The shirt off his back

Get off the back burner!

A 65-year-old male presented with chronic mechanical back pain and a 6-month history of a discrete, hyperpig-mented reticular rash on his lower back. On further questioning, the patient admitted to daily use of an electric heating pad over the distribution of the rash (Figure 1). The diagnosis was erythema ab igne (EAI). Historically, EAI has been associated with repeated and prolonged exposure...

Inner city medicine: off the back burner.

A Power Efficient Back-Off . . .

In this paper, we propose a scheme to save power during the execution of backoff algorithm by avoiding idle listening. Existing MAC protocols for sensor networks reduces energy consumption by introducing an active/sleep duty cycle. But they can’t save energy during the execution of backoff algorithm. The propose scheme could further improve the energy efficiency of senor networks MAC protocols....

Back-off language model compression

With the availability of large amounts of training data relevant to speech recognition scenarios, scalability becomes a very productive way to improve language model performance. We present a technique that represents a back-off n-gram language model using arrays of integer values and thus renders it amenable to effective block compression. We propose a few such compression algorithms and evalu...
