Android In-Vehicle Infotainment System (AIVI) (2012)

Travelling long distances by cars in the modern world has become bearable with the availability of in-vehicle infotainment systems that can entertain and inform both drivers and other occupants. One of the problems faced by application developers for in-vehicle infotainment systems is the lack of an open and standard platform across different car manufacturers. This research investigates the suitability of an Android operating-system to be used as a standard platform for developing an in-vehicle infotainment system. This integrated system will be used as both a source of information and entertainment.\n\nOur objective in this thesis is to build an integrated system that provides several infotainment services to the user such as playing music, GPS-based navigation services, road and traffic information and many more services available from third parties. This research thus aims to demonstrate how the Android system can be used as a stepping stone towards establishing an open-standard in the automotive in-vehicle infotainment industry. We believe a system such as ours will help reduce the closed, proprietary and non-extensible systems being released today and bolster the design and development of open, more complete, feature-full systems in vehicles that will not only assist but also entertain drivers and passengers.\n\nThis research consisted of three main phases. Firstly, the requirements of the system were obtained through a user survey. Secondly, an Android-based system was integrated based on the requirements specification. The integration effort required several software components to be developed and tested. Thirdly, a user opinion survey was conducted based on the features developed in our Android-based In-vehicle Infotainment (AIVI) system.
Cloud Application Portability with TOSCA, Chef and Openstack (2014)

As the sector of SaaS is being evolved, the need of portability and effective orchestration of Cloud-enabled applications over virtualised infrastructures is more apparent. In this paper we present a proof of concept (PoC) project together with industry partners which deals with the management of portable Cloud applications. Experimentation with a multi-tier Cloud application use case gives insights into the capabilities of the TOSCA specification (version 1). To realize support for a Cloud environment based on OpenStack and Opscode Chef, an environment that allows the execution and management of TOSCA service topologies has been developed. For the evaluation of the implemented system, we orchestrate the un-/deployment of the multi-tier Cloud application use case and in the end we discuss the results and experiences of this exercise.

Mortality and Neonatal Morbidity Among Infants 501 to 1500 Grams From 2000 to 2009 (2012)

Mortality and major neonatal morbidity in survivors decreased for infants with birth weight 501 to 1500 g between 2000 and 2009. However, at the end of the decade, a high proportion of these infants still either died or survived after experiencing ≥ 1 major neonatal morbidity known to be associated with both short- and long-term adverse consequences.
Synthesis and evaluation of novel pyrrolo[2,3-d] and thieno[2,3-d]pyridazinones as in vitro antiproliferative agents (2009)

Two different types of novel heterocyclic-fused pyridazinones like pyrrolo[2,3-d] and thieno[2,3-d] derivatives were synthesized starting from their isoxazolo[3,4-d] precursors by oxidative cleavage with CAN followed by cyclocondensation of the five-membered system using bi-functional nucleophiles. The final compounds were preliminarily screened in vitro as antiproliferative agents under the protocols of the NCI using three human cell lines of CNS, lung and breast cancers. None of the compounds was able to reduce the growth at value < 32% which was the cut-off for a more in depth in vitro screening.
On satisfying timing constraints in hard-real-time systems (1993)

The authors explain why pre-run-time scheduling is essential if one wishes to guarantee that timing constraints will be satisfied in a large complex hard-real-time system. They examine some of the major concerns in pre-run-time scheduling and consider what formulations of mathematical scheduling problems can be used to address those concerns. This work provides a guide to the available algorithms.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

Research Article: Relationships among vernal pool invertebrate assemblages with habitat morphology and distribution (2005)

The discrete nature of vernal pools provides opportunities for experiments revealing information applicable to numerous habitats otherwise more difficult to examine in their entirety. This study examines vernal pool diversity in relation to pool thermal regime, morphology, and inter-pool distribution. Using Island Biogeography theory, we predicted that (1) the number of species in a community should be positively correlated with habitat size, and (2) inter-pool distance should be negatively correlated with biological similarity. We developed two alternative hypotheses, based on the expectation that larger pools should be more thermally stable. These hypotheses ask whether thermally stable or variable pools facilitate invertebrate diversity. We studied eight vernal pools on Kennedy Table in Madera County, California. We took measurements of surface-area, mean depth, and volume of each pool, temperature was logged for four weeks, and invertebrates were systematically sampled. All data was analyzed with Pearson correlation or stepwise multiple regression. The results indicated strong negative correlations between average depth with temperature maximum and temperature standard deviation. Pool proximity and invertebrate assemblage similarity were positively related. There was no significant correlation between temperature variation and species richness. Species diversity was not significantly correlated with pool morphology. Our study suggests that vernal pools do not follow standard theories about species diversity. As vernal pools diminish, it is increasingly important for similar studies to continue and expand in order to better understand the driving forces behind their unique faunal assemblages.
Correlating Structural Dynamics and Function in Single Ribozyme Molecules (2002)

We have studied the correlation between structural dynamics and function of the hairpin ribozyme. The enzyme-substrate complex exists in either docked (active) or undocked (inactive) conformations. Using single-molecule fluorescence methods, we found complex structural dynamics with four docked states of distinct stabilities and a strong memory effect where each molecule rarely switches between different docked states. We also found substrate cleavage to be rate-limited by a combination of conformational transitions and reversible chemistry equilibrium. The complex structural dynamics quantitatively explain the heterogeneous cleavage kinetics common to many catalytic RNAs. The intimate coupling of structural dynamics and function is likely a general phenomenon for RNA.
An Improved Method for Signal Processing and Compression in Power Quality Evaluation (2004)

This paper introduces a new waveform coding technique, based on wavelet transform, for power quality monitoring purposes. The proposed enhanced data compression method (EDCM) presents a complete adaptive signal processing approach to estimate the fundamental sinusoidal component and separate it from the transient ones in the monitored signal. When these nonstationary components are submitted to the compression technique, the sparse representation property of the wavelet transform provides an improvement in the compression ratio. Also, the degradation inserted by the lossy compression process is minimized. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method when compared to the standard solution, characterized by the compression of the whole monitored signal.
Dependence of Seebeck Coefficient on Carrier Concentration in Heavily B- and P-Doped Si<sub>1-x</sub>Ge<sub>x</sub> (x≦0.05) System (1999)

The electrical resistivity ρ, the Seebeck coefficient S and the carrier mobility µ were measured as a function of carrier concentration n for B- and P-doped Si, Si 0.97 Ge 0.03 and Si 0.95 Ge 0.05 prepared by arc melting. It was found that at a high carrier concentration of about 2×10 20 cm -3 , the S values of the Si 0.97 Ge 0.03 and Si 0.95 Ge 0.05 samples with dopant segregations are about 50% higher than those measured previously on Si 0.95 Ge 0.05 , Si 0.85 Ge 0.15 and Si 0.7 Ge 0.3 samples with little segregation, although the differences between their ρ values are very small. The most striking result is that the S curves of the doped Si samples have a hump at a concentration of about 3×10 19 cm -3 , while no hump was observed for the Si 0.97 Ge 0.03 samples, as in the case of Si 0.7 Ge 0.3 alloys. Such a hump is surprising because it conflicts with the conventional theory that predicts a monotonic decrease of S with increasing n . This phenomenon is related to a change in the effective mass which results from dopant segregation.
Selective Hydrogenolysis of Bis(hydroxymethyl)aromatic Compounds (1992)

Selective hydrogenolysis of symmetric bis(hydroxymethyl)aromatic compounds has been performed over Raney nickel in alkaline solution for 24-36 h at 20°C. The yield of the corresponding monohydrogenolysis product was in the range of 75-96 %. The usefulness of the reaction was demonstrated by the synthesis of 4-(bromomethyl)benzoic acid.
<i>FRIGIDA LIKE 2</i>Is a Functional Allele in Landsberg<i>erecta</i>and Compensates for a Nonsense Allele of<i>FRIGIDA LIKE 1</i>  (2006)

The Landsberg erecta (Ler) accession of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) has a weak allele of the floral inhibitor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC). FLC-Ler is weakly up-regulated by the active San Feliu-2 (Sf2) allele of FRIGIDA (FRI-Sf2), resulting in a moderately late-flowering phenotype. By contrast, the Columbia (Col) allele of FLC is strongly up-regulated by FRI-Sf2, resulting in a very late-flowering phenotype. In Col, the FRI-related gene FRI LIKE 1 (FRL1) is required for FRI-mediated up-regulation of FLC. It is shown here that in Ler, the FRL1-related gene FRI LIKE 2 (FRL2), but not FRL1, is required for FRI-mediated up-regulation of FLC. FRL1-Ler is shown to be a nonsense allele of FRL1 due to a naturally occurring premature stop codon in the middle of the conceptual protein sequence, suggesting that FRL1-Ler is nonfunctional. Compared to FRL2-Col, FRL2-Ler has two amino acid changes in the conceptual protein sequence. Plants homozygous for FRI-Sf2, FLC-Ler, FRL1-Ler, and FRL2-Col have no detectable FLC expression, resulting in an extremely early flowering phenotype. Transformation of a genomic fragment of FRL2-Ler, but not of FRL2-Col, into a recombinant inbred line derived from these plants restores both FRI-mediated up-regulation of FLC expression and a late-flowering phenotype, indicating that FRL2-Ler is the functional allele of FRL2. Taken together, these results suggest that in the two different Arabidopsis accessions Col and Ler, either FRL1 or FRL2, but not both, is functional and required for FRI-mediated up-regulation of FLC.
Enhancement of Chemical Selectivity by Microreactors (2005)

Abstract This article provides a brief outline of the state of the art of reactions using microreactors with special emphasis on the enhancement of product selectivity. The efficient micromixing possible with a short diffusion path increases the product selectivity of competitive parallel reactions and competitive consecutive reactions. This concept has been expanded to control of the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution in carbocationic polymerization. The efficient heat transfer, based on high surface to volume ratios, allows precise temperature control and is also effective for the control of highly exothermic reactions, such as free radical polymerization.
Discovering New Enzymes and Metabolic Pathways:  Conversion of Succinate to Propionate by <i>Escherichia coli</i> (2000)

The Escherichia coli genome encodes seven paralogues of the crotonase (enoyl CoA hydratase) superfamily. Four of these have unknown or uncertain functions; their existence was unknown prior to the completion of the E. coli genome sequencing project. The gene encoding one of these, YgfG, is located in a four-gene operon that encodes homologues of methylmalonyl CoA mutases (Sbm) and acyl CoA transferases (YgfH) as well as a putative protein kinase (YgfD/ArgK). We have determined that YgfG is methylmalonyl CoA decarboxylase, YgfH is propionyl CoA:succinate CoA transferase, and Sbm is methylmalonyl CoA mutase. These reactions are sufficient to form a metabolic cycle by which E. coli can catalyze the decarboxylation of succinate to propionate, although the metabolic context of this cycle is unknown. The identification of YgfG as methylmalonyl CoA decarboxylase expands the range of reactions catalyzed by members of the crotonase superfamily.
Granulocytic sarcoma in non-leukaemic child involving maxillary sinus with long term follow up: A rare case report (2014)

Granulocytic sarcoma (GS) is a rare extramedullary malignant tumor composed of immature myeloid cells. It is strongly associated with acute myeloid leukaemia, chronic myeloproliferative diseases. Occurrence of GS in the oral cavity is extremely uncommon. Present case reported an unusual occurrence of GS without leukemia involving maxillary sinus of a child. The patient underwent chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy with complete remission. A long-term follow-up of the patient was carried without any evidence of recurrence with special focus on diagnostic difficulties. The present case highlights the perplexity in diagnosing such lesions with emphasis on the need of careful interpretation of all clinical, radiographic, histopathological and immunohistochemical details as it is one of the most frequently misdiagnosed disorder.
On over-the-cell channel routing with cell orientations consideration (1995)

Existing over-the-cell channel routers assume that the orientations of the cells are fixed. In practice, it is quite common that each cell can be horizontally flipped. This pin rearrangement flexibility should be used by over-the-cell routers to further reduce channel routing area. Given a placement of cells in multiple rows with pin terminals at the top and bottom edges of the cells and each cell can be flipped. The objective is to select an orientation for each cell and a set of net segments to be routed over the cells such that the final routing area is minimized. In this paper, we assume the HCVD cell model, i.e., power/ground buses run through the middle of each cell row horizontally and one layer is available for over-the-cell routing. For this model, it suffices to focus on over-the-cell routing for each individual cell row. We present a branch-and-bound optimal algorithm to maximize the total weight of the net segments to be routed in both upper and Lower over-the-cell regions. With minor modifications, our algorithm is applicable to simultaneously consider pin assignment and over-the-cell routing. The proposed algorithm has been implemented and tested on a set of industrial examples. Reduction in total channel densities of up to 37% was obtained using a reasonable amount of CPU time.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

ZPR1 Is Essential for Survival and Is Required for Localization of the Survival Motor Neurons (SMN) Protein to Cajal Bodies (2005)

Mutation of the survival motor neurons 1 (SMN1) gene causes motor neuron apoptosis and represents the major cause of spinal muscular atrophy in humans. Biochemical studies have established that the SMN protein plays an important role in spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) biogenesis and that the SMN complex can interact with the zinc finger protein ZPR1. Here we report that targeted ablation of the Zpr1 gene in mice disrupts the subcellular localization of both SMN and spliceosomal snRNPs. Specifically, SMN localization to Cajal bodies and gems was not observed in cells derived from Zpr1-/- embryos and the amount of cytoplasmic snRNP detected in Zpr1-/- embryos was reduced compared with that in wild-type embryos. We found that Zpr1-/- mice die during early embryonic development, with reduced proliferation and increased apoptosis. These effects of Zpr1 gene disruption were confirmed and extended in studies of cultured motor neuron-like cells using small interfering RNA-mediated Zpr1 gene suppression; ZPR1 deficiency caused growth cone retraction, axonal defects, and apoptosis. Together, these data indicate that ZPR1 contributes to the regulation of SMN complexes and that it is essential for cell survival.
ON GENERALIZED MULTIPLE-INSTANCE LEARNING (2005)

We describe a generalisation of the multiple-instance learning model in which a bag's label is not based on a single instance's proximity to a single target point. Rather, a bag is positive if and only if it contains a collection of instances, each near one of a set of target points. We then adapt a learning-theoretic algorithm for learning in this model and present empirical results on data from robot vision, content-based image retrieval, and protein sequence identification.
Novel nanostructured biomaterials: implications for coronary stent thrombosis (2012)

The nanotopographic features of material surface, stoichiometry, and wetting properties were found to be significant factors in dictating platelet behavior and cell viability. The TiBN films with higher nitrogen contents were less thrombogenic compared with the biased carbon films and control. The carbon hybridization in carbon films and hydrophilicity, which were strongly dependent on the deposition process and its parameters, affected the thrombogenicity potential. The hydrophobic CNT materials with high nanoroughness exhibited less hemocompatibility in comparison with the other classes of materials. All the thin film groups exhibited good cytocompatibility, with the surface roughness and surface free energy influencing the viability of cells.

Terrain navigation using Bayesian statistics (1999)

The performance of terrain-aided navigation of aircraft depends on the size of the terrain gradient in the area. The point-mass filter (PMF) described in this work yields an approximate Bayesian solution that is well suited for the unstructured nonlinear estimation problem in terrain navigation. It recursively propagates a density function of the aircraft position. The shape of the point-mass density reflects the estimate quality; this information is crucial in navigation applications, where estimates from different sources often are fused in a central filter. Monte Carlo simulations show that the approximation can reach the optimal performance, and realistic simulations show that the navigation performance is very high compared with other algorithms and that the point-mass filter solves the recursive estimation problem for all the types of terrain covered in the test. The main advantages of the PMF is that it works for many kinds of nonlinearities and many kinds of noise and prior distributions. The mesh support and resolution are automatically adjusted and controlled using a few intuitive design parameters. The main disadvantage is that it cannot solve estimation problems of very high dimension since the computational complexity of the algorithm increases drastically with the dimension of the state space. The implementation used in this work shows real-time performance for 2D and in some cases 3D models, but higher state dimensions are usually intractable.
