Under today’s highly complex and dynamic business environment, external data (most often issued from web) need to be included in traditional On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) analysis so that decision-makers would be well-informed before making effective decision. Including external web data requires knowing the exact semantic meaning in order to use the right information at the right time. ...

SW-WL'03 is the first edition of the workshop " Semantic Web for Web-based learning. Implications in the area of educational information systems ». The emerging Semantic Web presents exciting new possibilities for uses of learning technology. The SW-WL'03 papers include papers that are primarily concerned with topics on applications of the Semantic Web technology for education. In section 1 (on...

BACKGROUND Triple-reassortant (tr) viruses of human, avian, and swine origin, including H1N1, H1N2, and H3N2 subtypes, emerged in North American swine herds in 1998 and have become predominant. While sporadic human infections with classical influenza A (H1N1) and with tr-swine influenza viruses have been reported, relatively few have been documented in occupationally exposed swine workers (SW)....

The Smith-Waterman (SW) algorithm has been widely utilized for searching biological sequence databases in bioinformatics. Recently, several works have adopted the graphic card with Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) and their associated CUDA model to enhance the performance of SW computations. However, these works mainly focused on the protein database search by using the intertask parallelization...

We consider Slepian-Wolf (SW) coding of multiple sources and extend the packing bound and the notion of perfect code from conventional channel coding to SW coding with more than two sources. We then introduce Hamming Codes for Multiple Sources (HCMSs) as a potential solution of perfect SW coding for arbitrary number of terminals. Moreover, we study the case with three sources in detail. We pres...

We revisit the exact Seiberg-Witten (SW) map on Dirac-Born-Infeld actions, making a connection with the deformation quantization scheme. The picture on field dependent induced gravity from noncommutativity becomes more transparent in the context of deformation quantization. We also find an exact SW map for an adjoint scalar field, consistent with that deduced from RR couplings of unstable non-B...

The present study compares developmental changes in plasma levels of growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and cortisol, and mRNA levels of their receptors and the prolactin receptor (PRLR) in the gill of anadromous and landlocked Atlantic salmon during the spring parr-smolt transformation (smoltification) period and following four days and one month seawater (SW) acclimatio...

Few genes are available to develop drought-tolerant bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars. One way to enhance bread wheat's genetic diversity would be to take advantage of the diversity of wild species by creating synthetic hexaploid wheat (SW) with the genomic constitution of bread wheat. In this study, we compared the expression of traits encoded at different ploidy levels and evaluate...
