The practice and study of medicine in Persia has a long and prolific history. The ancient Iranian medicine was combined by different medical traditions from Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, China and Greece for more than 4000 years and merged to form what became the nucleus and foundation of medical practice in the European countries in the 13th century. The Iranian academic centers like Jundishapur ...

selection of superior varieties of wide adaptability over diverse farming environments is of high importance, prior to any varietal recommendation. in order to study yield stability of alfalfa, 17 ecotypes were evaluated during 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 growing seasons at 10 research stations. each trial was carried out according to a completely randomized block design of 3 replications with fres...

in this paper, by introducing two virtual decision-making units (dmus) called ideal dmu (idmu) and anti-ideal dmu (admu) with fuzzy inputs-outputs, the efficiency evaluation of dmus are done by fuzzy data envelopment analysis (fdea). therefore, we evaluate dmus from the perspective of the best and worst possible relative efficiency. for each dmu two efficiencies are calculated while inputs and ...

Combination of electrodes, such as aluminum and iron in a single electrochemical cell provide an alternative method for removal of arsenic from water by electrocoagulation. The removal process has been studied with a wide range of arsenic concentration (1-1000 ppm) at different pH (4-10). Analysis of the electrochemically generated by-products by XRD, XPS, SEM/EDAX, FT-IR, and Mössbauer Spectro...

In previous work Boulton et al., 1998], we have built a proof system that joins an interactive tactic-based theorem prover for a classical logic Gordon and Melham, 1993] with a fully automatic proof planner for a constructive logic Bundy et al., 1990]. This combined system signiicantly improves the automation of the interactive prover, but is unsatisfactory for several reasons. To overcome thes...

Aluminium (Al) rhizotoxicity coincides with low pH; however, it is unclear whether plant tolerance to these two factors is controlled by the same mechanism. To address this question, the Al-resistant alr104 mutant, two Al-sensitive mutants (als3 and als5), and wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana were compared in long-term exposure (solution culture) and in short-term exposure experiments (H(+) and K...
