The HKαα allele is a rearrangement occurring in the α-globin gene cluster containing both the -α(3.7) and ααα(anti4.2) unequal crossover junctions. The anti-HKαα allele is the reciprocal product containing both the -α(4.2) and ααα(anti3.7) unequal crossover junctions, which had been predicted but had not been detected previously. The phenotypic feature and population frequency of these two unus...

Article history: Received 1 August 2011 Accepted 28 October 2011 Available online 29 October 2011 Recently, the economic lot scheduling problem (ELSP) with common cycle time and shelf life restrictions has attracted the attention of several researchers. In this paper, a comparative study of solutions given by Xu and Sarker (2003) [Computers & Operations Research 30 (6), 925938] with the results...

We consider the production of multiple standardized products on a single machine with limited capacity and set-up times under random demands and random production times, i.e., the so-called stochastic economic lot scheduling problem (SELSP). The main task for the production manager in this setting is the construction of a production plan for the machine that minimizes the total costs, i.e., the...

Richard H. Wilson Veterans Administration Medical Center Mountain Home, TN Audibility thresholds for a 1000-Hz sinusoid were measured with a standard clinical (CLIN) procedure and a two-interval, forced-choice (21FC) adaptive procedure bracketing 79% correct. Both used 2and 5-dB step sizes in quiet and in a continuous, broadband noise background. Clinical thresholds were from 2 to 4 dB higher t...
