Abstract: This paper aims to tap the potential of air conditioning loads (ACLs) for consuming photovoltaic power (PV) and wind power (WP). By fully considering different thermal comfort of different users, an ACL twice-clustered model based on different ACL parameters and users tolerance values (UTV) is built. Then, a two-stage ACL control method based on both temperature control (TC) and switc...

BACKGROUND Prospective and retrospective studies have shown that empiric use of fibrinolytic agents in sudden cardiac arrest is safe and may improve outcomes in sudden cardiac arrest. Use of fibrinolytic agents for this indication is increasing in response to these data. METHODS A prospective multicenter observational trial was performed in three emergency departments (EDs) to determine the p...

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a clinicopathological syndrome characterized by the association of venous and/or arterial thrombo-embolic events, pregnancy morbidity and the presence of circulating antiphospholipid (APL) antibodies, namely lupus anticoagulant (LA) and/or anticardiolipin antibodies (ACLs). The diagnosis of definite APS is made when the patient fulfils one clinical (thrombosis...

Evidence for the impact of prehospital, physician-delivered advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) on survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is conflicting. The prospective observational study by Yasunaga and co-workers demonstrates an improved survival at 1 month associated with prehospital physician-delivered ACLS over emergency life-saving technician-delivered ACLS. These effects are add...

The usability of Access Control Lists (ACLs) a widely used enterprise software for directory information services called OpenLDAP is addressed. A service to store variety data such as employee and passwords, can be seen critical infrastructure component an enterprise. Security in particular, access control paramount importance, provides ACLs this purpose that administrator configure. usability,...

Despite the substantial number of multi-agent systems that use an Agent Communication Language (ACL) the dust has not settled yet over the landscape of ACLs. The semantic specification issues have monopolized the debate at the expense of other important pragmatic issues that must be adequately resolved in the immediate future if ACLs are going to support the development of robust agent systems....

The correlation coefficient between the two classifications was computed over the 36 segments for each slide. Correlation shows how well the position of lipid in the two classifications match, even though the absolute values of total lipid areas (i.e., manual and automated) differed. Figure 3 shows that more than 50% of the slides had a correlation coefficient greater than 0.8. Thus, we can say...
