We present the abundance ratios [X/H] of a large set of chemical species with T C from 75 to 1600 K in an almost complete set of 105 planet-host stars and in a volume-limited comparison sample of 88 stars without any known planets. The large range of different T C covered by all the analysed elements allows us to investigate possible anomalous trends of [X/H] vs. T C in targets with planets wit...

ENERGY EFFICIENCY EXPLORATION OF COARSE-GRAIN RECONFIGURABLE ARCHITECTURE WITH EMERGING NONVOLATILE MEMORY

BACKGROUND Anaesthetic requirements may be reduced following surgery employing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This study, in dogs, determined the role of a) volatile agents (enflurane [E] vs isoflurane [I]), b) oxygenator (bubble [B] vs membrane [M]), and c) presence [FL] vs absence [NoFL] of an in-line arterial filter in the bypass circuit in altering anaesthetic requirements following CPB. M...

soil drainage conditions significantly affect the chemical properties of soil, particularly type and the extent of iron oxides. soil magnetic susceptibility (?) has a close relationship with drainage conditions. eight soil profiles, in four regions of fars province, with aquic and non-aquic soil moisture regimes were studied to determine the effect of drainage conditions on ? and on chemical fo...

chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in adults. anemia is known as comorbidity in many chronic diseases that can increase morbidity and mortality of copd. recent studies have shown that anemia may be more prevalent than expected in copd patients and can increase disabilities of copd. in this study we have evaluated the correlation be...

To achieve high performance transaction systems vertical as well as horizontal system growth is considered. A prime obstacle for linear performance growth is the unfavourable ratio of I/O time vs. CPU time in systems using conventional disk architecture. For this reason, we propose a fast and non-volatile extended memory which provides synchronous page-oriented access for closely coupled proces...
