Enhanced Efficiency Parameters of Solution‐Processable Small‐Molecule Solar Cells Depending on ITO Sheet Resistance (2013)

Enhanced efficiency parameters of solution-processable small-molecule bulk-heterojunction solar cells are successfully achieved using ITO substrate with a sheet resistance of 5 Ω/□. The PCE of the device with a 5 Ω/□-ITO shows 8.24% with enhanced JSC of 14.74 mA/cm2, and fill factor of 72.4%. Furthermore, the PCE and FF values are optimized and reproducible due to an improved shunt resistance and a reduced series resistance of the small molecule solar cells.
Colored trails: a multiagent system testbed for decision-making research (2008)

With increasing frequency, computer agents participate in collaborative and competitive multiagent domains in which humans reason strategically to make decisions. The deployment of computer agents in such domains requires that the agents understand something about human behavior so that they can interact successfully with people; the computer agents must be sensitive to how people reason in strategic settings as well as to the social utilities people employ to inform their reasoning. To date, these design requirements for computer agents have received relatively little attention. To further research in this area, we are developing the Colored Trails (CT) testbed [5], a configurable and extensible open-source system for use by the research community at large to investigate multiagent decision making.
On Predicting Quenched and Tempered Hardness of Mixed Microstructures using Steel Chemistry (2017)

Abstract A method of predicting tempered hardness of mixed microstructures has been formulated, which uses the quenched hardness and steel chemistry as independent variables. This calculation is based upon a method first proposed in 1947 by Crafts and Lamont for mixed microstructures and modified using the 1977 chemistry-based, tempered martensite hardness calculation of Grange, Hribal, and Porter. Tempered hardness predictions were examined using Jominy end-quench bars tempered between 204°C (400°F) and 649°C (1200°F). The measured Jominy hardness after tempering was used to make adjustments to the Crafts and Lamont parameters used in the hybrid model. Both plain carbon (SAE 1045) and low alloy (SAE grades 8620, 4130, 4142, and 5160) were used to evaluate the chemistry-based hardness prediction. In combination with a ASTM A255 Jominy hardenability calculation, the proposed calculation can be used to predict the quenched and tempered hardness profile of a round bar based upon chemistry, quench severity, and tempering temperature.
The Road to Improving the Performance of Satisfiability Solvers Using HPC (2007)

Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solvers have become an enabling technology for diverse application areas of military and commercial interest. A Phase II Small Business Innovation Research project under the architectures for cognitive information processing (ACIP) program has developed novel problem representations, algorithms, and heuristics to improve SAT solver performance over existing approaches. Reservoir Labs has parallelized a SAT solver for the Cray XD1, writing fine grained messaging layers over Message Passing Interface (MPI). The solver is written in a message-driven computing style. We partition the problem over the nodes of the XD1 to achieve concurrency in the propagation of implications. We have facilities to partition the clause database over the nodes to improve locality of reference. A tool, Salt, can translate a high level logic language into SAT problem instances and transmit partition and heuristic information into the solver. We report on the current capability and performance of the solver, and in particular the tradeoff between locality and concurrency in our system. Finally, we point to the forward roadmap to achieving greater performance on this problem.

Automated identification of leukocyte subsets improves standardization of database-guided expert-supervised diagnostic orientation in acute leukemia: a EuroFlow study (2020)

Precise classification of acute leukemia (AL) is crucial for adequate treatment. EuroFlow has previously designed an AL orientation tube (ALOT) to guide toward the relevant classification panel and final diagnosis. In this study, we designed and validated an algorithm for automated (database-supported) gating and identification (AGI tool) of cell subsets within samples stained with ALOT. A reference database of normal peripheral blood (PB, n = 41) and bone marrow (BM; n = 45) samples analyzed with the ALOT was constructed, and served as a reference for the AGI tool to automatically identify normal cells. Populations not unequivocally identified as normal cells were labeled as checks and were classified by an expert. Additional normal BM (n = 25) and PB (n = 43) and leukemic samples (n = 109), analyzed in parallel by experts and the AGI tool, were used to evaluate the AGI tool. Analysis of normal PB and BM samples showed low percentages of checks (<3% in PB, <10% in BM), with variations between different laboratories. Manual analysis and AGI analysis of normal and leukemic samples showed high levels of correlation between cell numbers (r<sup>2</sup> > 0.95 for all cell types in PB and r<sup>2</sup> > 0.75 in BM) and resulted in highly concordant classification of leukemic cells by our previously published automated database-guided expert-supervised orientation tool for immunophenotypic diagnosis and classification of acute leukemia (Compass tool). Similar data were obtained using alternative, commercially available tubes, confirming the robustness of the developed tools. The AGI tool represents an innovative step in minimizing human intervention and requirements in expertise, toward a "sample-in and result-out" approach which may result in more objective and reproducible data analysis and diagnostics. The AGI tool may improve quality of immunophenotyping in individual laboratories, since high percentages of checks in normal samples are an alert on the quality of the internal procedures.
Graceful Performance Adaption through Hardware-Software Interaction for Autonomous Battery Management of Multicore Smartphones (2018)

Despite advances in multicore smartphone technologies, battery consumption still remains one of customer's least satisfying features. This is because existing energy saving techniques do not consider the electrochemical characteristics of batteries, which causes battery consumption to vary unpredictably, both within and across applications. Additionally, these techniques provide application specific fixed performance degradation in order to reduce energy consumption. Having a performance penalty, even when a battery is fully charged, adds to customer dissatisfaction. We propose a control-based approach for runtime power management of multicore smartphones, which scales the frequency of processing cores in response to the battery consumption, taking into account the electrochemical characteristics of a battery. The objective is to enable graceful performance modulation, which adapts with application and battery availability in a predictable manner, improving quality-of-user-experience. Our control approach is practically demonstrated on embedded Linux running on Cortex A15-based smartphone development platform from nvidia. A thorough validation with mobile and Java workloads demonstrate 2.9× improvement in battery availability compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
Intraoperative Clinical Decision Support for Anesthesia: A Narrative Review of Available Systems (2016)

With increasing adoption of anesthesia information management systems (AIMS), there is growing interest in utilizing AIMS data for intraoperative clinical decision support (CDS). CDS for anesthesia has the potential for improving quality of care, patient safety, billing, and compliance. Intraoperative CDS can range from passive and post hoc systems to active real-time systems that can detect ongoing clinical issues and deviations from best practice care. Real-time CDS holds the most promise because real-time alerts and guidance can drive provider behavior toward evidence-based standardized care during the ongoing case. In this review, we describe the different types of intraoperative CDS systems with specific emphasis on real-time systems. The technical considerations in developing and implementing real-time CDS are systematically covered. This includes the functional modules of a CDS system, development and execution of decision rules, and modalities to alert anesthesia providers concerning clinical issues. We also describe the regulatory aspects that affect development, implementation, and use of intraoperative CDS. Methods and measures to assess the effectiveness of intraoperative CDS are discussed. Last, we outline areas of future development of intraoperative CDS, particularly the possibility of providing predictive and prescriptive decision support.
Graphics processing unit based acceleration of electromagnetic transients simulation (2016)

This paper presents a novel parallelization approach to speedup EMT simulation, using GPU-based computing. This paper extends earlier published works in the area, by exploiting additional parallelism to accelerate EMT simulation. A 2D-parallel matrix-vector multiplication is used that is faster than previous 1D-methods. Also this paper implements a simpler GPU-specific sparsity technique to further speed up the simulations as available CPU-based sparse techniques are not suitable for GPUs. Additionally, as an extension to previous works, this paper demonstrates modelling of a power electronic subsystem. A low granularity system, i.e. one with a large cluster of busses connected to others with a few transmission lines is considered, as is also a high granularity where a small cluster of busses is connected to other clusters thereby requiring more interconnecting transmission lines. Computation times for GPU-based computing are compared with the computation times for sequential implementations on the CPU. The paper shows two surprising differences of GPU simulation in comparison with CPU simulation. Firstly, the inclusion of sparsity only makes minor reductions in the GPU-based simulation time. Secondly excessive granularity, even though it appears to increase the number of parallel computable subsystems, significantly slows down the GPU-based simulation.
Physical and logical validation of a network based on all-optical packet switching systems (1998)

The large growth of telecommunication traffic demand generated by multiple new applications and expected to last at least for the next decade will force telecom operators to consider offering more flexible transport services. All-optical packet switching is a powerful technique to provide this flexibility and to support in a cost-efficient way a wide range of bandwidth consuming applications. After a very brief introduction about the packet-switched network architecture studied in the framework of the ACTS KEOPS project, we describe the structure of the packet-switching node we have defined. We then move into physical and logical analysis of the network including more than 40 network sections based on 160 Gb/s throughput optical packet switching nodes could operate error free. In addition, logical simulations have proved that such networks could provide a quality of service (packet loss rate and packet transfer delay per node) compatible with a large variety of service classes. Both results validate the feasibility of the network concept and pace the way toward a flexible network based on all-optical switching techniques.
Predictive value of preoperative monocyte–lymphocyte ratio among patients with localized clear renal cell carcinoma of ≤7 cm on preoperative imaging (2018)

We investigated the prognostic ability of preoperative monocyte-lymphocyte ratio for oncologic outcomes in non-metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma of ≤7 cm on preoperative computed tomography (CT).We retrospectively reviewed 1637 patients who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy for solid renal masses ≤7 cm (2005-2014). We included 1137 patients after exclusion of benign pathology, non-clear cell, morbidity affecting inflammatory markers, metastasis, regional lymphadenopathy, positive margin, and follow up <12 months. According to cutoff values of 0.21, we had high ≥0.21 and low <0.21 preoperative monocyte-lymphocyte ratio groups. Mann-Whitney U and chi-squared tests were used for continuous and Dichotomous variables. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to predict factors affecting recurrence and survival. Kaplan-Meier curve was used for survival analysis.At a median age of 56 years with a median follow up of 65 months, 51 patients had a recurrence (4.5%). There were no statistical differences between the high and low monocyte-lymphocyte ratio groups as regard the pathological characters (P > .005). Monocyte-lymphocyte ratio was a predictor for recurrence-free and cancer-specific survivals (hazard risk [HR] 2.17, P = .012 and HR 4.06, P = .004, respectively). A higher monocyte-lymphocyte ratio was significantly associated with worse, both 10-year recurrence-free (90.2% vs 94.9%) and cancer-specific survival (89.5% vs 98.8%) (Log-rank, P = .002 and P < .001, respectively).The preoperative monocyte-lymphocyte ratio is an independent prognostic marker for recurrence-free and cancer-specific survivals after curative surgery for non-metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma of ≤7 cm on preoperative CT.
Photonic Crystal Kinase Biosensor (2014)

We have developed a novel biosensor for kinases that is based on a kinase-responsive polymer hydrogel, which enables label-free screening of kinase activity via changes in optical properties. The hydrogel is specifically designed to swell reversibly upon phosphorylation of a target peptide, triggering a change in optical diffraction from a crystalline colloidal array of particles impregnated into the hydrogel. Diffraction measurements, and charge staining, confirmed the responsive nature of the hydrogel. Moreover, the change in diffraction of the hydrogel upon treatment with kinase exhibited a time- and dose-dependent response. A theoretical model for ionic polymer networks describes the observed optical response well and can be used to quantify the extent of phosphorylation.

Absolute frequency measurement of wavelength standard at 1542nm: acetylene stabilized DFB laser (2005)

The frequency of a wavelength standard at 1542 nm (194 THz) developed in CMI for the telecommunication band C was measured with a fiber femtosecond frequency comb. The measurement was done for three transitions of acety(13)C(2)H(2): P(14), P(15) and P(16). The results agree well with values in the recommendation for Practical realization of the definition of the metre [1] and even better with recent measurements made in NMIJ/AIST [2,3] - the differences are lower than 2 kHz (or 1x10-(-11) rel.) for all three transitions. This agreement is significant considering the fact that the CMI laser uses an extremely simple spectroscopic arrangement and substantially lower saturation power.
Effects of Bloch's hydrodynamic model on surface plasmon polariton dispersion curve and enhanced transmission of light through single nano-apertures (2009)

We have studied the surface plasmon theory with Bloch's hydrodynamic model. The results of the analysis done by Bloch model have been compared with the ones done with Drude model and the dominant differences between two models in valid frequency range have been shown. The transmittance of the slit embedded in a metal layer has been investigated by these models and the differences have been emphasized. An electron density dependent parameter defined by Bloch model has been used to control the transmission behavior of the light through nano-apertures. A system consisting of a nano-slit formed in a metal layer with a periodically textured surface used for beam focusing has been introduced and how the focusing capacity of the system is controlled by the parameter defined by Bloch model has been shown.
Mitigation of Local Grid Congestion Due to Electric Vehicles Through Localized Demand Control (2018)

The growth of electric vehicle (EV) adoption is inevitable as the transport sector moves away from petrol-based cars to achieve emission reduction targets and promote energy sustainability. Since EVs can make potentially large power demands, the increasing rate of adoption creates challenges for the grid in terms of overloading and congestion. This study explores a smart grid solution to these impending issues through Localized Demand Control (LDC). The effectiveness of LDC is simulated in various cases of end-user participation and EV penetration. Recommended LDC participation rates are established for each EV adoption rate to avoid grid congestion without compromising the end-user's comfort. Based on simulations, the local grid can be fully resilient against congestion issues, even at 100% EV adoption, if there is at least 40% LDC participation rate.
The impact of hydrogen plasma on the structure and morphology of tin and lead micrometer sized particles (2023)

Abstract The stability of micrometer sized particles in hydrogen plasma is essential for extreme ultraviolet lithography, the ITER fusion program and the application of hydrogen plasma etching. We experimentally investigated the morphological evolution of tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and lead (II) oxide (PbO) micrometer sized particles on a surface that is exposed to a low pressure hydrogen plasma. Post exposure particle cross sections obtained by a scanning electron microscope accompanied by a focused ion beam demonstrated a significant influence of hydrogen plasma exposure on both the surface and the bulk material of the particles. Chemical sputtering at the surface and accumulation of pressurized hydrogen bubbles in cavities in the bulk material are the main drivers of the morphological changes. These mechanisms may influence the adhesion of particles to the surface through the introduction of asperities, increase of contact spot area, or fragmentation after the accumulation of mechanical stress.

Rubbing the skin when removing makeup cosmetics is a major factor that worsens skin conditions in atopic dermatitis patients (2020)

These results suggest that many AD patients cleanse their face with hard rubbing of their skin because of the low cleansing ability of their skin cleansers and may worsen their AD skin symptoms without realizing it.
HC quench layer formation in combustion processes. Technical progress report, January-April 1980 (1980)

The project is aimed at understanding wall quenching and other processes responsible for surface generated hydrocarbons in combustion under engine-like conditions. The study concerns the effects of turbulence on the evolution of hydrocarbons. At the conclusion of the program, significant new experimental information will have been generated and an analytical model of the fluid mechanics and some aspects of the chemistry of quenching will be formulated. The work is divided into three tasks: (1) combustion bomb experiments to measure the effect of turbulence on the chemical species near the cold surface; (2) combustion bomb experiments using a similar turbulence generating device, to fully characterize the flow and turbulence in the vicinity of the quenching surface; and (3) an analytical study to characterize fluid mechanical scales of interest in the boundary layer and to find an analytical solution to describe the evolution of the layer. Significant areas of progress during the reporting period are: (1) the sampling valve data obtained previously in the Ford spherical bomb under quiescent firing conditions have been analyzed and interpreted; (2) the solenoid-operated charging system has been set up to generate turbulence in the bomb, and the inlet flow has been characterized in terms of pressure, velocity, turbulence, and temperature histories; and (3) an analysis leading to a simplified model for the turbulent quench layer has been obtained.
