In Brief OBJECTIVE: Objective Structured Assessments of Technical Skills have been developed to measure the skill surgical trainees. Our aim was develop an specifically for trainees learning robotic surgery. METHODS: This is a multiinstitutional study conducted in eight academic training programs. We created assessment form evaluate through five inanimate exercises. Gynecology, general surgery, and urology residents, Fellows, faculty completed exercises on standard model. Study sessions were...
The purpose of our study was to compare clinical data regarding patients with pruritic lichen sclerosus (LS) at moderate or severe stages using 2 different therapies a 5-year follow-up.The approved by the institutional review board and presented as retrospective biopsy diagnosis LS who underwent therapy university private practice from 2002 2005. We compared results weekly topical application high-potency steroid (HPS) combined HPS monthly anesthetic/steroid subdermal injection (ASI)....
Live virtual machine migration allows resources from one physical server to be moved another with little or no interruption in the processes of guest operating system. The process involved performing a live includes copying memory state and cpu register hyper visor on another. In this paper, is evaluated terms performance while being migrated, cloud architecture migrating machine, power costs migration. experiments will give insight how responds handles migrations, machines perform they are phase.
Cloud Computing is a rapidly growing branch of distributed computing. There have been many proposed open source cloud architectures. The purpose this paper to look at three the most popular architectures: Eucalyptus, OpenStack, and OpenNebula. These architectures were compared by their ease installation performance. benchmarks performed calculated CPU performance, Network I/O performance was measured Python program that Pi given digit returned time taken complete task. Our benchmark made use...
Cloud computing is a technology of inter-connected servers and resources that use virtualization to utilize the resources, flexibility, scalability. accessible through network. This accessibility utilization have its own benefit drawbacks. Utilization scalability make this more economic affordable for small businesses. Flexibility drastically reduces risk starting Accessibility allows cloud customers not be restricted in specific location until they could access network, most cases internet....
The aim of this study was to identify vaginal Lactobacillus spp. and quantify inflammatory cytokines in primigravida vs. multigravida women pregnant non-pregnant women.Vaginal swabs were obtained from four groups patients. A real-time PCR carried out the Multiplex immunoassays performed a total 27 using Bio-Plex MAGPIX multiplex reader MesoQuick Plex SQ 120 (Meso Scale Diagnostics LLC, Rockville, MD, USA). Inferential statistics hypothesis tests applied detect differences cytokine...
This paper presents the problems of coexisting IEEE 802.11 protocols in 2.4 GHz ISM band. The focus is on introducing 802.11n products into a heavily used 802.11g area. We show that newer wireless n protocol has adverse effects transmission rate older, more commonly protocols. adoption areas with high data rates might incur negative impact other low-power band communication can be due to fact use multiple channels concurrently. Technologies such as sensor networks buildings, Bluetooth...
lamproite magmas and thereby obtaining a direct indication of the potential for resorption diamonds. In this contribution, we present results detailed chemical analysis perovskite in kimberlite samples from several localities southern Africa, Russia Australia. Oxygen fugacity is estimated using oxygen barometer compared to estimates based on diamond population studies. The work are used evaluate general applicability kimberlites lamproites worldwide further constrain relationships between...
INTRODUCTION: Genetic Carrier Screening (GCS) is an important part of gynecological practice and preconception planning. We evaluated the awareness attitudes among women regarding GCS factors that may influence decision-making in a family planning context. METHODS: A 32 question survey academic university was given to 521 who were either currently pregnant (n=108); undergoing gynecologic care considering future fertility (n=308) infertility patients (n=105). Data are reported descriptively....
High performance and parallel computing are traditionally implemented on very large dedicated compute clusters. However, as many organizations begin to adopt service-oriented cloud-based infrastructures, we can expect see the development of in cloud. The goal a cluster is divide job into several small jobs, execute jobs nodes, then combine results some coherent manner. biggest hurdle moving this type service infrastructure that will undoubtedly be affected by factors, particularly those...
Distributed computing allows users to better utilize and share resources. Having this advantage currently requires a large amount of energy. In paper we propose solution for reducing power consumption in distributed computing, called Limited Reactive Power Management (LRPM). By monitoring the current usage nodes, our will down unnecessary nodes conserve This savings with minimal impact on performance. The overall goal is obtain lower energy requirement by various systems without sacrificing
In this paper, virtual machine performance is determined while stationary and during a live migration process. Benchmarks are used to determine network, CPU, disk I/O of the machines migrating. To further examine performance, three types persistent storage techniques used: Solid-State Drive (SSD), Hard Disk (HDD), Diskless (Network Boot). Results given that show degraded diskless cloud cluster, due network latency fetch requests located on networked PXE server. The cluster compared...
