We announce the release of an advanced version of the Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA) software, which currently contains facilities for building sequence alignments, inferring phylogenetic histories, and conducting molecular evolutionary analysis. In version 6.0, MEGA now enables the inference of timetrees, as it implements the RelTime method for estimating divergence times for ...

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can both affect and be transmitted by mega-watt wind turbines. This paper provides a general overview on EMI with respect to mega-watt wind turbines. Possibilities of measuring all types of electromagnetic interference are shown. Electromagnetic fields resulting from a GSM transmitter mounted on a mega-watt wind turbine will be analyzed in detail. This cellula...

In this paper, we consider the use of i* for modelling social networks in the context of mega-urbanization and water resources. In particular, we discuss, mostly by way of example, issues that are special to this domain such as the need to explicitly model nature or a new kind of agent evolution. Another important issue is the usability of i* by scientists from different disciplines to model me...

Classical automated theorem proving of today is based on ingenious search techniques to find a proof for a given theorem in very large search spaces—often in the range of several billion clauses. But in spite of many successful attempts to prove even open mathematical problems automatically, their use in everyday mathematical practice is still limited. The shift from search based methods to mor...

This paper utilizes the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) to carry on the analysis and the predictions of the agriculture drought trend in Guangdong Province, trying to provide a reference for predictions and forecasting of the agricultural drought trend. After decomposing the anomaly signals of precipitation and undulating signals of agriculture drought condition, four IMF components were obt...

As it makes the transition from the industrial age to the information age, the Department of Defense, like other government agencies and indeed like the global business community as a whole, is moving aggressively to leverage and capitalize on advances in information technologies. The result is a clear trend away from stand-alone component systems to ones that are richly interconnected and incr...

The case histories of two patients with penicillin-induced haemolytic anaemia are presented. One had received 20 mega units a day for 18 days, the other had received 20 mega units a day for two days and then 12 mega units a day for 25 days, before the haemolytic anaemia was diagnosed. Both had previously had courses of penicillin. A strongly positive direct antiglobulin reaction which appeared ...

OBJECTIVE Bertolotti's syndrome is a spine disorder characterized by the occurrence of a congenital lumbar transverse mega-apophysis in a transitional vertebral body that usually articulates with the sacrum or the iliac bone. It has been considered a possible cause of low back pain. METHOD We analyzed the cases of Bertolotti's syndrome that failed clinical treatment and reviewed the literatur...
