Intracoronary brachytherapy: time to sell short?
The introduction of innovative new devices and drugs has been a major influence in the dissemination of catheter-based coronary revascularization procedures into clinical practice. Systematic appraisals of effectiveness have typically come only after regulatory approval and widespread clinical acceptance. Consideration of the potential economic implications of these technologies, if performed a...
متن کاملChimps ape man
“Researchers have for the first time taught apes how to speak. Two animals, a pygmy chimp and an orang-utan, have been able to hold conversations with humans.” The report in the Sunday Times on 25 July was crystal clear, its unambiguity strengthened by the headline: “Scientists teach chimpanzees to speak English.” (What next?

It was first observed in the US, where highly industrialised bee-keeping practices mean that colonies are shipped across the continent to work large areas of a single crop. But whether this stress or other factors are resp...
متن کاملLLVM-CHiMPS: Compilation Environment for FPGAs Using LLVM Compiler Infrastructure and CHiMPS Computational Model
CHiMPS (Compiling High level language to Massively Pipelined System) system, developed by Xilinx is gaining popularity due to its convenient computational model and architecture for field programmable gate array computing. The CHiMPS system utilizes CHiMPS target language as an intermediate representation to bridge between the high level language and the data flow architecture generated from it...
