Summary Shifting from a livestock‐based protein diet to plant‐based has been proposed as an essential requirement maintain global food sustainability, which requires the increased production of protein‐rich crops for direct human consumption. Meanwhile, lack sufficient genetic diversity in crop varieties is increasing concern sustainable supplies. Countering this clear understanding domesticati...

Matrix factorization functions are used in many areas and often play an important role the overall performance of applications. In LAPACK library, matrix implemented with blocked algorithm, shifting most workload to high-performance Level-3 BLAS functions. But non-blocked part, panel factorization, becomes bottleneck, especially for small- medium-size matrices that common cases real On new Sunw...

public accountability is a sign of modern and democratic administration. accountability has become a topic of concern in governance literature. the question of holding politicians and administration accountable in new governance environment, where many traditional means for controlling government have been no longer fully applied, has gained wide recognition. as a consequence, new types of acco...

many procedures suggest for reduction of responses of riser to vortex induced vibrations (viv). natural frequencies of marine risers is an important parameter that can affect the responses of riser to viv. change of riser properties such as top tension and bending stiffness can alter natural frequencies. in this study effects of riser specifications on the responses and fatigue damage of marine...

No organism lives in a constant environment. Based on classical studies in molecular biology, many have viewed microbes as following strict rules for shifting their metabolic activities when prevailing conditions change. For example, students learn that the bacterium Escherichia coli makes proteins for digesting lactose only when lactose is available and glucose, a better sugar, is not. However...
