TL;DR: A framework for the construction and use of practical, testable quality models for requirements, design and implementation is suggested that may be used directly to build, compare, and assess better quality software products.
Abstract: Concrete and useful suggestions about what constitutes quality software have always been elusive. I suggest a framework for the construction and use of practical, testable quality models for requirements, design and implementation. Such information may be used directly to build, compare, and assess better quality software products.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically investigated tourism risk literature from a gender perspective, with an aim to map out what is known about the gendered travel risk and what needs to be explored further.

TL;DR: In this article, a frameshift mutation, F139WfsX24, was found to cause complete loss of TRESK function and that the mutant subunit suppresses wild-type channel function through a dominant negative effect, thus explaining the dominant penetrance of this allele.
Abstract: Migraine with aura is a common, debilitating, recurrent headache disorder associated with transient and reversible focal neurological symptoms. A role has been suggested for the two-pore domain (K2P) potassium channel, TWIK-related spinal cord potassium channel (TRESK, encoded by KCNK18), in pain pathways and general anaesthesia. We therefore examined whether TRESK is involved in migraine by screening the KCNK18 gene in subjects diagnosed with migraine. Here we report a frameshift mutation, F139WfsX24, which segregates perfectly with typical migraine with aura in a large pedigree. We also identified prominent TRESK expression in migraine-salient areas such as the trigeminal ganglion. Functional characterization of this mutation demonstrates that it causes a complete loss of TRESK function and that the mutant subunit suppresses wild-type channel function through a dominant-negative effect, thus explaining the dominant penetrance of this allele. These results therefore support a role for TRESK in the pathogenesis of typical migraine with aura and further support the role of this channel as a potential therapeutic target.

TL;DR: This paper investigates the problem of network-based leader-following consensus of nonlinear multi-agent systems via distributed impulsive control by taking network-induced delays into account and derives a general consensus criterion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption capacity of pre-treated biomass of D. potatorum was investigated and it was shown that pre-treatment of the native biomass with calcium chloride and subsequent thermal treatment considerably improved the swelling properties and physical stability of the biomass granules.
