An overview of the VMTP transport protocol (2003)

Communication in modern distributed systems demands low-latency transaction-oriented communication rather than stream-oriented communication as in the past. The performance and functionality of current standard transport protocols has become a major limitation in the move to higher-speed networks and larger-scale, more sophisticated distributed systems. An overview is presented of the versatile message transaction protocol (VMTP) developed to address these limitations. The authors then present measurements of VMTP performance in actual use in the V distributed system, showing that its performance matches their objectives.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
Event dissemination in mobile wireless sensor networks (2005)

Sensor networks are composed of a large number of densely deployed sensors/actuators. Routing protocols are faced with the challenge of delivering data to sinks through multihop routes, in the presence of energy constrained sensor nodes. We present an energy-aware event dissemination protocol for mobile wireless sensor networks. In our proposed model each sink pro-actively constructs a redundant tree in the network to provide reliable delivery of events in the face of dynamic changes and mobility. Scalability is achieved by minimizing the number of participating nodes on the tree, while maintaining high coverage.

Combined decrease of sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and total oxygen in only one secondary steelmaking operation (1992)

The development of a matured metallurgical process allows the reduction of the sulphur, nitrogen, hydrogen and total oxygen content to the lowest values in only one secondary metallurgical step during treatment in a ladle tank degassing unit. By careful adjustment of a lime‐saturated ladle top slag at the beginning of the vacuum treatment, it is possible to obtain a desulphurization degree of more than 95%. The process of nitrogen removal by a stirring gas can be described with a dynamic model in excellent agreement with plant trials. The nitrogen content after vacuum treatment depends mainly on the nitrogen content before vacuum, the stirring gas quantity and the sulphur content. The achievable hydrogen contents mainly depend on the stirring gas quantity and dehydrogenisation can be described by the same model used for denitrogenisation. By a cleanliness stirring after the vacuum treatment under a nearly SiO 2 ‐free‐, lime‐alumina slag, saturated with lime, the total‐oxygen content can be lowered to less than 20 ppm.
Maintenance Energy Requirements in Modern Broilers Fed Exogenous Enzymes (2022)

Objective: The objective of this study was to determine if exogenous enzymes reduce the metabolizable energy requirements for maintenance in broilers. Materials and Methods: Two feeds were tested, a negative control and negative control plus enzyme composite. The composite was a proprietary blend of glucanase+xylanase +cellulase+arabinofuranosidase+protease+phytase. Feed allowances were 30-100% of the ad libitum feed intake from 16-27 days. The retained energy in the carcass was evaluated as protein gain, g5.45 kcal gG 1 +fat gain8.95 kcal gG 1 . A linear regression of Y = Retention energy kcal/kg 0.70 was regressed by X = Metabolizable energy intake kcal/kg 0.70 where the metabolizable energy intake at zero carcass retention energy was the metabolizable energy of maintenance. Results: Body weight gain was +6.39 g dayG 1 with the enzyme treatment at ad libitum intake. The metabolizable energy for maintenance was 1684.2 kcal/kg 0.70 (R 2 = 0.98) for the enzyme treatment and 1604.5 kcal/kg 0.70 (R 2 = 0.98) for the control (p<0.01). The efficiency of energy utilization for maintenance and tissue gain was improved by 4 and 3%, respectively with the enzymes. The enzyme had -7.6 kcal/kg 0.70 metabolizable energy of maintenance which represents 4.5% lower (p<0.01) than the control.

Data Schema Integration in Web-Enabled Systems (2011)

In the recent years, most enterprises have started to experience the use of the Web for work cooperation to improve efficiency and information interchange. As a consequence, enterprise information systems are being migrated onto the web, and methods and tools to effectively access data provided on the web in different formats from the autonomous heterogeneous data sources are required. In particular, integration tools are required to obtain a uniform data representation by abstracting from the formats in the origin data sources and thus to build a global information space suitable for query and access interface. The chapter will be devoted to discuss the characteristics of data schema integration in web-enabled, and to describe a comprehensive integration scheme for organizing heterogeneous information sources over the web, to enhance the capability of information interchange and interoperation among web-enabled systems.Request access from your librarian to read this chapter's full text.

Benefits of photonic structuring on perovskite solar cells using opal-like layers (2020)

Perovskite solar cells have been under the spotlight of the photovoltaics community. However, little is known on the impact of structuring the active material using photonic crystal layers. We present here numerical simulations showing the effect of photonic crystal structuring on the integrated quantum efficiency of perovskite solar cells. The photo-active layer is structured using opal-like perovskite layers made of perovskite (full or truncated) spheres, including hybrid uniform/structured layers, embedded in a TiO<sub>2</sub> matrix. The excitation of quasi-guided modes inside the absorbing spheres increases the integrated quantum efficiency and the photonic enhancement factor. A genetic algorithm approach allows us to determine the optimum structure among more than 1.4 10^9 potential combinations. These numerical results of the benefits of photonic structuring on perovskite solar cells are also compared to experimental studies on selected configurations of perovskite solar cells.
A new two level hierarchy structuring for node partitioning in ad hoc networks (2010)

A big challenge in designing a distributed application is the partitioning which consists of optimizing the system component inter-communication. In this paper we introduce a new approach of Ad Hoc network group formation based on two level hierarchy structure: many groups with one leader per group at the first level and a super-leader for the whole network at the second one. We worked on the minimization of the communication between nodes by the choice of decent metrics in group formation as well as in leader and super-leader elections. Moreover the designed algorithm is validated by simulation results and then verified by model checking. In addition, a re-organization strategy and the principle of communication protocols will be presented.
Universal MRSA Nasal Surveillance: Characterization of Outcomes at a Tertiary Care Center and Implications for Infection Control (2010)

Our study showed a positive correlation between having a nasal screen positivity and subsequent development of infection. Isolation of MRSA screen positive patients alone as an intervention did not reduce the surgical site infection rates. Since most of our isolates are CA-MRSA, our institution is implementing several new interventions to further reduce the incidence of HA-MRSA conditions.

Chemistry of Theaflavins: The Astringent Taste Compounds of Black Tea (2003)

Tea is one of the most popular beverages consumed worldwide. Freshly harvested tea leaves require processing to convert them into green, oolong and black teas. An estimated 2.5 million metric tons of dried tea are manufactured annually. Here, we review the chemistry of theaflavins, the astringent taste compounds in black tea. In the course of studies on the oxidation mechanism of tea polyphenols, a new type tea pigment, theadibenzotropolone A, together with theaflavin 3-gallate were formed by the reaction of (-)-epicatechin (EC) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) with horseradish peroxidase in the presence of H2O2. The structure of theadibenzotropolone A was elucidated on the basis of MS and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses. A compound containing two types of benzotropolone links is of great interest, since it shows that the galloyl ester group of theaflavin monogallate participates in further oxidative condensation reactions. This may provide an additional reaction pathway for the formation of thearubigins. The existence of this compound in black tea was characterized by LC/ESI-MS/MS.
Peripheral Literatures and the History of Capitalism: An Introduction (2022)

The introduction argues for rethinking the problem of historical transition under capitalism from the vantage point of peripheral literatures. The understanding of the relationships between such transition and literary form, and the periodizing schemas employed to make sense of them, has largely been limited to heartlands of accumulation in Western Europe and North America. Much less has been written about how literatures from the rest of the world have expressed transitions to and within this global, if internally variegated and uneven, system. This introduction asks how literature from the world's peripheries and semiperipheries have written the history of capitalism.

Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption: Rationale, Technical Development and Early Clinical Experience (2003)

The adjuvant treatment of sepsis remains a major therapeutic challenge. Blood purification is theoretically appealing if the humoral theory of sepsis is accepted as the basis for intervention. In this setting, blood purification would provide a broad-based restoration of humoral homeostasis thereby avoiding both excessive inflammation and counterinflammation. Several techniques of blood purification have been tried or are under active investigation. One of these is the so-called coupled plasma filtration adsorption (CPFA). CPFA is a novel extracorporeal blood purification therapy aimed at nonselectively reducing the circulating levels and activities of both pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators during sepsis and multiorgan failure. In vitro studies have shown CPFA to be effective in binding a broad range of such mediators proving its technical efficacy. Subsequent animal models have shown a beneficial effect on survival in endotoxemia. These studies have provided the necessary technical developments and biologic rationale for initial human studies. Two phase I/IIa clinical studies have now been performed. Both studies have shown that CPFA improves blood pressure and restores immune function in patients with severe sepsis and multiorgan dysfunction. In this article, we will discuss some of the basic principles involved in sorbent technology, and how these may contribute to treatment efficacy, review animal experiments with CPFA and finally discuss the results of recent human studies and their implications.

Curcumin induces cell death of the main molecular myeloma subtypes, particularly the poor prognosis subgroups (2014)

Multiple myeloma (MM), a plasma cell malignancy, remains incurable despite the development of new therapies. Curcumin anti-tumor effects were previously characterized in multiple myeloma, however only few MM cell lines were included in these studies. Since myeloma is a heterogeneous disease it is important to address the impact of myeloma molecular heterogeneity in curcumin cell death induction. In the present study, a large panel of human myeloma cell lines (HMCLs) (n = 29), representing the main molecular MM subgroups, was screened for curcumin sensitivity. We observed that curcumin cell death induction was heterogeneous, of note 16 HMCLs were highly sensitive to curcumin (LD50 < 20.5 μM), 6 HMCLs exhibited intermediate LD50 values (20.5 μM ≤ LD50 < 32.2 μM) and only 7 HMCLs were weakly sensitive (35 < LD50 < 56 μM). Cell lines harboring the t(11;14) translocation were less sensitive (median LD50 32.9 μM) than non-t(11;14) (median LD50 17.9 μM), which included poor prognosis t(4;14) and t(14;16) cells. Interestingly, curcumin sensitivity was not dependent on TP53 status. For the first time we showed that primary myeloma cells were also sensitive, even those displaying del(17p), another poor prognosis factor. We also unravel the contribution of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family molecules in curcumin response. We found that down-regulation of Mcl-1, an essential MM survival factor, was associated with curcumin-induced cell death and its knockdown sensitized myeloma cells to curcumin, highlighting Mcl-1 as an important target for curcumin-induced apoptosis. Altogether, these results support clinical trials including curcumin in association with standard therapy.
Acceptability of Patients with Brain Metastases for Clinical Trials of Chemotherapy for Metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (1996)

This study was conducted to determine whether patients with brain metastases from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) should be included in clinical trials of chemotherapy. Patients with metastatic NSCLC and good performance status were studied. The survival of patients with brain metastases was compared with that of patients without brain metastases. Of 100 eligible patients, 22 had brain metastases at diagnosis. The median survival time was poorer in patients with brain metastases than in other patients with metastatic NSCLC (96.5 vs. 181.5 days). However, the difference in survival was not significant on univariate analysis (p = 0.106). Multivariate analysis confirmed that the prognostic value of brain metastases was limited in this sample (p = 0.129). There was little difference in survival curves during the first 8 weeks. Patients with brain metastases who have good performance status and minimal neurologic symptoms can be observed for approximately 8 weeks in clinical trials to determine their response to chemotherapy. However, it is doubtful that patients with brain metastases would be eligible for phase III trials, in which survival is an endpoint.
High efficiency W-band HBV Tripler and Device Reliability Studies (2006)

We report on the design and MBE-growth of heterostructure barrier varactor (HBV) diode materials. The quality and performance of in-house HBV materials are presented. Furthermore, temperature operating life tests of the HBV diodes indicate a maximum operating temperature of 180°C before onset of severe degradation. Finally, a state-of-the-art tripler efficiency of 21% for a W-band tripler has been demonstrated using planar 2x2-barrier HBV diodes (Chalmers MBE766).
IDS/IPS and Snort/Suricata Rule Writing (2020)

You pick up almost any software, and it communicates over the network for one reason or the other. Even something like software updates happens over the network and is a form of network communication. The same applies to malware, as we have covered in Chapter 9. The use of network communication for malicious activity extends to a timeline that precedes command-and-control (CnC) communication by the malware. Even before the malware file is delivered to the victim, you might have an exploit delivered to the victim, multiple malicious exchanges before the final malware payload file is transferred over the network. Similarly, you can also have emails carrying malicious attachments. All use the network for its communication.
Aerosol silica as a possible candidate for the heterogeneous formation of nitric acid hydrates in the stratosphere (1999)

The liquid‐solid phase transitions in nanometersize HNO 3 /H 2 O solution droplets obtained on fumed silica (a counterpart of aerosol silica) have been studied with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). “Soft” transitions, reduction in the freezing and melting temperatures, T f and T m , and enthalpies, Δ H f and Δ H m , are interpreted to be caused by very small size of droplets. The observed difference between Δ H f and Δ H m can serve as an evidence of temperature dependence of the enthalpy of fusion for hydrates. Freezing of droplets with stoichiometry close to nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) at temperature 4 K warmer than the ice frost point indicates that, in the stratosphere, silica particles can serve as nuclei for heterogeneous freezing of NAT.

On Dimensionality for Sparse Multipath (2006)

We give a 2WT style result for the degrees of freedom of multipath signals that pass through spatially limited (sparse) scattering environments. The dimensionality scales with the circumference of the scattering region, and the total communications path length. We provide a direct comparison to the time-frequency case, where space replaces time. This is a rigorous wavefield examination of previous heuristic geometric arguments.
Study on immune efficacy induced by killed Vibrio anguillarum vaccine on Flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) (2004)

In the study of efficacy of vaccines on Flounder, Paralich thys olivaceus, vaccine preparations were made of formalin-killed V.anguill arum. Fish were vaccinated by intraperitoneal injection. After fifty days sinc e the primary vaccination, the vaccinated fish received a second vaccination by same route. Following the vaccination, the efficacy of vaccine preparations on f ish was studied in the laboratory by monitoring specific antibody production (EL ISA) and doing challege tests. The results indicated that the antibody levels i ncreased in the vaccinated groups and the maximal titers came to 1∶512, 1∶2 04 8, 1∶1 024, respectively. By challenging with V.anguillarum, the Relative P ercentage Survival (RPS) values of the vaccinated fish groups were 81.25%, 87.50 % and 93.75%, respectively. And by challenging with V. parahaemolyticus, the RPS values were 46.15%, 53.85%, 53.85%, respectively. The experiment showed the immune system of P. olivaceus responded well and vaccinations gave good pro tection results.
Integrin α7: a major driver and therapeutic target for glioblastoma malignancy (2017)

Glioblastomas, or glioblastoma multiforme tumors (GBM), are aggressive high-grade malignant gliomas. They are the most frequent brain tumors in adults, corresponding to 12% to 15% of all intracranial tumors and 50% to 60% of astrocytic tumors (1). GBM are heterogeneous tumors caused by mutations in epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR ), isocitrate dehydrogenase ( IDH ) and platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha ( PDGFRA ) genes (1). Recent reports support the notion that GBM growth is mediated by stem cells [GBM stem cells (GSCs)] (2-4) that express neural stem cell markers (2) and can differentiate into pericytes and endothelial cells to support tumor vascularization (3,4). Different markers have been described for specific GSC sub-populations (2-4), but no common stem cell marker has been defined yet. Identification of GSC stem cell markers is critical for the development of new therapeutic targets for GBM.
A simple and reliable predictor for an adequate laryngeal view with rigid endoscopic laryngoscopy (2005)

The level of the tongue base correlated well with the adequacy of laryngeal view obtained from a 70-degree rigid endoscope. This can be used to predict the success of obtaining adequate views during rigid laryngoscopy.
