چکیده
Isozyme characters, exclusive of allozymes (alleles), are potentially useful in phylogenetic investigations. Such data have been derived from the multilocus L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) enzyme system. Among non-avian reptiles, the classes of potential characters include (1) and number of loci encoding LDH, (2) heterotramer patterns, (3) tissue-specific patterns of gene expression, (4) tissue-specific posttranslational modification and (5) reversed relative mobility of the skeletal muscle (Ldh-A) and heart-predominating (Ldh-B) loci. The first three potential characters show variation among the species. However, because of the limited number of alternative states, and evolutionary pathways that variants can follow, it appears that such data will have limited applicability in phylogenetic investigations.

Optimal scheduling in cdma packet radio networks
We consider the time slot assignment problem in a CDMA packet radio network. Unlike the classical TDMA packet radio networks, a CDMA packet radio network can provide each node with a multiple reception capacity using orthogonal codes. This multiple reception capacity of each node presents a new challenge for channel access protocols. Also we consider non-uniform traffic demand over nodes which ...

An isozyme study on the single population of the dioecious, clonal, and rhizomatous plant species Mercurialis ovata in Switzerland was carried out to determine whether small, isolated, outbred populations show low genetic variation, and whether most sexual events within such populations are sibmatings. Although the number of multilocus genotypes was very high (100%), most individuals were close...

Several classes of isozyme characters are recognized including the number of genes that control a given enzyme system, intralocus and interlocus heteropolymer assembly, tissuespecific gene expression, developmental patterns of enzyme expression, and post-translational modification of gene products. All of these characters can be of value in systematic studies although few applications have been...

Ð The connections between economic growth (EG) and human development (HD) form two chains. Crosscountry regressions show a signi®cant relationship in both directions, with public expenditures on health and education, notably female, especially important in the chain from EG to HD; and the investment rate and income distribution signi®cant in the HD to EG chain. This gives rise to virtuous or vi...
متن کاملVariable neighborhood search
Variable neighborhood search (VNS) is a recent metaheuristic for solving combinatorial and global optimization problems whose basic idea is systematic change of neighborhood within a local search. In this survey paper we present basic rules of VNS and some of its extensions. Moreover, applications are briefly summarized. They comprise heuristic solution of a variety of optimization problems, wa...
