The NIST Automated Computer Time Service (ACTS) is a telephone time service designed to provide computers with telephone access to time generated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology at accuracies approaching 1 ms. Features of the service include automated estimation by the transmitter of the telephone-line delay, advanced alert for changes to and from daylight saving time, and...

The system developed by Särelä et al. (2003) [6] consists mainly in a wearable device and a base station, installed at the user ́s home, to monitor the user ́s movements. The wearable device collects activity data and sends it to the base station, which can synchronize the data with a dedicated server through a wired public telephone line or send alert messages to a caregiver. The target populati...

Mammalian homologues of two important yeast genes involved in DNA double-strand break repair and recombination, RAD51 and RAD54, have been isolated. Knock-out mutations of the genes in mice reveal both reassuring similarities to, and surprising differences from, the analogous mutant phenotypes in yeast.

New protocols, such as RSVP, use control datagrams which, while addressed to a particular destination, contain information that needs to be examined, and in some case updated, by routers along the path between the source and destination. It is desirable to forward regular datagrams as rapidly as possible, while ensuring that the router processes these special control datagrams appropriately. Cu...

Postoperative infection in liposuction patients may be exceedingly difficult to clinically appreciate because of the skin edema, colour changes and even blistering that can occur. The authors outline such a case with practical advice about establishing an accurate and precise diagnosis of an early septic process.

Correlating alerts is of importance for identifying complex attacks and discarding false alerts. Most popular alert correlation approaches employ some well-defined knowledge to uncover the connections among alerts. However, acquiring, representing and justifying such knowledge has turned out to be a nontrivial task. In this paper, we propose a novel method to work around these difficulties by u...

Next Generation Air Traac Management will allow for the possibility of free ight, in which each aircraft chooses its own optimal route, altitude and speed. In a free ight environment, the trajectories of several aircraft may be connicting, in which case aircraft may or may not cooperate in resolving the connict. This paper presents a method for noncooperative connict resolution in which each ai...

Background Prognosis research is on the rise, its importance recognised because chronic health conditions and diseases are increasingly common and costly. Prognosis systematic reviews are needed to collate and synthesise these research findings, especially to help inform effective clinical decision-making and healthcare policy. A detailed, comprehensive search strategy is central to any systema...

Cleaning the dustbin is an important process which has to be done at regular basis but due to the inconsistency in the filling of waste, sometimes it gets overflowed even before the next cleaning process arrives. It is also observed that the garbage gets accumulated due to irregular removal of garbage present in the dustbin. Here we have figured out a new model for the municipal dustbins which ...

Fungal genome initiative http://www.broad.mit.edu/node/304 This website provides information relevant to genomic data for fungi that are of interest because of their role in human or plant disease and for industrial processing. Genomic explorations of hemiascomycete yeasts http://cbi.labri.fr/Genolevures/ A research consortium maintains this website that deals with one specific fungal class. Th...
