A major problem in our earlier proposal for a C interface was that a part of the interface was not portable between platforms. The libcc interface solves this problem by using a C compiler and its .h-files. The .h-files contain knowledge about the specific platform, and the C compiler automatically inserts the necessary conversions between Forth and C types. In this paper we describe the libcc ...

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) comprises 2-3% of all malignancies. Approximately 90% of renal tumors are RCCs, and 15% of these are non-clear cell tumors, which include papillary, chromophobe, Bellini duct (collecting duct) and sarcomatoid tumors. Antiangiogenic agents (sorafenib, sunitinib, pazopanib, temsirolimus, or bevacizumab), have not been specifically evaluated in phase III trials in patien...

Software projects that use a compiled language are built hundreds of thousands of times during their lifespan. Hence, the compiler is invoked over and over again on an incrementally changing source base. As previous work has shown, up to 97 percent of these invocations are redundant and do not lead to an altered compilation result. In order to avoid such redundant builds, many developers use ca...

This paper introduces TweetNaCl, a compact reimplementation of the NaCl library, including all 25 of the NaCl functions used by applications. TweetNaCl is published on Twitter and fits into just 100 tweets; the tweets are available from anywhere, any time, in an unsuspicious way. Distribution via other social media, or even printed on a sheet of A4 paper, is also easily possible. TweetNaCl is h...

The management of patients with chronic respiratory diseases affected by difficult to treat infections has become a challenge in clinical practice. Conditions such as cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-CF bronchiectasis require extensive treatment strategies to deal with multidrug resistant pathogens that include Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Burkholderia specie...

the subject of transplant immunosuppression has generated significant interest in recent years. excellent immunosuppression, advances in surgical technique, post-transplantation care, and infection control have resulted in excellent outcomes. there is widespread support for the notion that the fundamental objective in transplant immunology should be the achievement of specific graft tolerance. ...
