Implementing Service Model Visualizations : Utilizing Hyperbolic Tree Structures for Visualizing Service Models in Telecommunication Networks (2009)

This paper describes the design, implementation and evaluation of HyperSALmon, a Java™ open source prototype for visualizing service models in telecommunication networks. For efﬁcient browsing and graphical monitoring of service models using SALmon, a service modeling language and a monitoring engine (Leijon et al., 2008), some kind of interactive GUI that implements a visualization of the service model is desired. This is what HyperSALmon is intended to do. The prototype has been designed in accordance with suggestions derived from a current research report of visualization techniques (Sehlstedt, 2008) appropriate for displaying service model data. In addition to these suggestions domain experts at Data Ductus Nord AB has expressed an urge for implementation of further features, some of their suggestions are deduced from research documents (Leijon et al., 2008; Wallin and Leijon, 2007, 2006), while others have been stated orally in direct relation to the prototype implementation work. The main visualization proposal is to use tree structures. Thus, both traditional tree structures and hyperbolic tree structures have been utilized, where the main navigation is set to occur in the hyperbolic tree view. In order to contribute further to this report I provide a discussion addressing problems related to the context of implementing a prototype for service model visualization using open source frameworks that meets the requirements set by the service model network architecture, the domain experts and the suggestions in the research report (Sehlstedt, 2008,page 51-52). Finally, I will present drawn conclusions of the attempted prototype implementation, illustrating potential strengths and weaknesses and consequently introduce suggestions for possible improvement and further development.

Uncoupling of Nonreceptor Tyrosine Kinases from PLC-γ1 in an SLP-76-Deficient T Cell (1998)

Activation of nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) is essential for T cell receptor (TCR) responsiveness; however, the function of individual PTK substrates is often uncertain. A mutant T cell line was isolated that lacked expression of SLP-76 (SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein of 76 kilodaltons), a hematopoietically expressed adaptor protein and PTK substrate. SLP-76 was not required for TCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of most proteins, but was required for optimal tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1), as well as Ras pathway activation. TCR-inducible gene expression was dependent on SLP-76. Thus, coupling of TCR-regulated PTKs to downstream signaling pathways requires SLP-76.
SYNTHESIS OF 2,15-HEXADECANEDIONE, A PRECURSOR OF MUSCONE, FROM BUTADIENE (1976)

Abstract 1-Acetoxy-2,7-octadiene obtained by the palladium catalyzed dimerization of butadiene in acetic acid was converted to 1-chloro-2,7-octadiene. Coupling of this allylic chloride with iron powder in DMF afforded 1,6,10,15-hexadecatetraene as a main product. Selective oxidation of the terminal double bonds to methyl ketones catalyzed by palladium chloride and cuprous chloride, followed by hydrogenation gave 2,15-hexadecanedione.
TWO EFFICIENT POLYMERIC CHEMICAL PLATFORMS FOR OLIGONUCLEOTIDE MICROARRAY PREPARATION (2002)

In this report we describe two robust procedures for oligonucleotide microarray preparation based on polymeric coatings. The proposed chemical approaches include: 1) a glass functionalisation step with appropriate silanes (gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane-APTES or 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane-GOPS), 2) a coating step using polymers (poly-L-Lysine or poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) copolymer) covalently bound to the modified glass and 3) a surface activation step to allow for the attachment of amino-modified oligonucleotides. Results obtained using these chemistries in oligo microarray preparation show: 1) an overall high loading capacity and availability to hybridisation against targets, 2) a good uniformity, 3) resistance to consecutive probing/ stripping cycles, 4) stability to thermal cycles, 5) effectiveness in hybridisation-mediated mutation detection procedures and 6) the possibility to perform enzymatic reactions, such as ligation.
Uranium Bioaccumulation by a <i>Citrobacter</i> sp. as a Result of Enzymically Mediated Growth of Polycrystalline HUO <sub>2</sub> PO <sub>4</sub> (1992)

A Citrobacter sp. accumulates heavy deposits of metal phosphate, derived from an enzymically liberated phosphate ligand. The cells are not subject to saturation constraints and can accumulate several times their own weight of precipitated metal. This high capacity is attributable to biomineralization; uranyl phosphate accumulates as polycrystalline HUO2PO4 at the cell surface. The precipitated metal is indistinguishable from crystalline HUO2PO4.4H2O grown by chemical methods.
Control of reactive power in double-fed machine based wind park (2008)

Different aspects of reactive power regulation problem in wind farms are presented in this paper. In the first part some background of the reactive power control in wind parks is presented, including motivations for its use and methods that can be used. In general, there are active (wind generator, compensator) and passive methods (L,C) of reactive power compensation. A simulation model of the wind park (model of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbines, transformers, cable lines between wind farm and PCC, control system). has been done to verify the efficacy of proposed methods. Conclusions about need and possibilities of reactive power control have been drawn From simulations in steady and transient state. Next features with special regards to limits of the DFIG working as wind generator are presented. In the final part of the paper selected methods of reactive power control are described and simulation results are presented.
Non‐Linearities in Electricity Demand and Temperature: Parametric Versus Non‐Parametric Methods (1997)

This paper investigates the relationship between outside air temperature and the residential demand for space heating energy. These non‐linearities are investigated empirically using high frequency panel data for a sample of UK households, and both parametric and non‐parametric methods for identifying non‐linearities are examined. The econometric evidence finds support for important non‐linearities across the range of observed temperatures and points to limitations in the use of parametric functional forms.
Code coalescing unit: a mechanism to facilitate load store data communication (2002)

Program behavior studies demonstrate that a significant fraction of load instructions in a program read the data stored by an instruction in the immediate past. In this paper, we propose a scheme entitled the Code Coalescing Unit that eliminates several of the memory access instructions by buffering the data in a Store Register Rename Buffer (SRRB) which is similar to the store buffer and renaming the instructions that use the data to access it directly from the buffer. The Code Coalescing Unit (CCU) can be considered as an extension to the fill unit proposed by S.W. Melvin et al. (1988). Their fill unit groups together micro-operations into larger atomic units and stores them into the decoded instruction cache (DIC) which are later executed directly from the DIC. The original fill unit grouped together micro-operations into larger atomic units, but the proposed Code Coalescing Unit goes further by eliminating particular load operations in the process of grouping together micro-operations. Experiments on eight applications including Microsoft Word for Windows, Microsoft C++ compiler and two SPEC programs demonstrate that approximately 25%, 34% or 42% of all load operations performed by these applications could have been eliminated using a Code Coalescing Unit in conjunction with a Store Register Rename Buffer of 8, 16 or 32 entries respectively.
Optimal Project Scheduling with Materials Ordering (1987)

Abstract A mixed integer 0–1 programming formulation of a Project Scheduling-Materials Ordering Problem (PSMOP) is presented that provides an optimal schedule of project activities and materials orders. It is proven that an optimal solution may be found by decomposing the problem into the derivation of the project schedule and the subsequent derivation of materials lot sizes.
Formaldehyde Formation in Large Bore Natural Gas Engines Part 1: Formation Mechanisms (1999)

Recent testing of exhaust emissions from large bore natural gas engines has indicated that formaldehyde CH2O is present in amounts that are significant relative to hazardous air pollutant standards. In consequence, a detailed literature review has been carried out at Colorado State University to assess the current state of knowledge about formaldehyde formation mechanisms and evaluate its applicability to gas engines. In this paper the following topics from that review, which bear directly on formaldehyde formation in natural gas engines, are discussed: (1) post combustion equilibrium concentrations; (2) chemical kinetics; (3) flame propagation and structure; (4) partial oxidation possibilities; and (5) potential paths for engine out formaldehyde. Relevant data taken from the literature on equilibrium concentrations and in-flame temperatures and concentrations are presented in graphical form. A map of possible paths for engine out formaldehyde is used to summarize results of the review, and conclusions relative to formation and destruction mechanisms are presented. [S0742-4795(00)00904-2]
Advanced Two-Actuator EUI and Emission Reduction for Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines (2003)

<div class="htmlview paragraph">A very flexible choice of fuel injection characteristics can be obtained with an advanced electronic unit injector that has been developed with two electronically controlled valves. Single-cylinder engine tests have demonstrated the potential of this advanced EUI system for a heavy-duty diesel engine. Substantial increases in injection pressure can be programmed electronically at individual engine speed/load conditions, compared with a baseline EUI system, to provide much faster rates of air/fuel mixing. Simulated US and European emissions cycle results, with the optimised two-actuator EUI and EGR, show substantially improved soot particulate versus NOx results and lower BSFC compared with a baseline EUI result. A high-pressure post injection has the potential to give further soot reduction.</div>
Smart Redundancy for Distributed Computation (2011)

Many distributed software systems allow participation by large numbers of untrusted, potentially faulty components on an open network. As faults are inevitable in this setting, these systems utilize redundancy and replication to achieve fault tolerance. In this paper, we present a novel "smart" redundancy technique called iterative redundancy, which ensures efficient replication of computation and data given finite processing and storage resources, even when facing Byzantine faults. Iterative redundancy is more efficient and more adaptive than comparable state-of-the-art techniques that operate in environments with unknown system resource reliability. We show how systems that solve computational problems using a network of independent nodes can benefit from iterative redundancy. We present a formal analytical analysis and an empirical analysis, demonstrate iterative redundancy on a real-world volunteer-computing system, and compare it to existing methods.

Sex Pheromones of Lepidoptera.1XXX. Disruption of Sex Pheromone Communication inTrichoplusia ni2as a Possible Means of Mating Control3 (1972)

Looplure ( cis -7-dodecenyl acetate), the sex pheromone of the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hübner), was released at various rates from evaporators spaced at various separations from one another in the field. Traps baited with virgin females were used to determine whether males could orient to the natural, female-produced pheromone when they were simultaneously exposed to the synthetic pheromone. An assessment of the percent mating of female moths that were tethered in treated and untreated areas indicated that this trapping technique may indicate the actual degree of communication disruption among wild moths in the field. A greater than 80% reduction in trapped males was obtained when looplure was released at rates as low as 0.1 mg/hectare per night. This disruption of male:female communication appeared to be independent of moth population density. Disruption was obtained at lower looplure release rates in a cool, low-wind, coastal environment than in a hot, erratically windy, desert environment.
<i>CCoAOMT</i> suppression modifies lignin composition in <i>Pinus radiata</i> (2011)

A cDNA clone encoding the lignin-related enzyme caffeoyl CoA 3-O-methyltransferase (CCoAOMT) was isolated from a Pinus radiata cDNA library derived from differentiating xylem. Suppression of PrCCoAOMT expression in P. radiata tracheary element cultures affected lignin content and composition, resulting in a lignin polymer containing p-hydroxyphenyl (H), catechyl (C) and guaiacyl (G) units. Acetyl bromide-soluble lignin assays revealed reductions in lignin content of up to 20% in PrCCoAOMT-deficient transgenic lines. Pyrolysis-GC/MS and 2D-NMR studies demonstrated that these reductions were due to depletion of G-type lignin. Correspondingly, the proportion of H-type lignin in PrCCoAOMT-deficient transgenic lines increased, resulting in up to a 10-fold increase in the H/G ratio relative to untransformed controls. 2D-NMR spectra revealed that PrCCoAOMT suppression resulted in formation of benzodioxanes in the lignin polymer. This suggested that phenylpropanoids with an ortho-diphenyl structure such as caffeyl alcohol are involved in lignin polymerization. To test this hypothesis, synthetic lignins containing methyl caffeate or caffeyl alcohol were generated and analyzed by 2D-NMR. Comparison of the 2D-NMR spectra from PrCCoAOMT-RNAi lines and synthetic lignins identified caffeyl alcohol as the new lignin constituent in PrCCoAOMT-deficient lines. The incorporation of caffeyl alcohol into lignin created a polymer containing catechyl units, a lignin type that has not been previously identified in recombinant lignin studies. This finding is consistent with the theory that lignin polymerization is based on a radical coupling process that is determined solely by chemical processes.
Comprehensive Facial Performance Capture (2011)

Abstract We present a system for recording a live dynamic facial performance, capturing highly detailed geometry and spatially varying diffuse and specular reflectance information for each frame of the performance. The result is a reproduction of the performance that can be rendered from novel viewpoints and novel lighting conditions, achieving photorealistic integration into any virtual environment. Dynamic performances are captured directly, without the need for any template geometry or static geometry scans, and processing is completely automatic, requiring no human input or guidance. Our key contributions are a heuristic for estimating facial reflectance information from gradient illumination photographs, and a geometry optimization framework that maximizes a principled likelihood function combining multi‐view stereo correspondence and photometric stereo, using multi‐resolution belief propagation. The output of our system is a sequence of geometries and reflectance maps, suitable for rendering in off‐the‐shelf software. We show results from our system rendered under novel viewpoints and lighting conditions, and validate our results by demonstrating a close match to ground truth photographs.
Hormone replacement therapy in postmenopausal women. (2003)

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is effective for relieving vasomotor symptoms such as hot flash and vaginal atrophy and for preventing bone loss in postmenopausal and bilaterally ovariectomized women. However, compliance with HRT was reported to be low despite the benefits of HRT. In addition, results of several recent large-scale randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that protection from cardiovascular disease is not an indication for treatment with estrogen and progestin in postmenopausal women. Recent studies have demonstrated that low-dose HRT is safe and effective for prevention of postmenopausal bone loss. Low-dose HRT has also been shown to be effective for reducing the number and severity of hot flashes, improving vaginal atrophy, and inducing favorable changes in lipids, lipoproteins and hemostatic factors. Moreover, low-dose regimens of CEE (conjugated equine estrogen) and MPA (medroxyprogesterone acetate) result in higher rates of amenorrhea and endometrial protection compared with the conventional dose of HRT. Low-dose HRT may improve the compliance rate and may be more effective than conventional-dose HRT for reducing the risk of breast cancer. On the other hand, it has been shown that transdermal estrogen treatment reduces the incidence and severity of hot flashes and that long-term treatment with transdermally administered estrogen is effective for protection against osteoporosis. Transdermal administration of estrogen is recommended in postmenopausal women with hypertriglycemia because this treatment has little effect on lipid metabolism. The serum estradiol level was reported to be closely related to estrogenic effects on various tissues. An HRT regimen should be based on the needs of each patient. Serum estradiol levels in women should be maintained at appropriate levels for benefits and not be excessively high in order to prevent side effects. Selection of the most appropriate regimen of HRT (dose, route of administration and schedule) for the needs of the individual are important factors to increase the rate of continuation with HRT.
Hydrogen/oxygen polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) based on acid-doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) (2000)

The potential-current characteristics of a H 2 /O 2 polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell using H 2 SO 4 or H 3 PO 4 doped PBI were studied for the first time. The conditions involved in the doping of PBI with sulphuric acid or phosphoric acid and the preparation of a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) using these membranes were determined. The potential-current fuel-cell characteristics of MEAs using H 2 SO 4 -doped PBI were compared to those of MEAs using Nafion 117. The effects of membrane doping and of drying times on the fuel-cell performances of MEAs based on PBI doped with sulphuric acid in various conditions were determined. It was shown that MEAs based on H 2 SO 4 - doped PBI and non-humidified exhibited higher fuel-cell characteristics than MEAs based on Nafion 17. The fuel-cell characteristics of MEAs based on phosphoric-acid-doped PBI exhibited high performances at 185 oC even with fuelled with hydrogen containing 3% CO.
Occurrence of the bacteriophage lambda receptor in some enterobacteriaceae (1975)

In Escherichia coli K-12, the receptor for phage lambda is an outer membrane protein which inactivates the phage in vitro. Lambda receptor activity was found in extracts from all wild strains of E. coli tested, although most of them fail to support growth of the phage. In some cases this failure is due to a masking of the receptor in vivo, the bacteria being unable to adsorb the phage or to react with antireceptor antibodies. In other cases, adsorption does occur, and the nature of the block in phage growth was not investigated. Most Mal+ strains of Shigella have lambda receptor, whereas most Mal- strains do not have it. Synthesis of the lambda receptor in Shigella is thus presumably controlled by the positive regulator gene of the maltose regulon as is the case in E. coli K-12. Phage lambda adsorbs on many Mal+ strains of Shigella and even yields plaques on some of them, although at a low frequency. No lambda receptor activity could be found in extracts of several strains of Salmonella and Levinea.
The effect of intraischemic mild hypothermia on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. (2001)

It is suggested that localized mild hypothermia may be a protective against focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury and that the decreased nitric oxide production in the brain may serve as the protective mechanism of hypothermia.

Enhancing verbal episodic memory in older and young subjects after non-invasive brain stimulation (2013)

Memory is the capacity to store, maintain, and retrieve events or information from the mind. Difficulties in verbal episodic memory commonly occur in healthy aging. In this paper, we assess the hypothesis that anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) applied over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) or over the parietal cortex (PARC) could facilitate verbal episodic memory in a group of 32 healthy older adults and in a group of 32 young subjects relative to a sham stimulation using a single-blind randomized controlled design. Each participant underwent two sessions of anodal tDCS (left and right) and one session of sham stimulation. Overall, our results demonstrated that, in young and in older subjects, anodal tDCS applied during the retrieval phase facilitates verbal episodic memory. In particular, we found that tDCS applied over the left and right regions (DLPFC and PARC) induced better performance in young participants; only tDCS applied over the left regions (DLPFC and PARC) increased retrieval in older subjects. These results suggest that anodal tDCS can be a relevant tool to modulate the long-term episodic memory capacities of young and older subjects.
