SNA: Current requirements and direction (1987)

Since its announcement in 1974, Systems Network Architecture (SNA) has evolved in terms of its functional content, configurational flexibility, and network management services. This paper briefly traces this progress to the present and examines the more recent advances in greater detail. It then discusses known requirements for enhanced application and transaction services, for additional provisions for very large networks, for continuing adaptation of small-system and transmission media advances, for inclusion of additional management capabilities, and for further integration of network standards—all of which will shape future SNA developments.
Efficient approach to health care industry material resource management: an empirical research. (1992)

The feasibility of JIT implementation in the health care industry was examined through in-depth case studies and survey research. Specifically, this research examined two different groups in the health care industry: health care institutions that have introduced JIT philosophy into their operations and those that have not. Based on this classification, the research reveals the different impacts that the introduction of JIT philosophy has had on the health care industry's inventory management, service quality, and competitiveness. According to the research result, the introduction of the JIT philosophy in the health care industry's material management system improved that system and reduced implementation problems even though the differences between the JH and the NJH were not high. However, this research found that great potentials exist for the successful implementation of JIT philosophy for material management even though most of the JIT in the health care industry is still in its early stages. Moreover, with the maturing of the stockless material management system, differences between the JH and the NJH groups will be even more significant.
Individualization of Flavor Preferences: Toward a Consumer‐centric and Individualized Aroma Science (2004)

Personal dietary choices are largely based on flavor preferences. Thus understanding individual flavor perception and preference is vital to understanding the basis of human diet selection. We have developed novel tools to measure in real time and at an individual level volatile aroma compounds delivered breath-by-breath to the nose while eating and drinking. The same food may deliver different aromas to different people, due the specificities of their in-mouth environment (inter-individual differences). Moreover, a person may eat a given food in a different manner, leading to variations in the aroma profile reaching the nose (intra-individual differences). Understanding the basis of these differences opens the door to an individualized aroma science and the road to delivering nutritional value and health through products consumers prefer. The challenge to the food industry is to align what the consumer wants with what the consumer needs, delivering nutritional value and health through products they prefer.
VEGETATION PATTERN FORMATION IN SEMI-ARID GRAZING SYSTEMS (2001)

Hypotheses about the origin of vegetation pattern formation in semi-arid areas around the world almost all include a common feature of semi-arid areas: the presence of a positive feedback between plant density and water infiltration. We investigate whether this positive feedback and the spatial redistribution of runoff water are sufficient to explain vegetation pattern formation. For this purpose, we analyze a spatially explicit model consisting of partial differential equations using a method for demonstrating pattern formation (Turing analysis). Our analysis reveals that pattern formation can occur in semi-arid areas given only the positive feedback between plant density and local water infiltration coupled with the spatial redistribution of runoff water. Thus, slope and underlying heterogeneity are not essential conditions. Other factors in the model, such as herbivory, plant dispersal, rainfall, and drought tolerance of plants, appear to determine under what conditions pattern formation is likely but are not the primary factors that generate the patterns. The model is in agreement with field observations and indicates the conditions for which vegetation pattern formation can be expected in arid and semi-arid grazing systems.

Iron Sequestration by Galloyl–Silane Nano Coatings Inhibits Biofilm Formation of Sulfitobacter sp. (2023)

Microbially-induced corrosion is the acceleration of corrosion induced by bacterial biofilms. The bacteria in the biofilms oxidize metals on the surface, especially evident with iron, to drive metabolic activity and reduce inorganic species such as nitrates and sulfates. Coatings that prevent the formation of these corrosion-inducing biofilms significantly increase the service life of submerged materials and significantly decrease maintenance costs. One species in particular, a member of the Roseobacter clade, <i>Sulfitobacter</i> sp., has demonstrated iron-dependent biofilm formation in marine environments. We have found that compounds that contain the galloyl moiety can prevent <i>Sulfitobacter</i> sp. biofilm formation by sequestering iron, thus making a surface unappealing for bacteria. Herein, we have fabricated surfaces with exposed galloyl groups to test the effectiveness of nutrient reduction in iron-rich media as a non-toxic method to reduce biofilm formation.
Improved measurement of time-dependentCPasymmetries and theCP-odd fraction in the decayB0→D*+D*− (2007)

We present an updated measurement of time-dependent CP asymmetries and the CP-odd fraction in the decay B0-->D*+D*- using 232x10(6)BB pairs collected by the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II B factory. We determine the CP-odd fraction to be 0.125+/-0.044(stat)+/-0.007(syst). The time-dependent CP asymmetry parameters C+ and S+ are determined to be 0.06+/-0.17(stat)+/-0.03(syst) and -0.75+/-0.25(stat)+/-0.03(syst), respectively. The standard model predicts these parameters to be 0 and -sin2beta, respectively, in the absence of penguin amplitude contributions.
Identification of a new isotope,Tb165 (1983)

A previously unreported isotope, $^{165}\mathrm{Tb}$, has been identified, and its half-life has been measured to be 2.11\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.10 min. This activity was observed in the Tb fraction separated, using a high-performance liquid chromatograph, from the fission products resulting from spontaneous fission of $^{252}\mathrm{Cf}$. Some 24 $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ rays have been associated with the $^{165}\mathrm{Tb}$ decay, \ensuremath{\sim}16 of which have been placed in a level scheme for $^{165}\mathrm{Dy}$. New features of the $^{165}\mathrm{Dy}$ level scheme are excited states at 1337.1, 1400.2, 1773.1, and possibly 1813.7 keV, which are fed by $\ensuremath{\beta}$ transitions with $log\mathrm{ft}$ values between 5.1 and 5.7. Configuration assignments for these states are discussed.RADIOACTIVITY $^{165}\mathrm{Tb}$, measured ${T}_{\frac{1}{2}}$, ${E}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$, ${I}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$; $^{165}\mathrm{Dy}$ deduced levels $J$, $\ensuremath{\pi}$, $log\mathrm{ft}$.

<title>Crystal diffraction lens telescope for focusing nuclear gamma rays</title> (1996)

A crystal diffraction lens was constructed at Argonne National Laboratory for use as a telescope to focus nuclear gamma rays. It consists of 600 single crystals of germanium arranged in 8 concentric rings. The mounted angle of each crystal was adjusted to intercept and diffract the incoming gamma rays with an accuracy of a few arcsec. The performance of the lens was tested in two ways. In one case, the gamma rays were focused on a single medium size germanium detector. In the second case, the gamma rays were focused on the central germanium detector of a 3 multiplied by 3 matrix of small germanium detectors. The efficiency, image concentration and image quality, and shape were measured. The tests performed with the 3 by 3 matrix detector system were particularly interesting. The wanted radiation was concentrated in the central detector. The 8 other detectors were used to detect the Compton scattered radiation, and their energy was summed with coincident events in the central detector. This resulted in a detector with the efficiency of a large detector (all 9 elements) and the background of a small detector (only the central element). The use of the 3 multiplied by 3 detector matrix makes it possible to tell if the source is off axis and, if so, to tell in which direction. The crystal lens acts very much like a simple convex lens for visible light. Thus if the source is off to the left then the image will focus off to the right illuminating the detector on the right side: telling one in which direction to point the telescope. Possible applications of this type of crystal lens to balloon and satellite experiments are discussed.
Synthesis of Magnolignan, a New Pigment Lightening Component, via a Suzuki‐Miyaura Reaction (2012)

Magnolignan, 2,2′‐dihydroxy‐5,5′‐dipropyl‐biphenyl ( 1 ), is a down‐regulator of melanin synthesis that inhibits the maturation of tyrosinase. In this study, a concise total synthesis of 1 was achieved in five steps with 50% overall yield starting from commercially available trans ‐anethole ( 2 ) via a Suzuki‐Miyaura reaction.
Polar Attributes of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (2005)

Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) is increasingly promoted as an environmentally benign alternative to conventional organic solvents. The supercritical state bridges the gap between liquid and gaseous states by offering gaslike diffusion rates and liquidlike solvent densities, thereby enabling potential opportunities as a reaction and separation medium in chemical industry. Understanding the solvent behavior of liquid and scCO(2) is of critical importance to enable the design of CO(2)-philic molecular systems and to expand the use of these solvent systems to a wider range of chemical processes. Historically CO(2) was treated as a nonpolar solvent, primarily because of its low dielectric constant and zero molecular dipole moment. CO(2) has also been described as a quadrupolar solvent because of its significant quadrupole moment. Recent studies suggest that, as far as the microscopic solvent behavior of CO(2) is concerned, CO(2) has the potential to act as both a weak Lewis acid and Lewis base. Also, strong theoretical and experimental evidence indicates that CO(2) can participate in conventional or nonconventional hydrogen-bonding interactions. All of these site-specific solute-solvent interactions are important to understand the fundamental nature of CO(2) as a solvent. In this Account, we discuss these polar attributes of CO(2) and their relation to solvation.
Analog memory capacitor based on field-configurable ion-doped polymers (2009)

A memory capacitor based on a field-configurable ion-doped polymer is reported. The device can be dynamically and reversibly programed to analog capacitances with low-voltage (&amp;lt;5V) pulses. After the device is programed to a specific value, its capacitance remains nonvolatile. The field-configurable capacitance is attributed to the modification of ionic dopant concentrations in the polymer. The memory capacitors might be used for analog memory, nonlinear analog, and neuromorphic circuits.
Artificial intelligence-based applications in shoulder surgery leaves much to be desired: a systematic review (2023)

Applications of AI in the field of shoulder surgery are expanding rapidly and offer patient-specific risk stratification for shared decision-making and process automation for resource preservation. However, model performance is modest and external validation remains to be demonstrated, suggesting increased scientific rigor is warranted prior to deploying AI-based clinical applications.
E-deposit in academic use (2003)

The e-Deposit is a deposit that could be managed in electronic form. The concept of fund accessible for different financial transaction makes the e-Deposit appropriate for use at universities. The application is implemented in three-tier architecture. Because of the extensive exchange of financial data over the Internet, the data integrity is secured. The business and data access tier are implemented in a modular manner helping the robustness of the application and reducing the risk of unwanted behavior. Special modules are used, that enable the integration of an e-commerce scenario in an already existing university information system.
6 Interpreting immune infiltrates and hormone biomarkers in young women with endometrial carcinoma (EC) through a moder lens (POST-TCGA) of molecular classification (2019)

<h3>Objectives</h3> Approximately 15% of ECs are diagnosed in women before the natural age of menopause. Fertility-sparing conservative management options are increasingly utilized, however biomarkers to inform prognosis or direct therapy are lacking. We sought to determine the value of additional immunohistochemical biomarkers in young women with EC in the context of modern TCGA-based molecular classification. <h3>Methods</h3> Allred scores for estrogen/progesterone/androgen receptor and Ki67 in addition to immune characterization measuring stromal and epithelial expression of CD3/CD8/CD79a/CD138/PD1 and TIL<sup>high</sup> vs. TIL<sup>low</sup> clusters was performed in a cohort of previously characterized(n=257) young women (&lt;50yo) with EC. Testing for association of biomarkers with clinicopathological parameters, ProMisE molecular subtype (mismatch repair deficient (MMRd), <i>POLE</i> mutated (POLE), p53wildtype (p53wt) and p53abnormal (p53abn)) and outcomes was performed. <h3>Results</h3> Young women had a high proportion of immune-rich ECs: 80% TILhigh compared with 60% TILhigh in non-age stratified cohorts. Expression of all immune biomarkers was enriched within POLE and MMRd subtypes. Within MMRd and p53wt ECs TILhigh immune cluster was associated with improved overall-(OS)and disease-specific survival (DSS)(p&lt;0.05 for all). High ER and PR expression was associated with low-grade ECs, and increased PD1 expression. A trend (LRT p-value 0.1) towards improved OS(HR 0.4) and DSS(HR 0.273) in high PR-expression ECs was observed. Inconsistencies in progesterone treatment (dose, duration) precluded our ability to make firm conclusions on PR thresholds and efficacy. In multivariable analysis only ProMisE subtype showed independent prognostic significance. <h3>Conclusions</h3> Molecular classification with additional selective biomarker testing can provide additional prognostic information and may help stratify young women with ECs for targeted therapies.
Topics in Neonatal Informatics (2012)

The future of neonatal informatics will be driven by the availability of increasingly vast amounts of clinical and genetic data. The field of translational bioinformatics is concerned with linking and learning from these data and applying new findings to clinical care to transform the data into proactive, predictive, preventive, and participatory health. As a result of advances in translational informatics, the care of neonates will become more data driven, evidence based, and personalized.
Reparallelization and Migration of OpenMP Programs (2007)

Typical computational grid users target only a single cluster and have to estimate the runtime of their jobs. Job schedulers prefer short-running jobs to maintain a high system utilization. If the user underestimates the runtime, premature termination causes computation loss; overestimation is penalized by long queue times. As a solution, we present an automatic reparallelization and migration of OpenMP applications. A reparallelization is dynamically computed for an OpenMP work distribution when the number of CPUs changes. The application can be migrated between clusters when an allocated time slice is exceeded. Migration is based on a coordinated, heterogeneous checkpointing algorithm. Both reparallelization and migration enable the user to freely use computing time at more than a single point of the grid. Our demo applications successfully adapt to the changed CPU setting and smoothly migrate between, for example, clusters in Erlangen, Germany, and Amsterdam, the Netherlands, that use different processors. Benchmarks show that reparallelization and migration impose average overheads of about 4% and 2%.
Thermal stresses around TSV structure in stacked Si chips (2014)

Recently, the downsizing and high-performing semiconductor packages have been developed and 3D packaging has been spurred research into reliability of TSV (through silicon via) [l]-[9]. In conventional SiP (System in Package), several semiconductor chips had been arranged in a plate. It is difficult to correspond to downsizing and high-performing of electronic devices because that large area is occupied by the package. The semiconductor chips have been stacked and TSVs have been used to communicate between the chips in order to solve above problems. The 3D stacked structure which was developed by ASET (Association of Su per-Advanced Electronics Technologies) [10] is shown in Fig.1. TSV (copper) is electrode which passes through silicon chip and micro bump (copper) [11] is arranged between chips. Heat is generated in package due to operation of semiconductor device, and it has been reported that silicon is broken by thermal stress which is depend on temperature increment. In case of 3D-SÌP, higher stress has to be considered in the most outer part of TSV and micro bump structure due to warp and mismatch of CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) of material. Therefore simulations with detail model must be desired for more accurate evaluation of stresses in Si chips and TSVs. However it is difficult that all of TSVs and micro bumps in chips were modeled due to large number of numerical data even if the latest computing systems have been adopted.
Actividad in vitro de extractos etanólicos de propóleos del bajo cauca antioqueño sobre dos hongos filamentosos y uno levaduriforme (2016)

El propóleos es una resina colectada por las abejas Apis mellifera de especies botánicas, próximas a los apiarios. Este material resinoso es ampliamente reconocido por sus propiedades antimicrobianas. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la actividad antifúngica in vitro de los extractos etanólicos de propóleos (EEP), obtenidos a partir de muestras provenientes de apiarios experimentales de investigación, ubicados en la región del Bajo Cauca antioqueño, sobre dos hongos filamentosos, Botryodiplodia theobromae y Fusarium oxysporum y un hongo levaduriforme, Candida albicans . El propóleos fue recolectado por los métodos de malla y de raspado, durante diferentes periodos del año. Mediante la técnica de macrodilución en caldo, se evaluaron seis dosis de EEP, en un rango de156 a 5000μgmL -1 y se determinó la concentración que inhibió el 80 y el 50% del crecimiento del hongo. Los resultados indican que el método de recolección del propóleos presentó diferencias significativas con respecto al crecimiento de C. albicans y no para B. theobromae y F. oxysporum . Las CMI 80 estuvieron entre 1211 a 4050μgmL -1 , 1567 a 5016μgmL -1 y 1529 a 3568μgmL -1 para B. theobromae , F. oxysporum y C. albicans , respectivamente. En conclusión, los extractos evaluados exhibieron un actividad inhibitoria del crecimiento moderada, en comparación con el control y el hongo levaduriforme, C. albicans presentó la mayor sensibilidad frente a los EEP analizados. Adicionalmente, el método de recolección del propóleos solo presentó diferencias significativas respecto a la concentración mínima inhibitoria, encontrada para C. albicans .
Fabrication of lateral planar InP/GaInAsP heterojunction bipolar transistor by selective area epitaxial growth (1989)

We report the first demonstration of a lateral heterojunction bipolar transistor realised using selective area epitaxy to grow the emitter and collector structures. The transistor had a gain of 2 at a current density of 2 kA cm−2. The low current gain is directly attributable to the base width used in this novel structure and does not result from the regrown junctions which exhibited an ideality factor of 1.6.
Determinants of postoperative acute kidney injury (2009)

This study shows that age, emergency and high risk surgery, ischemic heart disease, congestive heart disease, ASA physical status and RCRI score were considered risk factors for the development of AKI, in patients needing intensive care after surgery. AKI has serious impact on PACU length of stay and mortality. AKI was an independent risk factor for hospital mortality.
Application theory of scattering and coupled mode analysis for liquid crystal diffractive grating (2010)

This work presents a detailed analysis of a liquid crystal (LC) phase diffraction grating based on a approach combining vector theory of scattering and coupled mode analysis. In general, the coupled mode analysis gives a solution for the diffracted field regardless of aperture and the polarization state of the incident light. However, the aperture of the incident light defines the angular selectivity of the diffraction grating as well as the distribution of the intensity of the diffractive maximums. The solution of the vector theory of scattering in combination with the coupled mode analysis for diffraction of the light beam with finite aperture has allowed one to optimize the parameters of the high efficiency diffractive LC grating. The analytic solutions here were verified with experimental results for a reverse-twisted LC grating and a comparison with the standard Gooch-Tarry's method, which typically applied for a twisted nematic LC display.
The Cif proteins from Wolbachia prophage WO modify sperm genome integrity to establish cytoplasmic incompatibility (2022)

Inherited microorganisms can selfishly manipulate host reproduction to drive through populations. In Drosophila melanogaster, germline expression of the native Wolbachia prophage WO proteins CifA and CifB cause cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) in which embryos from infected males and uninfected females suffer catastrophic mitotic defects and lethality; however, in infected females, CifA expression rescues the embryonic lethality and thus imparts a fitness advantage to the maternally transmitted Wolbachia. Despite widespread relevance to sex determination, evolution, and vector control, the mechanisms underlying when and how CI impairs male reproduction remain unknown and a topic of debate. Here, we use cytochemical, microscopic, and transgenic assays in D. melanogaster to demonstrate that CifA and CifB proteins of wMel localize to nuclear DNA throughout the process of spermatogenesis. Cif proteins cause abnormal histone retention in elongating spermatids and protamine deficiency in mature sperms that travel to the female reproductive tract with Cif proteins. Notably, protamine gene knockouts enhance wild-type CI. In ovaries, CifA localizes to germ cell nuclei and cytoplasm of early-stage egg chambers; however, Cifs are absent in late-stage oocytes and subsequently in fertilized embryos. Finally, CI and rescue are contingent upon a newly annotated CifA bipartite nuclear localization sequence. Together, our results strongly support the Host modification model of CI in which Cifs initially modify the paternal and maternal gametes to bestow CI-defining embryonic lethality and rescue.
