A Parallel 3D Piecewise Constant Reconstruction Algorithm for Asymmetric Virus Structures
In this paper we present an improved method for computing the electron density of virus structures; it uses O(N 2) less work and is based on piecewise constant approximation of the Discret...

A Comparison of Three Parallel Algorithms for 3D Reconstruction
In this paper we report on three parallel algorithms used for 3D reconstruction of asymmetric objects from their 2D projections. We discuss their computational, communication, I/O, and space requirements and p...

An Efficient Algorithm for Parallel 3D Reconstruction of Asymmetric Objects from Electron Micrographs
Recently we proposed a 3D reconstruction algorithm based on Fourier analysis using Cartesian coordinates. In this algorithm the computations to determine the values of the 3D Discrete Fourier Transform of the ...

Relationship of renal size, body size, and blood pressure in children
Somatometric parameters, renal size, and systolic blood pressure (SBP) were studied in 406 patients referred to pediatric nephrology and urology clinics. These patients included 269 females (66%), 67 African ...

Expression of a Bacillus thuringiensis cryIA(c) gene in transgenic peanut plants and its efficacy against lesser cornstalk borer
The invasion of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) pods and seeds by aflatoxin-forming species of Aspergillus is linked to injury by the lesser cornstalk borer and frequently causes a severe reduction in crop qualit...

Error behavior in optimal relaxation methods
Stiefel's theory of optimal relaxation methods is applied to study the behavior of the error, measured by (the square of) an energy-type norm, as the number of iteration steps tends to infinity. It is shown ho...
