Up until now, we have mainly studied how to decrease the query time, and the preprocessing time of our data structures. In this lecture, we will focus on maintaining the data as compactly as possible. Our goal will be to get as close the information theoretic optimum as possible. We will refer to this optimum as OPT. Note that most ”linear space” data structures we have seen are still far from ...

The goal of this study was to provide a reasonable assessment of how probe substrate selection may impact the results of in vitro aldehyde oxidase (AO) inhibition experiments. Here, we used a previously studied set of seven known AO inhibitors to probe the inhibition profile of a pharmacologically relevant substrate N-[(2dimethylamino)ethyl]acridine-4-carboxamide (DACA). DACA oxidation in human...

I apologize both to Jane Fountain and to my fellow workshop participants for the lateness of this memo, which reflects both an overwrought end-of-semester schedule and a certain diffidence stemming from my lack of expertise in the topic of the workshop. My own empirical research on digital technologies has dealt with how typical Americans – that is, the cross-section of folks that a well design...

The health care environment was once regarded as safe and secure for patients and staff. Turmoil and change have pervaded the U.S. health care system since the 1980s, contributing to a state of chaos and instability. Today’s health care work environment can therefore be characterized as turbulent—it is in a state of unrest, disturbance, agitation, or commotion. There are many sources of turbule...

Numerous studies have demonstrated a correlation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) overexpression with the prognosis of various kinds of cancer. The current study investigated whether the expression of MMPs is correlated with the prognosis of osteosarcoma. Expression levels of MMP-2, -9, MT1-MMP and TIMP-2 were examined immunohistochemically in samples from 47 patients with osteosarcoma. Correl...
