The study presents the climatological characteristics of stratospheric ozone observed over Reunion Island using in-situ (ozonesonde and SAOZ) and satellite (UARSHALOE, SAGE-II and TOMS) measurements. It uses colocalised ozonesondes (from September 1992 to February 2005) and SAOZ measurements (from January 1993 to December 2004), SAGE-II data from October 1984 to February 1999 (∼15 years), HALOE...

Abstract The control strategy of electric vehicles mainly depends on the power battery state-of-charge estimation. One most important issues is lithium-ion (SOC) Compare with extended Kalman filter algorithm, this paper proposed a novel adaptive square root together Thevenin equivalent circuit model which can solve problem filtering divergence caused by computer rounding errors. It uses Sage-Hu...

In this paper we present a method for clustering SAGE (Serial Analysis of Gene Expression) data to detect similarities and dissimilarities between different types of cancer on the subcellular level. The data, however, is extremely high dimensional, and due to the method of measurement, there are many errors as well as missing values in the data, challenging any clustering algorithm. Therefore, ...

In a previous study, the drinking of a Salvia officinalis tea (prepared as an infusion) for 14 days improved liver antioxidant status in mice and rats where, among other factors, an enhancement of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity was observed. Taking in consideration these effects, in the present study the potential protective effects of sage tea drinking against a situation of hepatoto...

This paper describes Sage, a research project in software engineering for (fault-tolerant) distributed applications that assists programmers write correct, eecient code. Speciically, Sage uses the modal logic of knowledge and applies theoretical results detailing how processes learn facts about each other's state to derive the minimal communication graph for a given distributed coordination pro...

Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was applied to the malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum to characterize the comprehensive transcriptional profile of erythrocytic stages. A SAGE library of approximately 8335 tags representing 4866 different genes was generated from 3D7 strain parasites. Basic local alignment search tool analysis of high abundance SAGE tags revealed that a majority (...

Mortality due to infectious diseases is seldom reported in the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). A case of necrotic enteritis associated with Clostridium perfringens type A is described in a free-ranging adult male sage-grouse in eastern Oregon. Clostridial enteritis is known to cause outbreaks of mortality in various domestic and wild birds, and should be considered as a potenti...

Sage (Salvia) species are the largest members of Lamiaceae or mint family [1,2]. Many species of salvia are native to Mediterranean region [3]. Sage family members especially common sage (Salvia officinalis) have been used traditionally throughout the world as a remedy for the treatment of many common ailments such as, cough, asthma, bronchitis, angina, mouth and throat inflammations, depressio...

We present an algorithm for Totally Ordered Broadcast in the face of net work partitions and process failures using an underlying group communi cation service as a building block The algorithm always allows a majority or quorum of connected processes in the network to make progress i e to order messages if they remain connected for su ciently long regard less of past failures Furthermore the al...

The improved-search-and-initialization spacealternating generalized expectation-maximization (ISI-SAGE) algorithm is proposed in [1] and [2] for joint estimation of the relative delay, the direction (i.e. azimuth and co-elevation) of departure, the direction of arrival, the Doppler frequency (DF) as well as the complex weight of the propagation paths from the transmitter (Tx) site to the receiv...
