The thread-level speculation paradigm parallelizes sequential applications at run-time, via optimistic execution of potentially independent threads. This enables unmodified sequential applications to exploit thread-level parallelism on modern multicore architectures. However a high frequency of data dependence violations between speculative threads can severely degrade the performance of thread...

I our first article, Joseph B. Kadane discusses “Partial-Kelly Strategies and Expected Utility: Small-Edge Asymptotics.” The next article is by Konstantinos V. Katsikopoulos, on “Psychological Heuristics for Making Inferences: Definition, Performance, and the Emerging Theory and Practice.” We then move to papers analyzing strategic national defense. In our third article, David J. Caswell, Ronal...

Isokinetic assessment of elite squash, tennis and track athletes confirms the accepted ratio of 60 to 80 per cent hamstring to quadriceps when testing at 90 deg-sec-1 for peak strength (torque). However, significant variations occur at higher test speeds up to 300 deg.sec-1 with the hamstrings becoming more prominent especially (p less than 0.001) in the nonpreferred (NP) leg. There was no sign...

Halosulfuron is a proposed alternative to methyl bromide for managing nutsedges (Cyperus spp.) in several vegetable crops, including cucurbits. Field studies were conducted to evaluate the crop sensitivity to halosulfuron in a spring squash (Cucurbita pepo L.)—fall cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) rotation from 2000 to 2002. Treatments included application of halosulfuron to the soil surface after...

Aims: During a disease survey conducted in 2019, typical symptoms including yellowing of the leaves, stunting, shortening internodes, proliferation auxiliary shoots (witches'-broom), bunchy appearance growth at ends stems (rosetting), virescence flowers or sterility, phyllody, small and deformed leaves fasciation were observed on suspected cucurbit plants growing Hatay province. Therefore, this...

In this article, the results of research on cultivation patty pan squash in climatic conditions Uzbekistan, Planting for different periods and its growth, development, yield, as well impact weather were presented. Squash is a one-year plant family zucchini, mainly shrub, rarely found form whip. The showed that average yield “White-13” control was 16 tons/ha, it 17 tons/ha “Solnyshko”. Furthermo...

We present the first complete Australian Squash mosaic virus (SqMV) genome sequences. We compared the 2 Australian genomes from 20-year-old cucurbit samples with 8 other SqMV genomes. The Australian genomes shared >99.0% nucleotide identities, and their RNA1 and RNA2 sequences most closely resembled isolates Y and Kimbe from Japan, respectively.
