A function which transforms a continuous random variable such that it has specified distribution is called replicating function. We suppose functions may be assigned price, and study an optimization problem in the cheapest approximation to sought. Under suitable regularity conditions, including bound on entropy of set candidate approximations, we show optimal comes close achieving distributiona...

Abstract - One of the important problems in grid environments is data replication in grid sites. Reliability and availability of data replication in some cases is considered low. To separate sites with high reliability and high availability of sites with low availability and low reliability, clustering can be used. In this study, the data grid dynamically evaluate and predict the condition of t...

Abstract Phosphorylated H2A.X is a critical chromatin marker of DNA damage repair (DDR) in higher eukaryotes. However, gene expression remains relatively uncharacterised. Replication-dependent (RD) histone genes generate poly(A)- mRNA encoding new histones to package during replication. In contrast, replication-independent (RI) synthesise poly(A)+ throughout the cell cycle, translated into vari...

Abstract Replication is a research methodology designed to verify, consolidate, and generalize knowledge understanding within empirical fields of study. In second language studies, however, reviews share widespread concern about the infrequency replication. A common but speculative explanation for this situation that replication studies are not valued because they lack originality and/or innova...

Replications are an integral part of cumulative experimental science. Yet many scientific disciplines do not replicate much because novel confirmatory findings valued over direct replications. To provide a systematic assessment the replication landscape in linguistics, present study estimated rates for 50,000 articles across 98 journals. We used automatic string matching using Web Science combi...

Abstract The role or function of experimental and observational replication within empirical science has implications for how should be measured. Broadly, there seems to consensus that replication’s central goal is confirm vouchsafe the reliability scientific findings. I argue if this correct, then most measures used in literature are actually poor indicators confirmation. Only meta-analytic al...

Abstract Chromosomal instability (CIN) is a hallmark of cancer and contributes to tumorigenesis tumor progression. While structural CIN (S-CIN) leads chromosome aberrations, whole (W-CIN) defined by perpetual gains or losses chromosomes during mitosis causing aneuploidy. Mitotic defects, but also abnormal DNA replication (replication stress) can lead W-CIN. However, the functional link between ...

Replication is a key activity in scientific endeavors. Yet explicit replications are rare many fields, including education and psychology. In this article, we discuss the relevance value of replication educational psychology analyze challenges regarding role can should play research. These include philosophical, methodological, professional, utility concerns about social sciences more broadly. ...
