The adenovirus major late transcription unit is a well-characterized transcription unit which relies heavily on alternative pre-mRNA processing to generate distinct populations of mRNA during the early and late stages of viral infection. In the early stage of infection, two major late transcription unit mRNA transcripts are generated through use of the first (L1) of five available poly(A) sites...

This paper presents a comparison of different configurations of a wireless sensor system for capturing human motion. The systems consist of sensor elements which wirelessly transfers motion data to a receiver element. The sensor elements consist of a microcontroller, accelerometer(s) and a radio transceiver. The receiver element consists of a radio receiver connected through a microcontroller t...

in order to assess the potential of copper mineralization and its associated elements in soltan meydan basaltic formation situated in the north of shahrud, the method of stream sediment and heavy mineral has been used. to achieve this aim, totally 68 samples of sediments (-80 mesh in particle size) and 6 samples of heavy minerals (-20 mesh in particle size) have been collected in an optimized n...

This document will outline the theoretical background and operating principles of a general finite element code which has been developed for research and teaching of materials processing operations, and present examples of its use. Some of this information is rather condensed, and the reader will probably wish to consult additional sources such as those listed in the References section for more...

Sequence comparison with aane gap costs is a problem that is readily parallelizable on simple single-instruction, multiple-data stream (SIMD) parallel processors using only constant space per processing element. Unfortunately, the twin problem of sequence alignment, nding the optimal character-by-character correspondence between two sequences, is more complicated. While the innovative O(n 2)-ti...

Sequence comparison with affine gap costs is a problem that is readily parallelizable on simple single-instruction, multiple-data stream (SIMD) parallel processors using only constant space per processing element. Unfortunately, the twin problem of sequence alignment, finding the optimal character-by-character correspondence between two sequences, is more complicated. While the innovative O(n2)...

Traditionally, the number of transmit and receive processing channels is equal to the number of transducers (N) in an ultrasound imaging system. Certain applications limit the number of processing channels such that there are fewer channels than transducer elements. For these cases, a subset of M adjacent transducers—a multi-element subarray— performs echo transmission and reception. The proces...

A chip architecture that integrates a fingerprint sensor and an identifier in a single chip is proposed. The fingerprint identifier is formed by an array of pixels, and each pixel contains a sensing element and a processing element. The sensing element senses capacitances formed by a finger surface to capture a fingerprint image. An identification is performed by the pixel-parallel processing o...

Modern vehicle bodies make intensive use of high strength steel grades to meet the contradicting demand of lighter weight and simultaneously better mechanical performance. For many steel grades microalloying by niobium is the key to achieve their characteristic property profile. In HSLA steels niobium enhances the strength primarily by grain refinement. In interstitial free high strength steels...
