Paldimycin (antibiotic 273ai) and antibiotic 273a2 as well as their individual components, paldimycins A (273aia) and B (273ai)s) and antibiotics 273a2a and 273a2^ were synthesized from paulomycin, paulomycin A and paulomycin B, respectively, by reacting with 7V-acetyl-Lcysteine. The semisynthetic antibiotics had chromatographic behavior (TLC, HPLC)and physical and chemical properties identical...

A deeper understanding of the vacuum structure in QCD invites one to rethink certain aspects of the axion physics. The recent advances are mostly due to developments in supersymmetric gauge theories and the brane theory, in which QCD can be embedded. They include, but are not limited to, the studies of metastable vacua in multicolor gluodynamics, and the domain walls. We briefly review basics o...

Distributed heuristic search is a well established technique for multi-agent planning. It has been shown that distributed heuristics may crucially improve the search guidance, but are costly in terms of communication and computation time. One solution is to compute a heuristic additively, in the sense that each agent can compute its part of the heuristic independently and obtain a complete heur...

A novel streptogramin A, pleuromutilin, and lincosamide resistance determinant, Vga(E), was identified in porcine methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) ST398. The vga(E) gene encoded a 524-amino-acid protein belonging to the ABC transporter family. It was found on a multidrug resistance-conferring transposon, Tn6133, which was comprised of Tn554 with a stably integrated 4,787-bp DN...

For flexible mapping of various task-level pipelines on a multi-core processor, the authors proposed the memory-centric network-on-chip (NoC). The memory-centric NoC manages producer–consumer data transactions between the tasks in the case of task-level pipelines are distributed over multiple processing cores. Since the memory-centric NoC manages the data transactions, it relieves burden of the...

It is shown that any point in the capacity region of a Gaussian multiple-access channel is achievable by single-user coding without requiring synchronization among users, provided that each user “splits” data and signal into two parts. Based on this result, a new multiple-access technique called rate-splitting multiple accessing (RSMA) is proposed. RSMA is a code-division multiple-access scheme...

The SOCS project (A computational logic model for the description, analysis and verification of global and open SOcieties of heterogeneous ComputeeS), funded by the European Commission under the Fifth Framework, Future and Emerging Technologies programme, has been one of the main sponsors of CLIMA VI. This short article outlines the project’s main challenges and its main outcomes.

In this paper we focus on agent society and its indirect control. For the purpose we deal with the norm game as a material and introduce replicator dynamics (RD) of norm game. The norm game was introduced by R. Axelrod to explain how norm collapse [1]. We reformulate the norm game as a weak coupling model between two 1 dimensional RD. The one represents population dynamics of alternatives {C,D}...
