The RT1.A locus of the rat MHC encodes the H chain of the single classical class I molecule of this species. One of the alleles of this polymorphic locus, RT1.Aa, is present in several laboratory inbred, congenic, and MHC recombinant rat strains. Studies of the RT1.Aa class I molecule from a number of these strains as a target for CTL show that its antigenicity, both as an alloantigen and a res...

This paper presents an approach for ontology-based IT management based on a heavyweight (formal) ontology using the Web Ontology Language (OWL). The ontology comprises a complete OWL representation of the Common Information Model (CIM) and management rules defined in the Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL). The ontology not only models the managed system types, but a runtime system dynamically up...

Cytoplasmic incompatibility results in embryo mortality in diploids, or all male offspring in haplodiploids, when individuals carrying different cytoplasmic factors are crossed. Cytoplasmic factors have been identified as intracellular micro-organisms. Microbe-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility is found in many insect taxa and may play a role in reproductive isolation between populations. Such...

Twenty four new strains were tested for their yield, quality and Leaf Curl Virus (ClCuV) resistance. NIAB-111/S, NIAB-98 and NIAB-999 were significantly high fruit bearing varieties at 90 days completing 59.54, 48.26 and 46.00% fruiting respectively. Seed cotton yield of VH-142 was highest with 5417 kgha-1 and 52 per plant boll bearing, DNH-57 and NIAB-999 remained second and third with 5234 an...

For meters of angular coordinates pulse-Doppler tracking radar escort that implement the method amplitude instantaneous comparison radio signals, a methodology for synthesis algorithm diversion combined imitating and masking jamming (CIM) has been developed. The calculation comparative analysis errors evaluating air target CIM-jamming when choosing as sources veil information: retaliatory noise...

Powder injection molding (PIM), which encompasses metal injection molding (MIM) and ceramic injection molding (CIM), is a net-shaping process which enables large scale production of complex-shaped components for use in a diverse range of industries. It combines plastic injection molding techniques and performance attributes of ceramic and metal powders. Ceramic injection molding (CIM) uses cera...

OBJECTIVE This paper presents a multiple perspectives model of clinical information system implementation, the CONTEXTual Implementation Model (CIM). Although other implementation models have been developed, few are grounded in data and others fail to take adequate account of the clinical environment and users' requirements. DESIGN The CIM arose from qualitative data collected from four clini...

In this work, source equivalence and computation of the reflected (induced) electromagnetic field in geophysical situations are studied. It is shown that the application of Huygens’ principle allows for full generalization of Fukushima’s equivalence theorem that applies only for magnetic field. The source equivalence is revisited for a vertical line current element, and it is shown that the equ...
