spermatozoa. Because spermatozoa are largely incapable of de novo gene transcription and contemporaneous protein translation, their biology is highly dependent on changes in their proteomic landscape mediated by myriad posttranslational modifications, including the acquisition or loss of entire proteins. Proteomic changes in the epididymis, for example, are central to our understanding of how s...

Three-dimensional integration has the potential to increase integration density and to reduce communication latency of chip-multiprocessors (CMPs). However, high power density (i.e., power dissipation per unit volume) due to the high integration incurs temperature-related problems in reliability, power consumption, performance, and system cooling cost. In this paper, we propose a design-time so...
