Maximum Profit Feed Formulation 3. Interaction Between Energy Content and Temperature

the use of nonlinear programming in diet formulation based on maximum profit in broiler chicks

linear programming is a helpful and applied method for diet formulation based on minimum cost, but the minimum cost does not always mean maximum profit. this study was carried out to introduce a new diet formulation method based upon maximum profit to be replaced for minimum cost method. a total of 400 one-day-old broiler chicks (ross 308) were employed in the study. all broilers were fed simil...

Leptin action is modified by an interaction between dietary fat content and ambient temperature.

Mice adapted to a high-fat diet are reported to be leptin resistant; however, we previously reported that mice fed a high-fat (HF) diet and housed at 23 degrees C remained sensitive to peripheral leptin and specifically lost body fat. This study tested whether leptin action was impaired by a combination of elevated environmental temperature and a HF diet. Male C57BL/6 mice were adapted to low-f...

Templating Wiki Content for Fun and Profit

Content templating enables reuse of content structures between wiki pages. Such a feature is implemented in several mainstream wiki engine. Systematic study of its conceptual models and comparison of the available implementations are unfortunately missing in the wiki literature. In this paper we aim to fill this gap first analyzing template-related user needs, and then reviewing existing approa...

Maximum Profit Wavelength Assignment in WDM Rings

Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a dominating technology in contemporary all-optical networking. It allows several connections to be established through the same fiber links, provided that each of the connections uses a different wavelength. A second requirement is that a connection must use the same wavelength from one end to the other in order to avoid the use of wavelength converter...
