In this paper, we analyze the effect of mobility management method to the data rate of moving users when pico-cell which uses the same frequency bandwidth as that of macro-cell is overlaid over macro-cell. From this analysis, we show that the data rate which is available to the moving user depends on the method of mobility management and relative location of the overlaid pico-cell over macro-cell in the network.

This paper considers corrosion wastage of two ship hull structure members as a part of investigated fuel oil tanks of 25 aging bulk carriers. Taking into account that many factors which influence corrosion wastage of ship hull structures are of uncertain nature, the related corrosion rate ($c_1$) is considered here as a real-valued continuous distribution, assuming that the corrosion wastage starts after 5, 6 or 7 years. In all considered cases, by using available data and applying three basic statistical tests, it is established that between two-parameter continuous distributions, normal, Weibull and logistic distributions are best fitted distributions for the mentioned corrosion rate ($c_1$). Note that the presented statistical, numerical and graphical results concerning two mentioned ship hull structure members allow to compare and discuss the corresponding probabilistic estimates for the corrosion rate ($c_1$).

DQDB(Distributed Queue Dual Bus) protocol, the IEEE 802.6 standard protocol for metropolitan area networks, does not fully take advantage of the capabilities of dual bus architecture. Although fairness in bandwidth distribution among nodes is improved when using so called the bandwidth balancing mechanism, the protocol requires a considerable amount of time to adjust to changes in the network load. Additionally, the bandwidth balancing mechanism leaves a portion of the available bandwidth unused. In a high-speed backbone network, each node may act as a bridge/ router which connects several LANs as well as hosts. However, Because the existence of high speed LANs becomes commonplace, the congestionmay occur on a node because of the limitation on access rate to the backbone network and on available buffer spaces. to release the congestion, it is desirable to install some congestion control algorithm in the node. In this paper, we propose an efficient congestion control mechanism and fair and waster-free MAC protocol for dual bus network. In this protocol, all the buffers in the network can be shared in such a way that the transmission rate of each node can be set proportional to its load. In other words, a heavily loaded node obtains a larger bandwidth to send the sements so tht the congestion can be avoided while the uncongested nodes slow down their transmission rate and store the incoming segments into thier buffers. this implies that the buffers on the network can be shared dynamically. Simulation results show that the proposed probotol significantly reduces the segment queueing delay of a heavily loaded node and segment loss rate when compared with original DQDB. And it enables an attractive high throughput in the backbone network. Because in the proposed protocol, each node does not send a requet by the segment but send a request one time in the meaning of having segments, the frequency of sending requests is very low in the proposed protocol. so the proposed protocol signigificantly reduces the segment queuing dely. and In the proposed protocol, each node uses bandwidth in proportion to its load. so In case of limitation of available buffer spaces, the proposed protocol reduces segment loss rate of a heavily loaded node. Bandwidth balancing DQDB requires the wastage of bandwidth to be fair bandwidth allocation. But the proposed DQDB MAC protocol enables fair bandwidth without wasting bandwidth by using bandwidth one after another among active nodes.

This study was carried out to verify the accuracy of fitness tracking devices in monitoring heart rate and energy consumption and to contribute to the development of a forest exercise program that can recommend the intensity and amount of forest exercises based on personal health-related data and provide monitoring and feedback on forest exercises. Among several commercially available wearable devices, Fitbit was selected for the research, as it provides Open API and data collected by Fitbit can be utilized by third parties to develop programs. Fitbit provides users with various information collected during forest exercises including exercise time and distance, heart rate, energy consumption, as well as the altitude and slope of forests collected by GPS. However, in order to verify the usability of the heart rate and energy consumption data collected by Fitbit in forest, the accuracy of heart rate and energy consumption were verified by comparing the data collected by Fitbit and reference. In this study, 13 middle-aged women were participated, and it was found that the heart rate measured by Fitbit showed a very low error rate and high correlation with that measured by the reference. The energy consumption measured by Fitbit was not significantly different from that measured in the reference, but the error rate was slightly higher. However, there was high correlation between the results measured by Fibit and the reference, therefore, it can be concluded that Fitbit can be utilized in developing actual forest exercise programs.

To get the basic information about ginseng seedling production, yields of ginseng seedling and soil physico-chemical components in 32 fields of Yang-Jik and 19 fields of Ban-Yang-Jik nursery were investigated. Germination rate is $78.5{\pm}3.0%$, $77.8{\pm}2.8%$ in Yang-Jik and Ban-Yang-Jik. Rate of number of mature seedlings to number of seeds planted is $62{\pm}13.5%$, $53{\pm}12.6%$ in Yang-Jik and Ban-Yang-Jik. Rate of number of available seedlings to number of seeds planted (Rate of available seedling) is $42{\pm}12.5%$, $26{\pm}12.1%$ in Yang-Jik and Ban-Yang-Jik. The number of available seedlings per Kan (Kan means $180{\times}90cm$ area) is $627{\pm}187$, $368{\pm}182$ in Yang-Jik and Ban-Yang-Jik. Rate of number of unusable seedlings to number of mature seedlings is 34%, 51% in Yang-Jik and Ban-Yang-Jik. It showed the negative correlation between amount of coarse sand and stem height, and central leaf length, on the other hand, possitive correlation between amount of extremely fine sand, and stem height, and central leaf length respectively. Rate of available seedling was positively correlated with amount of medium, fine and extremely fine sand, whereas negatively correlated with amount of coarse sand in Yang-Jik. Root weight per seedling was positively correlated with amount of medium, fine and extremely fine sand. Contents of organic matter, available phosphate and potassium in Ban-Yang-Jik were higher than those of Yang-Jik, but content of lime was higher in Yang-Jik compared to that of Ban-Yang-Jik. Possitive correlations were showed between leaf area per seedling and content of organic matter, and between stem height and content of lime in Yang-Jik. Root weight per seedling was positively correlated with content of organic matter and magnesium in Ban-Yang-Jik, but there is no correlation between any of soil chemical components and root weight in Yang-Jik.

Present experiment in vivo shows that some conversions of active groups in chloramphenicol residue of ester, that is hydrolytic cleavage of dichloracetamide and glucuronide formation, seem to take place prior to hydrolysis. This result suggest that the enzymatic hydrolysis rate in vitro, is not available as an index for the evaluation of the chlorampherical ester potency.

Many researchers are now working in the Low-Rate WPAN environment. Low-Rate WPAN has as its goal the enhancing computer use by making many sensors available throughout the physical environment, but making them effectively invisible to the user. Low-Rate WPAN environment consists of wireless sensor devices that may move often. Movement of hosts results in a change in routes and the need of some mechanism for determining new routes. This paper suggests an approach to utilize location information to improve performance of a routing mechanism for Low-Rate WPAN Environment. Accordingly, we proved that the proposed mechanism results in a significant reduction in a number of routing messages when comparing with existing mechanisms.

Background: As a result of significant progress made in treatment of many types of cancers during the last few decades, there have been an increased number of patients who do not experience mortality. We refer to these observations as cure or immune and models for survival data which include cure fraction are known as cure rate models or long-term survival models. Materials and Methods: In this study we used the data collected from 438 female patients with breast cancer registered in the Cancer Research Center in Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. The patients had been diagnosed from 1992 to 2012 and were followed up until October 2014. We had to exclude some because of incomplete information. Phone calls were made to confirm whether the patients were still alive or not. Deaths due to breast cancer were regarded as failure. To identify clinical, pathological, and biological characteristics of patients that might have had an effect on survival of the patients we used a non-mixture cure rate model; in addition, a Weibull distribution was proposed for the survival time. Analyses were performed using STATA version 14. The significance level was set at $P{\leq}0.05$. Results: A total of 75 patients (17.1%) died due to breast cancer during the study, up to the last follow-up. Numbers of metastatic lymph nodes and histologic grade were significant factors. The cure fraction was estimated to be 58%. Conclusions: When a cure fraction is not available, the analysis will be changed to standard approaches of survival analysis; however when the data indicate that the cure fraction is available, we suggest analysis of survival data via cure models.
