Analytic Immunologic Techniques

Dissecting the human immunologic memory for pathogens.

Studies on immunologic memory in animal models and especially in the human system are instrumental to identify mechanisms and correlates of protection necessary for vaccine development. In this article, we provide an overview of the cellular basis of immunologic memory. We also describe experimental approaches based on high throughput cell cultures, which we have developed to interrogate human ...

Using multi-criteria evaluation techniques of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy TOPSIS in locating waste sanitary landfill sites

Considering non-normative extension and too much development of cities, the lack of accurate model of consumption, increasing waste production, the most logical and most economical method for disposal of municipal waste is sanitary landfill. Given that, to identify areas prone to waste landfilling requires application of comprehensive techniques. The main objective for the present research is t...

Performance comparison of land change modeling techniques for land use projection of arid watersheds

The change of land use/land cover has been known as an imperative force in environmental alteration, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. This research was mainly aimed to assess the validity of two major types of land change modeling techniques via a three dimensional approach in Birjand urban watershed located in an arid climatic region of Iran. Thus, a Markovian approach based on two suit...

An Improved Standard Cell Placement Methodology using Hybrid Analytic and Heuristic Techniques

In recent years, size of VLSI circuits is dramatically grown and layout generation of current circuits has become a dominant task in design flow. Standard cell placement is an effective stage of physical design and quality of placement affects directly on the performance, power consumption and signal immunity of design. Placement can be performed analytically or heuristically. Analytical placer...
