description: Contemporary software systems are composed of many components, which, in general, undergo phased and incremental development. In order to facilitate the corresponding construction process, it is important that the development team in charge has a good understanding of how individual software components typically evolve. Furthermore, software engineers need to be able to recognize abnormal patterns of growth with respect to size, structure, and complexity of the components and the resulting composite. Only if a development team understands the processes that underpin the evolution of software systems, will they be able to make better development choices. In this paper, we analyze recurring structural and evolutionary patterns that we have observed in public-domain software systems built using object-oriented programming languages. Based on our analysis, we discuss common growth patterns found in present-day component-based software systems and illustrate simple means to aid developers in achieving a better understanding of those patterns. As a consequence, we hope to raise the awareness level in the community on how component-based software systems tend to naturally evolve.

description: A series of albendazole-based copper(II) complexes with different counter anions, [Cu(Albz)(H2O)2](ClO4)2 (1), [Cu(Albz)2(Cl)]Cl∙2H2O (2), [Cu(Albz)2(NO3)](NO3) (3) and [Cu2(Albz)2(μ-SO4)2(H2O)2] (4) (Albz = albendazole), have been synthesized and characterized. Their structures and properties were characterized by elemental analysis, thermal analysis (TGA, DTG and DTA), IR, UV–vis and ESR spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry, electrical molar conductivity, and magnetic moment measurements. A square-planar geometry is proposed for 1, whereas the five-coordinate copper(II) complexes 2, 3 and 4 have a square pyramidal geometry. Theoretical calculations (DFT) using B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory corroborated the experimental results to investigate both the drug Albz and its copper(II) complex, 1. The hepatoprotective and antioxidative efficacy of Albz and 1-4 were evaluated against carbon tetrachloride induced acute hepatotoxicity in rats. Hepatotoxicity in experimental rats was evidenced by significant decrease in the antioxidant enzyme activities (SOD, GSH-S-transfers, and GSH-Rd levels). The results have strong impact for designing anticancer drugs, combined with their potential cytotoxic and antioxidant activities, which can be targeted selectively against cancer cells and increase their therapeutic index and advantages over other anticancer drugs. The DNA cleavage studies of Albz and its copper(II) complexes using genomic DNA indicated that Albz has no role in cleavage of DNA and, only 1 played a marked role in the DNA cleavage without any external additives.

The structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and further characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectra, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction and circular dichroism. Compounds 1 and 2 are isostructural (0D structures), which are extended to supramolecular 1D chains by hydrogen bonding. Compound 3 exhibits one-dimensional (1D) straight chain structures, which are further linked via hydrogen bond interactions to generate a 3D supramolecular architecture. Compound 4 displays a discrete molecular unit. Neighboring units are further linked by hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions to form a 3D supramolecular architecture. Compound 5 displays a 2D undulated network, further extended into a 3D supramolecular architecture through hydrogen bond interactions. Compound 6 possesses a 2D sheet structure. Auxiliary ligands and counteranions play an important role in formation of final frameworks, and the hydrogen-bonding interactions and π-π stacking interactions contributed to the formation of the diverse supramolecular architectures. Compounds 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 crystallize in chiral space groups, with the circular dichroism spectra exhibiting positive Cotton effects. Furthermore, the luminescent properties of 4-6 have been examined in the solid state at room temperature, and the different crystal structures influence emission spectra significantly.

description: ABSTRACTAn experiment is described for the undergraduate organic chemistry lab which compares microwave-induced organic reaction enhancement (MORE) to that of more traditional synthetic procedures. MORE and traditional reflux procedures for substituting thiocyanate, ethylamine and diethylamine nucleophiles for bromide in nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions on 1-bromo-2,4-dinitrobenzene are given. Recrystallization affords products of sufficient purity for characterization by 13C NMR, mass spectrometry and melting point. As students compare the two synthetic methods, MORE procedures are consistently observed to be quicker, easier, greener and result in higher yields. Student instructions, instructor notes and example NMR and mass spectra obtained by students are provided in Supplemental material.

description: This paper discusses the estimation of primary demand (i.e., the true demand before the stockout-based substitution effect occurs) for a heterogeneous-groups product category that is sold in the department store setting, based on historical sales data, product availability, and market share information. For such products, a hierarchical consumer choice model can better represent purchasing behavior. This means that choice occurs on multiple levels: A consumer might choose a particular product group on the first level and purchase a product within that chosen group on the second level. Hence, in the present study, we used the nested multinomial logit (NMNL) choice model for the hierarchical choice and combined it with non-homogeneous Poisson arrivals over multiple periods. The expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm was applied to estimate the primary demand while treating the observed sales data as an incomplete observation of that demand. We considered the estimation problem as an optimization problem in terms of the inter-product-group heterogeneity, and this approach relieves the revenue management system of the computational burden of using a nonlinear optimization package. We subsequently tested the procedure with simulated data sets. The results confirmed that our algorithm estimates the demand parameters effectively for data sets with a high level of inter-product-group heterogeneity.

description: The ﬁnancial performance of 240 farms in a drought-aﬀected agricultural region of Australia is analysed. The decadal study period included some years of widespread drought, as well as years with only subregional droughts or no drought. Some droughts created larger adverse ﬁnancial impacts than others. Mostly, the more droughts farms experienced, the worse was their ﬁnancial performance relative to farms within the same quantile of farm performance. Despite the incidence of drought, by the end of the decade, almost all the farm businesses were wealthier from increasing their farm size and becoming more crop dominant. Unexpectedly, consecutive years of drought had a signiﬁcant positive eﬀect on the operating proﬁt per hectare and retained proﬁt per hectare of farms in a majority of their respective quantiles. Many farms that experienced consecutive drought were forced to make structural changes, shifting away from livestock production towards additional cropping. These structural changes boosted farm performance over the decade. The incidence of drought aﬀected some measures of farm performance diﬀerently whilst others were aﬀected similarly. Understanding these metrics of farm performance and the structural changes underway in an agricultural region helps form a more complete view of drought impacts.

description: Context: Cationic liposomes can efficiently deliver siRNA to the lung by intravenous injection of cationic liposome/siRNA complexes (lipoplexes).Objective: The aim of this study was to examine a formulation of cationic liposomes for siRNA delivery to lung metastasis of breast tumor.Materials and methods: For the preparation of cationic liposomes, 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP) or dimethyldioctadecylammonium bromide (DDAB) as a cationic lipid and cholesterol (Chol) or 1,2-dioleoyl-l-α-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) as a neutral lipid were used. In vitro and in vivo gene silencing effects by cationic lipoplexes were evaluated after transfection into stably luciferase-expressing human breast tumor MCF-7-Luc cells and after intravenous injection into mice with lung MCF-7-Luc metastasis, respectively. Intracellular localization of siRNA after transfection into MCF-7 cells by cationic lipoplexes and biodistribution of siRNA after intravenous injection of cationic lipoplexes into the mice with lung metastasis were examined by confocal and fluorescent microscopy analyses, respectively.Results: In in vitro transfection, DOTAP/DOPE and DDAB/DOPE lipoplexes of luciferase siRNA strongly suppressed luciferase activity in MCF-7-Luc cells, but DOTAP/Chol and DDAB/Chol lipoplexes did not, although DOTAP/Chol and DDAB/Chol lipoplexes exhibited higher cellular uptake than DOTAP/DOPE and DDAB/DOPE lipoplexes. When their cationic lipoplexes were intravenously injected into mice with lung MCF-7-Luc metastasis, siRNAs were mainly accumulated in the lungs; however, the reduced luciferase activities in the lung-metastasized tumors were observed only by injections of DOTAP/Chol and DOTAP/DOPE lipoplexes, but not by DDAB/Chol and DDAB/DOPE lipoplexes.Conclusions: DOTAP-based liposomes might be useful as an in vivo siRNA delivery carrier that can induce gene silencing in lung-metastasized tumors.

description: Neural field models of firing rate activity typically take the form of integral equations with space-dependent axonal delays. Under natural assumptions on the synaptic connectivity we show how one can derive an equivalent partial differential equation (PDE) model that properly treats the axonal delay terms of the integral formulation. Our analysis avoids the so-called long-wavelength approximation that has previously been used to formulate PDE models for neural activity in two spatial dimensions. Direct numerical simulations of this PDE model show instabilities of the homogeneous steady state that are in full agreement with a Turing instability analysis of the original integral model. We discuss the benefits of such a local model and its usefulness in modeling electrocortical activity. In particular, we are able to treat 'patchy' connections, whereby a homogeneous and isotropic system is modulated in a spatially periodic fashion. In this case the emergence of a 'lattice- directed' traveling wave predicted by a linear instability analysis is confirmed by the numerical simulation of an appropriate set of coupled PDEs.

description: Silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) are used in a wide variety of products, prompting concerns regarding their potential environmental impacts. To accurately determine the toxicity of Ag-NPs it is necessary to differentiate between the toxicity of the nanoparticles themselves and the toxicity of ionic silver (Ag) released from them. This is not a trivial task given the reactive nature of Ag in solution, and its propensity for both adsorption and photoreduction. In the experiments reported here, we quantified the loss of silver from test solutions during standard ecotoxicity testing conducted using a variety of different test container materials and geometries. This sensitive 110mAg isotope tracing method revealed a substantial underestimation of the toxicity of dissolved Ag to the green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata when calculated only on the basis of the initial test concentrations. Furthermore, experiments with surface-functionalized Ag-NPs under standard algal growth inhibition test conditions also demonstrated extensive losses of Ag-NPs from the solution due to adsorption to the container walls, and the extent of loss was dependent on Ag-NP surface-functionality. These results hold important messages for researchers engaged in both environmental and human nanotoxicology testing, not only for Ag-NPs but also for other NPs with various tailored surface chemistries, where these phenomena are recognized but are also frequently disregarded in the experimental design and reporting.

description: The painting process of corrugated wall radiators of a distribution transformer is performed by a flow-down painting technique in the industrial field. This study has been prepared in accordance with ISO 12944-5. Correspondingly, this work is motivated by Epoxy 2-pack paints (4.3.4.2) to obtain minimum requirements for C3 atmospheric corrosivity categories (5.1.1). This standard requires from the vertical surface of the vessel of the transformer to be painted with epoxy paints that contain anti-corrosive pigments with a minimum of 100 µm dry film thickness. In the present study, a new production methodology called wet-on-wet (WOW) painting is developed which has never been used in industry. In addition, a modified response surface methodology (RSM) is proposed for designing, modeling, and optimizing the proposed process under unsteady environmental effects. The results indicate that the WOW painting can be applied to real industrial systems successfully by the aid of the proposed new RSM algorithm and provide remarkable time and cost savings.

description: Present generations are being repeatedly exposed to different types and doses of non-ionizing radiation (NIR) from wireless technologies (FM radio, TETRA and TV stations, GSM and UMTS phones/base stations, Wi-Fi networks, DECT phones). Although there is controversy on the published data regarding the non-thermal effects of NIR, studies have convincingly demonstrated bioeffects. Their results indicate that modulation, intensity, exposure duration and model system are important factors determining the biological response to irradiation. Attempting to address the dependence of NIR bioeffectiveness on these factors, apoptosis in the model biological system Drosophila melanogaster was studied under different exposure protocols. A signal generator was used operating alternatively under Continuous Wave (CW) or Frequency Modulation (FM) emission modes, at three power output values (10 dB, 0, −10 dB), under four carrier frequencies (100, 395, 682, 900 MHz). Newly emerged flies were exposed either acutely (6 min or 60 min on the 6th day), or repeatedly (6 min or 60 min daily for the first 6 days of their life). All exposure protocols resulted in an increase of apoptotic cell death (ACD) observed in egg chambers, even at very low electric field strengths. FM waves seem to have a stronger effect in ACD than continuous waves. Regarding intensity and temporal exposure pattern, EMF-biological tissue interaction is not linear in response. Intensity threshold for the induction of biological effects depends on frequency, modulation and temporal exposure pattern with unknown so far mechanisms. Given this complexity, translating such experimental data into possible human exposure guidelines is yet arbitrary.

description: This paper explores some of the important issues that inﬂuence the magnitude of receival site grain catchments in Australia. Changes in grain harvests, transport and grain handling technologies and costs; changes in farming systems, crop yields and harvesting capacity; investments in roads and on-farm storage and economies of size in grain receival infrastructure are shown in combination to aﬀect the size of grain catchments in major grain-growing regions of Australia over the last 30 years. The size of grain catchments that minimise growers’ costs of road transport of their harvested grain and their receival point charges in various time periods are determined. Diﬀerently shaped grain catchments are considered. The main ﬁnding is that the size of grain catchments that minimise farmers’ grain transport, oﬀ-farm storage and handling costs since the mid-1980s has consistently increased, principally due to lessening real costs of road transport, more on-farm storage and economies of size in grain receival, despite higher grain yields and a greater intensity of cropping. These ﬁndings are consistent with the observed reduction in the number of receival sites in many grain-growing regions of Australia. Site rationalisation is less evident in states where the receival network is owned and operated by a grower cooperative.

description: Present generations are being repeatedly exposed to different types and doses of non-ionizing radiation (NIR) from wireless technologies (FM radio, TETRA and TV stations, GSM and UMTS phones/base stations, Wi-Fi networks, DECT phones). Although there is controversy on the published data regarding the non-thermal effects of NIR, studies have convincingly demonstrated bioeffects. Their results indicate that modulation, intensity, exposure duration and model system are important factors determining the biological response to irradiation. Attempting to address the dependence of NIR bioeffectiveness on these factors, apoptosis in the model biological system Drosophila melanogaster was studied under different exposure protocols. A signal generator was used operating alternatively under Continuous Wave (CW) or Frequency Modulation (FM) emission modes, at three power output values (10 dB, 0, −10 dB), under four carrier frequencies (100, 395, 682, 900 MHz).

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Biodegradable plastic mulch films (BDM) are an alternative to conventional polyethylene (PE) mulches. Like PE mulches, BDM offer multiple benefits for specialty crop production such as weed control, soil moisture conservation and yield improvement, with the additional benefit of being 100 percent biodegradable, with no formation of toxic residues (Miles et al., 2018). BDM do not have to be removed; rather, they will be tilled into the soil at the end of the season. These additional benefits offset challenges faced when using PE mulches such as 1) the negative environmental impacts associated with the way PE mulches are traditionally disposed of (e.g., landfilling, on-farm burning and stockpiling); and 2) costs associated with end-of-season activities such as plastic mulch removal and disposal. The disposal of PE mulches in landfills raises some concerns as the complete decomposition of these mulches in the soils could take more than 300 years, and this process could potentially form chemical byproducts that are harmful to the environment (Ghimire et al., 2018). Also, the disposal of PE mulches by open burning on the farm can release carcinogenic substances and other toxic particles into the air that are harmful to the environment and human health (Moore and Wszelaki, 2016). It is also important for farmers to understand the short-run economic implications of adopting BDM for their farm enterprises. Some of the economic information growers need to gather before making the decision to adopt BDM are listed below.

description: The New Zealand government seeks to dramatically increase the value of agricultural exports while concurrently protecting the natural environment. Thus, farmers are expected to adopt pro-environmental management practices and novel farm technologies. We show that farmers are more likely to adopt new practices and technologies after seeing them demonstrated, but earlier evidence indicates that demonstration is most eﬀectively undertaken within farmer networks. We use multivariate regression to identify the traits of livestock farmers who are innovative by focusing on adoption of pro-environmental management practices (managing nutrients, soils and pugging) and novel farm technologies (e.g., windmills, com-puter-based management systems, automatic sensors and specialised grasses), consid-ering both numbers adopted and timing. We ﬁnd that dairy farmers are more innovative than other livestock farmers and that higher education levels and stronger environmental norms within the family are strongly associated with innovativeness. In addition, we ﬁnd that innovators and early adopters have larger networks than other farmers. Moreover, the composition of these networks is much more varied than the networks of less innovative farmers. These ﬁndings imply that innovative farmers in New Zealand may also act as connectors for the diﬀusion of new ideas in farming.
