ISO 14143-1 specifies that a functional size measurement (FSM) method must provide measurement procedures to quantify the functional user requirements (FURs) of software. Such quantitative information, functional size, is typically used, for instance, in software estimation. One of the international standards for FSM is the COSMIC FSM method – ISO 19761– which was designed to be applied both to...

Coloration of mefenamic acid (MFA) was investigated in the presence of mesoporous silica FSM-16 with 16.0 A (Oc) and 45.0 A (Doc) pore diameter. The color change of MFA/FSM-16 physical mixture from white to deep blue was observed by sealed-heating (SH) and the subsequent humidification (HU). The coloration and the color difference were caused by the changes of chroma and lightness. In the case ...

A financial comparison of a parallel sewer based (SB) system with activated sludge, and a fecal sludge management (FSM) system with onsite septic tanks, collection and transport (C&T) trucks, and drying beds was conducted. The annualized capital for the SB ($42.66 capita(-1) year(-1)) was ten times higher than the FSM ($4.05 capita(-1) year(-1)), the annual operating cost for the SB ($11.98 cap...

OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of probiotic soymilk fortified with omega-3 in diabetic rats. METHODS Soymilk (SM), fermented soymilk (FSM), and fermented soymilk fortified with omega-3 (FSM + omega-3) were prepared. Rats were randomly assigned to five groups of 13 animals per group. Diabetes was induced by a single injection of streptozotocin (STZ) 15 min a...

artificial insemination (ai) is an important technique for breeding that has been extensively used in dairy farming worldwide. however, it has not been fully adopted in iran's dairy farms, especially in ardabil province. the main objective of this research was to study factors affecting adoption of ai in dairy farms of ardabil province. in order to predict the adoption of ai, technology ad...

Introduction A significant part of digital circuits is constituted by sequential synchronous circuits behaviour of which can be presented by a finite state machine (FSM). So nothing strange the FSM synthesis methods are continually developed (cf. the monographs [14, 19] or [17, 8]). One of the most crucial steps in FSM synthesis is the encoding of FSM states referred to as the state assignment ...

A three-component process for the one-pot synthesis of 6-amino-4-aryl-5-cyano-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles is described by the three-component reaction of aldehydes, 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one and malononitrile in the presence of Fe3O4@FSM-16-SO3H as an efficient magnetically recyclable mesoporous catalyst. Folded shee...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects Polygonatum sibiricum (P. sibiricum) on microbial fermentation, physicochemical properties, and functional properties fermented soymilk. Three types soymilk were prepared. first type directly from regular (fermented soymilk, FSM), other two after adding P. P-FSM) or polysaccharides PP-FSM). differences in physical chemical indexes such as...
