The German Biography Portal “Deutsche Biographie” is a joint effort of the Historical Commission at the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities and the Bavarian State Library and supported by cultural heritage institutions to develop a historical and biographical information system for the German-speaking world. It includes digital full texts of more than 48.000 articles about persons and f...

The host cell cytoskeleton plays a key role in the life cycle of viral pathogens whose propagation depends on mandatory intracellular steps. Accordingly, also the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has evolved strategies to exploit and modulate in particular the actin cytoskeleton for its purposes. This review will recapitulate recent findings on how HIV-1 hijacks the cytoskeleton to f...

A program, INV2P5DSB, has been developed to simultaneously estimate the depth of a 2.5-D sedimentary basin and regional background from observed gravity anomalies. The density contrast is assumed to be varying parabolically with depth above the basement interface. The main program is supported with two subroutines GRAV2P5D and SIMEQ and a function GPRM. The analysis of gravity anomalies due to ...

The Page equation is the most widely used equation to predict the tensile strength of paper. In this paper, the derivation of the Page equation is examined critically and a modified Page equation is proposed based on a newly developed method to calculate the relative bonded area from sheet density and fibre shape. The predictions of the original and modified Page equations were then tested agai...

monitoring is an essential and inseparable tool for every industrial automation system.  in advanced monitoring, in addition to representation of the process conditions, fast identification and removing of the faults in different critical parts of the system is indispensable. distributed control systems (dcs) are an integral part of the current automation systems and hence, advanced monitoring ...

Web Modeling Language (WebML, http://webml.org) is a notation for visually specifying complex Web sites at the conceptual level. All the concepts of WebML are specified both graphically and in XML; in particular, navigation and composition abstractions are based on a restricted number of hypertext components (units) which are assembled into pages and interconnected by links. During implementati...
