Different methods for spinal cord ischemia (SCI) prevention with sac perfusion are reported before the completion of endovascular thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair; however, today there no described techniques reperfusion in case SCI occurring after complete exclusion (48-72 hours). The “safe-line” technique allows a simple and fast (within 1 hour from symptom onset) up to 72 hours comple...

Lattice structures are often used in knowledge processing, but starting from a partial order, completion into a lattice poses eeciency problems. We use some recent results on lattice theory to propose an on-line algorithm for eeciently computing of the smallest lattice containing a given partial order, called the Dedekind-MacNeille completion. By on-line we mean that the elements are added if n...

the aim of this study is to propose a new mixed integer linear programming (milp) model to find the minimum required number of yard cranes, rubber tyred gantry cranes (rtgcs), for completion the total amount of works at the end of planning horizon. in other word, we find the optimal number of yard cranes in a container terminal which completes the total amount of works. the paper supports the p...

In 2010, H14 influenza A viruses were recovered from clinically normal sea ducks in the United States. These are the first H14 isolates recovered in the Western Hemisphere and represent the only documented H14 influenza A viruses isolated since the original isolates were recovered from near the Caspian Sea during 1982.

Figural completion, in its most common form, is the preattentive inference of the shape and location of the occluded parts of visible surfaces. Yet it also underlies illusory contour phenomena, which are associated with completion of occluding, rather than occluded surfaces. Phenomenological accounts, such as Kanizsa'ss5], though insightful, lack the precision necessary to formulate a computati...

In this paper, we consider the recognition problem on two classes of perfectly orderable graphs, namely, the HHD-free and the Welsh-Powell opposition graphs (or WPOgraphs). In particular, we prove properties of the chordal completion of a graph and show that a modified version of the classic linear-time algorithm for testing for a perfect elimination ordering can be efficiently used to determin...

As wavelet-based image coding is set to become more widely used (e.g. with the completion of the JPEG2000 standard), memory efficiency for wavelet-based coding is becoming an increasingly important issue. In this paper we present a complete system to perform low memory wavelet image coding. Our approach is “line-based” in that the images are read line by line and only the minimum required numbe...
