Derivation and Maintenance of Virtual Memory CD8 T Cells (2012)

Memory CD8(+) T cells are an important component of the adaptive immune response against many infections, and understanding how Ag-specific memory CD8(+) T cells are generated and maintained is crucial for the development of vaccines. We recently reported the existence of memory-phenotype, Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells in unimmunized mice (virtual memory or VM cells). However, it was not clear when and where these cells are generated during normal development, nor the factors required for their production and maintenance. This issue is especially pertinent given recent data showing that memory-like CD8 T cells can be generated in the thymus, in a bystander response to IL-4. In this study, we show that the size of the VM population is reduced in IL-4R-deficient animals. However, the VM population appears first in the periphery and not the thymus of normal animals, suggesting this role of IL-4 is manifest following thymic egress. We also show that the VM pool is durable, showing basal proliferation and long-term maintenance in normal animals, and also being retained during responses to unrelated infection.

Then Protocols and technologies in future use and success factors are described. At last this paper brings forward future work.
A nitrogen ion laser pumped by charge transfer (1974)

The first nitrogen ion laser pumped by charge transfer from He2+ is reported in this work. Intense laser emission in the violet at 427 nm has been observed and found to have a linewidth less than 0.3 nm. The pumping ion, He2+, was produced by discharge of a fast-pulsed electron beam gun, APEX-1, into 7 atm of a mixture of helium and nitrogen. Excitation current densities were 1.4 kA/cm2 at 1 MV over a 1 × 10 cm transverse geometry. Under these conditions, the efficiency of the emission of 427-nm laser radiation was found to be 1.9% relative to the energy lost by the electron beam in the radiating volume.
Stray light suppression in spectroscopy using periodic shadowing (2014)

It is well known that spectroscopic measurements suffer from an interference known as stray light, causing spectral distortion that reduces measurement accuracy. In severe situations, stray light may even obscure the existence of spectral lines. Here a novel general method is presented, named Periodic Shadowing, that enables effective stray light elimination in spectroscopy and experimental results are provided to demonstrate its capabilities and versatility. Besides its efficiency, implementing it in a spectroscopic arrangement comes at virtually no added experimental complexity.
A hybrid gene to express protein epitopes from both sporozoite and merozoite surface antigens of <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> (1988)

The DNA coding for parts of the repetitive amino acid sequence of Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein has been spliced to a sequence encoding part of the precursor to the major merozoite surface antigens, to produce a hybrid gene. Expression in Escherichia coli produces a protein with antigenic determinants from both malaria proteins. Antibodies raised against the expressed material react with both a peptide derived from the circumsporozoite repeat sequence, and the merozoite surface molecule. Hybrid molecules of this type may be the basis of a malaria vaccine.
High Yield Expression and Secretion of the Ovine Pregnancy Recognition Hormone Interferon-τ by <i>Pichia pastoris</i> (1996)

The early conceptus (embryo and associated membranes) of domestic ruminats signals its presence to the maternal uterus through production of interferon-tau (IFN-tau). Production of IFN-tau ensures continued production of progesterone, the hormone of pregnancy, by the ovarian corpus luteum. This paper reports the high-level expression and efficient secretion of biologically active recombinant ovine IFN-tau (rOvIFN-tau) by Pichia pastoris. The developed method produces more than 80% pure recombinant ovine IFN-tau, obviating the need for further purification for many purposes. Initial fermentation studies produced IFN-tau at 280 mg/liter and demonstrate the potential of this system for large-scale production of IFN-tau.
An information-theoretic approach to autonomous navigation and guidance of an uninhabited aerial vehicle in unknown environments (2005)

This paper presents an intelligent, on-line guidance scheme for maximising vehicle navigation and snap information for an uninhabited aerial vehicle while operating over unknown terrain. The tasks of localisation and mapping are performed concurrently using the well known extended Kalman filter implementation of the simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) algorithm. A guidance scheme is formulated using vehicle actions in order to maximise the quality of the resulting vehicle pose estimates and environment map by maximising the entropic information in vehicle and map estimates. Results are presented using a high-fidelity six-degree of freedom simulation of an aerial vehicle using inertial navigation and a range/hearing sensor.
Aspirin for Primary Prevention of Coronary Events (2002)

A 45-year-old man with a strong family history of premature heart disease has no symptoms of coronary disease and a normal electrocardiogram. His fasting level of total cholesterol is 225 mg per deciliter, the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level is 160 mg per deciliter, and the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level is 35 mg per deciliter. He has no history of hypertension and does not smoke cigarettes. Should he be advised to take aspirin to reduce his risk of myocardial infarction?
The pragmatics of model-driven development (2003)

The potential benefits of using models are significantly greater in software than in other engineering disciplines because of the potential for a seamless link between models and the systems they represent. Unfortunately, models have rarely produced anticipated benefits. The key lies in resolving pragmatic issues related to the artifacts and culture of the previous generation of software technologies.
On Maximizing iSCSI Throughput Using Multiple Connections with Automatic Parallelism Tuning (2008)

In this paper, we propose an iSCSI-APT (iSCSI with automatic parallelism tuning) that maximizes iSCSI throughput in long-fat networks. In recent years, as a protocol for building SANs (Storage Area Networks), iSCSI has been attracting attention for its low cost and high compatibility with existing networking infrastructure. However, it has been known that iSCSI throughput degrades in a long-fat network. iSCSI supports a feature called multiple connections, which allows data delivery over multiple TCP connections in a single session. However, for effective utilization of the multiple connections feature, the number of multiple connections must be appropriately configured according to the network status. In this paper, we propose the iSCSI-APT that automatically adjusts the number of multiple connections according to the network status. Through experiments using our iSCSI-APT implementation, we demonstrate that iSCSI-APT operates quite effectively regardless of the network delay.
Transduction-Mediated Transfer of Unmarked Deletion and Point Mutations through Use of Counterselectable Suicide Vectors (2002)

A challenge in strain construction is that unmarked deletion and nucleotide substitution alleles generally do not confer selectable phenotypes. We describe here a rapid and efficient strategy for transferring such alleles via generalized transduction. The desired allele is first constructed and introduced into the chromosome by conventional allelic-exchange methods. The suicide vector containing the same allele is then integrated into the mutant chromosome, generating a tandem duplication homozygous for that allele. The resulting strain is used as a donor for transductional crosses, and selection is made for a marker carried by the integrated suicide vector. Segregation of the tandem duplication results in haploid individuals, each of which carries the desired allele. To demonstrate this mutagenesis strategy, we used bacteriophage P22HTint for generalized transduction-mediated introduction of unmarked mutations to Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. This method is applicable to any species for which generalized transduction is established.
Activation of Implanted n-Type Dopants in Ge Over the Active Concentration of 1×10[sup 20] cm[sup −3] Using Coimplantation of Sb and P (2009)

One of the greatest challenges in fabricating a Ge-channel n-MOSFET is achieving a high n-type dopant activation within the source and drain regions. Conventional approaches to increase the electrically active doping level have been proven to be unsatisfactory, and typically the highest activation of n-type dopants is using phosphorus. This article describes a method to enhance the activation level of n-type dopants in Ge. Coimplantation of phosphorus and antimony leads to dopant activation over at . The enhancement of n-type dopant activation is attributed to reducing the implantation damage upon annealing due to increase in solid solubility of the dopants.
An operation for chronic prepatellar bursitis (1976)

An operation for chronic prepatellar bursitis is described in which only the posterior wall of the bursa is excised, thus preserving, undamaged, healthy and normally sensitive skin. This procedure is easier and less traumatic than complete excision of the bursa and results in fewer complications. It is suggested that removal of tha anterior wall of the bursa results in unnecessary and harmful interference with the underlying skin. The operation described gives a good functional and structural result; leaving the anterior wall of the bursa does not predispose to recurrence.
Fractionation of Some Bovine Whey Proteins by Recycling Gel Filtration on a Large Scale (1975)

Fractionation of bovine whey concentrate was performed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 both on a laboratory scale and on a large scale. By a recycling procedure and improved separation was obtained and the whey proteins were resolved into four fractions in the weight ratio 3:12:1:4. The fractions were analysed by polyacrylamide gel (PAG) electrophoresis and the apparent molecular weights were determined by thin layer gel chromatography (TLG) and by sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis.
The prognostic significance of margin width for extremity and trunk sarcoma (2004)

Margins > or =10 mm independently predicted longer LRFI and are optimal for extremity STS resection. Adjuvant radiotherapy should be considered for all STS resected with margins <10 mm, and margin width should be considered when reporting and interpreting LR outcomes for these patients.
Automatic Template Matching for Classification of Dolphin Vocalizations (2008)

Whistle classification is a key step in many studies of dolphin vocalizations. Automatic whistles tracing algorithms have been developed but tracing errors such as breaks and outliers are usually unavoidable. Local variations of whistle contours occur even in whistles of the same type. In this paper, we describe a modified dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm for dynamic non-linear matching. It exhibits a good performance in matching against a template whistle. The modifications to the basic DTW algorithm provide improved tolerance to noise and breaks in tracing. Together with automatic de-noising, this template matching is used to classify vocalizations of Indo-Pacific dolphins (Sousa chinensis). We believe this method can be applied for large scale analysis of whistles for species recognition, dolphin training and other dolphin studies.
Differential Methylation as a Cause of Allele Dropout at the Imprinted <i>GNAS</i> Locus (2010)

For the first time, we report that differential methylation of imprinted regions can lead to preferential amplification of unmethylated alleles. Addition of coadjuvants to the PCR may facilitate amplification of both alleles, providing an accurate genotyping in cases with methylation-related diseases.
An efficient mulithreading algorithm for the simulation of global illumination (2017)

The calculation of global illumination taking into account not only the direct light but also all its possible reflections is an important part of the synthesis of realistic images. The simulation of global illumination requires a lot of computational resources. The performance of modern computers directly depends on the number of cores, which allow one to use tens of parallel computation threads. The paper is devoted to the effective use of multicore computers for simulating the global illumination. The computation results are represented in a uniform illumination map. The proposed algorithm dynamically creates additional threads for the critical branches of the computation process or processing of results. As a result, the uniform load of computation threads as achieved, and the physical and virtual cores are fully loaded.
A Programmable Service Architecture for Mobile Medical Care (2006)

This paper introduces MobiCare - a novel service architecture that enables a wide range of health-related services for efficient and mobile patient care. These services include: (1) health-related services in medical devices and sensors to remotely install, self-activate, reconfigure or even self-repair with new health services and applications, (2) secure and reliable dynamic software upgrade or update services applied to the native code of the clinical device, and, (3) remote registration and (re)configuration of body sensors as well as remote health-data services such as patient health report downloads and diagnosis data uploads with provider servers. Collectively these services address a range of patient medical monitoring needs by accelerating deployment of new health-related services, thus reducing medical costs and improving the quality of patient care. We are currently implementing a proof-of-concept prototype. Early experiences with MobiCare do show that it has the potential to become a feasible and a useful infrastructure paradigm for the next generation healthcare
Blind spreading factor detection for DS-CDMA (2002)

In WCDMA systems, the spreading factor (SF) of a user is allowed change as a new radio frame (length 10 ms) starts. The receiver does not know in advance the SF a user is really using. In this paper, techniques to detect the used spreading factor are studied. The problem is formulated as a general SF detection problem for a DS-CDMA systems. The optimal detector as well as the suboptimal autocorrelation based detector were studied. It was found that the SF detection can be devised rather reliably by a simple autocorrelation based detection algorithm.

Real and non‐real time interaction: Unraveling multiple threads of discourse∗ (1983)

Recent analyses of discourse have focused on recurring sequential structures. An examination of discourse in different communication media has shown that strict sequentially is not universal. Instead, discourse in some media is structured with “multiple threads.” The significant property of the media producing this difference in discourse was identified as the temporal delay between turns. Discourse in “non‐real time” media, such as electronic message systems, contain time‐saving devices that produce multiple threads. These differences between media are discussed in light of the relative resource limitation of real time interaction and the data limitation of non‐real time interaction.
Epoxidation of Alkenes by Peracids: From Textbook Mechanisms to a Quantum Mechanically Derived Curly‐Arrow Depiction (2019)

Using the intrinsic bond orbital (IBO) analysis based on accurate quantum mechanical calculations of the reaction path for the epoxidation of propene using peroxyacetic acid, we find that the four commonly used curly arrows for representing this reaction mechanism are insufficient and that seven curly arrows are required as a result of changes to σ and π bonding interactions, which are usually neglected in all textbook curly arrow representations. The IBO method provides a convenient quantitative method for deriving curly arrows in a rational manner rather than the normal <i>ad hoc</i> representations used ubiquitously in teaching organic chemistry.
CAN A WIND MODEL MIMIC A CONVECTION-DOMINATED ACCRETION FLOW MODEL\ulcorner (2001)

In this paper we investigate the properties of advection-dominated accretion flows (ADAFs) in case that outflows carry away infalling matter with its angular momentum and energy. Positive Bernoulli number in ADAFs allow a fraction of the gas to be expelled in a form of outflows. The ADAFs are also unstable to convection. We present self-similar solutions for advection-dominated accretion flows in the presence of outflows from the accretion flows(ADIOS). The axisymmetric flow is treated in variables integrated over polar sections and the effects of outflows on the accretion flow are parameterized for possible configurations compatible with the one dimensional self-similar ADAF solution. We explicitly derive self-similar solutions of ADAFs in the presence of outflows and show that the strong outflows in the accretion flows result in a flatter density profile, which is similar to that of the convection-dominated accretion flows(CDAFs) in which convection transports the angular momentum inward and the energy outward. There two different versions of the ADAF model should show similar behaviors in X-ray spectrum to some extent. Even though the two models may show similar behaviors, they should be distinguishable due to different physical properties. We suggest that for a central object of which mass is known these two different accretion flow should have different X-ray flux value due to deficient matter in the wind model.
