The change of plasma C-reactive protein and metabolite concentrations, and MPS sick degree score in Landrase selected for resistance to MPS, Large Yorkshire selected for immune performances and the crossbreed

Swine Mycoplasma Hyopneumoniea, hp, is known as a major factor to affect for the specific pneumonia (MPS). This damages is very serious because carrier rate of hp in piglets from 3 to 4 months of age is very high, the rate of piglets that the response of antibody to hp shows positive is 80 % over, and the rate that has very terrible tissue from MPS is 51% in Japanese pig farm. We bred a resistant strain to MPS by selection to decrease MPS pathogenic condition over 5 generations using Landrase (MPS strain), and a high immune performance strain by selection for peripheral phagocytosis, complement activity and antibody production against erysipelatous vaccine using Large Yorkshire (HI strain)

CBR model for the intelligent management of customer support centers

[EN] In this paper, a new CBR system for Technology Management Centers is presented. The system helps the staff of the centers to solve customer problems by finding solutions successfully applied to similar problems experienced in the past. This improves the satisfaction of customers and ensures a good reputation for the company who manages the center and thus, it may increase its profits. The CBR system is portable, flexible and multi-domain. It is implemented as a module of a help-desk application to make the CBR system as independent as possible of any change in the help-desk. Each phase of the reasoning cycle is implemented as a series of configurable plugins, making the CBR module easy to update and maintain. This system has been introduced and tested in a real Technology Management center ran by the Spanish company TISSAT S.A.Financial support from Spanish government under grant PROFIT FIT-340001-2004-11 is gratefully acknowledgeHeras Barberá, SM.; Garcia Pardo Gimenez De Los Galanes, JA.; Ramos-Garijo Font De Mora, R.; Palomares Chust, A.; Julian Inglada, VJ.; Rebollo Pedruelo, M.; Botti, V.
