The rapid development and the heterogeneous nature of the Web ensure that it is impossible to develop a complete catalog of all of the resources and services available on the Web. As a result, no single operating system can be used for Web computation, since it will necessarily be incomplete. Furthermore, it is unclear that such an operating system would even be useful, considering the differen...

We discuss the Web Operating System (WOSTM ) approach to global computing. We show that the heterogeneous and dynamic nature of the Web or Internet makes it impossible to define a fixed set of operating system services, usable for all services. Rather, we propose that generalized software configuration techniques, based on a demand-driven technique called eduction, can be used to define version...

The Wireless Office System (WOS) is getting its momentum in the wireless industry, how to effectively use the 3G resources to deploy optimized WOS system is the focus of this proposal. The first one is the concept and implementation of the code reuse of 3G WOS. To compete with wire line and to ensure the success of wireline migration to wireless, the MOU needs to be substantially increased for ...

Thomson Reuters’Web of Science (WoS) is undoubtedly a great tool for scientiometrics purposes. It allows one to retrieve and compute different measures such as the total number of papers that satisfy a particular condition; however, it also is well known that this tool imposes several different restrictions that make obtaining certain results difficult. One of those constraints is that the tool...

This paper presents work related to the design of distributed systems, which is useful for emerging Internet applications. We propose algorithms for searching and managing distributed information about resources and services using locally available warehouses. The concept of warehouses has been introduced in the Web Operating System (WOS) (Kropf 1999). Warehouses have the ability to decide whic...

Introduction: In the current study, we compared the h-indices of Web of Science (WOS), SCOPUS, and GS of the Iranian nuclear medicine scientists Methods: Full time members of two major nuclear medicine research centers of Iran with more than 5 year of experience (Nuclear Medicine Research Center of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences, and Research Institute for Nuclear Medicine of Tehran Un...

  Background: We conducted a comprehensive bibliometrics analysis to calculate the H, G, M, A and R indicators for all Iranian biomedical research centers (IBRCs) from the output of ISI Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus between 1991 and 2010. We compared the research performance of the research centers according to these indicators.   Methods : This was a cross-sectional and descriptive-analytica...

In this paper, a weighted order statistic (WOS) filtering structure admitting real-valued weights is introduced. The proposed filtering approach can effectively address a number of signal and image processing applications that require robust bandpass or highpass operations where the underlying contamination follows a nonsymmetric heavy-tailed distribution. The effect of negative weighting in th...

this study mainly aims to compare the quantity of iranian publications and their citation impact in the two popular citation databases, scopus and web of science. the documents which specified iran as their affiliated country published during 1998-2007 were selected as iran’s publications in the two databases. during the examined years, iran has published 49198 documents in scopus and 35061 doc...
