On Computing the Canonical Features of Software Systems (2006)

Software applications typically have many features that vary in their similarity. We define a measurement of similarity between pairs of features based on their underlying implementations and use this measurement to compute a set of canonical features. The canonical features set (CFS) consists of a small number of features that are as dissimilar as possible to each other, yet are most representative of the features that are not in the CFS. The members of the CFS are distinguishing features and understanding their implementation provides the engineer with an overview of the system undergoing scrutiny. The members of the CFS can also be used as cluster centroids to partition the entire set of features. Partitioning the set of features can simplify the understanding of large and complex software systems. Additionally, when a specific feature must undergo maintenance, it is helpful to know which features are most closely related to it. We demonstrate the utility of our method through the analysis of the Jext, Firefox, and Gaim software systems
Three Years' Experience With the Offshore Self-Boring Pressuremeter "PAM" (1984)

Abstract The Offshore Self-Boring Pressuremeter (PAM) has been developed by the Institut Francais du Petrole for geotechnical investigations in water depths up to 1000 meters. The PAM was first presented at the 1981 OTC. It mainly consists of a seabed frame from which a self-boring pressuremeter probe is operated. To date, the PAr1 has totaled nearly 450 meters of borehole depth and more than 200 pressuremeter tests. Investigations have been performed in a wide variety of soil types. The latest deepwater campaign was carried out successfully in the mediterranean at a water depth of 625 meters. Extensive geotechnical information is obtained from a PAM boring operation. The use of the pressuremeter method for offshore investigations and foundation designing should open up very interesting prospects. Introduction The Offshore Self-Boring Pressuremeter (called PAM from the French term "Pressio-metre Autoforeur Marin") has been developed by the Institut Francais du Petrole for geotechnical investigations in water depths up to 1000 meters. Offshore investigations make use of various surveying techniques. The most widely used are drilling and sampling methods. Due to inherent imperfections in the sampling process, increased interest is being shown in in-situ testing. In this area, the pressuremeter test is probab1y the most versatile in-situ means for investigating the stress-strain behavior of soil under static or cyclic loading. The self-boring technique has the advantage of combining boring operations with the insertion of a test probe, and in particular it entails virtually no disturbances in the borehole. The PAM is now available for practical offshore use. A number of investigations have been carried out successfully in various types of soils, under water depth ranging up to 625 meters. 1. Description of the PAM Device The PAM (offshore self-boring pressuremeter) consists principally of a seabed frame from which a measuring probe is made to penetrate into the seabed. An initial detailed description of the device was given at the 1981 Offshore Technology Conference (1) and has been further developed in various other publications (2) (3) (4) (5). Thus, only a brief review of the different parts of the PAM will be given here. 1.1. The PAM probe The PAM measuring probe is 6 m (20 ft) long and has a nominal diameter of 160 mm (0.63 in). It has been derived from the PAF-76 probe developed in France by the Laboratoires des Ponts et Chaussees for onshore soil investigations (6). Figure 1 shows the different parts of the PAM probe, including the self-boring module, the pressuremeter module and the driving module. The self-boring module makes the PAM penetrate into the seabed soil without rotating. The soil is cut through by a cutting ring which is only 1% oversized with regard to the nominal diameter of the probe. The self-boring module contains the hydraulic motor and the mechanical grinder with toothed blades to break up the core of sediments.
Pharmacology of Cannabinoid Receptors (1995)

Two subtypes of cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2, have been described to date, although future investigations may elucidate other receptors. The actions of cannabimimetic agents via CB1 receptors in brain are mediated by GI/O to inhibit adenylate cyclase and Ca2+ channels. Little is known about signal transduction mechanisms utilized by CB2 receptors. Three classes of agonist ligands regulate cannabinoid receptors: cannabinoid, aminoalkyl-indole, and eicosanoid derivatives. Cannabinoid receptors produce analgesia and modify cognition, memory, locomotor activity, and endocrine functions in mammals.
[Cytokines in tuberculosis]. (1995)

The paper presents the data available in the literature and the authors' own findings concerning the production of cytokines, such as interleukins 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8, interferons and tumor necrosis factor, in patients with different stages of tuberculosis. A relationship between the production rate of some cytokines and the stage of the disease, the extent of the process, chemotherapeutical efficiency and other clinically important factors is discussed. The prospects of further investigations in this area are dealt with.
Self-Assembly of Quantum-Dot Molecules: Heterogeneous Nucleation of SiGe Islands on Si(100) (1998)

We report on the formation of clusters of self-assembled quantum dots (termed quantum-dot molecules). Each cluster, typically consisting of four closely spaced SiGe islands, is formed by preferential nucleation around the edges of square pits. Uniform-sized pits are directly formed by controlled deposition of Si and C on the initial Si(100) surface, followed by the growth of a thin Si buffer layer. Formation of ${105}$ pit walls as precursors to island formation and elastic relaxation effects near the pits appear to influence island nucleation. Quantum-dot molecules may have potential applications in nanoelectronic devices and may exhibit novel electronic and optical properties.
Marriage and parenthood among childhood cancer survivors: a report from the Italian AIEOP Off-Therapy Registry (2011)

Childhood cancer survivors are less likely to marry and to have children than the general population, confirming the life-long impact of their previous disease on their social behavior and choices. The inclusion of counseling in the strategies of management and long-term surveillance of childhood cancer patients could be beneficial to survivors as they approach adulthood.
Programmable hardware implementation for the median-rational hybrid filters (2003)

Thee Median-Rational Hybrid Filter (MRHF) has been recently introduced as a new class of nonlinear filters and successfully applied to image filtering problems. The main characteristics of the MRHF are the good noise attenuation property in smooth areas and the preservation of edges end details. In fact, in changing areas the noise attenuation is traded for a good response to the change. Moreover, the median filters effectively remove the impulsive noise while the rational filter performs well in relatively high SNR Gaussian contaminated environments. Another relevant characteristic is that MRHF's usually act on small windows and thus require a reduced number of operations, resulting in simple and fast filtering structures. In this paper we present a programmable hardware implementation for the MRHF's. Exploiting the features of the dynamic logic families it is possible to achieve high speed and compactness, while keeping the power dissipation very low.

„Die Theorie bestimmt, was wir beobachten können“ – Sozialarbeitswissenschaftliche Perspektiven auf Integrationsprozesse in heterogenen Gesellschaften (2009)

„Die Theorie bestimmt, was wir beobachten können“ (Einstein, zit. n. Watzlawick 2003: 65). Dass die Theorie der Sozialen Arbeit und die damit verbundene Sozialarbeitswissenschaft auch für den „sozialpädagogischen Blick“ (vgl. Rauschenbach e.a. 1993) bestimmend ist, soll in diesem Beitrag diskutiert werden. Dies wird am Beispiel von Integrationsprozessen in heterogenen Gesellschaften dargestellt. Von Beginn an ist Soziale Arbeit/Sozialpädagogik ausgerichtet auf die Befähigung der AdressatInnen, soziale Ausgegrenztheit zu überwinden und sich soweit in die sozialen Systeme der betreffenden Gesellschaft zu integrieren, um handlungsfähig zu sein. Der Integrationsbegriff kann also insgesamt auf Problematiken des Hineinfindens vom „Rand“ in die „Mitte“ der Gesellschaft angewendet werden. Eine inhaltliche Klammer bildet das Thema Migration als Ursache von Marginalisierung und die daraus folgenden Integrationsprozesse in multikulturellen Gesellschaften (Kapitel 1, 4 und 5).
iEnhancer-ECNN: identifying enhancers and their strength using ensembles of convolutional neural networks (2019)

Abstract Background Enhancers are non-coding DNA fragments which are crucial in gene regulation (e.g. transcription and translation). Having high locational variation and free scattering in 98% of non-encoding genomes, enhancer identification is, therefore, more complicated than other genetic factors. To address this biological issue, several in silico studies have been done to identify and classify enhancer sequences among a myriad of DNA sequences using computational advances. Although recent studies have come up with improved performance, shortfalls in these learning models still remain. To overcome limitations of existing learning models, we introduce iEnhancer-ECNN, an efficient prediction framework using one-hot encoding and k -mers for data transformation and ensembles of convolutional neural networks for model construction, to identify enhancers and classify their strength. The benchmark dataset from Liu et al.’s study was used to develop and evaluate the ensemble models. A comparative analysis between iEnhancer-ECNN and existing state-of-the-art methods was done to fairly assess the model performance. Results Our experimental results demonstrates that iEnhancer-ECNN has better performance compared to other state-of-the-art methods using the same dataset. The accuracy of the ensemble model for enhancer identification (layer 1) and enhancer classification (layer 2) are 0.769 and 0.678, respectively. Compared to other related studies, improvements in the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC), sensitivity, and Matthews’s correlation coefficient (MCC) of our models are remarkable, especially for the model of layer 2 with about 11.0%, 46.5%, and 65.0%, respectively. Conclusions iEnhancer-ECNN outperforms other previously proposed methods with significant improvement in most of the evaluation metrics. Strong growths in the MCC of both layers are highly meaningful in assuring the stability of our models.
Electronic Structure of Silicon Nanocrystals Passivated with Nitrogen and Chlorine (2010)

The electronic structure of small (∼1 nm) silicon nanocrystals passivated with nitrogen and chlorine is explored using density funcional theory calculations. The HOMO−LUMO gap of 3.2 and 3.3 eV, calculated for the fully nitrogen [Si35(NH2)36] and chlorine passivated (Si35Cl36) nanocrystals, respectively, correlate quite well with experimental observations describing the blue and/or white photoluminescence and electroluminescence of silicon nanocrystals, embedded in chlorinated silicon nitride films. On the other hand, the ionization energy and the electron affinity allow us to study the electron transfer properties of these systems. The charge-transfer capacity of these nanocrystals is modified in opposite directions with respect to hydrogen-passivated nanocrystals, becoming good electron acceptors with Cl passivation and good electron donors with NH2 passivation.
Fifty Percent Nitrous Oxide Does Not Increase the Risk of Venous Air Embolism in Neurosurgical Patients Operated upon in the Sitting Position (1992)

Although nitrous oxide (N2O) should theoretically increase the severity of venous air embolism (VAE), data confirming this hazard in clinical situations are not available. The effect of 50% N2O on the incidence and severity of VAE and on the emergence time from anesthesia was evaluated in 300 neurosurgical patients operated upon while in the sitting position. Of these, 110 patients underwent craniectomy for posterior fossa pathology and 190 patients underwent cervical spine surgery (CSS). Patients were randomized to receive either 50% N2O in oxygen (O2) (N2O group) or O2 (no-N2O group) as part of an isoflurane-fentanyl-based anesthetic. In patients in the N2O group, N2O administration was discontinued immediately upon Doppler-detection of VAE and was reinstituted in not less than 30 min after resolution of the episode. The incidence of Doppler-detected VAE was significantly greater in the craniectomy group than the CSS group (43% vs. 7%, respectively; P less than 0.001). N2O had no effect on the incidence of VAE or the severity of VAE as judged by the magnitude of the reduction in blood pressure during hemodynamically significant episodes of VAE, the volume of gas aspirated from the right atrial catheter during episodes of VAE, or the magnitude of the decrease in end-tidal carbon dioxide tension during episodes of VAE. Hemodynamically significant episodes of VAE (i.e., episodes associated with a reduction in systolic blood pressure of greater than or equal to 15 mmHg) occurred in 17 of the 61 patients experiencing VAE (28%) and was not different between the N2O and no-N2O groups. Similarly, hemodynamically significant episodes of VAE (n = 18) accounted for 15% of all episodes of VAE (n = 118) and was not different between the N2O and no-N2O groups. Emergence time was not significantly different between the N2O and no-N2O groups, with mean times of 2 +/- 6 and 3 +/- 7 min (+/- SD), respectively. Emergence time was significantly longer in the craniectomy group than in the CSS group (5 vs. 1 min, respectively; P less than 0.001). Within the craniectomy group, the incidence of Doppler-detected VAE was significantly less in patients with previous surgery at the operative site (21%) compared to patients without previous surgery at the operative site (47%). Postoperatively, no complications could be related to the use of N2O or directly attributed to the occurrence of VAE.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
The Active Site of Bovine Plasminogen Activator (1968)

Abstract Bovine plasminogen activator preparations were isolated at 0° and 25° from a mixture of streptokinase and human plasminogen. The degree of incorporation and inhibition with radioactive 32P-labeled diisopropyl phosphofluoridate (DFP) demonstrated a definite difference between these two preparations. Incorporation of approximately 1 mole of DFP-32P per mole of bovine plasminogen activator prepared at 25° and per mole of human plasmin indicated that bovine plasminogen activator and human plasmin each contains a single active site which may be identical. Incorporation of 0.50 mole of DFP-32P per mole of bovine plasminogen activator prepared at 0° and its retention of partial activity indicated that this activator preparation was partly a human plasminogen-streptokinase complex. Acid treatment of this preparation and inhibition studies with e-aminocaproic acid also indicated that this preparation contains a plasminogen-streptokinase complex. Complex formation also occurred when streptokinase was allowed to react with DFP-32P-treated human plasminogen and plasmin. Starch gel electrophoretic analyses indicated that all the complexes formed under these conditions possessed the same mobility. Dissociation of the 25° activator complex inhibited with DFP-32P after its isolation revealed that the radioactivity was located in the plasmin moiety of the activator complex.

Chemical Studies on Drug Metabolism II. N‐Demethylation and N‐Oxidation of Some Alicyclic Amines by Ruthenium Tetroxide (1984)

Abstract Oxidation with ruthenium tetroxide of alicyclic N ‐methylamines such as pempidine (1a) , 9‐methyl‐9‐azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (2a) , and 8‐methyl‐8‐azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (3a) , in which carbon atoms linked to nitrogen are sterically hindered, leads to the N ‐formyl and N ‐demethylated derivatives. The latter, when further oxidized, give the N ‐oxides in good yields.

Minimizing total tardiness on a single machine with sequence-dependent setup times (2005)

In this paper, we study the single machine scheduling problem with setup times for minimizing total tardiness. Such a problem is NP-hard and presents many difficulties to be solved. To reduce these difficulties, we propose a branch and bound algorithm. Our method is based on a new lower bound and is compared with Ragatz lower bound. New dominance rule and original exploration strategy are also proposed. Preliminary numerical simulations are encouraging and promising.
Basicity of Some Phosphines in THF (2005)

The reaction of several phosphines with an acidic indicator gives both ion pairs and free ions. The value obtained for the pKa of tribenzylphosphine is shown to be reasonable by MO computations. An important limitation is demonstrated for the Fuoss equation of dissociation of ion pairs.
Immunocytochemistry on sputum samples predicts prognosis of lung cancer (2019)

This is the first report of immunocytochemistry of a panel of markers on cells exfoliated in sputum samples which suggests that analysis of immunocytochemical markers in sputum samples can be attempted as a cost-effective and reliable predictor of prognosis and survival. Accumulation of mutated p53, overexpression of galectin-3, and lower expression of p16 and EGFR proteins were found to predict poor prognosis for lung cancer.

Body Temperature Is Associated With Cognitive Performance in Older Adults With and Without Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Cross-sectional Analysis (2021)

Wearable devices for remote and continuous health monitoring in older populations frequently include sensors for body temperature measurements (i.e., skin and core body temperatures). Healthy aging is associated with core body temperatures that are in the lower range of age-related normal values (36.3 ± 0.6°C, oral temperature), while patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) exhibit core body temperatures above normal values (up to 0.2°C). However, the relation of body temperature measures with neurocognitive health in older adults remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the association of body temperature with cognitive performance in older adults with and without mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Eighty community-dwelling older adults (≥65 years) participated, of which 54 participants were cognitively healthy and 26 participants met the criteria for MCI. Skin temperatures at the rib cage and the scapula were measured in the laboratory (single-point measurement) and neuropsychological tests were conducted to assess general cognitive performance, episodic memory, verbal fluency, executive function, and processing speed. In a subgroup (<i>n</i> = 15, nine healthy, six MCI), skin and core body temperatures were measured continuously during 12 h of habitual daily activities (long-term measurement). Spearman's partial correlation analyses, controlled for age, revealed that lower median body temperature and higher peak-to-peak body temperature amplitude was associated with better general cognitive performance and with better performance in specific domains of cognition; [e.g., rib median skin temperature (single-point) vs. processing speed: <i>r<sub>s</sub></i> = 0.33, <i>p</i> = 0.002; rib median skin temperature (long-term) vs. executive function: <i>r<sub>s</sub></i> = 0.56, <i>p</i> = 0.023; and peak-to-peak core body temperature amplitude (long-term) vs. episodic memory: <i>r<sub>s</sub></i> = 0.51, <i>p</i> = 0.032]. Additionally, cognitively healthy older adults showed lower median body temperature and higher peak-to-peak body temperature amplitude compared to older adults with MCI (e.g., rib median skin temperature, single-point: <i>p</i> = 0.035, <i>r</i> = 0.20). We conclude that both skin and core body temperature measures are potential early biomarkers of cognitive decline and preclinical symptoms of MCI/AD. It may therefore be promising to integrate body temperature measures into multi-parameter systems for the remote and continuous monitoring of neurocognitive health in older adults.
