κ-casein is a glycosilated protein in mammalian milk that plays an essential role in the milk micelles. Control of κ-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other milk protein genes. Transcriptional regulation, a first mechanism for controlling the development of organisms, is carried out by transcription facto...

As hardware failures are no longer rare in the era of cloud computing, cloud software systems must “prevail” against multiple, diverse failures that are likely to occur. Testing software against multiple failures poses the problem of combinatorial explosion of multiple failures. To address this, a tester can write diverse policies that prune down the space of multiple failures while meeting her...

In this paper, we describe the Triana problem-solving environment and outline how a scientist might use it to modularize their applications into a set of cooperating components. We show that using this approach, applications can be distributed onto the Grid in a flexible and intuitive way using any of the distribution policies and mechanisms available within Triana. This is illustrated through ...

Measuring the innovative performance of European Union (EU) is vital to assist in defining public policies that can contribute to stimulate innovation. This study aims to examine the socio-economic factors that contribute to the EU innovative performance. In order to validate the research, the empirical study uses two linear regressions, considering as dependent variables, respectively, the pat...

This paper proposes a new approach to operating system support for fault tolerance. We argue that in order to meet diverse application fault-tolerance requirements, the operating system should allow users to extend its functionality to support application-specific fault-tolerance protocols. We show that this kind of customisability can be achieved by explicitly decomposing the operating system ...

oxidative stress has been implicated in the progression of hiv to aids, since hiv usually replicates in a highly oxidized condition and cd4+ t lymphocytes can be activated via a cascade of internal oxidative pathways, which enhances the formation of proteins and enzymes. thus, antioxidants should potentially be useful for the treatment and prevention of hiv infection as a new alternative strate...

China's monetary policy has been progressively modified and transformed. In this study, the correlation between Chinese stock market is investigated. The CSI 300 index, trading volume of constituent stocks M2 R007 were selected to represent market, quantitative price policy, respectively. transmission mechanism regulatory effects hybrid on studied. Stock prices will rise when People’s Bank Chin...
