Drug development: Sprint finish

To finish or not to finish?

Start Finish

Many real-world planning problems require generating plans that maximize the parallelism inherent in a problem. There are a number of partial-order planners that generate such plans; however, in most of these planners it is unclear under what conditions the resulting plans will be correct and whether the planner can even nd a plan if one exists. This paper identiies the underlying assumptions a...

Surface Finish

Q.1. What factors govern the selection of a particular cleaning process for metallic surfaces Ans. Selection of cleaning process is mainly influenced by (a) Type of contaminants (b) Degree of cleanliness required (c) Composition of metal (d) Condition of metal (e) Thickness of rust and scale (f) Allowable metal loss (g) Surface finish tolerances (h) Shape and size of workpieces (i) Production r...

Muscle stiffness and rate of torque development during sprint cycling.

PURPOSE Crank torque (CT) application and rate of CT development (RCTD) are important considerations in sprint cycling. The stiffness of the musculotendinous unit is related to the isometric rate of torque development (RTD); however, this relationship has yet to be examined in sprint cycling. METHODS Maximal isometric torque (MIT) and isometric RTD of the quadriceps were assessed in 21 traine...

In this paper, we present a novel technique for modeling, checking, and enforcing temporal constraints in workkow processes containing conditionally executed activities. Existing workkow time model-ing proposals either do not discriminate between time constraints that apply to disparate execution paths, or they treat every execution path independently. Consequently, superruous time constraint v...
