This study examined the effectiveness of consuming omega-3 fatty acid-enriched eggs (Omega Eggs) in increasing rotal diclary omcga-3 fatty acids. Also examined was the impact of OmegaE~gg consumption on serum lipids. Sixteen hypercholesterolemic men and women with baseline serum total cholesterol concentrations of 5. J 7-7.76 mmoliL (200-300 mg/dL) followed the National Cholesterol Education Pr...

optimal attributes are useful in interpretation of seismic data. two proposed methods are presented in this paper for finding optimal attributes. regularized discriminate analysis(rda) is based on 2 parameters ë, ? which called regularization parameter. the other method is principal component analysi s(pca).in this paper gas chimney detection is defined as the subject of study for ranking relev...

A tnan~:ular pnsm acoustic flnlte elem~nt was develnpP.d based on Craggs ( l) method. It has the advantage of representing shells of different shapes wlth change.s 111 cross sectlon along the len~:th. Two sample compressors were stud1ed for their resonant fr~quencies and mode shapes. Modifications to the shell or putr1p changed both the ,·esonant frequencies ~nd mode shapes. 1-D finlte elements...

INTRODUCTION: Autologous bone is widely accepted as the gold standard for graft material because it generally offers the most predictable and favorable clinical outcomes. However, the procurement of autograft is associated with a high incidence of complications. In addition, the amount of autograft available can sometimes be limited (e.g., in long fusions and in patients undergoing multiple rev...

This paper describes the design of tile knowledge representation medium used for representing concepts and assertions, respectively, in a subworld chosen for a knowledge-based machine u'anslation system. This design is used in the TRANSLATOR machine translation project. The kuowledge representation language, or interlingua, has two components, DIL and TIL. DIL stands for 'dictionary of interlin...

The application of multiple en dm eiub er spec tral mixture ana lysis (MJ::SA1A) to map the ph ysical com pos ition of urban morphology using Landsat Thematic Mapp er (TM) data is evaluated and tested. MESMA models mixed pixels as lin ear com binations of pure spec tra, called en dm em bers, while allowing the types and number of endmembers to V(]l}' on a per-pixe l basis. A total of 63 two-, t...

Grid computing systems are distributed systems that involve coordinate and involvement of heterogeneous resources with various characteristics where user jobs can be executed on either local or remote computer. These heterogeneous computing resources are used to run highly complex programs that require very high processing power and huge volume of input data. Recently the biggest issue in distr...
