There are many existing solutions for this, such as dual/triple modular redundancy, DIVA, Bulletproof, etc. Another work, StageNet[1], uses a reconfigurable and adaptable network of replicated and isolated processor pipeline stages to maximize the useful lifetime of a chip. The network is formed by replacing the direct connections at each pipeline stage boundary by a crossbar switch interconnec...

in order to comparison and determination of the best drought tolerance indices in sweet corn hybrids, an experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design in split plot lay out with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute in karaj in 2006. three irrigation levels (irrigation after 75 as control, 100 and 125 millimeters cumulative evaporation from class a evapo...

UNLABELLED This paper investigates the hypothesis that stuttering may result in part from impaired readout of feedforward control of speech, which forces persons who stutter (PWS) to produce speech with a motor strategy that is weighted too much toward auditory feedback control. Over-reliance on feedback control leads to production errors which if they grow large enough, can cause the motor sys...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) of subtype H5N1 not only cause a devastating disease in domestic chickens and turkeys but also pose a continuous threat to public health. In some countries, H5N1 viruses continue to circulate and evolve into new clades and subclades. The rapid evolution of these viruses represents a problem for virus diagnosis and control. In this work, recombin...

Serological surveillance and vaccination are important strategies for controlling infectious diseases of food production animals. However, the compatibility of these strategies is limited by a lack of assays capable of differentiating infected from vaccinated animals (DIVA tests) for established killed or attenuated vaccines. Here, we used next generation phage-display (NGPD) and a 2-proportion...

A monoclonal antibody (McAb) against non-structural protein (NSP) 3B of foot-mouth-disease virus (FMDV) (3B4B1) was generated and shown to recognize a conserved epitope spanning amino acids 24-32 of 3B (GPYAGPMER) by peptide screening ELISA. This epitope was further shown to be a unique and predominant B cell epitope in 3B2, as sera from animals infected with different serotypes of FMDV blocked...

What makes a category seem natural or intuitive? In this paper, an unsupervised categorization task was employed to examine observer agreement concerning the categorization of nine different stimulus sets. The stimulus sets were designed to capture different intuitions about classification structure. The main empirical index of category intuitiveness was the frequency of the preferred classific...

In the visual programming domain, the stress of research is laid on the use of visual formalism, which is considered to be more intuitive than the textual formalism, in the programming task. Some visual languages are based purely on data flow. With such languages, the execution order depends on the availability of data and it is therefore difficult to specify some programming constructs such as...
