the partition coefficients (p-values) of certain new potential, stereoselective, reversible, long-acting local anesthetics have been determined in an n-octanol/ phosphate buffer system. these are derivatives of 2-phenoxyethyldialkylamine hydrochloride, and almost all of them are readily soluble in water. their aqueous solutions have shown different absorption maxima, and these have been used qu...

following our previous investigations on certain new aminoalkyl aryl ethers, which showed promising and outstanding local anaesthetic properties, the local anaesthetic activity and duration of action of a further selection of four novel derivatives of the above-mentioned series, used as hydrochloride salts, have been determined by the ill vivo rat sciatic nerve test. these are: n,n-dimethyl-2-(...

This paper investigates to what extent a recently developed new product form result for queueing networks with positive and negative customers fits into the class of product form queueing networks that satisfy a notion of partial or local balance. As such this paper investigates whether this new product form is still a consequence of an appropriate notion of local balance. To this end a new and...

It has been argued [1] that the use of constraint-based techniques and tools allows the implementation of precise, flexible, efficient and extensible scheduling systems: precise and flexible as the system can take into account any constraint expressible in the constraint language; efficient inasmuch as highly optimized constraint propagation procedures are now available; extensible as the consi...

palmprint recognition is a new biometrics system based on physiological characteristics of the palmprint, which includes rich, stable, and unique features such as lines, points, and texture. texture is one of the most important features extracted from low resolution images. in this paper, a new local descriptor, local composition derivative pattern (lcdp) is proposed to extract smartly stronger...

Nowadays wireless networks are becoming important in personal and public communication andgrowing very rapidly. Similarly, Software Dened Network (SDN) is an emerging approach to over-come challenges of traditional networks. In this paper, a new SDN-based framework is proposedto ne-grained control of 802.11 Wireless LANs. This work describes the benets of programmableAcc...

Load Frequency Control (LFC) has received considerable attention during last decades. This paper proposes a new method for designing decentralized interaction estimators for interconnected large-scale systems and utilizes it to multi-area power systems. For each local area, a local estimator is designed to estimate the interactions of this area using only the local output measurements. In fact,...
