CLIC/ILC Researchers Explore New Avenues for Collaboration (2010)

Researchers from CLIC and ILC met for their first common International Workshop on Linear Colliders, which was held in Geneva from 18 to 22 October. Although the talks were mostly scientific and technical, the political message behind them was a breakthrough, as the workshop showed the progress made in unifying the two communities. The International Workshop on Linear Colliders (IWLC), which was organised by the European Committee for Future Accelerators, hosted by CERN, and held at CERN and the International Conference Centre in Geneva, attracted a large audience of about 500 experts. Although there have been other joint conferences between the CLIC and ILC communities before, they have all been focused on specific technical and/or managerial issues. The IWLC was part of an ongoing effort by CLIC and ILC to provide an environment in which researchers can exchange ideas, inform their peers about their most recent achievements and work together on common issues. Given the possible technical overlaps between the two projects, this was an opportunity to avoid a duplication of effort and take advantage of the great synergies between the two studies. The CLIC and ILC communities discussed their many shared challenges, including issues with beam delivery systems and machine-detector interfaces, physics and detectors, positron generation, beam dynamics, damping rings, civil engineering and conventional facilities, and cost and schedule. While technical issues and technology were the focus of the conference, the politics and policy of both projects were also discussed. “The conference explored how the reaction to a possible LHC discovery in the short or medium-term could affect ILC and CLIC, especially in view of the update of the European Strategy for Particle Physics in 2012”, said Jean-Pierre Delahaye, CLIC study leader. Irrespective of which of the two is chosen as a future accelerator, the two communities expect to continue to work together towards an optimal solution. Progress has been made on both colliders: CLIC has shown that it can generate a high-intensity drive beam by beam manipulation, and has demonstrated two-beam acceleration with high-field structures; ILC has achieved its 2010 goal of making sure that half of the ILC cavities (the superconducting accelerating structures) produced reach the desired acceleration gradient. Both projects are completing R&D reports and used the workshop as an opportunity to review technical issues. While the CLIC community is planning to present its Conceptual Design Report in 2011, the ILC will publish a more advanced Technical Design Report in 2012. The IWLC was the first of several planned annual meetings of ILC/CLIC technical working groups. According to ILC Director Barry Barish, “the workshop was a real success – a big step has been made towards one community that jointly decides the future. Now we have to let science decide between the linear collider technologies.” To view images from the workshop, visit the photo album at ILCNewsline.
Clique-based cooperative multiagent reinforcement learning using factor graphs (2014)

In this paper, we propose a clique-based sparse reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm for solving cooperative tasks. The aim is to accelerate the learning speed of the original sparse RL algorithm and to make it applicable for tasks decomposed in a more general manner. First, a transition function is estimated and used to update the Q-value function, which greatly reduces the learning time. Second, it is more reasonable to divide agents into cliques, each of which is only responsible for a specific subtask. In this way, the global Q-value function is decomposed into the sum of several simpler local Q-value functions. Such decomposition is expressed by a factor graph and exploited by the general maxplus algorithm to obtain the greedy joint action. Experimental results show that the proposed approach outperforms others with better performance.
Pedestrian dead reckoning towards indoor location based applications (2011)

In this work a pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) algorithm is proposed in which 3-axis inertial sensors (accelerometer and gyroscope) are used. This work consists of the first stage of a project, in which inertial sensors will be integrated with a global position system (GPS) sensor and a camera in a hand-held platform which performs monocular simultaneous localization and mapping (mono SLAM). The PDR algorithm was implemented in Simulink-Matlab. We present results of applying this approach in a test trajectory in a National Institute for Astrophysics Optics and Electronics' (INAOE) building.
Pharmacokinetics of pterostilbene in<scp>S</scp>prague‐<scp>D</scp>awley rats: The impacts of aqueous solubility, fasting, dose escalation, and dosing route on bioavailability (2013)

Aqueous solubility was identified as a barrier to its oral bioavailability while solubilizing PTS with HP-β-CD substantially increased its bioavailability; dose manipulation was a practical strategy to enhance its bioavailability and systemic exposure; and its delivery through oral mucosa was feasible. As PTS possessed superior pharmacokinetics, it is a favorable candidate for further development.

We study the structural and magnetic orders in electron-doped BaFe(2-x)Ni(x)As2 by high-resolution synchrotron x-ray and neutron scatterings. Upon Ni doping x, the nearly simultaneous tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural (T(s)) and antiferromagnetic (T(N)) phase transitions in BaFe2As2 are gradually suppressed and separated, resulting in T(s)>T(N) with increasing x, as was previously observed. However, the temperature separation between T(s) and T(N) decreases with increasing x for x≥0.065, tending toward a quantum bicritical point near optimal superconductivity at x≈0.1. The zero-temperature transition is preempted by the formation of a secondary incommensurate magnetic phase in the region 0.088≲x≲0.104, resulting in a finite value of T(N)≈T(c) + 10 K above the superconducting dome around x≈0.1. Our results imply an avoided quantum critical point, which is expected to strongly influence the properties of both the normal and superconducting states.

VSAR: a high resolution radar systemfor detection ofmoving targets (1997)

The velocity SAR (VSAR) is a conceptual radar imaging system capable of reconstructing the three-dimensional range/azimuth/velocity image for a scene that contains moving objects. It combines the high resolution imaging capability of SAR with the clutter rejection capability of MTI systems. The clutter rejection and motion estimation capabilities of VSAR make it potentially useful for a variety of missions. The system concept is described, the basic signal-processing algorithms are developed, and a performance analysis of the VSAR system in the context of detecting low-RCS ground targets is provided. The VSAR system is able to estimate the speed of moving targets, down to slow speeds of the order of 0.5 m/s.
Automatic Detection of Malware-Generated Domains with Recurrent Neural Models (2017)

Modern malware families often rely on domain-generation algorithms (DGAs) to determine rendezvous points to their command-and-control server. Traditional defence strategies (such as blacklisting domains or IP addresses) are inadequate against such techniques due to the large and continuously changing list of domains produced by these algorithms. This paper demonstrates that a machine learning approach based on recurrent neural networks is able to detect domain names generated by DGAs with high precision. The neural models are estimated on a large training set of domains generated by various malwares. Experimental results show that this data-driven approach can detect malware-generated domain names with a F_1 score of 0.971. To put it differently, the model can automatically detect 93 % of malware-generated domain names for a false positive rate of 1:100.
A study on dynamic load balance for IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN (2002)

We study the problem of load balancing in 802.11-based wireless networks, operating in infrastructure mode. In a large wireless network with multiple collocated Access Points (AP), a load balancing policy is necessary for the distribution of the wireless stations (WS) to the AP’s, so as the network performance to be maximized. Already proposed algorithms, which are based only on the received signal strength indicator (RSSI), may cause all the WS to be associated to a single or to a very few number of AP, and result in an overall network performance degradation. In this paper, we propose a load balancing procedure, which acts in two separate levels. First, the AP’s are either distributed across the channels (if the number of AP is small) or located in the same channel that is specified by taking into account the channel-location and the received RSSI of the neighbor AP. Second, the WS are distributed across all the available AP based not only on RSSI measurements but also on the number of WS already associated to the AP and other link quality measurements. Besides, in this paper we describe the signaling extension needed for the implementation of the proposed load balancing procedure.
The relationship between work and well‐being in clergywomen: implications for career counseling (2005)

This article focuses on the ministry, a profession in which 2 important characteristics intersect to pose special challenges for women in balancing their work and family responsibilities. In this qualitative study of clergywomen ( N = 190), the authors examined the impact of being female in a male‐dominated occupation, particularly one that has been traditionally structured as a “2‐person career.” They argue that career counselors are in a unique position to prepare future clergywomen for the special challenges they will face in the ministry and make recommendations for ways in which career counselors may serve this distinctive population.
Metal−Molecule−Metal Junctions via PFPE Assisted Nanotransfer Printing (nTP) onto Self-Assembled Monolayers (2009)

We report a simple method to form metal-molecule-metal junctions (MMMs) via nanotransfer printing with low surface energy perfluoropolyether (PFPE) based stamps. Transfer printing is demonstrated onto thermally deposited metal thin film electrodes where the root-mean-squared roughness of these films is controlled by the deposition process and varies by 40% or more. Transfer of Au and Co thin films is reported onto Au/SAM and Co/SAM electrodes in well-ordered, 200 nm MMM arrays; furthermore, nickel nanotransfer printing is shown for the first time in the construction of 200 nm arrays of Ni/SAM/Ni junctions. The nanotransfer printing we report is reproducible in high fidelity which is required in the application of practical molecular electronic devices. Current-voltage characteristics are presented.
Strategies for combining conflicting dogmatic beliefs (2003)

The combination ofpossibly conpicting beliefs andevidence forms an imporrantpan of various disciplines of arrijicial reasoning. In everyday discourse dogmatic be- liefs are expressed by observers when they have a strong and rigid opinion abour a subject of interest. Such be- liefs can be expressed and formalised within the Demspter- Shafer belief theory. This paper describes and compares methods for combining dogmatic or highly conpicting be- liefs within this framework. classic assumption that elements in a frame of discernment must be mutually exclusive, and thereby provides a new in- terpretation and framework for managing belief conflicts. In this paper, we describe various proposals for com- bining beliefs and how they handle cases when the beliefs are conflicting and dogmatic. Section 2 presents a back- ground on Dempster-Shafer (DS) theory of evidence and Section 3 describes Dempster's rule of combination as well as its unnonnalised and disjunctive versions. The subse- quent sections introduce alternatives lo Dempster's rule i.e. the Weighted Operator (Section 4), the minC Combination (Section 5). and the Consensus Operator (Section 6). In

[reaction: see text] Synthesis of the unique trisaccharide repeating unit of the O-polysaccharide of the lipopolysaccharide from Danish Helicobacter pylori strains has been accomplished. Key steps include the coupling of three monosaccharide moieties by glycosylations employing the 2'-carboxybenzyl glycoside method. Also presented is a method for the synthesis of the novel branched sugar, 3-C-methyl-D-mannose, which is one of three monosaccharide components.
A novel all digital phase locked loop (ADPLL) with ultra fast locked time and high oscillation frequency (2002)

In this paper a new architecture for all digital phase locked loop (ADPLL) is proposed The new architecture is based on the ADPLL architecture proposed by Motorola in 1995 but modified in some block A new binary search decision scheme was used to accelerate the frequency acquisition process. It can reduce the chip area and increase the operating frequency. In this design, a 14-bit control word is used to control the digital control oscillator. The new type ADPLL has been designed and implemented by TSMC's 0-35 /spl mu/ IP4M CMOS process for 3.3V applications. The phase lock process takes 20-reference cycle, and the maximum frequency of the proposed ADPLL is about 820MHz.
Functional Evolution in the Plant SQUAMOSA-PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE (SPL) Gene Family (2013)

The SQUAMOSA-PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE (SPL) family of transcription factors is functionally diverse, controlling a number of fundamental aspects of plant growth and development, including vegetative phase change, flowering time, branching, and leaf initiation rate. In natural plant populations, variation in flowering time and shoot architecture have major consequences for fitness. Likewise, in crop species, variation in branching and developmental rate impact biomass and yield. Thus, studies aimed at dissecting how the various functions are partitioned among different SPL genes in diverse plant lineages are key to providing insight into the genetic basis of local adaptation and have already garnered attention by crop breeders. Here we use phylogenetic reconstruction to reveal nine major SPL gene lineages, each of which is described in terms of function and diversification. To assess evidence for ancestral and derived functions within each SPL gene lineage, we use ancestral character state reconstructions. Our analyses suggest an emerging pattern of sub-functionalization, neo-functionalization, and possible convergent evolution following both ancient and recent gene duplication. Based on these analyses we suggest future avenues of research that may prove fruitful for elucidating the importance of SPL gene evolution in plant growth and development.
Interaction of polyvinylpyrrolidone and iodine (1974)

Abstract A nonsolvent preparation of the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) complex provides new insight into the nature of the polymer‐iodine interaction. The preparation is obtained by simply mixing PVP with crystalline iodine and is of interest because it provides a system in which no interfering ions are present and only one type of iodine is initially present. The iodine is shown to undergo hydrolysis with moisture in the polymer to give iodide and hypoiodite. The ionic forms of iodine appear to associate with the molecular iodine, resulting in the final stable PVP‐iodine complex.
Control of Mastitis by Hygiene and Therapy (1979)

Hygiene and therapy are two important components of a program to control mastitis. Conscientious application of these practices significantly reduces intramammary infection, especially when they are applied in concert with superior management. The two components operate independently, and response is maximum when both are applied. Hygiene acts by reducing the frequency of infection. The primary effect of therapy is to increase the rate of eliminating established infections, although dry cow treatment also provides prophylactic benefits. The most effective hygiene and therapy practices are dipping of teats after milking and treating each quarter at the end of lactation.

Grass pollen sublingual immunotherapy for seasonal rhinoconjunctivitis: a randomized controlled trial (2002)

Grass pollen sublingual immunotherapy was well tolerated. Although there was no significant change in diary scores, the improvement in overall assessments, which correlated with inhibition of the late skin response and increases in serum IgG4 : IgE ratio, indicates the need for larger, dose-ranging studies.
Simvastatin-Induced Lupus Erythematosus (1998)

We report the case of a 79-year-old man who had onset of fatigue, myalgia, and pleuritic chest pain 3 months after initiation of therapy with simvastatin. He had signs of pleuropericarditis due to simvastatin-induced lupus erythematosus. This should alert clinicians to this possible adverse effect of simvastatin and other statins.
Paraffin as Phase Change Material (2019)

Nowadays, numerous problems, including the environmental problem caused by fossil fuels, have led to greater attention to the optimal use of energy and the development of renewable energy. One of the most important parts of using energy efficiently is storing it. Among the many ways introduced for energy storage, thermal energy storage, including latent heat, is among the most interesting. This storage is done with materials called phase change materials (PCMs). These materials store the energy in the form of latent heat at constant temperature during the phase transition, discussed in this chapter, and release the same stored energy in the crystallization process. These materials are mainly classified into three categories: organic, inorganic, and eutectics. Today, these materials are widely used with different properties in a variety of fields. Paraffin is one of the most important organic PCMs due to its numerous advantages that will be discussed in the following sections. From the methods of using paraffinic PCMs, two main methods, encapsulation and shape-stable PCMs, are discussed in detail. On the whole, this chapter of the book attempts to briefly discuss paraffins and their unique role in thermal energy storage systems as phase change materials.
The DNA-Dependent and RNA-Dependent DNA Polymerase Activities of the Reverse Transcriptases of Human Immunodeficiency Viruses Types 1 and 2 (1991)

We have constructed a series of plasmids which, when introduced into Escherichia coli, induce the overexpression of soluble wild-type and mutated forms of the reverse transcriptases (RTs) from human immunodeficiency viruses types 1 and 2 (HIV-1 and HIV-2, respectively). These proteins were analyzed previously for their RNA-dependent DNA polymerase (RDDP) and ribonuclease H (RNase H) activities. In the present study we assayed the different mutant RTs for their DNA-dependent DNA polymerase (DDDP) activity, employing an in situ polyacrylamide gel activity assay. The results indicate that both the RDDP and DDDP catalytic functions of HIV-1 RT mutants are affected similarly by mutations suggesting a high degree of overlap between the catalytic domains involved in both activities. Contrariwise, many of the HIV-2 RT mutants display no correlation between these two DNA polymerase activities, that is, the DDDP activity was not affected by the mutations introduced in the native enzyme in contrast to the RDDP activity. We were thus able to generate mutants of HIV-2 RT that unlike the wild-type RT, are capable of transcribing only DNA and not RNA. The disparity in mutational-catalytic relations between the two HIV-related RTs may reflect a possible difference in the structure and folding properties of the two proteins.
