Isolation and sequence of the cDNA for human protein S, a regulator of blood coagulation

Protein S is a cofactor of activated protein C; together they function as a regulator of blood coagulation. A human liver cDNA library constructed in bacteriophage lambda gt11 was screened with DNA fragments from a full-length bovine cDNA clone encoding protein S. Several cDNA clones were isolated and sequenced. The combined cDNA sequences encoded the mature protein and 15 residues of the leader s

Rites for Modern Man: New Practices in Sweden

This article offers a new perspective on the use of ritual and tradition in contemporary Sweden. Urbanization, immigration, cultural pluralism, the capitalist market system, changing conditions for women, the influence of mass media, and individualism are all characteristic of the social condition of modernity that have radically changed the context of ritual and transformed traditional patterns.

Object-Oriented Modeling and Optimal Control: A Case Study in Power Plant Start-Up

Modeling and optimization of complex systems traditionally have required significant programming efforts in order to encode the model dynamics, the cost functions and the constraints in a format suitable for state of the art numerical algorithms. The availability of dedicated languages for physical modeling has made the design process simpler, but often tools have been limited to a particular opti

An extremum seeking approach to parameterised loop-shaping control design

An approach to loop-shaping feedback control design in the frequency domain via extremum seeking is proposed. Both plants and controllers are linear time-invariant systems of possibly infinite dimension. The controller is assumed to be dependent on a finite number of parameters. Discrete-time global extremum seeking algorithms are employed to minimise the difference between the desired loop shape

Prospects and Limitations for Cross-Study Analyses – A Study on an Experiment Series

In software engineering research, experiments are conducted to evaluate new methods or techniques. The experimentation as such is beginning to mature, but little effort is spent on learning across different studies, except for a few meta-analyses. Meta-analysis can be applied to a set of experiments with the same design. This paper discusses learning across a set of experimental studies on fault d
