In this paper, a BCC-DPSO scheduling algorithm is proposed to solve multi-objective optimization problem for task scheduling on Network-on-Chip (NoC). In our proposal, the relative advantage of the solution is evaluated by calculating its efficiency using BCC model in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), and the referred-time method is introduced to rank the BCC-efficient solution. Moreover, a sub-...

BACKGROUND Skin cancer is the most common malignant tumor in humans. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are the two most common types of skin cancers. When skin cancer is clinically suspected, preoperative biopsies are recommended for a definite diagnosis. However, despite a concern over potential increased risk of metastasis associated with mechanical manipulation, th...

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common malignancy. Exposure to sunlight is the most important risk factor. Most, if not all, cases of BCC demonstrate overactive Hedgehog signaling. A variety of treatment modalities exist and are selected based on recurrence risk, importance of tissue preservation, patient preference, and extent of disease. The pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical feature...

Volumetric samples on Cartesian lattices are less efficient than samples on body-centred cubic (BCC) lattices. We show how to construct isosurfaces on BCC lattices using several different algorithms. Since the mesh that arises from BCC lattices involves a large number of cells, we show two alternate methods of reducing the number of cells by clumping tetrahedra into either octahedra or hexahedr...

The phase behavior of dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine in aqueous solutions of urea, N,N'-dimethylurea (DMU), and N,N,N',N'-tetramethylurea (TMU) has been characterized by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. All three solutes stabilize the lamellar liquid-crystalline phase at the expense of lamellar-gel phase and inverted hexagonal phase of the phospholipid when...

The development of B lymphocytes from progenitor cells is dependent on the expression of a pre-B cell-specific receptor made up by a mu heavy chain associated with the surrogate light chains, immunoglobulin (Ig)alpha, and Igbeta. A variant pre-B cell receptor can be formed in which the mu heavy chain is exchanged for a truncated mu chain denoted Dmu. To investigate the role of this receptor in ...

In this work, an extended evaluation approach for decision making units (DMUs) with a single output is proposed. Firstly, the input and output data for each DMU are changed in the same proportion until all the outputs are equal, and then the coordinate system is established with input i as the ith coordinate axis. Secondly, in the coordinate system, the production possibility set, which is span...

The importance of measuring the efficiency State Madrasah Aliyah in Province Bangka Belitung is at least based on low achievement output or National Examination scores. This shows that implementation terms input and still not efficient. study aims to measure Islands 2017/2018 2018/2020 academic years. research uses a Data Development Analysis (DEA) approach type qualitative with non-parametric ...

The aim of this study was to assess the relative efficiency of the Iranian forest management plans using the non-parametric method – Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as a well-known and robust technique for measuring the relative efficiency of organizations. The relative efficiency of forest management plans was calculated using the most frequency DEA models such as global technical efficiency (...
