Automatic parallelization of C language programs is a subject rarely addressed: this can be explained by the diiculties inherent to the language, such as side eeects within expressions or access to memory via pointers. The method we describe here is based on a semantic analysis of programs. The goal is to detect parallelism in complex programs using pointer arithmetic, thanks to the type system...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a five-week lower limb unilateral or bilateral strength programme on measures of strength, sprinting and change of direction speed. Eighteen academy rugby players (18.1 ± 0.5 years, 97.4 ± 11.3 kg, 183.7 ± 11.3 cm) were randomly assigned to either a unilateral (UNI) or bilateral (BI) group. The UNI group squatted exclusively with the r...

We present an iterative domain decomposition method to solve the Helmholtz equation and related optimal control problems. The proof of convergence of this method relies on energy techniques. This method leads to eecient algorithms for the numerical resolution of harmonic wave propagation problems in heterogeneous media and their control. Une m ethode de d ecomposition de domaine pour l' equatio...

Background This research studies the effects of activation and inhibition of Wnt3A signaling pathway in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) embryonic stem (ES) cell-like cells. MaterialsAndMethods To carry on this experimental study, the effects of activation and inhibition of Wnt3A signaling in buffalo ES cell-like cells were examined using Bio (0.5 mM) combined with WNT3A (200 ng/ml), as an activator, ...

Passive permeabilities of the cell wall and protoplast of Bacillus megaterium strain KM were characterized by use of 50 hydrophilic probing molecules (tritiated water, sugars, dextrans, glycols, and polyglycols) which varied widely in size. Weight per cent uptake values (R(w)) were measured at diffusional equilibrium under conditions that negated the influences of adsorption or active transport...

Within odonates, male mating patterns range from active mate search to long-term territorial defence of oviposition sites. In territorial species, males may use three mating tactics or strategies that may be determined environmentally or genetically: territoriality, non-territoriality, or reversible switches between the two. The tactic exhibited by a male in any given case is determined by the ...
