future increase of mobile communication subscribers will require a great capacity expansion of the cellular systems. in order to accommodate the increasing number of subscribers, the cell size will have to be much smaller than current size. therefore, it is predictable that the location updating and paging procedures will produce a major part of signaling traffic in these networks. this pape...

expansin proteins are a type of cell-wall loosening proteins which able to cell wall expansion in ph-dependent manure without hydrolyze of main cell wall structures. the arabidopsis expa1 exhibit guard cell specific expression and trigger the stomatal movements. the objectives of this study were to transfer the atexpa1 gene into tobacco plants and evaluate their phonotypic effects on transforme...

  This paper deals with the cellular manufacturing system (CMS) that is based on group technology concepts. CMS is defined as identifying the similar parts that are processed on the same machines and then grouping them as a cell. The most proposed models for solving CMS are focused on cell formation problem while machine layout is considered in few papers. This paper addresses a mathematical mo...

cellular manufacturing system is one of the most important applications of group technology. design of this system involves many structural and operational issues, in which the cell formation and production planning are two important steps. in this paper, a new mathematical model is proposed for integration of cell formation and production planning problems with the aim of minimizing the overal...
