GPL Maxima is an open-source computer algebra system based on DOE-MACSYMA. GPL Maxima included two tensor manipulation packages from DOE-MACSYMA, but these were in various states of disrepair. One of the two packages, CTENSOR, implemented component-based tensor manipulation; the other, ITENSOR, treated tensor symbols as opaque, manipulating them based on their index properties. The present pape...

RTLinux-GPL is an RTOS which uses a dual-kernel approach, that is, executing a real-time kernel (RTLinux-GPL itself) jointly with a general purpose OS (Linux). By using this approach, complex real-time application with both, hard and soft real-time requirements can be implemented easier. However, the core of RTLinux-GPL is getting bloated and hard to maintain, with several out-of-date and not-w...

Background: Autoimmune gastritis (AIG), characterized with the presence of anti-parietal-cell antibodies (APCA), is a risk factor for gastric cancer. However, AIG may go underdiagnosed, especially in case H. pylori infection and precancerous lesions (GPL), due to ambiguous pathology delayed symptom onset. Aim: Investigate prevalence characteristics GPL patients. Methods: Prevalence was determin...

Glycopeptidolipid (GPL) antigens which are associated with the superficial L1 layer of Mycobacterium intracellulare serovar 20 were labeled with radioisotopes by means of internal labeling techniques and used in macrophage uptake and retention studies. The use of tritiated alanine and phenylalanine allowed the incorporation of label into the GPL invariant fatty acyl peptide core, which is commo...

A particle injection model has been applied to the radio outbursts of the X-ray binary Circinus X-1. The radio outbursts of this system have often been observed to exhibit a double peaked structure, i.e., with two apparent consecutive maxima. We show here that particle injection models can account for such observed behaviour provided that a time variable particle injection rate is adopted. Seve...

The cell envelopes of several species of nontuberculous mycobacteria, including the Mycobacterium avium complex, contain glycopeptidolipids (GPLs) as major glycolipid components. GPLs are highly antigenic surface molecules, and their variant oligosaccharides define each serotype of the M. avium complex. In the oligosaccharide portion of GPLs, the fucose residue is one of the major sugar moietie...

INTRODUCTION Both therapeutic ultrasound as a low level laser therapy are used to control musculoskeletal pain, despite controversy about its effects, yet the literature is poor and also presents conflicting results on possible cumulative effects of techniques association. The aim was to compare the antinociceptive effects of low level laser therapy, therapeutic ultrasound and the association. ...

Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) is a perennial forage crop with desirable properties adapted to temperate climate conditions. The purpose of this research was study the phenotypic correlation coefficients between dry yield and some morphological traits, identify direct indirect effects associated traits. Thus, 32 ecotypes (landraces) were assessed in randomized complete block design layo...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The aim of our study was to characterize the patient profile and prognostic value associated with high positive IgG (>100 GPL) anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL). METHODS We studied the clinical, laboratory, radiological, and prospective historical features of ischemic cerebrovascular disease in patients with >100 GPL titers. From our neurology department, 27 consecutive ...

Off-policy deep reinforcement learning algorithms commonly compensate for overestimation bias during temporal-difference by utilizing pessimistic estimates of the expected target returns. In this work, we propose Generalized Pessimism Learning (GPL), a strategy employing novel learnable penalty to enact such pessimism. particular, learn alongside critic with dual TD-learning, new procedure esti...
