Bohdan Pavlu and His Activities in Russia (1915—1919)
No full textThe article is devoted to the study of the political activity of one of the prominent figures of the Czech and Slovak national movement Bohdan Pavlu, who played a significant role in the Civil War in Russia. The material was documents of personal origin and official documents containing information on the activities of sCzech-Slovak organizations in Russia. The author pays attention to the evolution of political views of B. Pavlu, his attitude to the tsarist government. It is shown how external circumstances influenced the support of the course of T. G. Masaryk. Particular attention is paid to the activities of B. Pavlu during the Civil War in Russia. The novelty of the research is due to the fact that for the first time the socio-political views of one of the leaders of the Czech national movement in Russia are comprehensively studied. The relevance of the study is due to the lack of consensus in Russian society on the role of foreign intervention in the events of 1917—1922. It is proved that B. Pavlu’s activities contributed to the consolidation of the Czech and Slovak national movement in Russia. It is emphasized that it was he who formulated the concept of “Czechoslovakia”, which formed the basis for the idea of creating a single state for the two peoples

No full textMuscle hypertrophy and architectural changes in response to eight-week neuromuscular electrical stimulation training in healthy older people
No full textLoss of muscle mass of the lower limbs and of the spine extensors markedly impairs locomotor ability and spine stability in old age. In this study, we investigated whether 8 w of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) improves size and architecture of the lumbar multifidus (LM) and vastus lateralis (VL) along with locomotor ability in healthy older individuals. Eight volunteers (aged 65 ≥ years) performed NMES 3 times/week. Eight sex-and age-matched individuals served as controls. Functional tests (Timed Up and Go test (TUG) and Five Times Sit-to-Stand Test (FTSST)), VL muscle architecture (muscle thickness (MT), pennation angle (PA), and fiber length (FL)), along with VL cross-sectional area (CSA) and both sides of LM were measured before and after by ultrasound. By the end of the training period, MT and CSA of VL increased by 8.6% and 11.4%, respectively. No significant increases were observed in FL and PA. LM CSA increased by 5.6% (left) and 7.1% (right). Interestingly, all VL architectural parameters significantly decreased in the control group. The combined NMES had a large significant effect on TUG (r = 0.50, p = 0.046). These results extend previous findings on the hypertrophic effects of NMES training, suggesting to be a useful mean for combating age-related sarcopenia

Pavel avec les restes im posants d’une localité de l’antiquité tardive. En autom ne 1966, le Musée de G orica, ensem ble avec l’In stitu t pour la protection des m onum ents de la R. S. de Slovénie, a effectué des fouilles de sondage et d éterré 10 sondes sur un em placem ent de 200 X 80 m. Les découvertes furent pour la plupart de l’antiquité tardive; on découvrit en outre quatre tombes du h au t moyen âge et dans la sonde 6, des vestiges de peuplem ent dans la haute antiquité.

Shape-based alias analysis for object-oriented languages
No full textEine Shape Analyse ist eine statische Programmanalyse, die Eigenschaften verketteter Datenstrukturen im dynamischen Speicher untersucht. Üblicherweise wird sie zur Übersetzungszeit eingesetzt um Programmeigenschaften zu überprüfen und Fehler zu finden.Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es parametrisierte Versionen von zwei Shape Analysen zu vergleichen: die SRW Analyse, wie sie in ``Solving shape-analysis problems in languages with destructive updating'' (M.Sagiv, T. Reps, R. Wilhelm) beschrieben wird. Sie war die erste Shape Analyse, die für Programmknoten die Zeigerwerte ändern `strong updates' durchführen konnte. Die zweite Analyse, in Folge NNH genannt, basiert auf der vorigen Analyse, verwaltet ihre Information zu jedem Programmpunkt aber in einer Menge von Shape Graphen anstatt die Analyseinformation in einem einzelnen Zusammenfassungsgraphen zu halten.Diese Analyse ist in dem Buch ``Principles of Program Analysis'' (F.Nielson, H.R. Nielson, C. Hankin) beschrieben.Für den Vergleich wurden beide Analysen für C++ mit dem SATIrE Programmanalyse Framework implementiert. Ein Algorithmus der eine endliche konservative Menge von May-Aliasen aus einem gegebenem Shape Graphen berechnen kann wurde entwickelt. Die Genauigkeit der beiden Analysen wird an der Qualität der May-Alias Mengen gemessen, die aus den Ergebnissen der Shape Analysen extrahiert werden, wobei kleinere Mengen ein genaueres Ergebnis der Shape Analyse anzeigen. Ergebnisse von Experimenten zeigen die relative Qualität von parametrisierten Versionen beider Shape Analysen und die Auswirkung der Parameter auf Genauigkeit und Analyselaufzeit.Shape analysis is a static code analysis technique discovering properties of linked data structures allocated in the heap. It is typically used at compile time to find software bugs or to verify high-level correctness properties.Aim of this work is to evaluate merits and drawbacks of parametrized versions of two shape analyses: the SRW analysis, as described by ``Solving shape-analysis problems in languages with destructive updating'' (M. Sagiv, T. Reps, R. Wilhelm), which was the first to achieve strong update of pointer values for statements that modify pointer values. The second analysis, termed NNH, is based on the former but uses sets of shape graphs as abstraction instead of merging the analysis information into summary shape graphs. This shape analysis is described in the book ``Principles of Program Analysis'' (F. Nielson, H.R. Nielson, C. Hankin).To facilitate evaluation, both analyses were implemented for C++ using the SATIrE program analysis framework. An algorithm that computes a finite conservative set of may-aliases from a given shape graph has been developed. The precision of the shape analysis algorithms is measured by the size of extracted may-alias sets, where smaller sets indicate a more precise shape analysis. Experimental results show the relative quality of parametrized versions of both shape analyses and the impact that the parameters have on precision and runtime.<br /
Population Dynamics of Puccinia Emaculata in Natural and Experimental Environments
No full textPanicum virgutum L., commonly referred to as switchgrass, is a C4 grass native to most of North America. With its deep rooting system allowing for low nutrient and water requirements and high biomass production, switchgrass was selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) as a good crop for biofuel production. However, switchgrass has been reported to have substantial losses in biomass due to the fungal plant pathogen Puccinia emaculata also known as switchgrass rust. Thought to be a macrocyclic rust, switchgrass serves as P. emaculata's uredinial and telial host. In this study the population dynamics of P. emaculata was analyzed for the purpose of both epidemiological discovery and as a model for scientific attribution methods for rust. The first study used single spores across two states (Oklahoma and Virginia) and four years (2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014) to evaluate four previously described polymorphic microsatellite loci. The purpose of this study was to generate a conceptual analysis of population dynamics in a field setting over a series of years in two geographically distant states. Use of fixation indices showed low to moderate differentiation between states and moderate differentiation between years. All populations were discrete, with minute amounts of genotype migration between years. This result points to a similar inoculums source. The second study compared the field samples from the first study to growth chamber populations generated at Oklahoma State University over the same years to evaluate if the analysis method could provide scientific attribution. Similar origin populations with an unknown environment and to a completely unknown population were used to test the analysis method. The results showed the four microsatellite loci could be used to correlate populations of the same identity or reject the attribution of a population to the known population, but not to provide scientific attribution with the statistical support needed for a microbial forensic investigation. This study was unique in the use of single spores and a rust model for microbial forensic applications. With more microsatellite loci this method could be statistically sound enough for scientific attribution for a microbial forensic investigation.Entomology & Plant Pathology (MS
