The abundance of supplemental material in The Journal of Experimental Medicine is growing. In the May 2011 issue of JEM, all research papers have a supplement, with an average of 5.9 supplementary items per paper. Only 3 yr ago (May 2008 issue), 16% of JEM papers had no supplementary items, and the overall average was 4.6 items per paper. 3 yr before that (May 2005 issue), 57% of papers had no ...

Dynamic superinstructions and replication can provide large speedups over plain interpretation. In a JVM implementation we have to overcome two problems to realize the full potential of these optimizations: the conflict between superinstructions and the quickening optimization; and the non-relocatability of JVM instructions that can throw exceptions. In this paper, we present solutions for thes...

background and aims. increasing the temperature of sodium hypochlorite (naocl) enhances its dissolution and antibacterial properties. however, the high resistance of multi-species biofilms could restrict the effect of the solution regardless of its temperature, enabling the long-term recovery of the surviving bacteria. the aim of this study was to investigate if the increase of temperature of n...

The limited source of Lithium (Li) as the main material for battery cathodes has become a problem in development new and renewable energy (EBT) sector. Based on their reduction potential availability earth, elements that might be suspected include Potassium (K), Sodium (Na), Magnesium (Mg) Calcium (Ca). All cannot obtained from natural ingredients, one which is blondo. Blondo by-product coconut...

AbstrAct: In this article, we introduce an alternative distribution , namely Esscher transformed Laplace distribution good enough to model the file size distribution of Web servers. It exhibits asymmetry, peakedness and tail heaviness, which are common features of file size data. Esscher transformed Laplace distribution belongs to one parameter regular exponential family. We derive their repres...
