Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrastructural and Immunological Characterization of Hepatitis C Core Protein-DNA Plasmid ComplexesNelson Acosta-Rivero, Yaraima Aguilera, Viviana Falcon et al.Recently, it has been shown that a truncated HCV core (HCcAg) variant, covering the first 120 aa (HCcAg.120), interacts with plasmid DNA vaccine (pIDKE2), encoding the HCV structural proteins (HCcAg, E1 and E2). In the present work, HCcAg.120-pIDKE2 complexes, forming heterogeneous packaged structures, were visualized using a negative stain/rotary shadow technique. Interestingly, 72 hours after intramuscular injection of HCcAg.120-pIDKE2 complexes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHybrid Algorithm for Optimal Load Sharing in Grid ComputingD. Ramesh, A. KrishnanProblem statement: Grid Computing is the fast growing industry, which shares the resources in the organization in an effective manner. Resource sharing requires more optimized algorithmic structure, otherwise the waiting time and response time are increased and the resource utilization is reduced. Approach: In order to avoid such reduction in the performances of the grid system, an optimal resource sharing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Nov 2011 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling Load Balancing in Heterogeneous Unstructured P2P SystemsZhi Jun Li, Ming Hong LiaoLoad balancing is a generally concerned problem in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. Many researches on load balancing in the structured P2P systems have been launched currently, such as Chord or other DHTs. Although the researches on load balancing in unstructured P2P systems are emerged nowadays, the simple mechanisms achieved can only perform effectively in uniform environment. In this study, the influence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,783 accessesView PDFCite
