The concentration of gross energy in distillers dried grain with solubles (DDGS) is greater than in corn. However, because of a lower digestibility of energy in DDGS than in corn, there is no difference in the concentration of digestible and metabolizable energy between DDGS and corn. The apparent and standardized ileal digestibility of amino acids in DDGS does vary among sources but, with the ...

The strategy to send data in high speed bursts has been observed to be useful for energy-efficient communication of wireless applications. In this paper we investigate how to apply this approach to peer-to-peer (P2P) content sharing. Our main focus is on battery savings that can be achieved by properly shaping the traffic at the application level. Our primary target is BitTorrent based content ...

During human evolutionary history, and for many around the world, breast milk is the primary source of nutritional energy for infants. Variation in breast milk quality might logically have important effects on infant health, growth, and development, yet the sources of this variation remain largely unelucidated. We quantified nutrient and energy content of breast milk from 25 healthy, well-nouri...

sludge, which is produced as a by-product of all treatment processes, has considerable potential as a fertilizer and soil conditioner. many authorities now discharge the sludge after treatment directly to agricultural land in liquid form, while some others dewater and dry it first. in either case, with proper marketing, it is generally possible for an authority to earn revenue by this means, al...
