UNLABELLED The National Academy of Agricultural Science (NAAS) has developed a web-based database to provide characterization information in silkworm. The silkworm database has four major function menus: variety searching, characterization viewing, general information and photo gallery. It provides 321 silkworm varieties characterization information for six different regions namely, Korean, Jap...

We provide space-efficient linear time algorithms for computing bridges, topological sorting, and strongly connected components improving on several recent results of Elmasry et al. [STACS’15], Banerjee et al. [COCOON’16] and Chakraborty et al. [ISAAC’16]. En route, we also provide another DFS implementation with weaker input graph representation assumption without compromising on the time and ...

An abdominal cocoon is an extremely rare condition, and has been reported mainly in young adolescent women as a cause of small bowel obstruction. In these patients, the small bowel is encased in a fibrous sac called an abdominal cocoon. We hereby present two cases who were diagnosed only by laparotomy and their correlation with the literature. They both received early intervention, thus prevent...

Some ichneumonid wasps induce modifications in the web building behavior of their spider hosts to produce resistant "cocoon" webs. These structures hold and protect the wasp's cocoon during pupa development. The mechanism responsible for host manipulation probably involves the inoculation of psychotropic chemicals by the parasitoid larva during a specific developmental period. Recent studies in...

The abdominal cocoon is a rare disease that is characterized by total or partial encasement of the small bowel by a thick and fibrotic membrane. After an increased number of case reports, the characteristic age group and sex distribution of abdominal cocoon have changed. Although the etiology is unknown, congenital malformation is implicated as the causative factor in the two patients in this r...

The paper starts by giving concise introductions into the terminological logic FRM and the object data model COCOON. It then brieey outlines a semantic-preserving mapping from FRM class descriptions to COCOON types and classes and shows how the terminological inference of classiica-tion is mapped to a set of equivalent COCOON queries. Since these queries can (mostly) be submitted as a whole to ...
