Cloud-based approach to increase the performance of execution of binary by using the separate debug file (2016)

A developer after developing the software transfer the binary to customers. When the program crashes and core dumps, the program needs to be debugged. For debugging using the debugger like GDB, requires the binary to have debug information in it. There are methods to embed the debug information to the binary. But this will increase the size of the binary. Sometimes the size of the debug information is more than the size of the binary. So we are separating the debug information from the binary and storing it in the separate debug file. And debug file name is added to the binary. But this debug file needs to be stored in the safer and easily accessible place to the debugger. So we are using the cloud as a storage space and providing the authorization to the debuggers. By making some modifications to the linker and debugger GDB we can make debuggers to easily access the debug file and debug the file. By separating the debug information from the binary, the size of the executable is reduced, thereby increasing the performance of program execution.
Monolayer graphene growth on Ni(111) by low temperature chemical vapor deposition (2012)

In contrast to the commonly employed high temperature chemical vapor deposition growth that leads to multilayer graphene formation by carbon segregation from the bulk, we demonstrate that below 600 °C graphene can be grown in a self-limiting monolayer growth process. Optimum growth is achieved at ∼550 °C. Above this temperature, carbon diffusion into the bulk is limiting the surface growth rate, while at temperatures below ∼500 °C a competing surface carbide phase impedes graphene formation.
Surface Characterization of Laser-Ablated Polymers Used for Microfluidics (2002)

Fabrication of microfluidic devices by excimer laser ablation under different atmospheres may provide variations in polymer microchannel surface characteristics. The surface chemistry and electroosmotic (EO) mobility of polymer microchannels laser ablated under different atmospheres were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and current monitoring mobility measurements, respectively. The ablated surfaces of PMMA were very similar to the native material, regardless of ablation atmospheres due to the negligible absorption of 248-nm light by that polymer. The substrates studied that exhibit nonnegligible absorption at this energy, namely, poly(ethylene terephthalate glycol), poly(vinyl chloride), and poly(carbonate), showed significant changes in surface chemistry and EO mobility when the ablation atmospheres were varied. Ablation of these three polymer substrates under nitrogen or argon resulted in low EO mobilities with a loss of the well-defined chemical structures of the native surfaces, while ablation under oxygen yielded surfaces that retained native chemical structures and supported higher EO mobilities.
Studies on Ergot Alkaloids and Related Compounds. XIII. syntheses and Stereochemistries of 4-Methyl-1, 2, 3, -4, 4a, 5, 6, 10b-octahydrobenzo[f]quinoline-2-carboxylic Acids (1966)

Ethyl trans-anti-, cis-anti-, and cis-syn-4-methyl-1, 2, 3, 4, 4a, 5, 6, 10b-octahydrobenzo[f]-quinoline-2-carboxylates (III, IV and V) were obtained by the reduction of ethyl 4-methyl-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-hexahydrobenzo[f]quinoline-2-carboxylate (II), and their stereochemistries were discussed. Some derivatives of III, IV and V in which C2-ethoxycarbonyl group was replaced by carboxyl, diethylcarbamoyl, hydroxymethyl and methyl groups were also prepared.
Advances in the Understanding of Phosphorus Silicate Glass (PSG) Formation for Accurate Process Simulation of Phosphorus Diffusion (2012)

The diffusion of phosphorus mediated by phosphorus oxychloride (POCl3) is extensively used in photovoltaics due to its enhanced diffusion speed and to the high controllability of the phosphorus at the wafer surface. However, the POCl3 decomposition in the gas phase in phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) as well as the subsequent oxidation reactions induced by P2O5 and O2 at the silicon surface are not very well documented and increase the complexity of a realistic simulation of the POCl3 diffusion. It is shown in this paper that the PSG growth model of Ghoshtagore [2] should apply correctly at least in a quantitative relative way to the PSG grown during a POCl3 diffusion. This model allowed to show that the PSG contains a thin layer of 8.6 nm, presumably composed of SiO2, which acts as a diffusion barrier with a subsequent impact on the phosphorus diffusion in silicon. In order to interpret ECV profiles of emitters obtained with various POCl3 flows, a qualitative model based on the Ghoshtagore model is presented. This model emphasizes the role of O2 at the silicon/PSG interface not only as a mediator of the PSG growth, but also as a generator of self-interstitials in silicon that will enhance the extension of the ECV profile tail. It also emphasizes the role of SiP precipitates in reducing the interstitial diffusion in silicon.
New insights in the molecular biology and physiology of<i>Streptococcus thermophilus</i>revealed by comparative genomics (2005)

Streptococcus thermophilus is a major dairy starter used for the manufacture of yoghurt and cheese. The access to three genome sequences, comparative genomics and multilocus sequencing analyses suggests that this species recently emerged and is still undergoing a process of regressive evolution towards a specialised bacterium for growth in milk. Notably, S. thermophilus has maintained a well-developed nitrogen metabolism whereas its sugar catabolism has been subjected to a high level of degeneracy due to a paucity of carbon sources in milk. Furthermore, while pathogenic streptococci are recognised for a high capacity to expose proteins at their cell surface in order to achieve cell adhesion or to escape the host immune system, S. thermophilus has nearly lost this unique feature as well as many virulence-related functions. Although gene decay is obvious in S. thermophilus genome evolution, numerous small genomic islands, which were probably acquired by horizontal gene transfer, comprise important industrial phenotypic traits such as polysaccharide biosynthesis, bacteriocin production, restriction-modification systems or oxygen tolerance.
Novel Kombucha Beverage from Lingzhi or Reishi Medicinal Mushroom, Ganoderma lucidum, with Antibacterial and Antioxidant Effects (2018)

Kombucha is a nonalcoholic beverage traditionally made by fermenting black tea using a combination of yeast and acetic acid bacteria (AAB) cultures. Ganoderma lucidum hot water extract (HWE) was used-to our knowledge for the first time-to prepare a novel, health-promoting kombucha product. During the 11-day fermentation, pH, total acidity, and the numbers of yeasts and AAB were monitored. It was found that sweetened G. lucidum HWE was a good medium for yeast and AAB growth. The desired acidity for the beverage was reached on the second day (3 g/L) of the fermentation process; the maximum established acidity was 22.8 ± 0.42 g/L. Fourier transform infrared analysis revealed that the vacuum-dried beverage is a mixture of various compounds such as polysaccharides, phenols, proteins, and lipids. Total phenolic content of the liquid sample was 4.91 ± 0.2338 mg gallic acid equivalents/g, whereas the vacuum-dried sample had a smaller amount of phenolics (2.107 ± 0.228 mg gallic acid equivalents/g). Established half-maximal effective concentrations for DPPH scavenging activity and reducing power were 22.8 ± 0.17 and 10.61 ± 0.34 mg/mL, respectively. The antibacterial testing revealed that activity does not originate solely from synthesized acetic acid. The liquid G. lucidum beverage was the most effective against the tested bacteria, with the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (0.04 mg/mL) against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Rhodococcus equi, and a minimum bactericidal concentration (0.16 mg/mL) against Bacillus spizizenii, B. cereus, and R. equi. The vacuum-dried sample was less effective, with the lowest minimum bactericidal concentration against the Gram-positive bacteria R. equi (1.875 mg/mL) and against the Gram-negative bacteria Proteus hauseri (30 mg/mL).
The interaction of convection and diffusion in the transport of 131I-albumin within the media of the rabbit thoracic aorta. (1985)

The interaction of convection and diffusion in the transport of 131I-labeled albumin within the wall of rabbit thoracic aorta was studied in vessels excised at in vivo length. They were pressurized with a solution containing no tracer and immersed in a solution containing labeled albumin. The label then entered the wall tissue via the adventitia and had to diffuse against the convective flux which occurred from the lumen to the adventitia. Experiments were performed on intact and deendothelialized vessels pressurized to 70 and 180 mm Hg. At the end of each experiment the vessels were subjected to sequential frozen sectioning parallel to the lumenal surface. The radioactivity of the 20-micron-thick sections was determined and expressed as a tissue:labeled solution concentration ratio. Transmural profiles of these ratios were thus obtained. The steady state was found to be achieved by about 90 minutes. When the convection was enhanced by removal of the endothelium, the average ratios were lower than when the endothelium was intact, and the profile was much flatter. The results suggest that convection influenced macromolecular transport within the arterial wall, even in vessels with intact endothelium.
Evaluation of Jet-Bit Pressure Losses (1989)

Summary An experimental and theoretical study was conducted to resolve discrepancies between observed and calculated pressure losses for fluids flowing through the nozzles of jet bits. The use of a nozzle discharge coefficient of 0.95, which is commonly used for roller-cone bits, results in the calculated pressure drop being up to 30% more than actually occurs, with the average error being 14.7% for 770 data points measured with nine different fluids. A relationship is presented to calculate the discharge coefficient as a function of borehole pressure, nozzle size, and mud density, which reduces the mean absolute error to 3% for these data points. Simply increasing the discharge coefficient to a constant value of 1.02 results in reducing the error to 4.1 % without using the more complicated relationship.

Plasma spraying-an innovative coating technique: process variants and applications (1990)

The use of plasma processing for spraying is reviewed, with emphasis on the material used, their sprayed structure, and successfully applied coatings. It is noted that new and further developments in plasma spray processes, spray devices, and spray materials have led to advantages in the realization of functional coatings and applications ranging from conventional to highly specialized industries. Different functions of the sprayed coatings can be achieved by choosing various plasma-process variations and any of a high number of useful coating materials. The plasma-spray process can be regarded as almost universal because of its inherently high process temperature, which allows almost unlimited combinations of coating and base material to be used.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
A novel RFID-based shipping containers location and identification solution in multimodal transport (2008)

In this paper, a new integrated solution is proposed through moving passive RFID and GPS equipment into shipping container to make the cargos and container monitored and located even if the container is loaded, stored, hoisted and transported. New solution can complete the function of not only passive RFID products identification but also active RFID container tracking of long distance. All kinds of customhouses, checkpoints and container dock themselves even don’t need to build RFID network to manage cargos and container, as all real-time information can be inquired through EPC network by authorized users. In addition, this architecture can completely solve collision problem and enhance the information security, automatic manifest, adaptability of geographic area and anti-theft.

Design Aspects of a Novel Topology Air-Cored Permanent Magnet Linear Generator for Direct Drive Wave Energy Converters (2011)

Direct drive wave energy converters are attractive due to the elimination of intermediate mechanical power conversion stages. Longitudinal flux (LF) linear generators with iron-cored stators have so far been dominant in experimental direct drive WECs, but suffer from high bearing loads and unwanted end effects. A novel linear air-cored topology is presented in this paper which eliminates most of the end effects associated with LF iron-cored machines as well as the attraction forces between iron-cored stators and magnet translators. The attraction forces between the opposing sides of the translators of double-sided air-cored machines are also ideally eliminated. An analytical model and an exhaustive optimization procedure for finding the minimum active mass subject to certain performance specifications are developed for the novel topology. Finite element analysis is used to verify and further analyze the model. First test results from a 1 kW experimental machine correspond well with designed values and confirm the feasibility of implementing the novel topology on a small scale.

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1): a new player in antiviral immunity? (2014)

The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM) family of protein receptors is rapidly emerging as a critical regulator of a diverse array of cellular functions, including amplification of inflammation. Although the ligand(s) for TREM have not yet been fully identified, circumstantial evidence indicates that danger- and pathogen-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs and PAMPs) can induce cytokine production via TREM-1 activation. The discovery of novel functions of TREM, such as regulation of T-cell proliferation and activation of antigen-presenting cells, suggests a larger role of TREM proteins in modulation of host immune responses to microbial pathogens, such as bacteria and fungi. However, the significance of TREM signaling in innate immunity to virus infections and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. The nature and intensity of innate immune responses, specifically production of type I interferon and inflammatory cytokines is a crucial event in dictating recovery vs. adverse outcomes from virus infections. In this review, we highlight the emerging roles of TREM-1, including synergy with classical pathogen recognition receptors. Based on the literature using viral PAMPs and other infectious disease models, we further discuss how TREM-1 may influence host-virus interactions and viral pathogenesis. A deeper conceptual understanding of the mechanisms associated with pathogenic and/or protective functions of TREM-1 in antiviral immunity is essential to develop novel therapeutic strategies for the control of virus infection by modulating innate immune signaling.
Coordinated power management of periodic real-time tasks on chip multiprocessors (2010)

In this paper, we undertake the problem of minimizing system-level energy on chip-multicore processors (CMPs) executing a periodic real-time workload. Our framework has two components: i.) a static phase that selects a subset of cores upon which the workload can be executed without dissipating excessive static power and performs task-to-core allocation, ii.) a dynamic phase that involves managing the selected cores at run-time through coordinated power management framework that exploits Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) as well as multiple idle states offered by modern CMP architectures, to reduce the dynamic power. We explicitly consider the unique traits of the currently available CMP architectures that distinguish them from multiprocessors, including the unique voltage level shared by the cores and its implications for DVFS. We identify the global energy-efficient frequency which indicates the minimum frequency level at which concurrent execution on multiple cores should take place to preserve the efficiency of DVFS. Then we propose two algorithms CVFS and CVFS* to minimize the dynamic energy consumption through concerted use of DVFS and idle states. Our experimental evaluation indicates that our framework can provide significant gains in system energy.
Kinetics and the On-Site Application of Standards in A Solid-Phase Microextration Fiber (2004)

The kinetics of the desorption of analytes from a SPME fiber into an agitated sample matrix was studied, and a theoretical model was proposed to describe the dynamic desorption process, based on the steady-state diffusion of analytes in the extraction phase and in the boundary layer. It was found that the desorption of analytes from a SPME fiber into an agitated sampling matrix is isotropic to the absorption of the analytes onto the SPME fiber from the sample matrix under the same agitation conditions, and this allows for the calibration of absorption using desorption. The calibration was accomplished by exposing a SPME fiber, preloaded with a standard, to an agitated sample matrix, during which desorption of the standard and absorption of analytes occurred simultaneously. When the standard was the isotopically labeled analogue of the target analyte, the information from the desorption process, i.e., time constant a, could be directly used for estimating the concentration of the target analyte. When the standard varied from the target analyte, the mass-transfer coefficient of the analyte could be extrapolated from that of the standard. These predictions agree well with experimental results. This approach facilitates the full integration of sampling, sample preparation, and sample introduction, especially for on-site or in vivo investigations, where the addition of standards to the sample matrix, or control of the velocity of the sample matrix, is very difficult.
Anaerobic biotransformation of contaminants in the subsurface. Environmental research brief (1991)

Anaerobic conditions predominate in contaminated aquifers and are common in noncontaminated areas. Comparatively little is known about degradative processes and nutrient cycling under anaerobic conditions. However, it is apparent these processes are fundamentally different and more complex than comparable aerobic processes. Research in this area is critical to our understanding of the fate of contaminants in the subsurface environment and for the design and operation of efficient and effective treatment technologies. The objective of the research brief is to report the current status of research directed toward defining anaerobic microbial metabolic processes which occur in the subsurface environment.
Determination of the Three-Dimensional Solution Structure of Noxiustoxin: Analysis of Structural Differences with Related Short-Chain Scorpion Toxins (1995)

The 3D structure of noxiustoxin, the first identified scorpion toxin acting on K+ channels, has been elucidated by NMR and molecular modeling. Thirty-nine solution structures were calculated using 572 distance and 42 dihedral restraints. The average atomic rms deviation between the refined structures and the mean structure is 0.75 A for the backbone atoms. Noxiustoxin adopts a alpha/beta scaffold constituted of a three-stranded beta-sheet (residues 2-3, 25-30, 33-38) linked to a helix (residues 10-20) through two disulfide bridges. A comparison between the 3D structure of noxiustoxin and those of other structurally and functionally related scorpion toxins (charybdotoxin, PO5-NH2, kaliotoxin) revealed a bending capacity of the helix and a variability in the relative orientations between the helix and the beta-sheet. These two features highlight the plasticity of the alpha/beta scaffold and offer a structural explanation for the capacity of the fold to accommodate an additional alanine residue in the Gly-x-Cys pattern of a previously proposed consensus sequence [Bontems et al. (1991) Science 254, 1521-1523]. Our structural data also emphasize the possibility that the beta-sheet of NTX is implicated in the capacity of NTX to recognize voltage-dependent K+ channels.
