Medical management of dairy heifers from birth to breeding
Creators: name: Studer, Erich
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1986

description: The future of a dairy operation depends on the successful raising or procurement of heifer calves that will potentially equal and preferably exceed the milk production of the existing herd. In a modern dairy where rigid culling is practiced, 20-30% of the milking herd is usually replaced annually. Since mortality rates for young calves often exceed 20% under some management conditions, it is imperative that as many calves as possible be raised to maturity. This requires various disease control measures, including proper dry cow management, suitable calving facilities, colostrum feeding and navel disinfection in newborn calves, appropriate housing and adequate nutrition in growing calves. The following management procedures, adopted over many years of experience and research at Carnation Research Farm have been effective in reducing calfhood mortality to less than 3%.

Field studies of protective shelters for beef calves
Creators: name: Olson, David P.
Publisher: name: The Bovine Practitioner
Year: 1986

description: For the past 8 years, research scientists at the University of Idaho have conducted a series of controlled experiments designed to determine the effects of cold exposure on young calves. This work stemmed, in part, from field observations suggesting an association between exposure of calves to cold temperatures and excessive moisture under field conditions and incidence of the ‘weak calf syndrome’. Results of the experiments indicated that young calves are highly susceptible to the effects of cold exposure and that this stressor may be a direct or indirect cause of death of these animals. Life-threatening changes observed in severely cold stressed calves include subnormal body temperature, decreased concentration of blood glucose, decreased total number of leukocytes in blood, temporary failure of calves to absorb colostral immunoglobulins, and decreased aortic blood pressure and heart rate. Respiratory failure is the usual cause of death of severely cold stressed calves. Other changes commonly observed in cold-exposed young calves include intensive shivering, physical weakness, depression, reluctance to nurse, changes in concentration of blood constituents other than glucose, and extensive hemorrhage and straw-colored edema beneath the skin of the extremities.

description: We perform a systematic study, in eleven dimensional supergravity, of the geometry of wrapped brane configurations admitting $AdS_2$ limits. Membranes wrapping holomorphic curves in Calabi-Yau manifolds are found to exhibit some novel features; in particular, for fourfolds or threefolds, the gravitational effect of the branes on the overall transverse space is only weakly restricted by the kinematics of the Killing spinor equation. We also study the $AdS_2$ limits of the wrapped brane supergravity descriptions. For membranes wrapped in a two-fold, we derive a set of $AdS_2$ supersymmetry conditions which upon analytic continuation coincide precisely with those for the half-BPS bubbling geometries of LLM. From membranes wrapped in a three-fold, we obtain a set of $AdS_2$ supersymmetry conditions which upon analytic continuation describe a class of spacetimes which we identify as quarter-BPS bubbling geometries in M-theory, with $SO(4)\times SO(3)\times U(1)$ isometry in Riemannian signature. We also study fivebranes wrapping a special lagrangian five-cycle in a fivefold, in the presence of membranes wrapping holomorphic curves, and employ the wrapped brane supersymmetry conditions to derive a classification of the general minimally supersymmetric $AdS_2$ geometry in M-theory.

description: A compact modulated birefringence-measurement system has been developed for use in microgravity fluid physics applications with non-Newtonian fluids such as polymer solutions. This instrument uses a dual-crystal transverse electro-optical modulator capable of modulation frequencies in excess of 100 MHz. The two crystals are modulated 180° out of phase from each other. The theoretical framework governing the development of this instrument using the Mueller–Stokes polarization matrices is discussed. Several ground-based experiments are performed to compare this system with the theoretical results. Results from this transverse electro-optical modulator-based birefringence-measurement system agree well with the theory. The instrument is also very stable and robust, making it suitable for the extreme acceleration environment to be encountered in a NASA Black Brandt sounding rocket.

description: Gli enti di soccorso preospedaliero del sopraceneri hanno sviluppato una piattaforma per la gestione delle funzionalità legate ai vari aspetti delle loro attività denominata NOTiAnet. Attualmente sono state implementate sezioni che consentono la gestione delle attività amministrative, dei turni relativi ai singoli collaboratori e dei vari aspetti legati alla realizzazione dei progetti. Si è dunque voluto estendere l’attuale implementazione, inserendo all’interno della piattaforma, una sezione dedicata alla formazione degli utenti. Al fine si è ideata un’architettura, del tutto conforme e similare a quella utilizzata all’interno delle altre funzionalità, in modo da rendere la nuova sezione coerente sia dal punto di vista grafico, che dal punto di vista gestionale, rispettando e valorizzando i requisiti posti dal committente. L’implementazione effettiva viene eseguita attraverso l’ausilio di linguaggi di programmazioni conosciuti e largamente diffusi, come PHP, JavaScript, CSS e SQL, e attraverso l’inserimento di framework e plug-in, necessari per facilitare l’ottenimento degli obiettivi. Il prodotto finale risulta essere in linea con quanto prefissato e ciò trova pieno riscontro nell’approvazione del committente. --- The pre-hospital emergency services of the sopraceneri have developed a platform, called NOTiAnet, for the management of the functions related to the various aspects of their activities. It was therefore decided to extend the current implementation by inserting a section dedicated to user training within the platform. For the purpose, an architecture has been devised, fully compliant and similar to that used within the other functions, in order to make the new section coherent both from the graphic point of view and from the management point of view, respecting and enhancing the requirements set by the client. The actual implementation is performed through the aid of well-known and widely used programming languages, such as PHP, JavaScript, CSS and SQL, and through the inclusion of frameworks and plug-ins, necessary to facilitate the achievement of the objectives. The final product is in line with what has been set and this is fully reflected in the customer's approval.

description: The resistance to fracture of reversible biopolymer hydrogels is an important control factor of the cutting/slicing and eating characteristics of food gels. It is also critical for their utilization in tissue engineering, for which mechanical protection of encapsulated components is needed. Its dependence on loading rate and, recently, on the density and strength of cross-links has been investigated. But no attention was paid so far to solvent nor to environment effects. Here we report a systematic study of crack dynamics in gels of gelatin in water/glycerol mixtures. We show on this model system that: (i) increasing solvent viscosity slows down cracks; (ii) soaking with solvent increases markedly gel fragility; (iii) tuning the viscosity of the (miscible) environmental liquid affects crack propagation via diffusive invasion of the crack tip vicinity. The results point toward the fact that fracture occurs by viscoplastic chain pull-out. This mechanism, as well as the related phenomenology, should be common to all reversibly cross-linked (physical) gels.

description: Abstract: "An improved outer-approximation algorithm for MINLP optimization is proposed in this paper which is aimed at the solution of problems where convexity conditions may not hold. The proposed algorithm starts by solving the NLP relaxation. If an integer solution is not found, a sequence of iterations consisting of NLP subproblems and MILP master problems is solved. The proposed MILP master problem is based on the outer-approximation/equality-relaxation algorithm and features an exact penalty function that allows violations of linearizations of nonconvex constraints. The search proceeds until no improvement is found in the NLP subproblems. Computational experience is presented on a set of 18 test problems. The results show that the proposed method has a high degree of reliability for finding the global optimum in nonconvex problems."

description: In this study we will test three outstanding hypotheses on the neural basis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The first is the long-standing theory of autism as a disorder of connectivity, that predicts that functional connectivity between brain regions, as measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), should be atypical in autism. The second is the hypothesis of autism as a social cognition disorder, suggesting that the amygdala may play a key role in the detection of altered connectivity in ASD. The third is the hypothesis that the multiple subtypes of ASD usually encompassed in a single diagnosis could be distinguished and characterized using neuroimaging data. To this end, we will use functional MRI data from two large public databases (ABIDE I & II) and preregistered analyses aimed at minimizing analytical flexibility and maximizing replicability.

description: Rogue waves in the nonlocal PT-symmetric nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation are studied by Darboux transformation. Three types of rogue waves are derived, and their explicit expressions in terms of Schur polynomials are presented. These rogue waves show a much wider variety than those in the local NLS equation. For instance, the polynomial degrees of their denominators can be not only $n(n+1)$, but also $n(n-1)+1$ and $n^2$, where $n$ is an arbitrary positive integer. Dynamics of these rogue waves is also examined. It is shown that these rogue waves can be bounded for all space and time, or develop collapsing singularities, depending on their types as well as values of their free parameters. In addition, the solution dynamics exhibits rich patterns, most of which have no counterparts in the local NLS equation.

description: We study 2-field inflation models based on the ``large-volume'' flux compactification of type IIB string theory. The role of the inflaton is played by a Kähler modulus τcorresponding to a 4-cycle volume and its axionic partner θ. The freedom associated with the choice of Calabi Yau manifold and the non-perturbative effects defining the potential V(τ, θ) and kinetic parameters of the moduli bring an unavoidable statistical element to theory prior probabilities within the low energy landscape. The further randomness of (τ, θ) initial conditions allows for a large ensemble of trajectories. Features in the ensemble of histories include ``roulette tractories'', with long-lasting inflations in the direction of the rolling axion, enhanced in number of e-foldings over those restricted to lie in the τ-trough. Asymptotic flatness of the potential makes possible an eternal stochastic self-reproducing inflation. A wide variety of potentials and inflaton trajectories agree with the cosmic microwave background and large scale structure data. In particular, the observed scalar tilt with weak or no running can be achieved in spite of a nearly critical de Sitter deceleration parameter and consequently a low gravity wave power relative to the scalar curvature power.

A case study for reactor network synthesis : the vinyl chloride process

description: Abstract: "A key objective of the integrated reactor network synthesis approach is the development of waste minimizing process flowsheets (Lakshmanan and Biegler, 1994). With increasing environmental concerns in process design, there is a particularly strong need to avoid the generation of wasteful or harmful byproducts within the reactor network. This also avoids expensive treatment and separation costs downstream in the process. In this study, we focus on the application of integrated reactor network synthesis concepts for the vinyl chloride process. Vinyl chloride is currently produced by a balanced process from ethylene, chlorine and oxygen with three separate reaction sections: oxychlorination of ethylene, direct chlorination of ethylene and pyrolysis of ethylene dichloride, with the hydrogen chloride produced in the pyrolysis reactor used completely in the oxychlorination reactor. Each of these reaction sections generate chlorinated hydrocarbons and carbon oxides as byproducts. Detailed kinetic models for the three reaction sections are used to develop optimal reactor networks which improve the conversion of ethylene to vinyl chloride product and minimize the production of by-products. This case study presents an application of the mixed integer nonlinear programming based reactor network synthesis strategy (Lakshmanan and Biegler, 1996a). A candidate flowsheet is proposed based on these results and a set of recommendations is given to improve the selectivity of vinyl chloride production."

description: Severe enteritis in neonatal calves can very quickly lead to the exitus of the animal. Besides infectious causes dietary mistakes play an important role. The pathogenesis of diarrhea is basically understood: The body loses fluid with the electrolytes provided with the nutrition due to malabsorbtion. This reason and the hematodyscrasia resulting from the inflammatory process lead to disturbance of the circulation together with recognizable clinical symptoms like cold distal parts of the extremities, lower skin turgor, sunken eyes and apathetic bedding down.

Ileus and Subileus in the young bovine animal
Creators: name: Dirksen, G.

Year: 1986

description: Forms of ileus and subileus occurring in the calf are predominantly as in the adult bovine animal, but there are certain differences in the younger animal concerning aetiology and pathogenesis of digestive tract obstruction as well as incidence, clinical appearance, diagnosis and therapy. In addition, types of ileus not yet observed in the adult ruminant occur in the young animal. The differences mentioned could be due to, firstly, the fact that the gastrointestinal tract of the young animal is in the process of development and differs, sometimes considerably, from that of the adult as regards anatomy, topography and function. In addition, the specific symptoms appear to be influenced by the comparatively lower sensitivity to pain of younger individuals. As yet, this branch of buiatrics has on the whole not been closely studied; however, some communications concerning certain ileus forms are available. The following review is of necessity restricted to the depiction of some characteristic aspects, due to the multiplicity of possible tract obstructions and the space available.

Illumination of the photodiode by the light-emitting diode gives rise to an additional optical feedback within each unit cell, which strongly affects resonant properties and nonlinear response of the meta-atom. In particular, we demonstrate that symmetry breaking occurs upon a certain threshold magnitude of the incident wave intensity resulting in an abrupt emergence of second-harmonic generation, which was not originally available, as well as in the reduced third-harmonic signal.

description: We report the discovery of a new double-image quasar that was found during a search for gravitational lenses in the southern sky. Radio source PMN J1838-3427 is composed of two flat-spectrum components with separation 1", flux density ratio 14:1 and matching spectral indices, in VLA and VLBA images. Ground-based BRI images show the optical counterpart (total I=18.6) is also double with the same separation and position angle as the radio components. An HST/WFPC2 image reveals the lens galaxy. The optical flux ratio (27:1) is higher than the radio value probably due to differential extinction of the components by the lens galaxy. An optical spectrum of the bright component contains quasar emission lines at z=2.78 and several absorption features, including prominent Ly-alpha absorption. The lens galaxy redshift could not be measured but is estimated to be z=0.36 +/- 0.08. The image configuration is consistent with the simplest plausible models for the lens potential. The flat radio spectrum and observed variability of PMN J1838-3427 suggest the time delay between flux variations of the components is measurable, and could thus provide an independent measurement of H_0.

description: This paper analyzes the computational performance of the deterministic optimization approach for the Security Constrained Unit Commitment problem (SCUC) addressing thermal generating units, that was developed in its companion paper. The technique proposed in the first part is based on suitable integer cutting planes, specific for the SCUC problem, and a Branch and Bound search which incorporates the cuts and results in a particular Branch and Cut algorithm for the SCUC problem. In this paper, the performance of the proposed cuts is properly illustrated. Then, the application of the proposed Branch and Cut algorithm is exemplified with two case studies and their variants, with the aim of showing the performance of the approach for problems of different dimensions and characteristics. Comparisons with other deterministic solvers is also carried out.
Single hole dynamics in the Kondo Necklace and Bilayer Heisenberg models on a square lattice

description: We study single hole dynamics in the bilayer Heisenberg and Kondo Necklace models. Those models exhibit a magnetic order-disorder quantum phase transition as a function of the interlayer coupling J_perp. At strong coupling in the disordered phase, both models have a single-hole dispersion relation with band maximum at p = (π,π) and an effective mass at this p-point which scales as the hopping matrix element t. In the Kondo Necklace model, we show that the effective mass at p = (π,π) remains finite for all considered values of J_perp such that the strong coupling features of the dispersion relation are apparent down to weak coupling. In contrast, in the bilayer Heisenberg model, the effective mass diverges at a finite value of J_perp. This divergence of the effective mass is unrelated to the magnetic quantum phase transition and at weak coupling the dispersion relation maps onto that of a single hole doped in a planar antiferromagnet with band maximum at p = (π/2,π/2). We equally study the behavior of the quasiparticle residue in the vicinity of the magnetic quantum phase transition both for a mobile and static hole. In contrast to analytical approaches, our numerical results do not unambiguously support the fact that the quasiparticle residue of the static hole vanishes in the vicinity of the critical point. The above results are obtained with a generalized version of the loop algorithm to include single hole dynamics on lattice sizes up to 20 X 20.

description: This two-paper series proposes a novel deterministic optimization approach for the Unit Commitment problem (UC), more specifically for the Security Constrained Unit Commitment problem (SCUC) addressing thermal generating units. In the first part, a suitable mathematical programming model is presented, which contemplates all the inherent constraints and a single set of binary variables, i.e. the on/off status of each generator at each time period, leading to a convex Mixed Integer Quadratic Programming (MIQP) formulation. This gives rise to a very difficult optimization problem, hard to solve through deterministic approaches for high-dimensional instances. To overcome this challenge, an effective solution methodology based on valid integer cutting planes is proposed, and implemented through a Branch and Cut search for finding the optimal solution. In the second of this two-paper series, the application of the model and proposed approach is illustrated with several examples of different dimensions and characteristics.

description: Magnetization reversal of interconnected Kagome artificial spin ice was studied by the first-order reversal curve (FORC) technique based on the magneto-optical Kerr effect and magnetoresistance measurements. The magnetization reversal exhibits a distinct six-fold symmetry with the external field orientation. When the field is parallel to one of the nano-bar branches, the domain nucleation/propagation and annihilation processes sensitively depend on the field cycling history and the maximum field applied. When the field is nearly perpendicular to one of the branches, the FORC measurement reveals the magnetic interaction between the Dirac strings and orthogonal branches during the magnetization reversal process. Our results demonstrate that the FORC approach provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the magnetic interaction in the magnetization reversal processes of spin-frustrated systems.
An Extension Theorem for Non-Transitive Preferences

Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Economia Marco Biagi ? Universit� di Modena e Reggio Emilia
Year: 2005

description: In his classical contribution Szpilrajn (1930) shows that any quasi-ordering (a reflexive and transitive binary relation) can be extended to an ordering (a complete quasi-ordering). The purpose of this paper is to provide an analogous extension result for non-transitive preferences. The case of quasi-transitivity (transitivity of the strict preference) is trivial since it suffices to `complete' the original preference by putting indifference for all pairs of alternatives that are non-comparable. The focus of our analysis is a different notion of non-transitivity called $sigma$-transitivity and put forward bySen (1970).Our main result is an extension theorem which shows that any $sigma$-transitive preference can be extended to a complete preference preserving$sigma$-transitivity. We also provide the dual result in terms of a strict preference approach.Finally, we show an application to the theory of choice by providing a new characterization of the Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference.

description: In this paper we consider the Newton?iterative method for solving weakly nonlinear finite difference systems of the form F (u) = Au + G(u) = 0, where the Jacobian matrix G?(u) satisfies an affine invariant Lipschitz condition. We also consider a modification of the method for which we can improve the likelihood of convergence from initial approximations that may be outside the attraction ball of the Newton?iterative method. We analyse the convergence of this damped method in the framework of the line search strategy. Numerical experiments on a diffusion?convection problem show the effectiveness of the method.

description: Firms situated within innovation networks require specific abilities to acquire, from their network partners, the knowledge and the complementary assets that facilitate their innovation performance. Drawing on the resource-based view and social network theory, this study identifies two types of network capabilities: network structural capability and network relational capability. The purpose of this study is to deepen our understanding of the precise manner in which these network capabilities affect the networked firm’s innovation performance. Based on the data obtained from Chinese high-tech firms, this study’s findings suggest that network structural capability has a greater positive impact on innovation performance than network relational capability does within an exploration-orientated network. However, network relational capability is more positively associated with innovation performance within an exploitation-orientated network.

description: A Higgs-Yang Mills monopole scattering spherical symmetrically along light cones is given. The left incoming anti-self-dual αplane fields are holomorphic, but the right outgoing SD βplane fields are antiholomorphic, meanwhile the diffeomorphism symmetry is preserved with mutual inverse affine rapidity parameters μand μ^{-1}. The Dirac wave function scattering in this background also factorized respectively into the (anti)holomorphic amplitudes. The holomorphic anomaly is realized by the center term of a quasi Hopf algebra corresponding to an integrable conform affine massive field. We find explicit Nahm transformation matrix(Fourier-Mukai transformation) between the Higgs YM BPS (flat) bundles (D modules) and the affinized blow up ADHMN twistors (perverse sheafs). Thus establish the algebra for the Hecke-'t Hooft operators in the Hecke correspondence of the geometric Langlands Program.

description: Abstract: "We consider the problem of the interaction of a stationary viscous fluid with an elastic solid that undergoes large deformation. The fluid is modeled by the stationary incompressible Navier- Stokes equations in an Eulerian frame of reference, while a Lagrangian reference frame and large deformation-small strain theory is used for the solid. A variational formulation of the problem is developed that insures satisfaction of continuity of interface tractions and velocities. The variational formulation is approximated by a Galerkin finite element method, yielding a system of nonlinear algebraic equations in unknown fluid velocities and pressures and solid displacements. A Newton-like method is introduced for solution of the discrete system. The method employs a modified Jacobian that enables decomposition into separate fluid and solid subdomains. This domain decomposition avoids possible ill-conditioning of the Jacobian, as well as the need to compute and store geometric coupling terms between fluid and interface shape. The capability of the methodology is illustrated by solution of a problem of the flow-induced large deformation of an elastic infinite cylinder."
Driving sustainability: proposed business model for SMEs in the cosmetic industry
Creators: name: Sharma, Palak
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: The cosmetic industry is rapidly growing, and everyday consumers are becoming more aware of climate change and its effect on planet earth. With the fashion industry coming up with initiatives like #Imadeyourclothes, cosmetic companies need to step up and answer the consumers about sustainability and transparency in the beauty industry. The researcher wants to look at the SMEs in the beauty industry, their sustainability policies and the business models they use. In 2015, since the launch of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, the larger cosmetic companies had already been a part of the change towards sustainability. But there hasn't been much done in the cosmetic industry in the research area regarding the business models they use and how they opt for more sustainable business approach.The study has been performed using in-depth interviews and thematic analysis forexamining the data. The study of Sustainability Reports of large cosmetic businesses incorporates the Triple Bottom Line (TBL), which collaborates the business's environmental, social and economic aspects for enhanced quality of living.Nevertheless, to implement these aspects, there is a need for innovation in the cosmetic industry concerning packaging, ingredients and transparency in the supply chain. It aimed to look at those that have successfully overcome the challenges. It seems necessary at this point to include innovation as a part of the business model to initiate sustainability across the supply chain and aim for an overall balanced outlook. The researcher's primary goal is to identify a business model that SMEs can use to be sustainable in the beauty industry and be circular in their waste management. While the business model may not have been tried and tested on a large scale, this could be the focus of the subsequent study.

description: Hybrid systems - more precisely, their mathematical models - can exhibit behaviors, like Zeno behaviors, that are absent in purely discrete or purely continuous systems. First, we observe that, in this context, the usual definition of reachability - namely, the reflexive and transitive closure of a transition relation - can be unsafe, ie, it may compute a proper subset of the set of states reachable in finite time from a set of initial states. Therefore, we propose safe reachability, which always computes a superset of the set of reachable states. Second, in safety analysis of hybrid and continuous systems, it is important to ensure that a reachability analysis is also robust wrt small perturbations to the set of initial states and to the system itself, since discrepancies between a system and its mathematical models are unavoidable. We show that, under certain conditions, the best Scott continuous approximation of an analysis A is also its best robust approximation. Finally, we exemplify the gap between the set of reachable states and the supersets computed by safe reachability and its best robust approximation.

description: Abstract: "Engineering design is a creative process in which the experience and knowledge of the designer and the design specifications are combined. Facing a new design task, an experienced designer will easily recall a similar case which he or she met before and make an appropriate adaptation of the previous design solution to fit the new situation. This paper proposes a new methodology for automating the use of previous situations and their solutions to plan the synthesis of new designs."

description: We have developed a completely new type of general-purpose CCD data acquisition system which enables one to drive any type of CCD using any type of clocking mode. A CCD driver system widely used before consisted of an analog multiplexer (MPX), a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and an operational amplifier. A DAC is used to determine high and low voltage levels and the MPX selects each voltage level using a TTL clock. In this kind of driver board, it is difficult to reduce the noise caused by a short of high and low level in MPX and also to select many kinds of different voltage levels. Recent developments in semiconductor IC enable us to use a very fast sampling ($\sim$ 10MHz) DAC with low cost. We thus develop the new driver system using a fast DAC in order to determine both the voltage level of the clock and the clocking timing. We use FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) to control the DAC. We have constructed the data acquisition system and found that the CCD functions well with our new system. The energy resolution of Mn K$α$ has a full-width at half-maximum of $\simeq$ 150 eV and the readout noise of our system is $\simeq$ 8 e$^-$.

description: We present the discovery of CLASS B0739+366, a new gravitational lens system from the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey. Radio imaging of the source with the Very Large Array (VLA) shows two compact components separated by $0\farcs54$, with a flux density ratio of $\sim$ 6:1. High-resolution follow-up observations using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 1.7 GHz detect weak, parity-reversed jet emission from each of the radio components. Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS F160W observations detect infrared counterparts to the lensed images, as well as an extended object between them which we identify as the lensing galaxy. Redshifts for the galaxy and lensed source have not yet been obtained. For typical lens and source redshifts of $z=0.5$ and $z=1.5$, respectively, preliminary mass modeling predicts a time delay of $\sim7h^{-1}$ days in a flat $Ω_{M}=1.0$ universe. The small predicted time delay and weak radio components will make CLASS B0739+366 a challenging target for Hubble constant determination.

description: Executing multiple applications on a single MPSoC brings the major challenge of satisfying multiple quality requirements regarding real-time, energy, etc. Hybrid application mapping denotes the combination of design-time analysis with run-time application mapping. In this article, we present such a methodology, which comprises a design space exploration coupled with a formal performance analysis. This results in several resource reservation configurations, optimized for multiple objectives, with verified real-time guarantees for each individual application. The Pareto-optimal configurations are handed over to run-time management which searches for a suitable mapping according to this information. To provide any real-time guarantees, the performance analysis needs to be composable and the influence of the applications on each other has to be bounded. We achieve this either by spatial or a novel temporal isolation for tasks and by exploiting composable NoCs. With the proposed temporal isolation, tasks of different applications can be mapped to the same resource while with spatial isolation, one computing resource can be exclusively used by only one application. The experiments reveal that the success rate in finding feasible application mappings can be increased by the proposed temporal isolation by up to 30% and energy consumption can be reduced compared to spatial isolation.
