the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between blood buffer capacity and aerobic power (vo2max) with ability to perform high intensity intermittent activities in young football players. methods: 27 male football players (age 17.66 ±0.49 years) selected as subjects. blood samples were collected before and after the yoyo intermittent test. then, after 48 hours, the bruce trea...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to identify changes in the oral environment with clinical, salivary and bacterial risk markers after placement of fixed orthodontic appliances on permanent dentition. MATERIAL AND METHODS With ethical approval, we used different techniques to analyzed clinical, salivary and bacterial risk markers in 34 patients (mean age, 16.7+5.2 years), 14 males and 20 f...

We present a detailed analysis of the loss performance in an optical buffer having access to a single outgoing channel. Such a system consisting of a number of fiber delay lines differs significantly from a conventional electronic buffer, in that only a discrete set of delays can be realized for contention resolution. This leads to an underutilization of the channel capacity, which reduces over...

This paper extends a stochastic theory for buffer fill distribution for multiple “on” and “off” sources to a mobile environment. Queue fill distribution is described by a set of differential equations assuming sources alternate asynchronously between exponentially distributed periods in “on” and “off” states. This paper includes the probabilities that mobile sources have links to a given queue....
