5G New Radio User Equipment Power Modeling and Potential Energy Savings (2019)

Currently the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) is studying how user equipment power saving can be improved for the fifth generation New Radio technology. To accomplish this objective, a power model has been developed for evaluation of power saving schemes related to Radio Resource Management in Radio Resource Control (RRC) Connected mode among other topics. In this work, we examine the power saving potential in RRC Connected mode using a single-user numerical simulation tool employing the user equipment power model. We demonstrate that the use of short Discontinuous Reception (DRX) can provide 26 % energy saving and 74 % latency reduction as compared to the long DRX-only baseline. Furthermore, the simulation results, based on the user equipment power model, show that four Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) optimization monitoring schemes: cross-slot scheduling, reduced blind PDCCH decoding candidate set, wake-up signaling and go-to-sleep signaling, may further reduce the energy consumption 17-20 % at the cost of a latency increase and potentially lower overall network performance.
A simple joint beamforming and power control algorithm for multi-user MIMO wireless networks (2005)

We consider the joint optimization of transmitted power, receive and transmit beamforming vectors for multi-user MIMO wireless networks. Specifically, they are optimized such that the total transmit power is minimized while satisfying SINR requirements of all links. We first analytically show that maximum ratio transmission (MRT) beamforming is asymptotically optimal for the low SINR region and the corresponding optimal transmit power vector is element-wise minimal. We then propose a simple joint optimization algorithm tailored for cellular downlinks by exploiting network duality, which is applicable over a wide range of SINR. The proposed algorithm can be readily implemented in a distributed fashion since it requires only local adaptive beamforming at the receivers, a simple power control loop, and minimal feedback of the channel state information. Also, the algorithm achieves a performance close to that of centralized iterative optimization algorithms, and outperforms other decentralized approaches that have been previously proposed.
Light Emitting Silicon Nanowires for Photonic Device Applications (2006)

Si nanowires grown from TiSi <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> catalysts exhibit near-infrared photoluminescence (PL) from quantum-confined excitons in the Si. Temperature dependent studies highlight the differences between Si nanocrystals and nanowires, which allow for exciton diffusion
Adhesion improvement in glass fiber reinforced polyethylene composite via admicellar polymerization (2003)

Abstract Admicellar polymerization (polymerization of monomer solubilized in adsorbed surfactant bilayers) has been used to form a thin film of polyethylene onto the surface of milled glass fibers using sodium dodecyl sulfate as the surfactant. The decrease in ethylene pressure was used to follow the solubilization and adsolubilization processes as well as the reaction processes. An increase in initiator (Na 2 S 2 O 8 ) to surfactant ratio gave thicker and more uniform coatings of polymer onto the glass fiber surface according to SEM micrographs. Although a substantial amount of ethylene polymerized in solution according to the pressure drop, the decrease in pressure attributed to admicelle polymerization corresponded to the amount of polymer formed on the glass fiber, indicating little, if any, solution polymer deposited on the fibers. The admicellar‐treated glass fiber was used to make composites with high‐density polyethylene. The composites showed an increase in tensile and flexural strength over composites made from as‐received glass fiber, indicating an improvement in the fiber‐matrix adhesion of the admicellar‐treated glass fiber.
Local Governments in Rural West Bengal, India and their Coordination with Line Departments (1970)

In India, the 73rd constitutional amendment of 1992 decentralises agriculture, irrigation, health, education along with 23 other items to the Panchayats, the village level self-government body. It is envisaged that the three-tier Panchayat system at the District, Block and the Village level would coordinate with different ‘line departments’ of the government for planning various schemes and their implementation. In West Bengal, a state in eastern India, where the Panchayats were revitalised before the constitutional amendment, the initial years were marked by strong coordination between the Panchayats and other departments, especially land and agriculture, making West Bengal a ‘model’ case for the Panchayats. However, where service delivery through the Panchayats has been criticised in recent years, the disjuncture between Panchayats and the line departments is a cause for alarm. In this paper, we search for the causes behind the low level of coordination between government departments and the Panchayat at each tier. We analyse the complex process of organisational coordination that characterises decentralisation, and show how decision making in local governments is nested within various levels of hierarchy. The study focuses on the formal structures of coordination and control with regard to decision-making between the Panchayats and the line departments. We show how these processes work out in practice. These involve lack of role definition, problems of accountability, and politics over access to resources and relations of power within, as well as outside, the Panchayat.
Analysis sharing method by managing provenance of query (2017)

Measured data analysis generally requires a large amount of resources since each analyst individually examines data in their own way. We propose the Query Object Graph Analysis method for enabling analysis sharing among analysts. The proposed method can prevent duplicate processing and data explosion by managing analysis data in unified forms of time-series and range-series and by representing and sharing the analysis procedure as a graph pointing to the analysis data. We evaluated this effect regarding damage analysis of a structure and found that the proposed method can reduce program execution time by 2/3 and the amount of analysis data by 1/3. This makes efficient analysis possible by several analysts using the same data source.
Joint Intermodal and Intramodal Label Transfers for Extremely Rare or Unseen Classes (2016)

In this paper, we present a label transfer model from texts to images for image classification tasks. The problem of image classification is often much more challenging than text classification. On one hand, labeled text data is more widely available than the labeled images for classification tasks. On the other hand, text data tends to have natural semantic interpretability, and they are often more directly related to class labels. On the contrary, the image features are not directly related to concepts inherent in class labels. One of our goals in this paper is to develop a model for revealing the functional relationships between text and image features as to directly transfer intermodal and intramodal labels to annotate the images. This is implemented by learning a transfer function as a bridge to propagate the labels between two multimodal spaces. However, the intermodal label transfers could be undermined by blindly transferring the labels of noisy texts to annotate images. To mitigate this problem, we present an intramodal label transfer process, which complements the intermodal label transfer by transferring the image labels instead when relevant text is absent from the source corpus. In addition, we generalize the inter-modal label transfer to zero-shot learning scenario where there are only text examples available to label unseen classes of images without any positive image examples. We evaluate our algorithm on an image classification task and show the effectiveness with respect to the other compared algorithms.
Beauveriolides, Specific Inhibitors of Lipid Droplet Formation in Mouse Macrophages, Produced by Beauveria sp. FO-6979. (1999)

Beauveria sp. FO-6979, a soil isolate, was found to produce inhibitors of lipid droplet formation in mouse peritoneal macrophages. A new compound beauveriolide III was isolated along with a known compound beauveriolide I from the fermentation broth of the producing strain by solvent extraction, ODS column chromatography, silica gel column chromatography and preparative HPLC. Beauveriolides I and III caused a reduction in the number and size of cytosolic lipid droplets in macrophages at 10 μM without any cy to toxic effect on macrophages.

Pharmacokinetic Profile of Orally Administered Scyllo‐Inositol (Elnd005) in Plasma, Cerebrospinal Fluid and Brain, and Corresponding Effect on Amyloid‐Beta in Healthy Subjects (2013)

ELND005 (scyllo-inositol), an endogenous inositol stereoisomer, is being investigated as an oral treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Pharmacokinetics of ELND005 in plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and brain was characterized in healthy young subjects. Eight men received 2000 mg ELND005 every 12 hours for 10 days. Plasma and CSF samples were collected at predetermined time points; ELND005 and amyloid-beta (Aβ) fragments were measured by validated bioanalytical methods. Brain ELND005 levels, estimated by (1) H Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) scans were obtained from gray/white matter voxels at baseline and Day 8. ELND005 was well-tolerated during the study. During the apparent steady state, ELND005 plasma levels rapidly peaked at 39.8 µg/mL and decreased to an average trough concentration of 10.6 µg/mL at the end of the 12-hour dosing regimen. In contrast, CSF drug levels slowly peaked at 13.7 µg/mL and remained near the same level with average trough concentrations of 12.4 µg/mL. At Day 8, Brain ELND005 concentrations increased by 58-76% compared to baseline levels. The CSF concentrations achieved in this study were similar to those associated with efficacy in transgenic models of AD. No changes were detected in plasma and CSF levels of Aβ fragments.
Obstructive Uropathy in Mice and Humans (2003)

Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is a major characteristic of progressive renal diseases. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a family of growth regulatory molecules consisting of PDGF-A and -B, along with the newly discovered PDGF-C and -D. They signal through cell membrane receptors, PDGF receptor alpha (PDGF-Ralpha) and receptor beta (PDGF-Rbeta). Involvement of PDGF-B and PDGF-Rbeta in the initiation and progression of renal fibrosis has been well documented. The authors studied the localization of PDGF ligands and receptors by immunohistochemistry, with emphasis on the role of PDGF-D in murine renal fibrosis induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). In mice with UUO, de novo expression of PDGF-D was detected in interstitial cells at day 4, which increased to maximal expression at day 14. Increased expression of PDGF-B by interstitial cells and in some tubules was observed after day 4. The diseased mice did not show augmentation of PDGF-A or PDGF-C proteins in the areas of fibrosis. PDGF-Ralpha and -Rbeta protein expression was increased in interstitial cells after day 4 and reached maximal expression at day 14. Human renal nephrectomies (n = 10) of chronic obstructive nephropathy demonstrated similar de novo expression of PDGF-D in interstitial cells, correlating with expression of PDGF-Rbeta and PDGF-B, as it did in the murine model. These observations suggest that PDGF-D plays an important role in the pathogenesis of tubulointerstitial injury through binding of PDGF-Rbeta in both human obstructive nephropathy and the corresponding murine model of UUO.

Development of a drug assay using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (1990)

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy has been used to detect low levels of several chemical compounds, including the drugs of abuse -cocaine hydrochloride and methamphetamme hydrochloride. Raman spectra of these substances have also been taken over optical fibers using red-wavelength excitation. These measurements demonstrate the feasibility of the remote determination of various target chemicals using diode laser excitation and diode array detection.
Impact of CFO Estimation on the Performance of ZF Receiver in Massive MU-MIMO Systems (2016)

In this paper, we study the impact of carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation/compensation on the information rate performance of the zero-forcing (ZF) receiver in the uplink of a multiuser (MU) massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system. Analysis of the derived closed-form expression of the per-user information rate reveals that, with the increasing number of BS antennas M, an O(√M) array gain is achievable, which is the same as that achieved in the ideal zero CFO scenario. Moreover, it is observed that, compared with the ideal zero CFO case, the performance degradation in the presence of residual CFO (after CFO compensation) is the same for both ZF and MRC.

Detection, treatment, and prevention of carbapenemase-producingEnterobacteriaceae: Recommendations from an International Working Group (2013)

The prevalence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) has increased during the past 10 years. Its detection is frequently difficult, because they do not always show a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value for carbapenems in the resistance range. Both broth microdilution and agar dilution methods are more sensitive than disk diffusion method, Etest and automated systems. Studies on antimicrobial treatment are based on a limited number of patients; therefore, the optimal treatment is not well established. Combination therapy with two active drugs appears to be more effective than monotherapy. Combination of a carbapenem with another active agent--preferentially an aminoglycoside or colistin--could lower mortality provided that the MIC is ≤4 mg/l and probably ≤8 mg/l, and is administered in a higher-dose/prolonged-infusion regimen. An aggressive infection control and prevention strategy is recommended, including reinforcement of hand hygiene, using contact precautions and early detection of CPE through use of targeted surveillance.
Unusual Patterns of IgG Avidity in Some Young Children following Two Doses of the Adjuvanted Pandemic H1N1 (2009) Influenza Virus Vaccine (2013)

During the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza pandemic, an adjuvanted monovalent vaccine containing ∼25% of the normal antigen dose and AS03 adjuvant was widely used in Canada. This vaccine was found to be well-tolerated and immunogenic in young children (D. W. Scheifele et al., Pediatr. Infect. Dis. J. 30:402-407, 2011). We report here additional analyses to further characterize the humoral response to this vaccine. We measured standard hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) and microneutralization (MN) titers, as well as influenza virus-specific IgG avidity and subclass distribution by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 73 subjects. Sera were collected before (day 0) and 3 weeks after each dose of vaccine (days 21 and 42). Most children (55/73) had undetectable HAI and MN titers at day 0 (presumed to be antigen naive) and mounted good responses at days 21 and 42. The majority of these children (43/55) had the expected pattern of an increasing IgG avidity index (AI) after each dose of vaccine (not detected [ND], 0.30, and 2.97 at days 0, 21, and 42, respectively). The avidity responses in the remaining children (12/55) were quite different, with AIs increasing abruptly after the first dose and then declining after the second dose of vaccine (ND, 8.83, and 7.15, respectively). These children also had higher concentrations of influenza virus-specific IgG1 and IgG3 antibodies at day 21. Although the antibody titers were similar, some antigen-naive children demonstrated an unusual pattern of avidity maturation after two immunizations with AS03-adjuvanted, low-dose influenza virus vaccine. These data suggest the presence of subtle differences in the quality of the antibodies produced by some subjects in response to this vaccine.
Is dystrophin present in the nerve terminal nat the neuromuscular junction? An immunoshistochemical study of the heterozygote dystrophic (mdx) mouse (1991)

Neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) were identified by revealing the presence of cholinergic receptors (AChR) with alpha-bungarotoxin coupled to the fluorescent dye cascade blue in 9- and 60-day-old normal and heterozygote mdx mice. Dystrophin was detected by an immunoperoxidase technique. All the muscle fibers of the normal animals observed in cross sections were immunoreactive for dystrophin and an accumulation of dystrophin was observed at all NMJs identified by alpha-bungarotoxin. In the 9-day-old mdx heterozygote animals, dystrophin positive, negative, and partially positive muscle cross sections were observed. Four different observations were made in these heterozygote animals on the coexistence of AChR and dystrophin. First, alpha-bungarotoxin sites (i.e., NMJs) were observed on dystrophin positive muscle fiber cross sections with an accumulation of dystrophin at these sites. Second, alpha-bungarotoxin sites were observed on dystrophin positive fibers without a dystrophin accumulation at NMJs. Third, there was a coexistence of alpha-bungarotoxin and dystrophin labelling at NMJs of muscle fibers with perimeters labelling negative for dystrophin. Fourth, NMJs, identified by alpha-bungarotoxin, were observed on muscle fibers negative for dystrophin even at the NMJ. These observations suggest that dystrophin is present not only in the muscle membrane but also in the presynaptic nerve terminals.
