Corporate foresight is applied with the expectation that it will help firms to break away from path dependency, help decision makers to define superior courses of action, and ultimately enable superior firm performance.
This is consistent with the use of microarray data to define superior reference genes as outlined here, and previously in Arabidopsis [ 10].
Although Oryza sativa (rice) is a widely used model plant and important crop specie, there has been no comprehensive analysis carried out to define superior reference genes.
On the circular surface of the baseplate-instrumented Sawbones® cylinder, one screw hole was arbitrarily defined as superior, with anterior, inferior and posterior orientations defined thereafter in clockwise fashion, thereby mimicking a shoulder's right-sided glenoid orientation (Fig. 1).
In addition to existing AAL regions, left and right intraparietal sulcus (IPS) regions were defined, and superior, middle, and inferior temporal gyrus regions were separated into anterior, middle, and posterior sections based on planes F and D from the Rademacher scheme [11], for a total of 71 regions.
The subscapularis portions were defined as superior, middle, or inferior.
Moreover, no light modality has been defined as superior to the others.
Three anatomical landmarks were defined: the superior occipital sulcus (SOS), the transverse occipital sulcus (TOS), and the parieto-occipital sulcus (POS).
After RSAO field has been defined, left superior anterior oblique (LSAO) was added to meet an overlap shape "A" as in Figure 2(a)).
No sufficiently large randomized controlled studies have been performed as yet, and no light modality has been defined as superior to all.
