Traditional caches employ the LRU management policy to drive replacement decisions. However, previous studies have shown LRU can perform significantly worse than the theoretical optimum, OPT [1]. To better match OPT, it is necessary to aggressively anticipate the future memory references performed in the cache. Recently, several researchers have tried to approximate OPT management by predicting...

I described a new UUTD grading system, including HN and UD, based on magnetic resonance urography (MRU) [6] . Herein I describe a new comprehensive classification system for lower and upper urinary tract dysfunction in patients with NB ( table 1 ). In table 1 , LUTD is described according to the Guidelines of the European Association of Urology (EAU) [2] and the terminology of the International...

This column continues the report of a detailed, questionnaire-based, post-release feedback survey of 200 users of the AIDA version 4 educational diabetes simulator. AIDA is a software program—available without charge from www.2aida.org—that permits the interactive simulation of plasma insulin and blood glucose profiles for educational, demonstration, self-learning, and research purposes. The ma...

A soluble rat liver nuclear extract containing total RNA polymerase activities also exhibits appreciable amounts of protein kinase activity. This unfractionated protein kinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of both endogenous proteins and exogenous lysine-rich histone in the presence of [y-32P]ATP and Mg’+. The optimal concentration of Mg*+ is 5 mM for histone phosphorylation and 25 mru for the ...

This formula, derived largely from the work of Talbot, Berman, and MacLachlan (1942), can easily be converted into the form x=mly+m2z which allows the construction of a simple nomogram (Feldman, 1935). The latter greatly accelerates calculation when several estimations are being done together, and reduces the risk of arithmetical error. Thus if the observed extinction at 430 mu=E430=x, the obse...
