We measure the forward-backward asymmetries A[subscript]FB of charged Ξ and Ω baryons produced in p (p) over bar collisions recorded by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider at √s = 1.96 TeV as a function of the baryon rapidity y. We find that the asymmetries A[subscript]FB for charged...
Real-time PCR assays using locked nucleic acid (LNA) probes and high resolution melt (HRM) analysis were developed for molecular differentiation of Pseudoperonospora cubensis and P. humuli, causal agents of cucurbit and hop downy mildew, respectively. The assays were based on a previously identified single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the cytochrome...
An automated library system should be capable of providing at least all of the information and capabilities of existing manual catalogs. In addition, an automated system must provide the capability of manipulating that information to produce varying types of reports and statistics. This paper briefly:
- describes historical representations of...
This project is concerned with the optimal distribution of the computation and the data in parallelized Simplex algorithms. Test cases were implemented on a 16-processor Transputer system from INMOS Corporation. By careful consideration of distribution of computations and data, a nearly linear speedup pattern was obtained. The most
interesting thing...
The information processing industry is one of the fastest growing, and most dynamic industries on the scientific as well as business scene, today. Progress in designing and applying computing systems has out raced progress in evaluating their performance. In order to circumvent this trend, there should be a simultaneous development...
This research paper is limited to the User Interface of the modeling language of HELM (Hierarchical Environment for Linear Modeling). In attempt to better describe the user interface for HELM, some examples and portions of Carol Brown's report are included for ease of reading and a brief overview of the...
The distribution of mobile marine predators often reflects underlying dynamic ecological processes. The geographical focus of this PhD is the South Taranaki Bight (STB) of New Zealand, where wind-driven coastal upwelling generates productivity and prey to support a blue whale foraging ground. The STB is also New Zealand’s most industrial...
The Server System/1 (SS/1) Design Editor is a graphical programming tool that provides a simple interface for object oriented parallel programming. Two difficult problems with parallel programming, partitioning, end visualization are addressed by the SS/1 Design Editor. An SS/1 program is structured using object oriented design concepts. This leads to...
