Performance measurements on an ATM-based metropolitan area network: OASICE case study (2002)

This paper looks at the development of Colmar city's metropolitan area network (MAN) called OASICE. This MAN uses ATM technology to provide a range of business, academic and community tele-services such as tele-teaching, tele-information, tele-documentation, tele-management and tele-surveillance of property, high definition teleconference and VOD (video on demand).
Corroboration of a Major Role for Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 in Alzheimer’s Disease (2018)

Strong evidence has emerged recently for the concept that herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1) is a major risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). This concept proposes that latent HSV1 in brain of carriers of the type 4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE-ε4) is reactivated intermittently by events such as immunosuppression, peripheral infection, and inflammation, the consequent damage accumulating, and culminating eventually in the development of AD. Population data to investigate this epidemiologically, e.g., to find if subjects treated with antivirals might be protected from developing dementia-are available in Taiwan, from the National Health Insurance Research Database, in which 99.9% of the population has been enrolled. This is being extensively mined for information on microbial infections and disease. Three publications have now appeared describing data on the development of senile dementia (SD), and the treatment of those with marked overt signs of disease caused by varicella zoster virus (VZV), or by HSV. The striking results show that the risk of SD is much greater in those who are HSV-seropositive than in seronegative subjects, and that antiviral treatment causes a dramatic decrease in number of subjects who later develop SD. It should be stressed that these results apply only to those with severe cases of HSV1 or VZV infection, but when considered with the over 150 publications that strongly support an HSV1 role in AD, they greatly justify usage of antiherpes antivirals to treat AD. Three other studies are described which directly relate to HSV1 and AD: they deal respectively with lysosomal changes in HSV1-infected cell cultures, with evidence for a role of human herpes virus type 6 and 7 (HHV6 and HHV7) in AD, and viral effects on host gene expression, and with the antiviral characteristics of beta amyloid (Aβ). Three indirectly relevant studies deal respectively with schizophrenia, relating to antiviral treatment to target HSV1, with the likelihood that HSV1 is a cause of fibromyalgia (FM), and with FM being associated with later development of SD. Studies on the link between epilepsy, AD and herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) are described also, as are the possible roles of APOE-ε4, HHV6 and HSV1 in epilepsy.
Automata-to-Routing: An Open-Source Toolchain for Design-Space Exploration of Spatial Automata Processing Architectures (2017)

Newly-available spatial architectures to accelerate finite-automata processing have spurred research and development on novel automata-based applications. However, spatial automata processing architecture research is lacking, because of a lack of automata optimization and place-and-route tools. To solve this issue, we propose a new, open-source toolchain-Automata-to-Routing (ATR)-that enables design-space exploration of spatial automata architectures. ATR leverages existing open-source tools for both automata processing and FPGA architecture research. To demonstrate the usefulness of this new toolchain, we use it to analyze design choices of spatial automata processing architectures. We first show that ATR is capable of modeling the logic tiles of a commercially-available spatial automata processing architecture. We then use ATR to compare and contrast two different routing architecture methodologies-hierarchical and 2D-mesh-over a set of diverse automata benchmarks. We show that shallower 2D-mesh-style routing fabrics can route complex automata with equal channel width, while using up to 4.2x fewer logic tile resources.
Parametrane Extrauteringravidität (1997)

Die Extrauteringravidität stellt mit einer Inzidenz von etwa 2% eine relativ häufige Komplikation dar. Die Anwendung sensitiver Schwangerschaftstests und der Vaginalsonographie ermöglicht eine frühe Diagnose und - in der Regel - die wenig invasive laparoskopische Operation. Wir berichten über eine Patientin mit einer selten vorkommenden Lokalisation der Extrauteringravidität im Parametrium. Es werden die Probleme der Diagnostik sowie die Therapiemöglichkeiten geschildert.
Expression and characterization of Campylobacter jejuni benzoylglycine amidohydrolase (Hippuricase) gene in Escherichia coli (1995)

The basis for the difference between Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli is the presence and expression of the N-benzoylglycine amidohydrolase (hippuricase) gene only in C. jejuni. A pBR322 recombinant clone (pHIP-O) of C. jejuni TGH9011 capable of converting hippuric acid into benzoic acid and glycine, the hallmark of hippuricase activity, was characterized and sequenced. The hippuricase gene (hipO) was identified by use of deletion subclones and insertional inactivation. The transcription start point of the hippuricase gene was determined by primer extension analysis. A hippuricase-specific gene fragment was used to determine the presence of the gene in Campylobacter species. Maxicell analysis of recombinant plasmid pHIP-O by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated the production of a 42-kDa protein corresponding to the HipO gene product, in excellent agreement with the predicted molecular mass of the protein.
Electrostatic actuator integrated optical near-field probe with bow-tie antenna for high transmission efficiency (2004)

In this paper, we report on the design and fabrication of an optical near-field probe in which an electrostatic actuator and a bow-tie antenna for the enhancement and modulation of an optical near-field are integrated. The bow-tie antenna consists of two triangular electrodes opposed with narrow a gap. The gap spacing of the bow-tie antenna can be adjusted by the electrostatic actuator, which offers both the small spot size of the optical near-field and the high transmission efficiency. The actuation of the fabricated probe is examined, and the optical modulation of an incident laser light is demonstrated.
Qillah: A Morphological Extension for Identifying Plural-of-Paucity Arabic Words (2020)

Plural of paucity is one type of broken plural used in the classical Arabic. It is used when the number of people or objects ranges from three to 10. Based on our evaluation of four current state-of-the-art Arabic morphological analyzers, there is a lack of identification of broken plural words, specifically the plural of paucity. Therefore, this paper presents Qillah (paucity), a morphological extension that is built on top of other morphological analyzers and uses a hybrid rule-based and lexicon-based approach to enhance the identification of plural of paucity. Two versions of the Qillah were developed, one is based on FARASA morphological analyzer and the other is based on CALIMA Star analyzer, as these are some of the best-performing morphological analyzers. We designed two experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of our proposed solution based on a collection of 402 different Arabic words. The version based on CALIMA Star achieved a maximum accuracy of 93% in identifying the plural-of-paucity words compared to the baselines. It also achieved a maximum accuracy of 98% compared to the baselines in identifying the plurality of the words.
C-Reactive Protein Colocalizes With Complement in Human Hearts During Acute Myocardial Infarction (1997)

We conclude that in humans, CRP may localize in infarcted heart tissue and suggest that this acute-phase protein promotes local complement activation, and hence tissue damage, in acute myocardial infarction.
Kernel Learning by quantum annealer (2023)

The Boltzmann machine is one of the various applications using quantum annealer. We propose an application of the Boltzmann machine to the kernel matrix used in various machine-learning techniques. We focus on the fact that shift-invariant kernel functions can be expressed in terms of the expected value of a spectral distribution by the Fourier transformation. Using this transformation, random Fourier feature (RFF) samples the frequencies and approximates the kernel function. In this paper, furthermore, we propose a method to obtain a spectral distribution suitable for the data using a Boltzmann machine. As a result, we show that the prediction accuracy is comparable to that of the method using the Gaussian distribution. We also show that it is possible to create a spectral distribution that could not be feasible with the Gaussian distribution.
Evaluation and Prediction of Drug Permeation (1999)

A major challenge confronting the pharmaceutical scientist is to optimize the selective and efficient delivery of new active entities and drug candidates. Successful drug development requires not only optimization of specific and potent pharmacodynamic activity, but also efficient delivery to the target site. Following advances in rational drug design, combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput screening techniques, the number of newly discovered and promising active compounds has increased dramatically in recent years, often making delivery problems the rate-limiting step in drug research. To overcome these problems, a good knowledge of the pharmacokinetic barriers encountered by bioactive compounds is required. This review gives an overview of the properties of relevant physiological barriers and presents some important biological models for evaluation of drug permeation and transport. Physicochemical determinants in drug permeation and the relevance of quantitative and qualitative approaches to the prediction and evaluation of passive drug absorption are also discussed.
Reduction of mode partition noise in a multiwavelength semiconductor laser through hybrid modelocking (2003)

Summary form only given. The longitudinal modes of a multimode laser diode suffer from intensity fluctuations that, when coupled with spectral filtering, result in mode partition noise (MPN). We have significantly decreased the MPN in a modelocked, multiwavelength semiconductor laser. A gain-guided GaAs-AlGaAs semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is inserted in an external cavity which incorporates a spectrometer and binary amplitude spatial filter to define individual wavelength channels. Our method exploits the saturable nonlinearity in a multiple-quantum-well (MQW) saturable absorber, along with high speed gain modulation, to establish hybrid modelocking in the external cavity semiconductor diode laser. The result is an error-free optical pulse train in each of the wavelength channels generated by the multiwavelength laser.
A tiled array of hybrid pixel detectors for X-ray imaging (2004)

A prototype multichip hybrid was developed, based on tiling together eight Medipix2 readout chips onto a single silicon sensor with a sensitive area of 28/spl times/56 mm/sup 2/ for a total of about 0.5 Mpixels. A main difficulty of this approach is in the high density of interconnections needed to read out all the circuits in such a tiled array. The amount of connectivity between the readout circuits is drastically reduced by the use of a high-speed serial protocol, allowing the use of low-voltage differential signaling at frequencies above 100 MHz. To mount the multichip hybrid, we are using a new printed-wire-board technology called multilayer sequential buildup with staggered micro-vias, which allows accommodation of the 128 wire bonds per chip on a ten-layer printed wire board, with smallest feature size of 60 /spl mu/m linewidth and 100 /spl mu/m pitch.
Multichannel detector for the VUV (1986)

A 2000-channel intensified diode array detector has been developed for use with a 1-m normal incidence spectrometer. The detector has been operated over the wavelength region 300–1700 Å with a readout interval of 20 ms to survey the spectrum of the DITE Tokamak. With this spectral coverage the resolution is sufficient (∼0.1 Å in first order) to monitor rotational shear from simultaneous observation of a range of ion species. Additionally, by restricting the number of channels recorded, the detector has been used to examine details of individual line profiles more frequently allowing the observation of rapid (2 ms) evolution of plasma’s mass motion effects. We also report on the intensity calibration of the spectrometer and detector combination using a deuterium lamp over the range 1700–1100 Å.
Effects of β-Hydroxy-β-Methylbutyrate Supplementation During Resistance Training on Strength, Body Composition, and Muscle Damage in Trained and Untrained Young Men: A Meta-Analysis (2009)

Beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) is a popular supplement in the resistance training community, with its use supported by claims of increased strength, muscle growth, and improved recovery; however, research outcomes are variable. Therefore, we meta-analyzed the effectiveness of HMB on strength, body composition, and muscle damage. Nine qualifying studies yielded 14 comparisons subcategorized by training experience (trained, untrained) to provide 12-13 estimates of strength (upper body, lower body, overall average), 13 estimates of fat and fat-free mass, and 7 estimates of the muscle-damage marker creatine kinase. The meta-analysis comprised 394 subjects (age 23 +/- 2 years, mean +/- between-study SD) with 5 +/- 2 weeks' intervention and 5 +/- 6 h.wk of training. The estimates were analyzed using a meta-analytic mixed model with study sample size as the weighting factor that included the main-effect covariates to control for between-study differences in HMB dose, intervention duration, training load, and dietary cointervention. To interpret magnitudes, meta-analyzed effects were standardized using the composite baseline between-subject SD and were qualified using modified Cohen effect size thresholds. There were small benefits to lower-body (mean +/- 90% confidence limit: 9.9% +/- 5.9%) and average strength (6.6 +/- 5.7%), but only negligible gains for upper-body strength (2.1 +/- 5.5%) were observed in untrained lifters. In trained lifters, all strength outcomes were trivial. Combined (all studies), the overall average strength increase was trivial (3.7 +/- 2.4%), although uncertainty allows for a small benefit. Effects on fat and fat-free mass were trivial, and results regarding creatine kinase were unclear. Supplementation with HMB during resistance training incurs small but clear overall and leg strength gains in previously untrained men, but effects in trained lifters are trivial. The HMB effect on body composition is inconsequential. An explanation for strength gains in previously untrained lifters requires further research.
Cone Frustum Part Simulation Performance of Turn-Mill Five-Axis Machine Tool (2013)

The current evaluation of machine tools’ machining performance relies on instruments measurement but not actual/real machining method. However, using instruments measurement evaluation is not only costly but also due to the installation defect of instruments, resulted in performance examination errors. This paper proposed to use titled condition of 10-15 degrees on the base of part’s clamp with VERICUT software to perform simulation for achieving the purpose of examine tools’ machining performance. Findings showed that under the tilted condition of 10-15 degree, turn-mill type of interruptions occurred and unable to proceed. Modification on the cone frustum and anti-cone frustum design was applied to overcome turn-mill interruptions issues. This simulation results showed achievement of turn-mill type tools’ machining performance evaluation with anti-cone frustum design.
Asynchronous relaxation of locally-coupled automata networks, with application to parallel VLSI implementation of iterative image processing algorithms (2002)

Array processors tailored to mesh-based iterative algorithms benefit from shifting to an asynchronous mode. An architecture implementing this functionally asynchronous state-space update with self-timed elementary processors can dispense with the overhead of classical data exchange protocols and offer a flexible hierarchical mapping of the state lattice onto the array. The performance and practical feasibility of this approach are assessed on two application examples: iterative elliptic PDE resolution and image motion estimation using mean field annealing based on Markov random fields models.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
Constructive and destructive aspects of embedded security in the internet of things (2013)

Through the prevalence of interconnected embedded systems, the vision of pervasive computing has become reality over the last few years. More recently, this evolutionary development has become better known as the Internet of Things. As part of this development, embedded security has become an increasingly important issue in a multitude of applications. Examples include the Stuxnet virus, which has allegedly delayed the Iranian nuclear program, killer applications in the consumer area like iTunes or Amazon's Kindle (the business models of which rely on IP protection) and even medical implants like pace makers and insulin pumps that allow remote configuration. These examples show the destructive and constructive aspects of modern embedded security. In this tutorial we will address both the constructive and "penetration testing" aspect of embedded security.
Power saving and throughput analysis of a novel MAC algorithm in WSN (2013)

Recent research activities focus on low power and low cost sensor networks. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) contain hundreds of autonomous sensor nodes which perform a required sensing or monitoring for harsh environments. In designing WSNs, limited power is considered to be the main constraint since frequently recharging a battery for a WSN node is not-feasible. Therefore, efficient utilization of power in WSNs has been addressed and investigated heavily in the literature. In this paper we analyze the performance of a novel power saving algorithm which avoids the rather high computational complexity of existing coding/decoding schemes to qualify the sanity of a packet. In addition, our proposed algorithm reduces the delay incurred in order to buffer and decode a received packet due to its ability to make a fast decision on the sanity of the received packet with low false alarm and miss probabilities which result in low throughput penalty, yet achieves a significant power saving advantage with low-complexity HW. We present simulation performance results on the amount of anticipated power saving versus the incurred throughput penalty and compare with various coding schemes commonly used in WSN's.
Rotating polarization using Berry’s phase in asymmetric silicon strip waveguides (2019)

Light propagating in an out-of-plane curvilinear waveguide acquires a Berry's phase, which rotates optical polarization. The effect is promising for realizing waveguide polarization controllers. In high index contrast platforms, such as silicon-on-insulator, however, small waveguide cross-sectional asymmetries reduce the amount of polarization rotation. To overcome this, we present a method based on the periodic spatial modulation of Berry's phase. Ninety degree polarization rotation is achieved, even in the presence of waveguide asymmetry. Using a numerical model based on Jones calculus, we demonstrate the approach with 303×300 nm<sup>2</sup> asymmetric silicon waveguides. We convert polarization from transverse electric to transverse magnetic with a polarization extinction ratio (PER) greater than 20 dB PER over a 100 nm bandwidth in a 110×240 μm<sup>2</sup>footprint.
Modélisation inverse pour la qualité de l'air : éléments de méthodologie et exemples (2007)

L'objet de cet article est de donner quelques elements methodologiques pour la modelisation inverse des emissions en qualite de l'air : comment caracteriser des emissions sur la base de donnees mesurees et de sorties de modeles numeriques ? Trois exemples issus de travaux recents menes au sein du CEREA, Laboratoire commun ENPC/EDF R&D, permettent d'illustrer ces thematiques : la modelisation inverse de radionucleides a petite echelle, la modelisation de precurseurs de l'ozone (NOx) a l'echelle regionale (region de Lille) et lʼidentification d'une source accidentelle a l'echelle continentale (experience ETEX). Il ne s'agit donc pas d'une revue exhaustive sur le sujet.
Brucella abortus Infection Elicited Hepatic Stellate Cell-Mediated Fibrosis Through Inflammasome-Dependent IL-1β Production (2020)

In human brucellosis, the liver is frequently affected. <i>Brucella abortus</i> triggers a profibrotic response on hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) characterized by inhibition of MMP-9 with concomitant collagen deposition and TGF-β1 secretion through type 4 secretion system (T4SS). Taking into account that it has been reported that the inflammasome is necessary to induce a fibrotic phenotype in HSC, we hypothesized that <i>Brucella</i> infection might create a microenvironment that would promote inflammasome activation with concomitant profibrogenic phenotype in HSCs. <i>B. abortus</i> infection induces IL-1β secretion in HSCs in a T4SS-dependent manner. The expression of caspase-1 (Casp-1), absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), Nod-like receptor (NLR) containing a pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3), and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) was increased in <i>B. abortus</i>-infected HSC. When infection experiments were performed in the presence of glyburide, a compound that inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome, or A151, a specific AIM2 inhibitor, the secretion of IL-1β was significantly inhibited with respect to uninfected controls. The role of inflammasome activation in the induction of a fibrogenic phenotype in HSCs was determined by performing <i>B. abortus</i> infection experiments in the presence of the inhibitors Ac-YVAD-cmk and glyburide. Both inhibitors were able to reverse the effect of <i>B. abortus</i> infection on the fibrotic phenotype in HSCs. Finally, the role of inflammasome in fibrosis was corroborated <i>in vivo</i> by the reduction of fibrotic patches in liver from <i>B. abortus</i>-infected ASC, NLRP, AIM2, and cCasp-1/11 knock-out (KO) mice with respect to infected wild-type mice.
