To achieve acceptable query response times in data warehouse environments, the data have to be pre-aggregated according to the need of the applications and stored redundantly. These materialized views must be kept up to date, to assure their usability. In this paper we present an algorithm which improves the maintenance of materialized views in two ways. In the first place, the maintenance proc...

Privacy of users in P2P networks goes far beyond their current usage and is a fundamental requirement to the adoption of P2P protocols for legal usage. In a climate of cold war between these users and anti-piracy groups, more and more users are moving to anonymizing networks in an attempt to hide their identity. However, when not designed to protect users information, a P2P protocol would leak ...

The development of high-throughput genomic technologies has impacted many areas of genetic research. While many applications of these technologies focus on the discovery of genes involved in disease from population samples, applications of genomic technologies to an individual's genome or personal genomics have recently gained much interest. One such application is the identification of relativ...

Stent under expansion is one of the reasons compromising outcomes percutaneous coronary interventions. The most common cause stent calcium deposited in atherosclerotic plaque. Adequate plaque modification paramount before placement a stent, as options to handle expanded are limited and less effective. In this case report, we explore usage knuckle wire for extrastent modification, after being fa...

Candida albicans is the most common human fungal pathogen. Recent evidence has revealed the occurrence of apoptosis in C. albicans that is inducible by environmental stresses such as hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, and amphotericin B. Apoptosis is regulated by the calcineurin-caspase pathway in C. albicans, and calcineurin is under the control of Hsp90 in echinocandin resistance. However, the r...
