propofol is a widely used anesthetic drug because of its minor complication and also its fast effect. one of most popular complication in using this drug is pain during injection that is more sever in new generation of its components (lipid-free microemulsion). other complications of propofol are bradycardia and hypotension. this study compares 3 drugs with placebo in control of these complicat...

Geo data is an important foundation for any type of location-based service, but geo data often is expensive or distribution is limited by certain license restrictions. As a solution, open projects collect geo data from individuals and publish these data under a public licence. As a major drawback, the correction and integration of collected data is difficult and cost-intensive. This paper descr...

Inferring wind-fields from remote observations poses two issues that need to be tackled: the first one is to represent two-dimensional Gaussian fields, or processes (for each location we have random variables specifying the X-, and Y-directions. The second problem is the inference with the inherently non-tractable likelihood model, governed by the underlying physics governing the wave formation...

in this research, four different positioning methods were compared in order to evaluate their accuracy, using a remotely controlled robot on a specific route. these methods included: using a single gps module, combining the data from three gps modules, using an inertial measurement unit (imu), and gps/imu data fusion. the comparison of these four methods showed that gps/imu data fusion along wi...

Recently, the global mobile device market is growing up and the functionalities of the mobile devices expand continually. As the expansion of mobile device usage and functionality, it is possible to collect various kinds of personal information such as photographs, GPS coordinates, and multimedia contents. Some researchers have studied data management and transfer of personal information collec...

Seasonal variation in habitat selection by the mountain goat Oreamnos americanus is not well understood due to the difficulties of monitoring animal movement in all months of the year. The use of global positioning system (GPS) wildlife telemetry collars offers an opportunity to overcome this obstacle, however satellite acquisition problems associated with GPS wildlife telemetry collars create ...
