The aim of this paper is to present procedures and tools used for quality control and statistical analysis of high-density microarray (Affymetrix GeneChip®) to search for genes that may be differentially expressed and that may provide clues to unravel parasite…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…

ABSTRACT: Despite of all modem communications tools, difficulties of dialogue still exist between technicians and local community members when dealing with natural resources. This is related to many factors, from the predominantly technical formation of the teachers and researches to…

Ontology integration is the problem of combining data sources in the SemanticWeb. Concepts in source ontologies are captured in terms of concepts de ned in a global ontology. When some of these ontologies are inconsistent, the knowledge engineer often has…

The object of this work was to verify the utility of a level IV fugacity model to simulate the environmental fate of the insecticide carbofuran when employed in the cultivation of irrigated rice. The model simulated the dynamic distribution of…

In this paper, we present a novel model of an artificial immune system (AIS), based on the process that suffers the T-Cell. The proposed model is used for solving constrained (numerical) optimization problems. The model operates on three populations: Virgins,…

The knowledge that consumers have of products and services as well as other factors serves as an indicator as to which product or store to “pick”. The products and store location add to the ease with which consumers are able…
