to evaluate the effect of zn sulfate foliar application on morphologic and quantitative characteristics of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) cultivars, a field experiment carried out in ramin agriculture and natural resources university of khouzestan, iran, in a factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with four replications, during 2012-2013. treatments consisted of two sp...

in order to investigate the effects of water deficit at different growth stages of chickpea genotypes, determining the best drought tolerance index and genotypes, an experiment carried out in the saatlu agricultural research station of uromia in 2008-2009. the experiment was split plot based on the randomized complete blocks design with four replications, in which, four levels of irrigation as ...

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seed and oil have long been used widely as healthy foods to supply energy and prevent aging. Some of the main active anti-oxidative constituents in sesame seeds are γ-tocopherol and phenols. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between roasting temperature and time with γ-tocopherol and total phenolic compounds (TPC) of sesame seeds when roas...

1 LIP6, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, 4 Place Jussieu, 75252 Paris Cedex 05, France. [email protected] Abstract. Knowledge about forced moves enables to select a small number of moves from the set of possible moves. It is very important in complex domains where search trees have a large branching factor. Knowing forced moves drastically cuts the search trees. We propose a language an...

The maxn algorithm (Luckhardt and Irani, 1986) for playing multiplayer games is flexible, but there are only limited techniques for pruning maxn game trees. This paper presents other theoretical limitations of the maxn algorithm, namely that tie-breaking strategies are crucial to maxn, and that zerowindow search is not possible in maxn game trees. We also present quantitative results derived fr...

We extend Sandholm’s bidtree-based IDA* algorithm for combinatorial auction winner determination to deal with negotiation over tasks with precedence constraints. We evaluate its performance, and show that the order of items in the bidtree has a major impact on performance. Specifically, performance is enhanced if the items with the largest numbers of bids are at the top of the bidtree. This is ...
