LLSIM Reference Manual

A program that simulates a Digital Equipment Corporation PDP-11 computer and many of its peripherals on the AI Laboratory Time Sharing System (ITS) is described from a user's reference point of view. This simulator has a built in DDT-like command level which provides the user with the normal range of DDT facilities but also with several special debugging features built into the simulator. The DDT command language was implemented by Richard M. Stallman while the simulator was written by the author of this memo.

An ATM distributed simulator for network management research

Due to the high cost of a large ATM network working up to full strength to apply our ideas about network management, i.e., dynamic virtual path (VP) management and fault restoration, we developed a distributed simulation platform for performing our experiments. This platform also had to be capable of other sorts of tests, such as connection admission control (CAC) algorithms, routing algorithms, and accounting and charging methods. The platform was posed as a very simple, event-oriented and scalable simulation. The main goal was the simulation of a working ATM backbone network with a potentially large number of nodes (hundreds). As research into control algorithms and low-level, or rather cell-level methods, was beyond the scope of this study, the simulation took place at a connection level, i.e., there was no real traffic of cells. The simulated network behaved like a real network accepting and rejecting SNMP ones, or experimental tools using the API node

Evaluation of the Toxic Effect from Eupatorium Microphyllum L.F. (Asteraceae) Extracts on Aedes Aegypti Larvae (Diptera: Culicidae) in Laboratory Conditions

In the present work the toxic activity of extracts of Eupatorium microphyllum L.F. was evaluated on 4th instar larvae of the mosquito Aedes aegypti (Linneaus), under laboratory conditions. Aqueous extracts were utilized in concentrations of 500 mg L-1, 1,500 mg L-1 and 2,500 mg L-1 and acetone in concentrations of 10 mg L-1, 20 mg L-1, 30 mg L-1, 40 mg L-1and 50 mg L-1. The bioassays were carried out for triplicate each one with 20 larvae, exposed for 24 hours to 150 mL of solution. In all the bioassays were employed control groups. In the evaluation of the acetone extracts, a negative control was employed to avoid that the mortality of the larvae to occur on account of the solvent. The Aqueous extracts showed low moderate action in the mortality of larvae, less than 20%. On the contrary, the action of the acetone extracts was observed to 10 and 20 mg L-1with 15% of mortality, while to 30 and 40 mg L-1 were registered 22 to 38% of mortality. However, to 50 mg L-1 the mortality was of 95.4% with highly significant statistical results. The concentrations of the acetone extracts showed to be the most efficient for the control of the mosquitoes selected. Both types of extracts showed toxic effect in larvae of A. aegypti, nevertheless, greater effect in the acetone extracts was observed relating to the aqueous extracts of E. microphyllum, which constitutes a viable alternative in the search of new larvicides from composed natural.

New insights into boar sperm function and survival from integrated field and laboratory studies

En aquesta tesi s'han dut a terme dos tipus d'estudis diferents. L'objectiu del primer era la preservació del semen de porcí a 15ºC i el del segon eren els co-cultius homòlegs de cèl·lules epitelials de l'oviducte i espermatozoides de porcí. Pel que fa al primer estudi, s'ha observat que l'addició de la prostaglandina F2α i àcid hialurònic a les dosis seminals no malmena la qualitat espermàtica i que la tolerància dels espermatozoides als canvis d'osmolalitat del medi es pot correlacionar proves de fertilitat i prolificitat.. Respecte el segon, s'ha determinat que les cèl·lules oviductals afecten els paràmetres espermàtics i que la presència d'espermatozoides sobreexpressa els gens que codifiquen per les proteïnes de xoc tèrmic. Així, se suggereix que aquestes proteïnes tenen algun paper en els processos reproductius que tenen lloc a l'oviducte, malgrat que s'hagi observat, mitjançant la tècnica de la interferència de l'RNA, que la HSP90AA1 no està implicada en el perllongament de la viabilitat espermàtica.
