We present a method to visit all nodes in a forest of data structures while taking into account object placement. We call the technique a Localized Tracing Scheme as it improves locality of reference during object tracing activity. The method organizes the heap into regions and uses trace queues to defer and group tracing of remote objects. The principle of localized tracing reduces memory traf...

Respiratory amyloidosis is a rare disease which refers to localized aberrant extracellular protein deposits within the airways. Tracheobronchial amyloidosis (TBA) refers to the deposition of localized amyloid deposits within the upper airways. Treatments have historically focused on bronchoscopic techniques including debridement, laser ablation, balloon dilation, and stent placement. We present...

This paper presents a novel video watermarking algorithm based on two key ideas: statistical invisibility and contentsynchronized placement. We argue that statistical invisibility is essential to protect video watermarks from statistical collusion, and present a natural way to induce this property using a content-dependent spatially localized watermarking framework. We introduce the notion of a...

in recent years, the studies of location play a key role in success and stability of economic activities. location studies are under consideration in both national and international levels. meanwhile, identification of goals and methods of solving location problems have significant importance. the purpose of this paper is to examine spatial distribution of economic activities in 14 zones of esf...

objective(s): appendicitis remains the most common condition in the pediatric population requiring emergency abdominal operation. management of acute simple appendicitis is well described but controversy remains as to the optimal treatment of complicated appendicitis. common complications of acute appendicitis include: localized peritonitis and abscess formation, flegmon and general peritonitis...

Pemphigus foliaceus is an autoimmune blistering condition more often than not associated with generalized lesions. Localized Pemphigus foliaceus is a rare entity. Herein, we report a case of pemphigus foliaceus localized on the face. A 64-year-old woman was referred to our clinic with a 2-year history of erythematous plaque on the right side of her face. The histology report was compatible with...

the term globalization undoubtedly has affected all parts of humanity life in current century. globalization as a comprehensive phenomenon has influenced economical, political, social and cultural aspects of our societies. contemporary architecture as a multidimensional category is depended on various factors and needs to be pursued in different fields, in order to reach to a perfect comprehend...

  Objective(s): Appendicitis remains the most common condition in the pediatric population requiring emergency abdominal operation. Management of acute simple appendicitis is well described but controversy remains as to the optimal treatment of complicated appendicitis. Common complications of acute appendicitis include: localized peritonitis and abscess formation, flegmon and general perito...

The effect of using thin plies to increase the bearing strength composite laminates has been investigated. A series 5 theoretically identical stiffness with varying proportions were manufactured a single material system. Four specimens from each plate tested for and damage was subsequently characterized an optical microscope. results show that performance in terms stiffness, at onset damage, ul...
