Hub ports play an important role in reducing the number of container routes and saving operating costs liner companies. However, hub failures caused by uncertainties such as natural disasters may cause huge recovery costs. Considering accidental failure probability reallocation feeder ports, a global reliable shipping location problem (RLSHLP) is studied. We use k-means algorithm to divide netw...

This paper presents a summary of the system of "Reconfigurable Brachiating Space Robot". The robot consists of a center hub and three 6 degree-of-freedom arms with an end-effector and a pivot, which has a reconfigurable mechanism, for each arm. This space robot is capable of moving over the Japanese Experimental Module of the International Space Station in a brachiating manner and also of arm r...

This article presents an analysis of Reception, Staging and Onward Movement hub (RSOM-hub) concept to support Canadian Forces (CF) Northern operations and provides insights into the optimal RSOM-hub locations. RSOM-hubs are permanent or temporary staging bases for cross-loading between strategic and tactical lift during military deployment and sustainment operations. Performance measures were d...

Hub location problem (HLP) is one of the most important problems in the areas of logistics and telecommunication network design. In this paper we address the bi-objective non-strict single allocation hub location problem (BONSSAHLP). The non-strict property of this problem which allows establishment of direct links between pairs of non-hub nodes makes it somehow different from the conventional ...

UNLABELLED Hub proteins (those engaged in most physical interactions in a protein interaction network (PIN) have recently gained much research interest due to their essential role in mediating cellular processes and their potential therapeutic value. It is straightforward to identify hubs if the underlying PIN is experimentally determined; however, theoretical hub prediction remains a very chal...

This research is intended to provide a comprehensive historical and present development of zakat literature through bibliometrics analysis extracted from Scopus database. From 522 articles related zakat, the findings show that Universiti Utara Malaysia, IMEFM, Saad, R. A. J have become most institution, journal author published in zakah respectively. Moreover, article Haniffa, R; Hudaib (2007) ...

conclusions our results revealed the possible crucial genes and mirnas involved in the initiation and progression of hcc cells infected with hcv. results based on the topological analysis of mirna-hubgene network, we identified the key hub mirnas. in order to identify the most important common sub-network, we aligned two ppi networks using netal tool. the c-jun gene was identified as the most i...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to evaluate whether a comprehensive stroke center could work with regional hospitals to increase the use of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in acute stroke. METHODS In 30 months, 142 patients seen at the Mid America Brain and Stroke Institute received tPA. Site of presentation, protocol selection, and outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS We found that 18.2% (1...
