The Clermont scheme has been used for subtyping of Escherichia coli since it was initially described in early 2000. Since then, researchers have used the scheme to type and sub-type commensal E. coli and pathogenic E. coli, such as extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC), and compare their phylogenetic assignment by pathogenicity, serogroup, distribution among ExPEC of different host species...

In this paper, we propose a new minimum total communication distance (TCD) algorithm and an optimal TCD algorithm for broadcast in a 2-dimension mesh. The former generates a minimum TCD from a given source node, and the latter guarantees a minimum TCD among all the possible source nodes. These algorithms can be generalized to a d-dimensional mesh or torus. TCD can potentially be used as a measu...

sometimes there comes a pronoun after a common [individual], which has apparently been used as the object of a legal decision (ḥukm), and by means of external evidence, the certainty is achieved that this pronoun refers to some common individuals. then, the question arises as to whether reference of the pronoun to some common individuals would cause its designation or the common generality cont...
