Genome-wide survey of human alternative pre-mRNA splicing with exon junction microarrays
- Science
, 2003
"... Alternative pre–messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) splicing plays important roles in development, physiology, and disease, and more than half of human genes are alternatively spliced. To understand the biological roles and regulation of alternative splicing across different tissues and stages of development, ..."

, sys-tematic methods are needed. Here, we demonstrate the use of microarrays to monitor splicing at every exon-exon junction in more than 10,000 multi-exon human genes in 52 tissues and cell lines. These genome-wide data provide experimental evidence and tissue distributions for thousands of known
What Can New Survey Data Tell Us about Recent Changes in Distribution and Poverty?

Systematic social observation of public spaces: A new look at disorder in urban neighborhoods
- American Journal of Sociology
, 1999
"... This article assesses the sources and consequences of public disorder. Based on the videotaping and systematic rating of more than 23,000 street segments in Chicago, highly reliable scales of social and physi-cal disorder for 196 neighborhoods are constructed. Census data, police records, and an ind ..."

, and an independent survey of more than 3,500 resi-dents are then integrated to test a theory of collective efficacy and structural constraints. Defined as cohesion among residents com-bined with shared expectations for the social control of public space, collective efficacy explains lower rates of crime and observed
A Survey of Mobile Phone Sensing
, 2010
"... Mobile phones or smartphones are rapidly becoming the central computer and communication device in people’s lives. Application delivery channels such as the Apple AppStore are transforming mobile phones into App Phones, capable of downloading a myriad of applications in an instant. Importantly, toda ..."

-equipped mobile phones will revolutionize many sectors of our economy, including business, healthcare, social networks, environmental monitoring, and transportation. In this article we survey existing mobile phone sensing algorithms, applications, and systems. We discuss the emerging sensing paradigms
Detecting Causal Relationships in Distributed Computations: In Search of the Holy Grail
- IN SEARCH OF THE HOLY GRAIL. DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING
, 1994
"... The paper shows that characterizing the causal relationship between significant events is an important but non-trivial aspect for understanding the behavior of distributed programs. An introduction to the notion of causality and its relation to logical time is given; some fundamental results concern ..."

concerning the characterization of causality are presented. Recent work on the detection of causal relationships in distributed computations is surveyed. The issue of observing distributed computations in a causally consistent way and the basic problems of detecting global predicates are discussed
A theory of friendly boards
- Journal of Finance
, 2007
"... We analyze the consequences of the board’s dual role as advisor as well as monitor of management. Given this dual role, the CEO faces a trade-off in disclosing information to the board: If he reveals his information, he receives better advice; however, an informed board will also monitor him more in ..."

Mthodologies to Measure the Gender Dimension of Crime and Violence
, 2001
"... This paper argues that, however useful the results of such interventions might be, the chosen measures of crime and violence underestimate certain types of violence, particularly non-economic violence, and key dimensions of violence, particularly gender and age. Complementary methodologies are th ..."

Cluster Analysis for Gene Expression Data: A Survey
- IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering
, 2004
"... Abstract—DNA microarray technology has now made it possible to simultaneously monitor the expression levels of thousands of genes during important biological processes and across collections of related samples. Elucidating the patterns hidden in gene expression data offers a tremendous opportunity f ..."

Quantitative mass spectrometric multiple reaction monitoring assays for major plasma proteins.
- Mol. Cell. Proteomics
, 2006
"... Quantitative LC-MS/MS assays were designed for tryptic peptides representing 53 high and medium abundance proteins in human plasma using a multiplexed multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) approach. Of these, 47 produced acceptable quantitative data, demonstrating within-run coefficients of variation ..."
