Welch–Gong (WG) transformation sequences are binary sequences of period 2 1 with two-level autocorrelation. These sequences were discovered by Golomb, Gong, and Gaal in 1998 and they verified the validity of their construction for 5 20. Later, No, Chung, and Yun found another way to construct the WG sequences and verified their result for 5 23. Dillon first proved this result for odd in 1998, a...

Welch-Gong (WG) transformation sequences are binary sequences of period 2 − 1 with 2-level auto correlation. These sequences were discovered by Golomb, Gong and Gaal in 1998 and verified for 5 ≤ n ≤ 20. Later on, No, Chung and Yun found another way to construct the WG sequences and verified their result for 5 ≤ n ≤ 23. Dillon first proved this result for odd n in 1998, and finally, Dobbertin an...

Pseudorandom number generators play an important role to provide security and privacy on radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. In particular, the EPC Class 1 Generation 2 (EPC C1 Gen2) standard uses a pseudorandom number generator in the tag identification protocol. In this paper, we first present a pseudorandom number generator, named the filtering nonlinear feedback shift register using...

Three experiments were conducted to determine the nutritional value of wheat gluten (WG) for weanling pigs. In Exp. 1, 72 pigs (4.2 kg average BW) were used in a N metabolism experiment. Treatments were 1) casein-corn-based control; 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6) Diet 1 with flash-dried WG, spray-dried WG, two enzyme-modified (to increase solubility) WG, and soybean meal (SBM) used to replace casein, respe...

BACKGROUND Lack of CD28 expression on peripheral blood CD4+ and CD8+ T cells has been reported in patients with Wegener's granulomatosis (WG), suggesting a pathogenetic role of CD28- T cells in WG. METHODS Ten patients with WG and six with sarcoidosis (disease control) were analysed. Fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis was used to detect CD28 expression on T cells from peripher...

Ž . Apparent digestibility coefficients ADCs of macronutrients and energy, and apparent absorpŽ . tion coefficients AACs of amino acids and elements were assessed in an experiment with 0.9 kg Atlantic salmon reared in saltwater tanks. Duplicate groups of fish were fed five diets, where 0, Ž . Ž . 6.25, 12.5, 25 and 50% of crude protein CP from fish meal FM was replaced with CP from Ž . wheat gl...

Tissue growth during animal development depends on the coordination of cell proliferation and cell death. The EGF-receptor/MAPK, Hedgehog, Dpp, Wingless (Wg) and Notch signaling pathways have been implicated in growth control in the developing Drosophila wing. In this report, we examine the effects of Notch and Wg on growth in terms of cell proliferation and cell survival. Reduction of Wg signa...

Recent studies in Drosophila have shown that heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for Wingless (Wg/Wnt) signaling. In addition, genetic and phenotypic analyses have implicated the glypican gene dally in this process. Here, we report the identification of another Drosophila glypican gene, dally-like (dly) and show that it is also involved in Wg signaling. Inhibition of dly gene act...

Morphogens are signaling molecules that regulate growth and patterning during development by forming a gradient and activating different target genes at different concentrations. The extracellular distribution of morphogens is tightly regulated, with the Drosophila morphogen Wingless (Wg) relying on Dally-like (Dlp) and transcytosis for its distribution. However, in the absence of Dlp or endocy...

We survey and analyse the relevant existing work on typing of rules, in particular on typing of constraint logic programs and discuss applicability of these approaches to the REWERSE reasoning and query languages under development by WG I1 and by WG I4. This is related to WG I1, developing logic programming like languages for reasoning on the web and with WG I4 investigating development of decl...
