Our civilization is based on metals, among other life supports. The existing ore deposits are becoming rapidly depleted by almost exponentially increasing demand and production and major new ore discoveries are needed. Mineral exploration is supported by modern tools and scientific ideas, but geological characteristics of orebodies and their rock associations have still to be visualized.The tim...

background: we are living in an era in which different branches of science are growing very rapidly. therefore, retrieving and summarizing all new valid findings on a specific subject is one of the most important priorities of scientists. the aim of the present article is to categorize different review studies within the health domain based on their approach to retrieving and summarizing origin...

The computational solution of large scale linear programming problems contains various difficulties. One of the difficulties is to ensure numerical stability. There is another difficulty of a different nature, namely the original data, contains errors as well. In this paper, we show that the effect of the random errors in the original data has a diminishing tendency for the optimal value as the...
