conclusions using the simulation as a decision making tool helps us to decide how we can reduce outpatient's waiting time. comparison of outputs of this scenario and the based- case scenario in simulation model shows that combining physician's work time changing with patient's admission time changing (scenario 9) would reduce patient waiting time about 73.09%. due to dynamic and complex nature ...

abstract the most important part of the design and operation of the supplier systems of agricultural water requirement is the estimating of plant water requirement. in this study by using the lars-wg5 model, downscaled the data of hadcm3 model according a1b, a2 and b1 scenarios that confirmed by ipcc, and was simulated monthly amounts of precipitation, minimum temperature, maximum temperature a...

Sleep mode control is essential to the energy efficiency of small cell networks. However, frequently switching on/off small cell base stations (SBSs) may cause the degradation to the quality-of-service of their users and the increase of network operational cost as well. In this study, the authors propose a novel dual-threshold-based sleep mode control strategy for small cell networks. The motiv...

zayanderoud basin is one of the important agricultural areas in country level because of climatic variety and resuscitative water of zayanderoud river. since frost phenomenon especially late spring frost incurs great damages on fruit trees and agricultural products of this region, it is necfessary to study frost in this basin.in this research, the intensity of frost during cold period and sprin...

This study describes the methodology and results for calculating future global aviation emissions of carbon dioxide and oxides of nitrogen from air traffic under four of the IPCC/SRES (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change/Special Report on Emissions Scenarios) marker scenarios: A1B, A2, B1, and B2. In addition, a mitigation scenario has been calculated for the B1 scenario, requiring rapid ...
