In this article, we have presented a method for finding the approximate center of a linear programming polytope. This method provides a point near the center of a polytope in few simple and easy steps. Geometrical interpretation and some numerical examples have also been presented to demonstrate the proposed approach and comparison of quality of the center obtained by using the new method with existing methods of finding exact and approximate centers. At the end, we also presented computational results on the randomly generated polytopes to compare the quality of the center obtained by using the new method.

Software birthmark is a unique quality of software to detect software theft. Comparing birthmarks of software can tell us whether a program or software is a copy of another. Software theft and piracy are rapidly increasing problems of copying, stealing, and misusing the software without proper permission, as mentioned in the desired license agreement. The estimation of birthmark can play a key role in understanding the effectiveness of a birthmark. In this paper, a new technique is presented to evaluate and estimate software birthmark based on the two most sought-after properties of birthmarks, that is, credibility and resilience. For this purpose, the concept of soft computing such as probabilistic and fuzzy computing has been taken into account and fuzzy logic is used to estimate properties of birthmark. The proposed fuzzy rule based technique is validated through a case study and the results show that the technique is successful in assessing the specified properties of the birthmark, its resilience and credibility. This, in turn, shows how much effort will be required to detect the originality of the software based on its birthmark.

A new technique for isolation of single cardiac cells from adult rat ventricles is described. The mechanical method is modified from the method of Jacobson (Cell Struct. Funct. 2: 1-9, 1977) by employing an enzyme-free dispersion medium containing Sr2+ or Ba2+ to replace Ca2+. This method produces a high yield of isolated rod-shaped adult mammalian cardiomyocytes that do not contract spontaneously, have a normal resting potential, and are Ca2+ tolerant. This method represents a promising technique for isolation of single, viable, intact, adult myocytes.

The article is devoted to a new technique in neurosurgery – spinal cord neurostimulation. It has also focused on the patophysiology of pain and spastic syndromes. Surgical treatment of pain, spasti-city and stages of neurostimulation are also considered.

In this research, we have proposed a new technique to solve two-dimensional (2D) viscous fluid flow among slowly expanding or contracting walls. The new technique depends on combining the algorithms of Yang transform and the homotopy perturbation methods. The results, obtained from the first iteration and by using the new method, show the accuracy and efficiency of this method compared to the other methods, used to find the analytical approximate solution for the problem caused by the 2D viscous fluid flow. Moreover, the graphs of the new solutions show the validity, usefulness and necessity of the new method.

Twenty years ago the QUARTERLY published an article by Dr. Gallup on “A Scientific Method for Determining Reader-Interest.” He now describes a new technique which he predicts will change the character of advertising as much in the next 20 years as the readership method has changed it in the last 20.

A new technique is described for stabilizing complex vertical fractures of the maxilla. Advantageous use of the comminuted fracture pattern of the maxillary buttresses allows the maxilla to be divided into two parts at the Le Fort I level. with intermaxillary fixation applied, stabilization is achieved by applying miniplate fixation to the nasal side of the hard palate. The maxilla is reduced to the previously stabilized anterior midfacial buttresses with plates and screws. Comminuted segments of defects in the anterior buttresses are replaced with contoured calvarial grafts. This method has the advantage of maintaining transverse palatal width in a rigid fashion without the need for further osteotomies. It has satisfactorily restored preinjury occlusal relationships in six patients, without the need for dental splints. In no instance has hardware extrusion occurred after fixation.

In Korea, about 48% of all the residents live in apartment houses and about 58% in multi-family houses share the walls and floors with their adjacent households, exposing them directly to noises. Since residents show a stronger demand for the quality of life, the number of civil complaints and disputes on inter-floor noises is constantly increasing every year, from 114 cases in 2005 to 362 cases in 2011, which has been one of the most serious social issues so far. To develop a new technique for the reduction of floor impact sounds, in this study we have investigated how to manufacture foamed concrete having comparatively-heavyweight and high-stiffness, and evaluated the properties of foamed concrete made of different kinds of polymer-based foaming admixture and their concentrations.
