In the packed string matching problem, each machine word accommodates α characters, thus an n-character text occupies n/α memory words. We extend the Crochemore-Perrin constantspace O(n)-time string matching algorithm to run in optimal O(n/α) time and even in real-time, achieving a factor α speedup over traditional algorithms that examine each character individually. Our solution can be efficie...

the incidence and hematological effects of helminth infection during pregnancy were investigated among pregnant women in isiala, mbano, southeast nigeria.totally 282 pregnant women were enlisted for the study between october 2011 and september 2012. stool samples were examined for intestinal helminths using formalin-ether sedimentation technique. hemoglobin (hb) and packed cell volume (pcv) lev...

A packed bed thermal storage has several desirable characteristics to be used for energy storage. The behavior of packed bed is predicted by set of differential equations. A numerical solution is developed for packed bed storage tank accounting to the secondary phenomena of thermal losses and conduction effect. The effect of heat loss to surrounding (K1), conduction effect (K2) and air capacita...

introduction:despite advances in disease prevention and food materials technology, food – borne diseases are still a major problem in both developed and developing countries. morever, meat plays a key role in transfer of bacteria, especially “zoonotic” to humans. therefore, we decided to investigate the outbreak of pathogenic bacteria such as salmonella,campylobacter, yersinia and aeromonas in ...

Background: Coronary artery bypass surgery is one of the surgeries in which high blood transfusions are needed. About 20% of all surgical operations require a blood transfusion. Packed cell administration increases perioperative morbidity and mortality. In the United States, from every 1000 people, one has undergone a coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and it is estimated that around 800,000...
