We present a novel use of the OpenSound Control (OSC) protocol to represent the output of gestural controllers as well as the input to sound synthesis processes. With this scheme, the problem of mapping gestural input into sound synthesis control becomes a simple translation from OSC messages into other OSC messages. We provide examples of this strategy and show benefits including increased enc...

This paper proposes a theory of encapsulation, establishing a relationship between encapsulation and information hiding through the concept of potential structural complexity (P.S.C.), the maximum possible number of source code dependencies that can exist between program units in a software system. The P.S.C. of various, simple systems is examined in an attempt to demonstrate how P.S.C. changes...

We report on the first silica encapsulation of a metazoan (Daphnia magna), with a high initial viability (96% of the population remained active 48 h after encapsulation). Moreover, the co-encapsulation of this crustacean and microalgae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) was achieved, creating inside a silica monolith, the smallest microcosm developed to present. This artificial ecosystem in a gr...

At CRYPTO 2004, Kurosawa and Desmedt presented a new hybrid encryption scheme that is CCA2-secure in the standard model. Until now it was unknown if the key encapsulation part of the Kurosawa-Desmedt scheme by itself is still CCA2-secure or not. In this note we answer this question to the negative, namely we present a simple CCA2 attack on the Kurosawa-Desmedt key encapsulation mechanism. Our a...

Microencapsulated dosage forms represent effective new therapeutic platforms. This special issue will cover the different interests of microencapsulation as a means to control or modify the release of drug substances from drug delivery systems. To overcome the drug stability problem, since clinical efficacies have been reported to be improved by the encapsulation of pharmaceuticals, the bioavai...

This paper presents a fluid–structure interaction (FSI) analysis of ball grid array (BGA) package encapsulation. Real-time and simultaneous FSI analysis is conducted by using finite volume code (FLUENT) and finite element code (ABAQUS), which are coupled with MpCCI. A BGA integrated circuit (IC) package with different solder bump arrangements is considered in this study. In the FSI analysis, ef...

Despite of turmeric oleoresin having many advantages over ground turmeric roots, its sensitivity to light, heat and oxygen is a disadvantage. One approach to overcome this problem is microencapsulation. The objective of this work was to investigate the influence of different ratios of maltodextrin/gelatin used as wall materials, as well as the use of ultrasound during the emulsification step on...

In order to improve its stability and catalytic rate in flour, the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOX) was investigated in this work. The enzyme was encapsulated in calcium alginate-chitosan microspheres (CACM) using an emulsification-internal gelation-GOX adsorption-chitosan coating method. The interaction between alginate and chitosan was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy (IR). The resul...
