Molecular characterization of microbial interactions with labile dissolved organic matter by Halloran, Kathryn H.

“…Here, I apply aniline derivatization to filtrate from cultures of Prochlorococcus grown under 24-hour diel light/dark conditions and sampled every two hours. I find that Prochlorococcus cells not only release metabolites into solution, but also take those metabolites up again, with diel rhythmicity. …”

Defining Relations for Minimal Unitary Quantum Affine W-Algebras by Adamović, Dražen, Kac, Victor G., Möseneder Frajria, Pierluigi, Papi, Paolo

“…We prove that any unitary highest weight module over a universal minimal quantum affine W-algebra at non-critical level descends to its simple quotient. We find the defining relations of the unitary simple minimal quantum affine W-algebras and the list of all their irreducible positive energy modules. …”

Comparative analysis of Internet service providers' competition and Internet usage pattern. by Seow, Shin Horng., Ng, Chee Keong.

“…In the first study, we try to evalute three of the major Internet Services Providers (ISPs) in Singapore, based on their pricing, Quality of Services (QoS), value-added services, versioning, advertising and loyalty programs. Our objective is to find out which of the three ISPs' Internet access options is the most attractive to most of the consumers.In our second study, we looked into the usage of the Internet by Nanyang Tachnological University's undergraduates. …”

Sample size estimation with missing values on clinical trials by Zhang, Mengyang

“…In this work, we compare the power of the full datasets with the power of the datasets having missing values under the 2 × 2 and 2 × 4 crossover design. In this way, we find the average percentage of the sample size that should be increased to offset the decreasing in power (original is around 80%), which is caused by 20% and 30% missing data in the tests for treatment difference and bio-equivalence. …”
