For broad oxygen and strontium doping ranges, temperature dependences
(T-dependences) of the normal state resistivity \rho(T) of YBa_2Cu_3O_x (YBCO)
and La_(2-x)Sr_xCuO_4 (LSCO) are calculated and compared to experiments. Holes
transport was taken in the \tau-approximation, where \tau(T,\epsilon) is due to
acoustic phonons. Besides, T-dependence of the chemical potential \mu(T) and
effective carrier mass m* ~10-100 free electron masses, obtained by negative-U
centers modelling the T-dependence of the Hall coefficient, were used to
calculate \rho(T). In addition, it is demonstrated that anisotropy of the
cuprates does not affect the calculated T-variation of neither Hall coefficient
nor \rho, but only rescale their magnitudes by factors depending on
combinations of m_ab and m_c.Comment: 4th International Conference Fundamental Problems of High-Temperature
