We characterized 34 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated in Paraguay in 2005. The strains belonged to two clones. The major clone (sequence type 5 [ST5] or ST221, spa type t149, staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec [SCCmec] type I) was similar to the Cordobes/Chilean clone spreading through South America, and the minor clone (ST239 or ST889, spa type t037, SCCmec type ...

The aspiration of this study is to understand and analyze the concept of software Cloning and its detection. Software cloning is an acuity in which source code is duplicated. Software cloning and its detection is one of emerging and most dominant area of research in the field of software engineering. There exist numbers of techniques to detect clone in software. The focus of this study will be ...

− A code clone is a code portion that is identical or similar to another in a source files. These code clones are called simple clones. And higher level similarities are called structural clones. Since several techniques have been proposed to detect this simple clone, still they occur in large software systems. This new algorithm detects the code clone for control structures such as for, while ...

A Clone Detection approach is to find out the reused fragment of code in any application to maintain .Various types of clones are being identified by clone detection techniques. Since clone detection was evolved, it provides better results and reduces the complexity. A different clone detection tool makes the detection process easier and efficiently produces the results. In many existing system...

There was presented a list of open problems in the Formal Concept Analysis area at the conference ICFCA 2006. The problem number seven deals with the semantics of the clone items. Namely, for whom can clone items make sense and for whom can make sense the item, which can cause, that clones disappear in the collection of itemsets. In this paper we propose the semantics behind clone items with th...

Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are difficult to diagnose and may resemble benign inflammatory dermatoses (BID). Hence, diagnosis requires consideration of clinical, histopathologic, molecular studies. Though, widely used studies rely on the T cell receptor g (TCRg) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detect a clone, it is reportedly positive in ∼50% early CTCL cases. High throughput TCR sequenci...

We introduce a new branch-and-bound Max-SAT solver, Clone, which employs a novel approach for computing lower bounds. This approach allows Clone to search in a reduced space. Moreover, Clone is equipped with novel techniques for learning from soft conflicts. Experimental results show that Clone performs competitively with the leading Max-SAT solver in the broadest category of this year’s Max-SA...
