Computational grid has a promising future in large-scale computing, because it enables the sharing of widely distributed computing resources. Good managements with excellent scheduling algorithms are in great demand to take full advantage of it. Many scheduling algorithms in grid computing are for independent tasks. However, communications are very common in scientific computing programs. In th...

This paper provides a critical assessment of the Sustainable Governance Indicators (SGI) and compares it with other prominent indices that address specific components governance: V-Dem, WGI, BTI. We offer comparative content validity these governance measures, their data generation processes, convergent validity. conclude SGI’s most important contribution is conceptualization policy performance...

We have determined the nucleotide sequence of a 2375-base-pair DNA fragment, which contained the sporulation gene spo0A cloned from Bacillus subtilis. The sequence had only one long open reading frame consisting of 239 codons, which was found to correspond to the spo0A gene by comparing the nucleotide sequence of the wild-type gene with those of the mutant alleles. The calculated molecular weig...

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that regulates gene expression by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). Inhibition of DNMTs is a promising approach for cancer therapy. Recently, novel classes of the quinolone-based compound, SGI-1027, and RG108-procainamide conjugates, CBC12, have been identified as potent DNMT inhibitors. In this work, we report comprehensive studies using induced-fit ...

The services of general interest (SGI) hold an important place in relation to the European model society, referring functions and objectives that are essential for implementation fundamental citizen rights accomplishment economic, social territorial cohesion goals. SGI reflect obligation public authorities provide them at certain standards terms quality, availability, accessibility affordabilit...

Stormwater Green Infrastructure (SGI) systems such as rain gardens, permeable pavement and bioswales are commonly used in municipalities to reduce urban flooding water pollution. In conjunction with these direct benefits, SGI provide additional social environmental “co-benefits”. Our goal was investigate the co-benefits of five cities United States, including Baltimore, Denver, New York City, P...
