Learning from the economics of networks to enhance poverty alleviation in African cotton zones [PDF]

open access: yes
Cotton sectors in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) were run by monopolistic para-statal organisms for a long time. They embarked upon a restructuring/liberalisation process as of the mid-1980s but the outcomes were mitigated at best.

Extended SSA Numbering: Introducing SSA Properties to Languages with Multi-level Pointers

open access: yes, 1996
Static Single Assignment (SSA) intermediate representations have become quite popular in compiler development. One advantage of the SSA form is that each use of a variable corresponds to exactly one definition, and thus two references of the same SSA ...

Complementarity between Irrigation and Fertilizer Technologies - A Justification for Increased Irrigation Investment in the Less-Favored Areas of SSA

open access: yes
There is a downward spiral of declining soil fertility, low crop yield and increasing poverty in the less-favored areas of SSA. The semi-arid tropics of northern Ghana share this episode.

SSA repair frequency.

open access: yes
A. Both mismatches and nonhomologous tails reduce SSA. The frequency of DSB-induced SSA was measured after induction of GAL::HO (in Tailed strains) or GAL::CAS9 + gRNA (in Tailless strains) compared to cells grown on dextrose.

Immune Complexes Shape the Pathogenicity of Autoantibodies in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: Insights From an FcγRIIIA‐Reporter Assay

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Immune complexes (ICs), formed by autoantigen and autoantibody, play a pathogenic role in systemic autoimmune diseases through stimulation of Fcγ receptors (FcγR). However, studies investigating bioactivity of circulating ICs across various diseases remain limited.

Signal Extraction and Forecasting of the UK Tourism Income Time Series. A Singular Spectrum Analysis Approach

open access: yes
We present and apply the Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA), a relatively new, non-parametric and data-driven method used for signal extraction (trends, seasonal and business cycle components) and forecasting of the UK tourism income. Our results show that
