The present study was undertaken to investigate the toxic effects of higher doses (1,00,000 IU i.e. 2.5 mg/kg body weight (BW)) of vitamin D3, concomitantly with bacterial endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides: LPS) to study the immunomodulatory potential of vitamin D3 in IBL-80 broiler chicks. The chicks were divided into four groups [group I (NSS), group II (LPS), group III (Vit. D3 + NSS), and gro...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a specific category of wireless ad-hoc networks where their performance is highly affected by application, life time, storage capacity, processing power, topology changes, the communication medium and bandwidth. These limitations necessitate an effective data transport control in WSNs considering quality of service, energy efficiency, and congestion control. ...

Detecting the weak and strong congestion statuses of decision-making units (DMUs) measuring them via data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an important issue that has been discussed in several studies with different views. The efficiency frontier a concept derived from underlying production possibility set (PPS), related to them. Still, researchers have defined for each DMU many previous ignored l...

acute venous congestion leads to blood stasis in the tissue and impaired blood perfusion. using medicinal leech is an old method of reducing tissue congestion. there are numerous factors in leech saliva and hirudin that have important roles in the leeching beneficial effect. in this study, an animal study was performed to compare leech therapy with heparin therapy in the treatment of acute veno...

as wireless networks with high data rate get widely deployed, improving the performance of tcp over these networks plays vital role. wireless link losses have dramatic adverse impact on tcp performance due to the difficulty in distinguishing the congestion losses from wireless link losses. we first, studied the various existing bandwidth estimation algorithms over the wireless networks. in this...

Starting from a model of traffic congestion, we introduce a minimal-flow–like variational problem whose solution is characterized by a very degenerate elliptic PDE. We precisely investigate the relations between these two problems, which can be done by considering some weak notion of flow for a related ODE. We also prove regularity results for the degenerate elliptic PDE, which enables us in so...

Congestion indicates an economic state where inputs are overly invested. Evidence of congestion occurs whenever reducing some inputs can increase outputs. In this paper, we present a new model to identify and evaluate congestion in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). We use output efficient DMUs to construct our proposed model to evaluate congestion. We also proposed a linear inequality and equali...
