Management of workkow processes is more than just enactment of process activities according to business rules. Time management func-tionality should be provided to control the lifecycle of processes. Time management should address planning of workkow executions in time, provide various estimates about activity execution durations, avoid violations of deadlines assigned to activities and the ent...

objective(s): in positron emission tomography (pet) studies, thoracic movement under free-breathing conditions is a cause of image degradation. respiratory gating (rg) is commonly used to solve this problem. two different methods, i.e., phase-gating (pg) and amplitude-gating (ag) pet, are available for respiratory gating. it is important to know the strengths and weaknesses of both methods when...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $mathbb{A}(R)$ be the set   of ideals of $R$ with non-zero annihilators. In this paper, we first introduce and investigate the principal ideal subgraph of the annihilating-ideal graph of $R$, denoted by $mathbb{AG}_P(R)$. It is a (undirected) graph with vertices $mathbb{A}_P(R)=mathbb{A}(R)cap mathbb{P}(R)setminus {(0)}$, where   $mathbb{P}(R)$ is...

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity. An element $x in R$ is called $mathbb{Z}G$-regular (resp. strongly $mathbb{Z}G$-regular) if there exist $g in G$, $n in mathbb{Z}$ and $r in R$ such that $x^{ng}=x^{ng}rx^{ng}$ (resp. $x^{ng}=x^{(n+1)g}$). A ring $R$ is called $mathbb{Z}G$-regular (resp. strongly $mathbb{Z}G$-regular) if every element of $R$ is $mathbb{Z}G$-regular (resp. strongly $...

In this paper, the concept of k-regular fuzzy matrix as a general- ization of regular matrix is introduced and some basic properties of a k-regular fuzzy matrix are derived. This leads to the characterization of a matrix for which the regularity index and the index are identical. Further the relation between regular, k-regular and regularity of powers of fuzzy matrices are dis- cussed.

Objective(s): Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are not only specific physical and chemical properties but also are considered for their antibacterial activity and ecofriendly.Materials and Methods:In this study a simple, cost effective biologically method for Ag+reducing to Ag NPs using Echinops extractas a stabilizer, and reducing agent.Ag NPs were analyzed using UV-Vis spectrometry,TEM, XRD and ...

semi-regular locales are extensions of the classical semiregularspaces. we investigate the conditions such that semi-regularizationis a functor. we also investigate the conditions such that semi-regularizationis a reflection or coreflection.

this work is devoted to give a charcaterization of a pomonoid $s$such that all cyclic $s$-posets are regular injective.

the concept of algebraic hyperstructures introduced by marty as a generalization of ordinary algebraic structures. in an ordinary algebraic structure, the composition of two elements is an element, while in an algebraic hyperstructure, the composition of two elements is a set. the concept of ?-semihyperrings is a generalization of semirings, a generalization of semihyper rings and a generalizat...
