15 drafts of the paper. Special thanks to John Ousterhout for providing the modified benchmark and for technical assistance and guidance. Beside additional development, it would be useful to conduct research using the Sprite server. For example, it would be interesting to compare the performance of the Sprite server with the performance of a similar server that uses Mach IPC for remote device a...

Shock waves generated at different parts of vehicle interact with the boundary layer over the surface at high Mach flows. The adverse pressure gradient across strong shock wave causes the flow to separate and peak loads are generated at separation and reattachment points. The size of separation bubble in the shock boundary layer interaction flows depends on various parameters. Reynolds-averaged...

An E-CUSP (energy-convective upwind and split pressure) scheme is developed to solve the equations of magnetohydrodynamics. Fifth order WENO reconstructions are employed to calculate the fluxes in order to achieve high order spacial accuracy. A characteristic speed of sound by averaging the fast wave speed and the acoustic speed of sound is suggested to evaluate the Mach number, which will yiel...

Fas/APO-1 and p55 tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor (p55-R) activate cellular mechanisms that result in cell death. Upon activation of these receptors, Fas/APO-1 binds a protein called MORT1 (or FADD) and p55-R binds a protein called TRADD. MORT1 and TRADD can also bind to each other. We have cloned a novel protein, MACH, that binds to MORT1. This protein exists in multiple isoforms, some of...

This paper addresses the aerodynamic performance of Busemann-type supersonic biplanes at both design and offdesign conditions. An adjoint-based optimization technique is used to optimize the aerodynamic shape of the biplane to reduce the wave drag at a series of Mach numbers ranging from 1.1 to 1.7, at both acceleration and deceleration conditions. The optimized biplane airfoils dramatically re...

In an interactive multimedia environment that handles multiple sessions dynamically, a mechanism to control QOS among sessions is very important. As such a mechanism, the QOS-Control Server has been developed on RT-Mach. This paper gives the results of several experiments with this server, and describes the extensions of RT-Mach.

The Mach external pager interface allows applications to supply their own routines for moving pages to and from second-level store. Mach doesn’t allow applications to choose their own page replacement policy, however. Some applications have access patterns that may make least recently used page replacement inappropriate. In this paper, we describe an extension to the external pager interface th...

A single asparagine-to-tyrosine point mutation in the human M muscarinic acetylcholine (mACh) receptor at residue 514 (N514Y) resulted in a marked increase (approximately 300%) in agonist-independent [3H]inositol phosphate ([3H]IPx) accumulation compared with the response observed for the wild-type (WT) receptor. All the antagonists tested were able to inhibit both the WT-M3 and (N514Y)M3 mACh ...
