Engineering a Photo-Control Mechanism for RNA Interference
… to cage NA oligonucleotides, including FNAs for controlling RNAi. Photo-control over RNAi was demonstrated in cell culture and developing zebrafish embryos. Caging also afforded additional protection against nuclease digestion. High doses of siFNAs were toxic to fish embryos, as characterized by …

A control mechanism for sales associates in high-end retail
… data collected and the data required for better control of the associates. Recognizing the gap, we sidestep it by tapping the knowledge of many experienced sales associates through field work. This knowledge is then funneled back to assist in modeling client behavior. The dynamics between an …

Reputation as a Control Mechanism for Opportunistic Behavior in Supply Chains
There is a discussion on the major theories for controlling opportunistic behavior within exchanges and transactions, followed by a discussion of the role reputation plays within this framework. A model of how reputation influences opportunism was developed, and then empirically tested.

A dive into 'unknown' waters : a critical analysis of the EC merger control mechanism and policy and its application in the Baltic Countries
… analysis of the approaches towards merger control regime taken at the EC and the national levels, namely the Baltic countries. The emergence and further development of competition law and policy (particularly merger control rules) in the unexplored Baltic countries represent a novelty of …

Performance modeling and control of web servers
… task of modeling a web server and designing a mechanism that can prevent the web server from being overloaded. Four papers are presented. The first paper gives an M/G/1/K processor sharing model of a single web server. The model is validated against measurements ands imulations on the commonly …

Routing and Transport Layer Protocols for Wireless Networks
… performance limitations of TCP's (Transmission Control Protocol) congestion control mechanism on Wide Area Wireless Networks (WWANs) and also on ad hoc networks. We identify the properties of typical WWANs based on studies on the CDPD (Cellular Digital Packet Data) network, simulate (ns-2) the …

Performance Study of Two Phase Locking in Single-Site and Distributed Database Systems (Concurrency Control, Queueing Network, Pre-Claim, Ordering)
Two phase locking (2PL) as a concurrency control mechanism (CCM) is studied in the contexts of single-site database systems (SDBSs) and distributed database systems (DDBSs).

A study on reproducible testing for distributed multithreaded Java programs.
… programs. Such techniques cover the controlled execution of the program by using a separate control mechanism that forces the execution with a given test case. In this thesis, we describe a reproducible testing method for DM programs. We propose an extended design notation---PMSC …

A distinctive organizational control practice: Geographic personnel rotation
Organizational control is a fundamental process which ensures organizations achieve their goals. The importance and difficulty increase when the organization is a law enforcement agency. Control within an organization can be implemented in several different ways. Regular rotations and transfers of …
