Occurrences of certain defects are inevitable despite meticulous planning, proper process control, and good documentation during software development. Such defects lead to quality degradation which can be the underlying reason for failure. Conscious efforts are required to control and minimize software engineering defects, but this costs money, time and resources. Predicting defective software module facilitates maintenance and corrective measures. In Software Defect Prediction (SDP), predictive model estimation is based on code attributes to assess software modules containing errors likelihood. This study proposes improved activation function based on cubic spline for Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Networks (MLPNN) to classify SDP. The proposed method is evaluated using KC1 dataset.

The authors have treated 29 cases of infected pseudarthrosis of tibia: 12 complications of open fractures of legs with loss bone stabilized firstly by external fixator; 09 closed fractures treated traditionally by jbira seen in pseudarthrosis infected, 05 cases of septic nonunion arising after plate osteosynthesis and 03 cases following centromedullary nailing. In all cases, two stage reconstruction: Initial surgery consisted of soft tissue and bone debridement, external fixation completed by Dressing percutaneous a day by antiseptic and intravenously antibiotic. After any remaining infection, at last 6 to 8 weeks, the reconstruction of the soft tissue with a free microsurgical muscle flap and skin graft. The second stage surgery consisted to replace external fixator by intramedullary nailing and the osseous reconstruction was cancellous or corticocancellous grafting. The final result was obtained after an average of 24 months and was excellent in 15 cases, good in 12 and 02 failures were observed. On the infectious; remaining infection were observed in 02 and required amputation of leg. The modified method of Papineau seems superior to any other method used for treatment of infected pseudarthrosis of tibia.

A series of substituted styryl 5-methyl-2-furyl ketones have been synthesized by closed-aldol reaction. The purities of these chalcones were checked by their physical constants and spectral data published earlier in literature.  The insect antifeedant activities of these ketones were studied using 4^th instar larvae Achoea Janata L with castor leaf discs.

Aim: The main aim of this study is analysis of job satisfaction and professional commitment between staffs in Kermanshah. Materials and methods: This study is according to descriptive analysis and reaching branch and information gathering tools is question air and for assessing job satisfaction we use briefed and worth 18 question airs and for analysis of professional commitment and organizational commitment receive 83% static and 87% from job satisfaction question air, because crownbakh in both question air is more than 0/7 so both question air necessary static. Sample population volume 150subjects from privet banks in Kermanshah and according to sampling random way some of them had been chosen a stoical population and finally we collected 18 questions airs. Findings: For determining normality of data we use kolomogrove – sminoroph test and results of tests confirm normality of data so meaningful relationship between them had approved.

Electronic mail is a powerful means of communication. It is fast become a primary means of communication. It is however different from other means of communication, for instance the dimensions differ in: speed, permanence of the message; cost of distribution, deliverance to individuals and groups; an ability to filter, channel, record, and control messages. There is also a lack of ‘intimacy’ inherent in email that many believe does exist in posted letters. This can be a problem when emailing unknown persons in the hope of generating a response to a matter which relies on their taking time to ponder the query and compose a reply. We set out to examine whether posted letter would elicit more replies than emails and the rest of this paper describes the results. We conclude that posting a letter does indeed induce more replies than email.

Information literacy is an essential competence for the contemporary information society. An information literate person knows why and how to use information for achieving the purposes, and act ethically. In order to further understand the information literacy of undergraduates and establish the base for the practice strategy promoting undergraduates' information literacy, the self-made "Questionnaire of Undergraduates' Information Literacy" is used in the study. The quantitative responses were analyzed by SPSS. The Cronbach's reliability coefficient of the scale was 0.875. In light of the results of the analysis, the undergraduates’ level of information literacy is on the intermediate. The ability of undergraduates to find, seek, assess and use information effectively is fairly good. During the processing of learning, information literate undergraduates should improve the efficiency in the way handle information.

Aims: to determine the prevalence of different ultrasound lesions ( synovial hypertrophy, effusion synovial ,bone erosion, enthesopathy , tendinopathy, osteophytes ) of the hip among patients with rheumatoid arthritis ; to compare these ultrasound lesions of the hip with clinical and biological parameters . Materials and methods: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis were included according to the 2010 ACR/EULAR criteria. The evaluation scores as (Disease Activity Score 28, Heath Assessment Questionnaire) were collected. Ultrasound explorations were performed bilaterally on the hip, according to recommended and appropriate techniques. Examination sought synovial hypertrophy, effusion synovial, bone erosion, enthesopathy, tendinopathy, bursitis, osteophytes. Results: The study included 37 patients, with the average age of 50.30 ± 11 years. A total of 73 hips were explored using ultrasound. During the inclusion of patients, we obtained the frequency of current spontaneous coxo-femoral joint pain, peri coxo-femoral joint pain , limitation of hip , respectively 7(10%) , 4(5%) and 5(7%). For ultrasound data ,the frequency of synovial hypertrophy , effusion joints , and bone erosions were respectively represented in 17(23%) , 12(16%) and 2(3%). Conclusion: Our study revealed 14% of ultrasound abnormalities despite how normal the clinical examinations were. This study suggests that ultrasound is a complement to the clinical examination and it would be desirable to conduct more researches for the evaluation of the Doppler activity in the hips. 

Electropolishing of copper in phosphoric acid is considered as corrosion rate of copper and due to the economic importance of copper there are several researches deals with acceleration and inhibition of this process. From the previous studies this process may be controlled by the presence of some materials which may cause acceleration or inhibition of this process. In this paper the electropolishing process inhibited with different ratio by addition of some organic phenols derivatives by addition with concentration ( 10-5 - 10-2 mol. l -1 ).The results reveal that organic phenols have strongest inhibitive effect ranging from 4.92 to 40.98 % and the thermodynamic parameters and as well as adsorption isotherm were given.

Trying to explain the principles of management, with the help of the different approaches is done by scholars in seminary and university. Approaches such as: fundamentalism, religious, legal, exegetical, historical, governmental method of the Prophet (pbuh) and Imam Ali (AS). Undoubtedly, each of these approaches is directly applicable at all or at least some managerial areas such as general manager duties, specific duties of directors, influence of principles and assumptions, managerial qualities and characteristics, management philosophy, management techniques, theory and management, etc. “Management control is the major component. Control and monitoring is the assessment of decisions and programs since its implementation and necessary proceedings to prevent the diversion of program operations and correct the possible caused deviations.” (Jasbi, 274:1991)In this paper, an approach to the study of organizational control principles based on the effective mechanisms in order to explain the control and surveillance sources and devices in Islam have been reviewed. In addition, competition and regulatory role of Raghib and ATid, prophets and saints, angels, testimonies of members and organs of the human soul, approximately, enjoined and prohibited from denying public and self-control, especially as the top element of organizational life, and discuss focus is placed. Furthermore, the role of prophets and saints, angels, testimonies of members and organs of the human soul, public enjoined and prohibited from denying and self-control, especially as the superior and effective element of organizational life, will be discussed and explored.
