Adaptive secure channel coding based on punctured turbo codes (2006)

Both security and error control coding are very extensive subjects, each with a variety of sub-disciplines. A secure channel coding (joint encryption-channel coding) scheme provides both data secrecy and data reliability in one process to combat problems in an insecure and unreliable channel. In this paper, an adaptive secure channel coding scheme based on serial or parallel concatenated turbo codes is developed. Recent results indicate that the turbo principle delivers near-to-optimal strategies for the channel coding. Reliability and security are achieved by adapting the pseudo-random puncturing strategy to the conditions of the noisy channel. Simulation results show the relevance and superior performance of the proposed scheme at all signal-to-noise ratio levels.
Interspecific Reconstitution ofMaltose Transport andChemotaxis in Escherichia coli withMaltose-Binding Protein fromVarious EntericBlacteria (1985)

we foundthat MBP isproduced bySalmonella typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter aerogenes,andSerratia marcescens.MBP fromallofthese species cross-reacted withantibody against theE.coli protein andhada similar molecular weight (about 40,000). TheShigeUaflexneri andProteus mirabilis strains we examimed didnot synthesize MBP.Theisoelectric points ofMBP fromdifferent species varied fromtheacidextremeofE.coli (4.8) tothebasic extremeofE.aerogenes(8.9). Allspecies withMBP transported maltose withhighaffidity, although theV..forK.pneumoniae was severalfold lower thanthat fortheother species. Maltose chemotaxis was observed onlyinE.coli andE.aerogenes.InS.typhimurium LT2,Tarwas completely inactive inmaltose taxis, although itsignaled normally inresponsetoaspartate.

The Mre11 Nuclease Is Not Required for 5′ to 3′ Resection at Multiple HO-Induced Double-Strand Breaks (2004)

Current hypotheses suggest the Mre11 nuclease activity could be directly involved in double-strand break (DSB) resection in the presence of a large number of DSBs or limited to processing abnormal DNA ends. To distinguish between these possibilities, we used two methods to create large numbers of DSBs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosomes, without introducing other substrates for the Mre11 nuclease. Multiple DSBs were created either by expressing the HO endonuclease in strains containing several HO cut sites embedded within randomly dispersed Ty1 elements or by phleomycin treatment. Analysis of resection by single-strand DNA formation in these systems showed no difference between strains containing MRE11 or the mre11-D56N nuclease defective allele, suggesting that the Mre11 nuclease is not involved in the extensive 5' to 3' resection of DSBs. We postulate that the ionizing radiation (IR) sensitivity of mre11 nuclease-defective mutants results from the accumulation of IR-induced DNA damage that is normally processed by the Mre11 nuclease. We also report that the processivity of 5' to 3' DSB resection and the yield of repaired products are affected by the number of DSBs in a dose-dependent manner. Finally, we show that the exonuclease Exo1 is involved in the processivity of 5' to 3' resection of an HO-induced DSB at the MAT locus.

Ultrasonic Measurement of Sub‐Micron Particles (1995)

Abstract Based on technology described in a Du Pont patent for an offline system, we have developed a prototype in‐line ultrasonic cell for measuring particle size distribution. We have used this cell to verify the Allegra‐Hawley model of ultrasonic attenuation in dilute (< 5 % vol) slurries of sub‐micron ceramic particles, and we are developing a model that can cope with the multiple scattering effects occuring at higher concentrations. In this paper we present the results of attenuation measurements for ultrasound (2–50 MHz) in slurries with concentrations ranging from 0.5 010 to 38 010 (vol). The attenuation is proportional to slurry concentration up to 5 010 (vol) and is predicted by single scattering models. Above approximately 100% concentration, the attenuation is actually lower than expected. For the dilute slurries we find excellent agreement between our measurements and the Allegra‐Hawley calculations, and the effects of the particle size distribution are evident in the ultrasonic attenuation spectrum. These ultrasonic data can be inverted to determine the particle size and concentration in aqueous slurries of sub‐micron particles.
Cell death during differentiation of the retina in the mouse (1984)

A reproducible pattern of cell death associated with differentiation of the retina in mice was analyzed quantitatively by microscopy. Cell death occurs primarily during the first 2 weeks after birth and is essentially complete by the end of the third week. Death of individual cells involves nuclear condensation and pyknosis (apoptosis), followed by phagocytosis of the cellular remains by adjacent cells or motile phagocytes. From birth through 4 days, an increasing incidence of cell death is observed among ventricular cells. Ganglion cell degeneration is prominent during the first 11 days, peaking on days 2-5. Many presumptive amacrine cells die within the inner plexiform and inner nuclear layers, particularly between 3 and 8 days. Among adjoining bipolar and Müller cells, degeneration reaches a peak at 8-11 days. On day 5, formation of the outer plexiform layer separates the rods into two groups. Rod nuclei situated on the inner side of that layer immediately move across it to enter the outer nuclear layer, but numerous cells die during nuclear migration. Sporadic death of rods continues during the following 2 weeks. Cell death associated with cell differentiation (histogenetic death) is considered to represent a normal developmental process. Possible mechanisms resulting in cell degeneration are discussed. It is suggested that genetically regulated cell death serves to fine-tune neuronal networks during the terminal stages of development.
Research on an Intelligent Behavior Evaluation System for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (2018)

A scientific and reasonable evaluation system for unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) is very important. This paper studies the intelligent behavior of UGVs, and also proposes a comprehensive evaluation system for this intelligent behavior. The test and evaluation system includes the test content design, the test environment design, the test methods and the evaluation method. Using a hierarchical design approach, the test content is designed to be stage by stage, moving from simplicity to complexity and from individual modules to the entire vehicle. The hierarchical test environment is established according to the test content levels. The extension analytic hierarchy process (EAHP) has a better advantage than the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to avoid the problem of the ambiguity of expert experience judgment and the consistency of the judgment matrix in determine the weight of each evaluation index. Using chaos theory to calculate the Lyapunov index, the quality of the trajectory of the UGV is characterized. The grey relational analysis method is used to analyze the correlation between the comparison series and the reference series, and a comprehensive quantitative result of the intelligent behavior of the UGV is obtained. The experiment shows that the intelligent behavior evaluation system of the UGV is scientific and effective.

A 1-bit digital dynamically biased power amplifier for step envelope tracking transmitters (2009)

This paper focuses and provides experimental data for a 1-bit step envelope tracking power amplifier as a suitable solution to enhance the average PAE for wide dynamic signals. The PA is based on an active core realized combining SiGe HBTs with different sizes, which shows a peak CW PAE around 38% for the state 1 and 42% for state 2 respectively when terminated with optimum terminations. The 1-bit step envelope tracking architecture and its digital predistortion algorithm were implemented in a laboratory test bench. The experimental characterization demonstrates the capability of the proposed system to provide a factor two of improvement in terms of average PAE, without limitation of other signal parameters. Experimental validation is reported for a 2 MHz multi-sine signal with 5.5dB PAR at 2.074 GHz and for a 17 dBm output total power.

Arogyasree: An Enhanced Grid-Based Approach to Mobile Telemedicine (2010)

A typical telemedicine system involves a small set of hospitals providing remote healthcare services to a small section of the society using dedicated nodal centers. However, in developing nations like India where majority live in rural areas that lack specialist care, we envision the need for much larger Internet-based telemedicine systems that would enable a large pool of doctors and hospitals to collectively provide healthcare services to entire populations. We propose a scalable, Internet-based P2P architecture for telemedicine integrating multiple hospitals, mobile medical specialists, and rural mobile units. This system, based on the store and forward model, features a distributed context-aware scheduler for providing timely and location-aware telemedicine services. Other features like zone-based overlay structure and persistent object space abstraction make the system efficient and easy to use. Lastly, the system uses the existing internet infrastructure and supports mobility at doctor and patient ends.
Improved automatic target recognition (ATR) value through enhancements and accommodations (2006)

There is a strong and growing need for automatic target recognition (ATR) technologies. Those technologies have made great strides; however, there is a general sense that they are not having the full impact desired. This paper develops a value-based framework for considering how ATR technology can be made more relevant and then introduces and expands on two elements within that framework: 'enhancements' and 'accommodations'. Value is used here as the degree to which a technology's benefits exceed the technology's costs. Value may be improved by increasing benefits or decreasing costs; but it may be as important that the uncertainty about benefits and costs be reduced. Enhancements and accommodations are distinguished here from the 'core ATR'. While it is generally appreciated that improved core ATR performance could improve value, enhancements and accommodations might be overlooked by those focused on ATRs. Enhancements are ways of making the overall system, inclusive of a core ATR, more capable. Accommodations are ways of making the problem easier for the core ATR. An example enhancement is technology to fuse the output of the core ATR with other sources. An example accommodation is for the user to agree to limit the target set to large, and therefore more easily recognized, objects. This paper encourages the consideration of this framework and outlines a number of candidates for enhancements and accommodations for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) ATR, including humans-in-the-loop, change detection, fusion, modeling confusers, group detection, adaptive algorithms, class make-up, and scene-based decisions.
Efficacy of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF)–Penetrating Antiretroviral Drugs against HIV in the Neurological Compartment: Different Patterns of Phenotypic Resistance in CSF and Plasma (2005)

Antiretrovirals have different levels of penetration in the CSF, with several drugs achieving only low CSF concentrations. CSF isolates have different resistance profiles than do plasma isolates. Effective treatment decisions for CSF manifestations of disease may require better knowledge of drug penetration and the drug susceptibility of HIV in the CSF.
TMN aspects regarding radio relay systems for SDH and PDH signals (1993)

For SDH transmission equipment a TMN system is nearly mandatory. Thereby it is indispensable that all equipment concerned is managed by a common TMN system. Transmission equipment for that are add drop multiplexers (ADMX), fibre optic (FO)- and radio transmission systems for SDH signals. But also existing PDH equipment should be included into TMN as far as possible. Some aspects of a QD2-application on a SDH-radio relay system are treated with a view to a migration strategy to a CCITT conformable TMN interface.
A Device-Independent DVI Interpreter Library for Various Output Devices (2000)

In this paper, we describe DVIlib, which is a device-independent DVI interpreter library written in C developed by the author. Since DVIlib is completely independent from specific output devices, new printer drivers and previewers (DVIware) can easily be developed. DVIlib is a set of functions to read and render DVI files. To render a page, DVIlib generates a bitmap for each character in a page and calls a callback function to draw a bitmap on a device. Therefore, what a programmer must do to make a new DVIware program is to write device-dependent routines (initialization and drawing a bitmap on a device). Since DVIlib adopts VFlib as a font module, many font file formats are available, including PK, GF, VF, and Type 1. Thus, any DVIware that adopts DVIlib supports many font file formats. We developed a program to convert from DVI to bitmap, printer drivers, and previewers for the X Window System. These programs are easily developed by adopting DVIlib.
The combination of pulse compression with frequency scanning for three-dimensional radars (1964)

Within-pulse frequency scanning can be combined with pulse compression to achieve long-range radar performance combined with high values of data rate, range resolution and height resolution.The basic principles of a three-dimensional radar of this type are discussed. Scanning is achieved by feeding a beam-squinting array from a frequency-modulated transmitter and pulse compression is applied to all received signals. Height resolution depends upon the aerial's beam-width and range resolution depends upon the aerial group delay. The concept of a dispersive aerial is introduced and it is shown that this can be used to reduce the bandwidth requirements.Possible design procedures are examined and an example is given of an S-band radar design which has a high data rate and is virtually free from precipitation clutter effects. Future applications are discussed briefly.Mathematical appendices analyse the more important spectral relationships of this type of radar.
The Implementation of the NDIS: Who Wins, Who Loses? (2014)

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a major paradigm shift in funding and support for people with disability in Australia. It is a person centered model that has at its core a change in government funding away from service providers direct to individuals with disability. In principle it is heralded as a major step forward in disability rights. Nonetheless, the implementation poses threats as well as benefits. This paper outlines potential threats or risks from the perspective of not-for-profit organisations, workers in the sector and most importantly people with disability. It draws on a range of recent reports on the sector, person centered models of funding and care, the NDIS and past experience. Its purpose is to forewarn the major issues so that implementers can be forearmed.
Electromagnetic energy within dielectric spheres (1987)

We present exact and approximate analytic expressions for the time-averaged electromagnetic energy within dielectric spheres on the basis of rigorous Mie theory. Such information is of importance for the study of photochemical reactions within atmospheric water spheres. Numerical results show that on the average the energy inside a cloud droplet is enlarged by a factor exceeding 2 compared with that of a sphere of the same radius of the surrounding medium. In regions of resonance peaks the electromagnetic energy may be increased by more than 2 orders of magnitude.
High-<i>Q</i> Stark Cavity Absorption Cell for Microwave Spectrometers (1959)

Design considerations, description, and some data on the performance are given of a large pillbox-shaped Stark cavity absorption cell for the 1.25-cm wavelength region. The cavity can be used in any TE0m1 mode with m ranging from about 5 to about 12 and its most prominent features are: high loaded Q factor (∼5×103−104), good electric insulation (at pressures below 4×10−2 mm Hg Stark voltages up to 3000 v can be applied), low Stark field inhomogeneity (diameter to length ratio 15–20), large band width (from about 18 to about 28 kMc), and low mode density. No cross-mode resonances occur and the only undesired modes excited appreciably are the TE2m1 ones. When used in transmission only the TE0m1 modes couple to the output. The cavity can be used at the same time as a reference cavity of a Pound-type klystron frequency stabilizer. The klystron frequency will then automatically follow the resonance frequency of the cavity over a frequency interval up to 400 Mc.
Footprints in the Sea: Nautical and Physical Impossibilities of Menzies' 1421 Voyages (2006)

A bold challenge to accepted knowledge by Gavin Menzies in his 1421: The Year China Discovered the World is an exercise in literary licence changing the legendary Cheng Ho into a mythical Zheng He. It is not revisionist history, but fiction; nor is it science fiction, because the science is faulty. Moreover, a TV programme Junk History recently revealed that Menzies wasn't even the author - it was ghost written! A principle of academic freedom is to give consideration to conclusions based upon a hypothesis that, however, must be grounded in facts. Menzies rejects that Chinese contact with America took place sporadically over centuries, and contends that it all happened during what he calls the 1421-3 voyage. So his hypothesis depends directly upon the voyages, which he exclusively discovered and are the foundation upon which all else depends. Many accept Menzies' 1421 because of the mystique reflected from a retired senior officer of the Royal Navy and his self-touted skills and experience acquired during a naval career that is somewhat misleadingly presented. In fact, his service was curtailed when he resigned in 1970 as a Lieutenant Commander, the equivalent of an army major, with about a dozen years as an officer. A close examination of his narrative reveals that he is deficient in nautical knowledge, which undermines his pronouncements in other disciplines where, he admits, he is self-taught. This study relates to the heart of the matter. The global voyages narrated by Menzies could never have taken place. Nor could the Ming astronomers have found longitude in the manner he describes. It therefore follows that from that time there was no Chinese world map complete with longitude and latitude from which European explorers derived pre-knowledge of their destinations.

Preparation and Chromatographic Properties of Some Chemically Bonded Phases for Reversed-Phase Liquid Chromatography (1978)

Abstract Four different monomeric chemically bonded phases suitable for reversed-phase liquid chromatography have been prepared. Duplicate preparations, elemental analysis, post-treatment with TMS and chromatographic properties all indicate that maximum coverage has been obtained. The chromatographic activity of the silica surface is discussed on the basis of TMS-phases with various surface coverages. It is observed that logarithmic retention data for homologous series and different RP-phases-partially taken from the literature—form a set of straight lines with a common intersection point.

A method research on fire source localization using dual-line gas sensor array (2008)

Fire source localization is an important direction in the research area of fire detection. For application researches of fire source localization in fire nonage, a method of fire source localization and its algorithm are presented in the paper, via. transforming the task of fire source localization to the orientation detection of gas signal source beneath the certain conditions, in which a mode of dual-line gas sensor array is applied to collect the gas concentration signal in real time when material burning in fire nonage and time delay of the signal obtained from various array elements in the condition of different concentration grads is used to perform the orientation estimation of signal source based on time delay estimation. Furthermore, the simulation of the method is done, and it is indicated that the method has fine veracity and robustness for estimating the orientation of gas signal source and locating the fire source.
DNA hybridization probe for the Pseudomonas fluorescens group (1986)

Plasmid pHF360 was constructed from cloned rRNA genes (rDNA) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and used as hybridization probe for the Pseudomonas fluorescens group. The probe was tested by dot and in situ colony hybridizations to chromosomal DNAs from a wide variety of organisms. pHF360 DNA hybridized exclusively to chromosomal DNAs from bacteria representing the P. fluorescens group and separated them clearly from all other bacteria tested in the present study. Determination of the nucleotide sequence of the cloned DNA showed that it is a fragment from a 23S rRNA gene of P. aeruginosa. It was compared with the published 23S RNA sequence from Escherichia coli.
