<title>Tensor products and hierarchical fitting</title> (1992)

We survey research in progress involving the hierarchical fitting of regular data to tensor product splines. The approach is suitable for data in any dimension and for splines in any number of variables.
Studies on Anti-cancer Agents. X (1963)

Compounds with nitro group in place of bromine in (2-bromo-4, 5-dimethoxyphenyl)-acetic acid hydrazide and related compounds were synthesized and their anti-cancer activity was examined. 5, 6-Dimethoxy- and 5, 6-methylenedioxy-oxindole, and 6, 7-dimethoxycarbostyril were found to have some anti-cancer effect against Ehrlich solid tumor by subcutaneous inoculation.
Polyaniline Secondary Cells with Ambient Temperature Molten Salt Electrolytes (1993)

An Al/polyaniline (PAn) powder secondary cell with an or an electrolyte has been investigated. The configuration of the Al/PAn secondary cell with an acidic electrolyte was: open‐circuit voltage , , . A 24% increase in the discharge capacity over a BPC system electrolyte is obtained. The difference was attributed to the electrolyte properties, i.e., conductivity and viscosity. In the basic EMIC system bath of 44.4 m/o , the redox potential of PAn was less noble and the reaction current was large. A PAn/PAn secondary cell with the acidic catholyte and the basic anolyte was proposed. The OCV showed 1.0 V and the PAn/PAn secondary cell was promising. A PAn prepared from a nonaqueous BPC system bath was more electrochemically active than that prepared from an aqueous bath. The optimum OCV, discharge capacity, and charge/discharge efficiency of the Al/PAn (from the BPC bath) were 1.6 V, 68 Ah/kg‐PAn, and 99%, respectively.
Infrastructure development and community expectations (1991)

Public Works in New South Wales is responsible for design and construction of public buildings such as schools, court houses, prisons, hospitals. It also has responsibility for policy development and provision of capital works for coastal and estuarine areas and country town water and sewerage schemes. Public Works spends some $1,000 million per annum and is well decentralised throughout the state. Although the range of infrastructure provided is both needed and wanted by the community, there is an increasing trend for proposals to be tested and challenged by individuals and community groups. Conflicts arise not so much on the project as a whole, but on key design aspects. For example, no-one usually challenges the need for a sewerage scheme or a school, but there is often heated debate on the method of effluent disposal or traffic flow arrangements. Public Works has no magic solution but has put considerable effort into making sure it s projects are environmentally responsible and that there is extensive community consultation and participation in decision making; well beyond that required by law. The Paper outlines activities which have heightened internal Public Works environmental awareness, including an active environment committee, a substantial procedures manual and the establishment of clearly defined review processes. It goes on to outline community consultation techniques which have been adopted with varying degrees of success. Suggested 'do's' and 'don'ts' are put forward and discussed. Efforts to establish an environmentally positive image are also mentioned. The Paper concludes that much good work has been done by a number of organisations, their proponents and governments, and also by the private sector, professional associations and indeed community groups themselves. The Paper's main aim is to contribute to and hopefully stimulate discussion which will lead to improvement in development proposals and decision making.
Treatment of homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia with probucol. (1982)

Ten patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia were treated with the recently introduced drug probucol (Lurselle; Mer-National) for 15-21 months. Xanthomas regressed or disappeared in most patients, angina lessened in two-thirds of cases and the ECG improved in half of those with pretreatment abnormalities. The mean fall in serum total cholesterol levels after 18 months of therapy was 27%. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels fell transiently in the early months of therapy but then returned to the pretreatment range. Plasma probucol levels varied between 20 micrograms/ml and 90 micrograms/ml, indicating good compliance, but did not correlate with the clinical or hypocholesterolaemic responses. Probucol was well tolerated by child and adult patients. The effects of probucol in this therapeutically resistant disorder were better than expected. Considered in relation to efficacy, safety, tolerance and convenience probucol appears to be the most satisfactory treatment for homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia currently available.
Study on Dynamic Variation Regularities of Regional Groundwater Depth Based on Complexity Diagnosis (2012)

In the course of analyzing and forecasting regional groundwater depth, its variation process complexity was ignored in the past, so that it was difficult to realize scientific management of groundwater resources. Aiming at the aforesaid defect, taking Jiansanjiang branch bureau as research platform, this paper diagnosed the complexity of each monthly groundwater depth series through using complexity measurement methods which include wavelet theory, fractal theory, Approximate Entropy and so on. The comprehensive measurement analysis results show that the complexity order of monthly groundwater depth series in the eighth district of Farm Nongjiang is highest in four farms of northern region. On that basis, the most complexity groundwater depth series combination stochastic forecasting model based on wavelet transform in northern region of Jiansanjiang branch bureau was set up. The model forecasting results show that local annual mean groundwater depth will be in a state of fluctuant lifting, and have considerable gap in comparison to groundwater ideal depth in the future. So, local government should reinforce the scientific management of groundwater. The research achievements break through the traditional study paradigm of hydrological forecasting, provide a research mode for studying regional hydrologic process, and provide scientific evidence for sustainable utilizing regional groundwater resources.
Smart middleware for mutual service-network awareness in evolving 3GPP networks network aware applications &#x00026; application aware networks (2008)

We have designed a smart middleware and are working on implementing and deploying it as a landmark architectural piece run by nodes of the Future Internet. The middleware we propose aims as a main goal at making applications and services fully network-aware in the sense that they utilize network resources and tune their own demands based on what the underlying networks can offer. On the other hand, the smart middleware makes networks service aware in the sense that networks also adapt their configuration to service demands. Challenges of the Future Internet such as scalability, increased interoperability, and smart collaboration between engines are addressed by our middleware. Focusing on 3GPP networks including IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) networks, this paper presents the architectural design of our middleware and shows in two showcases how and why it is capable of addressing future challenges. Scenarios such as service and network-aware coordinated load balancing and ldquoalways-best-connectedrdquo as a service verify the merits of our smart middleware design.
TapSense (2011)

We present TapSense, an enhancement to touch interaction that allows conventional surfaces to identify the type of object being used for input. This is achieved by segmenting and classifying sounds resulting from an object's impact. For example, the diverse anatomy of a human finger allows different parts to be recognized including the tip, pad, nail and knuckle - without having to instrument the user. This opens several new and powerful interaction opportunities for touch input, especially in mobile devices, where input is extremely constrained. Our system can also identify different sets of passive tools. We conclude with a comprehensive investigation of classification accuracy and training implications. Results show our proof-of-concept system can support sets with four input types at around 95% accuracy. Small, but useful input sets of two (e.g., pen and finger discrimination) can operate in excess of 99% accuracy.
A fuzzy neural network learning fuzzy control rules and membership functions by fuzzy error backpropagation (2002)

A kind of neural network architecture designed for control tasks is presented. It is called the fuzzy neural network. The structure of the network can be interpreted in terms of a fuzzy controller. It has a three-layered architecture and uses fuzzy sets as its weights. The fuzzy error backpropagation algorithm, a special learning algorithm inspired by the standard BP-procedure for multivariable neural networks, is able to learn the fuzzy sets. The extended version that is presented is also able to learn fuzzy-if-then rules by reducing the number of nodes in the hidden layer of the network. The network does not learn from examples, but by evaluating a special fuzzy error measure.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Osteoma of the Orbit (1961)

This case is reported because of the unusually large size of the osteoma. The tumor caused severe headaches and rendered the patient blind in the involved eye. After surgical removal of the growth, a visual acuity of 20/200 was obtained together with an excellent cosmetic result. <h3>Frequency of Osteomata</h3> Osteoma of the orbit is not a common tumor of the orbit. Reese<sup>1</sup>examined 109 cases of tumors arising primarily in the orbit and found osteoma in one case only. Benedict<sup>2</sup>examined 740 tumors or tumorlike lesions of the orbit at the Mayo Clinic and reported 38 as osteomas. Forrest<sup>3</sup>examined 184 primary orbital tumors and found osteoma in only 5 cases. <h3>Classification of Osteomata</h3> Osteomata are classified into 2 main types by Parsons<sup>4</sup>: (1) hard, eburnated or ivory osteomas; (2) soft or cancellous osteomas. <h3>Pathology of Osteomata</h3> Andrews<sup>5</sup>states that osteomata are usually spherical or
The Effects of Yerba Maté (Ilex Paraguariensis) Consumption on IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10 Production by Bone Marrow Cells in Wistar Rats fed a High-Fat Diet (2013)

An excessive consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) results in becoming overweight or obese, which triggers a chronic inflammatory condition that is associated with a high white blood cell count. Because of the potential for yerba maté (Ilex paraguariensis) (YM) to impact obesity, this study aimed to investigate the effects of YM consumption on the hematological response and on the production of interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and IL-10 by bone marrow cells from Wistar rats fed a HFD. Male Wistar rats were fed a control (CON) or HFD diet for twelve weeks. At the end of this period, the rats received YM (1 g/kg/day body weight) for 4 weeks. After euthanasia, hemograms and myelograms were evaluated, while the bone marrow cells were cultured in the presence or absence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to evaluate the production of IL-1α, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-10. The consumption of YM reduced the body weight, the body adiposity, and the cholesterol levels in HFD-fed rats. Bone marrow cells from the HFD group produced more IL-1α, IL-6, and TNF-α, and less IL-10, when compared to cells from the control group, and YM consumption reduced the IL-1α, IL-6, and TNF-α production by the cells. However, cells from the HFD rats that were stimulated with LPS increased their IL-1α, IL-6, and TNF-α production, but YM consumption did not change this result. In summary, the consumption of YM affects the production of IL-1α, IL-6, and TNF-α by bone marrow cells, promotes weight loss, decreases the number of white blood cells, and significantly improves serum cholesterol level in HFD-fed rats. However, the bone marrow cells from the HFD+YM-fed rats challenged with LPS did not show improvement in the inflammatory response compared to the cells from animals fed only a HFD that were also challenged with LPS.
Fundamental limits of DNA storage systems (2017)

Due to its longevity and enormous information density, DNA is an attractive medium for archival storage. In this work, we study the fundamental limits and tradeoffs of DNA-based storage systems under a simple model, motivated by current technological constraints on DNA synthesis and sequencing. Our model captures two key distinctive aspects of DNA storage systems: (1) the data is written onto many short DNA molecules that are stored in an unordered way and (2) the data is read by randomly sampling from this DNA pool. Under this model, we characterize the storage capacity, and show that a simple index-based coding scheme is optimal.
Solution Structure of the Human CC Chemokine 2:  A Monomeric Representative of the CC Chemokine Subtype<sup>,</sup> (1999)

HCC-2, a 66-amino acid residue human CC chemokine, was reported to induce chemotaxis on monocytes, T-lymphocytes, and eosinophils. The three-dimensional structure of HCC-2 has been determined by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics calculations on the basis of 871 experimental restraints. The structure is well-defined, exhibiting average root-mean-square deviations of 0.58 and 0.96 A for the backbone heavy atoms and all heavy atoms of residues 5-63, respectively. In contrast to most other chemokines, subtle structural differences impede dimer formation of HCC-2 in a concentration range of 0.1 microM to 2 mM. HCC-2, however, exhibits the same structural elements as the other chemokines, i.e., a triple-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet covered by an alpha-helix, showing that the chemokine fold is not influenced by quaternary interactions. Structural investigations with a HCC-2 mutant prove that a third additional disulfide bond present in wild-type HCC-2 is not necessary for maintaining the relative orientation of the helix and the beta-sheet.
Advanced bistable cholesteric light shutter with dual frequency nematic liquid crystal (2012)

In this paper, a direct switching between a transparent (or reflecting) planar (P) state to an opaque (or transparent) focal conic (FC) state and vice-versa of a polymer free bistable cholesteric light shutter without any homogeneous polyimide (PI) layer, is demonstrated based on the sign inversion of dielectric anisotropy of dual frequency liquid crystal (DFLC). The direct switching was achieved by applying square wave field at low (1 kHz) and high (50 kHz) frequency. As a result, the DFLC light shutter sustains bistable bright and dark states in electric field off state and exhibits excellent electro-optic performance. The direct switching from the FC to P states not only supports more uniform P state but also significantly reduces switching voltage by eliminating the high field homeotropic (H) state required for the switching in the conventional polymer stabilized cholesteric texture (PSCT) light shutter. The driving voltage applied to make a transition from the P to FC one is relatively low (3Vp-p/µm). Further, switching time from FC to P state was reduced drastically with homeotropic PI layer. Results show that dual frequency cholesteric liquid crystal (DFCLC) light shutter holds a great promise for use in energy efficient display devices and switchable windows.

A 402-output TFT-LCD driver IC with power control based on the number of colors selected (2003)

A 402-output thin-film-transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) driver integrated circuit (IC) with power control based on the number of colors to be displayed is described. To achieve this type of power control, reference voltage buffers are turned on and off according to the selected number of colors. In this architecture, the reference voltage buffers must drive 1-402 capacitive loads, corresponding to a capacitance of 30-12000 pF. Phase compensation using a zero formed with capacitive loads is proposed for the reference voltage buffers. The introduced zero has a fixed zero frequency for 1-402 loads. An operational amplifier with slew-rate enhancement is also proposed for the buffers. An experimental 402-output TFT-LCD driver IC was fabricated using a 0.6-μm CMOS technology. The chip size was 2.35 mm × 18.1 mm. The quiescent current dissipation of the analog section including decoders was 529 μA for 262144 colors, 182 μA for 4096 colors, and 112 μA for 512 colors for a 5-V supply.
Peptidoglycan and teichoic acid from<i>Staphylococcus epidermidis</i>stimulate human monocytes to release tumour necrosis factor-Î±, interleukin-1Î² and interleukin-6 (1993)

Cytokines play a major role in the pathophysiology of septic shock. In this study, human peripheral blood monocytes were stimulated with peptidoglycan and teichoic acid, purified from a strain of Staphylococcus epidermidis. Polymyxin B (PM-B) was added to avoid the effects of possible contamination with endotoxin. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the supernates were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Peptidoglycan and teichoic acid induced TNF, IL-1, and IL-6 in a concentration-dependent manner. Teichoic acid was a weaker inducer than peptidoglycan, especially for IL-1. Lipopolysaccharide from an E. coli strain was used as a control, being 100-1000 times more potent than peptidoglycan and teichoic acid.
Preparation of polyacrylamide gel‐filled capillaries by photopolymerization for capillary electrophoresis (1992)

Abstract A new preparation method for polyacrylamide gels in fused silica capillaries is described. In this method use is made of riboflavin as a light sensitive initiator for the polymerization reaction. Also, results from measurements on the diffusion coefficients of four oligonucleotides in a polyacrylamide gel are reported. Furthermore, a new preparative method to purify and collect oligonucleotides is presented. Separation performance of the gels was tested with various samples of oligonucleotides.
Nucleophilic displacement in polyhalogenoaromatic compounds. Part 9. Kinetics of azidodefluorination and methoxydefluorination of some polyfluorobenzonitriles (1978)

Pentafluorobenzonitrile and 4-chlorotetrafluorobenzonitrile do not show good second-order kinetic behaviour in their reactions with sodium methoxide in methanol. The reaction rate falls rapidly until a position of apparent equilibrium is reached, after which methoxydefluorination proceeds slowly to completion. This behaviour appears to arise from competition between methoxydefluorination and a reversible addition of methoxide ion to the carbon–nitrogen triple bond. The reaction of azide ion with polyfluorobenzonitriles does not show this competition. The sensitivity of azidodefluorination in methanol at 323.2 K to para-substituent effects in C6F5X, as shown by the Hammett reaction constant (ρ 6.2 ± 0.3), is slightly greater than that shown by methoxydefluorination under the same conditions, which is consistent with a less reactive and more selective reagent. The azidodefluorination of 4-substituted tetrafluorobenzonitriles, although involving attack at positions ortho to the cyano-group and meta to X, shows the same sensitivity to substituent effects (ρ 6.0 ± 0.5); this, in turn, suggests that the electronic effect of the cyano-group is less perturbed by the electron density of the ring upon which it acts than is the electronic effect of the nitro-group.
Einführung (2010)

Medienunternehmen stehen aufgrund des steigenden Wettbewerbsdrucks und der anhaltenden Dynamik der Rahmenbedingungen vor zahlreichen Herausforderungen. Beispiele hierfür sind die schnelle Imitation erfolgreicher Formate und eine daraus resultierende Markengleichheit, die Konvergenz von Produkten und Märkten durch das Verschmelzen der Informations-, Kommunikations- und Unterhaltungsindustrien und die Veränderung des Mediennutzungsverhaltens. In einem solchen Markt- und Wettbewerbsumfeld können starke Medienmarken einen bedeutenden Wettbewerbsvorteil darstellen, denn sie erfüllen sowohl aus Kunden- als auch aus Unternehmenssicht eine Vielzahl an wichtigen Funktionen. Auf dem Absatzmarkt dienen Marken als Orientierungshilfe, als Qualitätssicherungssignal und zur Risikoreduktion für den Konsumenten. Mit Hilfe starker Marken eröffnen sich für Unternehmen Möglichkeiten zur Durchsetzung einer Preisprämie, zur Profilierung im Handel, zur Differenzierung gegenüber Wettbewerbern und zur Schaffung einer starken Markentreue und Kundenloyalität. Darüber hinaus kann ein gutes Markenimage die Beschaffung von entscheidenden Inputfaktoren wie Autoren, Redakteuren oder Interpreten erleichtern.
