In this paper we evaluate the performance of a seed lling algorithm operating in view lattice when rendering maximum intensity projections (MIP). We evaluate the combination of the seed lling algorithm and the template algorithm. We show that the template algorithm is a particularly attractive companion to the seed lling algorithm, because the template algorithm allows stepping in all six direc...

Abstract Seed size can have an impact on angiosperm reproductive fitness. Ecological theory predicts plants that will produce larger seeds in stressful environments to increase the chances of seedling survival and numerous small favourable conditions number recruits. We measured seed morphology seagrass Heterozostera nigricaulis from four populations under differing environmental South East Aus...

Although influence maximization problem has been extensively studied over the past ten years, majority of existing work adopt one of the following models: full-feedback model or zero-feedback model. In the zerofeedback model, we have to commit the seed users all at once in advance, this strategy is also known as non-adaptive policy. In the full-feedback model, we select one seed at a time and w...

We explore the effect of high-κ dielectric seed layer and overlayer on carrier transport in epitaxial graphene. We introduce a novel seeding technique for depositing dielectrics by atomic layer deposition that utilizes direct deposition of high-κ seed layers and can lead to an increase in Hall mobility up to 70% from as-grown. Additionally, high-κ seeded dielectrics are shown to produce superio...

Genomic sequencing is rapidly becoming a premier generator of Big Data, posing great computational challenges. Hence, acceleration of the algorithms used is of utmost importance. This paper presents a GPU-accelerated implementation of BWA-MEM, a widely used algorithm to map genomic sequences onto a reference genome. BWA-MEM contains three main computational functions: Seed Generation, Seed Exte...

Order batching is one of the methods used in warehouses to minimize the travel distance of pickers. In this paper, we focus on developing order-batching methods for an order-picking warehouse with two cross aisles and an I/O point at one of its corners. Each of these methods is made up of one seed-order selection rule and one accompanying-order selection rule. Eleven seed-order selection rules ...

The crude seed extract of neem, black pepper, mahogani, and garlic bulb with three doses were evaluated against legume pod borer in the country bean field in two seasons kharif 2006 and rabi 2006-2007. The neem seed extract applied @150 and 100 g/l and mahogani seed extract @ 100 g/l of water 7 days intervals on the country bean showed better performance in the reduction of flower and pod damag...
