Software fault tolerance is often necessary, but can itself be dangerously error-prone because of the additional effort that must be involved in the programming process. The additional redundancy may increase size and complexity and thus adversely affect software reliability. Object-oriented programming provides an appropriate framework for controlling complexity and enforcing reliability. Howe...

objective: in order to study genetic variation and effect of drought stress on grain yield and some morphological traits in chickpea, an experiment was conducted on 64 genotypes during 2013-2014 cropping season at deputy of kermanshah sararood dry land agricultural research institute, located on the western part of iran. methods: the experimental design was a randomized lattice design with tow ...

Axiomatic Design (AD) is a methodology that utilizes customer needs as input and produces functional requirements, design parameters, and process variables through the use of matrix methods. AD is based on two design axioms; the independence and the information axiom. These two design axioms and the AD approach in general seem to be well-suited for the design and analysis of large-scale compute...

Micro6s are the sequel to the Micro5 series, newly projected rover prototypes. Micro6 is equipped with a suspension mechanism so called HEXUS, a six wheeled mobility system with actively controllable suspension. Thanks to the new link mechanism, HEXUS has not only good performance as well as PEGASUS, but also has great stability and fault tolerant feature. The paper describes the concept and sy...

in order to evaluate drought tolerance of some aegilops triuncialis ecotypes a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design was conducted under non-stress and drought stress (irrigation until 50% of heading) condition in the greenhouse of mohaghegh ardabili university in 2012. drought tolerance and susceptibility indices for grain yield were calculated and principal component an...

drought stress is one of the most important dangers for increasing the yield and good production of crops in iran and the world. to evaluate the genetic diversity of rapeseed genotypes, identifying the drought resistance indices and drought tolerant genotypes, 16 genotypes were tested in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications and two different water regimes (irrigated...

The tolerance design directly in#uences the functionality of products and related production costs. Tolerance synthesis is a procedure that distributes assembly tolerances between components or distributes "nal part design tolerances between related tolerances. In order to make a reliable trade-o! between design tolerances and costs, it is necessary to obtain the cost}tolerance relationships. V...
