This document specifies the Depth-First Forwarding (DFF) protocol for IPv6 networks, a data-forwarding mechanism that can increase reliability of data delivery in networks with dynamic topology and/or lossy links. The protocol operates entirely on the forwarding plane but may interact with the routing plane. DFF forwards data packets using a mechanism similar to a "depth-first search" for the d...

2,5-Diformylfuran (DFF) is an important biorenewable building block, namely for the manufacture of new polymers that may replace existing materials derived from limited fossil fuel resources. The current reported methods for the preparation of DFF are mainly derived from the oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and, to a lesser extent, directly from fructose. 5-Chloromethylfurfural (CMF) ...

A cell-level radiation hardening by design (RHBD) method based on commercial processes of single event transient (SET) and upset (SEU) is proposed in this paper, which new radiation-hardened D-type flip-flops (DFFs) are designed. An application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) a million gates level developed DFFs, SEU functional interruption (SEFI) heavy-ion tests carried out. The experimenta...

In this paper, we propose a novel face feature extraction method based on deep learning. Using synthesized multi-view face images, we train a deep face feature (DFF) extractor based on the correlation between projections of a face point on images from different views. A feature vector can be extracted for each pixel of the face image based on the trained DFF model, and it is more effective than...

This paper proposes a novel transmission line fault location scheme, combining stationary wavelet transform (SWT), determinant function feature (DFF), support vector machine (SVM) and support vector regression (SVR). Various types of faults at different locations, fault impedance and fault inception angles on a 400 kV, 361.297 km transmission line are investigated. The system only utilizes sing...

We report here the reconstitution of a pathway that leads to the apoptotic changes in nuclei by using recombinant DNA fragmentation factor (DFF), a heterodimeric protein of 40 and 45 kDa. Coexpression of DFF40 and DFF45 is required to generate recombinant DFF, which becomes activated when DFF45 is cleaved by caspase-3. The cleaved fragments of DFF45 dissociate from the DFF40, the active compone...

We discuss the quantization of a particle near an extreme Reissner-Nordström black hole in the canonical formalism. This model appears to be described by a Hamiltonian with no well-defined ground state. This problem can be circumvented by a redefinition of the Hamiltonian due to de Alfaro, Fubini and Furlan (DFF). We show that the Hamiltonian with no ground state corresponds to a gauge in which...

Introduction 5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (HMF), as diformylfurane precursor (DFF), is obtained from fructose or glucose dehydration. DFF is a versatile chemical, and there are numerous reports describing various applications as a monomer, as starting materials for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and antifungal agents [1]. To date, few reports describe the use of air to oxidize (HMF) with het...

DNA fragmentation into internucleosomal fragments is the best recognized biochemical event of apoptosis. Two major caspase pathways have been identified in the signal transduction leading to DNA fragmentation: the receptor pathway and the mitochondrial pathway. DNA fragmentation factor (DFF) has been identified as a major apoptotic endonuclease in the internucleosomal DNA fragmentation process....

We discuss the quantization of a system of slowly-moving extreme Reissner-Nordström black holes. In the near-horizon limit, this system has been shown to possess an SL(2, R) conformal symmetry. However, the Hamiltonian appears to have no well-defined ground state. This problem can be circumvented by a redefinition of the Hamiltonian due to de Alfaro, Fubini and Furlan (DFF). We apply the Faddee...
