Subjects
Circuit design -- Methods, Business, Electronics and electrical industries
Abstract

Electric engineers can use VHDL for hardware design because it offers the benefit of designing at a higher level of abstraction. VHDL and other HDL improves productivity by allowing engineers to work with logic operations rather than circuit diagrams. VHDL also improves documentation and quality and encourages simulation., As your designs become more complex it becomes more efficient to use tools that allow you to design at a higher level of abstraction. Hardware-description languages, such as VHDL, are [...]

Abstract

The presence of all three classes of pathogens (viral, protozoan and bacterial) as well as indicator microbes at a non-point source recreational beach is assessed. The analysis of the various microbes under different targeted environmental conditions has included the evaluation of the sources of microbial contaminants and pathogens and the effectiveness of various analytical methods for microbe detection.

32. Quantification of human polyomaviruses JC virus and BK by TaqMan quantitative PCR and comparison to other water quality indicators in water and fecal samples

Abstract

A TaqMan quantitative PCR (QPCR) assay is developed and optimized based on the conserved T antigen in order to quantify and detect two human polyomaviruses (HPyVs), JC virus and BK virus. The use of this quantitative assay in water quality research might help regulatory agencies in identifying sources of water pollution for improved remediation of contaminated waters and thus protecting humans from exposure to pathogens.

Abstract

A method developed to concentrate and extract human polyomaviruses (HPyVs) DNA, which are used as indicators of human fecal pollution, from environmental water samples and to amplify it by nested PCR is presented. The sensitivity, specificity and correlation with other human-associated markers have indicated that the HPyV assay can be a useful predictor of human fecal pollution in environmental waters and an important component of the microbial-source-tracking toolbox.

Abstract

Results indicate that ribotyping with a single restriction enzyme HindIII is not an effective method to differentiate Escherichia coli isolates within the same species or in samples collected from different geographical regions. However, the method differentiates E. coli from human or animal sources derived from a large geographic region.

Abstract

This article describes the microbial source tracking methods, which trace fecal pollution using microbiological, genotypic, phenotypic, and chemical protocols. An overview of these methods and how they can be used to predict and identify sources of fecal pollution in the environemnt is presented. Current data indicate that there is no single approach for the identification specific sources of fecal pollution.

Abstract

When the information used by a principal to monitor an agent is private, and thus non-verifiable by a third party, the principal has a credibility issue with the agent. The agent should be concerned that the principal could misrepresent the information in order to collect a monetary penalty from him. Restoring credibility may lead to an extreme waste of resources the so-called burning of money, where the monetary penalty is given away to a third party. We show that a more realistic and efficient outcome is feasible by exploiting the timing of private information. If the private information arrives before the agent has completed his effort, non-monetary tools like rescaling the project become optimal, and no money needs to be burned. We show that rescaling is more effective than pure monetary penalties because effort has different values to different parties, while money is equally valuable to all parties. An alternative way to solve the principal's credibility problem is to certify the private signal and make it public. When collusion between the certifier and the agent is an issue, we uncover interesting similarities between private signals and public (certified) signals vulnerable to collusive manipulation. We show that certification of private information by a third party may not always be in the interest of the principal if this certification raises the specter of collusion.

Abstract

This paper shows that the probability of small business firms obtaining outside financing to support their research and development projects is greater given more complex commercial opportunities – defined as a greater number of different potential applications for a project’s anticipated results – for their innovations. The effects on the probability of outside finance found for other factors are consistent with the earlier findings in the literature about innovative entrepreneurial firms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
