Simple Renal Cysts: Can They be Overlooked?
BACKGROUND / OBJECTIVE The availability and use of abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography for diagnostic purposes has led to frequent detection of asymptomatic renal cysts.

متن کاملFaults in Grids: Why are they so bad and What can be done about it?
Computational Grids have the potential to become the main execution platform for high performance and distributed applications. However, such systems are extremely complex and prone to failures. In this paper, we present a survey with the grid community on which several people shared their actual experience regarding fault treatment. The survey reveals that, nowadays, users have to be highly in...

متن کاملHow Can People Be so Good at Intercepting Accelerating Objects if They Are so Poor at Visually Judging Acceleration?
People are known to be very poor at visually judging acceleration. Yet, they are extremely proficient at intercepting balls that fall under gravitational acceleration. How is this possible? We previously found that people make systematic errors when trying to tap on targets that move with different constant accelerations or decelerations on interleaved trials. Here, we show that providing conte...
