Background: The results of studies examining the response to experimental pain during the menstrual cycle are conflicting because of differences in the definitions of the menstrual period, outcome measures and types of experimental pain stimulation. So far, there have been only a few studies correlating experimental pain with the levels of gonadal ...

Cooling of electronic devices is one of the critical challenges that the electronics industry is facing towards sustainable development. Aiming at lowering the surface temperature of the heat sink to limit thermally induced deformations, corrugated channels and nanofluids are employed to improve the thermal and hydraulic performances of a heat sink...

We propose to analyze the level of recommendation and spreading in the sharing of scientific papers on Twitter to understand the interactions of communities around papers and to develop the "Community of Attention Network" (CAN). In this paper, a pilot case study was conducted for the paper 'Pharmacological Treatment of Obesity' authored by Mancini...

Morphometric parameters are usually prerequisites for the assessment of hydrological facets of a basin. Quantitative evaluation of a drainage basin further helps in the micro-level study of its physiographic characteristics. In this study, an attempt has been made to determine the detailed aspects of morphometric characteristics of the Madhyamahesh...

Abstract:For each α∈ (0,1), Aα denotes the universal C*-algebra generated by two unitaries u and v, which satisfy the commutation relation uv=e2 π i αvu. We consider the order four automorphism σ of Aα defined by σ (u)=v, σ (v)=u−1 and describe a method for constructing projections in the fixed point algebra Aασ, using Rieffel's imprimitivity bimod...

In the k-median problem we are given sets of facilities and customers, and distances between them. For a given set F of facilities, the cost of serving a customer u is the minimum distance between u and a facility in F. The goal is to find a set F of k facilities that minimizes the sum, over all customers, of their service costs. Following the work...

This paper gives poly-logarithmic-round, distributed δ-approximation algorithms for covering problems with submodular cost and monotone covering constraints (Submodular-cost Covering). The approximation ratio δ is the maximum number of variables in any constraint. Special cases include Covering Mixed Integer Linear Programs (CMIP), and Weighted Ver...

This paper concerns a study analysing cognitive continuities and distances between argumentation supporting a conjecture and its algebraic proof, when solving open problems involving properties of numbers. The aim of this paper is to show that, unlike the geometrical case, the structural distance between argumentation and proof (from an abductive a...
