Here we report a young gentleman who was diagnosed as stroke in young and found to have dilated cardiomyopathy, with left ventricular dysfunction and hyperh...

Myriad: Cost-Effective Disaster Tolerance

This paper proposes a new approach for achieving disaster tolerance in large, geographically-distributed storage systems. The system, called Myriad, can achieve the same level of disaster tolerance as a typical single mirrored solution, but uses considerably fewer physical resources, by employing cross-site checksums (via erasure codes) instead of direct replication. The key technical contribut...

Myriad Uses of Botulinum Toxin

Botulinum toxin (BTX) is an endotoxin produced by Clostridium botulinum, a gram-positive anaerobic bacterium1. Seven serotypes of botulinum toxin (BonT) are known and these are labeled as types A, B, C (Cl, C2, D, E, F, and G. These are structurally similar. BonT molecule is synthesized as a single chain (150 Kd) and then cleaved to form the dichain molecule with a disulfide bridge. The light c...
