Decays of l =1 baryons: Quark model versus large N c
(American Physical Society, 1994) -
A Decentralized Auction Framework to Promote Efficient Resource Allocation in Open Computational Grids
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2007)Computational grids enable the sharing, aggregation, and selection of (geographically distributed) computational resources and can be used for solving large scale and data intensive computing applications. Computational ... -
Decentralized Robustness
Robustness links confidentiality and integrity properties of a computing system and has been identified as a useful property for characterizing and enforcing security. Previ- ous characterizations of robustness have been ... -
Decentralized, Adaptive Resource Allocation for Sensor Networks
(USENIX, 2005)This paper addresses the problem of resource allocation in sensor networks. We are concerned with how to allocate limited energy, radio bandwidth, and other resources to maximize the value of each node's contribution to ... -
Decimetre-scale multicellular eukaryotes from the 1.56-billion-year-old Gaoyuzhuang Formation in North China
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016)Fossils of macroscopic eukaryotes are rarely older than the Ediacaran Period (635–541 million years (Myr)), and their interpretation remains controversial. Here, we report the discovery of macroscopic fossils from the ... -
Deciphering Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: What Phenotype, Neuropathology and Genetics Are Telling Us about Pathogenesis
(Informa, 2013)Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized phenotypically by progressive weakness and neuropathologically by loss of motor neurons. Phenotypically, there is marked heterogeneity. Typical ALS has mixed upper motor ... -
Deciphering Radical Transport in the Large Subunit of Class I Ribonucleotide Reductase
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012)Incorporation of 2,3,6-trifluorotyrosine (F3Y) and a rhenium bipyridine ([Re]) photooxidant into a peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of the β protein (βC19) of Escherichia coli ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) allows ... -
Deciphering the MSSM Higgs Mass at Future Hadron Colliders
(Springer Nature, 2017-06)Future hadron colliders will have a remarkable capacity to discover massive new particles, but their capabilities for precision measurements of couplings that can reveal underlying mechanisms have received less study. In ... -
Deciphering Top Flavor Violation at the LHC with B Factories
(American Physical Society, 2008)The LHC will have unprecedented sensitivity to flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC) top quark decays, whose observation would be a clear sign of physics beyond the standard model. Although many details of top flavor ... -
Decision Markets with Good Incentives
(Springer Verlag, 2011)Decision markets both predict and decide the future. They allow experts to predict the effects of each of a set of possible actions, and after reviewing these predictions a decision maker selects an action to perform. ... -
Decision Support Issues in Central and Eastern Europe
(Routledge, 2016-08-30)Universities in Central and Eastern Europe are caught between enforced data reporting (because the governments want them to account for their activities and performance) and institutional research for strategic development ... -
A decision theory for imprecise probabilities
(University of Michigan, 2015)Those who model doxastic states with a set of probability functions, rather than a single function, face a pressing challenge: can they provide a plausible decision theory compatible with their view? Adam Elga (2010) and ... -
Decision-Making in Research Tasks with Sequential Testing
(Public Library of Science, 2009)Background: In a recent controversial essay, published by JPA Ioannidis in PLoS Medicine, it has been argued that in some research fields, most of the published findings are false. Based on theoretical reasoning it can be ... -
Declaraciones de independencia, 1776-2011. Del derecho natural al derecho internacional
(Colegio de Mexico, 2013) -
Declarative Policies for Capability Control
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2014)In capability-safe languages, components can access a resource only if they possess a capability for that resource. As a result, a programmer can prevent an untrusted component from accessing a sensitive resource by ensuring ... -
The Decline and Rise of Coronary Heart Disease: Understanding Public Health Catastrophism
(American Public Health Association, 2013)The decline of coronary heart disease mortality in the United States and Western Europe is one of the great accomplishments of modern public health and medicine. Cardiologists and cardiovascular epidemiologists have devoted ... -
Decline in bulk deposition of air pollutants in China lags behind reductions in emissions
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-02-21) -
Decline of Violence: Taming the Devil Within Us
(Nature Publishing Group, 2011)We are getting smarter, and as a result the world is becoming a more peaceful place, says Steven Pinker. -
The Decline of War and Conceptions of Human Nature
(Wiley, 2013)Many observers are skeptical of the evidence that war has declined, because they think that a decline in war requires an unrealistic, romantic theory of human nature. In fact it is compatible with a hardheaded view of human ... -
Decoding Representations of Face Identity That are Tolerant to Rotation
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2013)In order to recognize the identity of a face we need to distinguish very similar images (specificity) while also generalizing identity information across image transformations such as changes in orientation (tolerance). ...
