Analytical models for accelerating FPGA architecture development
Creators: name: Das, Joydip
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are widely used to implement logic without going through an expensive fabrication process. Current-generation FPGAs still suffer from area and power overheads, making them unsuitable for mainstream adoption for large volume systems. FPGA companies constantly design new architectures to provide higher density, lower power consumption, and faster implementation. An experimental approach is typically followed for new architecture design, which is a very slow and computationally expensive process. This dissertation presents an alternate faster way for FPGA architecture design. We use analytical model based design techniques, where the models consist of a set of equations that relate the effectiveness of FPGA architectures to the parameters describing these architectures. During early stage architecture investigation, FPGA architects and vendors can use our equations to quickly short-list a limited number of architectures from a range of architectures under investigation. Only the short-listed architectures need then be investigated using an expensive experimental approach. This dissertation presents three contributions towards the formulation of analytical models and the investigation of capabilities and limitations of these models. First, we develop models that relate key FPGA architectural parameters to the depth along the critical path and the post-placement wirelength. We detail how these models can be used to estimate the expected area of implementation and critical path delay for user-circuits mapped on FPGAs. Secondly, we develop a model that relates key parameters of the FPGA routing fabric to the fabric's routability, assuming that a modern one-step global/detailed router is used. We show that our model can capture the effects of the architectural parameters on routability. Thirdly, we investigate capabilities and limitations of analytical models in answering design questions that are posed by the FPGA architects. Comparing with two experimental approaches, we demonstrate that analytical models can better optimize FPGA architectures while requiring significantly less design effort. However, we also demonstrate that the analytical models, due to their continuous nature, should not be used to answer the architecture design questions related to applications having `discrete effects'.

Higgs production as a probe of anomalous top couplings

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The LHC may be currently seeing the first hints of the Higgs boson. The dominant production mode for the Higgs at the LHC involves a top-quark loop. An accurate measurement of Higgs production cross-sections and decay widths can thus be used to obtain limits on anomalous top couplings. We find that such an exercise could potentially yield constraints that are stronger than those derived from low-energy observables as well as direct bounds expected from the top pair-production process.

description: Expert systems and neural networks are new tools for the control of fermentation processes. With expert systems the fermentation plant and the process itself is modelled via a generalized, qualitative system description based on the experience of human experts. On the other hand neural networks and interpolating associative memories can learn the process behaviour directly by process observation. The paper at hand reports, how both control techniques can be combined for purposes like process supervision, modelling and optimization of biological plants.

description: The combination of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations can induce unusual phenomena in the metallic interface between SrTiO$_3$ and LaAlO$_3$. We consider effects of Rashba spin-orbit coupling at this interface in the context of the recent observation of anisotropic magnetism. Firstly, we show how Rashba spin-orbit coupling in a system near a band-edge can account for the observed magnetic anisotropy. Secondly, we investigate the coupling between in-plane magnetic-moment anisotropy and nematicity in the form of an orbital imbalance between d$_{xz}$ / d$_{yz}$ orbitals. We estimate this coupling to be substantial in the low electron density regime. Such an orbital ordering can affect magneto transport.

description: Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) need to maximize security while minimizing costs. In this paper, we study the problem of building cost-sensitive intrusion detection models to be used for real-time detection. We briefly discuss the major cost factors in IDS, including consequential and operational costs. We propose a multiple model cost-sensitive machine learning technique to produce models that are optimized for user-defined cost metrics. Empirical experiments in off-line analysis show a reduction of approximately 97% in operational cost over a single model approach, and a reduction of approximately 30% in consequential cost over a pure accuracy-based approach.

title: Effect of the Rubber-Cup Prophylaxis and the Self-Administered Prophylaxis on the Oral Hygiene Performance of the Pedodontic Patient
Creators: name: Edwards, Kay Diane
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 1979

description: The effects of two oral prophylaxis methods on the oral hygiene performance of children (N=l00) between the ages of 8 and 13 years were studied over a three month period. Subjects were randomly selected from a dental hygiene clinic patient population and assigned to one of two prophylaxis groups. Each child's oral hygiene was evaluated using the Patient Hygiene Performance Index prior to and at one month intervals following treatment. Multifactor analysis of variance revealed no significant difference between children's age and the type of prophylaxis received. A significant difference was observed between children ages 8 to 10.5 and 10.6 to 13 years for the first three appointments; no significant difference was observed between the two age groups at appointment four. The self-administered prophylaxis is as effective as the rubber-cup prophylaxis in improving children's oral hygiene performance. Given adequate time, children ages 8 to 10.5 are capable of manipulating preventive materials as skillfully as children ages 10.6 to 13 years.

description: Background: Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) is consistently superior to clinic blood pressure (CBP) as a predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality risk. A common perception is that ABP is usually lower than CBP. The relationship of the CBP minus ABP difference to age has not been examined in the United States.

Methods: Between 2005 and 2012, 888 healthy, employed, middle-aged (mean±SD age, 45±10.4 years) individuals (59% female, 7.4% black, 12% Hispanic) with screening BP <160/105 mm Hg and not taking antihypertensive medication completed 3 separate clinic BP assessments and a 24-hour ABP recording for the Masked Hypertension Study. The distributions of CBP, mean awake ABP (aABP), and the CBP−aABP difference in the full sample and by demographic characteristics were compared. Locally weighted scatterplot smoothing was used to model the relationship of the BP measures to age and body mass index. The prevalence of discrepancies in ABP- versus CBP-defined hypertension status—white-coat hypertension and masked hypertension—were also examined.

Results: Average systolic/diastolic aABP (123.0/77.4±10.3/7.4 mm Hg) was significantly higher than the average of 9 CBP readings over 3 visits (116.0/75.4±11.6/7.7 mm Hg). aABP exceeded CBP by >10 mm Hg much more frequently than CBP exceeded aABP. The difference (aABP>CBP) was most pronounced in young adults and those with normal body mass index. The systolic difference progressively diminished, but did not disappear, at older ages and higher body mass indexes. The diastolic difference vanished around age 65 and reversed (CBP>aABP) for body mass index >32.5 kg/m2. Whereas 5.3% of participants were hypertensive by CBP, 19.2% were hypertensive by aABP; 15.7% of those with nonelevated CBP had masked hypertension.

Conclusions: Contrary to a widely held belief, based primarily on cohort studies of patients with elevated CBP, ABP is not usually lower than CBP, at least not among healthy, employed individuals. Furthermore, a substantial proportion of otherwise healthy individuals with nonelevated CBP have masked hypertension. Demonstrated CBP−aABP gradients, if confirmed in representative samples (eg, NHANES [National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey]), could provide guidance for primary care physicians as to when, for a given CBP, 24-hour ABP would be useful to identify or rule out masked hypertension.

description: We report on extensive domain wall motion in ferroelectric nanocapacitor arrays investigated by piezoresponse force microscopy. Under a much longer or higher bias voltage pulse, compared to typical switching pulse conditions, domain walls start to propagate into the neighbouring capacitors initiating a significant cross-talk. The propagation paths and the propagated area into the neighbouring capacitors were always the same under repeated runs. The experimental and the simulated results show that the observed cross-talk is related to the capacitor parameters combined with local defects. The results can be helpful to test the reliability of nanoscale ferroelectric memory devices.
Federal Fiduciary Duties and Private Equity: The Search for Workable Standards

description: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act drastically changed the financial regulatory landscape in the United States. One noteworthy change was a near-elimination of the so-called “private adviser” exemption to the Investment Advisors Act of 1940. The biggest beneficiaries of this exemption were private equity sponsors and hedge fund managers. A result of this change is that most private equity fund advisers and hedge fund managers must now register as investment advisers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act and are subject to a myriad of rules and regulations. The focus of this Note is the application of the fiduciary duties governing advisers required to register under the Investment Advisers Act to private equity sponsors. Problematically, these fiduciary duties do not emanate from the Act itself, but are the result of judicial interpretation. Largely because of this genesis, the substance of advisers’ fiduciary duties remains unclear. Importantly for private equity advisers, the bounds of their fiduciary duties were developed in the context of industries vastly different from modern private equity. This Note argues that the existing “one-size-fits-all” scheme of fiduciary regulation under the Investment Advisers Act is inappropriate for the private equity industry. It examines three recent SEC orders against major industry players for violations of their fiduciary duties under the Investment Advisers Act and notes both their inconsistency and lack of guidance. Instead of this byzantine system of fiduciary regulation, a contractarian model would better serve both private equity sponsors and investors by allowing the parties themselves to define the bounds of the fiduciary relationship. This approach best reflects the bargaining power and financial sophistication of the parties and encourages the continued growth of the private equity industry.

description: OBJECTIVE: Little is known about the relationship of perceived racism to ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) in Hispanics. We explored possible associations between ABP nocturnal dipping and perceived racism in a Hispanic cohort. METHODS: Participants included 180 community-dwelling Hispanics from the Northern Manhattan Study. Measures included perceived racism, socioeconomic status, social support, and ABP monitoring. Nocturnal ABP nondipping was defined as a less than 10% decline in the average asleep systolic blood pressure relative to the awake systolic blood pressure. RESULTS: Overall, 77.8% of participants reported some form of perceived racism (Perceived Ethnic Discrimination Questionnaire scores >1.0). Greater social support was associated with less perceived discrimination (Spearman r = -0.54, p < .001). Those with higher perceived discrimination scores reported more depressive symptoms (r = 0.25, p < .001). Those with higher Perceived Ethnic Discrimination Questionnaire scores were less likely to show nocturnal ABP nondipping in multivariate models (odds ratio = 0.40, confidence interval = 0.17-0.98, p = .045). Among those with low perceived racism, black Hispanic participants were more likely to have nocturnal ABP nondipping (82.6%) compared with white Hispanics (53.9%; p = .02). Among those with high perceived racism, no associations between race and the prevalence of ABP nondipping was found (black Hispanic = 61.5% versus white Hispanic = 51.4%, p = .39; p interaction = .89). CONCLUSIONS: Perceived racism is relatively common among US Hispanics and is associated with ABP. Nondipping of ABP, a potential cardiovascular risk factor, was more common in black Hispanic participants with low perceived racism. This finding may reflect different coping mechanisms between black versus white Hispanics and related blood pressure levels during daytime exposures to discrimination.
Modified gravity as a common cause for cosmic acceleration and flat galaxy rotation curves

description: Flat galaxy rotation curves and the accelerating Universe both imply the existence of a critical acceleration, which is of the same order of magnitude in both the cases, in spite of the galactic and cosmic length scales being vastly different. Yet, it is customary to explain galactic acceleration by invoking gravitationally bound dark matter, and cosmic acceleration by invoking a `repulsive` dark energy. Instead, might it not be the case that the flatness of rotation curves and the acceleration of the Universe have a common cause? In this essay we propose a modified theory of gravity. By applying the theory on galactic scales we demonstrate flat rotation curves without dark matter, and by applying it on cosmological scales we demonstrate cosmic acceleration without dark energy.

Form and its health functions : socioeconomic status-based network homophily and the personal health of canadians
Creators: name: Fitterer, Lisa Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: There exists a well-documented positive association between social relationships and health. While much of this research has focused on mediating mechanisms through which network ties function to maintain or improve health, little attention has been given to network form, an important feature that likely influences network function. One particularly salient network form is homophily – the observed tendency for people to associate with those who are like themselves. In the present study, I propose and test several hypotheses regarding how homophily in terms of socioeconomic status (SES) influences personal health by structuring the support and resources available to individuals and how these relationships are moderated by an individual’s own SES. Analyses of nationally representative Canadian data reveal SES homophily to be directly and indirectly associated with personal mental and general health. However, these associations are dependent upon the type of homophily (education- or income-based), the health outcome in question, and at times, individual SES. These findings indicate the unique contribution of homophily for health and suggest that future research on social relationships and health should consider networks in terms of form as well as function.

description: We discuss the KDD process in "data-flow" environments, where unstructured and time dependent data can be processed into various levels of structured and semantically-rich forms for analysis tasks. Using network intrusion detection as a concrete application example, we describe how to construct models that are both accurate in describing the underlying concepts, and efficient when used to analyze data in real-time. We present procedures for analyzing frequent patterns from lower level data and constructing appropriate features to formulate higher level data. The features generated from various levels of data have different computational costs (in time and space). We show that in order to minimize the time required in using the classification models in a real-time environment, we can exploit the "necessary conditions" associated with the low-cost features to determine whether some high-cost features need to be computed and the corresponding classification rules need to be checked. We have applied our tools to the problem of building network intrusion detection models. We report our experiments using the network data provided as part of the 1998 DARPA Intrusion Detection Evaluation program. We also discuss our experience in using the mined models in NFR, a real-time network intrusion detection system.

Why Did Sha h Ha tim's Collected Works Spawn a Child?
Creators: name: Dudney, Arthur
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Middle Eastern literature

description: One of the celebrated Urdu poets of the eighteenth century was Sha h Ha tim (1699-1783), who is regarded as particularly influential because he abandoned the prevailing style of Urdu composition, which freely mixed indigenous Sanskrit-derived words with Persian and Arabic ones, in favor of a style in which the technical vocabulary was purely Perso-Arabic. Uniquely in the annals of Urdu literary history, Sha h Ha tim changed his mind about his diction after publishing his Collected Works [dīvā n] and so prepared a new dīvā n, entitled Dīvā nzādah, or Child of the Collected Works, to reflect his new sensibilities. Many Persian and Urdu poets published multiple dīvā ns, but none are so radically different from one another as Shah Ha tim's. This paper examines the Dīvā nzādah's preface, which is beguilingly short and simple at just two printed pages, and considers the larger context of Sha h Ha tim's aesthetic choices. I will argue that his desire to Persianize Urdu is a reflection of a sociolinguistic landscape in which vernacular literatures were becoming more assertive but Persian remained a high prestige language which was perceived as capable of elevating vernacular composition. Although Indian literatures had drawn on Persian tropes and vocabulary for centuries, what appears to be new in the mid-eighteenth century is a sense that Persian could be a vehicle by which vernacular literature could be made more respectable. Shah Ha tim provides us with perhaps the only self-reflective prose on Urdu composition from the eighteenth century, and it is a window on how the torch of literary production was passed from the classical language, Persian, to the vernacular, Urdu.

description: This paper contains a complete proof of Fukaya's and Kato's epsilon$-isomorphism conjecture in [23] for invertible Λ-modules (the case of V = V_0(r) where V_0 is unramified of dimension 1). Our results rely heavily on Kato's unpublished proof of (commutative) epsilon-isomorphisms for one dimensional representations of G_{Q_p} in [27], but apart from fixing some sign-ambiguities in (loc.\ cit.) we use the theory of (ϕ,Γ)-modules instead of syntomic cohomology. Also, for the convenience of the reader we give a slight modification or rather reformulation of it in the language of [23] and extend it to the (slightly non-commutative) semi-global setting. Finally we discuss some direct applications concerning the Iwasawa theory of CM elliptic curves, in particular the local Iwasawa Main Conjecture for CM elliptic curves E over the extension of Q_p which trivialises the p-power division points E(p) of E. In this sense the paper is complimentary to the joint work [7] on noncommutative Main Conjectures for CM elliptic curves.

description: The development of electronic editions can be read as a transitional point in book history, of the same order of importance as the shift from rolls to codex or from manuscript to print. Such transitions have tended to be gradual, though, and electronic editions are still a relatively new development, only having existed for a little more than twenty years. Many of the early statements made about the potential of these editions have proved to be overly optimistic. However, we should recognise the real and exciting possibilities opened for scholarly editions by electronic media. In spite of questions about their cost and sustainability, electronic editions constitute an undeniable advance in the access they provide to digitised images, their ability to facilitate the collation of textual variants and their capacity to make possible new forms of editorial collaboration.

description: The constituents of cold dense matter are still far from being understood. However, neutron star observations such as the recently observed pulsar PSR J1614-2230 with a mass of 1.97+/-0.04 M_solar help to considerably constrain the hadronic equation of state (EoS). We systematically investigate the influence of the hyperon potentials on the stiffness of the EoS. We find that they have but little influence on the maximum mass compared to the inclusion of an additional vector meson mediating repulsive interaction amongst hyperons. The new mass limit can only be reached with this additional meson regardless of the hyperon potentials. Further, we investigate the impact of the nuclear compression modulus and the effective mass of the nucleon at saturation density on the high density regime of the EoS. We show that the maximum mass of purely nucleonic stars is very sensitive to the effective nucleon mass but only very little to the compression modulus.

description: In 2015, the Third Circuit took a rare opportunity to consider the meaning of SEC Rule 14a-8(i)(7), which allows shareholder proposals which address ordinary business matters to be excluded from a proxy statement unless they target matters of sufficiently significant social policy. In doing so, a split panel broke from decades of SEC practice and provoked a response from the Division of Corporate Finance, which is charged with the Rule’s application. The Division attempted—and failed—to clarify what it understands the social policy exception to require. This Note analyzes the Division’s practice since its confused response to determine whether its interpretation of the significant social policy exception has changed.

description: In this paper we describe our preliminary experiments to extend the work pioneered by Forrest (see Forrest et al. 1996) on learning the (normal and abnormal) patterns of Unix processes. These patterns can be used to identify misuses of and intrusions in Unix systems. We formulated machine learning tasks on operating system call sequences of normal and abnormal (intrusion) executions of the Unix sendmail program. We show that our methods can accurately distinguish all abnormal executions of sendmail from the normal ones provided in a set of test traces. These preliminary results indicate that machine learning can play an important role by generalizing stored sequence information to perhaps provide broader intrusion detection services. The experiments also reveal some interesting and challenging problems for future research.

description: We experimentally study the effect of disorder on trapped quasi two-dimensional (2D) 87Rb clouds in the vicinity of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) phase transition. The disorder correlation length is of the order of the Bose gas characteristic length scales (thermal de Broglie wavelength, healing length) and disorder thus modifies the physics at a microscopic level. We analyze the coherence properties of the cloud through measurements of the momentum distributions, for two disorder strengths, as a function of its degeneracy. For moderate disorder, the emergence of coherence remains steep but is shifted to a lower entropy. In contrast, for strong disorder, the growth of coherence is hindered. Our study is an experimental realization of the dirty boson problem in a well controlled atomic system suitable for quantitative analysis.
PT-symmetric interpretation of double-scaling

description: The conventional double-scaling limit of an O(N)-symmetric quartic quantum field theory is inconsistent because the critical coupling constant is negative. Thus, at the critical coupling the Lagrangian defines a quantum theory with an upside-down potential whose energy appears to be unbounded below. Worse yet, the integral representation of the partition function of the theory does not exist. It is shown that one can avoid these difficulties if one replaces the original theory by its PT-symmetric analog. For a zero-dimensional O(N)-symmetric quartic vector model the partition function of the PT-symmetric analog is calculated explicitly in the double-scaling limit.

Neutrino Masses at LHC: Minimal Lepton Flavour Violation in Type-III See-saw

description: We study the signatures of minimal lepton flavour violation in a simple Type-III see - saw model in which the flavour scale is given by the new fermion triplet mass and it can be naturally light enough to be produced at the LHC. In this model the flavour structure of the lepton number conserving couplings of the triplet fermions to the Standard Model leptons can be reconstructed from the neutrino mass matrix and the smallness of the neutrino mass is associated with a tiny violation of total lepton number. Characteristic signatures of this model include suppressed lepton number violation decays of the triplet fermions, absence of displaced vertices in their decays and predictable lepton flavour composition of the states produced in their decays. We study the observability of these signals in the processes $pp\rightarrow 3\ell + 2j +\Sla{E_T}$ and $pp\rightarrow 2\ell + 4j$ with $\ell =e$ or $μ$ taking into account the present low energy data on neutrino physics and the corresponding Standard Model backgrounds. Our results indicate that the new fermionic states can be observed for masses up to 500 GeV depending on the CP violating Majorana phase for an integrated luminosity of 30 fb$^{-1}$. Moreover, the flavour of the final state leptons in the above processes can shed light on the neutrino mass ordering.

description: Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) must maximize the realization of security goals while minimizing costs. In this paper, we study the problem of building cost-sensitive intrusion detection models. We examine the major cost factors associated with an IDS, which include development cost, operational cost, damage cost due to successful intrusions, and the cost of manual and automated response to intrusions. These cost factors can be qualified according to a defined attack taxonomy and site-specific security policies and priorities. We define cost models to formulate the total expected cost of an IDS. We present cost-sensitive machine learning techniques that can produce detection models that are optimized for user-defined cost metrics. Empirical experiments show that our cost-sensitive modeling and deployment techniques are effective in reducing the overall cost of intrusion detection.
A Dielectric Superfluid of Polar Molecules

description: We show that, under achievable experimental conditions, a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of polar molecules can exhibit dielectric character. In particular, we derive a set of self-consistent mean-field equations that couple the condensate density to its electric dipole field, leading to the emergence of polarization modes that are coupled to the rich quasiparticle spectrum of the condensate. While the usual roton instability is suppressed in this system, the coupling can give rise to a phonon-like instability that is characteristic of a dielectric material with a negative static dielectric function.

Gender, acculturation, and protective factors in the mental health of Southeast Asian youth in British Columbia
Creators: name: Hilario, Carla Theresa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Purpose: There is a substantial gap in research that examines mental health in immigrant and visible minority groups. Even less research has considered the link between acculturation, mental health, and protective factors among these adolescents. This study investigated gender and acculturation-related differences in mental health and identified protective factors that buffer against emotional distress among Southeast Asian youth in British Columbia. Methods: A secondary analysis was conducted using data from the 2008 BC Adolescent Health Survey. Measures included mental health (recent stress, despair, self-harm, suicide, and self-esteem); acculturation (foreign-born status, length of time in Canada, and language spoken at home); and theorized protective factors (family connectedness, school connectedness, and ethnic identity connectedness). Gender differences in level of protective factors were examined using general linear modeling and age-adjusted multivariate models predicting extreme stress and extreme despair were conducted separately by gender and included acculturation measures as well as protective factors. Results: Southeast Asian girls reported significantly higher rates of mental health issues than boys including self-harm activity, suicidal intent, and attempted suicide. In addition, significantly greater numbers of Southeast Asian girls experienced extreme levels of stress and despair. In bivariate testing, acculturation was not significantly related to mental health. However, in the multivariate models, boys and girls who had lived in Canada for less than 5 years were more likely to report extreme levels of despair; girls in Canada for less than 10 years were also more likely to report extreme despair as well as extreme stress. Significant protective factors for boys and girls were family connectedness for both stress and despair as well as school connectedness but only among girls. Higher levels of ethnic identity connectedness were associated with lower odds of despair among boys but higher odds of stress among girls. Discussion and Implications: Immigrant teens may be at higher risk for emotional distress, yet gender differences still exist in the mental health of Southeast Asian youth. Future research must account for gender and acculturation-related differences in mental health and to assess for protective factors that may help mitigate the negative effects of stressors on adolescent mental health.

description: We extend the Fixed Center Approximation (FCA) to the Faddeev Equations for the $\bar{K} NN$ system with S=0, including the charge exchange mechanisms in the $\bar{K}$ rescattering which have been ignored in former works within the FCA. We obtain similar results to those found before, but the binding is reduced by 6 MeV. At the same time we also evaluate the explicit contribution the $πN Σ$ intermediate state in the three body system and find that it produces and additional small decrease in the binding of about 3 MeV. The system appears bound by about 35 MeV and the width omitting two body absorption, is about 50 MeV.

description: We show that the effect of stress on the reproductive fitness of noisy cell populations can be modelled as first-passage time problem, and demonstrate that even relatively short-lived fluctuations in gene expression can ensure long-term survival of a drug-resistant population. We examine how this effect contributes to the development of drug-resistant cancer cells, and demonstrate that permanent immunity can arise independently of mutations.
