An array of complex fourth roots of unity with a perfect auto-correlation property (a PQA) is shown to correspond to an equivalently correlated binary array (a GPBA) by a simple explicit formula. Both objects also correspond to Hadamard matrices of certain forms.

The shift to quality-based incentives continues emerge in pharmacy. Pharmacy Quality Alliance (PQA) is currently working develop pharmacy measures for A1C and blood pressure reporting; adherence medications hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes treatment; antidepressant medication management. These are important that address chronic, high-cost, high-burden diseases, PQA noted. According Lynn...

Static FTIR light-induced difference spectra have been recorded for reaction centers from Rhodopseudomonas viridis in the following charge-separated states: P+QA(-)-PQA, P+QB(-)-PQB, I(-)-I, I-QA(-)-IQA, and I-QA(2-)-IQA. A comparison of the I(-)-I difference spectra with the I-QA(-)-IQA difference spectra reveals new bands which can be assigned to QA- vibrations; these vibrations are also obse...

La ascitis quilosa (AQ) es una entidad rara, y puede manifestarse como reacción peritoneal llamada peritonitis aguda (PQA). Presentamos el caso de un varón 26 años, con cuadro abdominal agudo, por lo que intervenido quirúrgicamente, encontrándose líquido lechoso turbio, en cavidad abdominal, realizándose apendicectomía profiláctica, aspiración lavado cavidad, colocación drenajes. El análisis mo...

with the advent of the distinctive characterization of academic languagein the past thirty years, there has been atremendous move in the esl/efl world towardsformulatinginstructional techniques compatible with the very nature of these skills. as a part of this effort, this studyinvestigated the role of content and language integrated learning (clil) approach in achieving these ends. the study e...

For predicated code a number of predicate analysis systems have been developed like PHG, PQA or PAS. In optimizing compilers for (fully) predicated architectures like the Itanium® 2 processor, the primary application for such systems is global register allocation. This paper classifies predicated live ranges into four types, develops strategies based on classical dataflow analysis to allocate r...

In the fragmented out-of-school-time sector, defining and measuring quality in terms of staff behaviors at the point of service provides a common framework that can reduce obstacles to cross-sector and cross-program performance improvement efforts and streamline adoption of data-driven accountability policies. This chapter views the point of service, that is, the microsettings where adults and ...

Site-directed mutations were constructed in photosystem II of Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 in which the axial ligand, D1-His198, of special pair chlorophyll PD1 was replaced with Gln and where D1-Thr179, which overlies monomeric chlorophyll ChlD1, was replaced with His. The D1-His198Gln mutation produces a 3nm displacement to the blue of the bleaching minimum in the Soret and in the Qy region of t...

Promptly and accurately answering questions on products is important for e-commerce applications. Manually product (e.g. community question platforms) results in slow response does not scale. Recent studies show that reviews are a good source real-time, automatic (PQA). In the literature, PQA formulated as retrieval problem with goal to search most relevant answer given question. this paper, we...

Providing an effective accounting scheme for decentralized peer-to-peer systems is difficult without relying on a central server or peers with special trusted status. In this paper, we present Probabilistic Quorum-based Accounting (PQA) for peer-to-peer systems. In our approach, a peer receiving a request will retrieve resource usage accounting information about the requesting peer from a quoru...
