Recently, there has been great interest in the community over heterogeneous wireless networks in order to support services with high quality. The integration of Wimax and Wi-Fi technologies in communication systems such as Voice ,FTP,Video conducted heterogeneous system and reveal that the proposed network selection technique can effectively decide the optimum network through making trade-offs ...

Cloud data storage platforms have attracted increasing attention in data management. Data replication is a well-known technique that reduces access latency, thus improving cloud data storage availability and performance. Nonetheless, replica placement algorithms are among the significant issues in data replication, which affect data availability and access performance considerably. Replica plac...

Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is characterised by poor insight or underestimation of hemiplegia after brain injury. Recent explanations of AHP have used an established 'forward model', which proposes that normal motor awareness involves comparing the predicted and actual sensory consequences of movements. These accounts propose that AHP patients may be able to form representations of their i...

Electronic commerce (EC) development takes place in a complex and dynamic environment that includes high levels of risk and uncertainty. This paper proposes a new method to assess the risks associated with EC development using multi-criteria decision-making techniques A model based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOP...

Land suitability classification is important in planning and managing sustainable land use. Most approaches to land suitability analysis combine a large number of land and soil parameters, and are time-consuming and costly. In this study, a potentially useful technique (combined feature selection and fuzzy-AHP method) to increase the efficiency of land suitability analysis was presented. To thi...

INTRODUCTION An enterprise resource planning (ERP) system can be considered as a solution for enterprises to standardize their business processes. Many organizations invest in ERP under the assumption that the implemented ERP system will deal with their interrelated business goals, such as achieving their financial targets quicker, managing and streamlining their operational processes, and impr...

Aging is associated with learning deficits and a decrease in neuronal excitability, reflected by an enhanced post-burst afterhyperpolarization (AHP), in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons. To identify the current(s) underlying the AHP altered in aging neurons, whole-cell voltage-clamp recording experiments were performed in hippocampal slices from young and aging rabbits. Similar to previous rep...

After the recent establishment of Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2030, sustainable design products in general infrastructures particular emerge as a challenging field for development application multicriteria decision-making tools. Sustainability-related decision problems usually involve, by definition, wide variety number nature conflicting criteria, thus pushing limits conventional ...

CA1 pyramidal neurons from animals that have acquired hippocampal tasks show increased neuronal excitability, as evidenced by a reduction in the postburst afterhyperpolarization (AHP). Studies of AHP plasticity require stable long-term recordings, which are affected by the intracellular solutions potassium methylsulphate (KMeth) or potassium gluconate (KGluc). Here we show immediate and gradual...

“The theory of decision analysis (DA) is designed to help the individual make a choice among a set of prespecified alternatives” (Keeney and Raiffa 1976, vii). Simply put, the basic DA problem is, How should a decision maker select from a given set of competing alternatives that are evaluated against conflicting objectives? Because operations research (OR) is the science of decision making, OR ...
