The Role of RFID in Green IoT: A Survey on Technologies, Challenges and a Way Forward

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that enables communication between everyday life using different sensor actuators that work together to identify, capture, and distribute critical data from the planet.Massive machines and devices are therefore linked and communicate with them.The use of resources in this area presents new challenges for this technology.The goal was to find a green IoT that focuses on energy efficiency and IoT efficiency.Green IoT is an energy-efficient way to reduce or eliminate the greenhouse effect of current applications.Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is one of the Green IoT and Master IoT components that identifies a person or entity in a high-frequency electromagnetic spectrum when combining electromagnetic or electrostatic couplings.If the predictions are also correct, energy use issues arise as active battery-powered RFID detection needs to be addressed by incorporating new solutions for Green IoT technology.Past studies and assessments have attempted to evaluate RFID technology and its functions.Unfortunately, however, they concentrated on a single RFID view of technique and technology.This paper examines holistically and systematically the impact of RFID applications on green IoT, focusing on three categories: the challenges, environmental consequences, and the benefits of green IoT RFID applications.The impacts, performance and safety of RFID IoT applications have been carefully described.The benefits and examples of RFID applications, including their key advantages and disadvantages, are also discussed.Overall, this paper highlights the potential efforts of RFID to address existing Green IoT issues.
Autoimmune Encephalitis: Evolving Clinical Spectrum and Updated Management

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) is a noninfectious encephalitis which is an emerging entity due to the detection of autoantibody. It is mostly triggered by viral infections, tumor, etc. Clinical clues to diagnosis are acute or subacute onset of seizure, movement disorder, psychiatric or behavioral disorder, autonomic disturbances, etc. Detection of autoantibody from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or serum plays important role in the diagnosis. Extreme delta brush, diffuse slowing or epileptic discharges may be found in electroencephalopgram (EEG). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain findings are nonspecific, and may be normal or abnormal. Timely and appropriate immunotherapy is very important for better outcomes. Maintenance therapy is needed to prevent the relapse. This review will highlight the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical spectrum, investigation, and management of AIE.
The Mixed Gamble of Competitive Dynamics in Family‐Controlled Firms

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

We extend the mixed gamble perspective to explain how family‐controlled firms frame and evaluate the difficult trade‐off between potential gains and losses in financial wealth (FW) and socioemotional wealth (SEW) when pursuing portfolio‐level strategic initiatives, as captured by competitive aggressiveness and complexity. Analyzing 570 public‐listed Korean firms from 1998 to 2017, we find that family‐controlled firms tend to avoid competitive aggressiveness and complexity in their strategic action portfolios. However, our broader perspective leads us to identify critical boundary conditions: this reluctance weakens when firms fall below historical and social performance aspiration levels, as the risks to FW and SEW become more apparent. Conversely, their reluctance strengthens when they retain many family business group affiliations that provide safeguards for FW and SEW.
Auto Labeling Methods Developed Through Semi-Weakly Supervised Learning in Prognostics and Health Management Applications for Rolling Ball Bearing

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In recent years, complex machine learning and deep learning algorithms have been used in prognostics and health management applications to monitor the state of industrial systems in real-time and predict failures in advance. However, the performance of these algorithms depends on the size of the collected labeled datasets. This study proposes a semi-weakly supervised learning method that creates label functions using a small amount of data and, consequently, combines weak supervision and semi-supervision methods to expand the labeled dataset for training. The proposed model training method creates labels automatically in the life prediction dataset of rolling element bearings, which were manually labeled by expert groups. The performance of the deep neural network is continuously improved through experiments, and a performance improvement similar to that of manually labeled training data is presented. Future research applications include meta-learner experiments (e.g., use of pre-trained word embedding or other model architectures) and more appropriate selection methods and definitions for the basic learner.
A Perceptual Correlate of the Labial-Coronal Effect

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Purpose Statistical studies conducted in various languages on both infants and adults have revealed an intersyllabic preference for initiating words with a labial consonant–vowel–coronal consonant sequence. Speech motor constraints have been proposed to explain this so-called labial-coronal effect . This study was designed to test for a possible perceptual correlate of the labial-coronal effect in French adults. Method The authors examined the perceptual stabilities of repeatedly presented disyllabic sequences, involving either a labial-vowel–coronal-vowel (LC) or a coronal-vowel–labial-vowel (CL) phonological structure. With this aim, they exploited the verbal transformation effect, which refers to the perceptual changes experienced while listening to a speech form cycled in rapid and continuous repetition. Two experiments were carried out, involving either voiced or unvoiced plosive consonants. Results In both experiments, a greater stability and attractiveness was observed for LC stimuli, which suggests that in a (…)LCLC(…) flow, the listener could more naturally provide a segmentation into LC chunks. Conclusion This study demonstrates that the labial-coronal effect also occurs in the course of online speech processing. This result is interpreted in relation with theories assuming a link between perception and action in the human speech processing system.
Case Reports J. med. Genet. (1969). 6, 413. A Liveborn Infant with Complete Triploidy (69,XXX)

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

tion (1966), summarizing the results of chromosome studies in spontaneous abortion, revealed that 17% of those with an abnormal karyotype were tri-ploids. More recently Edwards et al. (1967), in re-porting two further abortions with triploidy, showed that, with an abortion rate of 20 % and using Carr&apos;s data (Carr, 1965), the survival rate of triploid embryos was much less than 1 %. Consequently there are few reports of liveborn infants with this chromosome complement and, with two exceptions described by Bernard et al. (1967) and by Edwards et al. (1967), all have been mosaics (Book and

GPU-parallelized artificial bee colony algorithm (GP-ABC) in data clustering application

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimization and k-means algorithm are popularly used in data clustering application due to their accuracy and simplicity. However, as the number of dimension and data increases, program complexity may increase much further and ABC will execute in much slower time. This project proposes a novel parallelization model on ABC called ‘GPU-parallelized Artificial Bee Colony (GP-ABC)’ algorithm in order to achieve speedup relatively to its normal sequential program execution. Testing has been done on several datasets from UCI Machine Learning repository such as Iris and Wine datasets. The results were encouraging and outperformed the ordinary ABC algorithm in terms of processing time.
Circadian orchestration of gene expression in cyanobacteria.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

We wanted to identify genes that are controlled by the circadian clock in the prokaryotic cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. strain PCC 7942. To use luciferase as a reporter to monitor gene expression, bacterial luciferase genes (luxAB) were inserted randomly into the Synechococcus genome by conjugation with Escherichia coli and subsequent homologous recombination. The resulting transformed clones were then screened for bioluminescence using a new developed cooled-CCD camera system. We screened approximately 30,000 transformed Synechococcus colonies and recovered approximately 800 clones whose bioluminescence was bright enough to be easily monitored by the screening apparatus. Unexpectedly, the bioluminescence expression patterns of almost all of these 800 colonies clearly manifested circadian rhythmicity. These rhythms exhibited a range of waveforms and amplitudes, and they also showed a variety of phase relationships. We also found bioluminescence rhythms expressed by cyanobacterial colonies in which the luciferase gene set was coupled to the promoters of several known genes. Together, these results indicate that control of gene expression by circadian clocks may be more widespread than expected thus far. Moreover, our results show that screening organisms in which promoterless luciferase genes have been inserted randomly throughout the genome by homologous recombination provides an extremely sensitive method to explore differential gene expression.
Retinitis pigmentosa, metaphyseal chondrodysplasia, and brachydactyly: an affected brother and sister.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A brother and sister, children of normal parents are described. They had retinitis pigmentosa, causing near-blindness as a result of very narrow fields of vision, associated with metaphyseal chondrodysplasia and marked shortening of the metacarpals and terminal phalanges. Autosomal recessive inheritance is suggested with a common biochemical cause for all these defects. This apparently new association of retinitis pigmentosa with a systemic bone dysplasia emphasises that this not uncommon clinical diagnosis has a variety of different possible causes.
Realism and the Principle of the Common Cause

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Contemporary arguments for scientific realism are typically based on some form of inference to the best explanation. Sometimes such arguments concern the methods of science: given the success of scientific methodology, realism offers the best explanation of this success. Sometimes such arguments concern the content of scientific theories: given observed regularities in nature, explanations must be given of those regularities; the best such explanations will be realist. One forceful explanationist argument about the content of science can be based on Hans Reichenbach’s Principle of the Common Cause (CC). Roughly, CC says that whenever an enduring correlation between two events is observed, there must be some preceding event which is the common cause of the two, and is the explanation for the correlation. Rigid adherence to this demand for a common cause, however, supposedly goes beyond the instrumentalist explanatory resources available to the antirealist, and hence CC is taken to be a sufficient condition for realism. Further, one might claim that any argument that realism has greater explanatory power than antirealism depends either explicitly or implicitly on CC, and hence CC is also a necessary condition for realism.
Assessment of syphilis infection among pregnant women and its associated risk factors at Sovu health center in Rwanda

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Syphilis in pregnant women caused by Treponema pallidum remains a major cause of reproductive morbidity and poor pregnancy outcomes in developing countries. Severe neonatal infections, stillbirths, perinatal deaths, and low birth weight babies are common among mothers with syphilis infection. The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence and risk factors associated to syphilis in pregnant women. A cross-sectional and retrospective studies were conducted among pregnant women who attended the prenatal service at the Gisovu health center. Participants were pregnant women who tested positive for syphilis based on lab results and responses collected from anonymous questionnaires completed with sexual behaviors, demographics, sexual partners, history of abortion, and knowledge about STDs. The prevalence of syphilis was 5.74%. Syphilis was associated to the history of previous abortion (P = 0.005 < 0.05), a low level of education (P = 0.049 < 0.05), and marital status (P = 0.044 < 0.05). The main associated behavioral factor was women who had sex with different partners using condom and did not acquire syphilis infection (P = 0.00 < 0.05). Syphilis is still a public health concern in patients and especially in pregnant women as shown by the findings of this study. It is very important to screen all pregnant women for syphilis and to strengthen the existing antenatal care services and health education on transmission and prevention of the disease.
Sumatriptan: a new serotonin agonist for the treatment of migraine headache.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Sumatriptan is a new serotonin receptor agonist that is useful in the treatment of migraine headache. More than 70 percent of patients with migraine headaches respond to subcutaneous sumatriptan within two hours, although headaches recur in up to two-thirds of initial responders. Side effects include lightheadness, a sensation of tingling or warmth, and breathlessness. Compared with the combination of ergotamine and caffeine, sumatriptan appears to work earlier and more completely but is associated with a higher rate of recurrent headache. Sumatriptan may be a useful additional therapy for migraine headache.
Homocysteine in pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia with and without IUGR: a comparison with normotensive pregnant women with isolated IUGR and healthy pregnant women

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze homocysteine levels in maternal serum in women with pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and/or IUGR. Patients and methods: The study was carried out on 49 pregnant patients with normotensive pregnancies complicated by intrauterine fetal growth restriction (group IUGR), 31 patients with preeclampsia complicated by IUGR (group PRE-IUGR), and 35 preeclamptic patients with appropriate-for-gestational-age weight fetuses (group PRE). The control group consisted of 47 healthy normotensive pregnant patients with singleton uncomplicated pregnancies and with proper intrauterine fetal growth. Results: We revealed higher levels of maternal serum homocysteine in the group of pregnant patients with isolated fetal intrauterine growth restriction in comparison with the control subjects. The concentrations of homocysteine were also higher in both groups of patients with pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia with and without IUGR. The highest levels of homocysteine were observed in preeclamptic women with appropriate-for-gestational-age fetal growth. The mean values were 9.004 +/– 2.820 umol/L in the IUGR group, 10.815 +/– 3.785 umol/ L in the group PRE, 9.808 +/– 2.543 umol/L in the group PRE-IUGR and 7.639 +/– 2.728 umol/L in the control group. Conclusions: Increased levels of homocysteine are involved in pathogenesis IUGR and preeclampsia and may contribute to endothelial cells activation or dysfunction observed in these pregnancy disorders. Further studies are needed to explain these aspects in order to improve the management and therapeutic strategies for pregnancies complicated by IUGR and/or preeclampsia.
"Sounding Nature, Sounding Place": Alternative Performance Spaces, Participatory Experience, and Ritual Performance in R. Murray Schafer’s Patria Cycle

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

R. Murray Schafer (b. 1933, Sarnia, Ontario, Canada) is a seminal voice in Canadian music, due not only to the often controversial, but widespread international reception of his extensive spectrum of works, but also, due to his distinct approach to composition. Schafer’s Patria cycle (1966- ) employs unorthodox performance locales and contexts, a confluence of art forms and sensory experiences, and demands active audience participation, defining Patria as one of the most ambitious stage works. \n\tIn this dissertation I explore two essential frameworks that are seminal in the discussion of Patria; firstly Schafer’s compositional processes, broadly defined, that come into play in Patria, and secondly, the performative and theatrical aspects in Patria. Through four ethnographic case studies, I suggest that the use of alternative performance spaces, participatory performance, and ritual performance foster an artistic and social environment that has the potential, if participants choose to fully engage in the experience, to alter participants’ perception of the importance of the environment, community, spirituality, and artistic and sensorial experience in contemporary society. In Chapter 1 I provide a discussion of Schafer’s concepts of soundscape and the theatre of confluence and how they are applied in Patria, and outline my research methodology, including my fieldwork experiences from working onsite during Patria productions from 2003 through 2007. In Chapter 2 I examine and contextualize four aspects of performance that reoccur throughout Patria and are specifically detailed in my four case studies: alternative performance space, participatory experience, and ritual performance. My four case studies, Chapter 3 The Princes of the Stars, Chapter 4 Asterion, Chapter 5 The Enchanted Forest, and Chapter 6 And Wolf Shall Inherit the Moon, argue that my participatory approach to Patria comprehensively illustrates how site, work, environment, and community interact, forming a distinctive performance experience.
Can “integrated water resources management” silence Malthusian concerns? The case of Central Asia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The debate on international water problems is split between the analytical perspective of International Relations (IR) and related social sciences, on the one hand, and prescriptive, problem-solving contributions, on the other hand. This article explores how these separate discourses can link up productively by scrutinizing the example of Central Asia, especially the Aral Sea basin. Most water conflicts there – pointed out by IR “Malthusian” analyses – could be handled effectively by adopting IWRM principles for water management. However, both IR approaches and prescriptive concepts like IWRM need to be complemented by a profound knowledge of domestic politics within affected states if they are to identify realistic ways for solving water scarcity problems.
Detection of oestrogen receptors in non‐invasive and invasive transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary bladder using both conventional immunohistochemistry and the tyramide staining amplification (TSA) technique

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

In a retrospective immunohistochemical study, the expression of oestrogen receptors has been investigated in paraffin-embedded transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary bladder with antibody 6F11, using both a conventional immunohistochemical detection system and the highly sensitive tyramide staining amplification (TSA) technique. The study comprised 88 invasive and 97 non-invasive carcinomas of 101 female (mean age 68·4 years) and 84 male (mean age 68·2 years) patients. Oestrogen receptors were detected in 34 (18 per cent) carcinomas with conventional immunohistochemistry and 46 (25 per cent) with TSA. Using TSA, oestrogen receptors were significantly more often detectable in invasive (32/88) than in non-invasive carcinomas (14/97) and in G2/G3 (37/122) rather than in G1 (9/63) carcinomas. There were no associations between patients' age and sex and the expression of oestrogen receptors. The functional significance of oestrogen receptor expression in a subset of transitional cell carcinomas of the urinary bladder remains to be determined. Copyright © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
