In computer science , a linear bounded automaton plural linear bounded automata , abbreviated LBA is a restricted form of nondeterministic Turing machine . Operation Linear bounded automata satisfy the following three conditions Its input alphabet includes two special symbols, serving as left and right endmarkers. Its transitions may not print other symbols over the endmarkers. Its transitions may neither move to the left of the left endmarker or to the right of the right endmarker. As in the definition of Turing machine s, it possesses a tape made up of cells that can contain symbols from a finite set finite alphabet , a head that can read from or write to one cell on the tape at a time and can be moved, and a finite number of states. It differs from a Turing machine in that while the tape ... needed date August 2011 This limitation makes the LBA a somewhat more accurate model of computer s that actually exist than a Turing machine, whose definition assumes unlimited tape.

This problem can be phrased succinctly in the language of computational complexity theory as First LBA problem Is NSPACE O n DSPACE O n ? The second LBA problem is whether the class of languages accepted by LBA is closed under complement. Second LBA problem Is NSPACE O n co NSPACE O n ? As observed already by Kuroda, a negative answer to the second LBA problem would imply a negative answer to the first problem. But the second LBA problem has an affirmative answer, which is implied by the Immerman Szelepcs nyi theorem proved only more than 20 years after the problem was raised.

In medicine and pharmacology , a ligand binding assay LBA is a technique to identify the presence of a molecule and quantify it.

Lakowicz. 1991 Topics in Fluorescence Spectroscopy Biochemical applications. ref As such, ligand binding assays are superset of radiobinding assay s, which are the conceptual inverse of radioimmunoassay s RIA . Some newer types are called mix and measure assays because they do not require separation of bound from free ligand. ref name de Jong2005 Historically, LBA techniques were used extensively to quantify hormone or hormone receptor concentrations in plasma or in tissue. The Ligand biochemistry ligand binding assay methodology quantified the concentration of the hormone in the test material by comparing the effects of the test sample to the results of varying amounts of known protein the ligand . A prominent use was the test for Breast cancer classification Receptor status classification of estrogen receptor status ER and progesterone receptor PR in breast cancer breast tumors . The LBA was performed by homogenization of fresh or frozen tumor tissue, incubation of centrifuged cytosol with increasing quantities of radioactive estradiol estradiol 17 , followed by separation of unbound estradiol with dextran coated charcoal DCC to quantify the concentration of high affinity estrogen binding sites ER using standard amounts of known protein. ref name McGuire1973 cite pmid 4345203 ref It was replaced by immunohistochemistry IHC , which may be superior to LBA for assessing estrogen receptor ER status in primary breast cancer because it is easier, safer, and less expensive, and has an equivalent or better ability to predict response to Adjuvant therapy adjuvant endocrine therapy. ref name Harvey1999 cite pmid 10334533 ref ref name Jasani2006 ... more details

Unreferenced date February 2007 In storage virtualization , virtual disk , or vdisk , is a virtual logical disk or volume to which a host or application performs I O operations. Generally provided by a storage virtualization device and applicable mainly to Fibre Channel storage area network FC SAN infrastructures. Presently, the term vdisk is used in HP StorageWorks HP EVA disk arrays and in IBM SAN Volume Controller . The disk is classed as virtual due to the way it is mapped to the physical storage capacity it represents. In most virtual storage systems a meta data mapping table is held which translates the incoming virtual disk identifier, and LBA logical block addressing to a physical disk identifier and LBA. The virtualization granularity depends on the implementation. Some virtualized systems simply provide what may be thought of more as disk aggregation and so the granularity is a physical disk itself. True virtualization systems actually break down the physical disks into smaller chunks or extents. This can provide a performance benefit by spreading a single virtual disk across many physical disks therefore getting more concurrent access than a non virtualized system. V disc is also a record label of musical tunes especially recorded for soldiers of the World War II.
