The features of transmissions in underwater sensor networks (UWSNs) include lower transmission rate, longer delay time, and higher power consumption when compared with terrestrial radio transmissions. The negative effects of transmission collisions deteriorate in such environments. Existing UWSN routing protocols do not consider the transmission collision probability differences resulting from ...

This application note provides a method to dynamically change the clock output frequency, phase shift, and duty cycle of the mixed-mode clock manager (MMCM) for the Xilinx® 7 series and UltraScaleTM FPGAs. Similarly, the phase-locked loop (PLL) can be changed through the dynamic reconfiguration port (DRP). An explanation of the behavior of the internal DRP control registers is accompanied by a ...

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that undergo fusion and fission processes. These events are regulated by mitochondria-shaping proteins. Changes in the expression and/or localization of these proteins lead to a mitochondrial dynamics impairment and may promote apoptosis. Increasing evidence correlates the mitochondrial dynamics disruption with the occurrence of neurodegenerative diseases. Th...

At present it is common to use geographic information system (GIS) applications to assess runoff generation. One of these GIS-based tools to generate maps of dominant runoff processes is the so called GIS-DRP approach. The tool, which has been developed mainly based on agricultural areas, uses commonly available input data like a digital elevation model (DEM), geological information as well as ...

Batch schedulers commonly used to manage access to parallel computing clusters are not typically configured to enable easy configuration of application-specific scheduling policies. In addition, their sophisticated scheduling algorithms can be relatively expensive to execute. Thus, for example, applications that require the rapid execution of many small tasks often do not perform well. Frey pro...

Analysis and experiments have shown that hierarchical problem solving is most ef fective when the hierarchy satis es the downward re nement property DRP whereby every abstract solution can be re ned to a concrete level solution without backtracking across abstraction levels However the DRP is a strong requirement that is not often met in practice In this paper we examine the case when the DRP f...

Base excision repair (BER) is one of the cellular defense mechanisms repairing damage to nucleoside 5'-monophosphate residues in genomic DNA. This repair pathway is initiated by spontaneous or enzymatic N-glycosidic bond cleavage creating an abasic or apurinic-apyrimidinic (AP) site in double-stranded DNA. Class II AP endonuclease, deoxyribonucleotide phosphate (dRP) lyase, DNA synthesis, and D...
