1. introduction in epic narratives, heroes have a specific and key role in the processing of epic development. some heroes’ roles are based on the situation in which they have been created. thus, the epic narrator states their life journey from the beginning to the end in a vicissitude process. however, some heroes do not have a specific position in epic stories as they appear as a thunder in s...

introduction: seizures are symptoms associated with abnormal electrical activity in electroencephalogram (eeg). the present study was designed to determine the effect of absence seizure on heart rate (hr) changes in electrocardiogram (ecg). methods: hr alterations were recorded simultaneous with spike and wave discharges (swd) by eeg in 6 wag/rij rats as a well characterized and validated genet...

Combinations of C++ features, like inheritance, templates, and class nesting, allow for the expression of powerful component patterns. In particular, research has demonstrated that, using C++ mixin classes, one can express layered component-based designs concisely with efficient implementations. In this paper, we discuss pragmatic issues related to component-based programming using C++ mixins. ...

The new FASTBUS standard has been designed to provide a framework for distributed processing in both experimental data acquisition and accelerator control. The features of FASTBUS which support distributed control are a priority arbitration scheme which allows intercrate as well as intracrate message flow between processors and slave devices; and a high bandwidth to permit efficient sharing of ...

The growth of the Internet Things (IoT) in various mission-critical applications generates service heterogeneity with different priority labels. A set virtual network function (VNF) orders represents chaining (SFC) for a particular to robustly execute virtualization (NFV)-enabled environment. In IoT networks, configuration adaptive SFC has emerged ensure optimality and elasticity resource expen...

This article presents a control scheme in the stationary reference frame for static synchronous compensators (STATCOMs) that provide three features: 1) regulation of positive-sequence voltage to nominal value; 2) full cancellation negative-sequence voltage; and 3) peak limitation injected currents. These features can help improve performance these devices under perturbed grid conditions, includ...

A lot of genre classification work to date has gone into exploring features that demarcate genre either at the lowest (sample) level or the highest level (overall acoustic characteristics of the song). Features evaluated at the sample level are more concerned with sonic qualities like timbre and pitch, whereas higher-level features tend to focus on key, mode, tempo, and other descriptive featur...

This paper addresses the modelling and evaluation of cell scheduling policies in ATM multiplexers using stochastic Petri nets. In particular, we compare four cell scheduling policies: a FIFO policy with and without non-preemptive priorities, a threshold priority policy as recently proposed by Lee and Sengupta, and an extension thereof. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we want to stress ...
