Traits are reusable building blocks that can be explicitly composed to share methods across unrelated class hierarchies. In their original form, traits do not contain state and cannot express visibility control for methods. Two extensions, stateful traits and freezable traits, have been proposed to overcome these limitations. However, these extensions introduce complexity and have not yet been ...

BACKGROUND This study was to examine the developmental capacity of oocytes collected from an in vitro maturation (IVM) programme according to their maturation time. METHODS The study included 47 IVM cycles that underwent blastocyst transfer. The patients (n = 38) were primed with 10 000 IU HCG 36 h before their oocyte retrieval. The oocytes were classified into three groups: group 1 (n = 139)...

The reproductive performance of postpartum cows is affected by factors such as suckling and nutrition. We investigated the effect of a restricted suckling period on the superovulatory response and the fertility after flushing in postpartum Japanese Black cows. Forty-seven postpartum cows were used in this study. At 7 days postpartum, the cows were divided into 2 groups: (1) continuous access to...

Deterministic-by-construction parallel programming models offer programmers the promise of freedom from subtle, hard-toreproduce nondeterministic bugs in parallel code. A principled approach to deterministic-by-construction parallel programming with shared state is offered by LVars: shared memory locations whose semantics are defined in terms of a user-specified lattice. Writes to an LVar take ...
