Test generation is a highly complex and time-consuming task. In this work, we present a distributed method for combinational test generation. The method is based on a hybrid approach that combines both deterministic and ...
In an attempt to meet the stringent time constraints of real time flows, several scheduling algorithms have been proposed in the literature. Among such algorithms, the so-called EDF algorithm is widely known for its optimal ...
A hybrid genetic algorithm for the task allocation problem (HGATA) in multicomputers is presented. It minimizes the possibility of premature convergence and finds good solutions in a reasonable time. HGATA includes elitist ...
This paper aims at providing a better understanding of the workings of political rhetoric in the discourse of Hizbollah by examining relatively underexplored socio-cognitive dimensions in production and reception of political ...
Many exact search algorithms for NP-hard graph problems adopt the old Davis-Putman branch-and-reduce paradigm. The performance of these algorithms often suffers from the increasing number of graph modifications, such as ...

Software quality is defined as the degree to which a software
component or system meets specified requirements and specifications.
Objectively quantifying software quality is important as it reduces cost,
effort and ...
Software quality is defined as the degree to which a software component or system meets specified requirements and specifications. Assessing software quality in the early stages of design and development is crucial as it ...

Author.Metals enter water bodies geological weathering, soil erosion, industrial and domestic waste discharges, as well as atmospheric deposition. The metal content in sediments is a reflection of the nature of their ...
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition improves function and extends survival in rodent models of a host of neurological conditions, including stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Our understanding, however, of the ...
We read with great interest the recent paper by Karimi et al 1 describing the safety and efficacy of hydroxyurea (HU) in reducing complications of extramedullary hemopoiesis as well as increasing Hb levels in Iranian ...

Countries suffering from water shortage problems use the intermittent mode of supply
where water is pumped for few hours once or twice a week, which forces householder to
store water in tanks located on rooftops or in ...

We herein report a unique case of a lateral pontine demyelinating lesion presenting with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss and paradoxical ipsilateral hyperacusis. The association of unilateral hearing loss and ipsilateral ...
Aims/hypothesis
Hyperaminoacidaemia attenuates glucose disposal during hyperinsulinaemic clamps in healthy lean individuals, an effect thought to be mediated by negative feedback on insulin signalling, downstream of the ...
HIV infection has reached endemic proportions in many African countries. In addition, HIV infection is a significant cause of renal dysfunction in the United States. HIV patients are at higher risk of developing hypertension ...

In conscious mammals, hypoxia or hypercapnia stimulates breathing while theoretically exerting opposite effects on central respiratory chemoreceptors (CRCs). We tested this theory by examining how hypoxia and hypercapnia ...
Neurologic conditions including stroke, Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, and Huntington disease are leading causes of death and long-term disability in the United States, and efforts to develop novel therapeutics for ...
