Introduction Cardiac excitation–contraction coupling is a transduction cascade that results in muscle contraction and relaxation. In ventricular myocytes, the arrival of an action potential activates sarcolemmal L-type Ca channels, and the subsequent inward Ca current, in turn, activates several RyRs in the SR membrane (the Ca release unit [CRU]). Activation of a CRU causes more Ca to be releas...

This document reports on our preliminary study of the power consumption of typical household networking equipment under different operational modes. Three ADSL modems are studied: Cisco 837, Linksys AG041 and Linksys WAG54G. We consider each modem’s power consumption when it is being in the Minimum Load (powered on with no physical ADSL/Ethernet connections), Idle (powered on with ADSL/Ethernet...
