We devise a tool-supported framework for achieving power-efficiency of data-flowhardware circuits.Our approach relies on formal control techniques, where the goal is to compute a strategy that can be used to drive a given model so that it satisfies a set of control objectives.More specifically, we give an algorithm d2 gul that derives abstract beha
Abstract Background Clostridium perfringens is a Gram-positive anaerobic bacterium causing severe diseases such as gas gangrene and pseudomembranosus colitis, that are generally due to the secretion of powerful extracellular toxins.The expression of toxin genes is mainly regulated by VirR, the response regulator of a two-component system.Up to now
As a typical case of the optimal planning for the provision of restricted medical resources, widespread vaccination is considered an effective and sustainable way to prevent and control large-scale novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreaks.However, an initial supply shortage of vaccines is inevitable because of the narrow production and l
Abstract As the most popular sport around the globe, the game of football has recently intrigued much research interest to explore and distill useful and appealing information from the sport.Network science and graph-centric methods have been previously applied to study the importance of football players and teams.In this paper, for the first time
Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddellii) are important predators in the Southern Ocean and are among the best-studied pinnipeds on Earth, yet much still needs to be learned about their year-round movements and foraging behaviour.Using biologgers, we tagged 62 post-moult Weddell seals in McMurdo Sound and vicinity between 2010 and 2012.Generalized ad
