adjusted milk yield for 305 days and two milking times along with actual first lactation records of 187138 holstein cows were used to find out the effect of record adjustment on variance components estimation and on genetic evaluation. records had been gathered by the animal breeding center of iran during years 1991 to 2006. the pedigree file included 288032 animals. a single animal model with ...

Based on IFRS laws, British companies have started providing their reporting systems according to International Standards Requirements regarding disclosing their financial derivatives since January 2005. In 2013, Iran revised its Accounting Standard No. 15 to include the derivative instruments. The present study aims at investigating the effect of this revision on financial derivatives and inst...

While a great portion of the scheduling literature focuses on time-based criteria, the most important goal of management is maximizing the profitability of the firm. In this paper, the net preset value criterion is studied taking account of linear time-dependent cash flows in single machine and flow shop scheduling problems. First, a heuristic method is presented for the single machine scheduli...

Background:Expression of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and its receptors in embryo and endometrium implicates the involvement of this glycoprotein on implantation process. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of routine use of subcutaneous administration of G-CSF on pregnancy outcomes in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) patients. <strong...

due to the importance of the import management, this study applies generalized ardl approach to estimate midas regression for wheat import value and to compare the accuracy of forecasts with those competed by the regression with adjusted data model. mixed frequency sampling models aim to extract information with high frequency indicators so that independent variables with lower frequencies are ...

in recent years, sexed semen has been commercially available. due to its lower fertility and higher price compared to conventional semen, economic evaluation should be undertaken before recommending the technology to dairy producers in each country. the objectives of the present study were to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the sexed semen usage at farm level in economic conditions...

Let K denote a field and let V denote a vector space over K with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of linear transformations A : V → V and A∗ : V → V that satisfy the following conditions: (i) each of A,A∗ is diagonalizable; (ii) there exists an ordering {Vi} d i=0 of the eigenspaces of A such that A ∗Vi ⊆ Vi−1+Vi+Vi+1 for 0 ≤ i ≤ d, where V−1 = 0 and Vd+1 = 0; (iii) there exists an...

and Applied Analysis 3 Remark 5. Assumption (13) holds if the system has a unique solution. For brevity, we rewrite system (2)∼(5) in the vector form by introducing W(x, t) = (u(x, t), n(x, t)) and Y(x, t) = (a(x, t), b(x, t)). We denote by E 0 = H 2 ⋂H 1 0 (Ω) × H 1 0 (Ω) the space of vector functionsW(x, t) = (u(x, t), n(x, t)) with norm E0 = {‖u‖ 2 H 2 + ‖n‖ 2 H 1} 1/2 . (14) Similarly, we d...
