Go Programming Language (2015)

The Go Programming Language is the authoritative resource for any programmer who wants to learn Go. It shows how to write clear and idiomatic Go to solve real-world problems. The book does not assume prior knowledge of Go nor experience with any specific language, so youll find it accessible whether youre most comfortable with JavaScript, Ruby, Python, Java, or C++. The first chapter is a tutorial on the basic concepts of Go, introduced through programs for file I/O and text processing, simple graphics, and web clients and servers. Early chapters cover the structural elements of Go programs: syntax, control flow, data types, and the organization of a program into packages, files, and functions. The examples illustrate many packages from the standard library and show how to create new ones of your own. Later chapters explain the package mechanism in more detail, and how to build, test, and maintain projects using the go tool. The chapters on methods and interfaces introduce Gos unconventional approach to object-oriented programming, in which methods can be declared on any type and interfaces are implicitly satisfied. They explain the key principles of encapsulation, composition, and substitutability using realistic examples. Two chapters on concurrency present in-depth approaches to this increasingly important topic. The first, which covers the basic mechanisms of goroutines and channels, illustrates the style known as communicating sequential processes for which Go is renowned. The second covers more traditional aspects of concurrency with shared variables. These chapters provide a solid foundation for programmers encountering concurrency for the first time. The final two chapters explore lower-level features of Go. One covers the art of metaprogramming using reflection. The other shows how to use the unsafe package to step outside the type system for special situations, and how to use the cgo tool to create Go bindings for C libraries. The book features hundreds of interesting and practical examples of well-written Go code that cover the whole language, its most important packages, and a wide range of applications. Each chapter has exercises to test your understanding and explore extensions and alternatives. Source code is freely available for download from http://gopl.io/ and may be conveniently fetched, built, and installed using the go get command.
The influence of aerospace-performance requirements on development of advanced structural materials (1987)

Abstract Historically the use of new materials in aircraft construction has accounted for the major amount of mass reduction by new technology. The continuation of this role for new materials in aerospace vehicles in the 1990s is reviewed. The materials scientists’ vastly increased ability to synthesize new materials and tailor mechanical and physical properties has created the need for an interdisciplinary approach among aircraft designers and materials scientists in the development of new materials. A system to assess and quantify potential benefits from aims for property improvement is described. Application of this mass-savings methodology to a typical aircraft is presented with the results associated with varying percentage property improvements in strength, stiffness, durability, damage tolerance and density. The need to obtain vastly improved corrosion resistance in magnesium alloys and higher fracture toughness in metal matrix composites is briefly discussed. Trends in high-temperature aluminium-alloy development and property comparisons with titanium are given. Carbon-fibre reinforced resin matrix composites are discussed in terms of failure modes and design allowable strain for thermoset and thermoplastic systems. Cost of current composite structure is compared with that of aluminium and approaches to reduce manufacturing cost of composites are given. General requirements are presented for high-temperature materials for hypersonic and re-usable orbital vehicles. A basic structural integrity plan for emerging materials is outlined that identifies specific technology transition needs and the related tasks that must be accomplished before new materials can be incorporated into aircraft structures.
Albumin modulation of capillary permeability: test of an adsorption mechanism (1985)

We investigated further the mechanism whereby albumin interacts with the walls of capillary blood vessels to maintain normal permeability properties. In individually perfused capillaries of frog mesentery, hydraulic conductivity was measured as the albumin perfusate concentration was first reduced in three steps from 0.1 to 0 g/dl (intermediate concns 0.01 and 0.001 g/dl), then increased in up to four steps to 1 g/dl (intermediate concns 0.001, 0.01, and 0.1 g/dl). The albumin concentration required to return hydraulic conductivity toward control values, following Ringer perfusion, was at least an order of magnitude larger than that required to maintain permeability close to control values prior to Ringer perfusion. The experiments indicate that the affinity of albumin for binding sites on the capillary wall following Ringer perfusion is less than the albumin affinity for binding sites after the capillary has been perfused with solutions containing 0.1 g/dl albumin. Before the hysteresis of hydraulic conductivity on albumin concentration can be understood, the factors determining the transport of albumin into the membrane must be investigated further.
The Impact of Primary Hyperparathyroidism on the Oral Cavity (2006)

Changes in the oral cavity observed in patients with HPT suggested both decreased cortical density and increased likelihood of oral tori. The contemporary oral manifestations of primary HPT are different from those previously reported, and health care providers should be aware of newer, more subtle findings that may be present when treating patients with HPT.
Superiorization: An optimization heuristic for medical physics (2012)

The range of applicability of superiorization to constrained optimization problems is very large. Its major utility is in the automatic nature of producing a superiorization algorithm from an algorithm aimed at only constraints-compatibility; while nonheuristic (exact) approaches need to be redesigned for a new optimization criterion. Thus superiorization provides a quick route to algorithms for the practical solution of constrained optimization problems.
Dependent‐Variable Transformation for the Treatment of Diffusion, Migration, and Homogeneous Reactions: Application to a Corroding Pit (1993)

The anodic dissolution of nickel in chloride medium is treated for a stagnant solution and the hemispherical cavity geometry common to the dissolution of passivating, corrosion‐resistant metals. A new coordinate system developed recently by the authors again proves to be useful in dealing with the problem numerically, particularly with regard to the singularity at the pit lip. The quasipotential transformation allows us to reduce the coupled, nonlinear partial differential equations governing the concentrations and the potential to a single linear equation, Laplace's equation, with a great reduction in computation time and an increase in the accuracy attainable. The method thus treats coupled diffusion and migration with an arbitrary number of facile homogeneous reactions and the participation of an arbitrary number of species in the heterogeneous electrode reaction. Numerical calculations for the dissolution of nickel in chloride solutions are compared with published experimental results.

ARIA Digital Anamorphosis: Digital Transformation of Health and Care in Airway Diseases from Research to Practice (2020)

Digital anamorphosis is used to define a distorted image of health and care that may be viewed correctly using digital tools and strategies. MASK digital anamorphosis represents the process used by MASK to develop the digital transformation of health and care in rhinitis. It strengthens the ARIA change management strategy in the prevention and management of airway disease. The MASK strategy is based on validated digital tools. Using the MASK digital tool and the CARAT online enhanced clinical framework, solutions for practical steps of digital enhancement of care are proposed.
P19-52 LB. Assessing and restructuring foreign gene insertion sites for enhanced stability of modified Vaccinia virus ankara recombinants expressing HIV genes (2009)

Background Recombinant MVA expressing HIV genes are currently being tested in phase I and II vaccine trials. During efforts to make rMVA/HIV candidate vaccines, we found variable stability of inserted gene expression. Maintaining stability upon repeated passage for vaccine production while keeping high expression of inserted gene for increased immunogenicity is highly desirable. In continuation of efforts to improve stability, we now compare three insertion sites in the MVA genome using the same HIV env gene.
Association of Immune Responsiveness to Cytomegalovirus Infection with Survival of Renal Allografts (1980)

The association of immune responsiveness to cytomegalovirus infection was studied in relation to survival of renal allografts. The presence of anti-cytomegalovirus antibody in the pre-transplant patient was not associated with any detrimental effect on the graft survival. The presence or absence of cytomegalovirus antigen or of cytomegalovirus antibody, or later development of cytomegalovirus antibody, in no way affected the graft survival. The same conclusion was reached in cases when kidneys from male donors were used in cytomegalovirus antibody-postive patients.
Relating CO2 fluxes to spectral vegetation indices in tundra landscapes: importance of footprint definition (1995)

Abstract Carbon flux measurements made at an elevated point are associated with an effective upwind area or ‘footprint.’ Since Arctic tundra landscapes can exhibit substantial heterogeneity within the footprint of an eddy correlation tower, it may be necessary to determine the relative point source contributions to the observed flux if landscape properties are to be related to the flux. This study evaluates the potential importance of representing footprint source contributions in relationships that are developed between tower observations of net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide (NEE) and a remotely sensed spectral vegetation index. Satellite data collected over the foothills region of the North Slope of Alaska are used to determine spatial patterns of a spectral vegetation index in the calculated footprints of 30 randomly selected tower locations. A previously developed relationship between NEE and the vegetation index is used to calculate NEE at each tower location using two techniques, one that explicitly considers the footprint pattern of relative contributions to tower fluxes and another that ignores these patterns. The results indicate that if carbon fluxes measured at a tower are to be related to remotely sensed spectral vegetation indices, then it is necessary to consider the relative flux contributions from within the tower footprints for sites on the North Slope of Alaska.
Condition monitoring of rotor faults in induction motors by injection of low frequency signals into the supply (1998)

Nowadays most modern drive motors tend to be squirrel-cage induction motors because of their superior 'power to weight' ratio. Hence most industrial motors are practically maintenance-free because of the absence of commutators and slip rings. There is, however, a danger that the electrical engineers are taking those motors too much for granted. Indeed, induction motors can only be very reliable if proper attentions are given. Moreover, it is well known that unexpected failures in such drives could result in many unpleasant situations. Coupled with the fact that the cost of testing these motors periodically is only a small fraction of the total maintenance cost in a drive system, any responsible electrical engineer should introduce a well planned condition monitoring schedule to maximum the reliability of their induction motor drives.
The Antibody Molecule (2000)

The importance of antibody molecules was first recognized in the 1890s, when it was shown that immunity to tetanus and diphtheria was caused by antibodies against the bacterial exotoxins (1). Around the same time, it was shown that antisera against cholera vibrios could transfer immunity to naïve animals, and also kill the bacteria in vitro (1). However, although antitoxin antibodies rapidly found clinical application, there was little understanding regarding the nature of the antibody molecule. Indeed, the earliest theories suggested that the antitoxins were derived by modification of the toxinintriguingly similar "antigen incorporation" theories were propounded as late as 1930 (1).
Evaporation- and absorption-rate of potassium through blast-furnace slag. (1985)

Evaporation of potassium from slag was investigated in order to estimate the effect of chemical composition and temperature. The evaporation rate increased with addition of basic oxide as FeO, CaO and MgO and it decreased with addition of amphoteric oxide such as alumina and titanium dioxide. Addition of MgO substituted by CaO under constant basicity B=(CaO+MgO)/SiO2 affected positively the delayed evaporation of potassium oxide.
A visual programming interface for Smalltalk (2002)

It has been hypothesized that "visual" programming can lead to faster development and better programs. Whether this hope is justified still remains to be seen and one of the aims of the work is to provide tools allowing an objective exploration of this hypothesis. The visual syntax described in the paper defines a graphical representation of messages and the "flow" of objects within a method. Its implementation allows methods to be viewed and edited either graphically or as text with immediate conversion from one form to the other. Graphical representation eliminates certain types of programming errors and provides better presentation of the semantics and logic of the code. It also helps visualise code tracing in a more object-oriented way. While the experience suggests that graphical representation makes code easier to understand, further empirical study is required.
Brain injury and recovery of function: Theories and mechanisms of functional reorganization (1992)

The relationships between brain injury, functional-neural reorganization, and recovery of function are examined from historical and contemporary perspectives. Using redundancy and vicarlation theories, the history of functional reorganization Is traced through modem-day research on neural reorganization mechanisms that may mediate recovery of function following brain damage. Neuronal sparing (prevention of nerve cell death) and reorganization (denervation supersensltivlty, reactive synaptogenesis, chemical growth-survival factors, and fetal brain tissue grafts) are discussed. The potential for these neuronal sparing and reorganization mechanisms to enhance recovery of function following brain injury is considered.
Convolution operation implemented in FPGA structures for real-time image processing (2002)

Addition is an essential operation for convolution (or FIR filters). In FPGAs, addition should be carried out in a standard way employing ripple-carry adders (rather than carry-save adders), which complicates the search for an optimal adder structure as routing order has a substantial influence on the addition cost. Further, complex parameters of addition inputs have been considered e.g. correlation between inputs. These parameters are specified in different ways for different convolver architectures: multiplierless multiplication, look-up table based multiplication, distributed arithmetic. Furthermore, different optimisation techniques, exhausted search and simulated annealing, have been implemented. Otherwise, exhausted search should be employed for the number of the addition inputs n/spl les/8 or simulated annealing for n>8. Employing simulated annealing gives about 10-20% area reduction in comparison to the greedy algorithm. This paper is a part of the research on the AuToCon-automated tool for generating convolution in FPGAs.
Lower Limb Trauma Caused by Power-Driven Cultivators (1998)

These agricultural machines can cause severe trauma, and the resulting wounds are contaminated by telluric germs in rural areas. Paradoxically, power-driven cultivators are not legally classified as "dangerous machines." Modification of existing legislation in this field would seem advisable.

Surgical and refractive outcomes of cataract surgery with toric intraocular lens implantation at a resident-teaching institution (2011)

The added complexity associated with toric IOL placement resulted in spherical and astigmatic improvements without compromising patient safety beyond a level inherent in resident-based cataract surgery.
Gadolinium Chelates in Angiography and Interventional Radiology: A Useful Alternative to Iodinated Contrast Media for Angiography (2002)

Gadolinium has physical properties that are well suited for radiographic imaging. Digital subtraction angiography with a gadolinium chelate as contrast medium can provide images of suitable quality for diagnosis and intervention. The overall safety profile of gadolinium-based contrast media is excellent. In particular, these contrast media are well tolerated in patients with renal insufficiency when administered intraarterially in doses of less than 0.3-0.4 mmol per kilogram body weight, with a decreased incidence of contrast medium-induced nephropathy, as compared with similar volumes of iodinated contrast material. The currently available formulations of gadolinium chelates can be injected safely into every arterial and venous structure. However, substantial data are lacking on the intraarterial use of gadolinium in patients with renal insufficiency, particularly at doses that exceed those routinely used in magnetic resonance angiography. Gadolinium chelates in appropriate volumes are useful alternative contrast media in selected high-risk patients undergoing angiographic studies.
Broadband IP Transmission over SPACEWAY&#x00AE; Satellite with On-Board Processing and Switching (2011)

Geo-synchronous SPACEWAY® Ka-band satellite system offers a wide range of user data rates and services on a "bandwidth-on-demand" (BOD) basis. The 30 GHz user uplink (UL) employs narrow-band FDMA/TDMA, whereas 20 GHz user downlink (DL) employs broadband TDMA. Satellite payload consists of a fixed multi-beam receive antenna, a bank of onboard digital de-multiplexing/demodulation/decoding processors, a dynamic packet routing switch, a bank of multiplexing/modulation/encoding processors, a bank of power amplifiers and a hopping-beam transmit array antenna per polarization. This payload architecture enables single-hop, low-latency, full-meshed, user terminal to user terminal connectivity by avoiding double hops to a central hub. Delivery of services to users is provided via low-cost, small-aperture terminals (e.g., 1W HPA and <;0.7m antenna). SPACEWAY® satellite supports a peak capacity of 10 Gbps of raw user data when operating in a point to point (PTP) transmission mode. Dynamic power control is employed to minimize co-channel interference in the user uplinks, and to combat rain fades in both up- and down- links. Payload bandwidth and time slots are assigned based on demand.
Evaluation of nuclear‐reactor‐produced Iodine‐123 (1976)

Iodine-123 has such great potential to nuclear medicine that all possible production methods should be considered. In this report an experimental study related to 123l production at a high-intensity fast flux reactor using the reaction 124Xe(n,2n)123Xe is considered. The conclusion is that 123l could be made in small quantities and the cost would be higher than the cyclotron methods presently used.
First challenge of PTP time synchronization experiment through the experimental satellite for communication, “WINDS” (2012)

We performed and succeeded in the time synchronization through the experimental satellite for communication, WINDS using PTP [1]. PTP is the protocol for time synchronization which is also called IEEE 1588. It is said that PTP is more accurate than NTP which is popular for us as the time synchronization protocol because of their synchronization algorithm. WINDS is the communication satellite launched by JAXA, JAPAN, 2008. The Japanese WINDS satellite shows the top level bandwidth of Giga bit level. The satellite links are very effective to transfer very heavy contents of the distant e-Medicine and e-Education. We have been supported the construction of Japanese JICA ICT Centre in the University of the South Pacific (USP). The servers connected wirelessly for Medical ICT like e-Medicine must be synchronized within 1 second because the exchange and storage the data is needed to be included accurate time-stamp. Hence, PTP will be of help in such situation.
Awareness and agility for autonomic distributed systems: platform-independent and publish-subscribe event-based communication for mobile agents (2004)

We propose using the publish-subscribe model to complement proprietary or standard agent communication languages, useful particularly in the case of exchanging and disseminating short communications about events and consequently, reducing complexity of multi-agent messaging. We describe how we implemented the event notification mechanism for mobile agents, and analyse experiments that demonstrate the Elvin-based event notification mechanism for communication between Grasshopper agents and aglets. We also discuss message loss due to agent migration and offer solutions to reliable communication between mobile agents using events.

An SDP-Based Divide-and-Conquer Algorithm for Large-scale Noisy Anchor-free Graph Realization (2009)

We propose the DISCO algorithm for graph realization in $\mathbb{R}^d$, given sparse and noisy short-range intervertex distances as inputs. Our divide-and-conquer algorithm works as follows. When a group has a sufficiently small number of vertices, the basis step is to form a graph realization by solving a semidefinite program. The recursive step is to break a large group of vertices into two smaller groups with overlapping vertices. These two groups are solved recursively, and the subconfigurations are stitched together, using the overlapping atoms, to form a configuration for the larger group. At intermediate stages, the configurations are improved by gradient descent refinement. The algorithm is applied to the problem of determining protein moleculer structure. Tests are performed on molecules taken from the Protein Data Bank database. For each molecule, given 20–30% of the inter-atom distances less than 6Å that are corrupted by a high level of noise, DISCO is able to reliably and efficiently reconstruct the conformation of large molecules. In particular, given 30% of distances with 20% multiplicative noise, a 13000-atom conformation problem is solved within an hour with a root mean square deviation of 1.6Å.
