Most of the electronic circuits designed today use binary logic. However, will binary logic be the leading technology in the future, why not uses balanced ternary logic, implemented using recharged semi-floating gate (RSFG) devices, instead? This paper gives some measurements and analyzes novel applications using CMOS RSFG technology.

It is generally acknowledged that when, in 1988, John Chambers and Richard Becker incorporated the S AUDIT facility into their S statistical programming language and environment, they created one of the first provenance-aware applications. Since then, S has been spiritually succeeded by the open-sourceR project; however,R has no such facility for tracking provenance. This paper looks at how pro...

In order to investigate some characteristics of Millipore diffusion chamber cultures (DCC) and their potential for the quantitation of tumor cell growth kinetics, HeLa S-3-cells were grown in diffusion chambers implanted i.p. in mice. HeLa cells grew pseudologarithmically in DCC with a population-doubling time of approximately 2.8 days when 9.2 to 12.0 X 10(5) cells were placed in the chambers ...

Introduction For dose measurement in Megavoltage (MV) photon beams with ion chambers, the effect of volume occupied by the air cavity is not negligible. Therefore, the result of measurement should be corrected with a displacement perturbation correction factor (Pdis) or using an effective point of measurement (EPOM). The aim of this study is to calculate the EPOM for cylindrical ion chamber and...

It’ll be essential to cooperate with foreigners during a rise in the percentage of the aged population in recent years, because of this unsustainable national medical emergency situation as well as problems of other industries in Japan. In November 2009, we made a contract for our sister hospitals between National Hospital Organization Kumamoto Medical Center and Khon Kaen Regional Hospital, Kh...

The Sub-Saharan part of the African continent is the area that has the highest disease burden in the world and is the only region of the planet where it is expected that the number of poor people will increase in the coming decades. The countries of this region, to different degrees, experience slow process of population aging but at the same time, it is the are where the elderly population gro...
