A second-generation sensor network processor with application-driven memory optimizations and out-of-order execution (2005)

In this paper we present a second-generation sensor network processor which consumes less than one picoJoule per instruction (typical processors use 100's to 1000's of picoJoules per instruction). As in our first-generation design effort, we strive to build microarchitectures that minimize area to reduce leakage, maximize transistor utility to reduce the energy-optimal voltage, and optimize CPI for efficient processing. The new design builds on our previous work to develop a low-power subthreshold-voltage sensor processor, this time improving the design by focusing on ISA, memory system design, and microarchitectural optimizations that reduce overall design size and improve energy-per-instruction. The new design employs 8-bit datapaths and an ultra-compact 12-bit wide RISC instruction set architecture, which enables high code density via micro-operations and flexible operand modes. The design also features a unique memory architecture with prefetch buffer and predecoded address bits, which permits both faster access to the memory and smaller instructions due to few address bits. To achieve efficient processing, the design incorporates branch speculation and out-of-order execution, but in a simplified form for reduced area and leakage-energy overheads. Using SPICE-level timing and power simulation, we find that these optimizations produce a number of Pareto-optimal designs with varied performance-energy tradeoffs. Our most efficient design is capable of running at 142 kHz (0.1 MIPS) while consuming only 600 fJ/instruction, allowing the processor to run continuously for 41 years on the energy stored in a miniature 1g lithium-ion battery. Work is ongoing to incorporate this design into an intra-ocular pressure sensor.
Far-infrared terahertz time-domain spectroscopy of flames (1995)

We present what is to our knowledge the first comprehensive far-infrared absorption measurement of flames. These measurements, covering the region of 7-88 wave numbers (0.2-2.65 THz) are only now made possible by the technique of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. We observe a large number of absorption lines-including those of water, CH, and NH(3)-in a stationary, premixed, propane-air flame. The absorption strength permits the determination of species concentration along the beam path. The f lame temperature is determined by comparison of the relative strengths of the water vapor lines.
Indigenismo, Nación y Política. Perú, 1904-1930 (2008)

Mediante el análisis de las proposiciones de tres pensadores del Perú —ManuelGonzález Prada, Luis. E. Valcárcel y José Carlos Mariátegui—, el autor ofrece unaexplicación del discurso del indigenismo producido en dicho país. Parte de unaafirmación: que el indigenismo es la expresión de un fracaso, la no conformación de lanación peruana, y advierte sobre la fragilidad de la institucionalidad y de la legalidadpretendidamente universal del Estado peruano. Más allá de las visiones románticas oidealizadas que se han forjado alrededor del ser andino, Gonzales propone que debemosentender al indigenismo como el producto y la representación de los conflictos noresueltos de la sociedad peruana, cuyas consecuencias se viven hasta el día de hoy.Finalmente, explica que el indigenismo encontró sus límites ante la imposibilidad –pordiversas razones– del sector indígena de convertirse en sujeto político, en ese momento,dice, cobra mayor relevancia el discurso del mestizaje.
Association of enzyme and transporter genotypes with the pharmacokinetics of imatinib (2006)

This study indicates that common genetic variants in the evaluated genes have only a limited impact on the pharmacokinetics of imatinib. Further investigation is required to quantitatively assess the clinical significance of homozygous variant ABCG2 and CYP2D6 genotypes in patients treated with imatinib.

Todos coinciden en senalar esta edicion del Festival de Cannes como la mejor de los ultimos anos. Cine de riesgo, de autor, de entranas con poderosa fuerza e inminente carrera comercial: la proxima temporada ha pasado ya por las pantallas de La Croissete. Y el panorama no puede ser mas alentador.
Cycloamylose-based Biomaterial: Nanogel of Cholesterol-bearing Cationic Cycloamylose for siRNA Delivery (2009)

Abstract A new siRNA delivery system made of a functional cycloamylose nanogel is reported. Cholesterol-bearing cationic cycloamylose formed nanogels by self-assembly in water. The nanogels formed 20–40 nm nanoparticles that bound to 21 bp siRNA. The complexes exerted an RNAi effect on SCC7-GL3 cells that stably express the luciferase gene.
Extended-shortwave infrared unipolar barrier detectors (2015)

The e-SWIR wavelength band is a performance gap for infrared detectors. At both shorter and longer wavelengths, high performance detector technologies exist: SWIR InGaAs detectors (1.7 micron cutoff), and MWIR (3-5 micron) detectors such as InAs-based and GaSb-based Unipolar Barriers, MCT, and InSb. This work discusses development of high performance e-SWIR detectors with cutoff wavelengths in the 2.7 - 2.8 micron range. Two approaches for e-SWIR detector absorber materials were evaluated, lengthening the wavelength response of the SWIR InGaAs technology and shortening the wavelength response of MWIR GaSb-based technology. The InGaAs e- SWIR approach employs mismatched InGaAs absorber layers on InP substrates, using graded AlInAs buffer layers. The GaSb-based approach uses lattice-matched InGaAsSb absorber layers on GaSb substrates. Additionally, two device architectures were examined, pn-based photodiodes and unipolar barrier photodiodes. For both of the absorber materials, the unipolar barrier device architecture was found to be superior. The unipolar barrier device architecture enables both types of device to be free of effects of surface leakage currents and generation-recombination dark currents. InGaAsSb-based devices show excellent performance, with diffusion-limited dark current within a factor of 2-4 of the HgCdTe standard, Rule 07. They achieve background-limited (BLIP) performance at T=210K, which is accessible by thermo-electric coolers. As expected, defects associated with latticemismatch increase dark currents of the InP-based approach. The dark currents of the mismatched unipolar barrier photodiodes are 30x larger than those of the lattice-matched GaSb approach, however despite the defects, the devices still exhibit diffusion-limited operation, and achieve BLIP operation at T=190K Further improvements in the InP-based approach are expected with refinements in the epitaxial structures. Both types of detector approaches are excellent alternatives to conventional e-SWIR detectors.
Effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine on the peripheral chemoreceptors in the rat. (1977)

5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), in the doses of 2-5 mug/kg injected into the carotid body area, produced a significant increase in the respiratory rate and carotid sinus nerve activity. Selective ablation of the ipsilateral carotid sinus nerve abolished the respiratory stimulation produced by the drug. On the other hand, the same doses of 5-HT injected into the ascending aorta did not produce stimulation of respiration when the carotid sinus nerves were sectioned. The activity of the aortic nerves did not increase after injecting the drug into the ascending aorta or at the root of the right subclavian artery. These results indicate that 5-HT stimulates the chemoreceptors in the carotid body of the rat. The lack of responses to the injections of the drug in the aortic or subclavian region was due to the absence of chemoreceptors in these regions of the rat.
TCM on Frequency Selective Land-Mobile Fading Channels (1992)

A power and bandwidth efficient concatenated coding system for reliable data transmission on time- and frequency--selective mobile fading channels is considered. Multi--tone signaling with spectrally overlapping pulses is achieved by orthogonal frequency--division multiplexing (OFDM). The inner coding/modulation system is trellis--coded modulation (TCM) consisting of two binary convolutional codes, outputting 16QAM symbols. This class of codes was found to be optimum in sense of complexity and performance on Rayleigh/Rician fading channels. A soft--output (Viterbi) decoding algorithm accepts channel state information, and even delivers reliability information to an outer decoder. The outer code is a rate--compatible punctured convolutional (RCPC) code providing unequal error protection (UEP). Concatenated coding in conjunction with double interleaving and slow frequency hopping (SFH) provides efficient dual diversity. A two-- dimensional pilot sequence multiplexed into the time and frequency sequence according to the sampling theorem allows a robust, truly coherent carrier synchronization, which can be realised, e.g., by a two--dimensional Wiener filter. Emphasis here is on sophisticated, yet reduced complexity channel estimation (CE) making use of the multi--tone structure and a--priori channel knowledge. The use of a guard interval circumvents the implementation of explicit equalization even under severe multipath distortions. Results (BER und power/bandwidth diagram) are presented on basis of a hilly--terrain land--mobile fading channel with f Dmax =200 Hz one--sided maximum Doppler frequency, max 64 s maximum echo delay, and system parameters (2 \\Delta 128 kbit/s data rate, bit sensitivity classes ranging from 5 \\Delta 10
More Imaginary Worlds: A Systematic Review of the Status of Modeled Cost-Effectiveness Claims Published in the Journal of Medical Economics from January 2016 to December 2016 (2017)

In 2016 a review of modeled cost-effectiveness studies published in the Journal of Medical Economics between January 2015 and December 2015 was presented in INNOVATIONS in Pharmacy. The purpose of this review, together with similar reviews for studies published in calendar 2015 in Value in Health and Pharmacoeconomics, was to consider whether these modeled claims for cost-effectiveness met the standards of normal science: were the claims made credible, evaluable and replicable? A total of 32 studies were identified. None of the studies presented their claims or projections in an evaluable form and none suggested how they might be evaluated. None met the standards of normal science. The claims made for cost-effectiveness were either impossible to verify, or if potentially verifiable, were not presented in an evaluable form. The studies lacked credibility. There was no basis for assessing whether the claims were right or even if they were wrong. The purpose of the present review which covers cost-effectiveness studies published in the Journal of Medical Economics between January 2016 and December 2016 is to revisit this question of the credibility of the claims made against the standards of normal science. A total of 40 cost-effectiveness studies were identified. Although 14 had a timeframe of 5 years or less and hand the potential to provide short-term evaluable claims, none addressed the issue of claims evaluation and the possible protocols that would support empirical assessment. Of the balance, 19 presented results as unevaluable lifetime modeled claims. The conclusions from the 2016 review remain unchanged.  Type: Commentary
Significance of the Conductor Radial Temperature Gradient within a Dynamic Line Rating Methodology (1987)

Transient and steady-state overhead conductor radial temperature differences were monitored indoors under controlled wind conditions and outdoors in a real-world setting with the intent of establishing the significance of the radial temperature gradient within a dynamic thermal line rating methodology. The study validates steady-state and transient conductor temperature difference expressions developed by General Electric and utilized within DOLMIRS (a dynamic thermal line rating software package developed for NMPC and ESEERCO of New York State). The study substantiates the relative importance of the conductor temperature gradient especially when meteorological factors such as wind or ambient air temperature become more favorable toward higher dynamic ratings.
New South Wales (1985)

Summary New South Wales easily retained its reputation as the State of commotion. Politicians and administrators during the past twelve months have lived through interesting times. Things are out in the open, at least. A rich and varied range of inquiries has been tackling problems which have remained hidden for decades. Hard items on the agenda of administrative reform are at last receiving attention. Courts and parliamentary procedures are being revitalized. The next great uproar will occur when the long‐awaited Freedom of Information Act arrives and provides ordinary members of the public with their own tickets of admission to the political and administrative arena.
Human CC10, the homologue of rabbit uteroglobin: genomic cloning, chromosomal localization and expression in endometrial cell lines (1992)

Human and rat cDNAs to Clara Cell 10 kDa protein (CC10) have been previously isolated. Comparison of the amino acid sequences showed that CC10 is homologous to rabbit uteroglobin. Here we present further evidence that human CC10 is the human counterpart of rabbit uteroglobin. We have isolated the gene and have mapped its genomic localization to chromosome 11q11-qter. Sequence analysis of the 5'-flanking region reveals that the homology between the human and the rabbit gene starts at the first exon/intron boundary and extends up to -1.4 kb. A second region of 0.74 kb from -1.77 to -2.51 kb in the human 5'-flanking gene region is homologous to rabbit sequences that include four progesterone receptor binding sites which have been implicated in progesterone regulation of rabbit uteroglobin gene expression in endometrium. Sequence alignment of this region on the nucleotide level shows that only two weak progesterone receptor binding sites are partially conserved. In addition, close inspection of the human and rabbit promoters reveals that the estrogen responsive element and two recently identified cis elements of the rabbit promoter located between -177 and -258 bp are also absent in the human uteroglobin promoter. Despite these differences in the 5'-flanking regions of the genes, we report that the human uteroglobin mRNA is expressed in a human cell line of endometrial origin indicating that human uteroglobin is expressed in the uterus like its rabbit homologue. Thus, it appears that human uteroglobin is not only a marker for lung Clara cells but also an endometrial differentiation marker.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Identification of genes modulated in multiple myeloma using genetically identical twin samples (2003)

Genetic heterogeneity between individuals confounds the comparison of gene profiling of multiple myeloma (MM) cells versus normal plasma cells (PCs). To overcome this barrier, we compared the gene expression profile of CD138+ MM cells from a patient bone marrow (BM) sample with CD138+ PCs from a genetically identical twin BM sample using microarray profiling. Two hundred and ninety-six genes were up-regulated and 103 genes were down-regulated at least 2-fold in MM cells versus normal twin PCs. Highly expressed genes in MM cells included cell survival pathway genes such as mcl-1, dad-1, caspase 8, and FADD-like apoptosis regulator (FLIP); oncogenes/transcriptional factors such as Jun-D, Xbp-1, calmodulin, Calnexin, and FGFR-3; stress response and ubiquitin/proteasome pathway-related genes and various ribosomal genes reflecting increased metabolic and translational activity. Genes that were down-regulated in MM cells versus healthy twin PCs included RAD51, killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor protein, and apoptotic protease activating factor. Microarray results were further confirmed by Western blot analyses, immunohistochemistry, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), and functional assays of telomerase activity and bone marrow angiogenesis. This molecular profiling provides potential insights into mechanisms of malignant transformation in MM. For example, FGFR3, xbp-1, and both mcl-1 and dad-1 may mediate transformation, differentiation, and survival, respectively, and may have clinical implications. By identifying genes uniquely altered in MM cells compared with normal PCs in an identical genotypic background, the current study provides the framework to identify novel therapeutic targets.
Wireless strain sensor through a flexible tag antenna employing inductively-coupled RFID microchip (2014)

Intensity variations of the backscattered power from an RFID tag have been demonstrated to be a potential wireless solution to measure material deformation. This paper discusses the design and performance of a flexible tag antenna equipped with novel inductively-coupled RFID microchip for use as a wireless strain sensor. Dielectric characterization of a flexible substrate has been carried out to properly design and simulate the proposed antenna design. Due to the balanced nature of this radiating element, differential scattering parameter measurements were performed to characterize the antenna input impedance. Finally, measurements of the backscattered power as a function of radial deformations are also shown as a qualitative analysis of the strain sensing capabilities.
Respiratory Syncytial Virus: Properties of Strains Propagated in Monkey Kidney Cell Cultures. (1964)

RS viruses recovered in 1962 were cytopathic on MKTC's. MKTC's were much more sensitive (80%) than HEp-2 cells. Seventeen of 24 isolates were revealed between the 3rd and 6th days post-inoculation. Growth curves in MKTC's revealed virus by the 7 th hour, with peak titers at 78 to 96 hours. Rotation yielded a 90% net increase of virus over those obtained in stationary cultures. RS virus is not stabilized by 1 m MgCl2. The virus can be maintained in 50% glycerin for at least 9 months of storage at ≥—20°C. Even at 44dGC the decay rate in glycerin is markedly delayed. Preservation in glycerin is superior to 0.5% gelatin or 20% chicken serum. Preservation was not enhanced by lyophilization.
In vitro transcription analysis of DNA alkylation by nitrogen mustard (1991)

A synchronized in vitro transcription assay has been used to probe the sequence specificity of alkylation of DNA by nitrogen mustard. Transcriptional blockages were detected with use of a 497-base-pair PvuII/SalI restriction fragment of a modified pBR322 vector when initiation of transcription was commenced after the DNA had been alkylated but not if the initiated transcription complex was subjected to alkylation before the elongation phase. The intensity of transcriptional blockages increased with alkylation time and was maximal after 1.5 h at a mustard concentration of 200 microM. There was also evidence of alkylation of the promoter region with increasing mustard concentration. The transcriptional blockage pattern changed at some sites as elongation time was increased and three types of blockages were observed-partial transcription (one or two nucleotides) past an initial blockage site, delayed but normal transcription past some sites, and complete termination at most sites. Eight of the nine blockage sites detected were at G or GG sequences on the template strand, with an apparent specificity for 5'-CTGT sequences of the template strand. Seven of the nine sites were capable of inter- or intrastrand cross-links, including three possible G-G interstrand cross-links spanning an intervening base-pair. In the 103-bp segment probed by this procedure, transcriptional blockages were detected (with one exception) only at sites corresponding to G on the template strand where inter- or intrastrand cross-linking was possible but not for similar sequences on the non-template strand.
Fabrication of Barium Titanate/Strontium Titanate Artificial Superlattice by Atomic Layer Epitaxy (1994)

Epitaxial growth of BaTiO 3 , SrTiO 3 and their superlattices was carried out by the alternating evaporation method using an atomic-layer-epitaxy control system for molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Stable and reproducible control of the chemical composition was achieved by layer-by-layer growth with this system. Both BaTiO 3 and SrTiO 3 were grown epitaxially on SrTiO 3 substrates, and clear oscillations of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) intensity were observed, corresponding to the alternating depositions of BaO and TiO 2 in BaTiO 3 growth. The artificial superlattice with the structure of [(BaTiO 3 ) 5 /(SrTiO 3 ) 5 ] 7 was fabricated, and the X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the superlattice was simulated by a step model. Diffraction angles of satellite peaks and the shape of Laue peaks in XRD patterns were consistent with those calculated, indicating that the designed structure was fabricated in the superlattice.

Aktoren auf Basis des magnetorheologischen Effekts (2005)

This work presents actuators based on the magnetorheological effect.Hereby materials consisting of a non-magnetic matrix and dispersed magnetic particles are used.Upon the application of a magnetic field they show a high but reversible change of their rheological behavior.This magnetorheological effect can be utilized in actuators.They materials present here are magnetorheological fluid and the solid analogue the magnetorheological elastomer.In this work the physical backround for understanding the effect is discussed.Experimental investigations on MR-fluids and MR-elastomers show new findings in the characterisation and in the case of the elastomers the productionmethods of these materials.Based on these results for each of the materials a concept and the design of an actuator prototype are presented.For the MR-fluids it is a semiactive vibrationdamper whose dynamic properties could be electrically controlled.Not only some modifications are presented but a simulation of the fluid flow which allows a prediction of the damping forces is shown.The actuator based on the MR elastomers is a mass damper, whose natural frequency can be tuned by changing the applied magnetic field.

Instrument redesign based on a validation analysis of the current product can deliver better performance and the elimination of fault modes. A new Coriolis mass flow meter transmitter, developed using audio technology, is significantly out-performing the commercial product from which it was derived.
Hybrid Approach to the Synthesis of Highly Luminescent CdTe/ZnS and CdHgTe/ZnS Nanocrystals (2004)

We report the synthesis of highly luminescent CdTe/ZnS and CdHgTe/ZnS core/shell semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). A hybrid of two synthesis routes leads to novel nanocrystal compositions and small core/shell sizes (4-5 nm) that emit in the far-red and near-infrared regions. These particles exhibit higher resistance to oxidation and photobleaching, have high quantum yields, and could be used for biological labeling and imaging.
