Spectral clustering algorithm has been shown to be more effective in finding clusters than most traditional algorithms. However, spectral clustering suffers from a scalability problem in both memory use and computational time when a dataset size is large. To perform clustering on large datasets, we propose to parallelize both memory use and computation on distributed computers. Through an empir...

A study of the quality of 637 referral letters from general practitioners (GPs) and corresponding reply letters from medical specialists showed that both types of letters can be improved, and that specific requests by GPs were addressed explicitly by the specialists in only a limited number of cases. Better referral letters resulted only partly in better reply letters. A letter is considered to...

[structure: see text] As part of our program investigating the use of ethynylated acenes in organic electronics, we have prepared a series of functionalized tetracene derivatives in search of a material with red emission suitable for use in display technologies. A number of such compounds with functionalization on the alkyne and/or the acene ring were easily prepared in one or two steps from co...

This case report describes a 75 year old man who had a renal papillary carcinoma associated with a low grade tumour of the collecting ducts. These tumours showed diVerent immunohistochemical patterns for epithelial membrane antigen, cytokeratin 19, and Ulex europaeus lectin expression. In addition, cytogenetic findings were 47, XY, +7 <7> and 45, XY, −8, add(12)(q–ter)<10> for the papillary ren...

Case Report: A 78-year-old male with relapsed Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia following therapy with chlorambucil underwent a five-week course of TBI. The total dose delivered was 1.5 Gy, given as 0.15 Gy twice weekly for ten sessions. During the course of therapy his CD4 cells increased from 637 (cells/mm3) to 808 partly through treatment and then declined to 654 at the completion of therapy. ...

BRAKMAN S. and GARRETSEN H. (2003) Rethinking the ‘new’ geographical economics, Reg. Studies 37, 637–648. Mainstream economics and geography have largely developed separately. With some notable exceptions, this had led to a situation in which economists and geographers analyse similar issues, but do so in a very different framework and without taking much notice of each other’s work. The main t...
