InfiniBand is a new standard for communication between processing nodes and I/O devices as well as for interprocessor communication. The InfiniBand Architecture (IBA) supports distributed deterministic routing because forwarding tables store a single output port per destination ID. This prevents packets from using alternative paths when the requested output port is busy. Despite the fact that a...

The novel formulation of alkali-activated binders (AABs) using incineration bottom ash (IBA) from fluidised bed (FB) combustion technology as a sole precursor was assessed. In addition, IBA-FB compared with IBA moving grate (IBA-MG) technology. AABs formulated (AAB-FB) and IBA-MG (AAB-MG) were also evaluated physicochemical, mechanical, environmental perspective. results revealed that specific ...

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic organ that is vital for hibernation in mammals. Throughout the hibernation season, BAT mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) enables rapid rewarming from hypothermic torpor to periodic interbout arousals (IBAs), as energy is dissipated as heat. However, BAT's unique ability to rewarm the body via nonshivering thermogenesis is not necessary outside...

Due to the importance of adsorption kinetics and redox transformation of arsenic (As) during the adsorption process, the present study elucidated natural organic matter (NOM) effects on As adsorption-desorption kinetics and speciation transformation. The experimental procedures were conducted by examining interactions of arsenate and arsenite with different concentrations of humic acid (HA) as ...

Nodal segments (1.5 3.0 cm long) of six promising jojoba genotypes were cultured in vitro on solidified MS medium supplemented with BA in combination with different concentrations of NAA, IAA or IBA for shoot formation. The plant growth regulators combination of 5.55 μM BA + 7.1 μM IAA proved the best for shoot initiation and subsequent growth. Some explants of the jojoba genotypes, PKJ-3 and P...

Ion beam analysis (IBA) is a cluster of techniques including Rutherford and non-Rutherford backscattering spectrometry and particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE). Recently, the ability to treat multiple IBA techniques (including PIXE) self-consistently has been demonstrated. The utility of IBA for accurately depth profiling thin films is critically reviewed. As an important example of IBA, thre...

The effects of changes in intracellular and extracellular free ionized [Mg2+] on inactivation of ICa and IBa in isolated ventricular myocytes of the frog were investigated using the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique. Intracellular [Mg2+] was varied by internal perfusion with solutions having different calculated free [Mg2+]. Increasing [Mg2+]i from 0.3 mM to 3.0 mM caused a ...

The present investigation was carried out at Horticultural Research Institute, Ayub Agricultural Faisalabad during 2017-2019 to evaluate the effect of different growth regulators on root induction Date palm suckers. There were six treatments i.e., T0 (Control), T1 (Indol butyric Acid (IBA) @2000 ppm), T2 (IBA@4000 T3 (Naphthalene Acetic (NAA) T4 (NAA@3000), T5 (IBA@2000 ppm + NAA@2000 ppm). Gro...

A new pseudocyclic triflate derivative of benziodoxole (IBA-OTf) was prepared and characterized by X-ray analysis. This highly electrophilic reagent readily reacts with various organic substrates to give the corresponding products in good yields. Furthermore, IBA-OTf can be used as a catalyst with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid as the terminal oxidant.

We have been studying the techniques for evolutionary robotics and experimenting with various robots applied evolutionary methods. We have paid special attentions to real robots and multi-agent problems with them. In this research domain, we named them as “Ingeniously Behaving Agents (IBA)”. This paper shows several techniques developed in our IBA laboratory and their experimental results appli...
