In computer and system sciences, higher-order cellular automata (HOCA) are a type of cellular automata that evolve over multiple time steps and generate complex patterns, which have various applications, such as secret-sharing schemes, data compression, and image encryption.In this paper, we introduce HOCA to quantum many-body physics and construct
A CCL5 Haplotype Is Associated with Low Seropositivity Rate of HCV Infection in People Who Inject Drugs.
The role of CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) and its ligand Mask CCL5 on the pathogenesis of HIV infection has been well studied but not for HCV infection.Here, we investigated whether CCL5 haplotypes influence HIV and HCV seropositivity among 373 Caucasian people who inject drugs (PWID) from Estonia.Study included 373 PWID; 56% were HIV seropositive
Forage potential of winter cereal/legume intercrops in organic farming
This research was performed to assess the potential of cereal/legume intercropping to enhance forage yield and quality when compared with cereal sole crops under the constrains imposed by UE organic farming regulations.Sole crops (SC) and intercrops (IC) of two winter cereals, barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.), and
Applications of Self-Driving Vehicles in an Aging Population
AbstractThe proportion of older adult drivers is increasing and represents a growing population that must contemplate reducing driving and eventually stopping driving.The advent of self-driving vehicles opens vast possibilities with practical and far-reaching applications for our aging population.Advancing technologies in transportation jackets may
