Diaphragmatic crural eventration
No full textAim: We evaluated patients with gastric volvulus secondary to diaphragmatic pathology. Materials and Methods: Eight patients (5 males and 3 females) presented to the author in a tertiary care center during 1997-2006 were analyzed in terms of age, sex, symptomatology, diagnosis and predisposing factors. Observations: Six had an acute presentation and rest had chronic symptomatology. The two patients who had total gangrene stomach died postoperatively and one patient died preoperatively due to aspiration. All the cases presented with acute symptoms had diaphragmatic pathology, and out of these, three cases had the specific entity, which is named as diaphragmatic crural eventration. Conclusions: Diaphragmatic crural eventration is characterized by the defective development of the right crus of diaphragm, and this is embryologically significant as the right crus and ligaments of the stomach develop from dorsal mesoesophagus and mesogastrium. The author recommends a closer look for this defect of diaphragm while operating a case of gastric volvulus

No full textAbstract Internet Traffic has grown exponentially over last few years due to provision of multiple class services through Internet backbone. With the explosive use of Internet, contemporary Internet routers are susceptible to overloads and their services deteriorate drastically and often cause denial of services. In this paper, an analysis is made how forecasting technique, routing algorithm and Genetic algorithm can be simultaneously applied for solving a multi-constrained routing problem in Quality of service (QoS) traffic in Internet. Also, a model is suggested for solving the above-mentioned problem. Simulation results show that the throughput of the given network is enhanced by implementing the model. It can also be seen that the average delay of packets flowing through the network comes down when the proposed model is employed for the network
New practical algorithms for the approximate shortest lattice vector
No full textWe present a practical algorithm that given an LLL-reduced lattice basis of dimension n, runs in time O(n3(k=6)k=4+n4) and approximates the length of the shortest, non-zero lattice vector to within a factor (k=6)n=(2k). This result is based on reasonable heuristics. Compared to previous practical algorithms the new method reduces the proven approximation factor achievable in a given time to less than its fourthth root. We also present a sieve algorithm inspired by Ajtai, Kumar, Sivakumar [AKS01]
