    WAFLEX has been applied extensively, especially in southern Africa and South America, including for: Water allocation: between Eswatini, South Africa and Mozambique on the transboundary Inkomati River, [2] [3] in the Conapu Basin in Trinidad, [4] in the Thuli Basin, Zimbabwe, [5] and to model shortages and water allocation in the middle Heihe River in China.

  3. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    A plant cell wall was first observed and named (simply as a "wall") by Robert Hooke in 1665. [3] However, "the dead excrusion product of the living protoplast" was forgotten, for almost three centuries, being the subject of scientific interest mainly as a resource for industrial processing or in relation to animal or human health.

  4. Free list - Wikipedia

    It operates by connecting unallocated regions of memory together in a linked list, using the first word of each unallocated region as a pointer to the next. It is most suitable for allocating from a memory pool, where all objects have the same size. Free lists make the allocation and deallocation operations very simple.

  5. Xylan - Wikipedia

    Structure of xylan in hardwood. [1] Plant cell wall is composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin and glycoproteins. [2] Hemicelluloses (a heterogeneous group of polysaccharides) cross-link glycans interlocking the cellulose fibers and form a mesh like structure to deposit other polysaccharides.

    The chemical composition of the cell wall varies widely between taxonomic groups, and even between different stages of the cell cycle: in land plants it consists primarily of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, while algae make use of carrageenan and agar, fungi use chitin, and bacterial cell walls contain peptidoglycan. cell-free DNA (cfDNA ...

    In economics, the field of public finance deals with three broad areas: macroeconomic stabilization, the distribution of income and wealth, and the allocation of resources. . Much of the study of the allocation of resources is devoted to finding the conditions under which particular mechanisms of resource allocation lead to Pareto efficient outcomes, in which no party's situation can be ...

    Financial modeling is the task of building an abstract representation (a model) of a real world financial situation. [1] This is a mathematical model designed to represent (a simplified version of) the performance of a financial asset or portfolio of a business, project, or any other investment.

  9. Phragmoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmoplast

    The cell plate will transform into the new cell wall once cytokinesis is complete. The phragmoplast is a plant cell specific structure that forms during late cytokinesis . It serves as a scaffold for cell plate assembly and subsequent formation of a new cell wall separating the two daughter cells.
