Army software metrics training (2002)

The experience of the Army Metrics Training Program has been that most software development managers do not recognize or use the software metrics which are already available in their programs. The content of the Army Metrics course focuses on use of the "standard" Army set of metrics. However, the course material is presented in a workshop format, in which the student group discusses the standard metric definition in terms of their program applications. The objective is to teach the tailoring process to define software metrics in terms of each student's management objectives and the structure of their program. The metrics tailoring process is structured by allowing by the students to define their own software measurement issues, including: how will measurement information be useful to my program in our existing management structure? How do I implement a measurement program without additional resources? What existing information and management systems can provide software measurement data?.
Synthesis and Tribological Properties of Air Plasma Polymerized Soybean Oil with N‐Containing Structures (2014)

Abstract In this study, polymerized oils with different viscosity grades were synthesized by the polymerization of soybean oil (SO) in an air plasma environment. The results of the elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and pyrolysis gas chromatography revealed that the carbonyl, organic amine, and nitrogen heterocyclic groups were incorporated into the molecule of the polymerized oil (PAIR9); the GPC chromatogram of this oil revealed that the product consisted of dimers and oligomers with higher molecular weights. The tribological behaviors of the polymerized oils were evaluated using a four‐ball friction and wear tester. The maximum non‐seizure loads of all the polymerized oils surpassed that of SO, and the P B value of PAIR9 reached 1,186 N. Meanwhile, PAIR9 exhibited much better anti‐wear performance when the tested loads were lower than 350 N. The worn surfaces lubricated by SO and PAIR9 were analyzed using the X‐ray photoelectron spectra (XPS). The results of the XPS analysis proved that during the frictional process, the polymerized oil could not only promote the adsorption of the oil on the metal surface because of the oxygen‐containing species (such as esters and carbonyl groups) with higher polarities but also promote the interactions with the metallic iron to form compact and stable tribochemical films containing organic nitrogen complexes.
Performance of a distributed erbium-doped dispersion-shifted fiber amplifier (1991)

Continued improvements in the performance of a multi-kilometer, low-erbium-concentration fiber amplifier made by the modified chemical vapor deposition (MCVD) seed fiber method are discussed. Transparency for a -20-dBm signal at 1.55 mu m and fiber length of 11.8 km was achieved with 20 mW of 1.48- mu m copropagating pump power. The wavelength dependence of the gain for this signal level is reported, and the distribution in small signal gain along a 22-km length using an optical domain reflectometer (OTDR) was measured. Simulations are presented to show the effect of erbium concentration, input signal level, and pump power required for transparency of a 50-km span.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>

<i>N</i> -Linked Glycosylations at Asn26 and Asn114 of Human MD-2 Are Required for Toll-Like Receptor 4-Mediated Activation of NF-κB by Lipopolysaccharide (2001)

MD-2 is physically associated with Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and is required for TLR4-mediated LPS signaling. Western blotting analysis revealed the presence of three forms of human (h)MD-2 with different electrophoretic mobilities. After N-glycosidase treatment of the cellular extract prepared from cells expressing hMD-2, only a single form with the fastest mobility was detected. Mutation of either one of two potential glycosylation sites (Asn(26) and Asn(114)) of MD-2 resulted in the disappearance of the slowest mobility form, and only the fastest form was detected in hMD-2 carrying mutations at both Asn(26) and Asn(114). Although these mutants were expressed on the cell surface and maintained its ability to associate with human TLR4, these mutations or tunicamycin treatment substantially impaired the ability of MD-2 to complement TLR4-mediated activation of NF-kappaB by LPS. LPS binding to cells expressing CD14, TLR4, and MD-2 was unaffected by these mutations. These observations demonstrate that hMD-2 undergoes N-linked glycosylation at Asn(26) and Asn(114), and that these glycosylations are crucial for TLR4-mediated signal transduction of LPS.
Early Onset of Diabetes Mellitus Associated with the Mitochondrial DNA T14709C Point Mutation: Patient Report and Literature Review (1999)

We report a family in which a mother and son were affected with diabetes mellitus and myopathy characterized by ragged red fibers and suggestive of mitochondrial disease. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis of DNA isolated from peripheral blood showed a T-->C point mutation at nucleotide position 14709, in the transfer RNA gene for glutamic acid. We review the association of diabetes and mtDNA mutations. This child's case is unusual because of the early onset of diabetes, which is more typical of mtDNA deletions.
Electrorheological Fluids (1992)

Suspensions of polarizable particles in nonpolarizable solvents form fibrillated structures in strong electric fields. The resulting increase in viscosity of these "electrorheological" fluids can couple electrical to hydraulic components in a servomechanism. The physical properties of these fluids are unusual owing to the long-range, anisotropic nature of the interparticle forces. Immediately after the electric field is applied, elongated chains or columns of particles form parallel to the field. This structure then coarsens as a result of thermal forces between the columns. In shear flows, fluids show yielding behavior at low stresses followed by shear-thinning behavior at higher stresses.

Glycopeptide analogues of PSGL-1 inhibit P-selectin in vitro and in vivo (2015)

Blockade of P-selectin (P-sel)/PSGL-1 interactions holds significant potential for treatment of disorders of innate immunity, thrombosis and cancer. Current inhibitors remain limited due to low binding affinity or by the recognized disadvantages inherent to chronic administration of antibody therapeutics. Here we report an efficient approach for generating glycosulfopeptide mimics of N-terminal PSGL-1 through development of a stereoselective route for multi-gram scale synthesis of the C2 O-glycan building block and replacement of hydrolytically labile tyrosine sulfates with isosteric sulfonate analogues. Library screening afforded a compound of exceptional stability, GSnP-6, that binds to human P-sel with nanomolar affinity (Kd~22 nM). Molecular dynamics simulation defines the origin of this affinity in terms of a number of critical structural contributions. GSnP-6 potently blocks P-sel/PSGL-1 interactions in vitro and in vivo and represents a promising candidate for the treatment of diseases driven by acute and chronic inflammation.
The Schottky diode acoustoelectric memory and correlator—A novel programmable signal processor (1976)

A novel acoustoelectric device capable of storing large bandwidth analog signals and correlating the stored signal with other signals is described. The device uses charge storage in an array of Schottky diodes on a silicon strip mounted adjacent to a lithium niobate surface-wave delay line. The paper emphasizes experimental results characterizing the device in terms of storage capacity, storage time, linearity, and efficiency. Based on the experimental data, a short discussion is given on anticipated performance limitations.
Oxidation kinetics of TiN layers: Exposed and beneath Pt thin films (1997)

Oxidation kinetics are reported for thin films of TiN, both directly exposed to a dry oxygen ambient and beneath polycrystalline Pt films of ∼100 nm thickness. Oxygen resonance backscattering spectrometry was used to detect thin oxide layers at the Pt/TiN interface produced by oxidation annealing at 550–650 °C. A linear oxidation rate law was observed for the buried TiN film, indicating the oxidation rate is independent of average titanium oxide thickness. The linear rate constant had an activation enthalpy of 2.4±0.1 eV.

A Simplified Way to Simulate 3D Virtual Sound Image (2001)

This paper proposes a simple way to simulate 3D virtual sound image in earphone． Theoretical and experimental results show that， similar to the principle of reproducing 3D image in multichannel sound， by using HRTF to simulate eight virtual loudspeakers in different directions and adjusting the signals fed to virtual loudspeakers， it is possible to reproduce 3D sound image in earphone． When it is used to simulate moving sound image or multi－image at same time， this way is simpler than the current method．
The minute virus of mice P39 transcription unit can encode both capsid proteins (1986)

The right-hand 80% of the genome of minute virus of mice (MVM) was cloned into the bovine papillomavirus type I shuttle vector and used to transfect mouse C127 cells. Transformed lines were isolated that efficiently produce both authentic MVM capsid proteins at a ratio similar to that seen in a normal viral infection, and these proteins assemble into intact empty virions. The only transcription of MVM sequences detected in these lines was representative of the viral P39 transcription unit, which therefore contains sufficient information to encode both authentic capsid proteins at the same regulated ratio seen in an infected cell.
Novel highly sensitive Cu‐based SERS platforms for biosensing applications (2015)

Novel surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) platforms have been prepared and used for the bacteria detection. Unlike typical, expensive SERS platforms prepared from gold or silver, the presented platforms are prepared using copper. A new, simple, cost‐efficient and fast high pressure method is used for platform fabrication, through the decomposition of copper hydride. The platform enhancement factors are verified using the malachite green isothiocyanate as a standard. The platforms exhibit extremely high SERS enhancement factors depending on pressure used for their preparation. The calculated enhancement factors have been found in the range between 1.5 × 10 6 and 4.6 × 10 7 . The SERS spectra reproducibility is established both across a single platform and among different platforms. The average spectral correlation coefficient (Γ) has been calculated to be 0.82. Fully characterized SERS platforms have then been used for detecting Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. These novel platforms have great potential to become excellent tools for biological or medical diagnostics as an alternative to more common silver or gold SERS platforms.

Microwave Active Filters Based on Transversal and Recursive Principles (1985)

Transferal and recursive filter concepts, normally associated with discrete-time applications, are adapted for implementation in the microwave frequency range. Principal focus is on microwave active filter designs that permit realization of wide bandwidths, with microwave transistors used as active elements. A transversal-type and a recursive-type experimental filter, both of which exhibit 9-15-GHz bandpass responses, serve to illustrate aspects of physical implementation, while offering a convenient basis for comparing the two different approaches.
i4Toys: Video technology in toys for improved access to play, entertainment, and education (2015)

Toys have a very important role in society. Play is a vitally part of every child's life, providing not only entertainment but also influencing the psychological, physiological and social development of a child. Throughout the years, toys have reflected every generation's advances in technology. In this paper wireless technologies, low power computing and sensing are used to expand the capabilities of existing toys. The proposed framework is a first step towards vision enabled gesture recognition, emotion assessment, as well as providing useful physiological feedback such as temperature change or allergic reactions. The toys are equipped with versatile interfaces which allow children with a wide range of disabilities to interact with them. The solution retrofits low cost toy robots with state of the art sensors (PiR, temperature, and microphone), processing capabilities, and wireless technology. A computer vision system for location and control of the toys has also been also developed. This allows one or more toys to work in conjunction with a remote camera to interact with their environment. Two deployment scenarios are presented showing the feasibility of the platform. The first deployment involves using the thermal imaging and PiR sensors to detect "Santa" and capture a thermal recording of him. The second deployment involves using a fixed camera in a room for real time tracking and control of toys. The aim is to provide a platform which can provide robot-human and robot-robot interactions using vision sensors.

This is the first study with a long follow-up showing that the immunoreactive protein of MMP-9 in head and neck carcinoma is associated with shortened relapse-free and cause-specific survival, suggesting that MMP-9 has a role in tumor progression of head and neck carcinomas, as well as in estimation of the prognosis of these diseases.
Highly Scalable Fe(Ferroelectric)-NAND Cell with MFIS(Metal-Ferroelectric-Insulator-Semiconductor) Structure for Sub-10nm Tera-Bit Capacity NAND Flash Memories (2008)

Characteristics of MFIS-type ferroelectric-gate FETs as a NAND flash memory cell are investigated. Lower voltage operations compared with floating-gate/MONOS NAND cells are realized. Excellent program and read disturb characteristics are presented. High endurance and long data retention results are also described. Due to the voltage-driven low-voltage and scalable properties, ferroelectric-gate FETs are most suitable for the sub- lOnm NAND flash memories.
Pulse delay at diffractive structures under resonance conditions (1998)

An optical pulse incident upon a diffractive structure under resonance conditions may undergo a temporal delay. The effect is demonstrated with a pulse of Gaussian profile at two geometries: a waveguide grating and a single-mode waveguide. It is shown that the order of magnitude of the delay can be controlled by the parameters of the structures.

Forward-Secure Proxy Signature Scheme for Multiple Proxy Signers using DSA with Proxy Revocation (2009)

A proxy signature scheme allows one user to delegate his/her signing capability to another user called a proxy signer in such a way that the latter can sign messages on behalf of the the former. After verification the verifier is convinced of the original signer's agreement on the signed message. Like digital signatures, these proxy signatures are also vulnerable to leakage of proxy secret key. Forward-Secure signatures enable the signer to guarantee the security of messages signed in the past even if his secret key is exposed today. By applying the concept of Forward-Security to proxy signatures, we have come up with a forward secure proxy signature scheme based on DSA(Digital signature algorithm). Compared to existing schemes, the special feature of our scheme is that an original signer can delegate his signing capability to any number of proxy signers in varying time periods. Though the original signer gives proxy information to all the proxy signers at the beginning of the protocol, the proxy signers will be able to generate proxy signatures only in their allotted time periods. Further, the proxy signatures are made forward-secure. Moreover, our scheme meets the basic requirements of a proxy signature scheme along with proxy revocation. Both on-demand proxy revocation i.e. whenever the original signer wants to revoke the proxy signer and automatic proxy revocation i.e. immediate revocation after the expiry of the time period of the proxy signer, is provided. Additional properties of our scheme are as follows: identity of the proxy signer is available in the information sent by original signer to proxy signer, original signer need not send the information to proxy signer through a secure channel, warrant on the delegated messages can be specified, original signer cannot play the role of proxy signer, and verifier can determine when the proxy signature was generated.
Cysteine contributions to metal binding preference for Zn/Cd in the beta-domain of metallothionein (1998)

Previous studies showed that metals in the beta-domain of metallothionein (MT) are more readily exchangeable and the level of avidity is site specific. This is reflected by energy differences computed with a series of simulated structures derived from X-ray crystallography. In this study, we examined further the contribution of each of the nine cysteines in the beta-domain. By semi-empirical MNDO calculations, we observed that the relative average binding strength is the strongest for Cys21 to Cd[M4] and for Cys26 to Zn[M3], except for the bridging cysteines. These results suggest that binding site preference for Zn/Cd is determined by binding strength between specific cysteines and metal ion species.
Survey of Active Truss Modules (1995)

Abstract This paper presents a survey of active truss modules (ATMs) which can be used to construct modular, long-reach, lightweight truss-based manipulators (TBMs). Theoretical classification is presented for candidate ATM geometries. A survey of the literature is presented to subjectively compare practical modules which have been proposed. Kinematically-equivalent serial analogies are given for each of the in-parallel-actuated ATMs; use of these analogies can simplify TBM control. The intent of this paper is to present ATM alternatives and discuss subjective criteria for design selection, rather than to choose one best module.
Proteins accumulate in the apoplast of winter rye leaves during cold acclimation (1993)

During cold acclimation, winter rye ( Secale cereale L.) plants develop the ability to tolerate freezing temperatures by forming ice in intercellular spaces and xylem vessels. In this study, proteins were extracted from the apoplast of rye leaves to determine their role in controlling extracellular ice formation. Several polypeptides in the 15 to 32 kDa range accumulated in the leaf apoplast during cold acclimation at 5°C and decreased during deacclimation at 20°C. A second group of polypeptides (63, 65 and 68 kDa) appeared only when the leaves were maximally frost tolerant. Ice nucleation activity, as well as the previously reported antifreeze activity, was higher in apoplastic extracts from cold‐acclimated than from nonacclimated rye leaves. These results indicate that apoplastic proteins exert a direct influence on the growth of ice. In addition, freezing injury was greater in extracted cold‐acclimated leaves than in unextracted cold‐acclimated leaves, which suggests that the proteins present in the apoplast are an important component of the mechanism by which winter rye leaves tolerate ice formation
