Abstract The UN General Assembly and the Security Council should amend their rules of procedure to create gender parity on bench International Court Justice. Only 3.7 per cent all judges ICJ have been women. Charter, Statute, long-standing practice underscore importance representation, but focus has geographical representation. Using law international organizations, combined with treaty interpr...

the aim of the present study was to estimate the genetic parameters and genetic trends of somatic cell score (scs) in the first 3 lactations of iranian holstein cows by random regression (rr) animal model by using restricted maximum likelihood (reml) method. the data set used in this analysis included observations of 340318 test-day records of 41526 cows in 288 herds; 89969 test-day of 11750 co...

we present an approach to design of fault tolerant computing systems. in this paper, a technique is employed that enable the combination of several codes, in order to obtain flexibility in the design of error correcting codes. code combining techniques are very effective, which one of these codes are turbo codes. the algorithm-based fault tolerance techniques that to detect errors rely on the c...

We will now consider the problem of creating a set of bitstrings such that the bits are almost k-wise independent. Our method consists of two steps. In the first step we create a set of bitstrings such that parity on every fixed index set is almost even. In the second step we present a method to convert such a set into a set where the bits are almost k-wise independent. For presentational reaso...

BACKGROUND Studies that explore the controversial association between parity and anaemia-in-pregnancy (AIP) were often hampered by not distinguishing incident cases caused by pregnancy from prevalent cases complicated by pregnancy. The authors' aim in conducting this study was to overcome this methodological concern. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted in Oman on 1939 pregnanci...

INTRODUCTION Hormone receptors, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 and some risk factors determine therapies and prognosis of breast cancer. The risk factors distributed differently between patients with receptors. This study aimed to investigate the distribution of risk factors between subtypes of breast cancer by the 3 receptors in Chinese native women with a large sample size. METHOD...

In this letter, we propose a multi-stage decoding scheme with post-processing for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, which remedies the rapid performance degradation in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) range known as error floor. In the proposed scheme, the unsuccessfully decoded words of the previous decoding stage are re-decoded by manipulating the received log-likelihood ratios (LLRs...

In this paper,the impact of Low density parity check code(LDPC) on performance of system under TH-PPM model over UWB channel is investigated. Single band UWB that is time hopping technique is used to randomizing the multi access capability without interference. The bit error rate of proposed system is simulated for different gain level by varying number of users.Low bit error rate is achieved e...

We consider multi-player graph games with partial-observation and parity objective. While the decision problem for three-player games with a coalition of the first and second players against the third player is undecidable in general, we present a decidability result for partial-observation games where the first and third player are in a coalition against the second player, thus where the secon...
