In order to have successful application of genomic selection, reference population and marker density should be chosen properly. This study purpose was to investigate the accuracy of genomic estimated breeding values in terms of low (5K), intermediate (50K) and high (777K) densities in the simulated populations, when different scenarios were applied about the reference populations selecting. Af...

There are increasing numbers of systems and research projects involving software agents and mobile agents. However, there is no reference model or conceptual framework to compare the resulting systems. In this paper, we propose a reference model to identify, classify and evaluate mobile agent systems having a significant set of non-trivial architectural issues and technical and functional featu...

ooms et al sets out some good general principles for a global social support system to improve fairer global competitiveness as a result of redistribution. this commentary sets out to summarize some of the conditions that would need to be satisfied for it to level up gradients in inequality through such a social support system, using the national basketball association (nba) example as a point ...
