T information technology (IT) governance literature predominantly explains firms’ IT governance choices, but not their strategic consequences. We develop the idea that a firm’s IT governance choices induce adeptness at strategically exploiting IT only when they are discriminatingly aligned with its departments’ knowledge outside their specialty. Discriminating means that governing the two under...

A common problem in morphometric studies is to determine whether, and in what ways, two or more previously established groups of organisms differ. Discrimination of predefined groups is a very different problem than trying to characterize the patterns of morphological variation among individuals, and so the kinds of morphometric tools used for these two kinds of questions differ. In this paper ...

MOTIVATION Tissue-specific transcription factor binding sites give insight into tissue-specific transcription regulation. RESULTS We describe a word-counting-based tool for de novo tissue-specific transcription factor binding site discovery using expression information in addition to sequence information. We incorporate tissue-specific gene expression through gene classification to positive e...

We address the issue of discrimination between two-qubit amplitude damping channels by exploring several strategies. For single-shot, we show that excited state does not always give optimal input, and side entanglement assistance has limited benefit. On contrary, feedback from environment is more beneficial. two-shot, prove in-utility entangled inputs. Then focusing on individual (local) measur...

BACKGROUND Our quantitative proteomic study showed that selenium-binding protein 1 (SELENBP1) was progressively decreased in human bronchial epithelial carcinogenic process. However, there is little information on expression and function of SELENBP1 during human lung squamous cell cancer (LSCC) carcinogenesis. METHODS iTRAQ-tagging combined with 2D LC-MS/MS analysis was used to identify diffe...
