Based on fuzzy theory analysis method applied to community underground building fire risk assessment

Abstract The overall stability of the underground building community is related to the community, and the fire safety of the underground building is the top priority. Starting from the fire safety of underground buildings, this paper establishes the fire safety risk assessment system of underground buildings, uses AHP to determine the index weight, then applies the fuzzy theory to the comprehensive evaluation of underground buildings, determines the grade of underground buildings, and applies the fuzzy theory to the community fire safety of underground buildings, hoping to provide some reference for community fire safety.

Automated modeling of complex data center applications

As online services become increasingly common, the complexity of backend distributed server applications in data centers has also continued to grow. At the same time, there is an increasing need to enhance the manageability of these large applications by automating common management tasks, which requires a good understanding of the run-time behavior of the application under different scenarios. However, the rising complexity of these applications makes the tasks of manually modeling and analyzing their run-time behavior increasingly difficult. In this talk, I will argue for the need to automate the modeling of the run-time performance of distributed data center applications. I will present techniques for automatically deriving application models using statistical methods from machine learning. I will describe how we have put these ideas into practice into two systems that we have built, Modellus and Predico, and will present case studies of using these systems for management tasks such as capacity planning and what-if analysis of data center applications.

Beyond Technocratic Debates: The Significance and Transience of Political Incentives in the Malawi Farm Input Subsidy Programme (FISP)

The Malawi FISP resurrected debates about the role of subsidies in African agricultural policy. Recent literature has highlighted the social and political interests that influence the distribution of input‐subsidy vouchers, often tending to reduce the efficiency with which such programmes contribute to poverty reduction. Taking the FISP as a case study, this article examines the political incentives that have driven programme implementation. Two streams of rents associated with the FISP were used to generate support for the first‐term government of President Mutharika (2005–9), with very different implications for programme efficiency. One then stopped abruptly in 2009. The Malawi case demonstrates both the importance of political incentives in determining subsidy outcomes and how they can change dramatically over time.

Biological response modifier--immunotherapeutic approaches in pancreatic cancer.

Three principles of immunological approaches to cancer therapy are currently under investigation. First the administration of monoclonal antibodies, given either alone or with peripheral mononuclear cells and/or human gamma interferon. Another area of interest is adoptive immunotherapy by means of in vitro lymphokine-activated and propagated killer cells. Finally, human recombinant cytokines (interferons, tumor necrosis factors) have attracted clinical interest. The clinical data thus far available for pancreatic cancer will be briefly reviewed.

Unlockable Nanocomplexes with Self‐Accelerating Nucleic Acid Release for Effective Staged Gene Therapy of Cardiovascular Diseases

Abstract Nucleic acid (NA)‐based therapy is proposed to address serious diseases such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Powerful NA delivery vehicles are essential for effective gene therapy. Herein, a novel type of delivery vehicle, an unlockable core–shell nanocomplex (Hep@PGEA) with self‐accelerating NA release, is structurally designed. Hep@PGEA is composed of disulfide‐bridged heparin nanoparticle (HepNP) core and low‐toxicity PGEA cationic shell. In comparison with NA, heparin, a negatively charged polysaccharide macromolecule, exhibits stronger interactions with cationic species. Upon the breakdown of redox‐responsive HepNP cores, unlocked heparin would interact with the outer cationic shells and replace the condensed NA to facilitate NA release. Such unique Hep@PGEA is successfully explored for effective miRNA–pDNA staged gene therapy of myocardial infarction (MI), one of the most serious CVDs. With the progression of MI, glutathione amounts in heart tissues increase. MiR‐499 (for the inhibition of cardiomyocyte apoptosis) and plasmid encoding vascular endothelial growth factor (for the promotion of angiogenesis) are sequentially delivered for systemic treatment of MI. Such treatment produces impressive results in restoring heart function and suppressing cardiac hypertrophy. Due to the wide existence of redox agents in cells, the proposed unlockable delivery nanovehicle and staged therapy strategy can provide new methods to effectively treat different serious diseases.

Time-Series Analysis of Suicidal and Undetermined Deaths

The suicide rate and the death rate for undetermined causes were negatively associated over time from 1968 to 1990 in the USA, suggesting that these undetermined deaths may include a fair proportion of suicides. In contrast, there was no association between suicide and undetermined death rates over the states in 1980.

A sensitive method for the determination of the mitochondrial susceptibility factor (MSF).

A sensitive method for the determination of the activity of MSF in the cytosol of reticulocytes is described. It is based on the fact that proteolysis products from the mitochondria containing stroma of immature reticulocytes (fraction I) are only liberated if MSF is added. The reproducibility of the method is documented with partly purified MSF. A drawback is the limited range of MSF which can be tested.

Combining the theory of constraints with system dynamics: A general model (case study of the subsidized milk industry)

This article discusses multi-methodology approaches. The authors explain that multi-methodology approaches assist in creating a complementary understanding of complexity through specific processes. A new Mohammadi–Ghazanfari model is proposed for combining the theory of constraints with systems dynamics to deal with soft problems. This model consists of two phases. The first phase is the appreciation and analysis of the problem. The second phase includes assessment and evaluation actions. The first phase is described using a subsidized milk industry study in Iran.

Bibliography

Anti-computing explores forgotten histories and contemporary forms of dissent – moments when the imposition of computational technologies, logics, techniques, imaginaries, utopias have been questioned, disputed, or refused. It also asks why these moments tend to be forgotten. What is it about computational capitalism that means we live so much in the present? What has this to do with computational logics and practices themselves?This book addresses these issues through a critical engagement with media archaeology and medium theory and by way of a series of original studies; exploring Hannah Arendt and early automation anxiety, witnessing and the database, Two Cultures from the inside out, bot fear, singularity and/as science fiction. Finally, it returns to remap long-standing concerns against new forms of dissent, hostility, and automation anxiety, producing a distant reading of contemporary hostility.At once an acute response to urgent concerns around toxic digital cultures, an accounting with media archaeology as a mode of medium theory, and a series of original and methodologically fluid case studies, this book crosses an interdisciplinary research field including cultural studies, media studies, medium studies, critical theory, literary and science fiction studies, media archaeology, medium theory, cultural history, technology history.

Octopodal Pictoriality: The Self-Reflexivity of the Octopus in Graeco-Roman Art

Abstract The octopus was renowned in Graeco-Roman thought for being a master of visual imitation insofar as it could imperceptibly mimic rocks by changing the colour of its skin. What did it mean, then, for the Greeks and Romans to imitate nature’s consummate imitator in art? This essay takes two sets of artefacts that featured octopuses—Greek red-figure ‘fish plates’ and Roman ‘fish mosaics’—and contextualises them alongside Greek and Latin poetry, biology and philosophy to explore the self-reflexivity of picturing polyps in Graeco-Roman culture. In establishing the octopus as mise-en-abyme, the essay salvages the sophisticated self-referentiality of the marine ‘still life’ and recovers a more ecologically grounded way of understanding the relation between art and nature than is traditionally associated with classical art history. Ultimately, seeing the self-consciousness of these octopodal artworks entails becoming more self-aware of ourselves and our place in the world at this juncture of climate crisis.

Toxicity of benzo( )pyrene and air pollution composite for adult human bronchial mucosa in organ culture.

Summary Bronchial mucosal patches from seven adult human subjects undergoing lobectomy and from five subjects during examination by bronchoscopy were maintained in organ culture for 5 to 11 days. Benzo( a )pyrene (BaP), 15 μg/ml, or an air pollution composite (AP), 700 μg/ml, was present in culture media during incubation of treated explants. Some control mucosal samples were fixed at time zero, and others were maintained for 5 to 11 days on media containing only 0.4% acetone as vehicle for the test materials. All samples were incubated for 30 min with tritiated thymidine before fixation, and each tissue piece was examined by histological and autoradiographic methods. Fresh mucosal samples did not have uniformly normal epithelia because of underlying disease or injury during handling. Some mucosal pieces were in more than one state of epithelial differentiation because mucosal lesions were often smaller than the mucosal piece prepared for culture. A range of abnormalities was therefore observed during maintenance on control culture media. Exposure to BaP and AP produced sufficiently similar changes to permit the results to be pooled for comparison with control cultures. Instances of each state of epithelial differentiation in control and treated cultures were distributed in the following ratios (% in control: % in treated): columnar, 36:14; metaplastic or dysplastic, 8:2; abnormal, unclassified, 31:22; regenerative, 11:13; dead, 14:50. BaP and AP produced toxic destruction of all cell types or, as a less marked effect, suppression of DNA synthesis and distortion of morphological states of columnar but not of regenerative epithelia. Pleomorphic, replicative lesions were not induced in adult human epithelium although such lesions were present elsewhere in untreated mucosal samples and have been produced by similar concentrations of BaP in suckling rodent tracheas in organ culture. Toxicity due to AP cannot be identified with either a single component of AP nor any particular cell type. Toxicity of BaP for adult human respiratory mucosa is interpreted as evidence that microsomal mixed-function oxidases are present and active in metabolic conversion of BaP. Adult human and suckling rodent respiratory epithelia are susceptible to biological effects of BaP in the organ culture system, but toxic effects were more common in the human mucosal samples examined in this study.

Defining How Proteasome Maturation Affects the Degradation of a Substrate for Autophagy and Endoplasmic Reticulum Associated Degradation (ERAD)

An increasing body of data links endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function to autophagy. Not surprisingly, then, some aberrant proteins in the ER can be destroyed either via ER associated degradation (ERAD), which is proteasome‑mediated, or via autophagy. One such substrate is the “Z” variant of the alpha‑1 protease inhibitor (A1Pi), variably known as A1Pi‑Z or AT‑Z (“anti‑trypsin, Z variant”). The wild type protein is primarily synthesized in the liver and is secreted. In contrast, AT‑Z, like other ERAD substrates, is retro‑translocated from the ER and delivered to the proteasome. However, AT‑Z can form high molecular weight polymers that are degraded via autophagy, and cells that accumu‑ late AT‑Z polymers ultimately succumb, which leads to liver disease. Therefore, identifying genes that have an impact AT‑Z turnover represents an active area of research. To this end, a yeast expression system for AT‑Z has proven valuable. For example, a recent study using this system indicates that the activity of a proteasome assembly chaperone (PAC) is critical for maximal AT‑Z turnover, which suggests a new role for PACs. Because PACs are conserved, it will be critical to analyze whether these dedicated chaperones are implicated in other diseases associated with ERAD and autophagy.

The Effects of Exercises to Develope Muscular Strength Legs of Aged People to Maintain the Sense of Balance

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vitamin E administration with regular exercise for 5 weeks on blood lipid profiles in rats. 21 rats was randomly individed into three groups [vitamin E administration with exercise group(VEX group, n=7), exercise group(EX group, n=7), control group(CON group, n=7)], performed exercise(25-26m/min, grade 0%, 5d/w, 50min.) and vitamin E(400mg/kg b.w.) administration for 5 weeks. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. TG, T-C, LDL-C concentration were significantly higher in the control group, but HDL-C concentration was significantly higher in the exercise group. In conclusion, Exercise for 5 weeks reduced to CAD factors, but TG, T-C, LDL-C and HDL-C concentration was not show positive effect by vitamin E. Therefore, Futher experimentals are required to administration volumes, duration and relation to vitamin E and lipid enzyme activity.

A novel GaN-based monolithic SAW/HEMT oscillator on silicon

This work presents the first fully integrated surface acoustic wave (SAW) oscillator based on AlGaN/GaN structures grown on Si substrates. In addition to the material advantages such as wide-bandgap, and chemical and thermal stability, the use of crystalline III-nitride semiconductors enables a seamless integration of an acoustic device with its peripheral control circuits. The 252-MHz oscillator prototype was implemented by monolithically integrating a two-port SAW delay line with electronics using AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). Measurements show that the SAW device exhibits a high quality factor (Q) of up to 1000 and an excellent power handling capability. The oscillator is suitable for sensing applications in harsh environments and can potentially be extended to high power RF systems.

The design of QoS provisioning mechanisms for wireless networks

Two mechanisms are proposed in this paper to be incorporated with IEEE 802.11e EDCA MAC protocol for providing the QoS provisioning capability of such network. First, the call admission control function, which considers the inherent contention access feature of 802.11 MAC, aims to satisfy the QoS requirement of established higher priority connections, while protecting the minimum reserved bandwidth of traffic flows with lower priority at the same time. In addition, the proposed adaptive contention window adjustment mechanism dynamically adjusts the maximum and minimum contention window size based upon the equivalent established connection number observed by each individual access category. Such approach reduces the channel contention probability and packet access delay effectively. Performance results via simulations have shown the advantages achieved by employing these two mechanisms.

Tunable electronic properties in stanene and two dimensional silicon-carbide heterobilayer: A first principles investigation

A novel two-dimensional heterobilayer, stanene-silicon carbide (Sn/SiC) is predicted using first principles calculations. Three representational stacking configurations are considered to study the structure and electronic properties of Sn/SiC heterobilayer in detail. All the stacking patterns of the heterobilayer manifest a wide band gap of ∼160meV at the K point with the Dirac cone well preserved, exhibiting the largest energy band gap among all stanene-based two dimensional heterostructures. Moreover, the energy gap can be efficiently varied through changing the interlayer distance between stanene and SiC layer as well as applying biaxial strain. Our computed small effective mass (∼0.0145mo) and the characteristic of nearly linear band dispersion relation of the heterobilayer also suggest high mobility of the carriers. The space charge distribution of the valence and conduction bands and the density of states (DOS) of the heterostructure unravel that SiC monolayer retains the various excellent electrical properties of stanene in a great extent and allows the carriers to move through the stanene layer only. This implies the potentiality of 2D SiC as a good substrate for stanene to adopt the heterobilayer. Our results reveal that Sn/SiC heterobilayer would be a promising platform for future Sn-based high speed nanoelectronic and spintronic devices.
