This paper describes our new multiple-camera architecture for real-time video analysis. This architecture uses an array of relatively inexpensive cameras to gather images in order to provide high resolution at low cost. The system also uses a hierarchy of cameras, including both wide-angle and telephoto views. Wide-angle cameras are responsible for camera coordination while telephoto cameras ar...

abstract phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, encoded by the pepck gene, plays an important role in gluconeogenesis. it also seems to be important in metabolism of nitrogenous compounds in developing seeds of legumes, including amides and ureides which are then transformed into amino acids, necessary for the synthesis of storage proteins. in this research, pepck gene expression in mrna level, in ...

background and objective: chlorella vulgaris is a multi-cellular edible algal species with abundant proteins. extraction of high value protein fractions for pharmaceutical and nutritional applications can significantly increase the commercial value of microalga biomasses. there is no known report on the anticancer peptides derived from the chlorella vulgaris abundant protein. materials and meth...

Target-based high-throughput screening (HTS) has recently been critiqued for its relatively poor yield compared to phenotypic screening approaches. One type of phenotypic screening, image-based high-content screening (HCS), has been seen as particularly promising. In this article, we assess whether HCS is as high content as it can be. We analyze HCS publications and find that although the numbe...

Configuration design deals with the composition of artifacts from a predefined catalog of components over a wide variety of application domains (architecture, telecommunications systems, civil engineering, control software, etc.). Recent years have seen various attempts to work towards a high-level, formal representation of configuration problems with the goal of providing a stable platform on ...

high solid content poly (styrene-co-butyl acrylate) latex ( with 20% and 40% solid content) including high amounts of cloisite 30b (7 wt% and 10 wt%) were kinetically investigated. gravimetric method via measuring the rate of polymerization, number of particles and average number of radicals per particle was used. results showed that by increasing the solid content; the average diameter of poly...

Reducing dietary protein content in fish feeds will reduce cost of production if growth performance can be maintained. In this study, we assessed the effects of reduced dietary protein content from 33.5% to 27.4% with ideal amino acids profile on the growth, immune parameters, intestinal microvilli length and total ammonia nitrogen discharge of tilapia. After 8 weeks of feeding, growth performa...

Four treatments were assigned to determine the effects of dietary potential digestible fiber (pdF) and crude protein (CP) levels in mid lactating Holstein cows on milk production and nitrogen efficiency. Sixteen primiparous (n=8) and multiparous (n=8) Holstein cows (body weight (BW)=546±72 kg; days in milk (DIM)=118±50 day) were allocated to one of four diets in balanced randomized complete des...
