Abstract Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip technologies are the primary SNP genotyping used today. However, these have some drawbacks that limit their usefulness in analysis. We developed a robust protocol called multiplexed (GMS) using markers, providing informative genotypic data with greater flexibility. The genotypes derived from direct sequence re...

The complexity of power systems is increasing as new generating units are added to in order supply the growing economies. This has resulted further research into generator maintenance scheduling (GMS) problem which seeks ensure optimal preventive that effective and reliable. focused on developing a schedule using tri-objective model. GMS model solved two solution methodologies. first an exact m...

Recently, the Meyer wavelet packets transform (MWPT), the harmonic wavelet transform (HWT), and the S-transform have been used to process recorded earthquake induced strong ground motions (GMs) in various earthquake engineering and engineering seismology applications. In this paper, the potential of these three wavelet-based time-frequency representation (TFR) techniques to identify and to char...

OBJECTIVE To examine the prevalence and secular trends in benzodiazepine (BZD) prescribing in the Irish paediatric population. In addition, we examine coprescribing of antiepileptic, antipsychotic, antidepressant and psychostimulants in children receiving BZD drugs and compare BZD prescribing in Ireland to that in other European countries. SETTING Data were obtained from the Irish General Med...

OBJECTIVES This study presents a procedure allowing the numerical synthesis of exposure data reported in different ways in the literature, including summary parameters and single measurements. The procedure was applied to literature regarding formaldehyde exposure in the reconstituted wood panels industry, including oriented-strand board (OSB), medium density fibre board (MDF) and particle boar...
