SVSS: Intelligent video surveillance system for aircraft (2009)

Safety and security are the most discussed topics in the aviation field. The latest security initiatives in the field of aviation propose [1I] the aircraft carriers to implement video surveillance within the aircraft at strategic locations. The current proposals allow the video surveillance data to be stored within the aircraft and monitored by one of the flight crew. The monitoring crew will be responsible for identifying the anomaly within the aircraft and take necessary preventive actions. With the introduction of additional technology within the aircraft, mere human perception may not be sufficient to make a decision. In this research work, the authors explore the possibility of implementing a smart video surveillance system (SVSS) within the aircraft that is tuned toward detecting the behavioral anomaly within the aircraft. The SVSS will generate security triggers when it detects an anomaly within the aircraft. These triggers could be combined with other triggers generated by different aircraft components (possible alarms from the flight crew, data traffic anomaly, or alarm generated by one of the avionics components) to provide a better understanding of the situation to the monitoring crew.
Validation of New Mix Design Procedure for Cold In-Place Recycling with Foamed Asphalt (2007)

The main objective of this study is to validate a new mix design procedure for cold in-place recycling using foamed asphalt (CIR-foam) developed for the Iowa Department of Transportation. First, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials were collected from seven different CIR construction sites located across the state of Iowa. To determine the consistency of a new CIR-foam mix design procedure, the mix design was performed seven times using these RAP materials. The test specimens were prepared using gyratory compactor rather than Marshall hammer because it produced more consistent mixtures for various foamed asphalt contents and curing conditions. The indirect tensile strength test was performed on the vacuum-saturated specimens prepared using each of seven RAP material sources for five different foamed asphalt contents (1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0%), given a fixed moisture content of 4.0%. As the foamed asphalt content increased from 1.0 to 3.0% at 0.5% increments, air voids in the CIR-foam mixtures decreased gradually. The indirect tensile strength of CIR-foam specimens cured for two days at 60°C was significantly higher than that of CIR-foam specimens cured for three days at 40°C. Based on the new mix design procedure, the optimum foamed asphalt contents were consistently found at values between 1.5 and 2.5% for all seven different RAP materials. The stiffer residual asphalt required more foamed asphalt, whereas the higher residual asphalt content did not require a smaller amount of foamed asphalt. The raveling test result was very sensitive to the curing time and the foamed asphalt content, such that RAP materials with a large amount of stiff residual asphalt would exhibit more potential for raveling.
Watermarking QR Code (2015)

Recently the use of QR code for data coding becomes significantly increasing especially for coding identity, health and other specific data. Since some types of data such as identity, health, etc is private data then it needs to be further authenticated. Furthermore, the owner of the identity should be authenticated as well. Therefore, we have to insert biometric features which will be further authenticated. This paper proposed a method for inserting (watermarking) the biometric feature into the QR Code. The proposed method inserts the biometric feature into the data and error correcting codeword using Blum Blum Shub Pseudo random Number Generator. Based on the experiments result the coverage of QR Code is 1900 bits with the accuracy of the extraction more than 95 %. Furthermore, the scheme secrecy is improved compared with Lin, et.al.
Long-term vein graft patency (1994)

In spite of their limited long-term patency, saphenous vein grafts continue to be widely used in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. Careful surgical technique reduces to some extent the vascular endothelial damage occurring during surgery. Antiplatelet and antithrombotic therapy decrease vein graft occlusion in the short term but probably not in the long term. Lipid lowering therapy improves late vein graft patency, but its long-term benefit must be more firmly established. The value of external stenting for reducing intimal thickening of vein grafts remains controversial. The role of the internal thoracic artery as a bypass conduit is well established, but the mid- and long-term usefulness of other arterial conduits requires further study. Artificial grafts and allografts are still in the early stage of development. The indications, technical limitations, and long-term results of reoperation and balloon angioplasty have recently become better defined. However, more data are needed on the safety and efficacy of new technological devices such as intravascular stents, atherectomy, and laser angioplasty. Finally, randomized trials comparing different revascularization strategies in the management of high-risk patients with old, degenerated saphenous vein grafts are needed for the future.
Radiative recombination in GaAs-Al<i>x</i>Ga1−<i>x</i>As quantum dots (1992)

We present experimental and theoretical results on the low-temperature luminescence intensity of dry-etched GaAs-AlxGa1−xAs quantum dots. The luminescence intensity was found to decrease by two orders of magnitude with the decrease of dot sizes from 1 μm to 60 nm. Our intrinsic model of the emission yield invokes slower momentum and energy relaxation mechanisms as the lateral dimensions decrease. The additional extrinsic effect considered involves carrier diffusion with a surface nonradiative recombination velocity. Combining intrinsic and extrinsic effects and using a surface recombination velocity of ∼105 cm/s for GaAs, we can obtain a good fit to the data.
Child Poverty and Family Structure in Canada, 1981-1997 (2003)

This paper examines the relationship between family structure and child poverty in Canada over the 1981-1997 period. While recognizing the many methodological and conceptual difficulties encountered in efforts to document child poverty over time, two alternate indicators are used, Statistics Canada’s official low income cut-offs, and an alternate indicator of “deep poverty”. Using the Survey of Consumer Finances (1981, 1989 and 1997), trends in low income are considered, along with concurrent changes in the structure of Canadian families with children. Particular attention is paid to trends in the incidence of lone parenthood, the number of children per family, and the age of parents (as an indicator of recent shifts in the timing of childbearing). Overall, these changes are found to have offsetting effects on the incidence of child poverty, such that irrespective of a substantial growth in the incidence of lone parenthood, the overall impact of changes in family composition has been relatively modest.
Control of Melanogenesis in Mouse Melanoma Cells of Varying Metastatic Potential<xref ref-type="fn" rid="FN2">2</xref> (1978)

The control of melanin production, tyrosinase activity, and cell replication by melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) and cyclic AMP (cAMP) was examined in differentially metastasizing B16 mouse melanoma variants. In B16-F1 cells (low metastatic potential), MSH or cAMP greatly elevated tyrosinase activity and melanin content while inhibiting cell replication. The same parameters in B16-F5 cells (intermediate metastatic potential) were altered to a much lesser degree, whereas B16-F10 cells (high metastatic potential) were not significantly affected by MSH or cAMP. Therefore, a correlation exists between loss of hormonal regulation and increased metastatic potential.
Pricing Decision in Small Firms: Theory and Practice (1993)

Aims to study the pricing decisions of small firms. Conventional wisdom argues that small firms tend to use relatively unsophisticated methods of pricing; however, indicates that small firms may in fact be a good deal more sophisticated in their techniques of pricing than has previously been supposed. Reviews the theory and empirical evidence to date and notes a significant gap in the research into small business pricing. Using a case study method based on 12 detailed cases of the pricing policies of small companies, concludes that there is little evidence to support the findings of previous studies which indicated the predominance of full‐cost pricing. It was found that small companies avoided “head‐on” competition and sought to exploit their own market niche as a means of exercising more control over their prices.
Effects of low molecular weight heparins on fibrin polymerization and clot sensitivity to t-PA-induced lysis (1993)

We have previously demonstrated that therapeutic concentrations of unfractionated heparin (UFH) impair fibrin polymerization leading to the formation of clots which are more sensitive to lysis induced by tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). The aim of this study was to compare the effect of UFH with that of three different low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) on clot sensitivity to t-PA-induced lysis. Labelled fibrin clots, prepared from plasma containing UFH, Fraxiparine®, Reviparine®, Enoxaparine® or saline, were incubated in phosphate buffer containing t-PA (0.1 and 0.5 μg/ml) and plasminogen (20 μg/ml). The extent of clot lysis was quantified by counting the residual radioactivity of the clots and by measuring D-dimer levels released into the medium. Fibrin polymerization and clot structure were evaluated by means of a turbidimetric assay and by electron microscopic scanning. Pre-incubation of plasma with 0.5 or 1.0 U/ml UFH resulted in a marked dose-dependent acceleration of lysis induced by 0.1 or 0.5 μg/ml t-PA. In contrast, lysis rates induced by 0.5 μg/ml t-PA were not modified by pre-incubation of plasma with LMWHs. When exposed to 0.1 μg/ml t-PA clots formed from plasma containing 0.5-2 IU/ml of Fraxiparine, Reviparine and Enoxaparine showed only a minor increase in lysis rates compared to control clots. There was not a clear dose-response curve with LMWHs. Furthermore, lysis rates obtained with UFH-treated clots were always significantly higher than those seen with LMWHs-treated clots. We found that UFH, in contrast to LMWHs, induced marked changes of fibrin assembly and clot structure, resulting in the formation of clots with thicker fibres and larger pores. The relatively poor effects of LMWHs on clot structure and clot sensitivity to t-PA-induced lysis may contribute to their lower haemorrhagic potential.

Resolution limits in x-ray lithography calculated by means of x-ray lithography simulator <scp>X</scp> <scp>M</scp> <scp>A</scp> <scp>S</scp> (1986)

Resolution in x-ray lithography is influenced mainly by the exposure geometry, the resist’s behavior, and by the Fresnel diffraction as well. The range of photoelectrons created by the soft x rays, which can also effect the resolution, has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. The effective range remains below 20 nm depending on the resist material and on the exposure wavelength. As the photoelectrons do not limit the resolution in synchrotron lithography under practical conditions (proximity gap≥20 μm), this effect is not considered explicitly in the x-ray lithography simulator xmas which enables the three-dimensional simulation of resist profiles. The application of xmas to synchrotron lithography and the related one-layer resist systems reveals a Fresnel-limited resolution somewhere between 0.1 and 0.2 μm, depending on the actual resist parameters.
Influencia sobre la consistencia de cremas O/W en dependencia de su elaboración y formulación (1994)

Skin care emulsions of creamy consistency containing the new emulsifier polyglycerol methylglucose distearate are investigated according to the influence of different factors on the liquid crystalline structures. These are among others responsible for the consistency of the creams at room temperature as for warmth and cold stability. Results: a very good compromise between resistance to warmth and cold stress is reached when the formulations contain the new emulsifier and the consistency providing polar waxes in nearly equal parts of 4-6% total amount. The mean diameter of the oil droplets should be around 4 μm. The preparations which are emulsified by the direct method at temperatures greater than 65°C and additionally homogenized at 30°C showed maximum viscosity and consistency respectively. The results of the tested different emulsification methods as well as comparisons between emulsified preparations and the corresponding oil-free gels of emulsifiers and consistency enhancers suggest that using optimized preparation conditions additional emulsion viscosity enhancing structures are formed in the oil phase besides the gel network in the water phase

Effect of Two Disinfectant Treatments on Laboratory Analyses (1987)

Inactivation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the retrovirus associated with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), can be achieved both by heating at 56 degrees C and by chemical disinfection with beta-propiolactone (BPL). Such treatment of specimens from patients with suspected AIDS or antibodies to HIV could reduce any occupational risk to laboratory staff. This study demonstrates the effects of these treatments on laboratory analyses. Heat treatment of plasma caused clinically insignificant alteration in the results of electrolyte, urea, creatinine, albumin and glucose concentration, but significant alteration to total protein estimation and the activities of many enzymes. Haemolysis and cell agglutination occurred in many specimens of whole blood, making them unsuitable for haematological analyses. BPL caused less reduction of enzyme activities, and assay of many analytes, including electrolytes, plasma proteins, haemoglobin, white cell and platelet counts, was not significantly affected.
Possible cross-regulation of phosphate and sulfate metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. (1992)

CP1 (encoded by the gene CEP1) is a sequence-specific DNA binding protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that recognizes a sequence element (CDEI) found in both yeast centromeres and gene promoters. Strains lacking CP1 exhibit defects in growth, chromosome segregation and methionine biosynthesis. A YEp24-based yeast genomic library was screened for plasmids which suppressed the methionine auxotrophy of a cep1 null mutant. The suppressing plasmids contained either CEP1 or DNA derived from the PHO4 locus. Subcloning experiments confirmed that suppression correlated with increased dosage of PHO4. PHO4c, pho80 and pho84 mutations, all of which lead to constitutive activation of the PHO4 transcription factor, also suppressed cep1 methionine auxotrophy. The suppression appeared to be a direct effect of PHO4, not a secondary effect of PHO regulon derepression, and was PHO2-dependent. Spontaneously arising extragenic suppressors of cep1 methionine auxotrophy were also isolated; approximately one-third of them were alleles of pho80. While PHO4 overexpression suppressed the methionine auxotrophy of a cep1 mutant, CEP1 overexpression failed to suppress the phenotype of a pho4 mutant; however, a cep1 null mutation suppressed the low inorganic phosphate growth deficiency of a pho84 mutant. The results may suggest that phosphate and sulfate metabolism are cross-regulated.
Universal recovery behavior of negative bias temperature instability [PMOSFETs] (2004)

PMOSFETs experiencing negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) recover after stress is removed. We show for the first time that: (1) the recovery can reach 100% at 25/spl deg/C; (2) recovery has a universal behavior independent of stress voltage, stress time and temperature (below 25/spl deg/C); and (3) the recovered devices degrade at the same rate when re-stressed, indicating that recovery resets the degraded device to its original state. We propose a three step model to describe this mechanism: (i) voltage accelerated degradation, (ii) bias and degradation independent recovery and (iii) temperature driven "lock-in" step. We believe that the competing effects of these three steps corrupt common field/temperature acceleration models for NBTI.

This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02671149.
A viscous paint model for interactive applications: Research Articles (2004)

We present a viscous paint model for use in an interactive painting system based on the well-known Stokes' equations for viscous flow. Our method is, to our knowledge, the first unconditionally stable numerical method that treats viscous fluid with a free surface boundary. We have also developed a real-time implementation of the Kubelka-Munk reflectance model for pigment mixing, compositing and rendering entirely on graphics hardware, using programmable fragment shading capabilities. We have integrated our paint model with a prototype painting system, which demonstrates the model's effectiveness in rendering viscous paint and capturing a thick, impasto-like style of painting. Several users have tested our prototype system and were able to start creating original art work in an intuitive manner not possible with the existing techniques in commercial systems.

Nitrogen and carbon regulation of glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthase in Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 (2001)

The effect of nitrogen and carbon status on the regulation of glutamine synthetase (GS) and glutamate synthase (GOGAT) were investigated in Corynebacterium glutamicum 13032. Under carbon-sufficient, nitrogen-limiting conditions, GS and GOGAT activities were five- and seven-fold higher, respectively, and transcription of the corresponding genes (glnA and gltBD) was similarly induced. GS activity was also induced in complete medium with added glucose, while GOGAT activity was unaffected. Under carbon-limiting, nitrogen-limiting conditions, the level of GS induction was reduced approximately three-fold, whereas GOGAT activity did not respond. Disruption of the hkm gene, encoding a putative histidine kinase upstream of gltBD, reduced the levels of GOGAT activity two-fold under both nitrogen-rich and nitrogen-limiting conditions. Promoter studies using a hkm-chloramphenicol acetylase fusion plasmid revealed that transcription of hkm is moderately induced (ca. 1.5-fold) by nitrogen starvation, indicating that the Hkm protein may play a role in signal transduction of the nutritional status of the growth medium.
A rapid method to estimate Westergren sedimentation rates (2009)

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a nonspecific but simple and inexpensive test that was introduced into medical practice in 1897. Although it is commonly utilized in the diagnosis and follow-up of various clinical conditions, ESR has several limitations including the required 60 min settling time for the test. Herein we introduce a novel use for a commercially available computerized tube viscometer that allows the accurate prediction of human Westergren ESR rates in as little as 4 min. Owing to an initial pressure gradient, blood moves between two vertical tubes through a horizontal small-bore tube and the top of the red blood cell (RBC) column in each vertical tube is monitored continuously with an accuracy of 0.083 mm. Using data from the final minute of a blood viscosity measurement, a sedimentation index (SI) was calculated and correlated with results from the conventional Westergren ESR test. To date, samples from 119 human subjects have been studied and our results indicate a strong correlation between SI and ESR values (R(2)=0.92). In addition, we found a close association between SI and RBC aggregation indices as determined by an automated RBC aggregometer (R(2)=0.71). Determining SI on human blood is rapid, requires no special training and has minimal biohazard risk, thus allowing physicians to rapidly screen for individuals with elevated ESR and to monitor therapeutic responses.
