background: the reporting of adverse drug reactions (adrs) by nurses in hospitals is very important.aims: this study was aimed at investigating the impact of an educational intervention to improve adr reporting and whethertrained nurses had better knowledge, attitude, and practice toward adr reporting. materials and methods: a total of 300 nurses in a tertiary care teaching hospital in tehran, ...

the error of inertial navigation systems increase versus time, therefore for achieving higher accuracy specially in long time navigations we have to use an aiding system. global positioning system is the best aiding system in this case. in this paper we first simulate a gps and ins; then simulate tightly integration and finally review adaptation method of kalman filtering a fuzzy adaptive kalma...

Two new species of Stenochironomus Kieffer, 1919 are described in Brazil. New records of Stenochironomus nudipupa Borkent, 1984 and S. gladius Borkent, 1984 from Brazil, new data on geographical distribution of S. jubatus Borkent, 1984 and S. triannulatus Borkent, 1984 from the State of Roraima, and S. bacrionis Borkent, 1984 recorded from the State of Amazonas, as well as emended descriptions ...

Along with the creation of new maps, current efforts for improving global land cover (GLC) maps focus on integrating maps by accounting for their relative merits, e.g., agreement amongst maps or map accuracy. Such integration efforts may benefit from the use of multiple GLC reference datasets. Using available reference datasets, this study assesses spatial accuracy of recent GLC maps and compar...

Fuzzy Newton-Cotes method for integration of fuzzy functions that was proposed by Ahmady in [1]. In this paper we construct error estimate of fuzzy Newton-Cotes method such as fuzzy Trapezoidal rule and fuzzy Simpson rule by using Taylor's series. The corresponding error terms are proven by two theorems. We prove that the fuzzy Trapezoidal rule is accurate for fuzzy polynomial of degree one and...

A new computational method based on Wilson wavelets is proposed for solving a class of nonlinear stochastic It^{o}-Volterra integral equations. To do this a new stochastic operational matrix of It^{o} integration for Wilson wavelets is obtained. Block pulse functions (BPFs) and collocation method are used to generate a process to forming this matrix. Using these basis functions and their operat...
