beta amyloid protein (Abeta) is a 40-43 amino acid peptide derived from amyloid precursor protein (APP). Abeta has been implicated as a cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Mice with spontaneous or… (More)
We present a transaction commit protocol “Transaction Commit On Timeout (TCOT)” based on a “timeout” approach for Mobile Database Systems (MDS), which can be universally used to reach a final… (More)
We present improved bounds for efficient bandwidth allocation in a WDM optical network whose topology is that of a directed tree of fiber-optic links. The problem of bandwidth allocation is modeled… (More)
Senescence accelerated (SAMP8 [P8]) mice develop age-related deficits in memory and learning. We show that increased expression of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and its mRNA in the hippocampus are… (More)
CONTEXT
Studies from Australia and the United Kingdom have shown that some patients with cystic fibrosis are infected with common transmissible strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Location Dependent Data is data whose value depends on its location. The objective of this paper is to introduce this topic and spawn further related research.
We describe the construction of a lactose-utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae that expresses the cDNA for a secreted, thermostable β-galactosidase (lacA) from Aspergillus niger. Yeast cells expressing… (More)
The ultimate success of micropropagation on a commercial scale depends on the ability to transfer plants out of culture on a large scale, at low cost and with high survival rates. During field… (More)
The advances in wireless and mobile computing allow a mobile user to perform a wide range of aplications once limited to non-mobile hard wired computing environments. As the geographical position of… (More)
