A Unified Modeling Language (UML) description of the BSP model of parallel computation is presented. This UML description identifies BSP classes and objects and specifies various object and inter-object relationships, dependencies, and behaviors. This was achieved by describing various views of the BSP model using many of the UML structural and behavioral diagrams. The use to the UML to describ...

Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a secreted glycoprotein found in mineralized tissues however, BSP is aberrantly expressed in a variety of osteotropic tumors. Elevated BSP expression in breast and prostate primary carcinomas is directly correlated with increased bone metastases and tumor progression. In this study, the intracellular signaling pathways responsible for BSP-induced migration and tumor s...

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) subscribes to the Forecasting and Policy Analysis System (FPAS) as framework for macroeconomic forecasting analysis in support of monetary policy formulation. FPAS is a standard framework, adopted by many in"ation-targeting central banks, that organizes generation, consolidation, economic information relavant This paper aims describe how forecasts simulatio...

Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a noncoflagenous bone matrix protein that is important for both mineralization and cell-cell interactions. Tissue studies in primary breast cancers have shown that immunohistochemical expression of BSP is associated with a high incidence of bone metastases in the course of the disease. We used a RIA to investigate the importance of serum BSP as a marker for subsequent...

Microcalcifications are often associated with human mammary lesions, particularly with breast carcinomas. To date, the molecular mechanism that leads to the deposition of hydroxyapatite in the mammary tissue has not been elucidated. Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a glycoprotein the expression of which coincides with the appearance of the first hydroxyapatite crystals during bone development. In thi...

THE Bromsulphaleimm (BSP) test of Rosenthal ammd White (1) has undergone several modifications (2) imi the 40 years following its introduction. Like most drugs, BSP is removed from blood plasma at a rate which is proportional to its concentratiomi, that is, a first-order reactiomi (3). As would be expected for a first-order reaction, a graph of In (BSP) or log (BSP) vs. time results iii a strai...

For the past three decades, much attention has been focused on developing diversity programs designed to improve the academic success of underrepresented minorities, primarily in mathematics, science, and engineering. However, ethnic minorities remain underrepresented in science majors and careers. Over the last 10 years, the Biology Scholars Program (BSP), a diversity program at the University...

The mammalian growth plate is a dynamic structure rich in extracellular matrix (ECM). Interactions of growth plate chondrocytes with ECM proteins regulate cell behavior. In this study, we compared chondrocyte adhesion and spreading dynamics on fibronectin (FN) and bone sialoprotein (BSP). Chondrocyte adhesion and spreading were also compared with fibroblasts to analyze potential cell-type-speci...

We deene a small BSP-based language, that is simpler and more exible than standard BSP. Its composition rules allow supersteps to be composed sequentially and in parallel, so it is a subset-synchronising language. We give a cost-neutral transformation of BSP to miniBSP, showing how it can be used to compile BSP for clustered architectures. miniBSP also show that BSP can be regarded as one end o...
