A 6-ns cycle 256-kb cache memory and memory management unit (1993)

A 6-ns cycle, 7.7-ns access cache memory and memory management unit (CAMMU) chip has been developed. The circuit includes two 5-ns 128-kb cache memories, two 4-ns 64-entry fully associative translation lookaside buffers (TLBs), two 4-ns 64-line tag RAMs, comparators, registers, and control logic. The TLB design contains a line encoder and valid bits with flash clear. Timing control allows read, write, associative accesses, and invalid search accesses with identical timings. The two caches time-share data input and sense amplifier circuits for improved density, and they are pipelined to allow a new access to start before the previous access is complete.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Influence of purity of HfO2 on reflectance of ultraviolet multilayer (2008)

The impurities in two kinds of HfO2 materials and in their corresponding single layer thin films were determined through glow discharge mass spectrum technology and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) equipment respectively. It was found that ZrO2 was the main impurity in the two kinds of HfO2 either in the original HfO2 materials or in the electron beam deposited films. In addition, the difference of Zr content in the two kinds of HfO2 single layer films was much larger than that of the other impurities such as Ti and Fe, which showed that it was just ZrO2 that made the difference between the optical performance of the film products including the two kinds of HfO2. With these two kinds of HfO2 and the same kind of SiO2, we deposited HfO2/SiO2 multilayer reflective coatings at the wavelength of 266 nm. Experimental results showed that the reflectances of these two mirrors were about 99.85% and 99.15% respectively, which agreed well with the designed results what were based on the optical constants obtained from the corresponding single layer thin films.

Homeotic protein binding sites, origins of replication, and nuclear matrix anchorage sites share the ATTA and ATTTA motifs (1992)

Nuclear matrix organizes the mammalian chromatin into loops. This is achieved by binding of nuclear matrix proteins to characteristic DNA landmarks in introns as well as proximal and distal sites flanking the 5' and 3' ends of genes. Matrix anchorage sites (MARs), origins of replication (ORIs), and homeotic protein binding sites share common DNA sequence motifs. In particular, the ATTA and ATTTA motifs, which constitute the core elements recognized by the homeobox domain from species as divergent as flies and humans, are frequently occurring in the matrix attachment sites of several genes. The human apolipoprotein B 3' MAR and a stretch of the Chinese hamster DHFR gene intron and human HPRT gene intron shown to anchor these genes to the nuclear matrix are mosaics of ATTA and ATTTA motifs. Several origins of replication also share these elements. This observation suggests that homeotic proteins which control the expression level of many genes and pattern formation during development are components of the nuclear matrix. Thus, the nuclear matrix, known as the site of DNA replication, might sculpture the crossroads of the differential activation of origins during development and S-phase and the control of gene expression and pattern formation in embryogenesis.
The Complete Sequence of the First Spodoptera frugiperda Betabaculovirus Genome: A Natural Multiple Recombinant Virus (2015)

Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is a major pest in maize crops in Colombia, and affects several regions in America. A granulovirus isolated from S. frugiperda (SfGV VG008) has potential as an enhancer of insecticidal activity of previously described nucleopolyhedrovirus from the same insect species (SfMNPV). The SfGV VG008 genome was sequenced and analyzed showing circular double stranded DNA of 140,913 bp encoding 146 putative ORFs that include 37 Baculoviridae core genes, 88 shared with betabaculoviruses, two shared only with betabaculoviruses from Noctuide insects, two shared with alphabaculoviruses, three copies of own genes (paralogs) and the other 14 corresponding to unique genes without representation in the other baculovirus species. Particularly, the genome encodes for important virulence factors such as 4 chitinases and 2 enhancins. The sequence analysis revealed the existence of eight homologous regions (hrs) and also suggests processes of gene acquisition by horizontal transfer including the SfGV VG008 ORFs 046/047 (paralogs), 059, 089 and 099. The bioinformatics evidence indicates that the genome donors of mentioned genes could be alpha- and/or betabaculovirus species. The previous reported ability of SfGV VG008 to naturally co-infect the same host with other virus show a possible mechanism to capture genes and thus improve its fitness.
Locating a Pinhole in a Gas-Pipeline via the Acoustic Method (1991)

A new method based on an acoustic approach is described for locating a pinhole occurred in a gas pipeline. Increase or decrease in the pressure in a packed pipeline with a pinhole leads to the gas blow out or in from the pinhole by which sound noise with the wide frequency range is generated. The acoustic noise generated at the pinhole induces the standing waves in the pipeline just like as a flute. Modes of the standing waves are determined by the length of the packed pipeline and the site of the pinhole.A mathematical acoustic model to describe the phenomena above was built and a method to locate a pinhole was presented by using the model. The method requires only one microphone which is set at a terminal in the packed pipeline. A simple algorithm applying the Fourier transformation to the acoustic signal detected by the microphone yields the accurate location of the pinhole site of the pipeline. Laboratory experiments verified the modeling and the location method.
The implementation of low latency communication primitives in the SNOW prototype (2002)

This paper describes the implementation of a low latency protected message passing facility and a low latency barrier synchronization mechanism for an experimental, tightly-coupled network of workstations called SNOW: SNOW uses multiprocessing SPARC 20s, running Solaris 2.4, as computing nodes, and uses semi-custom network interface cards (NICs) that connect these nodes in a 212 Mbits/sec. unidirectional ring. The NICs include field-programmable gate array logic devices that allow for experimentation with the nature and level of hardware support for tight coupling. The one way protected message passing latency on the SNOW prototype for a 64-byte message is about 9 /spl mu/secs., comparable to latencies of low-end to medium range multiprocessors.
Numerical ray tracing in the atmospheric surface layer (1988)

A numerical ray-tracing model, including calculation of the sound pressure, was developed. It is valid for propagation from a point source in a moving, stratified atmosphere. Numerical integration of the ray equations was performed, and all rays reaching a specific point were found. Several expressions for the height dependency of the wind speed and the temperature were used, e.g., Monin–Obukhov similarity theory functions, the parameters of which were determined by use of a least-squares method. Measurements of sound propagation from a point source over finite impedance ground were made. Meteorological parameters were monitored simultaneously, wind direction and relative humidity at a single height, wind speed and temperature at five elevations. Comparison with the model was made out to a distance of 150 m. The agreement between the model values and those measured was good. The influence of the directional characteristics of the source was studied, and found to be very important.

Photogrammetric Techniques in Civil Engineering Material Testing and Structure Monitoring (2006)

Civil engineering material testing includes a wide range of applications requiring the determination of the threedimensional shape of an object and changes thereof. Large structure monitoring will often include the necessity of determining object deformations at a large number of points. Photogrammetric techniques offer a large potential for the solution of a wide range of measurement tasks in this field. A modular toolbox consisting of digital cameras, computer interfaces, illumination systems, calibration devices, combined with subpixel accuracy image measurement operators, multi-image matching techniques, and self-calibrating bundle adjustment in a suitable user interface, depicts a very powerful tool for tailoring custom-made solutions for material testing labs. Due to the wide range and the repetitive nature of measurements tasks in civil engineering, these applications could depict a significant future market for photogrammetry. This paper will briefly discuss the major hardware and software modules of a toolbox for civil engineering material testing and large structure monitoring. Based on several sample applications covering object dimensions from 10 cm to 500 meters, the potential of photogrammetric deformation measurement techniques will be shown. The major advantage of photogrammetric techniques can often be seen in the fact that they allow for highly automated measurements at a large number of points simultaneously. In many cases, object deformations can be determined at a precision in the order of 1:100,000 of the object dimension, based on off-theshelf hardware components.
Synthesizing transformations on hierarchically structured data (2016)

This paper presents a new approach for synthesizing transformations on tree-structured data, such as Unix directories and XML documents. We consider a general abstraction for such data, called hierarchical data trees (HDTs) and present a novel example-driven synthesis algorithm for HDT transformations. Our central insight is to reduce the problem of synthesizing tree transformers to the synthesis of list transformations that are applied to the paths of the tree. The synthesis problem over lists is solved using a new algorithm that combines SMT solving and decision tree learning. We have implemented our technique in a system called HADES and show that HADES can automatically synthesize a variety of interesting transformations collected from online forums.
A Web site indexing process for an Internet information retrieval agent system (2002)

Bonom is a distributed agent based system to perform information retrieval on the Internet. The middle agents which perform the matching between site agents (information providers) and user agents (requesters) are numerous and can be world wide distributed. Moreover, the agents are structured into nested communities according to a hierarchy of information domains. This paper focuses on a Web site indexing process which uses disambiguated ontologies. It allows the site agent to know to which communities it has to subscribe to, in order to get requests it can accurately process.

Approaches to Bacterial RNA Isolation and Purification for Microarray Analysis of <i>Escherichia coli</i> K1 Interaction with Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells (2005)

We established a protocol for isolation of microarray-grade bacterial RNA from Escherichia coli K1 interacting with human brain microvascular endothelial cells. The extracted RNA was free of human RNA contamination. More importantly, microarray analysis demonstrated that no bias was introduced in the gene expression pattern during the RNA isolation procedure.
Linewidth, tunability, and VHF-millimeter wave frequency synthesis of vertical-cavity GaAs quantum-well surface-emitting laser diode arrays (1991)

The authors report the measurement of the laser linewidth, wavelength tunability, and generation of microwave frequencies between individually addressable elements of a vertical-cavity GaAs quantum-well surface-emitting laser diode array (lasing in the wavelength range 850-865 nm). Using heterodyne techniques, the authors obtain a deconvolved 65 MHz laser linewidth from the 109 MHz beat signal. The laser linewidth corresponds to a semiconductor laser linewidth enhancement factor alpha =5.7, which is in excellent agreement with that obtained independently from optical gain measurements and corresponding calculated refractive index changes. The authors measured heterodyne beat frequencies of 2-20 GHz. The bandwidth was limited by the microwave amplifiers. A simple calculation shows that a tuning range of 65 MHz to 3 THz can be achieved.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Degradation of gain in bipolar transistors (1994)

In this paper hot carrier related aging of n-p-n bipolar transistors is investigated experimentally and theoretically in order to bring physical insight into the bipolar h/sub FE/ (common emitter current gain) degradation. Electrical stress experiments are performed on transistors with different base doping profiles at varying temperatures. Detailed process simulations are performed to determine the doping profiles of the base-emitter junction. Monte Carlo transport simulations are then performed at different temperatures and bias conditions to determine the electron and hole distribution functions in the base-emitter junction. AT&T's 0.8 /spl mu/m BICMOS technology is used to fabricate the experimental bipolar structures. For this non-self aligned technology we attribute h/sub FE/ degradation to the presence of hot holes and secondary electrons which are generated by hot hole impact ionization. This feedback due to impact ionization has a dominant effect on the high energy tails of the distribution of both holes and electrons even when the overall current multiplication is low. Simple hot electron energy transport models do not contain the complexity to properly describe ionization feedback and carrier heating, and are therefore inadequate. An exponential dependence of the transistor lifetime on BV/sub EBO/ is deduced for constant voltage stress (V/sub stress/<BV/sub EBO/) conditions, confirming the importance of secondaries in the process of degradation.<<ETX>>

Hepatitis B virus X protein transactivates human interleukin-8 gene through acting on nuclear factor kB and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-like cis-elements (1991)

Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a newly described leukocyte chemotactic and activating cytokine that belongs to the novel family of inflammatory cytokines whose genes locate on human chromosome 4, q12-21 region. The production of IL-8 is usually not constitutive and can be induced rapidly and abundantly in different cell types by a variety of stimuli such as lipopolysaccharide, interleukin-1, tumor necrosis factor-alpha as well as a tumor promotor phorbol myristate acetate. We report here that in addition to these stimuli the IL-8 gene can also be induced by the protein X of the hepatitis B virus (HBV-X) as evidenced by the enhanced IL-8 mRNA expression and IL-8 production observed in HBV-X-transfected cells. Furthermore, using several deletion mutants of the 5'-flanking regulatory region of the human IL-8 gene linked to the chloramphenicol acetyl transferase gene as a reporter, we have established here that both nuclear factor kB and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-like cis-elements located at -94 to -71 base pairs of IL-8 gene are essential and sufficient for the induction of the IL-8 gene by HBV-X. The same elements have been identified recently by us to be interleukin-1-, tumor necrosis factor-alpha-, and phorbol myristate acetate-responsive elements on the IL-8 gene. This suggests the existence of a common pathway for these inflammatory cytokines and HBV-X to activate the IL-8 gene. These observations might be relevant to the pathogenesis of inflammation in viral hepatitis.
T Lymphocytes Affect Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype and Proliferation (1995)

The effects of rabbit T lymphocytes on rabbit aortic smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotype and proliferation were investigated in vitro. SMCs seeded at confluent density in primary culture had a volume fraction of myofilaments (Vvmyo) of 49.8 +/- 2.6% after 3 days of culture, not significantly different from that of freshly dispersed cells (Vvmyo, 54.1 +/- 2.1%). Sister cultures of SMCs to which Concanavalin A-activated T lymphocytes or T lymphocyte-conditioned medium was added had significantly lower Vvmyo (35.5 +/- 2.2% and 31.6 +/- 2.3%, respectively) at the same time point. We have previously shown that a decrease in Vvmyo could be induced by the heparan sulfate-degrading activity of living macrophages and by commercial preparations of heparinase. While activated T lymphocytes also completely degraded heparan sulfate-rich 35S-labeled extracellular matrix (an effect inhibited by the addition of 10 micrograms/mL heparin), no heparanase-like activity was detected in T lymphocyte-conditioned medium, indicating that for this cell type SMC phenotypic change is induced by a different mechanism. Incubation of the T lymphocyte-derived cytokine interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) with freshly isolated rat SMCs caused a significant reduction in Vvmyo at day 2 in primary culture from 54.3 +/- 2.1% (control) to 35.4 +/- 3.0%. Furthermore, a neutralizing antibody specific for IFN-gamma removed the effect of T lymphocytes and medium conditioned by them, thus positively identifying IFN-gamma as the T lymphocyte factor responsible for this activity. T lymphocyte-conditioned medium was mitogenic for passaged (low Vvmyo) SMCs.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Finite element modeling of evaporation and condensation during sol-gel film and fiber formation (1993)

Free surfaces, multicomponent phase change, volume expansion and compression, and surface tension gradients make for challenging application of the finite element method to sol-gel (ceramic) film and fiber formation. The microstructure of the final product is largely controlled by the competition between the drying, curing, and underlying fluid mechanics of formation. Sol-gel materials are peculiar because they often contain more than one solvent, each solvent differing in volatility and surface tension. Hence, nonuniform evaporation can produce surface tension gradients that dramatically change the meniscus shape. These processes are complicated further by a volume change that accompanies evaporation and condensation, making for shock-like discontinuities in concentration and velocity at the free surface. Computer-aided predictions of film formation by dip coating and of fiber spinning (see Figure 1) are made for alcohol-water mixtures with one non-volatile species. The Navier-Stokes system is augmented with two convective-diffusion equations to track the concentration of alcohol and water, and an energy equation to monitor temperature changes. The equations are solved in both phases by discretizing them first with the Galerkin/finite element method. The resulting non-linear algebraic equation set is solved with Newton`s method. The subdomaining technique is based on elliptic grid generation and is designed to parameterize the moving meniscus. Special treatment of the functional representations of velocity and concentration within the elements lining the free surface are made to accommodate the volume change that accompanies mass exchange between phases.
