the survival, growth, reproductive and life span characteristics of phallocryptus spinosa were studied at different temperatures in the laboratory. three replicates of 200 newly hatched nauplii were transferred to culture containers at 15, 20, 25 and 30˚c. the larvae were fed with unicellular algae dunaliella tertiolecta and chemically treated yeast known as lansy pz. survival and growth rate o...

Female reproductive cessation is one of the earliest age-related declines humans experience, occurring in mid-adulthood. Similarly, Caenorhabditis elegans' reproductive span is short relative to its total life span, with reproduction ceasing about a third into its 15-20 day adulthood. All of the known mutations and treatments that extend C. elegans' reproductive period also regulate longevity, ...

In response to the exponential growth of Internet traffic, web proxy caches are deployed everywhere. Nonetheless, their efficiency relies on a large number of intrinsically dynamic parameters, most of which can not be predicted statically. Furthermore, in order to react to changing execution conditions — such as network resources, user behavior or flash crowds, or to update the web proxy with n...
