In this paper we present an alternative to deal with the traces scalability problem, from the point of view of performance analysis tools. Nowadays, it is not surprising to have applications running in real production systems for hours and using thousands of processes. This keeps on increasing everyday, bringing us closer to the Petascale. It is clear that, blind tracing in such scenarios produ...

Positive serum tests for infectious mononucleosis (IM) unaccompanied by the clinical syndrome or blood changes characteristic of the disease were detected in 39/177 (22%) mentally subnormal patients investigated with three different commercially available IM slide tests. Slide positively was still detectable six months later in 27/35 (77%) positive reactors. Positive IM slide tests were signifi...

We have recently shown that waste heat from forced-air warming blankets can increase the temperature and concentration of airborne particles over the surgical site. The mechanism for the increased concentration of particles and their site of origin remained unclear. We therefore attempted to visualise the airflow in theatre over a simulated total knee replacement using neutral-buoyancy helium b...

AND CONCLUSION In this study various quality aspects of the CellVision, Leja, and MicroCell disposable sperm cell counting slides were investigated. The height of the chambers was determined using interferometric spectrometry. The average heights of the Leja and MicroCell were very close, respectively 20.0 μm and 20.3 μm, whereas the CellVision was lower than specification (17.9 μm). The accura...

We collected indoor air, surface wipes (floors, table tops, and window sills), and floor dust samples at multiple locations within 11 occupied and two unoccupied homes both before and after lawn application of the herbicide 2,4-D. We measured residues 1 week before and after application. We used collected samples to determine transport routes of 2,4-D from the lawn into the homes, its subsequen...

Introduction: The application of Whole Slide Images (WSI) as virtual slides (VS) is the clue of digital pathology. Two main factors limit currently the application of WSI in daily use: the scanning speed and the expectation of constant image quality. The automatic scan process should ensure a constant image quality at a high level. Meanwhile many libraries of VS exist for educational, research ...

After introducing the central air-conditioning terminal units system, established a fuzzy control system based on Lonworks. System focuses on the design of fuzzy controller with intelligent nodes, Input signal of fuzzy controller were the concentration and concentration rate of CO2, output signal was the volume of fresh air change, designed a two-dimension fuzzy controller. Based on the search ...
