Earlier work has derived the storage complexity of the bounded distance decoder (BDD) for binary-channel convolutional codes. We extend this work to the Gaussian noise channel and to partial-response codes. We show that the storage requirement similar to(2(1-R) - 1)(-t) paths for rate-R convolutional codes over the binary channel becomes similar to2(2Rt) over the Gaussian channel, where the decode

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is harmful to all life, and the ongoing depletion of the ozone layer is likely to affect interactions among both terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Some organisms have evolved adaptations to reduce radiation damage, such as the various types of protective pigmentation of freshwater zooplankton. However, strong pigmentation also increases vulnerability to visually hunting

Water-related processes in landfills are discussed with emphasis on internal processes such as field capacity, moisture variation in time and space, and macropore flow. Runoff production and evaporation from landfills in Sweden of different age are investigated. It is clarified in what ways and for how long a closed municipal landfill differs from an ordinary land area from a hydrological point of

The effect of addition of calcium, potassium and magnesium to iohexol (350 mg I/ml) enriched with 30 mM sodium was investigated with regard to ventricular fibrillation (VF) in isolated rabbit hearts. Enriching iohexol containing 30 mM sodium with increasing amounts of calcium (0-1.2 mM) caused an increase in the frequency of VF. Increasing amounts of potassium (0-3.8 mM) to iohexol with 30 mM Na +

Increased biochemical knowledge of normal and diseased corneas is essential for the understanding of corneal homeostasis and pathophysiology. In a recent study, we characterized the proteome of the normal human cornea and identified 141 distinct proteins. This dataset represents the most comprehensive protein study of the cornea to date and provides a useful reference for further studies of normal

The aim of the study was to evaluate messenger RNA and protein expression in limited amounts of tissue with low protein content. The Chomczynski method was used for simultaneous extraction of RNA, and protein was modified in the protein isolation step. Template mass and cycling time for the complementary DNA synthesis step of real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for a

If you are working at a university teaching a course in automation, and/or process control or if you are a student in interested in those subjects 14 this paper is for you! You might already have heard about the S88 batch control standard 14 how it tries to define terminology and concepts that makes design and operation of process control plants easier. In this paper, we will try to briefly explai
