of organizational characteristics on quality-related activities in health centers. To better understand these issues, a cross-sectional assessment of quality-related activities in Health Resources and Services Administration-funded health centers was conducted using a mailed questionnaire. Associations between the extent and freque...

Cross-docking is a new warehousing policy in logistics which is widely used all over the world and attracts many researchers attention to study about in last decade. In the literature, economic aspects has been often studied, while one of the most significant factors for being successful in the competitive global market is improving quality of customer servicing and focusing on customer satisfa...

According to the Aharonov–Bohm effect, magnetic potentials have a direct significance to the motion of particles in quantum mechanics. We study this quantum effect through the scattering by several point–like magnetic fields at large separation in two dimensions. We derive the asymptotic formula for scattering amplitudes as the distances between centers of fields go to infinity. The result heav...
