Enabling Bi-directional Haptic Control in Next Generation Communication Systems: Research, Standards, and Vision (2021)

Human multi-modality information such as audio (hearing) and visual (sight) or a combination thereof audiovisual are transferred over communication networks. Yet interacting sense of touch (haptic) and particularly the kinaesthetic (muscular movement) component has much stricter end-to-end latency communication requirements between tactile user ends. The statements in this paper, to enable bi-directional haptic control, indeed follow the widely accepted understanding that edge computing is one of the key drivers behind Tactile Internet aiming to bring control and user plane services closer to where they are needed. However, with an updated wider analysis of (pre)standardisation activities that are chartered around Tactile Internet, this paper highlights the technology gaps and recommends open research topics in this area.
Validation of differential light emission analysis on FPGA (2009)

Failure analysis tools and methods can be used for security purposes as well as the security attack techniques can be used in failure analysis. In this paper, we describe the last results obtained concerning light emission techniques and their use to set up a side channel methodology. From a cryptanalyst standpoint, the light emission could be a potential source of leakage. When studying a specific cipher algorithm implemented in a device, by analysing this new kind of leakage it is possible to retrieve secret sensitive data. We made our analyses on an FPGA device, which makes the attack harder to perform than on a standard ASIC. Furthermore, the technique was validated on a device in 0.13 ¿m technology, resulting in a more complex sample preparation from backside. We will show that, the leakage due to the light emitted during normal operation of a CMOS circuit, can be used to set up an attack based on the well-known DPA technique.
Gusset Plate Connections to Circular Hollow Section Braces under Inelastic Cyclic Loading (2008)

Braces are commonly used to provide lateral stiffness and strength to steel framed buildings subjected to wind or earthquake loading. Of the structural sections that can be employed as brace members, hollow structural sections represent a very good solution due to their excellent structural properties in compression. Nevertheless, their use has been hitherto compromised for seismic applications mainly due to a lack of simplified connection details that avoid brittle failures. At present, slotted hollow structural section connections are popular in seismic zones but the hollow section is typically reinforced with steel cover plates to increase the net area at the critical location to avoid premature fracture under tension loading cycles. This reinforcing practice can likely be avoided, for circular hollow sections, if both the tube and the plate are slotted in such a manner that the weld terminates at the tube gross cross section. The potential of this innovative detail is demonstrated by means of three large-scale specimen tests under pseudodynamic loading.
Non-Invasive Cell Tracking with Brighter and Red-Transferred Luciferase for Potential Application in Stem Cell Therapy (2019)

This study investigated the safety of a novel cell-labeling technology with mKATE and <i>Renilla reniformis</i> luciferase (mKATE-renLUC) and assessed the efficacy on tracking implanted human placental stromal cells (PSC) in an erectile dysfunction (ED) animal model. Human PSC were labeled with mKATE-renLUC using a lentivirus. Cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation, migration, surface marker expression and differentiation potential of the labeled PSC were evaluated and compared with non-labeled PSC. The paracrine profile of labeled cells was examined using an angiogenesis protein array. The brightness and duration of labeled cells with different densities were evaluated. An ED rat model was established and labeled PSC were injected into cavernosal tissue of the penis. The migration and distribution of transplanted PSC were monitored using an IVIS imaging system in real time. Implanted PSC were identified in isolated tissues via detection of mKATE fluorescence. The cell viability, morphology, proliferation, migration, surface marker expression and differentiation potential of mKATE-renLUC-labeled PSC were similar to those of non-labeled cells in vitro (no statistical difference <i>p</i>>0.05). Similar expressions of trophic factors were found between labeled and non-labeled PSC. The migration and distribution of PSC expressing renLUC were tracked in vivo using IVIS imaging system. mKATE-positive PSC were detected in penile, kidney, prostate and hepatic tissues using histological methods. This labeling technology provides a safe and effective cell-tracking approach with a brighter fluorophore and codon-optimized luciferase.

Unexpected Direct Synthesis of Tunable Redox-Active Benzil-Linked Polymers via the Benzoin Reaction (2022)

New strategies for the sustainable synthesis of redox-active organic polymers could lead to next-generation organic electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage, electrocatalysis, and electro-swing chemical separations. Among redox-active moieties, benzils or aromatic 1,2-diones are particularly attractive due to their high theoretical gravimetric capacities and fast charge/discharge rates. Herein, we demonstrate that the cyanide-catalyzed polymerization of simple dialdehyde mon-omers unexpectedly leads to insoluble redox-active benzil-linked polymers instead of the expected benzoin polymers, as confirmed by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and electrochemical characterization. Mechanistic stud-ies suggest that cyanide-mediated benzoin oxidation occurs by hydride transfer to the solvent, and that the insolubility of the benzil-linked polymers protects them from subsequent cyanolysis. The thiophene-based polymer poly(BTDA) is an in-triguing organic electrode material that demonstrates two reversible one-electron reductions with monovalent cations such as Li+ and Na+ but one two-electron reduction with divalent Mg2+. Furthermore, in lithium metal half cells, poly(BTDA) pos-seses an experimental capacity of 106 mAh/g and promising rate capabilities (64% capacity retention when the discharge rate is increased from 0.1 to 10 A/g). As such, the tandem benzoin-oxidation polymerization reported herein represents a sustainable method for the synthesis of highly tunable and redox-active organic materials.
Lithographically fabricated optical cavities for refractive index sensing (2005)

Since the development of distributed Bragg gratings, high resolution lithography and etching have been applied towards the concentration of light. The most important application of lithographically fabricated microcavities has been for the spectral control over laser emission. Here we describe the opportunities that arise from further miniaturization of laser cavities by using high index contrast photonic crystal mirrors and annular Bragg reflectors. We have used these optical cavities, with mode volumes as small as 10−17l, to perform spectroscopic analysis and compare the mode volumes and sensitivities of these geometries.

Short-term changes in intracellular ROS localisation after the silver nanoparticles exposure depending on particle size (2015)

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis. These effects are enhanced by smaller particles. Using live-cell imaging, we show that AgNPs induced ROS production rapidly in a size-dependent manner after exposure of cells to 70-nm and 1-nm AgNPs (AgNPs-70, AgNPs-1), but not AgNO<sub>3</sub>. Exposure of cells to 5 μg/mL each of AgNPs-70, AgNPs-1 or AgNO<sub>3</sub> for 1 h decreased the cell viability by approximately 40%, 100% and 20%, respectively. ROS were rapidly induced after 5 and 60 min by AgNPs-1 and AgNPs-70, respectively, whereas AgNO<sub>3</sub> had no detectable effect. ROS production detected using the reporter dichlorodihydrofluorescein was observed in whole cells and mitochondria 5 and 60 min after exposure to AgNPs-1. The present study is the first, to our knowledge, to report the temporal expression and intracellular localisation of ROS induced by AgNPs.
Design and control of an 8-slot radial flux magnetic bearing (2014)

This work presents the design and control of an 8-slot radial flux magnetic bearing. Design of magnetic bearing is carried out with coupled magnetic equivalent circuit model and finite element analysis (FEA). The magnetic design is verified with 2D FEA and good agreement between the two is obtained. Designed magnetic bearing is assembled into a system and fuzzy logic control is applied to the magnetic bearings to adjust the currents in order to balance the system shaft. The control is performed at the equilibrium position under different disturbances and detailed information about the working space of the designed magnetic bearings is provided.
Nucleoside salvage pathway for NAD biosynthesis in Salmonella typhimurium (1982)

A previously undescribed nucleoside salvage pathway for NAD biosynthesis is defined in Salmonella typhimurium. Since neither nicotinamide nor nicotinic acid is an intermediate in this pathway, this second pyridine nucleotide salvage pathway is distinct from the classical Preiss-Handler pathway. The evidence indicates that the pathway is from nicotinamide ribonucleoside to nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) and then to nicotinic acid mononucleotide, followed by nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide and NAD. The utilization of exogenous NMN for NAD biosynthesis has been reexamined, and in vivo evidence is provided that the intact NMN molecule traverses the membrane.
Design of a high performance PD SOI for the 0.18 μm technology generation (2002)

This paper presents an optimized partially-depleted SOI device design for the 0.18 /spl mu/m CMOS technology generation and addresses several SOI unique floating-body effect issues which can affect the design. It is demonstrated that through proper device optimization, these undesired SOI-specific issues can be minimized to improve the manufacturability while maintaining high performance. Inverter delays of 5.1/4.7 ps at 1.5/1.8 V are achieved at low temperature. At room temperature, a delay of 12 ps is achieved at only 0.8 V supply voltage.
Leveraging temporal correlation for limited feedback multiple antennas systems (2010)

This paper concerns a simple limited feedback scheme taking temporal correlation into account during the feedback design in slow fading environment. In this method, the transmitter and the receiver reuse the past channel state information (CSI) as side information. Feedback, that is designed to leverage the side information, is sent from the receiver to the transmitter using a predetermined update period. The feedback update period is determined by characterizing the temporal correlation statistic, so that the proposed feedback reuse scheme outperforms a feedback scheme that does not adapt to the temporal correlation. To measure the performance, average effective SNR loss is used. Bounds on the feedback update period and the amount of feedback needed are derived. Simulation results show a reduction in the required average feedback overhead and a performance improvement when comparing the proposed scheme with prior feedback approaches.

Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry proved to be a valuable method to study the thermodynamics of ionic liquids. The saturated vapor pressure and vaporization enthalpy of [C3MMIM(+)][Tf2N(-)] were accurately determined for the first time. MALDI is also capable of providing indirect information on hydrogen bonding.
Wheel Bearing Fault Isolation and Prognosis Using Acoustic Based Approach (2019)

Wheel bearing fault detection, isolation and failure prognosis are critical to improve perceived quality and customer experience for retail vehicles, and to reduce the repair cost and down time for fleet vehicles. Currently, most of the research in bearing failure and degradation diagnosis focus on vibration signal analytics. However, these techniques are rarely applied in automotive industry due to the high sensor cost, installation space limitation, and limited communication bandwidth. In this work, an acoustic based approach for wheel bearing fault detection and isolation is developed to overcome these limitations. Since the bearing noise is a precursor of bearing failure, the proposed method is a prognosis solution. The whole solution is verified using the data collected from a production vehicle. The results show that the proposed method can predict the wheel bearing failure with promising accuracy and robustness.
The challenge of assessing infant vaccine responses in resource-poor settings (2010)

Newborns and infants are highly susceptible to infectious diseases, resulting in high mortality and morbidity, particularly in resource-poor settings. Many vaccines require several booster doses, resulting in an extensive vaccine schedule, and yet there is still inadequate protection from some of these diseases. This is partly due to the immaturity of the neonate and infant immune system. Little is known about the specific modifications to immunological assessment protocols in early life but increasing knowledge of infant immunology has helped provide better recommendations for assessing these responses. Since most new vaccines will eventually be deployed in low-income settings such as Africa, the logistics and resources of assessing immunity in such settings also need to be understood. In this article, we will review immunity to vaccines in early life, discuss the many challenges associated with assessing immunogenicity and provide practical tips.
Large Emission Power over 2 µW with HighQFactor Obtained from Nanocontact Magnetic-Tunnel-Junction-Based Spin Torque Oscillator (2013)

We have developed a new type of nanocontact structure called a "sombrero-shaped" nano-contact for a spin torque oscillator (STO) based on magnetic tunnel junctions. This structure reduces the shunt current, which passes through the capping layer, and hence improves the magnetoresistance (MR) ratio to 46% compared with an MR ratio of 3% in conventional nano-contact structures. It also displays highly stable oscillation (Q=350) with high emission power over 2 µW. This is significant in the development of new spintronic devices such as nanosized microwave generators and highly sensitive nanoscale magnetic field sensors.
Neuromodulatory Activities of CD4+CD25+ Regulatory T Cells in a Murine Model of HIV-1-Associated Neurodegeneration (2009)

HIV-1-associated neurocognitive impairments are intrinsically linked to microglial immune activation, persistent viral infection, and inflammation. In the era of antiretroviral therapy, more subtle cognitive impairments occur without adaptive immune compromise. We posit that adaptive immunity is neuroprotective, serving in both the elimination of infected cells through CD8(+) cytotoxic T cell activities and the regulation of neuroinflammatory responses of activated microglia. For the latter, little is known. Thus, we studied the neuromodulatory effects of CD4(+) regulatory T cells (Treg; CD4(+)CD25(+)) or effector T cells in HIV-1-associated neurodegeneration. A newly developed HIV-1 encephalitis mouse model was used wherein murine bone marrow-derived macrophages are infected with a full-length HIV-1(YU2)/vesicular stomatitis viral pseudotype and injected into basal ganglia of syngeneic immunocompetent mice. Adoptive transfer of CD3-activated Treg attenuated astrogliosis and microglia inflammation with concomitant neuroprotection. Moreover, Treg-mediated anti-inflammatory activities and neuroprotection were associated with up-regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor expression and down-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress, and viral replication. Effector T cells showed contrary effects. These results, taken together, demonstrate the importance of Treg in disease control and raise the possibility of their utility for therapeutic strategies.

Promoter CpG Island Methylation Markers in Colorectal Cancer: The Road Ahead (2012)

Despite increasing knowledge on the biology, detection and treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), the disease is still a major health problem. Hypermethylation of promoter regions of genes has been studied extensively as a contributor in CRC carcinogenesis. In addition, it is the topic of many studies focusing on biomarkers for the early detection, prediction of prognosis and treatment outcome. Methylation markers may be preferred over current screening and test methods as they are stable and easy to detect. However, almost no methylation marker is currently being used in clinical practice, often due to a lack of sensitivity, specificity, or validation of the results. This review summarizes the current knowledge of hypermethylation biomarkers for CRC detection, progression and treatment outcome.
Evaluation of extendibility for Fourier diffraction theory for topographical mask structure under hyper NA lithography (2005)

Recent progress of immersion lithography technique could realize to apply hyper NA condition for real IC device manufacturing. Under the hyper NA lithography, we have to face the paradigm shift from scalar treatment to vector consideration in the region of modeling everywhere. In the historical view points, vector lithographic imaging model was introduced in 1986<sup>1</sup>, and the beginning of 90’s, various evaluation works were reported in the field. And the research or evaluation of topographical mask effects were also focused and concentrated the same era using rigorous electromagnetic simulations<sup>2-4</sup>. But as for the “oblique illumination effects” at a reticle side, much concerns had not been paid about them. It was because the relaxation of incident angle due to magnification factor (4X or 5X), using small &sigma; for alternating phase-shifting mask, and higher NA seemed to work worse as for decreasing DOF. Since the immersion lithography technique would be considered as “effective reduction of exposure wavelength by factor of the refraction index of immersion material” and superior DOF characteristics to the dry case, development of increasing exposure tool’s NA beyond 1.0 have been accelerated. In such a hyper NA region, we have to consider about the “oblique illumination effects” once again for various fields, such as combining to the model-based OPC application and so on. In this paper, 1<sup>st</sup> order approximation model is suggested and evaluated how much degree of influence of the oblique illumination effects should be taken care of, and how large area could be covered using this model. The former results denoted that around 10% of target CD might be varied in the case of hyper NA condition. But from the latter results, we did not sufficient validity for this model, so some additional approximation should be considered to improve the prediction accuracy.

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for I-Vector Speaker Recognition (2014)

In this paper, we present a framework for unsupervised domain adaptation of PLDA based i-vector speaker recognition systems.Given an existing out-of-domain PLDA system, we use it to cluster unlabeled in-domain data, and then use this data to adapt the parameters of the PLDA system.We explore two versions of agglomerative hierarchical clustering that use the PLDA system.We also study two automatic ways to determine the number of clusters in the in-domain dataset.The proposed techniques are experimentally validated in the recently introduced domain adaptation challenge.This challenge provides a very useful setup to explore domain adaptation since it illustrates a significant performance gap between an in-domain and out-of-domain system.Using agglomerative hierarchical clustering with a stopping criterion based on unsupervised calibration we are able to recover 85% of this gap.
Radical Prostatectomy in Stage a Prostatic Adenocarcinoma (1988)

A total of 76 patients (18 with stage A1 and 58 with stage A2 cancer) underwent radical perineal prostatectomy. No perioperative deaths occurred and no patient suffered rectal injury or was incontinent postoperatively. Five patients (3 with stage A1 and 2 with stage A2 disease) had negative surgical specimens, while 6 (4 with stage A1 and 2 with stage A2 cancer) had a single microscopic focus in the radical prostatectomy specimen. Outcome was assessed by first evidence of disease recurrence as a function of the Gleason sum and the local anatomical extent of disease. Of 41 patients 4 (9.7 per cent) with organ-confined disease failed at 2.5, 2.6, 4.3 and 11.9 years. None of 11 patients with specimen-confined disease failed, and 6 of 24 (25 per cent) with positive margins failed at 0.9, 1.2, 2.1, 3.1, 3.2 and 8.0 years. Radiation after an operation for margin-positive disease did not seem to alter the incidence of failure. The distribution frequency of the Gleason sum was noted to shift to a higher total sum as the extent of local disease increased. Kaplan-Meier analysis of the failure rate of patients with organ-confined and organ-nonconfined disease with a Gleason sum of 7 or less versus greater than 7 demonstrated an advantage for those with a sum of 7 or less (p less than or equal to 0.018).
