Antibiotic resistance, production of alginate and virulence factors, and altered host immune responses are the hallmarks of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Failure of antibiotic therapy has been attributed to the emergence of P. aeruginosa strains that produce β-lactamase constitutively. In Enterobacteriaceae, β-lactamase induction involves four genes with known functions: ampC, ampR, ampD, and ampG, encoding the enzyme, transcriptional regulator, amidase and permease, respectively. In addition to all these amp genes, P. aeruginosa possesses two ampG paralogs, designated ampG and ampP. In this study, P. aeruginosa ampC, ampR, ampG and ampP were analyzed. Inactivation of ampC in the prototypic PAO1 failed to abolish the β-lactamase activity leading to the discovery of P. aeruginosa oxacillinase PoxB. Cloning and expression of poxB in Escherichia coli confers β-lactam resistance. Both AmpC and PoxB contribute to P. aeruginosa resistance against a wide spectrum of β-lactam antibiotics. The expression of PoxB and AmpC is regulated by a LysR-type transcriptional regulator AmpR that up-regulates AmpC but down-regulates PoxB activities. Analyses of P. aeruginosa ampR mutant demonstrate that AmpR is a global regulator that modulates the expressions of Las and Rhl quorum sensing (QS) systems, and the production of pyocyanin, LasA protease and LasB elastase. Introduction of the ampR mutation into an alginate-producing strain reveals the presence of a complex co-regulatory network between antibiotic resistance, QS alginate and other virulence factor production. Using phoA and lacZ protein fusion analyses, AmpR, AmpG and AmpP were localized to the inner membrane with one, 16 and 10 transmembrane helices, respectively. AmpR has a cytoplasmic DNA-binding and a periplasmic substrate binding domains. AmpG and AmpP are essential for the maximal expression of β-lactamase. Analysis of the murein breakdown products suggests that AmpG exports UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine-γ-D-glutamate-meso-diaminopimelic acid-D-alanine-D-alanine (UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide), the corepressor of AmpR, whereas AmpP imports N-acetylglucosaminyl-beta-1,4-anhydro-N-acetylmuramic acid-Ala-γ-D-Glu-meso-diaminopimelic acid (GlcNAc-anhMurNAc-tripeptide) and GlcNAc-anhMurNAc-pentapeptide, the co-inducers of AmpR. This study reveals a complex interaction between the Amp proteins and murein breakdown products involved in P. aeruginosa β-lactamase induction. In summary, this dissertation takes us a little closer to understanding the P. aeruginosa complex co-regulatory mechanism in the development of β-lactam resistance and establishment of chronic infection. ^

Today, the development of domain-specific communication applications is both time-consuming and error-prone because the low-level communication services provided by the existing systems and networks are primitive and often heterogeneous. Multimedia communication applications are typically built on top of low-level network abstractions such as TCP/UDP socket, SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) and RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) APIs. The User-centric Communication Middleware (UCM) is proposed to encapsulate the networking complexity and heterogeneity of basic multimedia and multi-party communication for upper-layer communication applications. And UCM provides a unified user-centric communication service to diverse communication applications ranging from a simple phone call and video conferencing to specialized communication applications like disaster management and telemedicine. It makes it easier to the development of domain-specific communication applications. The UCM abstraction and API is proposed to achieve these goals. The dissertation also tries to integrate the formal method into UCM development process. The formal model is created for UCM using SAM methodology. Some design errors are found during model creation because the formal method forces to give the precise description of UCM. By using the SAM tool, formal UCM model is translated to Promela formula model. In the dissertation, some system properties are defined as temporal logic formulas. These temporal logic formulas are manually translated to promela formulas which are individually integrated with promela formula model of UCM and verified using SPIN tool. Formal analysis used here helps verify the system properties (for example multiparty multimedia protocol) and dig out the bugs of systems.

Il seguente lavoro di tesi si inserisce all'interno di un progetto accademico volto alla realizzazione di un sistema capace elaborare immagini utilizzando una rete FPGA, acquisite da un sensore. Ogni scrittura di un nuovo frame in memoria RAM genera un interrupt. L'obiettivo della tesi è creare un sistema client/server che permetta il trasferimento del flusso di frame dalla ZedBoard a un PC e la visualizzazione a video. Il progetto eseguito sulla ZedBoard è proposto in due versioni: la prima in assenza di sistema operativo (Standalone) e una seconda implementata su Linux. Il progetto eseguito sul PC è compatibile con Linux e Windows. La visualizzazione delle immagini è implementata utilizzando la libreria OpenCV.

Il presente lavoro consiste nella realizzazione di un'interfaccia utente adibita all'assegnamento di missioni e al monitoraggio remoto di un rover agricolo autonomo. Sfruttando l'informatica per la sua implementazione, tale interfaccia trova invece applicazione nel campo dell'automazione e dell'agricoltura di precisione. L'utilizzatore ha perciò la facoltà di muovere il rover in campo aperto e di demandargli missioni specifiche, ricevendo allo stesso tempo un feedback continuo sul suo operato. L'applicativo software comunica quindi in maniera bidirezionale con il veicolo controllato ed è predisposto per sfruttare diversi canali di comunicazione (antenne seriali, pacchetti udp, socket tcp). La scrittura del codice è stata seguita da una serie di prove di comunicazione con il veicolo, effettuate indoor, e infine da alcuni test completi effettuati outdoor, con il rover in movimento.

La presente investigación estudia la transición ideológica en la mentalidad de las élites intelectuales del Virreinato de la Nueva Granada en las percepciones de su paisaje, su territorio y su geografía entre los periodos de la Ilustración y el Romanticismo, con el ánimo de entender su papel en la construcción de la identidad nacional colombiana. Se analizan los vínculos racionales y emocionales entre la sociedad y su país bajo la premisa de que el conocimiento del territorio, de sus particularidades geográficas y riquezas naturales, contribuyó a la conciencia de patria que la élite intelectual de la colonia iba forjando durante las guerras de independencia. Para ello, se realiza un análisis historiográfico del discurso público, específicamente de la narrativa, las artes y otras manifestaciones culturales. Hipótesis, objetivos y metodología El objetivo principal es explorar hasta qué punto las descripciones del paisaje y de la geografía de Colombia, efectuadas entre 1767 y 1850, proyectaron una realidad vinculada a la percepción territorial de la patria. Para ello, se estudian los mecanismos de la apropiación del entorno que parten de descripciones racionales y/o interpretaciones que implican conexiones emocionales, teniendo siempre en cuenta la situación social y política en cada momento. Se analiza la transición conceptual entre el periodo colonial y el republicano en cuanto a la percepción del territorio y cómo éste último se convirtió en uno de los elementos esenciales para la construcción de las distintas nociones de patria que se irán sucediendo a lo largo de los primeros años de las repúblicas independientes de lo que antes fuera la Nueva Granada. Para ello se estudia especialmente la literatura impresa en la época con el objeto de constatar cómo el concepto de territorio fue utilizado en la formación de la idea de patria...

Erasure control coding has been exploited in communication networks with an aim to improve the end-to-end performance of data delivery across the network. To address the concerns over the strengths and constraints of erasure coding schemes in this application, we examine the performance limits of two erasure control coding strategies, forward erasure recovery and adaptive erasure recovery. Our investigation shows that the throughput of a network using an (n, k) forward erasure control code is capped by r =k/n when the packet loss rate p ≤ (te/n) and by k(l-p)/(n-te) when p > (t e/n), where te is the erasure control capability of the code. It also shows that the lower bound of the residual loss rate of such a network is (np-te)/(n-te) for (te/n) < p ≤ 1. Especially, if the code used is maximum distance separable, the Shannon capacity of the erasure channel, i.e. 1-p, can be achieved and the residual loss rate is lower bounded by (p+r-1)/r, for (1-r) < p ≤ 1. To address the requirements in real-time applications, we also investigate the service completion time of different schemes. It is revealed that the latency of the forward erasure recovery scheme is fractionally higher than that of the scheme without erasure control coding or retransmission mechanisms (using UDP), but much lower than that of the adaptive erasure scheme when the packet loss rate is high. Results on comparisons between the two erasure control schemes exhibit their advantages as well as disadvantages in the role of delivering end-to-end services. To show the impact of the bounds derived on the end-to-end performance of a TCP/IP network, a case study is provided to demonstrate how erasure control coding could be used to maximize the performance of practical systems. © 2010 IEEE.

The difluoromethyl-allo-threonyl hydroxamate-based compound LPC-058 is a potent inhibitor of UDP-3-O-(R-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (LpxC) in Gram-negative bacteria. A scalable synthesis of this compound is described. The key step in the synthetic sequence is a transition metal/base-catalyzed aldol reaction of methyl isocyanoacetate and difluoroacetone, giving rise to 4-(methoxycarbonyl)-5,5-disubstituted 2-oxazoline. A simple NMR-based determination of enantiomeric purity is also described.

In this study, we present the winter time surface energy balance at a polygonal tundra site in northern Siberia based on independent measurements of the net radiation, the sensible heat flux and the ground heat flux from two winter seasons. The latent heat flux is inferred from measurements of the atmospheric turbulence characteristics and a model approach. The long-wave radiation is found to be the dominant factor in the surface energy balance. The radiative losses are balanced to about 60 % by the ground heat flux and almost 40 % by the sensible heat fluxes, whereas the contribution of the latent heat flux is small. The main controlling factors of the surface energy budget are the snow cover, the cloudiness and the soil temperature gradient. Large spatial differences in the surface energy balance are observed between tundra soils and a small pond. The ground heat flux released at a freezing pond is by a factor of two higher compared to the freezing soil, whereas large differences in net radiation between the pond and soil are only observed at the end of the winter period. Differences in the surface energy balance between the two winter seasons are found to be related to differences in snow depth and cloud cover which strongly affect the temperature evolution and the freeze-up at the investigated pond.

Durante las tres últimas décadas, numerosos/as arqueólogos/as han discutido extensamente sobre el ritual funerario original de las poblaciones del sur ibérico entre los siglos ix y vi a.c., esto es, cremación o inhumación. Este debate está además conectado con la existencia o no de complejidad social antes de la llegada fenicia, con la aparición de una élite “orientalizada” y con la adopción de nuevos objetos y prácticas por las poblaciones locales. En este artículo hago uso del concepto deleuziano de “desterritorialización” y lo asocio con el de “frontera” desarrollado por anzaldúa para interpretar la sociedad del sur ibérico. Para ello, analizo la evidencia funeraria indígena y cuestiono la división estricta entre cremación e inhumación en la región; así como examino la profundidad y significado de los cambios funerarios en las comunidades locales.
