context this literature review mostly emphasizes on the challenges and barriers for acceptance and implementation of electronic health records (ehrs) in developing countries. although the willingness of developing countries for acceptance and implementation of ehrs is rising, they will face some challenges and barriers which can slow down their progress due to the multidisciplinary and complexi...

The event by event fluctuations of the ratio of positively to negatively charged hadrons are predicted within the UrQMD model. Corrections for finite acceptance and finite net charge are derived. These corrections are relevant to compare experimental data and transport model results to previous predictions. The calculated fluctuations at RHIC and SPS energies are shown to be compatible with a h...

The development of genetically modified (GM) food has been a matter of considerable interest and worldwide public controversy. As a result ‘uncertainties’, ‘risks’ and ‘benefits’ that such new technologies portray to the food industry and consumers have been widely disseminated. However, there is limited understanding of what lies behind “demand side effects” to the introduction of these ‘poten...

business process reengineering (bpr) –the key mechanism for fundamental redesign in processes has a critical role in productivity improvement. but it needs some enablers in initiation phase including human resources acceptance. there are two behavioral theories containing factors for acceptance promotion: innovation diffusion and technology acceptance model. in this research we have used these ...

Pearson’s test and likelihood ratio test are two of the classical tests frequently used for testing the equality of r distributions using the data in the contingency tables. Presently we suggest an alternative test for testing the equality of distributions. It is found that the alternative test has, in general, more satisfactory levels of the acceptance probabilities under the null hypothesis, ...

Statistical researchers have shown increasing interest in generating truncated multivariate normal distributions. In this paper, we only assume that the acceptance region is convex and we focus on rejection sampling. We propose a new algorithm that outperforms crude rejection method for the simulation of truncated multivariate Gaussian random variables. The proposed algorithm is based on a gene...

The design of acceptance sampling plans for hybrid exponential distribution under a truncated life test is considered in this paper. In this work, experimental values are treated as observed values of exponential random variables whose mean is assumed to be a fuzzy variable in the sense of Liu [25]. A new chance distribution called hybrid exponential distribution is considered in this paper and...

Scheduling multiple versions of the tasks on different processors can provide fault tolerant. One of the models that is used for fault-tolerant scheduling of real–time tasks, namely, is the Primary backup (PB) model. In this approach, two versions are executed serially on two different processors and an acceptance test is used to check the result. The backup version is executed only if the outp...

The kinetics of collective rearrangements in solution, such as protein folding and nanocrystal phase transitions, often involve free energy barriers that are both long and rough. Applying methods of transition path sampling to harvest simulated trajectories that exemplify such processes is typically made difficult by a very low acceptance rate for newly generated trajectories. We address this p...
