Genetic Algorithm Applied to Generalized Cell Formation Problems (2010)

The objective of the cellular manufacturing is to simplify the management of the&lt;p&gt;manufacturing industries. In regrouping the production of different parts into clusters,&lt;p&gt;the management of the manufacturing is reduced to manage different small&lt;p&gt;entities. One of the most important problems in the cellular manufacturing is the&lt;p&gt;design of these entities called cells. These cells represent a cluster of machines that&lt;p&gt;can be dedicated to the production of one or several parts. The ideal design of a&lt;p&gt;cellular manufacturing is to make these cells totally independent from one another,&lt;p&gt;i.e. that each part is dedicated to only one cell (i.e. if it can be achieved completely&lt;p&gt;inside this cell). The reality is a little more complex. Once the cells are created,&lt;p&gt;there exists still some traffic between them. This traffic corresponds to a transfer of&lt;p&gt;a part between two machines belonging to different cells. The final objective is to&lt;p&gt;reduce this traffic between the cells (called inter-cellular traffic).&lt;p&gt;Different methods exist to produce these cells and dedicated them to parts. To&lt;p&gt;create independent cells, the choice can be done between different ways to produce&lt;p&gt;each part. Two interdependent problems must be solved:&lt;p&gt;• the allocation of each operation on a machine: each part is defined by one or&lt;p&gt;several sequences of operations and each of them can be achieved by a set of&lt;p&gt;machines. A final sequence of machines must be chosen to produce each part.&lt;p&gt;• the grouping of each machine in cells producing traffic inside and outside the&lt;p&gt;cells.&lt;p&gt;In function of the solution to the first problem, different clusters will be created to&lt;p&gt;minimise the inter-cellular traffic.&lt;p&gt;In this thesis, an original method based on the grouping genetic algorithm (Gga)&lt;p&gt;is proposed to solve simultaneously these two interdependent problems. The efficiency&lt;p&gt;of the method is highlighted compared to the methods based on two integrated algorithms&lt;p&gt;or heuristics. Indeed, to form these cells of machines with the allocation&lt;p&gt;of operations on the machines, the used methods permitting to solve large scale&lt;p&gt;problems are generally composed by two nested algorithms. The main one calls the&lt;p&gt;secondary one to complete the first part of the solution. The application domain goes&lt;p&gt;beyond the manufacturing industry and can for example be applied to the design of&lt;p&gt;the electronic systems as explained in the future research.&lt;p&gt;

Fabrication of Patterned Integrated Electrochemical Sensors (2015)

Fabrication of integrated electrochemical sensors is an important step towards realizing fully integrated and truly wireless platforms for many local, real-time sensing applications. Micro/nanoscale patterning of small area electrochemical sensor surfaces enhances the sensor performance to overcome the limitations resulting from their small surface area and thus is the key to the successful miniaturization of integrated platforms. We have demonstrated the microfabrication of electrochemical sensors utilizing top-down lithography and etching techniques on silicon and CMOS substrates. This choice of fabrication avoids the need of bottom-up techniques that are not compatible with established methods for fabricating electronics (e.g., CMOS) which form the industrial basis of most integrated microsystems. We present the results of applying microfabricated sensors to various measurement problems, with special attention to their use for continuous DNA and glucose sensing. Our results demonstrate the advantages of using micro- and nanofabrication techniques for the miniaturization and optimization of modern sensing platforms that employ well-established electronic measurement techniques.
Strain effects in thin film/Si substrates revealed by X-ray microdiffraction (2004)

The local variation in strain and rotation of the Si substrate due to overlying Ni thin film features has been observed using X-ray microdiffraction. Residual tensile stress in 1 μm thick, 190 μm diameter Ni dots of 990 MPa imparted an average compressive stress in the underlying Si substrate. Ni Kα fluorescence scans, acquired simultaneously with Si (333) diffraction data, allow for a precise determination of the Ni feature edge location relative to the observed shift in Si (333) peak position. Rocking curve mesh scans, in which the sample was translated perpendicular and parallel to the diffraction plane, were used to deconvolute the effects of substrate strain due to d -spacing shifts and rotation of the local Si surface. In addition, shear strains at the dot edge imparted a significant shift in the Si (333) diffraction peak, producing a secondary diffraction peak in modified reciprocal space scans.

Development of a 5-kHz solid state 193-nm actinic light source for photomask metrology and review (2004)

Attaining acceptable yields in the manufacture of advanced photomasks will require higher performance optical metrology tools. Key to improving these tools is the development of new ultraviolet light illumination sources that operate at the actinic wafer exposure wavelength, which is now projected to be 193 nm for the 65 and 45 nm device nodes. The use of an actinic light source for metrology facilitates imaging of photomask phase structures, and ensures that optical path difference measurements and printing simulations are performed in-band and are not subject to off-wavelength accuracy errors. We review the solid-state laser technologies that have been employed to generate 193 nm, and describe the development of a new solid-state 193 nm laser platform tailored specifically for high resolution photomask phase metrology. This source operates at a repetition rate of five-kilohertz, produces 2.5 mW average power with a spectral bandwidth of 10 pm and has excellent mode quality. Additionally, we present high-resolution, 200X-magnification photomask images obtained using this new illumination source.
Internal and Blade Surface Pressure Measurements of Centrifugal Flow Control on a Large Scale Rotor (2017)

A large scale rotor test has been performed to evaluate concepts for improving the high thrust and high speed capabilities of an edgewise single rotor helicopter. The primary approach was to alleviate dynamic stall using centrifugally pumped steady blowing, referred to as Retreating Side Blowing (RSB). This concept was studied earlier for an airfoil with a flow control slot able to generate momentum coefficients of 0.03 to 0.05 using computational simulation and experiment. The current experiment uses a 28 ft diameter rotor having an inlet at the blade root, a hollow spar, and a series of flow control slots from 65% to 95% of the radius. It was tested at the Sikorsky Main Rotor Whirl Stand and at the National Full Scale Aerodynamic Complex. Rotor performance and structural load data were acquired for multiple configurations at advance ratios of 0.24 to 0.61. This paper focuses on the internal pressure measurements used to determine the performance of the centrifugal pumping system in hover and in forward flight, and on the external pressure measurements used to define the effect of the slot blowing on the dynamic stall characteristics. While the centrifugal flow control system generated the expected mass flow, the impact on blade dynamic stall characteristics and rotor performance was less than desired. The rotor results are compared to those from the airfoil test and to prior flow control rotor tests.
Baton: Key Agility for Android without a Centralized Certificate Infrastructure (2013)

Android’s trust-on-first-use application signing model associates developers with a fixed signing key, but lacks a mechanism to transparently update the key or renew their signing certificate. As an advantage, this feature allows application updates to be recognized as authorized by a party with access to the original signing key. Changing keys or certificates requires that end-users manually uninstall/reinstall apps, losing all non-backed up user data. In this paper, we show that with appropriate OS support, developers can securely and without user intervention transfer signing authority to a new signing key. Our proposal, Baton, modifies Android’s app installation framework enabling key agility while preserving backwards compatibility with current apps and current Android releases. Baton is designed to work consistently with current UID sharing and signature permission requirements. We discuss the technical changes made to Android, and remaining open issues such as key loss and signing authority revocation on Android.

A‐80426, a potent α2‐adrenoceptor antagonist with serotonin uptake blocking activity and putative antidepressant‐like effects: I. Biochemical profile (1995)

Abstract A‐80426 ( N ‐[2‐(benzofuran‐6‐yl)ethyl]‐ N ‐[(R)−( + )‐5‐methoxy‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydronaphthalen‐1‐yl methyl]‐ N ‐methylamine) is a novel compound with potential antidepressant activity. A‐80426 inhibits synaptosomal serotonin (5HT) uptake (IC 50 = 13 nM) more potently than fluoxetine (IC 50 = 308 nM), and blocks [ 3 H]‐paroxetine binding (K 1 = 3.8 nM) to 5HT uptake sites. A‐80426 inhibits [ 3 H]‐rauwolscine binding to α 2 ‐adrenoceptors (K 1 = 2.0 nM), blocks α 2 ‐adrenoceptors (pEC 30 = 7.4–7.5) in electrically stimulated rat atria and vas deferens, and increases electrically stimulated [ 3 H]‐NE overflow from brain slices. A‐80426 lacks significant activity at isolated tissue models of α 1 ‐ or β‐adrenergic sites or at M 3 muscarinic or H 1 histaminergic receptors. A‐80426 has negligible radioligand binding activity at 5HT 1 and β‐adrenergic receptors, but exhibits a K 1 value of 144 nM at 5HT 2 receptors. A‐80426 interacts with both dopamine D 1 (K 1 = 744 nM) and D 2 (K 1 = 51.5 nM) receptors. Functionally, the compound antagonizes dopamine‐induced changes in cyclic AMP formation with K 1 values of 133 nM and 185 nM at D 1 and D 2 receptors, respectively. The potent α 2 ‐adrenoceptor blocking activity of A‐80426 in radioligand binding assays is not reflected in isolated tissue bioassays, and may thus have less functional consequence in determining the in vivo profile of the compound. Accompanying behavioral data [Giardina et al., 1995], while indicating activity in the olfactory bulbectomized rat model of antidepressant action, shows a marked reduction in the α 2 ‐antagonistic properties of A‐80426 in other in vivo models, suggesting that the antidepressant‐like activity may be caused primarily by inhibition of 5HT uptake. © 1995 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Synthetic studies utilizing podocarpic acid (1969)

The ketoester, 3-ethoxycarbonyl-12-methoxy-5βH-18,19-bisnor-podocarpa-8,11,13-trien-4-one(80). The numbering used throughout this thesis is that proposed by J.W. Rowe (personal communication to Dr. R. C. Cambie) in 'The Common and Systematic Nomenclature of Cyclic Diterpenes', 3rd Revision, Oct. 1968, to be submitted to the IUPAC Commission on Organic Nomenclature has been prepared from 12-hydroxypodocarpa-8,11,13-trien-19-oic acid (1), via the C4 ketones (76) and (77). Both of these isomers were obtained from the methoxyalkene (11), which was isolated in a pure form during selective epoxidation of the methoxyalkene mixture (11 - 13) obtained from the decarboxylation of 12-methoxypodocarpa-8,11,13-trien-19-oic acid (2) with lead tetraacetate. This reaction has been investigated, and a mechanism accounting for the formation of nondecarboxylation products is proposed. The unsaturated ketoester (102) was prepared in low yield via the saturated C12 ketone (24), obtained from 12-hydroxypodocarpa-8,11,13-trien-19-oic acid (1) by Birch reduction of the aromatic ring. A number of ring A epoxide derivatives of the acid(1) were prepared and cleaved by a variety of reagents to give the 3-oxygenated derivatives (145), (146), and (152), together with compounds possessing a contracted ring A. Some ring B lactone derivatives of the acid (1) were prepared, and their stereochemistry and conformation were determined by n.m.r. spectroscopy. The conformation of some ring B-substituted derivatives was also determined by n.m.r. methods. The bromination of some 7-ketopodocarpa-8,11,13-triene derivatives was investigated, and reasons are advanced for the non-stereospecific reactions observed in some cases.
Dynamically Babinet-invertible metasurface: a capacitive-inductive reconfigurable filter for terahertz waves using vanadium-dioxide metal-insulator transition (2016)

This paper proposes a reconfigurable planar metamaterial that can be switched between capacitive and inductive responses using local changes in the electrical conductivity of its constituent material. The proposed device is based on Babinet's principle and exploits the singular electromagnetic responses of metallic checkerboard structures, which are dependent on the local electrical conductivity. Utilizing the heating-induced metal-insulator transition of vanadium dioxide (VO<sub>2</sub>), the proposed meta-material is designed to compensate for the effect of the substrate and is experimentally characterized in the terahertz regime. This reconfigurable metamaterial can be utilized as a switchable filter and as a switchable phase shifter for terahertz waves.
A MNDO study of planar thioacyl-substituted carbocations (1992)

Relative gas phase stabilities of pairs of planar regioisomeric thioacyl-substituted carbocations have been calculated using the MNDO method. These systems are stabilized by good π donors. The role of S π-electron population as a gauge of substituent effects is examined. Similar results were obtained using isodesmic reactions to gauge substituent effects. Results of this and earlier studies are consistent with the resonance saturation effect. Keywords: semiempirical calculations, carbonium ions.

Throughput aware and green energy aware user association in heterogeneous networks (2017)

Greening information and communications technology is becoming an environmental and economic sine qua non, and has attracted much research attention. For a cellular network, base stations (BSs) incur more than 50% of the energy consumption of the whole network. Therefore, BSs can be powered by green energy to reduce its on-grid power consumption. Meanwhile, the throughput has always been a critical issue in cellular networks. Since the throughput and energy consumption mutually affect each other, saving on-grid power is at the cost of sacrificing a certain amount of throughput. In this paper, we propose a Throughput Aware and Green Energy aware user association (TAGE) scheme in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs) to optimize the trade-off between the throughput and on-grid power consumption. Meanwhile, we employ an energy-throughput coefficient α to control the energy-throughput tradeoff. The simulation results verify that TAGE improves the effective throughput and saves a significant amount of on-grid power for HCNs.
Identification and Quantification of Transformation Products Formed during the Ozonation of the Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Pharmaceuticals Ibuprofen and Diclofenac (2021)

Ibuprofen (IBU) and diclofenac (DCF) are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pharmaceuticals. They are frequently detected in wastewater and in the environment. Due to their harmful effect on aquatic organisms, new methods should be developed to enhance their removal from wastewater. One efficient wastewater treatment process is ozonation. In this study the fate of IBU and DCF during ozonation was investigated. Transformation products were identified with liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to an ion trap mass spectrometer (MS) and a quadrupole time-of-flight MS. Also, gas chromatography – mass spectrometry was used in order to investigate the presence of more volatile transformation products than those detected with LC-MS. Ten different products could be identified for IBU, including four isomers of hydroxylated IBU. Six were conclusively identified with authentic standards. For DCF, 14 different products could be identified of which four were isomers of hydroxylated DCF. Three products were identified with authentic standards. IBU, DCF and the major ozonation products were quantified with LC coupled to a triple quadrupole MS. Both IBU and DCF can be efficiently be transformed via ozonation. Only 20% of IBU is left after 30 min, while 10 min is required to transform DCF to the same extent. The major product formed during the ozonation of IBU was IBU with an additional ketone group, while the major product formed from DCF was 4ʹ-OH-DCF.

The Intermedial Ideals of the Sunday Edition (2022)

Sunday papers regularly illustrated features about their own printing and circulation. Presented as a modern spectacle, the story of delivering the paper was supported by a complex system of circulation. The high-speed cylinder printing press was an assembly line for mass reproduction. Pulitzer's New York World pressroom had a viewing gallery for all to see the paper in production, an important parallel to its slogan, “circulation books open to all.” Other papers followed suit. Mass delivery was likewise profiled with sensational self-promotion, although the semblance of local competition over circulation masked tight monopoly control in distribution. The American News Company had a throttle on national newspaper circulation, controlling many urban carrier routes, sales aboard trains, and wholesale distribution of out-of-town papers, books and magazines. City delivery relied on fleets of wagons and trucks; the regional fast train delivered Sunday papers beyond city limits. But newsboys were the public face of these continental networks of circulation. Despite newsboys' sentimental favor, the push for technologies led to coin-operated news boxes, at first called “automatic newsboys.” The fascination with newspaper delivery reminded readers that getting physical copies of the paper into their homes required conquering the limits of time and space.
