Hardware support for high-performance computing (HPC) has so far been subject to significant advances. The pervasiveness of HPC systems, mainly made up with parallel computing units, makes it crucial to spread and vivify effective HPC curricula. Besides didactic considerations, it appears very important to implement HPC hardware infrastructures that will serves for practices, and also for scien...

Although the field of High Performance Computing (HPC) has been evolving rapidly, the development of standardized software systems – MPI, OpenMP, LAPACK, PETSc and others – has in principle made HPC accessible to a wider community. However, relatively few scientists and engineers take advantage of computational science and engineering (CSE) in their research, in part because of the considerable...

Here, we report that cytokine-induced (granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and IL-8) hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) mobilization is completely inhibited after low-dose (0.5 Gy) total-body irradiation (TBI). Because neutrophil granular proteases are regulatory mediators in cytokine-induced HSC/HPC mobilization, we considered a possible role for protease i...

The hippocampus (HPC) is functionally heterogeneous along the longitudinal anterior-posterior axis. In rodent models, gene expression maps define at least three discrete longitudinal subregions, which also differ in function, and in anatomical connectivity with the rest of the brain. In humans, equivalent HPC subregions are less well defined, resulting in a lack of consensus in neuroimaging app...

High-performance computing (HPC) plays very important role in the sphere of information technology as well as defines the strategic direction for interand trans-disciplinary breakthroughs ensuring the essential influence on local and global markets. The current status of HPC systems development in different countries is analyzed in the paper. The constraints for an active involvement the HPC in...

To determine the production of recombinant human protein C (rec-hPC) in milk, we created two homozygous mice lines for the goat β-casein/hPC transgene. Females and males of both lines (#10 and #11) displayed normal growth, fertility, and lactated normally. The copy number of the transgene was about fivefold higher in #10 line as compared to #11 line. mRNA expression of the transgene was only de...

Developing point convolution for irregular clouds to extract deep features remains challenging. Current methods evaluate the response by computing set distances which account only spatial alignment between two sets, but not quite their underlying shapes. Without a shape-aware response, it is hard characterize 3D geometry of cloud efficiently with compact kernels. In this paper, we advocate use ...

In this work polyaniline nanocomposites were synthesized in aqueous media by using ammonium proxy disulfat (APS) (10g/l) as an oxidant in the presence of hydroxy propyl cellulose (HPC) (2,5,10 g/l) as a surfactant, poly (vinyl chloride) (10,30 g/l) as an additive and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The effects of concentration of surfactant and additive on morphology have been ...
