positivism is an empirical approach for understanding of human communication and phenomena, which raised firstly french famous thinker “august comte”. human and social sciences were under domination of positive thought for a long time. in criminal law inter alia italian famous thinkers sought to analyses the crime problem with a positive approach. however, some of their point of view such as bo...

Single spinal anesthesia in transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) has been reported to be unable to prevent obturator nerve stimulation and adductor muscle contraction, which can cause complications like bladder perforation. The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the classic and inguinal approaches for obturator nerve block (ONB). Seventy patients with cancers of the...

Boerhaave syndrome (BS) is a spontaneous esophageal perforation and is a life-threating but uncommon disorder. This syndrome involves a transmural perforation and typically occurs after forceful emesis. The prognosis is dependent on rapid diagnosis and correct management. The classic presentation of BS consists of vomiting, subcutaneous emphysema, and lower thoracic pain. However, significant s...

If the classical inference relation is considered, AC is clearly not deductively valid. Moreover, adding AC to Classical Logic (CL) as an extra inference rule would result in the trivial logic. This is called the /irrelevance problem/ towards abduction. In order to provide a nice formal account of abduction processes, this problem has to be faced. In this lunch talk, I will present several adap...

In this paper, the size dependent behavior of the gold micro-switches has been studied. This behavior becomes noticeable for a structure when the characteristic size such as thickness or diameter is close to its internal length-scale parameter. The size dependent effect is insignificant for the high ratio of the characteristic size to the length-scale parameter, which is the case of the silicon...

Although ‘Halcyon’ means serene environment which pervasive computing aims at, we have tried to present a different interpretation of this word. Through our approach, we look at it in context of achieving future ‘calm technology’. The paper gives a general overview of the state of pervasive computing today, proposes the ‘HALCYON Model’ and outlines the ‘social’ challenges faced by system design...

in this paper,  a heuristic algorithm is proposed in order to solve a nonlinear lexicography goal programming (nlgp) by using an efficient initial point. some numerical experiments showed that the search quality by the proposed heuristic in a multiple objectives problem depends on the initial point features, so in the proposed approach the initial point is retrieved by data envelopment analysis...
