This study applies some of the most practical longshore sand transport formulations and evaluates their adequacy to estimate the total (suspended and bed load) longshore sediment transport rate (LSTR) at Buarcos Beach, in the West coast of Portugal. The straightforward methodology here present is simple to apply and therefore useful to quickly obtain a first estimate of the littoral transport i...

PURPOSE The purpose of this report was to review an emerging alternative treatment to pulpectomies and extractions for nonvital primary teeth called lesion sterilization and tissue repair (LSTR) and provide the results of three clinical case applications. LSTR is a noninstrumentation endodontic treatment that involves a triantibiotic mixture in a propylene glycol vehicle, which is used to disin...

Real-time systems like pervasive computing have to complete executing a task within the predetermined time while ensuring that the execution results are logically correct. Such systems require intelligent scheduling methods that can adequately promptly distribute the given tasks to a processor(s). In this paper, we propose LSTR (Least Slack Time Rate first), a new and simple scheduling algorith...

In the cloud computing, many of the users send requests to cloud at the same time to access services. Thus, a big challenge of scheduling of these tasks is in cloud computing. Many algorithms like FCFS, SJF, Priority based, RR, MLQ, LSTR used to schedule the tasks in cloud computing. In cloud computing, most of the data centers consume vast amount of energy and take much more time to schedule t...

The shoreline temporarily recedes significantly as incoming storm waves reach the beach and cause wave breaking energy dissipation. However, since existing change model simulates based on longshore sediment transport rate (LSTR) empirical formulae, which are derived using correlation between flux littoral drift, it is difficult to simulate this phenomenon, drafted with transverse drift. Therefo...
