OBJECTIVES (1) To determine the effect of age, height, weight, breed, sex, and specific use on the prevalence of idiopathic left laryngeal hemiplegia (ILH) in a population of draft performance horses; (2) to determine the association between tracheal mucus and laryngeal dysfunction, and the prevalence of exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) in a population of draft performance horses. ...

This paper presents an architectural framework, which identiies the core services necessary for a secure Internet-based communication and information infrastructure. We show how these services can be realized using existing software packages and new technologies. Then, we turn to the development of security infrastructures using the rapid prototyping environment \Wafe" and the extensible Web br...

We describe our experience in designing object-oriented software for a sparse direct solver. We discuss , a library of sparse matrix ordering codes and Oblio, a code implementing the remaining steps in a direct solver. EEciencies comparable to procedural codes are obtained by careful implementations of eecient algorithms. We discuss the other goals of our design: managing complexity, simplicity...

We propose that many potential pitfalls of a research study can be brought to light through the exercise of writing a zeroth draft of the paper before beginning formal data collection. Further, because the zeroth draft of the paper contains the elements required in most research proposals--background, rationale, approach to data analysis, methods, and significance--it may serve as a generic gra...

performances of electronic and mechanical draft control systems on a mf399 tractor were the objectives of the study to be evaluated and compared under field conditions. hence, the effects of two draft control systems (mechanical and electronic) under four ground speed levels and three set values of draft levels on rear wheel slippage, fuel consumption, compressive force within the top link and ...

Till date, only one draft genome has been reported within the genus Mangrovibacter. Here, we report the second draft genome shotgun sequence of a Mangrovibacter sp. strain MP23 that was isolated from the roots of Phargmites karka (P. karka), an invasive weed growing in the Chilika Lagoon, Odisha, India. Strain MP23 is a facultative anaerobic, nitrogen-fixing endophytic bacteria that grows optim...

in this research, a cold model of internally circulating fluidized bed is investigated. the aim is to find the effects of some of the operating parameters on the performance of the reactor. experiments were carried out in a glass column (30 mm i.d. and 25 cm height) with a centrally located draft tube (11 mm i.d. and 5 or 7 cm height). the bed was loaded with white silica particles (dp = 0.15 -...
