conclusions mobiles contamination with different pathogens is extremely common among our health care staffs compared with other societies, and resistance of these isolates to various antibiotics is also detectable. thus, quick assessment of this issue to prevent the spread of these infectious agents is critical for the authorities in our health care systems. results in total, 99.2% of mobile ph...

background: a lot of investigations exist on the biological effects of radiofrequency and microwave radiation however only a few studies have considered non-carcinogenic exposure to radiations specifically from mobile phones. objectives: to introduce some subjective neurological symptoms in mobile phone users. materials and methods: in this cross-sectional descriptive study conducted from march...

A robust algorithm for finger-gesture-based mobile user interfaces (UIs) is presented. The proposed algorithm adopts edge detection for fingertip detection, which is robust to changes in lighting conditions for mobile UIs based on finger gestures. The proposed algorithm has low complexity, and can easily cope with real-time processing using rear-facing cameras in mobile phones. Experimental res...

Objective(s): Scientific interest in potential mobile phone impact on human brain and performance has significantly increased in recent years. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of mobile phone radiation on seizure threshold in mice. Materials and methods:BALB/c male mice were randomly divided into three groups: control, acute, and chronic mobile phone radiation for 30, 60, ...

The proposed algorithm adopts edge detection for fingertip detection, which is robust to changes in lighting conditions for mobile UIs based on finger gestures. The proposed algorithm has low complexity, and can easily cope with real-time processing using rear-facing cameras in mobile phones. Experimental resu...

Mobile Telecommunication standardization in Europe builds on a history formed by European and International standardization bodies, the governments as regulators and the R&D departments of PPT-owned telecommunication operators. This paper describes the standardization approach related to the implementation of the public CPA (Content Provider Access) platform and business model for provision of ...

the main objective of this paper is to argue how the mobile phones have transformed the iranian lifestyle and how the arrival of mobiles has been a catalyst for revolting behavior, and has launched a new consumer behavior and has changed our relationships. the paper explains how the people's behavior has developed a whole new social code in iran. it is argued that the social value of being able...
