This paper provides insight into the statistical distribution of the interference at the output of receivers composed of a chip-rate linear transverse equalizer followed by a despreader for the downlink of direct-sequence code-division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems with long scrambling sequences. It is shown that for small spreading factors, the probability density function (PDF) of the int...

We report the case of a 56-year old female patient with granulosa tumour of the ovary treated in our institute. She underwent complete resection followed by auxiliary chemotherapy according to BEP protocol (Bleomycine 30 Mg J1, J8 and J15, Etoposide 100mg/m J1-J5, Cisplatine 20 mg/m J1-J5). After her second cycle of BEP regimen, the patient had multiple skin linear hyperpigmentations at the lev...

Diffuse N losses from agriculture are a major cause of excessive nitrate concentrations in surface and groundwaters. Leaching through the soil is the main pathway of nitrate loss. For environmental management, an anticipatory assessment and monitoring of nitrate leaching risk by indicator (index) approaches is increasingly being used. Although complex Nitrogen Loss Indicator (NLI) approaches ma...

Pressure Reducing Valves (PRV) are being used for decreasing the existing extra pressure in the water distribution network. however, they dissipate a considerable amount of energy. Therefore, the idea of application of Soft Pressure Reducing Systems (SPRS) is proposed, where a PRV is replaced by a hydropower station. The heart of An SPRS is the turbo-generator. One of the advantages of this typ...

Set membership of points in the plane can be visualized by connecting corresponding points via graphical features, like paths, trees, polygons, ellipses. In this paper we study the bus embeddability problem (BEP): given a set of colored points we ask whether there exists a planar realization with one horizontal straight-line segment per color, called bus, such that all points with the same colo...
