Pseudo-nitzschia blooms often occur in coastal and open ocean environments, sometimes leading to the production of the neurotoxin domoic acid that can cause severe negative impacts to higher trophic levels. Increasing evidence suggests a close relationship between phytoplankton bloom and bacterial assemblages, however, the microbial composition and succession during a bloom process is unknown. ...

This paper presents new alternatives to the well-known Bloom filter data structure. The Bloom filter, a compact data structure supporting set insertion and membership queries, has found wide application in databases, storage systems, and networks. Because the Bloom filter performs frequent random reads and writes, it is used almost exclusively in RAM, limiting the size of the sets it can repres...

This paper aims at exploring the characteristics and skills required of mental Health human services workers. An analysis of the vital skills will be presented and the fundamental characteristics such as having a caring heart, patience, compassionate, and driven with the desire to see all people gain the best out of their lives. This is because the success of our lives is driven with having a s...

This is the first high temporal-resolution study in Disko Bay covering population dynamics, grazing, reproduction, and biochemical composition of 3 dominating copepod species (Calanus finmarchicus, C. glacialis and C. hyperboreus) from late winter to midsummer in 2008. C. finmarchicus and C. glacialis ascended to the surface layer at the onset of the spring phytoplankton bloom, followed by C. h...

Article history: Received 6 March 2010 Received in revised form 16 July 2011 Accepted 18 July 2011 Available online 31 July 2011 The RFID technology has been applied to a wide range of areas since it does not require contact in detecting RFID tags. However, due to the multiple readings in many cases in detecting an RFID tag and the deployment of multiple readers, RFID data contains many duplica...

Transactional Memory (TM) systems ease multithreaded application development by giving the programmer the ability to specify that some regions of code, called transactions, must be executed atomically. To achieve high efficiency, TM systems optimistically try to execute multiple transactions concurrently and either stall or abort some of them if a conflict occurs. A conflict happens if two or m...

Last decade is characterised by the convergence of pervasive technologies including wireless communication, smart devices and the Internet. The resulting Internet of the things enables not-only users but also things to access resource anywhere, anytime. In practice, data is ubiquitously flowed relying on global wireless connectivity (e.g., 3G) or on ad hoc-based local area networking, as enable...

Bloom Filters (BF) [1] are space-e cient datastructures that allow membership queries from a set. In most recent years they have gained great momentum and various tweaks to them have been proposed to achieve speci c goals. Dynamic Bloom Filters (DBF) have been proposed [2] as a method to implement Bloom Filters in a scalable environment, i.e. where the nal size of a dataset is not known in adva...

BACKGROUND Bloom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by extraordinary cancer incidence early in life and an average life expectancy of ~27 years. Premature stop codons in BLM, which encodes a DNA helicase that functions in DNA double-strand-break repair, make up the vast majority of Bloom syndrome mutations, with only 13 single amino acid changes identified in the syndrome...
