description: In this paper, we present a fast and efficient compilation methodology for pipeline reconfigurable architectures. Our compiler back-end is much faster than conventional CAD tools, and fairly efficient. We represent pipeline reconfigurable architectures by a generalized VLIW-like model. The complex architectural constraints are effectively expressed in terms of a single graph parameter: the routing path length (RPL). Compiling to our model using RPL, we demonstrate fast compilation times and show speedups of between 10x and 200x on a pipeline reconfigurable architecture when compared to an UltraSparc-II

description: We introduce a system for automatically generating warnings of imminent or current cyber-threats. Our system leverages the communication of malicious actors on the darkweb, as well as activity of cyber security experts on social media platforms like Twitter. In a time period between September, 2016 and January, 2017, our method generated 661 alerts of which about 84% were relevant to current or imminent cyber-threats. In the paper, we first illustrate the rationale and workflow of our system, then we measure its performance. Our analysis is enriched by two case studies: the first shows how the method could predict DDoS attacks, and how it would have allowed organizations to prepare for the Mirai attacks that caused widespread disruption in October 2016. Second, we discuss the method's timely identification of various instances of data breaches.

description: Bleeding heterogeneity amongst patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is poorly understood. Platelets play a role in maintaining endothelial integrity, and variable thrombocytopenia-induced endothelial changes may influence bleeding severity. Platelet-derived endothelial stabilizers and markers of endothelial integrity in ITP are largely underexplored. We hypothesized that, in a canine ITP model, thrombocytopenia would lead to alterations in the endothelial ultrastructure and that the Von Willebrand factor (vWF) would serve as a marker of endothelial injury associated with thrombocytopenia. Thrombocytopenia was induced in healthy dogs with an antiplatelet antibody infusion; control dogs received an isotype control antibody. Cutaneous biopsies were obtained prior to thrombocytopenia induction, at platelet nadir, 24 hours after nadir, and on platelet recovery. Cutaneous capillaries were assessed by electron microscopy for vessel thickness, the number of pinocytotic vesicles, the number of large vacuoles, and the number of gaps between cells. Pinocytotic vesicles are thought to represent an endothelial membrane reserve that can be used for repair of damaged endothelial cells. Plasma samples were assessed for vWF. ITP dogs had significantly decreased pinocytotic vesicle numbers compared to control dogs (P = 0.0357) and the increase in plasma vWF from baseline to 24 hours correlated directly with the endothelial large vacuole score (R = 0.99103; P < 0.0001). This direct correlation between plasma vWF and the number of large vacuoles, representing the vesiculo-vacuolar organelle (VVO), a permeability structure, suggests that circulating vWF could serve as a biomarker for endothelial alterations and potentially a predictor of thrombocytopenic bleeding. Overall, our results indicate that endothelial damage occurs in the canine ITP model and variability in the degree of endothelial damage may account for differences in the bleeding phenotype among patients with ITP.

description: This paper enables symbolic ternary simulation of systems with large embedded memories. Each memory array is replaced with a behavioral model, where the number of symbolic variables used to characterize the initial state of the memory is proportional to the number of distinct symbolic memory locations accessed. The behavioral model provides a conservative approximation of the replaced memory array, while allowing the address and control inputs of the memory to accept symbolic ternary values. Memory state is represented by a list of entries encoding the sequence of updates of symbolic addresses with symbolic data. The list interacts with the rest of the circuit by means of a software interface developed as part of the symbolic simulation engine. This memory model was incorporated into our verification tool based on Symbolic Trajectory Evaluation. Experimental results show that the new model significantly outperforms the transistor level memory model when verifying a simple pipelined data path.

description: Online data provide a way to monitor how users behave in social systems like social networks and online games, and understand which features turn an ordinary individual into a successful one. Here, we propose to study individual performance and success in Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games. Our purpose is to identify those behaviors and playing styles that are characteristic of players with high skill level and that distinguish them from other players. To this aim, we study Defense of the ancient 2 (Dota 2), a popular MOBA game. Our findings highlight three main aspects to be successful in the game: (i) players need to have a warm-up period to enhance their performance in the game; (ii) having a long in-game experience does not necessarily translate in achieving better skills; but rather, (iii) players that reach high skill levels differentiate from others because of their aggressive playing strategy, which implies to kill opponents more often than cooperating with teammates, and trying to give an early end to the match.

description: We present Monte Carlo radiative transfer models for B335, S140, and ρ Ophiuchi A that simulate the emission line arising from the 557 GHz 110 → 101 ground-state transition of ortho-H216O. These models reproduce the line profiles with a combination of turbulent and macroscopic motions, and are consistent with gravitational infall in ρ Oph A. We cannot, however, discriminate infall from outflow for S140. Our models are consistent with ortho-H2O abundances relative to H2 of 2 × 10-8 and 4.5 × 10-9 in S140 and ρ Oph A, respectively, and an upper limit of 4 × 10-6 (3 σ) in B335, assuming the ratio ortho-H2/para-H2 = 0.1. We quantify the impact of dust continuum emission on the derived abundances.

description: Bonding characteristics of liquid boron at 2500K are studied by using high resolution Compton scattering. An excellent agreement is found between the measurements and the corresponding Car-Parinello molecular dynamics simulations. Covalent bond pairs are clearly shown to dominate in liquid boron along with the coexistence of diffuse pairs. Our study reveals the complex bonding pattern of liquid boron, and gives insight into the unusual properties of this high temperature liquid.
In-medium chiral condensate beyond linear density approximation

description: In-medium chiral perturbation theory is used to calculate the density dependence of the quark condensate $$. The corrections beyond the linear density approximation are obtained by differentiating the interaction contributions to the energy per particle of isospin-symmetric nuclear matter with respect to the pion mass. Our calculation treats systematically the effects from one-pion exchange (with $m_π$-dependent vertex corrections), iterated $1π$-exchange, and irreducible $2π$-exchange including intermediate $Δ(1232)$-isobar excitations, with Pauli-blocking corrections up to three-loop order. We find a strong and non-linear dependence of the ``dropping'' in-medium condensate on the actual value of the pion (or light quark) mass. In the chiral limit, $m_π=0$, chiral restoration appears to be reached already at about 1.5 times normal nuclear matter density. By contrast, for the physical pion mass, $m_π= 135 $MeV, the in-medium condensate stabilizes at about 60% of its vacuum value above that same density. Effects from $2π$-exchange with virtual $Δ(1232)$-isobar excitations turn out to be crucial in generating such pronounced deviations from the linear density approximation above $ρ_0$. The hindered tendency towards chiral symmetry restoration provides a justification for using pions and nucleons as effective low-energy degrees of freedom at least up to twice nuclear matter density.

description: Double Periodic Variables (DPV) are among the new enigmas of semi-detached eclipsing binaries. These are intermediate-mass binaries characterized by a long photometric period lasting on average 33 times the orbital period. We present a spectroscopic and photometric study of the DPV V495 Cen based on new high-resolution spectra and the ASAS V-band light curve. We have determined an improved orbital period of $33.492 \pm 0.002$ d and a long period of 1283 d. We find a cool evolved star of $M_{2}=0.91\pm 0.2 M_{\odot}$, $T_{2}= 6000\pm 250 K$ and $R_{2}=19.3 \pm 0.5 R_{\odot}$ and a hot companion of $M_{1}= 5.76\pm 0.3 M_{\odot}$, $T_{1}=16960\pm 400 K$ and $R=4.5\pm0.2 R_{\odot}$. The mid-type B dwarf is surrounded by a concave and geometrically thick disc, of radial extension $R_{d}= 40.2\pm 1.3 R_{\odot}$ contributing $\sim$ 11 percent to the total luminosity of the system at the V band. The system is seen under inclination $84.\!\!^{\circ}8$ $\pm$ $0.\!\!^{\circ}6$ and it is at a distance $d= 2092 \pm 104.6$ pc. The light curve analysis suggests that the mass transfer stream impacts the external edge of the disc forming a hot region 11 % hotter than the surrounding disc material. The persistent $V

description: This paper enables symbolic simulation of systems with large embedded memories. Each memory array is replaced with a behavioral model, where the number of symbolic variables used to characterize the initial state of the memory is proportional to the number of memory accesses. The memory state is represented by a list containing entries of the form ác, a, dñ, where c is a Boolean expression denoting the set of conditions for which the entry is defined, a is an address expression denoting a memory location, and d is a data expression denoting the contents of this location. Address and data expressions are represented as vectors of Boolean expressions. The list interacts with the rest of the circuit by means of a software interface developed as part of the symbolic simulation engine. The interface monitors the control lines of the memory array and translates read and write conditions into accesses to the list. This memory model was also incorporated into the Symbolic Trajectory Evaluation technique for formal verification. Experimental results show that the new model significantly outperforms the transistor level memory model when verifying a simple pipelined data path.

description: The recent astrometric discovery of the nearby (590 pc) massive ($33 M_\odot$) dormant black hole candidate Gaia BH3 offers the possibility to angularly resolve the black hole from its companion star by using optical interferometry. Our aim is to detect emission in the near-infrared K band from the close-in environment of Gaia BH3 caused by accretion. Gaia BH3 was observed with the GRAVITY instrument using the four 8-meter Unit Telescopes of the VLT Interferometer. We searched for the signature of emission from the black hole in the interferometric data using the CANDID, PMOIRED, and exoGravity tools. With a present separation of 18 mas, the Gaia BH3 system can be well resolved angularly by GRAVITY. We did not detect emission from the black hole at a contrast level of $Δm = 6.8$ mag with respect to the companion star, that is, $f_\mathrm{BH}/f_* < 0.2\%$. This corresponds to an upper limit on the continuum flux density of $f_\mathrm{BH} < 1.9 \times 10^{-16}$ W m$^{-2}$ $μ$m$^{-1}$ in the K band. In addition, we did not detect emission from the black hole in the hydrogen Brγ line. The non-detection of near-infrared emission from the black hole in Gaia BH3 indicates that its accretion of the giant star wind is presently occurring at most at a very low rate. This is consistent with the limit of $f_\mathrm{Edd} < 4.9 \times 10^{-7}$ derived previously on the Eddington ratio for an advection-dominated accretion flow. Deeper observations with GRAVITY may be able to detect the black hole as the companion star approaches periastron around 2030.

description: The inverse method is a generic proof search procedure applicable to non-classical logics satisfying cut elimination and the subformula property. In this paper we describe a general architecture and several high-level optimizations that enable its efficient implementation. Some of these rely on logic-specific properties, such as polarization and focusing, which have been shown to hold in a wide range of non-classical logics. Others, such as rule subsumption and recursive backward subsumption apply in general. We empirically evaluate our techniques on first-order intuitionistic logic with our implementation Imogen and demonstrate a substantial improvement over all other existing intuitionistic theorem provers on problems from the ILTP problem library

description: It is well-known that electromagnetic radiation propagates along a straight line, but this common sense was broken by the artificial curved light - Airy beam. In this paper, we demonstrate a new type of curved light beam besides Airy beam, so called photonic hook. This photonic hook is a curved high-intensity focus by a dielectric trapezoid particle illuminated by a plane wave. The difference of the phase velocity and the interference of the waves inside the particle cause the phenomenon of focus bending.

description: Given a transitive permutation group, a fundamental object for studying its higher transitivity properties is the permutation action of its isotropy subgroup. We reverse this relationship and introduce a universal construction of infinite permutation groups that takes as input a given system of imprimitivity for its isotropy subgroup. This produces vast families kaleidoscopic groups. We investigate their algebraic properties, such as simplicity and oligomorphy; their homological properties, such as acyclicity or contrariwise large Schur multipliers; their topological properties, such as unique polishability. Our construction is carried out within the framework of homeomorphism groups of topological dendrites.

description: Implicit invocation or publish-subscribe has become an important architectural style for large-scale system design and evolution. The publish-subscribe style facilitates developing large-scale systems by composing separately developed components because the style permits loose coupling between various components. One of the major bottlenecks in using publish-subscribe systems for very large scale systems is the efficiency of filtering incoming messages, i.e., matching of published events with event subscriptions. This is a very challenging problem because in a realistic publishsubscribe system the number of subscriptions can be large. In this paper we present an approach for matching published events with subscriptions which scales to a large number of subscriptions. Our approach uses Binary Decision Diagrams, a compact data structure for representing boolean functions which has been successfully used in verification techniques such as model checking. Experimental results clearly demonstrate the efficiency of our approach.

description: Abstract: "The use of Craig interpolants has enabled the development of powerful hardware and software model checking techniques. Efficient algorithms are known for computing interpolants in rational and real linear arithmetic. We focus on subsets of integer linear arithmetic. Our main results are polynomial time algorithms for obtaining proofs of unsatisfiability and interpolants for conjunctions of linear diophantine equations, linear modular equations (linear congruences), and linear diophantine disequations. We show the utility of the proposed interpolation algorithms for discovering modular/divisibility predicates in a counterexample guided abstraction refinement (CEGAR) framework. This has enabled verification of simple programs that cannot be checked using existing CEGAR based model checkers."

description: Let $T$ be a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $H$ with domain $\mathcal D(T)$. Assume that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union of disjoint intervals $Δ_k =[α_{2k-1},α_{2k}]$, $k\in \mathbb{Z}$, and $$ α_{2k+1}-α_{2k} \geq b|α_{2k+1}+α_{2k}|^p\quad \text{ for some }\,b>0,\,p\in[0,1). $$ Suppose that a linear operator $B$ in $H$ is $p$-subordinated to $T$, i.e. $\mathcal D(B) \supset\mathcal D(T)$ and $\|Bx\| \leq b'\,\|Tx\|^p\|x\|^{1-p} +M\|x\| \text{\, for all } x\in \mathcal D(T)$, with some $b'>0$ and $M\geq 0$. Then the spectrum of the perturbed operator $A=T+B$ lies in the union of a rectangle in $\mathbb{C}$ and double parabola $P_{p,h} = \bigl\{λ\in \mathbb{C}\,\bigl|\,|\mathop{\rm Im} λ|\leq h|\mathop{\rm Re} λ|^p\bigr\}$, provided that $h>b'$. The vertical strips $Ω_k =\{λ\in\mathbb{C}|\,|r_k-{\rm Re}\,λ|\leq δr_k^p\}$, $r_k =(α_{2k}+α_{2k+1})/2$, belong to the resolvent set of $T$, provided that $δ

description: This paper is about the fractional Schrödinger equation expressed in terms of the Caputo time-fractional and quantum Riesz-Feller space fractional derivatives for particle moving in a potential field. The cases of free particle (zero potential) and a linear potential are considered. For free particle, the solution is obtained in terms of the Fox $H$-function. For the case of a linear potential, the separation of variables method allows the fractional Schrödinger equation to be split into space fractional and time fractional ones. By using the Fourier and Mellin transforms for the space equation and the contour integrals technique for the time equation, the solutions are obtained also in terms of the Fox $H$-function. Moreover, some recent results related to the time fractional equation have been revised and reconsidered. The results obtained in this paper contain as particular cases already known results for the fractional Schrödinger equation in terms of the quantum Riesz space-fractional derivative and standard Laplace operator.

description: Locating content in decentralized peer-to-peer systems is a challenging problem. Gnutella, a popular file-sharing application, relies on flooding queries to all peers. Although flooding is simple and robust, it is not scalable. We explore how to retain the simplicity of Gnutella, while addressing its inherent weakness: scalability. We propose a content location solution in which peers loosely organize themselves into an interest-based structure on top of the existing Gnutella network. Our approach exploits a simple, yet powerful principle called interest-based locality, which posits that if a peer has a particular piece of content that one is interested in, it is very likely that it will have other items that one is interested in as well. When using our algorithm, called interest-based shortcuts, a significant amount of flooding can be avoided, making Gnutella a more competitive solution. In addition, shortcuts are modular and can be used to improve the performance of other content location mechanisms including distributed hash table schemes. We demonstrate the existence of interest-based locality in five diverse traces of content distribution applications, two of which are traces of popular peer-to-peer file-sharing applications. Simulation results show that interest-based shortcuts often resolve queries quickly in one peer-to-peer hop, while reducing the total load in the system by a factor of 3 to 7.

description: Abstract: "One-way chains are an important cryptographic primitive in many security applications. Lamport first proposed to use one-way chains for one-time password authentication [19]. Subsequently, researchers proposed one-way chains as a basic building block for digital cash, for extending the lifetime of digital certificates, for constructing one-time signatures, for packet authentication, etc. As one-way chains are very efficient to verify, they recently became increasingly popular for designing security protocols for resource-constrained mobile devices and sensor networks, as their low-powered processors can compute a one-way function within milliseconds, but would require tens of seconds or up to minutes to generate or verify a traditional digital signature [6]. Recent sensor network security protocols thus extensively use one-way chains to design protocols that scale down to resource-constrained sensors [20,28]. Recently, researchers also proposed a variety of improvements to one-way hash chains to make storage and access more efficient [9,17,32], or to make setup and verification more efficient [16,20]. In this paper we present two new constructions for one-way hash chains, which significantly improve the efficiency of one-way chains. Our first construction, the Sandwich-chain, provides a smaller bandwidth overhead for one-way chain values, and enables efficient verification of one-way chain values if the trusted one-way chain value is far away. Our second construction, Comb Skipchain, features a new lower bound for one-way chains in terms of storage and traversal overhead. In fact previously, researchers [9] cite a lower bound of log┬▓(n) for the product of per-value traversal overload and memory requirements for one-dimensional chains. We show that one can achieve a lower bound by considering multi-dimensional chains. In particular, our two-dimensional construction requires O(log (n)) memory and O(1) traversal overhead, thereby improving on the one-dimensional bound. In addition, the setup cost for the one-way chain is in contrast only O(n/log(n)). Other benefits for both constructions include a faster verification step than the traditional hash chains provide; a verifier can 'catch up' efficiently, after having missed some number of previously released hash values (for the Sandwich-chain); and resistance against DoS attacks on authentication values. Moreover, we describe fractal traversal schemes for our proposed structures, bringing down the traversal costs for our structure to the same as those of the simpler 'traditional ' hash chain. Our new construction is orthogonal to most previously proposed techniques, and can be used in conjunction with techniques for efficient setup or verification of one-way chains."

description: This article considers a unilateral contact problem for the wave equation. The problem is reduced to a variational inequality for the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator for the wave equation on the boundary, which is solved in a saddle point formulation using boundary elements in the time domain. As a model problem, also a variational inequality for the single layer operator is considered. A priori estimates are obtained for Galerkin approximations both to the variational inequality and the mixed formulation in the case of a flat contact area, where the existence of solutions to the continuous problem is known. Numerical experiments demonstrate the performance of the proposed mixed method. They indicate the stability and convergence beyond flat geometries.

description: Abstract: "This paper describes the design, implementation and performance of a family of protocols for survivable, decentralized data storage. These protocols exploit storage-node versioning to efficiently achieve strong consistency semantics. These protocols allow erasure-codes to be used that achieve network and storage efficiency (and optionally data confidentiality in the face of server compromise). The protocol family is general in that its parameters accommodate a wide range of fault and timing assumptions, up to asynchrony and Byzantine faults of both storage-nodes and clients, with no changes to server implementation or client-server interface. Measurements of a prototype storage system using these protocols show that the protocol performs well under various system model assumptions, numbers of failures tolerated, and degrees of reader-writer concurrency."
Plasmon-induced strong interaction between chiral molecules and orbital angular momentum of light

description: Whether or not chiral interaction exists between the optical orbital angular momentum (OAM) and a chiral molecule remains unanswered. So far, such an interaction has not been observed experimentally. Here we present a T-matrix method to study the interaction between optical OAM and the chiral molecule in a cluster of nanoparticles. We find that strong interaction between the chiral molecule and OAM can be induced by the excitation of plasmon resonances. An experimental scheme to observe such an interaction has been proposed. Furthermore, we have found that the signal of the OAM dichroism can be either positive or negative, depending on the spatial positions of nanocomposites in the cross-sections of OAM beams. The cancellation between positive and negative signals in the spatial average can explain why the interaction has not been observed in former experiments.

description: The theory to calculate circular dichroism (CD) of chiral molecules in a finite cluster with arbitrarily disposed objects has been developed by means of T-matrix method. The interactions between chiral molecules and nanostructures have been investigated. Our studies focus on the case of chiral molecules inserted into plasmonic hot spots of nanostructures. Our results show that the total CD of the system with two chiral molecules is not sum for two cases when two chiral molecules inserted respectively into the hot spots of nanoparticle clusters as the distances among nanoparticles are small, although the relationship is established at the case of large interparticle distances. The plasmonic CD arising from structure chirality of nanocomposites depends strongly on the relative positions and orientations of nanospheroids, and are much greater than that from molecule-induced chirality. However, the molecule-induced plasmonic CD effect from the molecule-NP nanocomposites with special chiral structures can be spectrally distinguishable from the structure chirality-based optical activity. Our results provide a new theoretical framework for understanding the two different aspects of plasmonic CD effect in molecule-NP nanocomposites, which would be helpful for the experimental design of novel biosensors to realize ultrasensitive probe of chiral information of molecules by plasmon-based nanotechnology.

description: In recent years, multi-regional clinical trials (MRCT) that conduct clinical trials simultaneously in Asian Pacific region, Europe, and the United States have become very popular for global pharmaceutical development. The main purpose of multi-regional clinical trials is to shorten the time for pharmaceutical development and regulatory submission, and approval around the world. In practice, however, clinical results observed from some regions (sub-population) may not be consistent with the results from other regions and/or all regions combined (entire population). The inconsistency observed may be due to ethnic differences in different regions, differences in medical practice, time points of assessment, or by random chance due to small sample size for the region. Some regional regulatory agencies require consistency evaluation between local country results and overall results. However, the challenge is there is no detailed guidance on the definition of ‘consistency’ and methodology to evaluate it. Therefore, the questions are: how to evaluate consistency and what statistical methods are appropriate to be used for consistency evaluation? In this article, several statistical tests for consistency (similarity) between clinical results observed from a specific sub-population and the entire population are proposed. These methods are compared through extensive simulation. As most published articles discussed consistency evaluation for superiority situations, we have discussed consistency evaluation for non-inferiority situation in this article through a simulated example concerning consistency in some countries. Recommendations of the statistical methods to be used for consistency evaluation are given. Other aspects that should be considered for consistency evaluation are also provided.
