The blastocysts were transferred to the oviducts of recipients that were synchronized either with the donors (synchronous) or 1 day later than the donors (asynchronous).
This attitude has distracted attention away from the educational benefits of asynchronous electronic communication.
This metaphor naturally lends itself to an intuitive graphical representation of connectors and their composition that strongly resembles (asynchronous) electronic circuit diagrams.
Asynchronous infections could not be fitted by equation 2 because there was no oscillation in the profiles.
In the current architecture all connections are point-to-point and asynchronous.
We consider an agent-based model of financial markets with asynchronous order arrival in continuous time.
In general, however, circuits must be considered as asynchronous and physical space-time as relativistic.
Asynchronous circuits provide an alternative class of circuits.
The existence of the energy function ensures that under the guidance of an asynchronous update rule, such networks relax to fixed point attractors.
State and national curriculum authorities are increasingly encouraging students and teachers to use asynchronous online discussions to communicate both with known and unknown participants.
A special newsgroup was set up, in preference to a 'chat' or email facility, in order to optimise the conditions for collective, structured, asynchronous communication.
In person/machine communication, the phone may be replaced by a web interface, but the email analogy remains a viable model for asynchronous dialogue.
Between people, synchronous communication is often face to face or by phone, while asynchronous communication is often achieved using email.
Such dialogues are essentially hybrid: they involve both synchronous interaction typical of face-toface conversations and asynchronous interaction as found in written or email communication.
In our study the superiority of male 1 as regards total penetration rate is due to the higher proportion of polyspermic and asynchronous oocytes.
