Vehicular ad hoc networks are an emerging technology with an extensive capability in various applications including vehicles safety, traffic management and intelligent transportation systems. Considering the high mobility of vehicles and their inhomogeneous distributions, designing an efficient routing protocol seems necessary. Given the fact that a road is crowded at some sections and is not c...

current research attempted to compare the effect of 10-day oral supplementation with saffron and indomethacin in the prevention of delayed onset muscle soreness (doms). thirty-nine healthy and inactive male students divided into three groups: saffron (300 mg), indomethacin (75 mg), and control groups. muscle soreness protocol performed with 80% of 1rm in four sessions and each session had 20 re...

the maintenance of the endangered caspian brown trout salmo trutta caspius populations in iran depends on its artificial breeding. there is no information on how current hatchery breeding protocol influences effective population size of breeders (ne), which is a critical parameter to maintain genetic diversity in future generations. the current hatchery protocol (chp) was comparatively evaluate...

An efficient protocol for the selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes withH5IO6/V2O5 in ionic liquid [bmpy][PF6] has been developed. High yields of the products, mildreaction conditions and simple experimental procedure make this protocol complementary tothe existing methods. The catalyst can be reused for several times without obvious loss of thecatalytic activity.

Background: For effective treatment of organophosphate (OP) poisoning, development of a standardized protocol with flexible dose regimen for atropine and pralidoxime is an essential step. In this study, we aimed to assess the protocol devised in our setting; Bach Mai Hospital Poison Treatment Center, for treatment of OP poisoning that included a higher dose regimen of pralidoxime (2PAM). Method...

The use of directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks can significantly improve global performance due to a high spatial channel reuse. Nevertheless, its introduction poses new location dependent problems related to the MAC protocol. In this paper, the Balanced Incomplete Block Design theory has been exploited to develop a new MAC protocol for wireless ad hoc networks using directional ant...
