A gene knockout (abbreviation: KO) is a genetic technique in which one of an organism's genes are made inoperative ("knocked out" of the organism). Also known as knockout organisms or simply knocko...
IP traceback is a name given to any method for reliably determining the origin of a packet on the Internet. Due to the trusting nature of the IP protocol, the source IP address of a packet is not a...
In linear algebra, two slightly different notions of linear independence are used: the linear independence of a family of vectors, and the linear independence of a set of vectors.
Polyphosphazenes include a wide range of hybrid inorganic-organic polymers with a number of different skeletal architectures that contain alternating phosphorus and nitrogen atoms.[1] Nearly all of...
