BACKGROUND Shake flasks are widely used during the development of bioprocesses for recombinant proteins. Cultures of recombinant Escherichia coli with orbital mixing (OM) have an oxygen limitation negatively affecting biomass growth and recombinant-protein production. With the aim to improve mixing and aeration in shake flask cultures, we analyzed cultures subjected to OM and the novel resonant...

AbstPactAhfe RAM is RAM which has been made as reliable as a disk. W e coI1sider the problem of buffer management in partially safe buffers, i.e., butlers which contain both safe RAM and volatile RAM. Buffer managemnt techniques for partially safe buffers explicitly consider the safety of memory in deciding which data to place in the buffer, where to place it, and when to copy updaks back to th...

Postembryonic development of plants depends on the activity of apical meristems established during embryogenesis. The shoot apical meristem (SAM) and the root apical meristem (RAM) have similar but distinct cellular organization. Arabidopsis FASCIATA1 (FAS1) and FAS2 genes maintain the cellular and functional organization of both SAM and RAM, and FAS gene products are subunits of the Arabidopsi...

The application of first-principles computational methods to the study of ferroelectric perovskites has greatly expanded our theoretical understanding of this important class of materials. These methods have most recently been applied to an increasingly wide range of ferroelectric materials, with special attention to their lattice dynamics, phase transitions, and dielectric and piezoelectric pr...

Ralph Freese Department of Mathematics University of Hawaii at Manoa Honolulu, Hawaii 96822 In this paper we look at some of the problems on free lattices and free modular lattices which are of an order theoretic nature. We review some of the known results, give same new results, and present several open problems. Every countable partially ordered set can be order embedded into a countable free...

The growth of Online Social Network ing (OSN) has encouraged new ways of communicating and sharing information and is used regularly by millions of people; it now seem s that OSN will be an enduring part of everyday life. The rapid growth of OSN has also resulted in an increase in its use for significant criminal activities and perpetrators are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their attem...
