A method to support fault diagnosis in networked discrete events systems is presented. The method combines the abstraction and condensation of data with recognition of anomalies. The method and implementing tool have been successfully used at CIM factories in some European countries. Copyright © 2001 IFAC

A new method for the preparation of well-defined functionalized mesoporous SBA-15 has been developed by a one-step co-condensation method using trimethallylsilanes as organosilane sources. This new method enables the incorporation of various bulky organic functional groups with long alkyl chain tethers into the mesoporous silica network.

We have developed a fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) method to examine the structure of both natural chromosomes and small artificial chromosomes during the mitotic cycle of budding yeast. Our results suggest that the pairing of sister chromatids: (a) occurs near the centromere and at multiple places along the chromosome arm as has been observed in other eukaryotic cells; (b) is maintai...

statement of problem: when a tooth is treated endodontically, there are several objectives, which must be met for the root canal therapy to be successful. one of those objectives is the complete obturation of the root canal system. purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the apical sealability of the theramfil endodontic obturation technique and compared it with lateral condensation....

an efficient, mild and environmentally friendly method was reported for the synthesis of an efficient, mild and environmentally friendly method was reported for the synthesis of pyranopyroles from aryl aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate, malononitrile and hydrazine hydrate in the presence of catalytic amounts of methyl imidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([hmim][hso4]) as an efficient catalyst. these synth...

We have developed a method for recognizing and tracking known three-dimensional objects in scene images captured from a user’s viewpoint. The method uses multiple color histogram matching and condensation tracking. We implemented a prototype 3-D online manual system based on our method.
