Genetic and biological aspects of Zebu adaptability.
The utility and documentation of traits and characteristics of Zebu, Bos indicus, cattle in beef production in the United States are discussed with reference to adaptation. Zebu cattle are uniquely suited to hot climates due to coat, hide, skin and hematological attributes. Form, growth and physiological aspects are unique genetic attributes which are different from those of Bos taurus cattle. ...
متن کاملRandom Search versus Genetic Programming as Engines for Collective Adaptation
We have integrated the distributed search of genetic programming (GP) based systems with collective memory to form a collective adaptation search method. Such a system signiicantly improves search as problem complexity is increased. Since the pure GP approach does not scale well with problem complexity, a natural question is which of the two components is actually contributing to the search pro...
متن کاملGenetic Robustness and Adaptability of Viruses
B iodiversity reflects billions of years of adaptation through natural selection, whereby environments help to determine which genetic variants in a population persist. This process leads some individuals in a population to possess traits that prove beneficial in a particular niche and can help to distinguish them from other organisms residing there or elsewhere. Although evolution is defined a...
متن کاملAttention enhances adaptability: evidence from motion adaptation experiments
Several previous psychophysical and neurophysiological studies have investigated the separate effects of attention and adaptation on visual processing. Here, we investigated the combined effects of attention and adaptation on motion processing by measuring the effects of spatial attention on the duration of the motion after-effect (MAE) over a wide range of stimulus contrasts. MAE duration was ...
متن کاملAdaptability metric for adaptation of the dynamic changes
Adapting dynamic changes in the user needs or in the environment is considered as one of the important quality attributes of a system in the pervasive or ubiquitous environment. An aspect-oriented framework to modularize the dynamic changes using aspects is considered as a solution for creating dynamic adaptable systems. This framework allows the system to reflect the dynamic changes on the ass...
