Background and aims: The aim of this study was the modeling of the incidence rates of Colorectal, breast and prostate cancers using a shared component model in order to explore the spatial pattern of their shared risk factors (i.e., obesity and low physical activity) affecting on cancer incidence, and also to estimate the relative weight of these shared components. Methods: In this study,...

in recent years, many researchers have been done in the area of wireless sensornetworks that has led to the variety of algorithms and methods for the collection andtransmission of environment information; but still many challenges faced bywireless sensor networks using methodologies are applied in various fields. such asmedia access control that due to the media being shared on these networks, ...

This paper presents an experiment to determine the underlying learning mechanism by which shared control with error reduction improves training effectiveness for dynamic manual control tasks in virtual environments. Specifically, the authors test the hypothesis that the learning mechanism of shared control with error reduction is through demonstration of the preferred strategy in the early phas...

Fast Path supports a variety of methods of concurrency control for a vanety 0/ different uses of data. This arose naturally out of efforts to meet the typical ner~ds of large on-line transaction processing businesses. The elements of "optimistic loeking" apply to one type of data, and "group commit" appLies to all types of data. Fast Path development ex.perience supports the idea that the use o...

In this paper, natural and manmade-shared control system examples are presented. Analogies and differences among these systems are discussed. Then, basic requirements for successful cooperation in shared-control systems are identified. Finally, an ambitious general framework for human-machine shared control is proposed. Here, only intelligent machines that would otherwise function autonomously ...
