In genetic diagnostics, the emergence of a so-called "patent thicket" is imminent. Such an overlapping set of patent rights may have restrictive effects on further research and development of diagnostic tests, and the provision of clinical diagnostic services. Currently, two models that may facilitate access to and use of patented genetic inventions are attracting much debate in various nationa...

Light sources of the next generation such as ERLs require minimal beam losses as well as a stable beam position and small emittance over time. Instabilities caused by ionized residual gas have to be avoided. In this paper we present simulations of the behavior of ionized residual gas in the field of clearing electrodes and investigate e. g. clearing times. For these simulations we apply MOEVE P...

This study examines the records executives framework for inside and clearing units at PT. Bank Syariah Indonesia KC S. Parman. The motivation behind this paper is (1) to portray how unit document board Kc Parman(2) depicts limitations looked during time spent recording Parman(3) portrays endeavors made defeat obstructions in system of Homegrown Clearing Information was gathered through percepti...

The problem of market clearing in an economy is that of finding prices such that supply meets demand. In this work, we propose a kernel method to compute nonlinear clearing prices for instances where linear prices do not suffice. We first present a procedure that, given a sample of values and costs for a set of bundles, implicitly computes nonlinear clearing prices by solving an appropriately f...

* [email protected], [email protected] (only before June 3, 1999) Abstract This paper presents DC clearing field to clear ions in vacuum pipe of Hefei ring. It also presents changes of focusing structure parameters caused by the clearing field. It concludes that tune shifts caused by the field are related to real-time close orbit of the beam. The paper points out that the field as...

We study the interval subset sum problem (ISSP), a generalization of the classic subset-sum problem, where given a set of intervals, the goal is to choose a set of integers, at most one from each interval, whose sum best approximates a target integer T . For the cardinality constrained interval subset-sum problem (kISSP), at least kmin and at most kmax integers must be selected. Our main result...

We consider variations on the classic video game Tetris where pieces are k-ominoes instead of the usual tetrominoes (k = 4), as popularized by the video games ntris and Pentris. We prove that it is NP-complete to survive or clear a given initial board with a given sequence of pieces for each k ≥ 5, complementing the previous NP-completeness result for k = 4. More surprisingly, we show that boar...

This paper analyzes the question whether traders learn to coordinate on a trading institution that guarantees market clearing, or whether other market institutions can survive in the long run. While we find that the market clearing institution is indeed always stable under a general class of learning dynamics, it turns out that also other, non-market clearing institutions are stable. Hence, in ...
