Efficient User Controlled Inter-Domain SIP Mobility Authentication, Registration, and Call Routing (2007)

Over the past decade, multimedia services have gained significant acceptance and played an important role in the convergence of IP networks. The proliferation of mobile devices and the nomadic user and computing lifestyles on current networks make <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">mobility</i> <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">support</i> a crucial ingredient of current IP-based multimedia systems. The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) presents one approach towards supporting IP mobility. Additionally, SIP is increasingly gaining in popularity as the next generation multimedia signaling and session establishment protocol, and the SIP infrastructure is anticipated to be extensively deployed all over the Internet. We have lately proposed an approach to inter-domain SIP mobility which we call H-SIP. H-SIP is a user-controlled mobility scheme that improves personal and terminal mobility. H-SIP uses persistent identifiers and leverages the traditional SIP architecture to abstract any domain binding from users. This paper expands on our previous work and experimentally proves the efficiency of H-SIP in achieving inter-domain authentication and call routing through modeling and real-time measurements.
Être et ne pas être un animal (2002)

Il n'y a que des individus dans la nature. Mais qu'est-ce qu'un individu ? Le sens de ce terme est-il le meme pour tous : bacteries, plantes, oiseaux, souris, etres humains ? La reponse, selon le conferencier, reside dans l'etude du developpement, dans les genes architectes qui tracent le plan du corps et nous eclairent sur l'evolution des especes. Elle se trouve aussi dans l'histoire, toujours singuliere, de tout individu. Mettant en perspective les donnees les plus recentes de sa discipline, il suggere que, par la grâce de quelques mutations et l'aventure evolutive de son cortex, l'Homme est comme sorti de la nature et il propose une distinction radicale entre nous et les autres especes.

Development of wide operational range fiber laser for processing thin film photovoltaic panels (2010)

Continued reduction of production costs for the manufacture of thin film photovoltaic solar panels is required to support the ongoing broad adoption of this important technology. Laser scribing is an integral manufacturing process for the production of monolithically-integrated thin film solar cells. An advanced generation 1.06 um pulsed fiber master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) has recently been developed with performance attributes designed to meet current and next generation thin film laser scribing requirements for improving thin film solar cell device efficiencies, throughput, and yield. It features broad pulse width flexibility (200ps to 20 ns), excellent beam quality, and stable pulse output over a wide range of pulse repetition frequencies (50 kHz to 1 MHz). These performance attributes are expected to enable advanced laser process developments for amorphous (a)-Si, Cd-Te, CIS (CuInSe), and next-generation thin film PV cell. As a result of the experiment, we have found that 10 to 20-ns pulse width gives the good results of structuring TCO layers while the pulse width of shorter than 1ns seems suitable for Mo-layer ablation. The scanning speed of 2500mm/s and 6000mm/s has been achieved, respectively.
Search for parity violation in93Nbneutron resonances (1999)

A new search has been performed for parity violation in the compound nuclear states of ${}^{94}\mathrm{Nb}$ by measuring the helicity dependence of the neutron total cross section. Transmission measurements on a thick niobium target were performed by the time-of-flight method at the Manuel Lujan Neutron Scattering Center with a longitudinally polarized neutron beam in the energy range 32 to 1000 eV. A total of 18 p-wave resonances in ${}^{93}\mathrm{Nb}$ were studied with none exhibiting a statistically significant parity-violating longitudinal asymmetry. An upper limit of $1.0\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}7}$ eV (95% confidence level) was obtained for the weak spreading width ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{w}$ in ${}^{93}\mathrm{Nb}.$
Accurate Validation Methods for Dynamic Nonlinear Behavioral Models of Wideband RF Power Amplifiers Using Memoryless Predistortion Techniques (2007)

In this paper, an accurate validation method for dynamic nonlinear behavioral models of wideband RF high power amplifiers is presented. This method is an indirect validation approach which is based on memoryless predistortion technique to remove the out-of-band spectrum regrowth caused by static memoryless nonlinearities of the power amplifiers. The effectiveness of the model validation method is demonstrated with an L-band push-pull GaAs FET 45-dBm peak-envelope-power amplifier stimulated by a two-carrier 3GPP-FDD WCDMA signal.
New approach to a constant beamwidth transducer (1978)

The theory of a broadband constant beamwidth transducer which is to be used primarily as a projector is presented. The transducer is a spherical cap of arbitrary half angle α shaded so that the normal velocity is equal to U0Pν(cos ϑ), where Pν is the Legendre function whose root of smallest angle occurs at ϑ=α. The required value for ν, the order of the Legendre function (which is not, in general, an integer) can be obtained to within 1% for α?1 radian from the approximation ν?0.5[(4.81/α)−1]. The transducer is shown to have uniform acoustic loading, extremely low sidelobes, and an essentially constant beam pattern for all frequencies above a certain cutoff frequency. Under piezoelectric drive the transducer is shown to have a flat transmitting current response over a broad band.
Sirtuin‐3 (SIRT3), a novel potential therapeutic target for oral cancer (2010)

The current investigation revealed a novel role for SIRT3 in oral cancer carcinogenesis as a promoter of cell proliferation and survival, thus implicating SIRT3 as a new potential therapeutic target to treat oral cancer.
3D multi-sector vivaldi antennas based on metallized plastic technology (2007)

A conceptually simple 3D multi-sector antenna based on an original layout of Vivaldi-type antennas and compatible with metallised plastic manufacturing technology is introduced in this paper. The solution offers a great freedom in shapes and dimensions for the Vivaldi antenna and a large choice in the number of sectors and gain of each beam. The use of metallized plastic technology, based on molding 3D complex structures enables mass production of the antenna at low cost. To prove the concept a 4-sector antenna, based on a Vestodur poly-butylene terephthalate (PBT) plastic material and mounted onto a FR4 switching board, has been designed in the 4.8-6 GHz band.

On network coding capacity under on-off scheduling (2012)

We investigate the tradeoffs between rate (bits per channel use) and throughput (bits per time) in network coding over networks of independent noisy or noiseless channels under on-off scheduling. While some networks exhibit an inherent tradeoff between rate and throughput at finite blocklengths, our main result shows that rate and throughput can be simultaneously maximized in the limit of large blocklengths.

Eve: A Scalable Network Client Emulator (2003)

Client emulation tools play a central role in the performance evaluation, capacity planning, and workload characterization of servers. However, traditional emulation tools, because of their limited scalability and extensibility, fail to keep up with servers as they increase in complexity and performance. In this paper, we propose Eve, a scalable client emulation tool that is capable of stress-testing powerful servers. Eve relies on an open and modular architecture that provides a simple and extensible programming environment. By incorporating I/O call handing into its user-thread library, Eve is capable of simultaneously emulating thousands of clients. Furthermore, Eve uses a distributed shared variable (DSV) core to facilitate communication between different clients, thus enhancing scalability to multiple machines.
Prognostic methods for proton exchange membrane fuel cell under automotive load cycling: a review (2020)

This study presents a review of prognostic methods applied to automotive proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). PEMFC durability is strongly affected when it is subjected to automotive load cycling (ALC). ALC is normally composed of four operation modes such as start‐up, idle, transient high‐current demand and shutdown. All of these operation modes drastically change the internal variables of the system like temperature, pressure, relative humidity etc. causing degradation of the fuel cell components in a short time. Prognostic methods could be a possible solution to tackle the PEMFC's low durability issue because they allow predicting the remaining useful life of the system in order to apply preventive maintenance plans. Therefore, the objective of this study is to review the prognostic techniques applied to PEMFC under ALC. In the first part of this study, a summary of PEMFC degradation mechanisms caused by ALC is realised based on literature review. In the second part, the prognostic methods review for automotive PEMFCs is carried out and a general synthesis and future challenges are given in the third part of the study.
Removal-Cost Method: An efficient voltage selection algorithm for multi-core platforms under PVT (2009)

In this paper, we present a novel solution to the Voltage Selection Problem for large multi-core architectures. Compared to previous algorithms, ours provides similar results, but is more than 10x faster. This run-time improvement is important, especially for large multi-core platforms with hundreds of cores. We evaluate our algorithm in the context of a process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variation-aware energy optimization framework.
Determination of Second-Order Nonlinearities of Thin Films of Low Symmetry (1998)

Second-harmonic generation is a sensitive probe of surfaces and thin films. However, it is difficult to recognize structures of low symmetry. For example, distinction between anisotropy and chirality is nontrivial [1]. Azimuthal rotation of the sample about surface normal is sensitive to anisotropy. However, for focused beams, sample anisotropy and inhomogeneity can lead to similar rotation patterns. Here, we complement azimuthal rotation with polarization measurements (Fig. 1) to study thin films of low symmetry. Our technique does not rely on the absolute levels of different second-harmonic signals and is limited only by the accuracy of single polarization measurements.
Biocompatibility of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell–Derived Retinal Progenitor Cell Grafts in Immunocompromised Rats (2022)

Loss of photoreceptor cells is a primary feature of inherited retinal degenerative disorders including age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa. To restore vision in affected patients, photoreceptor cell replacement will be required. The ideal donor cells for this application are induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) because they can be derived from and transplanted into the same patient obviating the need for long-term immunosuppression. A major limitation for retinal cell replacement therapy is donor cell loss associated with simple methods of cell delivery such as subretinal injections of bolus cell suspensions. Transplantation with supportive biomaterials can help maintain cellular integrity, increase cell survival, and encourage proper cellular alignment and improve integration with the host retina. Using a pig model of retinal degeneration, we recently demonstrated that polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds fabricated with two photon lithography have excellent local and systemic tolerability. In this study, we describe rapid photopolymerization-mediated production of PCL-based bioabsorbable scaffolds, a technique for loading iPSC-derived retinal progenitor cells onto the scaffold, methods of surgical transplantation in an immunocompromised rat model and tolerability of the subretinal grafts at 1, 3, and 6 months of follow-up (<i>n</i> = 150). We observed no local or systemic toxicity, nor did we observe any tumor formation despite extensive clinical evaluation, clinical chemistry, hematology, gross tissue examination and detailed histopathology. Demonstrating the local and systemic compatibility of biodegradable scaffolds carrying human iPSC-derived retinal progenitor cells is an important step toward clinical safety trials of this approach in humans.
The major role of androgens in prostate cancer and the need for more efficient blockade (2011)

Although improvements in surgery and radiotherapy have also occurred, National Cancer Institute data from 2.1 million patients with cancer in the USA between 1975 and 1995 have led to the conclusion that “cancer-fighting drugs improved survival rates, especially for cancer of the prostate, where drug innovations have been the greatest” [1]. In prostate cancer, the most important drugs have been gonadotropinreleasing hormone (GnRH) agonists [2] and pure anti-androgens permitting the administration of a pure anti-androgen combined with medical or surgical castration (combined androgen blockade [CAB]), at the start of treatment [3]. However, despite significant improvements in diagnosis and treatment, prostate cancer remains the second most common cause of death after lung cancer in American men.
Teaching Maximum Power Point Trackers Using a Photovoltaic Array Model with Graphical User Interface (2006)

This work intends to present a laboratory work material for teaching Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) for graduate students. For good understanding of the MPPT methods, it is important to be aware of the PV arrays’ characteristics in various conditions. Thereby a detailed model of the PV array has been developed, using Matlab. The model allows characterizing the PV array in different temperature, irradiance and shading conditions, using Graphical User Interface (GUI). The outputs of the model are the I(V) and P(V) characteristics, as well as the voltage, current, and power at the Maximum Power Point of the PV array. The current and voltage vectors are automatically loaded into a look-up table in a Simulink model. Two of the most popular MPPT algorithms, the Perturb &amp;amp; Observe (P&amp;amp;O) and the Incremental Conductance (INC) have been considered: first simulated in Simulink and than experimentally tested on a DSP platform. For experimental validation, a hardware setup with a grid connected inverter and a TMS320 F2812 eZdsp board was used.
Peptidomic and transcriptomic profiling of four distinct spider venoms (2017)

Venom based research is exploited to find novel candidates for the development of innovative pharmacological tools, drug candidates and new ingredients for cosmetic and agrochemical industries. Moreover, venomics, as a well-established approach in systems biology, helps to elucidate the genetic mechanisms of the production of such a great molecular biodiversity. Today the advances made in the proteomics, transcriptomics and bioinformatics fields, favor venomics, allowing the in depth study of complex matrices and the elucidation even of minor compounds present in minute biological samples. The present study illustrates a rapid and efficient method developed for the elucidation of venom composition based on NextGen mRNA sequencing of venom glands and LC-MS/MS venom proteome profiling. The analysis of the comprehensive data obtained was focused on cysteine rich peptide toxins from four spider species originating from phylogenetically distant families for comparison purposes. The studied species were Heteropoda davidbowie (Sparassidae), Poecilotheria formosa (Theraphosidae), Viridasius fasciatus (Viridasiidae) and Latrodectus mactans (Theridiidae). This led to a high resolution profiling of 284 characterized cysteine rich peptides, 111 of which belong to the Inhibitor Cysteine Knot (ICK) structural motif. The analysis of H. davidbowie venom revealed a high richness in term of venom diversity: 95 peptide sequences were identified; out of these, 32 peptides presented the ICK structural motif and could be classified in six distinct families. The profiling of P. formosa venom highlighted the presence of 126 peptide sequences, with 52 ICK toxins belonging to three structural distinct families. V. fasciatus venom was shown to contain 49 peptide sequences, out of which 22 presented the ICK structural motif and were attributed to five families. The venom of L. mactans, until now studied for its large neurotoxins (Latrotoxins), revealed the presence of 14 cysteine rich peptides, out of which five were ICK toxins belonging to the CSTX superfamily. This in depth profiling of distinct ICK peptide families identified across the four spider species highlighted the high conservation of these neurotoxins among spider families.

Efficient Acquisition of Web Data through Restricted Query Interfaces (2001)

A wealth of information is available on the Web. But often, such data are hidden behind form interfaces which allow only a restrictive set of queries over the underlying databases, greatly hindering data exploration. The ability to materialize these databases has endless applications, from allowing the data to be effectively mined to providing better response times in Web information integration systems. However, reconstructing these databases through restricted interfaces can be a daunting task, and sometimes infeasible due to network traffic and high latencies from Web servers. In this paper we introduce the problem of generating efficient query covers, i.e., given a restricted query interface, how to efficiently reconstruct a complete image of the underlying database. We propose a solution to the problem of finding covers for spatial queries over databases accessible through nearest-neighbor interfaces. Our algorithm guarantees complete coverage and leads to speedups of over 50 when compared against the naive solution. We use our case-study to illustrate useful guidelines to attack the general coverage problem, and we also discuss practical issues related to materializing Web databases, such as automation of data retrieval and techniques which make it possible to circumvent unfriendly sites, while keeping the anonymity of the person performing the queries.
Radiation sensor based on a floating gate device (2012)

Ionizing radiation sensor based on the nonvolatile floating gate (FG) C-Flash memory is demonstrated. The sensing is based on measuring the threshold voltage (Vt) shift of the modified C-Flash cell pre-charged by electrons or holes. The accumulated absorbed dose is calculated from the Vt shift of the memory cell after the exposure to radiation. The developed sensor is a candidate for embedding into passive RFID radiation measuring systems. It features ultra-low power operation and does not require power supply during the exposure sessions. The feasibility results for stand-alone sensors and 2kbit test arrays are presented and discussed in view of possible applications.
