A resource space model (RSM) is a model for specifying, sharing and managing versatile Web resources with a universal resource view. A normal resource space is a semantic coordinate system with independent coordinates and mutual-orthogonal axes. This paper first introduces the main viewpoint and basic content of the RSM, and then proposes a four-step method for designing the logical-level resou...

When information sequences are embedded into radar waveforms by means of coding diversity, the resulting radar emissions then change on a pulse-to-pulse basis during a coherent processing interval (CPI). As such, pulse compression of these different waveforms leads to different sidelobe structures, giving rise to range sidelobe modulation (RSM) of the clutter. The presence of RSM induces a part...

In this study of coagulation operation, a comparison was made between the optimum jar test values for pH, coagulant and coagulant aid obtained from traditional methods (an adjusted one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method) and with central composite design (the standard design of response surface methodology (RSM)). Alum (coagulant) and polymer (coagulant aid) were used to treat a water source with v...

In this letter, we introduce the Riemann sum method (RSM) as an effective tool for the design of sum-of-cisoids (SOC) simulators for narrowband mobile Rayleigh fading channels under non-isotropic scattering conditions. We compare the performance of the RSM with that of the generalized method of equal areas (GMEA) and the Lp-norm method (LPNM), which were until now the only methods available for...

Protein Z-dependent protease inhibitor (ZPI) is a 72 kDa single-chain serpin which inhibits the activated coagulation factors X and XI. Two non-sense polymorphisms of ZPI, R67X and W303X, were recently identified, and were linked with a prothrombotic state. Here, we investigated the association of the R67X (728C>T) and W303X (1438G>A) variants in the ZPI gene with recurrent spontaneous miscarri...

An experiment was conducted to determine whether brewers rice can replace all corn in diets for swine and reduce fecal excretion of Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) without compromising performance and carcass quality of growing-finishing pigs. Sixteen Yorkshire x Duroc x Hampshire crosses (BW = 77±2.5 kg) were randomly assigned to either corn/soybean meal (CSM; control) or brewers rice/soybean ...

The major impact of the livestock sector on the environment may be reduced by feeding agricultural co-products to animals. Since the last decade, co-products from biodiesel production, such as rapeseed meal (RSM), became increasingly available in Europe. Consequently, an increase in RSM content in livestock diets was observed at the expense of soybean meal (SBM) content. Cultivation of SBM is a...
