Consider rolling a die with k sides, labeled a1, a2, ..., and ak, respectively. Let P(aj) be the ‘probability’ that a particular side aj appears after rolling the die. Before attempting to calculate P(aj), it is necessary to clarify the meaning of the word ‘probability’. In other words, we must specify what the number P(aj) quantifies. In statistics, the concept of ‘probability’ is formally int...

In this paper, LEMON, a lightweight enhanced monitoring algorithm based on packet sampling, is proposed. It targets a pre-assigned accuracy on bitrate estimates, for each monitored flow at a router interface. To this end, LEMON takes into account some basic properties of the flows, which can be easily inferred from a sampled stream, and it exploits them to dynamically adapt the monitoring time-...

We study a dynamic market with asymmetric information that creates the lemons problem. We compare effi ciency of the market under different assumptions about the timing of trade. We identify positive and negative aspects of dynamic trading, describe the optimal market design under regularity conditions and show that continuous-time trading can be always improved upon.

Twelve white-rot fungi were grown in solid-state culture on lemon grass (Cymbopogon citratus) and citronella (Cymbopogon winterianus) bagasse. The two lignocellulosic substrates had 11% permanganate lignin and a holocellulose fraction of 58%. After 5 to 6 weeks at 20 degrees C, nine fungi produced a solid residue from lemon grass with a higher in vitro dry matter enzyme digestibility than the o...

OBJECTIVE To describe the use of lemon/lime juice for douching by female sex workers (FSWs) and family planning clients (FPCs) in Jos, Nigeria. METHOD A total of 300 sexually active women comprising 200 FSWs and 100 FPCs were interviewed in June 2004 to determine the mode and rationale for the use of lemon/lime juice for sex. RESULT Majority of the women 167/300 (55.7%, 95% CI = 50-61%) i.e...

The effect of ascorbic acid and lemon juice on the silkworm, Bombyx mori has been studied with reference to larval growth, protein synthesis and silk production. Both these exogenous factors, when supplemented with mulberry diet, showed positive impact on larval growth during the fourth and fifth instar developmental stages. The analysis of growth trends in terms of compound periodical growth r...

The RETE algorithm is an efficient well-organized pattern matching algorithm for implementing production rule systems. The present paper focuses on the RETE algorithm to support disjunctive relationships using “or” connectivity and use the shadow proxy mechanism to update objects in the working memory. A Lemon Expert System is developed to identify the diseases of lemon crop to diagnose the dis...
