This study presents temporal and spatial variations in personal exposure of parking attendants in a busy conurbation in the northern part of the UK. Two traffic related pollutants carbon monoxide (CO) and ultrafine particulates (UFP), mainly associated with urban drives, have been considered for two distinct locationsone, in the city centre and the other in a suburban area of Leeds, a prominent...

Humans live interacting with other people and do everyday tasks in individual and collective ways. Robotics people are interested in building robots that can interact with people in the same way that humans do. In order to reach this goal robots must learn from the interaction with humans and learn the human skills used in everyday life to acquire robot social behaviors that can then be used in...

In Local Area Networks (LAN) connected together by bridges, flow control and smooth traffic in the network is very important. However, congestion at bridges can cause intensive loss of received frames. In addition, the received frames are thrown away and have to be retransmitted by the source station, which causes more congestion and massive reduction in the overall network throughput. The netw...

Acute venous congestion leads to blood stasis in the tissue and impaired blood perfusion. Using medicinal leech is an old method for reducing tissue congestion. There are numerous factors in leech saliva and hirudin that have important roles in the leeching beneficial effect. In this study, an animal study was performed to compare leech therapy with heparin therapy in the treatment of acute ven...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is an approach for evaluating performances of decision making units (dmus). the performances of dmus are affected by the amount of sources that dmus used. usually increases in inputs cause increases in outputs. however, there are situations where increases in one or more inputs generate a reduction in one or more outputs. in such situations there is congestion in...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a branch of management, concerned with evaluating the performances of homogeneous decision making units (dmus). the performances of dmus are affected by the amount of sources that dmus used. usually increases in inputs cause increases in outputs. however, there are situations where increase in one or more inputs generate a reduction in one or more outputs. in ...
