The paper describes an implementation of a generator of random instances of non-binary constraint satisfaction problems that meets a given set of specifications. This is a continuation of the work we started in [1]. 1 Description The program is designed to generate random instances of Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs) that meet a set of specified parameters, such as the number of variable...

Progesterone (P4) is frequently used in the treatment of threatened abortion, prevention of recurrent miscarriage and threatened preterm labor.

This study was designed to examine the presence of progesterone receptor (PR) in the human trophoblast-derived HTR-8/SV neo cel...
