Abstract American Community Survey (ACS) data have become the workhorse for empirical analysis of segregation in U.S.A. during past decade. The increased frequency ACS offers over 10-year Census, which is main reason its popularity, comes with an level uncertainty published estimates due to reduced sampling ratio (1:40 households) relative Census (1:6 households). This paper introduces a new ap...

In this paper, we consider a generalized the extensible bin packing problem with overload cost, first proposed by Denton et al. [1] in 2010, which total size of items packed into is allowed to exceed its capacity, and cost incurred each equal fixed plus objective minimize all bins. According characteristics problem, propose an improved ant colony optimization algorithm (IACO), enhances positive...

Fetal uninephrectomy (uni-x) at 100 days of gestation results in compensatory nephrogenesis in the remaining kidney, resulting in a 30% reduction in total nephron number in male sheep. Recently, we showed that uni-x males at 6 mo of age have elevated arterial pressure, reduced renal blood flow (RBF), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and low plasma renin levels (Singh R, Denton K, Bertram J, Je...

1. Earlier studies have shown that exposure of fat-cells to insulin results in the rapid increased phosphorylation of an acid-soluble protein which migrates as a doublet on SDS/PAGE with an apparent molecular mass of close to 22 kDa; agents such as isoprenaline, which increase cell concentrations of cyclic AMP, also increase phosphorylation, but to a lesser extent [Belsham, Brownsey, Hughes and...

This study evaluates sediment runoff from gas well development sites in Denton County, Texas. The magnitude of sediment runoff was investigated by intercepting sediment in traps and weirs at the periphery of each gas well site and by measuring the growth of debris lobes that formed down slope from two sites. Four debris lobes formed at one gas well site and one formed at a second site. Debris l...
