Killing the Umpire: Cooperative Defects in Mitotic Checkpoint and BRCA2 Genes on the Road to Transformation
(BioMed Central, 1999)
Recent findings from mouse models of BRCA2 genetic lesions have provided intriguing insights and important questions concerning modes of tumor development in familial breast and ovarian cancers. Fibroblasts from mice ...
Surface Structure of Liquid Metals and the Effect of Capillary Waves: X-ray Studies on Liquid Indium
(American Physical Society, 1999)
We report x-ray reflectivity (XR) and small-angle off-specular diffuse-scattering (DS) measurements from the surface of liquid indium close to its melting point of 156°C. From the XR measurements we extract the surface ...
X-ray Studies of Liquid Metal Surfaces
(Elsevier, 1999)
X-ray reflectivity and diffuse scattering measurements of the surface of liquid Hg, Ga and In are reviewed. For each metal surface induced layering is found. The surface structure of these metals is compared and differences ...
Accounting for Cognitive Costs in On-Line Auction Design
(Springer Verlag, 1999)
Many auction mechanisms, including first and second price ascending and sealed bid auctions, have been proposed and analyzed in the economics literature. We compare the usefulness of different mechanisms for on-line auctions, ...
iBundle: An Efficient Ascending Price Bundle Auction
(Association for Computing Machinery, 1999)
Standard auction mechanisms often break down in important e-commerce applications, where agents demand bundles of complementary resources, i.e. "I only want B if I also get A". This paper describes iBundle, an ascending-price ...
A Statistical Model for Multiparty Electoral Data
(Cambridge University Press, 1999)
We propose a comprehensive statistical model for analyzing multiparty, district-level elections. This model, which provides a tool for comparative politics research analogous to that which regression analysis provides in ...
No Evidence on Directional vs. Proximity Voting
(Oxford University Press, 1999)
The directional and proximity models offer dramatically different theories for how voters make decisions and fundamentally divergent views of the supposed microfoundations on which vast bodies of literature in theoretical ...
Structure of Poly(\(\gamma\)-Benzyl-L-Glutamate) Monolayers at the Gas–Water Interface: A Brewster Angle Microscopy and X-Ray Scattering Study
(American Institute of Physics, 1999)
This paper reports Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), x-ray specular reflectivity (XR), grazing incidence diffraction (GID) and off-specular diffuse scattering (XOSDS) measurements of Langmuir monolayers formed on water by ...
The Future of Ecological Inference Research: A Reply to Freedman et al.
(American Statistical Association, 1999)
Architectures for Real-Time Volume Rendering
(Elsevier, 1999)
Over the last decade, volume rendering has become an invaluable visualization technique for a wide variety of applications. This paper reviews three special-purpose architectures for interactive volume rendering: texture ...
