TL;DR: A parallel repetitive nearest neighbor algorithm for solving the symmetric traveling salesman problem on OTIS-Hypercube and OTis-Mesh optoelectronic architectures is presented and attained almost near-linear speedup and high efficiency among the two selected optoeLECTronic architectures.
Abstract: Over the past years, researchers drew their attention to propose optoelectronic architectures, including optical transpose interconnection system (OTIS) networks. On the other hand, there are limited attempts devoted to design parallel algorithms for applications that could be mapped on such optoelectronic architectures. Thus, exploiting the attractive features of OTIS networks and investigating their performance in solving combinatorial optimization problems become a great necessity. In this paper, a parallel repetitive nearest neighbor algorithm for solving the symmetric traveling salesman problem on OTIS-Hypercube and OTIS-Mesh optoelectronic architectures is presented. This algorithm has been evaluated analytically and by simulation on both optoelectronic architectures in terms of number of communication steps, parallel run time, speedup, efficiency, cost and communication cost. The simulation results attained almost near-linear speedup and high efficiency among the two selected optoelectronic architectures, where OTIS-Hypercube gained better results in comparison with OTIS-Mesh.

TL;DR: In this paper, the antioxidant properties of water and alcohol extracts of chamomile (Matricaria aurea Schultz) and seeds of anise (Pimpinella anisum L) and dill (Anethum graveolens L) were investigated.
Abstract: The antioxidant activities of water and alcohol extracts of the flowers of chamomile (Matricaria aurea Schultz) and the seeds of anise (Pimpinella anisum L) and dill (Anethum graveolens L) were investigated. The extracts showed marked antioxidant activity in both linoleic acid and liposome model systems. This indicates that the extracts could be used as antioxidants in fat-containing foods. The water extracts of chamomile flowers and dill seeds showed higher antioxidant activity than butylated hydroxyanisole, whereas the antioxidant activities of the alcohol extracts of all three plants were lower. The water extracts showed higher antioxidant activity than the corresponding alcohol extracts. The antioxidant activity of both water and alcohol extracts decreased in the order chamomile flowers > gtill seeds > gtnise seeds. The extracts also showed good free radical-scavenging activity, indicating that they act as hydrogen donors. Copyright © 2004 Society of Chemical Industry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new approach to characterize and model the kinetics of THM species using nonlinear optimization, which combines site-specific water quality trends with stoichiometric expressions based on an average representative bromine content factor of the source.
