Abstract:

Species evolution can often be adequately described with a phylogenetic tree. Interestingly, this is the case also for the evolution of homologous genes; a gene in an ancestral species may – through gene duplication, gene loss, lateral gene transfer (LGT), and speciation events – give rise to a gene family distributed across contemporaneous species. However, molecular sequence evolution and genetic recombination make the history – the gene tree – non-trivial to reconstruct from present-day sequences. This history is of biological interest, e.g., for inferring potential functional equivalences

Den primära frågan i projektet har varit: Hur relaterar en tillbyggnad till den historia som en huvudbyggnad bär på? Resultatet är att den mest lämpade delen har växt ut, men anpassats för att rymma de funktioner som saknas i huvudbyggnaden. Min ambition har varit att få tillbyggnaden att både kännas som en naturlig del av Nationalmuseum och dess historia, samtidigt som den är ett eget kapitel. Den är både kopierande och hänsynslös. Var byggnaden skulle växa ut kom primärt av vad omgivningen skulle må bäst av. Vilken typ av vägg skulle ge de bästa uterummen? Rummet mot vattnet kommer att bli f

Abstract:

"Model Driven Software Development" is a recent trend in development of software-intensive systems. In the Model Driven Software Development process, all knowledge pertaining to the software system to be built is represented in the form of models, in the right formalism(s) and at the right level of abstraction. At the highest level of abstraction, domain models, rather than generic models are used. Although the idea of developing the software system at a higher abstraction level is appealing, many fundamental questions remain unresolved. Many issues such as how to define the syntax and semanti

Abstract:

In a process called 'base rivalry', irreparable mutations are provoked in the replication of monotonous sequences, which depend on the cell temperature, the cell viscosity and monotonous sequence length. This explains the very long monotonous sequences and very long DNAs that occur over long evolutionary epochs. Presumably, base rivalry (with tautomerism or too low cell viscosity) also provokes the formation of tumors and the emergence of dangerous viral mutations.

In a previous publication [1] the author described the base rivalry in monotonous DNA sequences and their effect on the DNA repair mechanism. As described in the article, during the monotonous sequence replication, energies appear theoretically to increase with a progressive replication fork up to the quantum mechanical energy level n=2 because of the base rivalry, and these rivalry energies affect the bond strength between the complementary bases. If there is a tautomeric base pair in the replication position where the rivalry energy is large enough, then in this position an irreparable muta

The emerging science of religious evolution (the evolution of traits that distinguish religious individuals from non-religious ones) and the emerging science of cultural evolution have recently entered into a reciprocal relationship, each having something to offer the other. The theory of cultural evolution offers the field of religious evolution a powerful set of models and concepts for explaining important traits and facts that are not explained by genetic evolution. But theories of cultural evolution face their own important challenges, and theorists within the field do not agree about how

While an interest in the origin of human beings may be a cultural universal, there are various views and beliefs about how this event took place.

These statistics suggest that human evolution education is a topic that needs to be addressed.This thesis investigates the role of museums in public education about human evolution.

Likelihood analysis found evidence for positive selection in 12 of the 52 RLK family sequences groups. These 12 groups represent 97 of the 403 sequences analyzed. The majority of genes in groups subject to positive selection have not been functionally characterized, but sites und

An existence and uniqueness theorem is proved for the solutions, using semi-implicit time-discretization schemes. Examples include evolution equations and inclusions driven by square integrable Levy martingales.

Abstract:

Background: A large number of life science ontologies has been developed to support different application scenarios such as gene annotation or functional analysis. The continuous accumulation of new insights and knowledge affects specific portions in ontologies and thus leads to their adaptation. Therefore, it is valuable to study which ontology parts have been extensively modified or remained unchanged. Users can monitor the evolution of an ontology to improve its further development or apply the knowledge in their applications.

Many software systems eventually undergo changes to their basic architectural structure. Such changes may be prompted by new feature requests, new quality attribute requirements, changing technology, or other reasons. Whatever the causes, architecture evolution is commonplace in real-world software projects. Today’s software architects, however, have few techniques to help them plan such evolution. In particular, they have little assistance in planning alternatives, making trade-offs among these different alternatives, or applying best practices for particular domains. To address this, we have

By recording the mantis optomotor response to wide-field motion I was able to define the mantis Dmax, the point where a pattern is displaced by such a distance that coherent motion is no longer perceived. This allowed me to investigate the spatial characteristics of the insect wide field motion processing pathway.

Amazonian forests are ideal for such a study as they play a major role in the global carbon cycle and harbour a remarkable diversity of angiosperm lineages an
