Reverse addressing is an interesting realization of kinship terms in interactive, face to face communication. This descriptive study was proposed to examine the use of family address pronouns in Iran as a function of the classical sociological parameters of age, sex, and social distance. It investigated various aspects of reverse addressing as a vernacular phenomenon. Data were reported from th...

In cloud computing environments, multiple tenants are often co-located on the same multi-processor system. Thus, preventing information leakage between tenants is crucial. While the hypervisor enforces software isolation, shared hardware, such as the CPU cache or memory bus, can leak sensitive information. For security reasons, shared memory between tenants is typically disabled. Furthermore, t...

Figure A2. QRT-PCR analysis of OR expression for OR families 4, 5, 7, and 9. There was no statistical difference of OR expression between PEA (red bars) and control fish (blue bars) for any of the families tested. Similar results were observed for two different stocks (#1111 (dark shades) and #1106 (light shades)) of imprinted fish. All OR expression data was normalized to expression of β-actin .

Severe glenoid wear is technically problematic, has a higher complication rate, and inferior results in the setting of shoulder arthroplasty. This paper introduces four basic strategies for treating glenoid erosion with a reverse shoulder arthroplasty which include; 1. eccentric reaming, 2. bone grafting of glenoid, 3. reaming and bone grafting, and 4. using augmented baseplates. The benefits a...

Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) was designed for the treatment of elderly patients with cuff tear arthropathy. Because of its success, the indications for RSA have expanded beyond cuff tear arthropathy to include acute fractures, fracture sequelae, massive rotator cuff tears, inflammatory arthritis, and revision shoulder arthroplasty. Consequently, the number of RSAs performed has increased...

We consider the problem faced by a company that must outsource reverse logistics (RL) activities to third-party providers. Addressing RL outsourcing problems has become increasingly relevant issue in the management science and decision making literatures. The correct evaluation and ranking of the decision criteria/priorities determining the selection of the best third-party RL providers (3PRLPs...

This paper presents a novel technique for passive matrix addressing of electrophoretic displays. The addressing scheme is successfully applied in a working demonstrator with 5x7 pixels. To our knowledge, this is the first time a working electrophoretic display with passive matrix addressing is presented.

closed-loop supply chain network design is a critical issue due to its impact on both economic and environmental performances of the supply chain. in this paper, we address the problem of designing a multi-echelon, multi-product and capacitated closed-loop supply chain network. first, a mixed-integer linear programming formulation is developed to maximize the total profit. the main contribution...
