Ski interacting protein (Skip) plays an important role in the transforming activity of both v-Ski and EBNA2 (Epstein-Barr virus encoded latency protein) and is involved in EBNA2 and NotchIC activation of CBF1-repressed promoters. We have previously shown that Skip acts as a transcriptional co-activator on a number of cellular and viral promoters. Here, we report that Skip also interacts with pR...

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown advantages in various graph-based applications. Most existing GNNs assume strong homophily of graph structure and apply permutation-invariant local aggregation neighbors to learn a representation for each node. However, they fail generalize heterophilic graphs, where most neighboring nodes different labels or features, the relevant are distant. Few recent...

2 Abstract Pointers 7 2.1 Pointer Provenance . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 2.1.1 Q1. Must the pointer used for a memory access have the right provenance, i.e. be derived from the pointer to the original allocation (with undefined behaviour otherwise)? (This lets compilers do provenance-based alias analysis) . . 7 2.1.2 Q2. Can equality testing on pointers be affected by pointer provenance informa...

The skip list was introduced by Pugh in 1989 as a data structure for dictionary operations. Using a binary tree representation of skip lists, we obtain the limit law for the path lengths of the leaves in the skip list . We also show that the height (maximal path length) of a skip list holding n elements is in probability asymptotic to c log, / n, where c is the unique solution greater than 1 of...

The Ski-interacting protein (SKIP) is a transcriptional cofactor distinct from other cofactors and is involved in regulation of many cancer-related proteins. However, its distribution and clinical significances in bladder cancer remains poorly understood. In this study, Quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry were performed to detect the expression of SKIP in clinical bladder cancer...

A set A ⊆ ω is cototal if it is enumeration reducible to its complement, A. The skip of A is the uniform upper bound of the complements of all sets enumeration reducible to A. These are closely connected: A has cototal degree if and only if it is enumeration reducible to its skip. We study cototality and related properties, using the skip operator as a tool in our investigation. We give many ex...

In this paper, a new fast mode decision (FMD) algorithm is proposed for the state-of-the-art video coding standard H.264/AVC. Firstly, based on Rate-Distortion (RD) cost characteristics, all inter modes are classified into two groups, one is Skip mode (including both Skip and Direct modes) and all the other inter modes are called non-Skip modes. In order to select the best mode for coding a Mac...

This paper is motivated by a low level analysis of various categories of severe security vulnerabilities, which indicates that a common characteristic of many classes of vulnerabilities is pointer taintedness. A pointer is said to be tainted if a user input can directly or indirectly be used as a pointer value. In order to reason about pointer taintedness, a memory model is needed. The main con...
