BACKGROUND Significant racial and ethnic health care disparities experienced by Hispanic children with special health care needs (CSHCN) create barriers to enacting culturally competent rehabilitation services. One way to minimize the impact of disparities in rehabilitation is to equip practitioners with culturally relevant functional assessments to accurately determine service needs. Current a...

Proper scheduling of tasks leads to optimum using of time and resources, in order to obtaining best result. One of the most important and complicated scheduling problems is open shop scheduling problem. There are n jobs in open shop scheduling problem which should be processed by m machines. Purpose of scheduling open shop problem is attaining to a suitable order of processing jobs by specified...

Metal-carbon binary clusters generated by the laser vaporization of Ni/Co and Ni/Y doped graphite samples used for the macroscopic laser-oven production of SWNTs were studied. Positive and negative clusters generated by the laser-vaporization supersonic-expansion cluster beam source were directly injected to the FT-ICR (Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance) mass spectrometer. Depending on ...

Objective: To clarify whether there are any muscle synergy changes in individuals with knee osteoarthritis, and to determine analysis could be applied other musculoskeletal diseases. Methods: Subjects this study included 11 young controls (YC), 10 elderly (EC), osteoarthritis patients (KOA). Gait was assessed on a split-belt treadmill at 3 km/h. A non-negative matrix factorization (NNMF) the el...

Stream control transmission protocol (SCTP) is gaining more & more attention as a potential replacement for the aging TCP owing to several powerful features it provides. However, like TCP, much of SCTP work relates to WAN. In this paper, we examine SCTP from the data center perspective. In particular, we evaluate the most mature open source implementation of SCTP for Linux known as LK-SCTP. We ...

Abstract Several hallmarks of aging have been identified and examined separately in previous exercise studies. For the first time, this study investigates effect lifelong regular humans on two central combined. This cross-sectional involved 129 healthy, non-smoking women, including young elite football players (YF, n = 29), untrained controls (YC, 30), elderly team handball (EH, 35) (EC, 35). F...

The late Mesozoic destruction of the eastern North China Craton (NCC) resulted from intense crust-mantle interaction, culminating in formation world-class gold deposits Jiaodong Peninsula at ca. 120 Ma. We present zircon U-Pb geochronological data, Hf isotopic compositions, whole-rock major and trace element, Sr-Nd-Pb compositions for two suites granitoids: one (the Linglong suite) that hosts s...
