Estimating and minimizing the maximum power dissipation during testing is an important task in VLSI circuit realization since the power value affects the reliability of the circuits. Therefore during testing a methodology should be adopted to minimize power consumption. Test patterns generated with –D 1 option of ATALANTA contains don’t care bits (x bits). By suitable filling of don’t cares can...

Objective: To describe filling patterns and associated transcriptional aspects in phlebotomy tubes received at PNS Rahat laboratory. Material and Methods: This descriptive study was carried out from November 2006 to August 2007 at Department of Pathology, PNS Rahat, Karachi. Phlebotomy related data was collected from various blood collection tubes and associated request/authorization forms from...

introduction: auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering are two major components of the auditory temporal processing abilities that contribute to speech perception and language development. auditory temporal resolution and auditory temporal ordering can be evaluated by gap-in-noise (gin) and pitch-pattern-sequence (pps) tests, respectively. in this survey, the effect of biling...

Many pattern discovery methods provide fast tools for finding the frequently occurring patterns in large data sets. Such pattern collections can also be used to approximate the underlying joint distribution, and they summarize the data set well. However, a large set of patterns is unintuitive and not necessarily easy to use. In this paper we consider the problem of ordering a collection of patt...

OBJECTIVES To characterise the test ordering pattern in Northern Portugal and to investigate the influence of context-related factors, analysing the test ordered at the level of geographical groups of family physicians and at the level of different healthcare organisations. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Northern Primary Health Care, Portugal. PARTICIPANTS Records about diagnostic ...
