Modern Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) provide suffi-ciently flexible programming models that understanding their performance can provide insight in designing tomorrow’s manycore processors, whether those are GPUs or other-wise. The combination of multiple, multithreaded, SIMD cores makes studying

transcription that has illuminated the molecular basis of polymerase paus-ing events that serve critical regulatory functions. A transcription pause specified by the DNA sequence synchronizes the translation of RNA into protein with the transcription of leader regions of operons (groups of genes transcribed

In discussing these issues, they provide leads for future

Significant issues and concerns about he shortcomings of the NENL model are addressed. Such issues as ionosphere-tail coupling, large-scale mapping, onset rigger-ing, and observational timing

Abstract. The concept of backdoor variables offers a generic notion for provid-ing insights to the surprising success of constraint satisfaction solvers in solving remarkably complex real-world instances of combinatorial problems. We study backdoors in the context of answer set programming (ASP

An insight into the memristor device recalling the quasi-static expansion of Maxwell's equations and a review on Chua
