A Context-aware Recommender System for Web Service Composition (2012)

This study explored the use of context-aware recommender system to facilitate web service composition. The needs for composition of existing web services to generate functionality for users are increasing. And an intelligent framework is needed to alleviate users' burden to discover, select, invoke and combine web services. In this study, we focus on using context-aware recommender system to provide users with the most appropriate web services composition. The concept of context-aware collaborative filtering is used here to learn and predict user preferences, and based on this information, to compose necessary web services to achieve user request. We provide a restaurant recommender system prototype for the restaurant search scenario to demonstrate how proposed architecture works.
Identification of a Halogenase Involved in the Biosynthesis of Ochratoxin A in Aspergillus carbonarius (2016)

Ochratoxin A is a potent mycotoxin classified as a possible carcinogen for humans, and Aspergillus carbonarius is the main agent responsible for OTA accumulation in grapes. We demonstrate here that a flavin-halogenase is implicated in the biosynthesis of OTA in A. carbonarius The encoding gene, AcOTAhal, is contiguous to biosynthetic genes that we have already described (nrps and pks), resulting as part of the biosynthetic cluster. The encoded protein is responsible of the introduction of chlorine atom in the final molecular structure and acts at the last step in the pathway. This study can be considered a continuation of an earlier study wherein we started to clarify the molecular basis of OTA biosynthesis in A. carbonarius, which has not been completely elucidated until now. This research represents an important step forward to a better understanding of the production mechanism, which will contribute to the development of improved control strategies to reduce the risk of OTA contamination in food products.

Minireview: Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein as an Intracrine Factor—Trafficking Mechanisms and Functional Consequences (2003)

PTH-related protein (PTHrP) was originally discovered as the factor responsible for humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. PTHrP is produced by most cell types and is a prohormone that gives rise to a family of mature secretory forms arising from posttranslational endoproteolytic cleavage of the initial translation product. Each of these secretory forms of PTHrP is believed to have one or more of its own receptors on the cell surface that mediates the normal paracrine, autocrine, and endocrine actions of PTHrP. Recently, evidence has accumulated that indicates that PTHrP is also able to enter the nucleus and/or the nucleolus and influence cellular events in an intracrine fashion. This review discusses the mechanisms by which PTHrP may gain access to the nucleus/nucleolus and the functional consequences of this nuclear entry by PTHrP.
TRANSMISSION OF PORCINE ENDOGENOUS RETROVIRUSES IN SEVERE COMBINED IMMUNODEFICIENT MICE XENOTRANSPLANTED WITH FETAL PORCINE PANCREATIC CELLS1 (2000)

The PERV+/COII- results from M4-liver and M19-spleen indicated the presence of PERV transmission from pig to mouse tissue. The PERV variants detected in the mouse tissues indicated that different PERVs were transmissible from the pig to mouse tissue during xenotransplantation. The negative reverse transcriptase-PCR results for PERV from three mouse samples including M4-liver and M19-spleen suggest there was no active PERV transcription in the mouse tissues, although this would need to be studied further.
<title>Temperature-Invariant And Other Narrow-Band IR Filters Containing PbTe, 4-20μm</title> (1980)

PbTe is unique amongst coating materials because of its negative temperature coefficient of refractive index. In combination with a conventional II-VII) material it can confer immunity to temperature variation from at least -23oC to +110oC for a narrowband filter. It also has an absolutely large refractive index so that filters are attainable with minimal degradation when tilted, and a minimum number of layers overall particularly towards 20 µm. Excellent transmission can be obtained.© (1980) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering. Downloading of the abstract is permitted for personal use only.
The revision of psychoanalysis (1993)

In 1965 Erich Fromm became professor emeritus of psychoanalysis at the National Autonomous University of Mexico City. In the same year he finished his field research on the social character of the Mexican peasant village Chiconcuac. Released from his obligations at the university and free for a new project, he applied to various funding organizations for money to undertake a Systematic Work on Humanistic Psychoanalysis, which he had decided to write in the course of the next few years. It was conceived as a work of three to four volumes that would deal with the complete range of psychoanalytic theory and practice. He intended nothing less than a dialectic revision.
Electrical Conductivity of Fused Quartz (1957)

The electrical conductivities of two specimens of clear fused quartz were measured in vacuo in the temperature range of 600 to 1400°C. The method of potential probes was used to evaluate the platinum contacts and eliminate effects of high contact resistance. One specimen obeyed Ohm's law as evidenced by the linear dependence of the current on the potential between probes and the uniform potential distribution. This behavior established the specimen as an electronic conductor. The value of specific conductivity was ∼10−4 mho/cm over the interval from 1000 to 1400°C. Ohm's law was not found applicable for the other specimen, which displayed many dielectric anomalies and polarization effects such as polarization voltages, anomalous potential distributions, reverse currents, and current decays immediately after application of a voltage. The phenomena indicated the presence of space-charge polarization and here the conductivity appeared to be substantially ionic. Heat treatment of this specimen stabilized the electrical behavior and caused increased or decreased resistance, depending on voltage, polarity, and temperature of measurement. The heating was also found to produce partial crystallization. It is suspected that the marked contrasts in the behavior of the two specimens are due to differences in the impurity contents.
The Effect of Patient Positioning on Intraabdominal Pressure and Blood Loss in Spinal Surgery (2000)

Intraabdominal pressure (IAP) can influence blood loss during spinal surgery. We examined the relationship of IAP changes to blood loss with a rectal balloon pressure catheter. Forty patients were randomly assigned to narrow (Group 1) or wide (Group 2) pad support widths of the Wilson frame. IAP was measured when the patient was supine after the induction of anesthesia, prone on a gurney, prone on the Wilson frame before and after incision, and then, again supine after tracheal extubation. IAP in the prone position on the Wilson frame before incision (3.6 cm H2O) in Group 2 was significantly less than in Group 1 (8.8 cm H2O) (P < 0.05). Intraoperative blood loss per vertebra in Group 2 (190 ± 65 mL) was significantly less than in Group 1 (381 ± 236 mL) (P < 0.05). The correlation between blood loss and IAP in the prone position on the Wilson frame in Group 1 was significant (P = 0.0022). In conclusion, IAP and intraoperative blood loss were significantly less in the wide, than in the narrow, pad support width of the Wilson frame. Blood loss tended to increase with an increase in IAP in the narrow pad support width of the Wilson frame. Implications The relationship of intraabdominal pressure changes to blood loss were examined with a rectal balloon pressure catheter during spinal surgery. Blood loss tended to increase with an increase in intraabdominal pressure in the narrow pad support width of the Wilson frame.
Integration of remote sensing data and geographic information system technology for emergency managers and their applications at the Pacific Disaster Center (2002)

Craig LabenPaciﬁc Disaster Center590 Lipoa Parkway, Suite 259Kihei, Maui, Hawaii 96753E-mail: claben@pdc.orgAbstract. As new remote sensing data and geographic information sys-tem (GIS) technology becomes available, it is increasingly possible todevelop and provide effective products, services, and tools to the emer-gency management community. GIS technology has become increas-ingly affordable and provides the ability to capture, organize, manipulate,display, and analyze complex collections of geographic data and infor-mation. The Paciﬁc Disaster Center (PDC) has historically provided de-cision support products and services to local, state, federal, and regionalemergency managers in the Paciﬁc Region to assist in all four phases ofdisaster management: mitigation, preparation, response, and recovery.The PDC’s current mission includes the integration of scientiﬁc knowl-edge, remote sensing data and tools, modeling and simulation technol-ogy, weather analysis, digital and information technology, and systemsengineering processes in support of the disaster management commu-nity. Current activities and methods are presented in this paper.
Studying the Documentation Process in Digital Forensic Investigation Frameworks/ Models (2015)

With the proliferation of the digital crime around the world, there are numerous and diverse digital forensic investigation models for driving digital investigation processes.Now more than ever, it must be a criminal investigation to obtain digital evidence which wouldn't be admissible in court.Therefore, digital forensic investigation should be implemented successfully, and there are a number of significant steps that should be taken into account.Each step and phase produces documents that are essential in understanding how the investigation process is built.The aim of this paper is to study models/ frameworks for the digital forensic investigation over a time period of ten years and find out the degree and level of attention to the process of documentation.This paper also includes definitions and descriptions of the basic and core concepts that the frameworks/ models use.
Nonnegative Tensor Factorization for Directional Blind Audio Source Separation (2014)

We augment the nonnegative matrix factorization method for audio source separation with cues about directionality of sound propagation. This improves separation quality greatly and removes the need for training data, with only a twofold increase in run time. This is the first method which can exploit directional information from microphone arrays much smaller than the wavelength of sound, working both in simulation and in practice on millimeter-scale microphone arrays.
Economics of Recycling Thermosets (1992)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">The technology to recycle thermosets exists as reported in the bibliography. The purpose of this article is to explore the economics of recycling thermosetting sheet molding composite (SMC) wastes generated by the molding plants. The principles discussed here equally apply to other thermoset composites and, in general, to other plastics. A recycling model is presented that will accept waste SMC as input and delivers value-added end product for reuse as output. Recycling methods considered are briefly reviewed. A cost model is developed to illustrate the economics of various proposed recycling paths. SMC is assumed to be shredded at the molding sites and delivered to the “RECYCLING PLANT” (RP) in lieu of being shipped to a landfill site. A fee equal to landfill fees is charged for this service; a source of income for the RP. It is further assumed that the RP has various pieces of equipment to separate metals, grind, mill, recover fiber, pyrolyze and to reprocess the waste stream into reusable and value-added products.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">Operating variables were altered to determine the effects of tipping fees, re-sale value of the recycled materials and volume, among others. The model shows that as the tipping fees rise and higher value-added uses are found for the end products, the profitability of the operation improves. The model shows that, based on the assumptions made, the fiber recovery path is currently the most economically desirable, followed by fine milling and pyrolysis. However, fine milling and fiber recovery without pyrolysis do not offer a complete solution as uncured SMC cannot be directly processed by these methods. This will remain true until the value of pyrolysis end products and/or tipping fees increase, or pyrolysis costs can be decreased, or some combination of these movements makes pyrolysis economically viable. Furthermore, compliance with the Clean Air Act may make handling and disposal of these materials more stringent due to styrene emission.</div>
Isolation, Microinjection and Transfer of Mouse Blastocysts (2009)

Genetically modified mice by means of homologous recombination in embryonic stem (ES) cells are generated by injection of manipulated ES cells into recipient blastocysts. The injected blastocysts, following reintroduction into recipient foster mice, will produce chimeric mice in which the manipulated ES cells populate the germline and transmit the induced mutation to the offspring. Crossing of the chimeras’ offspring bearing the targeted mutation in heterozygosis will ultimately produce mice homozygous for the specific genetic mutation. Here we describe the steps and procedures required to generate the chimeric mice leading to the transfer of a genetic mutation to the mouse germline.
A single-cell translocation and secretion assay (TransSeA) (2018)

Understanding biological heterogeneity at the single cell level is required for advancing insights into the complexity of human physiology and diseases. While advances in technological and analytical methods have afforded unprecedented glimpses of this heterogeneity, the information captured to date largely represents one-time "snap" shots of single cell physiology. To address the limits of existing methods and to accelerate discoveries from single cell studies, we developed a single-cell translocation and secretion assay (TransSeA) that supports time lapse analysis, enables molecular cargo analysis of secretions such as extracellular vesicles (EVs) from single cells, allows massively parallel single cell transfer according to user-defined cell selection criteria, and supports tracking of phenotypes between parental and progeny cells derived from single cells. To demonstrate the unique capabilities and efficiencies of the assay, we present unprecedented single cell studies related to cell secretions, EV cargos and cell intrinsic properties. Although used as examples to demonstrate the feasibility and versatility of the technology, the studies already provided insights into key unanswered questions such as the microRNAs carried by EVs, the relationships between EV secretion rates and gene expressions, and the spontaneous, trans-generational phenotypic changes in EV secretion between parental and progeny cells.
On-chip antenna element and array design for short range millimeter-wave communications (2007)

Large amounts of worldwide unlicensed spectrum at 60 GHz is currently being considered for high speed wireless solutions.However, a number of challenges remain for this spectrum to be a viable solution for high volume consumer applications.In this dissertation we look more closely at requirements for indoor antenna connectivity with particular focus on the signal to noise ratio needed to overcome fading in multipath channels.A new analytical channel model, including multipath scattering, is proposed and adapted to determine antenna requirements.These requirements are then used to develop realistic signal to noise ratios for Silicon-based Radio Frequency (RF) front ends.This dissertation considers three candidate antennas that show promise for compact on-chip implementation.Given their small size and possible losses at millimeter wave frequencies, we also focus on antenna efficiency for practical metalizations on Silicon.Therefore, relevant material properties are examined to determine the most accurate parameters to be used in the computational models.It is concluded that arrays of the candidate antennas with spatial power combining must be employed, but are still small enough for on-chip realization.The proposed antenna array that meets performance requirements is as little as 7x7mm 2 , making it about 1/3 of the target maximum size of 25x25mm 2 , required to enable integration as part of a portable consumer devices.
MHC structure and function – antigen presentation. Part 1 (2015)

The setting for the occurrence of an immune response is that of the need to cope with a vast array of different antigens from both pathogenic and non-pathogenic sources. When the first barriers against infection and innate defense fail, adaptive immune response enters the stage for recognition of the antigens by means of extremely variable molecules, namely immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors. The latter recognize the antigen exposed on cell surfaces, in the form of peptides presented by the HLA molecule. The first part of this review details the central role played by these molecules, establishing the close connection existing between their structure and their antigen presenting function.
Modification of Soybean Plant Architecture by Genes for Stem Growth Habit and Maturity<sup>1</sup> (1981)

Soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] plant architecture can be modified by genes conditioning stem termination and timing of flowering and maturity. Nearisogenic lines of the soybean cultivars ‘Clark’ and ‘Harosoy,’ which possessed various genes for stem termination and maturity, were evaluated for agronomic performance and plant architectural features in furrow irrigation culture for 2 years. Genes delaying flowering and maturity significantly increased the number of main stem nodes, stem length, lodging, branches per plant, and seeds per plant, but reduced seed weight. Genes hastening flowering and maturity had the opposite effects. The gene for semldeterminate stem growth ( Dt 2 ) significantly reduced the number of main‐stem nodes and stem length, but the reduction in lodging was not significant. Differences in yield and other traits between semideterminate and indeterminate types were not significant. The gene for determinate stem growth ( dt 1 ) severely reduced the number of main‐stem nodes, substantially reducing stem length and lodging. There were significantly fewer 3‐seed pods in the dt 1 isolines, resulting in fewer seeds per plant. The lower seed yields of the dt 1 isolines were not significantly different, however, from their indeterminate counterparts. Delaying flowering in the determinate types lessened the severe stem length reduction caused by dt 1 , but lodging resistance was maintained. However, there was no advantage with respect to yield because delayed flowering resulted in a shorter reproductive period which tended to reduce seed weight. The number of pods borne on the main stem of nodes 15 cm or less from the soil surface was significantly greater in the determinate types than in indeterminate or semideterminate types, although delays in maturity tended to lessen this effect. As a consequence, harvest losses could be significant in determinate cultivars grown in furrow irrigation culture.
Community Detection Based on Structure and Content: A Content Propagation Perspective (2015)

With the recent advances in information networks, the problem of identifying group structure or communities has received a significant amount of attention. Most of the existing principles of community detection or clustering mainly focus on either the topological structure of a network or the node attributes separately, while both of the two aspects provide valuable information to characterize the nature of communities. In this paper we combine the topological structure of a network as well as the content information of nodes in the task of detecting communities in information networks. Specifically, we treat a network as a dynamic system and consider its community structure as a consequence of interactions among nodes. To model the interactions we introduce the principle of content propagation and integrate the aspects of structure and content in a network naturally. We further describe the interactions among nodes in two different ways, including a linear model to approximate influence propagation, and modeling the interactions directly with random walk. Based on interaction modeling, the nature of communities is described by analyzing the stable status of the dynamic system. Extensive experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed framework over the state of the art.
Simultaneous Determination of 4-Nonylphenol and Bisphenol A in Sewage Sludge (2002)

An analytical method has been developed for simultaneous extraction and determination of two estrogenic active agents, 4-nonylphenol (4-NP) and bisphenol A (BPA), in activated sewage sludge and anaerobically stabilized sewage sludge. Both compounds were determined by GC/MS in freeze-dried sewage sludge samples that had been spiked with these compounds in order to indicate different contamination levels. Extractive steam distillation, Soxhlet extraction, supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), and accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) were applied, and the results were compared. ASE under use of ethyl acetate/formic acid and an extraction temperature of 170 degrees C provided the most efficient extraction procedure for simultaneous extraction and the only reliable extraction results. Analyses of the phenolic compounds were performed by capillary column gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS), operating in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode after an aluminum oxide column-cleanup step prior to acetylation. The observed recovery rates under optimized conditions-ASE with ethyl acetate/formic acid-for 4-NP in spiked activated sewage sludge samples (spiking levels: 51, 88, or 554 microg/g on dry weight basis (dwb)) were 90, 107, or 101%. BPA (spiking levels: 50, 87, or 474 microg/g dwb) was found with recovery rates of 70, 105, or 101%, respectively. For anaerobically stabilized sewage sludge, recoveries for 4-NP (spiking levels: 40, 66, or 196 microg/g dwb) were 97, 95, or 101% and 90, 95, or 101% for BPA (spiking levels: 41, 67, or 474 microg/g dwb), respectively.
