The development of the Lee strain of type B influenza
virus was shown to be inhibited by puromycin in tissue culture of the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane. The
compound is an antibiotic of unique structure which has
been reported to possess a broad range of biological activity
against unicellular and...
The amount of instruction level parallelism (ILP) that can be exploited depends
greatly on the size of the instruction window and the number of in-flight instructions
the processor can support. However, this requires a register file with a large set of
physical registers for renaming and multiple ports to provide...
The growth of applications for embedded processors has spawned a need for highly configurable devices. Custom microprocessors have long life cycles for a fast paced market, where as off-the-shelf designs often do not provide the level of configuration, nor the ability to allow system-on-chip designs. This paper presents a description...
Pathogens may alter their hosts, which consequently increases transmission efficiency by vectors. We examined the effects of Raspberry leaf mottle virus [RLMV; Closterovirus (Closteroviridae)] and Raspberry latent virus [RpLV; Reovirus (Reoviridae)], alone and in a co-infection in raspberry, Rubus
idaeus L. (Rosaceae) cv. Meeker, on the behavior and performance of...
This thesis examines the characterization of the femme fatale and the implications of this trope for late-Victorian gender and sexuality in the ghost stories of female aesthete Vernon Lee. In her treatment of the femme fatale figure, Lee both reinforces and complicates the image of the sexualized, often bestialized woman...
The existence of eigenvalues is shown for certain types of
integral equations with continuous kernels, the proofs utilizing some
basic results of collectively compact operator approximation theory.
Two numerical methods are presented that can be used to solve
second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with periodic
boundary conditions. One of these methods is a shooting method developed
solely for the periodic problem. The other, "quasilinearization,"
is a method applicable to a wide variety of problems. It is...
In this thesis a relatively new topological technique, due to A. Granas, called Topological Transversality is used to obtain existence theorems for initial and boundary value problems in a variety of settings. This fixed point result is based on the notions of an essential map and on a priori bounds...
The topic of summability methods has been studied by many
although the name of G. H. Hardy and his classical work "Divergent
Series" is best known. Almost all of the early work was done using
single sequences or series. In the past 30 years research has been
done extending some...
