An integrated ranking algorithm for efficient information computing in social networks

Social networks have ensured the expanding disproportion between the face of WWW stored traditionally in search engine repositories and the actual ever changing face of Web. Exponential growth of web users and the ease with which they can upload contents on web highlights the need of content controls on material published on the web. As definition of search is changing, socially-enhanced interactive search methodologies are the need of the hour. Ranking is pivotal for efficient web search as the search performance mainly depends upon the ranking results. In this paper new integrated ranking model based on fused rank of web object based on popularity factor earned over only valid interlinks from multiple social forums is proposed. This model identifies relationships between web objects in separate social networks based on the object inheritance graph. Experimental study indicates the effectiveness of proposed Fusion based ranking algorithm in terms of better search results.Comment: 14 pages, International Journal on Web Service Computing (IJWSC), Vol.3, No.1, March 201

Angular momentum sum rule for spin one hadronic systems

We derive a sum rule for the total quark angular momentum of a spin-one hadronic system within a gauge invariant decomposition of the hadron's spin. We show that the total angular momentum can be measured through deeply virtual Compton scattering experiments using transversely polarized deuteron targets.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, changes in text, figures changed, references change

Anaesthetic management of appendectomy in a patient with cerebral arteriovenous malformation

Background: The aim of anaesthetic management for appendectomy in a patient with cerebral arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is to maintain a stable cardiovascular system. As this condition is rare, there are no definitive guidelines regarding the anaesthetic management of such patients. Case report: We report a case of appendectomy in a patient with cerebral AVM. The patient was diagnosed with cerebral AVM four years prior to presentation with acute appendicitis and was advised surgical intervention, which he refused. Management of this patient presenting with acute appendicitis is discussed. Conclusion: General anaesthesia may be used successfully for appendectomy in a patient with cerebral AVM if haemodynamic fluctuations at times of stress are minimised.Keywords: appendectomy; arteriovenous malformation; general anaesthesi

A multi-regression analysis of airline indirect operating costs

June 1968PB 183 012N69-33854Includes bibliographical references (p. 53-54)A multiple regression analysis of domestic and local airline indirect costs was carried out to formulate cost estimating equations for airline indirect costs. Data from CAB and FAA sources covering the years 1962-66 was used, and the costs were broken down into the classification of the uniform system of accounts Form 41, used by the airlines in reporting to the CAB. Thus regression equations were found for 1) annual system expenses in the categories such as Passenger Servicing, Traffic Servicing, Promotion and Sales, General and Administrative, etc. as well as an overall indirect operating cost; and 2) annual station expenses where the Aircraft and Traffic Servicing expenses for individual stations are examined. A stepwise regression technique is used to select the best combinations of independent variables for the equations. The independent variables were data such as revenue passenger miles, passengers enplaned, revenue aircraft miles, total revenue aircraft departures, etc. The results generally showed that a high degree of correlation could be found between the costs and some combination of these variables.Office of High Speed Ground Transport, Dept. of Commerc
