Venous shunt in cardiopulmonary physiology means that a fraction of the total cardiac output from the right side of the heart does not take part in gas exchange in the lungs and so passes unchanged into the arterial circulation (Berggren, 1942; Riley and Cournand, 1951; and Mcllroy, 1965). Since the shunted blood is mixed venous blood, the terms venous admixture, right-to-left shunt, and venous...

While MPI is the most common mechanism for expressing parallelism, MPI programs remain poorly integrated in Unix environments. We introduce MPISH2, an MPI process manager analogous to serial Unix shells. It provides better integration capabilities for MPI programs by providing a uniform execution mechanism for parallel and serial programs, exposing return codes and standard I/O stream information.

pinch technology is one of the best methods for designing a multi stream heat exchanger(mshe) through a network; current pinch-based methods, however, lead to a larger and more complicateddesign problems. the major drawback of the current methods is they result in designs having more individual mshe sections than essential, correspond to the enthalpy intervals on temperature vs. enthalpy diagra...

Emerging multimedia communication environments, such as Environment-to-Environment (E2E) systems, require detecting complex events in environments using multimodal sensory data. Based on these spatio-temporal events, systems select and send data from appropriate sensors. Most existing stream processing systems consider temporal streams of alpha-numeric data and provide efficient approach to dea...

Stream processing engines have been proposed in the past for handling streaming data coming from data sources. But considering sensor networks, there is a need for an approach that allows stream models to reach also computation-capable constrained embedded devices and to implement storage, exchange and computation on those. We propose a stream model that implements sensor-device data handling. ...

Soil detachment is known as an important process in soil erosion and its quantification is necessary to establish a basic understanding of erosion. This study was carried out to find the best flow erosivity indicator(s) for predicting detachment rate at low slopes. For this purpose, 12 experiments including 6 flow discharges (75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200 ml/s) and 2 slope gradients (1.5 and 2...

Synchronous stream cipher HENKOS is proposed by Marius Oliver Gheorghit to eprint for analyzing the algorithm by cryptologic community. At the first look of HENKOS, it can be observed that a 256 byte secret key is an undesirable quality of the algorithm. Also, the algorithm is not efficient in case of streaming data that has to encrypt instantaneously, this is because the algorithm generates a ...
