Due to safety critical applications of the embedded systems, reliability is one of the most important properties of these systems. Wireless networks also have error prone data transmission channels and limited power consumption. Therefore reliability and power conservation are two vital characteristics of the wireless network especially in embedded applications. Since achieving to a desirable level of data reliability is power consuming, we must consider a trade-off between power consumption and data reliability. In wireless networks power consumption can be categorized into: power consumption in wireless devices and power consumption in data transmission. For decrement of wireless devices... 

In recent years, there has been a trend toward outsourcing data to the cloud provider. These companies must tackle the data security challenges. Generally these parties are assumed to be honest but curious. In past years, the research communities have been investigating different solution to ensure confidentiality.
In addition to data confidentiality access and pattern confidentiality is a high-priority issue in some cases so. potential adversary should be unable to drive information from the observed access pattern to the outsourced data. Despite the fact that there are more investigation in the field of data confidentiality, concern over data security are the rise in outsourcing data,... 

Multimorbidity in an individual is a typical and increasing condition and a major challenge in healthcare. The goal of treatment recommendation for such patients is to decide the most effective combination of treatments. Doctors typically prescribe medication based on their intuition and experience. However, due to knowledge gaps or unintended biases, often times these clinical decisions can be sub-optimal. Broad adoption and usage of electronic health records (EHRs) in the last decade has opened up a great opportunity to leverage healthcare data to improve clinical decisions.In this approach we use EHR and drug-drug interaction (DDI) information to prescribe medications. We use multiple... 

Predictive Maintenance (PdM) plays a pivotal role in ensuring the continuous operation and reducing the operational costs of computer servers. The success of this strategy is directly contingent upon the integrity and accuracy of hardware sensor data. The emergence of faults within these sensors provides erroneous information, thereby undermining the integrity of PdM systems. This can lead to costly, unnecessary maintenance decisions or, conversely, the oversight of impending failures. This research introduces a novel, purely software-based solution for concurrent fault detection in server sensors. By intelligently leveraging the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) as a watchdog processor,... 

In this study, the interaction of tunneling of line 2 of Mashhad metro and existing metro station (Shariati station) in line 1 has been investigated. To produce the stress and displacement which is caused by excavation of station, the process of station excavation has been modeled by method of cut and cover.This method is the common method for station construction at Shallow depth and is used in several cases in line 1 of Mashhad metro. The piled-raft system is used in foundation of central part of the station to reduce the settlements and the effects of interactions between the station and new tunnel. The new tunnel under the station is surrounded by two rows of lateral piles with distance... 

Ontology alignment is a process for selection of a good mapping between entities of two (or more) ontologies. It can be viewed as a two phase process of: 1) Find the similarity of each pair of entities from two ontologies, and 2) Extraction of an optimal or near optimal mapping. Many researches had been down in the first phase, but researches in the second phase are little. Mapping extraction approaches applied in ontology alignment use similarity matrix to extract mapping, and ontologies have not any role in mapping extraction phase. One of the most important components in ontology is its structure which can help us in alignment extraction.
In this thesis, an approach was proposed that... 

We discuss, in the setting of UMD Banach spaces E, existence, uniqueness and the continuous dependence on the data A, F, G and of mild solutions of semilinear stochastic evolution equations with multiplicative noise of the form dX(t) = [AX(t) + F(t;X(t))]dt + G(t;X(t))dWH(t); t 2 [0; T]; X(0) = ; Where A generates an analytic C0-semigroup on a UMD Banach space E and WH is a cylindrical Brownian motion with values in a Hilbert space H. We can see that if the mappings F : [0; T] E ! E and G : [0; T] E ! L(H;E) satisfy suitable Lipschitz conditions and is F0-measurable and bounded, then this problem has a unique mild solution.And We arw going to review continuous dependence of the solutions... 

According to official statistics, family businesses form the majority of businesses around the world. When we talk about businesses, we are more likely to say that those firms face issues related to family businesses.One of the trending topics that has recently been considered by researchers and a lot of research has been done in this regard, is specific issues related to marketing and branding of family businesses.In this study, we tried to examine the family business brand in terms of reputation. Reputation is the perception in the minds of brand stakeholders about the brand and the organization. So we tried to take as fair and accurate a sample as possible, to seek the opinions of... 

Customer loyalty plays one of the most vital roles in business profitability. This concept gives special prominence to attaining new customers, which is by far less costly than attracting new ones. Therefore, investigating the impact of factors affecting customer retention is of precise significance. In the respect, corporate social responsibility, as an imperative factor impacting customer loyalty, gained more attention by various companies in the last decades.Over the past few months, the world has encountered the hazard of the Coronavirus pandemic. Most aspects of daily life in different parts of the globe have been affected by this disease. Companies are no exception. The coronavirus has... 

Hydroxyurea is an anticancer drug that is commonly used to treat chronic myeloid leukemia (white blood cell cancer in bone marrow), polycythemia vera (red blood cell cancer), sickle cell anemia, solid tumors, and in particular leukemia. In this research, in addition to analyzing all available methods for synthesis of hydroxyurea, the most economical method for synthesis of hydroxyurea which is Hantzsch method was chosen; then we synthesized hydroxyurea crystals using a precipitation or crystallization process. To do so, two hydroxylamine hydrochloride and potassium cyanate reactants have been used in the semi batch reactor. Since the reaction efficiency and purity of the synthesized...
