ADSL transceivers applying DSM and their nonstationary noise robustness

Dynamic spectrum management (DSM) comprises a new set of techniques for multiuser power allocation and/or detection in digital subscriber line (DSL) networks. At the Alcatel Research and Innovation Labs, we have recently developed a DSM test bed, which allows the performance of DSM algorithms to be evaluated in practice. With this test bed, we have evaluated the performance of a DSM level-1 algorithm known as iterative water-filling in an ADSL scenario. This paper describes the results of, on the one hand, the performance gains achieved with iterative water-filling, and, on the other hand, the nonstationary noise robustness of DSM-enabled ADSL modems. It will be shown that DSM trades off nonstationary noise robustness for performance improvements. A new bit swap procedure is then introduced to increase the noise robustness when applying DSM.

Digital fiber nonlinearity compensation:toward 1-Tb/s transport

The world is connected by a core network of long-haul optical communication systems that link countries and continents, enabling long-distance phone calls, data-center communications, and the Internet. The demands on information rates have been constantly driven up by applications such as online gaming, high-definition video, and cloud computing. All over the world, end-user connection speeds are being increased by replacing conventional digital subscriber line (DSL) and asymmetric DSL (ADSL) with fiber to the home. Clearly, the capacity of the core network must also increase proportionally. © 1991-2012 IEEE.

Метамоделирование и Многоуровневые Метаданные как Основа Технологии Создания Адаптируемых Информационных Систем

Рассматриваются методы создания распределенных информационных систем, динамически настраиваемых на меняющиеся потребности пользователей и условия эксплуатации. Описываемые средства основаны на использовании многоуровневых моделей и метаданных, представляющих различные стороны функционирования систем на разных уровнях абстракции и с различных точек зрения. Основные уровни метаданных, описывающих систему: логический (описание объектов системы в терминах предметной области), физический (описание представления данных в базе данных) и презентационный (описание интерфейса пользователя системы). Модели и набор метаданных могут изменяться в процессе функционирования системы. На основе базовых моделей могут разрабатываться новые модели (в частности, созданы Web-модель, модели репортинга и бизнес-процессов). Представленный подход реализуется в CASE-технологии METAS, предназначенной для поддержания всего жизненного цикла адаптируемых систем. Функционирование системы строится на интерпретации построенных моделей. Возможности адаптации основаны на средствах реструктуризации данных, генерации и настройки пользовательского интерфейса, управления документами, подключения новых программных компонентов. В CASE-систему включены средства экспорта-импорта, реплицирования данных и моделей, интеграции с внешними системами, а также средства защиты. Разрабатываемые с использованием технологии информационные системы имеют клиент-серверную архитектуру. Технология METAS базируется на использовании языка UML и предметно-ориентированных языков для разработки моделей системы, описания бизнес-правил, специфических для конкретных предметных областей. Предусмотрены средства, позволяющие настраиваться на использование различных реляционных СУБД. Программная платформа – .NET.

Coccolithophore abundance and biometry in the South China Sea, 2014

Coccolithophore contributions to the global marine carbon cycle are regulated by the calcite content of their scales (coccoliths), and the relative cellular levels of photosynthesis and calcification. All three of these factors vary between coccolithophore species, and with response to the growth environment. Here, water samples were collected in the northern basin of the South China Sea (SCS) during summer 2014 in order to examine how environmental variability influenced species composition and cellular levels of calcite content. The vertical structure of the coccolithophore community was strongly regulated by mesoscale eddies. All living coccolithophores produced within the euphotic zone (1 % of surface irradiance), and Florisphaera profunda was a substantial coccolithophore and coccolith-calcite producer in the Deep Chlorophyll-a Maximum (DCM), especially in most oligotrophic anti-cyclonic eddy centers. Placolith-bearing coccolithophores, plus F. profunda, and other larger and numerically rare species made almost equal contributions to coccolith-based calcite in the water column. For Emiliania huxleyi biometry measurements, coccolith size positively correlated with nutrients, and it is suggested that coccolith length is influenced by nutrient and light related growth rates. However, larger sized coccoliths were related to low pH and calcite saturation, although it is not a simple cause and effect relationship. Genotypic or ecophenotypic variation may also be linked to coccolith size variation.

ArchWiSeN: uma estratégia baseada em modelos para desenvolvimento de aplicações para redes de sensores e atuadores sem fio

Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSAN) are a key component in Ubiquitous Computing Systems and have many applications in different knowledge domains. Programming for such networks is very hard and requires developers to know the available sensor platforms specificities, increasing the learning curve for developing WSAN applications. In this work, an MDA (Model-Driven Architecture) approach for WSAN applications development called ArchWiSeN is proposed. The goal of such approach is to facilitate the development task by providing: (i) A WSAN domain-specific language, (ii) a methodology for WSAN application development; and (iii) an MDA infrastructure composed of several software artifacts (PIM, PSMs and transformations). ArchWiSeN allows the direct contribution of domain experts in the WSAN application development without the need of specialized knowledge on WSAN platforms and, at the same time, allows network experts to manage the application requirements without the need for specific knowledge of the application domain. Furthermore, this approach also aims to enable developers to express and validate functional and non-functional requirements of the application, incorporate services offered by WSAN middleware platforms and promote reuse of the developed software artifacts. In this sense, this Thesis proposes an approach that includes all WSAN development stages for current and emerging scenarios through the proposed MDA infrastructure. An evaluation of the proposal was performed by: (i) a proof of concept encompassing three different scenarios performed with the usage of the MDA infrastructure to describe the WSAN development process using the application engineering process, (ii) a controlled experiment to assess the use of the proposed approach compared to traditional method of WSAN application development, (iii) the analysis of ArchWiSeN support of middleware services to ensure that WSAN applications using such services can achieve their requirements ; and (iv) systematic analysis of ArchWiSeN in terms of desired characteristics for MDA tool when compared with other existing MDA tools for WSAN.

Um dermatam sulfato antitrombótico do camarão Litopenaeus vanammei inibe a inflamação e angiogênese

Inflammation is combined of a vascular and a cellular reaction, resulting in different cells and tissue responses, both the intravascular and extravascular environment. As the inflammatory process occurs, coagulation proteases, in particular thrombin (FIIa), are able to initiate various cellular responses in vascular biology and therefore is often observed activation of other biological systems, leading to complications during an event inflammatory, such as thrombosis and angiogenesis. Thus, antagonists molecules of these events are interesting models for the development of novel anti-inflammatory drugs. Thereby, it is worth stressing the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which are able to interact with several proteins involved in important biological processes, including inflammation and coagulation. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic and anti-angiogenic potentials, as well anticoagulant of a dermatan sulfate-like GAG (DS) extracted from the Litopenaeus vannamei cephalotorax. The compound was obtained after proteolysis and purification by ion-exchange chromatography. After total digestion by DS-like compounds digesting lyases (chondroitinase ABC), the DS-like nature was revealed, and then called DSL. The shrimp compound showed reduced anticoagulant effect by the aPTT assay, but high anti-IIa activity, directly and through heparin cofactor II. On inflammation, the compound had a significant inhibitory effect with the reduction of proinflammatory cytokines. Potential Inhibitory were reported in the antithrombotic and anti-angiogenic assay, the latter being dose dependent. As for anti-hemostatic activity, the polysaccharides did not induced significant bleeding effect. Thus, the results shown by the shrimp DS-like compound indicate this glycosaminoglycan as a biotechnology target with prospects for the development of new multipotent drugs.

Progettazione e implementazione di una incarnazione biochimica per il simulatore Alchemist

Scopo di questo elaborato di tesi è la modellazione e l’implementazione di una estensione del simulatore Alchemist, denominata Biochemistry, che permetta di simulare un ambiente multi-cellulare. Al fine di simulare il maggior numero possibile di processi biologici, il simulatore dovrà consentire di modellare l’eterogeneità cellulare attraverso la modellazione di diversi aspetti dei sistemi cellulari, quali: reazioni intracellulari, segnalazione tra cellule adiacenti, giunzioni cellulari e movimento. Dovrà, inoltre, essere ammissibile anche l’esecuzione di azioni impossibili nel mondo reale, come la distruzione o la creazione dal nulla di molecole chimiche. In maniera più specifica si sono modellati ed implementati i seguenti processi biochimici: creazione e distruzione di molecole chimiche, reazioni biochimiche intracellulari, scambio di molecole tra cellule adiacenti, creazione e distruzione di giunzioni cellulari. È stata dunque posta particolare enfasi nella modellazione delle reazioni tra cellule vicine, il cui meccanismo è simile a quello usato nella segnalazione cellulare. Ogni parte del sistema è stata modellata seguendo fenomeni realmente presenti nei sistemi multi-cellulari, e documentati in letteratura. Per la specifica delle reazioni chimiche, date in ingresso alla simulazione, è stata necessaria l’implementazione di un Domain Specific Language (DSL) che consente la scrittura di reazioni in modo simile al linguaggio naturale, consentendo l’uso del simulatore anche a persone senza particolari conoscenze di biologia. La correttezza del progetto è stata validata tramite test compiuti con dati presenti in letteratura e inerenti a processi biologici noti e ampiamente studiati.

The silent statue theme: complex imitation and Neo-Latin poetry

This paper analyses how the topic of the silent statue is dealt with in Neo-Latin literature. The subject matter comes from the epigrams about Pythagoras of the Palatine Anthology. There are numerous Neo-Latin imitations of this topic that are complex as various sources are used at the same time. The authors focus on an active reading of the epigrams of their predecessors, applying the traditional motive to new subjects and adapting it to the religious theme.

Designing networked learning for innovation: A dimension perspective

In her presentation, Emmy discusses a case study where a teacher group is followed in its innovative attempt to start up a new curriculum. Searching for guidelines to facilitate knowledge-creating teacher groups, the ‘Dimensions of Social Learning (DSL) Framework’ is applied as a starting point to assess the group's social configuration. To supplement the DSL Framework towards knowledge creation, social capital and value creation theories were studied. This has resulted in an extended framework that can bring the knowledge creation of teacher groups into view.
