In our previous paper, we have proposed a framework for automatically translating tree-processing programs into stream-processing programs. However, in writing programs that require buffering of input data, a user has to explicitly use buffering primitives which copy data from input stream to memory or copy constructed trees from memory to an output stream. Such explicit insertion of buffering ...

The intracellular non-bicarbonate buffering capacity of vertebrate muscle is mainly supported by the imidazole groups of histidine residues in proteins, free L-histidine in some fish species, and histidine-containing dipeptides such as carnosine, anserine, and balenine (ophidine). The proton buffering capacity markedly differs between muscle types and animal species depending on the ability for...

a study of substantial anthropogenic related pollution in the coastal samut prakarn province (thailand) was carried out focusing on the bang pu nature reserve (remnant mangrove wetland) using a remote sensing (geospatial) technique. statistical regression models were developed between biochemical parameters of sample point and related reflectance data obtained from satellite imagery (landsat tm...

BACKGROUND Baroreflex buffering is an important mechanism in arterial blood pressure control. The effect of healthy (physiological) aging on tonic baroreflex buffering in humans is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Baroreflex buffering was determined in 27 young (aged 25+/-1 years) and 16 older (aged 65+/-1 years) healthy normotensive men by measuring the potentiation of the systolic blood pressur...

A supramolecular system in which the concentration of a molecule is buffered over several orders of magnitude is presented. Molecular buffering is achieved as a result of competition in a ring-chain equilibrium of multivalent ureidopyrimidinone monomers and a monovalent naphthyridine molecule which acts as an end-capper. While we previously only considered divalent ureidopyrimidinone monomers w...

There is increasing evidence that multimedia traffic in a variety of networks including the Internet, exhibits properties of self-similarity such as long-range dependence and a high-degree of correlation between arrivals. The demands of self-similar traffic impose unique new requirements in switch design, especially as far as the buffering strategy is concerned. In this paper, we study buffer s...

Phillipsite tuff samples from Jebal Aritayn (Jordan) was treated chemically by acid, base, and salt and thermally at 200 and 400 oC. Both treated and untreated phillipsite samples were titrated with HCl and NaOH. The potentiometric titration curves showed that Jordanian phillipsite tuff exists in the base form (pH 8.5) and thus has a remarkable buffering capacity toward H. The effect of chemica...

We consider an optimization problem motivated by the tradeoff between connectivity and resilience in key predistribution schemes (KPS) for sensor networks that are based on certain types of combinatorial designs. For a specific class of designs, we show that there is no real disadvantage in requiring the underlying design to be regular.

This study was to evaluate the acid-buffering capacity and antibacterial properties of orthodontic adhesives containing bioactive glasses (BAGs) (45S5, 45S5F, S53P4), Hydroxyapatite, beta-tricalcium phosphate, Canasite. Fillers comprising 15 wt% glasses, HAp, β-TCP, Canasite incorporated with 55 silanated glass were added a mixture UDMA/TEGDMA. Acid-buffering tested by exposing disc-shaped samp...
