Currently a new version of the distance education platform WeLearn [3] to be combined with an agent system ([1], also developed locally) for providing advanced services [2] is under development. In a previous stage of the project software was created to automatically derive keywords from documents, either from the different versions of metadata already contained (various Microsoft file formats,...

As our ability to store information increases, the mechanisms we employ to access that information become ever more important. In this paper, we present Archosum, a prototype of an organizational system that attempts to encapsulate the benefits of both hierarchical and keyword systems. By introducing abstract entities, Archosum provides a simple interface with which users can build and maintain...

backgrounds: thallium-201 is produced through 203tl (p, 3n) 201pb 201tl reaction by cyclotron. this radioisotope has known as one of the cyclotron radioisotopes which is used for myocardial perfusion in the coronary artery disease, tl-201 after chemical purification and quality control in the form of 201tl-chlorid is ready to send to the hospitals. materials and methods: in this work the effect...

ODUCTION ar sensors with dual-polarization capability etter understanding and characterization of hazards. Advanced knowledge-based hazard algorithms would require better knowledge of ttering characteristics of hydrometeors such as , hailstones, and snowflakes. Especially, characteristics becomes important for utilize phase-array dual-polarization radar Traditionally, theoretical approaches [1]...

Based on application requirements, nodes are static or mobile in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Mobility poses challenges in protocol design, especially at the link layer requiring mobility adaptation algorithms to localize mobile nodes and predict link quality to be established with them. This study implements XMAC and Berkeley Media Access Control (BMAC) routing protocols to evaluate perfor...

The quality of hot mix asphalt is affected by the quality and consistency of input aggregates and the control of the production process. To improve the quality of hot mix asphalt, both the aggregates gradation and the process variables must be considered. Current practice involves taking samples from actual production and analyzing them in the lab. The entire process can take two hours, which, ...

abstract- a real-time, site-specific, machine-vision based, inter-row patch herbicide application system was developed and evaluated. the image resolution was 640 × 480 pixels covering a total area of 350 mm x 240 mm of a field composed of four quadrants of 350 mm x 60 mm each. the image frames were processed by labview® and matlab®. the developed algorithm, based on weed coverage ratio and seg...

abstract background and objective: proficiency testing schemes as a part of quality system in clinical and research laboratory centers provides the opportunity to evaluate the quality of test results. in this paper, we try to introduce the proficiency testing schemes as a useful method for achieving standardization and homogenization of test results in clinical and research laboratory centers. ...

We describe a method for generating sentences from “keywords” or “headwords”. This method consists of two main parts, candidate-text construction and evaluation. The construction part generates text sentences in the form of dependency trees by using complementary information to replace information that is missing because of a “knowledge gap” and other missing function words to generate natural ...
