The latest version of the CATH-Gene3D protein structure classification database (4.0, http://www.cathdb.info) provides annotations for over 235,000 protein domain structures and includes 25 million domain predictions. This article provides an update on the major developments in the 2 years since the last publication in this journal including: significant improvements to the predictive power of ...

' Duke-Elder' is now the standard reference book on Ophthalmology and has really made many smaller works and even monographs almost redundant. Volume V is of course of the same supreme standard as the former four volumes. Each subject is dealt with exhaustively, the literature is fully reviewed and the writing is in elegant English. The present volume deals with the Ocular Adnexa. Diseases of t...

Ethical misconduct is not a new issue in the history of science and literature. However, ethical misconducts in science have grown considerably in the modern era which is due to emphasis on the scientific proliferation in research institutes and gauging scientists according to their publications. In the current case series, several misconducts occurring over the previous years in Mashhad Univer...

An harmonic lattice theory is used, in conjunction with Mura’s theory of eigendistorsions, to study the structure and energetics of nascent dislocation loops in face-centredcubic (FCC) crystals. An analytical expression for the activation energies of such loops is derived. The results obtained herein indicate that thermal activation of small dislocation loops is possible at high stress levels s...

Fast multiplication can be constructed by combining the tree structure of multiplication's addition, i.e. Wallace tree, with the parallel on-they conversion to have a multiplication without using any carry propagation adder at the end. This parallel on-they conversion speeds up the conversion of redundant binary to conventional binary. With the delay of n 4 , we can have the conversion from red...

We introduce a scheme to simplify a multi-valued network using redundancy removal techniques. Recent methods [1], [2] for binary redundancy removal avoid the use of state traversal. Additionally, [2] finds multiple compatible redundancies simultaneously. We extend these powerful advances in the field of binary redundancy removal to perform redundancy removal for multi-valued networks. First we ...

Dear Editor, I read the recent publication on “Misconduct in Research and Publication” with great interest[1]. I agree that misconduct in research and publication is not uncommon. Nevertheless, it is rarely mentioned. In fact, there are many incorrect conceptions among researchers on publication ethics. The milder examples are attempts to report only the “positive outcomes&rdq...
