As for serial code on CPUs, parallel code on GPUs for dense polynomial arithmetic relies on a combination of asymptotically fast and plain algorithms. Those are employed for data of large and small size, respectively. Parallelizing both types of algorithms is required in order to achieve peak performances. In this paper, we show that the plain dense polynomial multiplication can be efficiently ...

this paper deals with the concentration variation of cd, as, pb and no3- in groundwater of anar plain located in sw iran (west of kerman province). for this purpose, 21 samples were taken in april 2009 from discharging wells across the plain and after analysis and control of their results, isoconcentration maps and related graphs were prepared and interpreted. accordingly, the concentration of ...

BACKGROUND Various regions in Iran, especially the Khuzestan Province, have been covered by dust and dirt during the past two years due to environmental changes in the Middle East. We sought to evaluate the effect of these pollutants on the coagulant factors of people residing in Abadan and Khoramshahr, two major cities of Khuzestan Province. METHODS One hundred twenty-nine healthy individual...

Soil is the one of most important natural resources having direct and indirect effects on human life, foremost food supply. Moreover, two sources used in many sectors such as agriculture, forestry, environment, planning, related to conservation soil, are soil maps reports. There a need for proper up-to-date produced with support technology achieve sustainable management land successfully. In or...

BACKGROUND Plain radiographic assessment of posterolateral fusion has been reported as accurate in only two thirds of patients who were found to be healed at surgical exploration. Plain radiographic techniques for fusion assessment of interbody fusion with radiolucent cages are reported to be accurate. A helical computed tomography (CT) scan shows a high sensitivity for pseudarthrosis compared ...

archaeological excavations on the western part of the central iranian plateau, known as the qazvin plain provides invaluable information about the sedentary communities from early occupation to the later prehistoric era. despite the past archeological data, chronological studies mostly rely on the relative use of the bayesian modeling for stratigraphically-related radiocarbon dates. the current...

Accurate estimates of groundwater recharge are essential for effective management of groundwater, especially when supplies are limited such as in many arid and semiarid areas. In the Hebei Plain, China, water shortage is increasingly restricting socioeconomic development, especially for agriculture, which heavily relies on groundwater. Human activities have greatly changed groundwater recharge ...

BACKGROUND This study sought to examine the impact of cigarette packaging on young women, including the impact of 'plain' packaging. METHODS Participants were randomised to view eight cigarette packs designed according to one of four experimental conditions: fully-branded female brands; the same brands without descriptors (eg, 'slims'); the same brands without brand imagery or descriptors (ie...
