Large magnetoresistance in the type-II Weyl semimetal <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mml:msub><mml:mi>WP</mml:mi><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:msub></mml:math> (2017)

We report a magnetotransport study on type-II Weyl semimetal ${\mathrm{WP}}_{2}$ single crystals. Magnetoresistance exhibits a nonsaturating ${H}^{n}$ field dependence (14 300% at 2 K and 9 T), whereas systematic violation of Kohler's rule was observed. Quantum oscillations reveal a complex multiband electronic structure. The cyclotron effective mass close to the mass of free electron ${m}_{e}$ was observed in quantum oscillations along the $b$ axis, while a reduced effective mass of about $0.5{m}_{e}$ was observed in $a$-axis quantum oscillations, suggesting Fermi surface anisotropy. The temperature dependence of the resistivity shows a large upturn that cannot be explained by the multiband magnetoresistance of conventional metals. Even though the crystal structure of ${\mathrm{WP}}_{2}$ is not layered as in transition-metal dichalcogenides, quantum oscillations suggest partial two-dimensional character.
Distributed Lock Manager for Distributed File System in Shared-Disk Environment (2010)

Some new paradigms of large-scale distributed computing such as cluster, grid, and cloud computing have been recently developed to effectively support exponentially growing amount of data. Here numerous users store their data in the distributed storage that are accessed remotely anytime and anywhere. Therefore, an appropriate concurrency control such as locking is needed so that multiple users can collaborate with each other using the shared storage. This paper proposes a host lock mechanism based on distributed lock managers to support multiple clients in the clustered shared-disk environment. We have also introduced the object duplication scheme to minimize the waiting time for the request on exclusive mode, the reconstruction scheme for recovering the lock information after the lock server fails, and the deadlock avoidance scheme preventing the deadlock situation. Computer simulation reveals that the proposed mechanism is more flexible and efficient than the callback scheme typically employed for lock control and centralized locking mechanism. The communication cost of the proposed scheme is smaller than the callback scheme by adopting the blocking approach with a wait queue to eliminate spin-lock. The improvement gets more significant as the request rate of lock increases. It also significantly improves the processing time and utilization.

Cross-presentation of antigen by diverse subsets of murine liver cells (2011)

Hepatic sinusoids are an environment rich in antigen cross-presenting activity. However, the liver's resident antigen-presenting cells cause partial T-cell activation. These results clarify how the liver can act as a primary site of CD8+ T-cell activation, and why immunity against hepatocyte pathogens is sometimes ineffective.
Extraction of control parameters for the voice source in a text-to-speech system (2002)

In order to derive voice source control rules from natural speech, the parameters of a source model must be derived from the acoustic signal. This is done by parameterizing the results of glottal inverse filtering. A number of different inverse filtering procedures and the ease with which their results can be parameterized are compared. It is shown that closed glottic interval covariance linear predictive coding is as powerful as more sophisticated techniques, because it is the only known method that can strictly be limited to the closed glottis interval.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Investigation of Teflon Electret Detectors for Gamma Dosimetry (1983)

The development of an electret dosemeter for application in gamma dosimetry, e.g. personnel monitoring is described. The electret dosemeter is an analogue of a common ionisation chamber using permanently charged electrodes - electrets. As a pre-requisite for the construction of such a dosemeter electrets with high values and permanence of the electric field are necessary. Therefore, one-sided metallised Teflon electrets were formed by heating in the presence of high voltage. The best results were obtained by varying the forming parameters for negative net homo-charged electrets. A measuring device for the determination of the electret voltage and hence the surface charge density was developed. The measuring principle is that of the non contacting dynamic capacitor. The device allows the electret voltage to be determined with high accuracy by the compensation method or by direct ac voltage measurement. The dosimetric properties depending on the electret parameters as well as on the chamber dimensions were examined in the field of a 60Co source. The sensitivity and dose measuring range can be modified by variation of these parameters. The lower detectable dose limit is approximately 10-5 Gy. By choosing an appropriate combination of two electret ionisation chambers a useful dose range of about four orders of magnitude can be covered.

Defining faster transfer syntaxes for the OSI presentation protocol (1989)

In an heterogeneous environment, applications must agree the structure and a binary representation of the exchanged data. This can a priori be done by adopting by the two standards proposed by ISO: the Abstract Syntax Notation 1 (ASN-1) and the ASN-1 basic encoding rules (ASN1-BER). However, the ASN1-BER conversion procedures are highly CPU consuming, which is not acceptable for several "high speed" applications. We propose to use the presentation layer negotiation to select faster transfer syntax. We have experimented with a first "light weight" syntax since 1988, and have just completed the definition a new "flat tree light weight syntax", which can be orders of magnitude faster than the ASN1-BER.
A high-rate long-range wireless transmission system for multichannel neural recording applications (2009)

We report a high-rate, low-power wireless transmission system (named HermesD) to aid the research in neural prosthetics for motor disabilities, by recording and transmitting neural activity from electrode arrays implanted in rhesus monkeys. This system supports the simultaneous transmission of 32 channels of broadband data sampled at 30 kSps, 12 bit/sample, using FSK modulation on a 3.95 GHz carrier, with a link range extending over 20 m. The channel rate is 24 Mbit/s and the bit stream includes synchronization and error detection mechanisms. The power consumption, approximately 142 mW, is low enough to allow the system to operate for about two days, using two 3.7 V / 1100 mAh Li-Ion battery packs. The transmitter was designed using off-the-shelf components and is small enough to fit on a printed circuit board with 20 cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> . The receiver is composed of several submodules in a bench-top configuration and interfaced to a computer for data storage and processing. This system can be easily scaled up in terms of the number of channels and data rate, being an appropriate test platform for a future 96-channel version of the system.
RC3E: Provision and Management of Reconfigurable Hardware Accelerators in a Cloud Environment (2015)

Heterogeneous systems consisting of general-purpose processors and different types of hardware accelerators are becoming more and more common in HPC systems. Especially FPGAs provide a promising opportunity to improve both performance and energy efficiency of such systems. Adding FPGAs to clouds or data centers allows easy access to such reconfigurable resources. In this paper we present our cloud service models and cloud hypervisor called RC3E, which integrates virtualized FPGA-based hardware accelerators into a cloud environment. With our hardware and software framework, multiple (virtual) user designs can be executed on a single physical FPGA device. We demonstrate the performance of our approach by implementing up to four virtual user cores on a single device and present future perspectives for FPGAs in cloud-based data environments.
Tissue (type II) transglutaminase covalently incorporates itself, fibrinogen, or fibronectin into high molecular weight complexes on the extracellular surface of isolated hepatocytes. Use of 2-[(2-oxopropyl)thio] imidazolium derivatives as cellular transglutaminase inactivators. (1991)

Rabbit hepatocyte surface-expressed tissue (type II) transglutaminase is shown to act as a binding site for fibrinogen or fibronectin and to covalently incorporate these glycoproteins, in addition to itself, into extracellular high molecular weight complexes. This concept is supported by the observation that a nonpeptidyl, active site-directed transglutaminase inactivator (L683685) elicited concentration-dependent (0.1-10 microM) decreases in the calcium-dependent binding and covalent cross-linking of 125I-fibrinogen, 125I-fibronectin, or [14C]putrescine by hepatocyte suspensions. In corroboration with these findings, an antiserum against rabbit liver transglutaminase, which did not cross-react with rabbit factor XIII, elicited concentration-dependent decreases in the calcium-dependent binding and covalent cross-linking of 125I-fibrinogen or [14C]putrescine by hepatocyte suspensions. Western blots of sodium dodecyl sulfate/Triton-insoluble hepatocyte fractions conducted with this antiserum, with a polyclonal antiserum against human erythrocyte transglutaminase, or with a monoclonal antibody (CUB-7401) against guinea pig liver transglutaminase detected the 80-kDa tissue transglutaminase, as well as tissue transglutaminase-immunoreactive bands of higher molecular mass (range of 90 to greater than 200 kDa). The higher molecular weight species were preferentially incorporated, in a time- and calcium-dependent manner, into very high molecular weight complexes which did not enter the stacking gel. Incorporation of these tissue transglutaminase-containing bands into the high molecular weight complexes was inhibited by L683685, indicating that cross-linking by the enzyme was responsible for the assembly of the complexes of which tissue transglutaminase was itself a component. Cellular integrins did not mediate ligand binding under the experimental conditions, as evidenced by the failure of the Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser tetrapeptide or anti-integrin antibodies to inhibit binding or cross-linking of 125I-fibrinogen or 125I-fibronectin, in the presence or absence of transglutaminase inactivators.
Micro Mechanical Acoustic Sensor toward Artificial Basilar Membrane Modeling (1999)

This paper describes the design, the fabrication, and the characterization of a micro mechanical acoustic sensor modeling the basilar membrane of human cochlea. This work aims at the implementation of human cochlear system on a silicon chip. The acoustic sensor is an array of resonators whose frequency selectivity is associated with the one-way flow of vibration energy. The mechanical structure of the sensor is designed using FEM analysis to have a particular geometrical structure looking like a fish bone that consists of cantilever ribs extending out from a backbone. The skeleton of the sensor is fabricated using silicon micromachining technology. We observed the frequency response of each resonator to pure tones to verify fairly sharp frequency selectivity. The present results encourage us in our trials to integrate human auditory system on a silicon chip toward the goal of artificial cochlea.

Rapid RNase L–driven arrest of protein synthesis in the dsRNA response without degradation of translation machinery (2017)

Mammalian cells respond to double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) by activating a translation-inhibiting endoribonuclease, RNase L. Consensus in the field indicates that RNase L arrests protein synthesis by degrading ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and messenger RNAs (mRNAs). However, here we provide evidence for a different and far more efficient mechanism. By sequencing abundant RNA fragments generated by RNase L in human cells, we identify site-specific cleavage of two groups of noncoding RNAs: Y-RNAs, whose function is poorly understood, and cytosolic tRNAs, which are essential for translation. Quantitative analysis of human RNA cleavage versus nascent protein synthesis in lung carcinoma cells shows that RNase L stops global translation when tRNAs, as well as rRNAs and mRNAs, are still intact. Therefore, RNase L does not have to degrade the translation machinery to stop protein synthesis. Our data point to a rapid mechanism that transforms a subtle RNA cleavage into a cell-wide translation arrest.
Towards securing 3G mobile phones (2005)

Third-generation (3G) mobile phones are capable of high data rate Internet connection and promise seamless connectivity for a free roaming user. They can provide an "always on" Internet, and make a range of services, traditionally available on desktop computers, accessible to mobile users, irrespective of their location. Providing adequate security for these phones and the services that they offer is a central concern for their acceptability and uptake. We briefly review the security of second generation mobile phones and then discuss security architecture proposed for 3G phones. The new security issues that are of importance because of the combination of their advanced capabilities and limitations are discussed.
Subjective evaluation of de-interlacing techniques (2005)

Interlace is part of television standards since the very start of TV-broadcast. The advent of new display principles that cannot handle interlaced video, the wish to up-scale standard definition video for display on large high-definition screens and the introduction of video in traditionally non-interlaced multimedia PCs ask for advanced de-interlacing techniques. Various de-interlacing techniques can be categorized into non-motion compensated methods and motion compensated methods. The former includes linear techniques such as spatial filtering, temporal filtering, vertical-temporal filtering and non-linear techniques like motion adaptive filtering, edge-dependent interpolation, implicitly adapting methods and hybrid methods. The latter category includes temporal backward projection, time-recursive de-interlacing, adaptive-recursive de-interlacing, generalized sampling theorem de-interlacing method and hybrid method. An objective comparison based on Mean Square Error (MSE) and Motion Trajectory Inconsistency (MTI) metric has been given on above listed methods. In this paper, we describe a subjective assessment in which a number of de-interlacing techniques will be ranked by a group of viewers (typically twenty persons). The experiment was set-up according to the recommendations of the ITU. Combined with the objective scores presented in the earlier publications, we then have a thorough analysis of each selected de-interlacing algorithms. This improves the relevance and reliability of our knowledge concerning the performance of these de-interlacing algorithms.

Round-Efficient Black-Box Construction of Composable Multi-Party Computation. (2014)

We present a round-efficient black-box construction of a general multi-party computation (MPC) protocol that satisfies composability in the plain model. The security of our protocol is proven in the angel-based UC framework [Prabhakaran and Sahai, STOC’04] under the minimal assumption of the existence of semi-honest oblivious transfer protocols. The round complexity of our protocol is $$\max (\widetilde{O}(\log ^2n), O(R_{{{{\mathsf {O}}}{{\mathsf {T}}}}}))$$
 when the round complexity of the underlying oblivious transfer protocol is $$R_{{{{\mathsf {O}}}{{\mathsf {T}}}}}$$
 . Since constant-round semi-honest oblivious transfer protocols can be constructed under standard assumptions (such as the existence of enhanced trapdoor permutations), our result gives a $$\widetilde{O}(\log ^2n)$$
 -round protocol under these assumptions. Previously, only an $$O(\max (n^{\epsilon }, R_{{{{\mathsf {O}}}{{\mathsf {T}}}}}))$$
 -round protocol was shown, where $$\epsilon >0$$
 is an arbitrary constant. We obtain our MPC protocol by constructing a $$\widetilde{O}(\log ^2n)$$
 -round CCA-secure commitment scheme in a black-box way under the assumption of the existence of one-way functions.
