There is often the need to update an installed Intrusion Detection System (IDS) due to new attack methods or upgraded computing environments. Since many current IDSs are constructed by manual encoding of expert security knowledge, changes to IDSs are expensive and require a large amount of programming and debugging. We describe a data mining framework for adaptively building Intrusion Detection...

BACKGROUND The menstrual cycle influences pain, with symptoms often increasing during the premenstrual (late-luteal) phase. Deficiencies in endogenous inhibition of afferent nociception at the spinal level might contribute to menstrual phase-related changes in pain. PURPOSE This study assessed whether conditioned pain modulation (CPM) of spinal nociception differs between mid-follicular and l...

Spleen cells from NFR/N mice primed with carrier rabbit erythrocytes were passed through nylon wool and fused with cells from the AKR T-cell lymphoma BW5147 in order to construct functional T-cell hybridomas. Several hybrids have been obtained. One of the cloned hybrids possesses a marked capacity to functionally complement the T-cell-dependent hapten-specific plaque-forming cell responses of N...

Recently, Data Warehouse has proven to be a powerful technology for the integration of heterogeneous data into a multidimensional repository for decision-support analysis. The complex ETL (extraction, transformation and loading) process and the aggregation-intensive queries are affected by a sequence of domain specific NFRs (Non Functional Requirement). This advocates the use of service oriente...

Research indicates pain may be influenced by the menstrual cycle. While the mechanisms underlying these effects are unclear, it is possible that menstrual phase-related changes in endogenous pain modulation contribute. The present study used well-validated methods to study affective modulation of pain and the nociceptive flexion reflex (NFR) in healthy women during two menstrual phases (mid-fol...

Fibromyalgia (FM) is characterized by widespread pain, as well as affective disturbance (eg, depression). Given that emotional processes are known to modulate pain, a disruption of emotion and emotional modulation of pain and nociception may contribute to FM. The present study used a well-validated affective picture-viewing paradigm to study emotional processing and emotional modulation of pain...

 Overview, Informed Consent & Eligibility Determination (Health Status Screening) -Two testing sessions were completed on separate days -Testing session and test order were counterbalanced -Informed consent obtained at beginning of first testing session  Life Events Checklist Administered -Self-report measure that indicated the number of traumatic events an individual has experienced in their...

Requirement Engineering (RE) deals with the requirements of a proposed solution and handles conflicting requirements of the various stakeholders and is critical to the success of a project. Good requirement engineering methodologies should be measurable, testable and should be sufficient for system design. Another important aspect of Requirement engineering is to capture the non functional requ...

In S. cerevisiae, histone variant H2A.Z is deposited in euchromatin at the flanks of silent heterochromatin to prevent its ectopic spread. We show that H2A.Z nucleosomes are found at promoter regions of nearly all genes in euchromatin. They generally occur as two positioned nucleosomes that flank a nucleosome-free region (NFR) that contains the transcription start site. Astonishingly, enrichmen...
