The current investigation was carried out to examine how palm anatomy may coincide with the current molecular analysis including the three recognized clades of Syagrus Mart. and to justify the splitting of acaulescent Syagrus species (e.g. Syagrus petraea (Mart.) Becc.) into several species. Free-hand cross-sections of leaflets were made and the comparison of these verifies the relationships su...

SAS Environment Manager is included within the release of SAS 9.4. This exciting new product allows administrators to monitor the performance and operation of their SAS deployments. What very few people are aware of is that the data collected by SAS Environment Manager is stored in a centralized data mart that is designed to help administrators to better understand the behavior and performance ...

The statistic reports about data warehouse project failures state that a major cause lies in the absence of a structured design methodology. In this direction, our research is aimed at defining the basic steps required for a correct design. The goal of this demonstration is to present the main features of WAND, the prototype CASE tool we have implemented to support our methodology. WAND assists...

Four melanoma proteins, MART-1, gp100, tyrosinase, and tyrosinase-related protein-1 (gp75) were evaluated for recognition by HLA-A2-restricted melanoma-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) derived from the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) of 10 different patients. 9 of 10 TIL recognized MART-1, 4 recognized gp100 (including 3 that also recognized MART-1), but none of the TIL recognized t...

In higher education such as university, academic is becoming major asset. The performance of academic has become a yardstick of university performance. Therefore it's important to know the talent of academicians in their university, so that the management can plan for enhancing the academic talent using human resource data. Therefore, this research aims to develop an academic talent model using...

OBJECTIVE Electronic medical records (EMRs) are a rich data source for discovery research but are underutilized due to the difficulty of extracting highly accurate clinical data. We assessed whether a classification algorithm incorporating narrative EMR data (typed physician notes) more accurately classifies subjects with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared with an algorithm using codified EMR d...

Trends in business intelligence, e-commerce and remote access make it necessary and practical to store data in different ways on multiple systems with different operating systems. As business evolve and grow, they require efficient computerized solution to perform data update and to access data from diverse enterprise business applications. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the capa...

Characterization of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) recognized by CTLs makes the consideration of therapeutic strategies based on peptide stimulation of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) feasible. Several such approaches are adoptive transfer of peptide-stimulated PBLs, ex vivo peptide stimulation of dendritic cells, and direct vaccination with TAA-derived peptides. A critical component of a...

This paper measures the relationship between food access and households’ food adult insecurity using two years of Current Population Survey – Food Security Supplement data, matched with MSA-level data on different food outlets (small grocery stores and convenience stores, medium and large grocery stores, convenience stores associated with gas stations and Wal-Mart Supercenters). Endogeneity of ...
