Shape-invariant multibeam backscatter data of the eastern slope of the Porcupine Seabight (50 m grid size)

In this study multibeam angular backscatter data acquired in the eastern slope of the Porcupine Seabight are analysed. Processing of the angular backscatter data using the 'NRGCOR' software was made for 29 locations comprising different geological provinces like: carbonate mounds, buried mounds, seafloor channels, and inter-channel areas. A detailed methodology is developed to produce a map of angle-invariant (normalized) backscatter data by correcting the local angular backscatter values. The present paper involves detailed processing steps and related technical aspects of the normalization approach. The presented angle-invariant backscatter map possesses 12 dB dynamic range in terms of grey scale. A clear distinction is seen between the mound dominated northern area (Belgica province) and the Gollum channel seafloor at the southern end of the site. Qualitative analyses of the calculated mean backscatter values i.e., grey scale levels, utilizing angle-invariant backscatter data generally indicate backscatter values are highest (lighter grey scale) in the mound areas followed by buried mounds. The backscatter values are lowest in the inter-channel areas (lowest grey scale level). Moderate backscatter values (medium grey level) are observed from the Gollum and Kings channel data, and significant variability within the channel seafloor provinces. The segmentation of the channel seafloor provinces are made based on the computed grey scale levels for further analyses based on the angular backscatter strength. Three major parameters are utilized to classify four different seafloor provinces of the Porcupine Seabight by employing a semi-empirical method to analyse multibeam angular backscatter data. The predicted backscatter response which has been computed at 20° is the highest for the mound areas. The coefficient of variation (CV) of the mean backscatter response is also the highest for the mound areas. Interestingly, the slope value of the buried mound areas are found to be the highest. However, the channel seafloor of moderate backscatter response presents the lowest slope and CV values. A critical examination of the inter-channel areas indicates less variability within the estimated three parameters.

Explicitly Context-Aware Publish/Subscribe with Context-Invariant Subscriptions

Although context could be exploited to improve the performance, elasticity and adaptation in most distributed systems that adopt the publish/subscribe (P/S) model of communication, only very few works have explored domains with highly dynamic context, whereas most adopted models are context agnostic. In this paper, we present the key design principles underlying a novel context-aware content-based P/S (CA-CBPS) model of communication, where the context is explicitly managed, focusing on the minimization of network overhead in domains with recurrent context changes thanks to contextual scoping. We highlight how we dealt with the main shortcomings of most of the current approaches. Our research is some of the first to study the problem of explicitly introducing context-awareness into the P/S model to capitalize on contextual information. The envisioned CA-CBPS middleware enables the cloud ecosystem of services to communicate very efficiently, in a decoupled, but contextually scoped fashion.

Bandlimited Airy Pulses for Invariant Propagation in Single-Mode Fibers

By spectral analysis, and using joint time-frequency representations, we present the theoretical basis to design invariant bandlimited Airy pulses with an arbitrary degree of robustness and an arbitrary range of single-mode fiber chromatic dispersion. The numerically simulated examples confirm the theoretically predicted pulse partial invariance in the propagation of the pulse in the fiber.

On some sampling-related frames in U-invariant spaces

This paper concerns the characterization as frames of some sequences in U-invariant spaces of a separable Hilbert space H where U denotes an unitary operator defined on H ; besides, the dual frames having the same form are also found. This general setting includes, in particular, shift-invariant or modulation-invariant subspaces in L2 (R), where these frames are intimately related to the generalized sampling problem. We also deal with some related perturbation problems. In so doing, we need that the unitary operator U belongs to a continuous group of unitary operators.

Generalized sampling in U-invariant subspaces

In this work we carry out some results in sampling theory for U-invariant subspaces of a separable Hilbert space H, also called atomic subspaces. These spaces are a generalization of the well-known shift- invariant subspaces in L2 (R); here the space L2 (R) is replaced by H, and the shift operator by U. Having as data the samples of some related operators, we derive frame expansions allowing the recovery of the elements in Aa. Moreover, we include a frame perturbation-type result whenever the samples are affected with a jitter error.

Functionality of major histocompatibility complex class II molecules in mice doubly deficient for invariant chain and H-2M complexes

By combining two previously generated null mutations, Ii° and M°, we produced mice lacking the invariant chain and H-2M complexes, both required for normal cell-surface expression of major histocompatibility complex class II molecules loaded with the usual diverse array of peptides. As expected, the maturation and transport of class II molecules, their expression at the cell surface, and their capacity to present antigens were quite similar for cells from Ii°M° double-mutant mice and from animals carrying just the Ii° mutation. More surprising were certain features of the CD4+ T cell repertoire selected in Ii°M° mice: many fewer cells were selected than in Ii+M° animals, and these had been purged of self-reactive specificities, unlike their counterparts in Ii+M° animals. These findings suggest (i) that the peptides carried by class II molecules on stromal cells lacking H-2M complexes may almost all derive from invariant chain and (ii) that H-2M complexes edit the peptide array displayed on thymic stromal cells in the absence of invariant chain, showing that it can edit, in vivo, peptides other than CLIP.
