Aflatoxin, a potent hepatotoxin, causes rapid inhibition of RNA polymerase activity in isolated rat liver nuclei. Its hepatotoxicity is accompanied by an injury of periportal parenchymal cells. Rats fed a diet marginally deficient in choline are protected against the acutely toxic action of aflatoxin B! . This diet does not prevent the rapid inhibition of RNA polymerase or the changes in nucleo...

Distributed computing systems which rely on message passing for communication between computers, require low latency in the communications network in order to be eeective. The multichannel ring network was previously proposed as a local area network topol-ogy for use in such distributed systems. In this paper we describe how wormhole routing can be used in the multichannel ring to decrease the ...

The paper demonstrates that product configuration applications fit naturally the framework of answer set programming. It is shown that product configuration knowledge can be represented systematically and compactly using a logic program type rule language such that the answers of a configuration task, the configurations, correspond to the models of the rule representation.. The paper pr.es.~nts...

The current status and needs of thermal biology and physiol ogy as related to clinical hyperthermia are summarized. Empha sis is placed on heat-induced modification of blood flow and microenvironment in tissues, on the biological effects of heat and X-rays, and on the relationship between drug resistance, heat resistance, and thermotolerance in thermochemotherapy. Re sults from recent studies i...
