The synchronous design paradigm dominates today’s semiconductor industry. However, this clocked approach is facing major challenges with high-speed, low-power expectations, using processes ever-increasing physical level variability. Several clock related issues surface in designs operating at higher frequencies, which make management increasingly difficult. Quasi-delay insensitive (QDI) ...

helicobacter pylori is an important human pathogen and a gram-negative, spiral shaped and microaerophilic bacteria with persistence colonization in gastric mucosa, causes gastroduodenal inflammation and destruction, resulting in diseases such as duodenal ulcer disease, gastric ulcer disease. when h.pylori discovered by warren and marshall, effective therapy developed for this infection and resu...

the binary and ternary codes spanned by the rows of the point by block incidence matrices of some 2-designs and their complementary and orthogonal designs are studied. a new method is also introduced to study optimal codes.

In higher eukaryotes, epithelial cell layers line most body cavities and form selective barriers that regulate the exchange of solutes between compartments. In order to fulfil these functions, the cells assume a polarised architecture and maintain two distinct plasma membrane domains, the apical domain facing the lumen and the basolateral domain facing other cells and the extracellular matrix. ...

Thank you for this invitation to share with you some thoughts on major issues facing Australian universities. Continuing development is very important for all staff, including for administrators who are crucial to much of universities’ successful operation. Joint staff development programs such as the one we are starting this morning managed by Universities Australia seem to me ideal in both po...

We investigated the familiar phenomenon of the uncanny feeling that represented people in frontal pose invariably appear to "face you" from wherever you stand. We deploy two different methods. The stimuli include the conventional one-a flat portrait rocking back and forth about a vertical axis-augmented with two novel variations. In one alternative, the portrait frame rotates whereas the actual...
