The hub location problem arises in a variety of domains such as transportation and telecommunication systems. In many real-world situations, hub facilities are subject to disruption. This paper deals with the multiple allocation hub location problem in the presence of facilities failure. To model the problem, a two-stage stochastic formulation is developed. In the proposed model, the number of ...

Come with us to read a new book that is coming recently. Yeah, this is a new coming book that many people really want to read will you be one of them? Of course, you should be. It will not make you feel so hard to enjoy your life. Even some people think that reading is a hard to do, you must be sure that you can do it. Hard will be felt when you have no ideas about what kind of book to read. Or...

Based on a novel differencing algorithm, this approach to tracking source code evolution in real-world software systems achieves acceptable precision and overcomes the Unix diff’s versioning limitations. V ersioning and bug-tracking systems are invaluable assets for large software projects that involve developers spread worldwide and numerous users reporting bugs and proposing enhancements. In ...

This paper proposes a novel reflective approach, orthogonal to the classic computational approach, whereby a system performs computation on its software architecture instead of individual components. The approach supports system’s self-management activities such as dynamic reconfiguration to be realized in a systematic and conceptually clean way and added to existing systems without modifying t...

OBJECTIVE To correlate the symptoms, signs and clinical diagnosis in women with vaginal discharge, based on the combined weight of the character of the vaginal discharge and bedside tests, with the laboratory diagnosis. METHODS Women presenting consecutively to the women's health center with vaginal discharge were interviewed and examined for assessment of the quantity and color of the discha...

This paper analyzes the correctness of the subsumption algorithm used in classic, a description logic-based knowledge representation system that is being used in practical applications. In order to deal e ciently with individuals in classic descriptions, the developers have had to use an algorithm that is incomplete with respect to the standard, model-theoretic semantics for description logics....

background : turner syndrome (ts) is a sporadic disorder caused by the absence of all or some parts one x-chromosome with major developmental consequences such as short stature and ovarian failure etc. the minor manifestations of ts are cubitus valgus, micrognatism, high-arched palate, short and/or webbed neck, hypothyroidism, etc. different karyotype abnormalities may lead to different clinica...

OBJECTIVES We propose a novel computational approach for the automated classification of classic versus atypical usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-three patients with UIP were enrolled in this study. They were classified as classic versus atypical UIP by a consensus of 2 thoracic radiologists with more than 15 years of experience using the American Thoracic Soci...

Research papers are usually evaluated via peer review. However, peer review has limitations in evaluating research papers. In this paper, Scienstein and the new idea of ‘collaborative document evaluation’ are presented. Scienstein is a project to evaluate scientific papers collaboratively based on ratings, links, annotations and classifications by the scientific community using the internet. In...
