1 Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Wills, Norma M.-1 frameshifting at a CGA AAG hexanucleotide site is required for transposition of insertion sequence IS1222The discovery of programmed _x0001_1 frameshifting at the hexanucleotide shift site CGA_AAG, in addition to the classical X_XXY_YYZ heptanucleotide shift sequences, prompted a search for instances among eubacterial insertion sequence elements. IS1222 has a CGA_AAG shift site. A genetic analysis re...Hexanucleotides; Heptanucleotides; Frameshifting2004
2 Mathews, V. John; Clark, Edward B.A mathematical basis for the application of the modified geometric method to maximum frequency estimationAbstract-The application of ultrasound in assessing the fetal cardiovascular system often requires the accurate estimation of maximum blood flow velocity waveforms using Doppler measurements. The modified geometric method estimates the maximum Doppler frequency as the frequency at which the vertica...2004

9 Carter, John B.An O(1) time complexity software barrierAs network latency rapidly approaches thousands of processor cycles and multiprocessors systems become larger and larger, the primary factor in determining a barrier algorithm?s performance is the number of serialized network latencies it requires. All existing barrier algorithms require at least ...Network latency; Barrier algorithm; Time complexity software barrier2004
10 Sperry, John S.Analysis of circular bordered pit function I. Angiosperm vessels with homogenous pit membranesA model predicted pit and vessel conductivity, the air-seed pressure for cavitation, and the implosion pressure causing vessel collapse. Predictions were based on measurements from 27 angiosperm species with circular bordered pits and air-seed pressures of 0.2-11.3 MPa. Vessel implosion pressure exc...Functional wood anatomy; hydraulic architecture; plant biomechanics2004
11 Sperry, John S.Analysis of circular bordered pit function II. Gymnosperm tracheids with torus-margo pit membranesA model of xylem conduit function was applied to gymnosperm tracheids with torus-margo pit membranes for comparison with angiosperm vessels. Tracheids from 17 gymnosperm tree species with circular bordered pits and air-seed pressures from 0.8 to 11.8 MPa were analyzed. Tracheids were more reinforced...Functional wood anatomy; hydraulic architecture; plant biomechanics2004
12 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Anomalous relaxation in a quasi-one-dimensional fractal cluster glassThe low-temperature spin glass state of the quasi-1D organic-based magnet [MnTPP]+[TCNE]- .x(1,3-C6H4Cl2) has unusually long relaxation times due to frustration induced by dipole-dipole interactions between fractal spin clusters. This long relaxation is investigated with in-field relaxation measurem...Sweep rate; Bifurcation; Magnetization2004

14 Liu, FengBending of nanoscale thin Si film induced by growth of Ge islands: hut vs. domeWe perform atomistic simulations to compute bending of freestanding nanoscale thin Si film induced by strained Ge islands. We show that a larger Ge dome island can induce smaller bending than a smaller hut island and explain the surprising experimental observation for growth of Ge islands on pattern...Bending; Nanoscale thin Si film; Ge islands; Hut islands; Dome islands; Atomistic simulations2004
15 Goller, FranzBilateral syringeal contributions to song in the zebra finchAlthough central control of song production has been investigated extensively in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata), much less is known about peripheral vocal motor dynamics during song.Electromyographic activity; Sound souces; Unilateral2004

25 Kestle, John R. W.; Brockmeyer, Douglas LeeComplications of intracranial pressure monitoring in children with head traumaObject. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring has become routine in the management of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
