Late Embryogenesis Abundant proteins (LEAPs) comprise several diverse protein families and are mostly involved in stress tolerance. Most of LEAPs are intrinsically disordered and thus poorly functionally characterized. LEAPs have been classified and a large number of their physico-chemical properties have been statistically analyzed. LEAPs were previously proposed to be a subset of a very wide ...

of the Dissertation Energy Efficient Computing with the Low Power, Energy Aware Processing (LEAP) Architecture by Dustin Hale McIntire Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor William J. Kaiser, Chair Recently, a broad range of ENS applications have appeared for large-scale systems, introducing new requirements leading to new embedded ...

BACKGROUND Scanning cytometry now has many of the features (and power) of multiparameter flow cytometry while keeping its own advantages as an imaging technology. Modern instruments combine capabilities of scanning cytometry with the ability to manipulate cells. A new technology, called LEAP (laser-enabled analysis and processing), offers a unique combination of capabilities in cell purificatio...

The Atmospheric Interceptor Technology (ATT) program (formerly Endo LEAP) is focused on demonstrating strapdown seekers and strapdown guidance for very small miss distance intercepts at very high velocities against ballistic missiles within the atmosphere. This is being accomplished by advancing state-of-the-art technologies for small, lightweight, highly integrated kinetic energy kill vehicles...

BACKGROUND Tailored psychosocial activity-based interventions have been shown to improve mood, behaviour and quality of life for nursing home residents. Occupational therapist delivered activity programs have shown benefits when delivered in home care settings for people with dementia. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of LEAP (Lifestyle Engagement Activity Program) for Li...

The tenacity of an incomplete connected graph G is defined as T (G) = min{ |S|+m(G−S) ω(G−S) : S ⊂ V (G), ω(G− S) > 1}, where ω(G− S) and m(G− S), respectively, denote the number of components and the order of a largest component inG−S. This is a reasonable parameter to measure the vulnerability of networks, as it takes into account both the amount of work done to damage the network and how bad...

Topoi are known to be categories with extra properties that make them much alike the category of Sets. In a Topoi it is possible to define adequate notions of membership, elements and subobjects, power ”sets”, and finally, every Topoi has an internal logic able to justify any reasoning carried inside it. Most of the cases, this logic is not Classical (Boolean). The general logic for the Topoi i...

In December 2015, J‑AIM is completing six years of its publication. In the history of academic journals, six years is a very short period to expect any noticeable impact. According to the Indian tradition, the period of 12 years or one mandala of hard work is known as " Tapas. " J‑AIM has just completed only half a mandala. During this period, we have tried to take baby steps toward our goal to...

This paper provides an overview of the work currently underway at Media Lab Europe to enable an existing, open-source, FIPAcompliant agent platform with the ability to operate in an ad-hoc environment. The motivations for using agents in ad-hoc networks and the requirements this places on an agent platform are discussed. A mechanism for discovering instances of an agent platform using current s...
