Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE introduces a whole new way of understanding what a firm does. Porter's groundbreaking concept of the value chain disaggregates a company into 'activities',...
One-step inactivation of chromosomal genes in <i>Escherichia coli</i> K-12 using PCR products
We have developed a simple and highly efficient method to disrupt chromosomal genes in Escherichia coli in which PCR primers provide the homology to the targeted gene(s). In thi...
Development and Testing of the OPLS All-Atom Force Field on Conformational Energetics and Properties of Organic Liquids
The parametrization and testing of the OPLS all-atom force field for organic molecules and peptides are described. Parameters for both torsional and nonbonded energetics have be...
Evaluating Goodness-of-Fit Indexes for Testing Measurement Invariance
Abstract Measurement invariance is usually tested using Multigroup Confirmatory Factor Analysis, which examines the change in the goodness-of-fit index (GFI) when cross-group co...
All-Atom Empirical Potential for Molecular Modeling and Dynamics Studies of Proteins
New protein parameters are reported for the all-atom empirical energy function in the CHARMM program. The parameter evaluation was based on a self-consistent approach designed t...
<i>MolProbity</i>: all-atom structure validation for macromolecular crystallography
MolProbity is a structure-validation web service that provides broad-spectrum solidly based evaluation of model quality at both the global and local levels for both proteins and...
A Multi-Modal Distributed Real-Time IoT System for Urban Traffic Control (Invited Paper)
Traffic congestion is one of the growing urban problem with associated problems like fuel wastage, loss of lives, and slow productivity. The existing traffic system uses program...
The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire: A Research Note
A novel behavioural screening questionnaire, the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), was administered along with Rutter questionnaires to parents and teachers of 403...
Maps of Dust Infrared Emission for Use in Estimation of Reddening and Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Foregrounds
We present a full-sky 100 μm map that is a reprocessed composite of the COBE/DIRBE and IRAS/ISSA maps, with the zodiacal foreground and confirmed point sources removed. Before u...
Harmonizing the Metabolic Syndrome
A cluster of risk factors for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus, which occur together more often than by chance alone, have become known as the metabolic syndr...
Organic electroluminescent diodes
A novel electroluminescent device is constructed using organic materials as the emitting elements. The diode has a double-layer structure of organic thin films, prepared by vapo...
