چکیده

spend much of their time idle, and various schemes have been proposed to use this idle time productively. We have used this approach to improve overall performance in storage systems. The most common approach is to off-load activity from busy periods to less-busy ones in order to improve system responsiveness. In addition, speculative work can be performed in idle periods in the hope that it will be needed later at times of higher utilization, or a nonrenewable resource power can be conserved by disabling unused resources during idle periods.

Accordingly, we show in two experiments that without a justification, people choose to be idle; that even a specious justification can motivate peo...

Using Ineffective Coping Strategies for Facing With COVID-19

Comparison of Different Linear Filter Design Methods for Handling Ocular Artifacts in Brain Computer Interface System

 Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) record brain signals, analyze and translate them into control commands which are relayed to output devices that carry out desired actions. These systems do not use normal neuromuscular output pathways. Actually, the principal goal of BCI systems is to provide better life style for physically-challenged people which are suffered from cerebral palsy, amyotrophic l...
