Rabbit cornea, either as a part of the whole eye or as an isolated specimen, was incubated in vitro in a moist chamber maintained at 34° C. The endothelial surface was perfused with various solutions in order to find a medium capable of maintaining in vitro cornea at normal thickness. The KEI medium (a culture medium for in vitro rabbit lens developed by Kinsey and associates) was found to be t...

Tools for performance monitoring and analysis become indispensable parts of programming environments for parallel computers. As the number of processors increases, the conventional techniques for monitoring the performance of parallel programs will produce large amounts of data in the form of event trace les. On the other hand, this wealth of information is a problem for the programmer who is f...
