Addition is the most frequent oating-point operation in modern microprocessors. Due to its complex shift-add-shift-round data ow, oating-point addition can have a long latency. To achieve maximum system performance, it is necessary to design the oating-point adder to have minimum latency, while still providing maximum throughput. This paper proposes a new oating-point addition algorithm which e...

the key point of super resolution process is the accurate measuring of sub-pixel shift. Any tiny error in measuring such shift leads to an incorrect image focusing. In this paper, methodology of measuring sub-pixel shift using Phase correlation (PC) are evaluated using different window functions, then modified version of (PC) method using high pass filter (HPF) is introduced . Comprehensive ana...

Background: Shift work can cause problems for workers’ health, especially nurses. This study was done to assess the problems caused by shift work and the nature of the job in nurses of the educational hospitals of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, Iran. Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive study carried out in 2013. The research participants were 159 nurses with and without...

A compatible point-shift f maps, in a translation invariant way, each point of a stationary point process Φ to some point of Φ. It is fully determined by its associated point-map, gf , which gives the image of the origin by f . The initial question of this paper is whether there exist probability measures which are left invariant by the translation of −gf . The point-map probabilities of Φ are ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the reproducibility of clinical centric relation (CR) registration techniques (bimanual manipulation, chin point guidance and Roth's method) by means of condyle position analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty two fully dentate asymptomatic subjects (16 female and 16 male) with normal occlusal relations (Angle class I) participated in the study (me...

In [13], K. Roth showed that the expected value of the L discrepancy of the cyclic shifts of the N point van der Corput set is bounded by a constant multiple of √ logN, thus guaranteeing the existence of a shift with asymptotically minimal L discrepancy, [11]. In the present paper, we construct a specific example of such a shift.
