A framework for task assignment in heterogeneous computing systems is presented in this work. The framework is based on a learning automata model. The proposed model can be used for dynamic task assignment and scheduling and can adapt itself to changes in the hardware or network environment. The important feature of the scheme is that it can work on multiple cost criteria, optimizing each crite...

conclusions the results of the present study show that administration of t. foenum-graecum corrects metabolic and inflammatory alterations associated with ovariectomy and has a potential for the management of menopause. objectives the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of t. foenum-graecum seed extract in reducing the metabolic and inflammatory alternations associated with menopaus...

A tuning fork gyroscope (TFG) with orthogonal thin-walled round holes in the driving and sensing directions is proposed to improve sensitivity. The thin walls formed by through produce stress concentration, transforming small displacement of vibration into a large concentrated strain. When piezoelectric excitation or detection carried out here, output voltage can be increased, thereby improving...

Present study reports analgesic activity of petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of leaves and seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum Linn. (Fabaceae) using hot plate method for evaluation of central analgesic activity and acetic acid induced writhing test for evaluation of peripheral analgesic activity in mice.   All the extracts of Trigonella foenum-graecum ...

Tactical Floor Game (TFG) is an activity to simulate tactics and test the concept of battle operation plans. The main focus in TFG aligning planning logic with field execution estimates using storytelling, mainly through role-playing a replica combat situation. usually done manually by laying out paper map on floor pairing miniatures representing units operation. In digital version, typically p...

The alarming increase in bacterial resistance to antibiotics caused some authors state that we are approaching a post-antibiotic era and medical catastrophe, the study aimed assess antimicrobial effects of selected plant extracts against several sensitive resistant isolates. Experimental cross-sectional was conducted, 70% ethanol crude Acaccia nilotica, Trigonella foenum-graecum, Punica granatu...

AIMS To determine whether 80-lead body surface potential mapping (BSPM) improves detection of acute coronary artery occlusion in patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) due to ventricular fibrillation (VF) and who survived to reach hospital. METHODS AND RESULTS Of 645 consecutive patients with OHCA who were attended by the mobile coronary care unit, VF was the initial r...

Epithelioid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma (EIMS) is a rare and aggressive variant of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT). ALK-RANBP2 fusion is one of the supposed mechanisms for the aggressive biological behavior of this tumor. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first case of EIMS carrying ROS1-TFG fusion which affected a 16 year-old male. The patient presented abdominal pa...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of the task-specific training with trunk restraint compared with the free one in poststroke reaching movements. The design was randomized trial. The setting was University of Campinas (Unicamp). Twenty hemiparetic chronic stroke patients were selected and randomized into 2 training groups: trunk restraint group (TRG) (reaching tr...
