Large Traumatic Pneumatocele in a 2-Year-Old Child by N. K. Cheung, A. James, R. Kumar

“…This case study reports one of the largest traumatic pneumatoceles reported to date in the paediatric population, which resulted in aggressive surgical intervention for both diagnostic and treatment reasons. This case adds further evidence to the current literature that significantly large traumatic pneumatoceles with failure of initial conservative management warrant surgical exploration and management to optimise recovery and prevent complications.…”

Statistical and Dynamical Decoupling of the IGM from Dark Matter by Li-Zhi Fang, Weishan Zhu

“…Although the gravitational field in the universe is dominated by dark matter, cosmological observations show that the statistical properties of cosmic baryonic matter are significantly and systematically decoupled from that of the underlying dark matter. The dynamical reason of the decoupling is the difference of the nonlinear evolution of baryon fluid from that of collisionless dark matter. …”

Algorithm for the cloud service workflow scheduling with setup time and deadline constraints by Hong SHEN, Xiao-ping LI

“…Cost minimization with deadline constraints and setup time is a new resource allocation optimization problem in cloud computing.An integer programming model is constructed for this NP-hard problem.A novel probability model and updating mechanism is suggested for sampling the solution space.A heuristic method is investigated for generating good initial population.A hybrid estimation of distribution algorithm (HEDA) is proposed for the considered problem.The global best solution is adopted to balance the diversification and intensification of HEDA.Experimental results show that the proposed method is effective to optimize the workflow running cost within reasonable CPU time.…”
