When the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, Webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. This is not a problem for HCM2000 method. But optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

A degree monotone path in a graph G is a path P such that the sequence of degrees of the vertices in the order in which they appear on P is monotonic. The length (number of vertices) of the longest degree monotone path in G is denoted by mp(G). This parameter, inspired by the well-known ErdősSzekeres theorem, has been studied by the authors in two earlier papers. Here we consider a saturation p...

Large-scale screens for loss-of-function mutants have played a significant role in recent advances in developmental biology and other fields. In such mutant screens, it is desirable to estimate the degree of "saturation" of the screen (i.e., what fraction of the possible target genes has been identified). We applied Bayesian and maximum-likelihood methods for estimating the number of loci remai...

The influence of the degree of saturation (DOS) of a gas in a solution on the intensity of multibubble sonoluminescence (MBSL) excited by ultrasound with a frequency of 261 kHz is investigated at various ultrasonic powers and with different concentrations of ethanol, which is added as a volatile solute. At relatively low powers and a high DOS, low ethanol concentrations give higher sonoluminesc...
