Deoxyribonucleic Acid Relatedness Among "Haemophilus somnus," "Haemophilus agni," "Histophilus ovis," "Actinobacillus seminis," and Haemophilus influenzae (1985)

The results of deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization studies demonstrated a high degree of relatedness among “Haemophilus somnus,” “Haemophilus agni” “Histophilus ovis,” strains isolated from the preputial cavities of rams, and strains isolated from clinical cases of epididymitis in rams. The degree of relatedness between “Haemophilus somnus” and Actinobacillus seminis or Haemophilus influenzile was very small. From the results of our hybridization studies and previous studies on morphological characteristics, serology, and biochemical activity, we conclude that “Haemophilus somnus,” “Haemophilus agni,” and “Histophilus ovis” should be considered a single species. Inclusion in the genus Haemophilus does not appear to be appropriate. The data also suggest that bovine and ovine isolates may constitute two separate groups within the species. More extensive hybridization studies will be required for establishment of the definitive taxonomic position of this group of organisms.
Modeling and dynamic management of 3D multicore systems with liquid cooling (2009)

Three-dimensional (3D) circuits reduce communication delay in multicore SoCs, and enable efficient integration of cores, memories, sensors, and RF devices. However, vertical integration of layers exacerbates the reliability and thermal problems, and cooling efficiency becomes a limiting factor. Liquid cooling is a solution to overcome the accelerated thermal problems imposed by multi-layer architectures. In this paper, we first provide a 3D thermal simulation model including liquid cooling, supporting both fixed and variable fluid injection rates. Our model has been integrated in HotSpot to study the impact on multicore SoCs. We design and evaluate several dynamic management policies that complement liquid cooling. Our results for 3D multicore SoCs, which are based on 3D versions of UltraSPARC T1, show that thermal management approaches that combine liquid cooling with proactive task allocation are extremely effective in preventing temperature problems. Our proactive management technique provides an additional 75% average reduction in hot spots in comparison to applying only liquid cooling. Furthermore, for systems capable of varying the coolant flow rate at runtime, our feedback controller increases the improvement to 95% on average.
Characterization of Cell Lysis in <i>Pseudomonas putida</i> Induced upon Expression of Heterologous Killing Genes (1998)

Active biological containment systems are based on the controlled expression of killing genes. These systems are of interest for the Pseudomonadaceae because of the potential applications of these microbes as bioremediation agents and biopesticides. The physiological effects that lead to cell death upon the induction of expression of two different heterologous killing genes in nonpathogenic Pseudomonas putida KT2440 derivatives have been analyzed. P. putida CMC4 and CMC12 carry in their chromosomes a fusion of the PA1-04/03 promoter to the Escherichia coli gef gene and the phiX174 lysis gene E, respectively. Expression of the killing genes is controlled by the LacI protein, whose expression is initiated from the XylS-dependent Pm promoter. Under induced conditions, killing of P. putida CMC12 cells mediated by phiX174 lysis protein E was faster than that observed for P. putida CMC4, for which the Gef protein was the killing agent. In both cases, cell death occurred as a result of impaired respiration, altered membrane permeability, and the release of some cytoplasmic contents to the extracellular medium.
A Utility-Based Adaptivity Model for Mobile Applications (2007)

Mobile environments are characterized by resource fluctuations and limitations, and variations in user preferences. Therefore mobile applications need to be adaptive to retain usability, usefulness and reliability. In our approach to support adaptivity, we combine context awareness, reflection and component composition planning. The planning is done by generic middleware and supports dynamic discovery, utility-based and context-aware evaluation, and selection of the best implementation alternative of a given mobile application. In this paper we present a formal model of our approach and use this model to show the expressiveness of utility-based adaptation policies. To demonstrate the feasibility and expressiveness of our approach we include a case study based on a real adaptive application built using our model and middleware.
<title>Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS) 512-Channel Digicon Detector Performance Data</title> (1981)

The Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS), one of five scientific instruments being built for the Space Telescope, has recently completed a significant milestone in its progression toward final instrument assembly, integration, and test. Seven flight Digicon phototubes have been successfully manufactured and tested and a development unit of the integrated detector assembly has successfully completed a set of difficult environmental and functional tests. This paper presents the results of these tests and details the results of the Digicon tube tests including photocathode quantum efficiency, dark count rate, uniformity, distortion, resolution, and diode array performance.
Off-Nominal Operation of Class-E Amplifier at Any Duty Ratio (2007)

Design equations for satisfying the suboptimum operating condition, i.e., only the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) condition, of a class-E amplifier with a linear shunt capacitance at any duty ratio are derived. By exploiting the suboptimum class-E operation, various amplifier parameters such as operating frequency, output power, load resistance, and component values can vary, while the ZVS operation and high efficiency can be achieved. An example of a design procedure of the class-E amplifier is given. The theoretical results were verified with PSpice simulation and an experiment.
A Fuel Vapor Model (FVSMOD) for Evaporative Emissions System Design and Analysis (1998)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">A fuel vapor system model (FVSMOD) has been developed to simulate vehicle evaporative emission control system behavior. The fuel system components incorporated into the model include the fuel tank and pump, filler cap, liquid supply and return lines, fuel rail, vent valves, vent line, carbon canister and purge line. The system is modeled as a vented system of liquid fuel and vapor in equilibrium, subject to a thermal environment characterized by underhood and underbody temperatures and heat transfer parameters assumed known or determined by calibration with experimental liquid temperature data. The vapor/liquid equilibrium is calculated by simple empirical equations which take into account the weathering of the fuel, while the canister is modeled as a 1-dimensional unsteady absorptive and diffusive bed. Both fuel and canister submodels have been described in previous publications. This paper presents the system equations along with validation against experimental data. Some typical vapor system applications are also presented including a simulation of the EPA three day enhanced evaporative test procedure.</div>
Advances in SXFA-Coated SAW Chemical Sensors for Organophosphorous Compound Detection (2011)

A polymer-coated surface acoustic wave (SAW)-based chemical sensor for organophosphorous compound sensing at extremely low concentrations was developed, in which a dual-delay-line oscillator coated with fluoroalcoholpolysiloxane (SXFA) acted as the sensor element. Response mechanism analysis was performed on the SXFA-coated chemical sensor, resulting in the optimal design parameters. The shear modulus of the SXFA, which is the key parameter for theoretical simulation, was extracted experimentally. New designs were done on the SAW devices to decrease the insertion loss. Referring to the new phase modulation approach, superior short-term frequency stability (±2 Hz in seconds) was achieved from the SAW oscillator using the fabricated 300 MHz delay line as the feedback element. In the sensor experiment on dimethylmethylphosphonate (DMMP) detection, the fabricated SXFA-coated chemical sensor exhibited an excellent threshold detection limit up to 0.004 mg/m(3) (0.7 ppb) and good sensitivity (∼485 Hz/mg/m(3) for a DMMP concentration of 2∼14 mg/m(3)).
High-Speed GC and GC/MS with a Series-Coupled Column Ensemble Using Stop-Flow Operation (2001)

A pneumatically actuated valve is used to connect the junction point of a series-coupled column ensemble to a ballast chamber containing carrier gas at the ensemble inlet pressure in order to periodically stop the carrier gas flow in the first column. When the valve is opened, mixture components, which have migrated across the column junction, are accelerated toward a time-of-flight mass spectrometer that is used as an ensemble detector. Mixture components, which are still in the first column, are frozen in position. This allows for the insertion of time windows into the ensemble chromatogram that can aid in the separation of some overlapping component peaks. The capillary column ensemble (0.18-mm i.d. x 0.18-microm film thickness) consists of a 7.0-m length of polar, (trifluoropropyl)methyl polysiloxane column followed by a 7.0-m length of nonpolar dimethyl polysiloxane column. A flame ionization detector located at the column junction point is used to monitor a portion of the effluent from the first column in order to determine the valve timing sequence needed to enhance the separation of component pairs that are separated by the first column but coelute from the column ensemble. When one of the components of a targeted pair has crossed the junction but the other component is still in the first column, the valve is opened, typically for 1-5 s. The stop-flow system is used to enhance the separation of a mixture containing some common essential oil components and a mixture containing some common pesticides.
Database Migration Tool (DMT) - accomplishments & future directions (2010)

The Database Migration Tool (DBM Tool) is a Tool developed by using Language C++ & SQLAPI++ 3.5.7 as a middleware. Due to rapid growth of information technology many organizations are forced to transfer their technologies, by changing the database from one format into another. So organizations do need some tools to convert their databases into recent and reliable technology. This article is aimed to accomplish how the migration takes place between recent databases technological and reliable tool. This DBM Tool is used to transform the data from one format to another. The data format either may be the same or different. Since each data stored has different formats and file systems, the Database Migration Tool (DBM) must be capable enough to migrate the data successfully reliable and flexible. Planning the migration of database applications and routines requires the review all of the applicable pre-migration tasks, migration pre-requisites, migration tasks, and post-migration tasks. This DBM Tool is to convert only SQL oriented databases like Oracle, MS-Access and SQL Server etc.
Azido Derivatives of Germanium(II) and Tin(II):  Syntheses and Characterization of [(Mes)<sub>2</sub>DAP]GeN<sub>3</sub>, [(Mes)<sub>2</sub>DAP]SnN<sub>3</sub>, and the Corresponding Chloro Analogues Featuring Heterocyclic Six-π-Electron Ring Systems (where [(Mes)<sub>2</sub>DAP] = {N(Mes)C(Me)}<sub>2</sub>CH) (2001)

Chloro and azido germanium(II) and tin(II) 1,5-diazapentadienyl complexes have been investigated. The treatment of GeCl2·(1,4-dioxane) or SnCl2 with [(Mes)2DAP]Li in a 1:1 molar ratio gave the corresponding germanium(II) or tin(II) chloro complexes [(Mes)2DAP]MCl (where [(Mes)2DAP] = 2,4-dimethyl-N,N‘-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,5-diazapentadienyl; M = Ge or Sn). [(Mes)2DAP]GeCl and [(Mes)2DAP]SnCl are monomeric in the solid state. The C3N2M rings adopt a flattened boat conformation. The metathesis reaction between [(Mes)2DAP]MCl and sodium azide affords the azido compounds [(Mes)2DAP]MN3 in excellent yield. X-ray analysis revealed that [(Mes)2DAP]GeN3 features an essentially linear azide moiety and a nearly planar heterocyclic C3N2Ge ring system. The azide group occupies a site above the C3N2Ge ring. The solid-state structure of the tin azide [(Mes)2DAP]SnN3 shows weak intermolecular Sn···N contacts. It features a linear azide moiety and a planar heterocyclic C3N2Sn ring system. Both azides have long (M)N−N(N) bonds and short (MN)N−N bonds. IR spectra of [(Mes)2DAP]GeN3 and [(Mes)2DAP]SnN3 display νasym(N3) bands at 2062 and 2060 cm-1, respectively. 14N NMR spectroscopic data show three well-separated signals for the nitrogen atoms of the azide moieties. Structural and spectroscopic data suggest the presence of very similar azide groups in the Ge(II) and Sn(II) adducts. The dominant canonical form of the metal−azide moiety is M−N−N⋮N.

Epidemiologic and pathologic characteristics of respiratory tract disease in dairy heifers during the first three months of life (1996)

Results of this study suggested a synergistic effect between Mycoplasma sp and P multocida and a possible initiative role of M dispar in the development of respiratory tract disease. Postcolostral total IgG values and antibody titers were not significantly different between cases and controls, implying that other factors have an important role in the development of respiratory tract disease.
Informed Institutional Trading Around Merger andAcquisition Announcements (2011)

Merger and acquisition (M&A) activities are not well-anticipated corporate events in the equity market.Do institutional investors possess material non-public information before M&A announcements? Using a novel methodology that infers high frequency institutional trading, this article investigates the daily trading behavior of institutional investors in target firms before and after M&A announcements in the U.S. equity market from 1993 to 2004. The methodology is based on combining two publicly available datasets: the NYSE Trades and Quotes (TAQ) dataset and the institutional ownership report (13F). The author finds that all institutional investors start to accumulate net buying positions in target firms as far as 30 days before an announcement date. Institutional investors are not a homogeneous group in terms of trading strategies, regulations or information venues, but, surprisingly, they exhibit similar trading patterns prior to the event.This trading pattern indicates that institutional investors may possess material non-public information. On and after the announcement day, investment advisors tend to be merger arbitragers and buy more shares of target firm stocks to speculate on final deal consummation; while banks, insurance companies, and mutual funds immediately reverse their positions to cash in, a behavior consistent with the early informed traders acting as “shortterm profit takers.” The author rules out the possibility of a market-wide information leak prior to the event because prices of target firms do not show any significant price run-ups. Also, the fact that institutions are net sellers in rival firms of targets before the announcement, allows us to rule out the possibility that institutional investors have better models to predict possible takeovers, rather than inside information. Finally, the author shows that the trading by institutions before M&A announcements is associated with a higher probability of informed trading, for the firms they trade. <b>TOPICS:</b>Statistical methods, information providers/credit ratings
SEXUAL AND SEASONAL DIFFERENCES IN THE DIET OF LANYU SCOPS OWLS BASED ON FECAL ANALYSIS (2004)

Sexual size dimorphism in bird species has been claimed to reduce intersexual food competition and expand the species' overall feeding niche, yet quantitative diet information is known for only a few species. Lanyu scops owl (Otus elegans), a nocturnal insectivore on Lanyu (also called Orchid Island, southeast of Taiwan), has larger females than males. Lanyu scops owls rarely produce pellets, rendering quantification of its diet particularly difficult. We studied the diet of wild Lanyu scops owls through fecal analysis and verified the reliability of our method with a captive owl. Our results showed that fecal analysis was more reliable than observation alone because observations often missed small prey items and resulted in a much higher proportion of prey being unidentified. The feces of 81 Lanyu scops owls showed that orthopterans, beetles, moths, spiders, and centipedes constituted 67% of the total occurrences and >80% of the volume in their diet. Between the breeding and nonbreeding season, owl diets differed slightly in proportion but not in food types. Intersexual diet differences existed for both the breeding and nonbreeding seasons. Adult males ate a higher proportion of aerial insects than did adult females, which is consistent with the prediction that smaller males are more agile than larger females in capturing aerial insects. Male owls ate a lower proportion of terrestrial arthropods than did both females and juveniles in the breeding season, perhaps due to differential use of forest strata when foraging by male and female owls. Fecal analysis provides more reliable information on the diet of insectivorous owls than observations alone and is a non-invasive option for studying the diet of rare or threatened owls.
A Simple One-System Solution COF-PON for Metro/Access Networks (2007)

In this paper, next-generation ultralong reach code division multiplexing (CDM) on fiber (COF) passive optical network (COF-PON) based on CDM (multiplexing carried out in electrical domain) presented here. We describe the system configuration, COF transceiver, key merits such as bidirectional transmission (on the same wavelength with single fiber), extending the reach by coding gain, and offering huge bandwidth to large number of subscribers by overlaying on coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM)/wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). We believe our newly proposed ultralong reach COF-PON will help to drastically reduce the Capex and Opex costs by consolidating metro and access networks into one simple network. We demonstrated initial experimental results over 100-km bidirectional COF-PON overlay on 4lambda-CWDM channels' transmission without the use of an optical amplifier
Cut-off wavelength measurements of I Ti : LiNbO, channel waveguides (1994)

One of the most important parameters in characterization of integrated optical devices is precise determination of the effective cut-off wavelength of the fundamental and first-order modes, since this sets the exact region of single-mode operation. This paper describes an experimental set-up for determination of cut-off wavelengths of integrated optical waveguides, using the technique of spectral light transmission. Measurement results obtained with Ti ~ LiNbOJ channel waveguides are Dresented for straight waveguides, bent waveguides and polarizers.
Recent advances in Hepatitis E Virus (2009)

Hepatitis E virus (HEV), the causative agent of hepatitis E, belongs to the family Hepeviridae. At least four major genotypes of HEV have been recognized: genotypes 1 and 2 are restricted to humans and associated with epidemics in developing countries, whereas genotypes 3 and 4 are zoonotic and infect humans and several other animals in both developing and industrialized countries. Besides humans, strains of HEV have been genetically identified from swine, chickens, sika deer, mongeese, and rabbits. The genome of HEV consists of three open reading frames (ORFs): ORF1 codes for nonstructural proteins, ORF2 codes for capsid protein, and ORF3 codes for a small multifunctional protein. The ORF2 and ORF3 proteins are translated from a single bicistronic mRNA and overlap each other but neither overlaps ORF1. The recent determination of the 3D crystal structure of the HEV capsid protein should facilitate the development of vaccines and antivirals. The identification and characterization of animal strains of HEV from pigs and chickens and the demonstrated ability of cross-species infection by swine HEV raise public health concerns for zoonosis. Accumulating evidence indicated that hepatitis E is a zoonotic disease and pigs and more likely other animal species are reservoirs for HEV. This article provides an overview of the recent advances in hepatitis E and its causative agent, including nomenclature and genomic organization, gene expression and functions, 3D structure of the virions, changing perspectives on higher mortality during pregnancy and chronic hepatitis E, animal reservoirs, zoonotic risk, food safety, and novel animal models.
