In [9], GSCM mode of operation for authenticated encryption was presented. GSCM is based on the Galois/Counter Mode (GCM). GSCM is an enhancement of GCM, which is characterized by its high throughput and low memory consumption in network applications. In this paper, we propose some enhancements to GSCM and compare it with the different implementations of GCM. We present stability, performance, ...

This document contains the benchmarking and unit test results for the message passing God dard Earth Observing System General Circulation Model MP GEOS GCM The MP GEOS GCM is an atmospheric model which operates on uniform and stretched latitude longitude grids and is closely related to the shared memory parallel GEOS GCM which is currently in production at the Data Assimilation O ce The unit te...

The transcription factors Glial cells missing (Gcm) and Gcm2 are known to play a crucial role in promoting glial-cell differentiation during Drosophila embryogenesis. Our findings reveal a central function for gcm genes in regulating neuronal development in the postembryonic visual system. We demonstrate that Gcm and Gcm2 are expressed in both glial and neuronal precursors within the optic lobe...

We propose the rarefied-gas-cushion model (r-GCM), as an extended version of the gas-cushion model (GCM), to estimate the apparent slip of water flowing over a gas layer trapped at a solid surface. Nanobubbles or gas nanofilms may manifest rarefied-gas effects and the r-GCM incorporates kinetic boundary conditions for the gas component in the slip Knudsen regime. These enable an apparent hydrod...

Glial cells differentiate from the neuroepithelium. In flies, gliogenesis depends on the expression of glial cell deficient/glial cell missing (glide/gcm). The phenotype of glide/gcm loss- and gain-of-function mutations suggested that gliogenesis occurs in cells that, by default, would differentiate into neurons. Here we show that glide/gcm is able to induce cells even from a distinct germ laye...

Glycycoumarin (GCM) is a major bioactive coumarin compound isolated from licorice and the anti-cancer activity of GCM has not been scientifically addressed. In the present study, we have tested the anti-liver cancer activity of GCM using both in vitro and in vivo models and found for the first time that GCM possesses a potent activity against liver cancer evidenced by cell growth inhibition and...

Authenticated encryption schemes guarantee both privacy and integrity, and have become the default level of encryption in modern protocols. One of the most popular authenticated encryption schemes today is AES-GCM due to its impressive speed. The current CAESAR competition is considering new modes for authenticated encryption that will improve on existing methods. One property of importance tha...

Glial cell deficient/Glial cells missing (Glide/Gcm) transcription factor is expressed in all glial precursors of the Drosophila embryo. Gcm is necessary and sufficient to induce glial differentiation but also plays a role in other cell types, by interacting with specific factors. To find potential partners of Gcm which trigger these other pathways, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen and id...

Idiopathic giant cell myocarditis (GCM) is a rare but serious heart muscle disease whose pathogenesis is insufficiently known but commonly attributed to T cell–mediated autoimmunity. The early international registry studies of the 1990s characterized GCM as a disease that mainly involves young and middle-aged individuals and is deadly to the extent that 50% of the diseased either die or undergo...

Naïve observers typically perceive some groupings for a set of stimuli as more intuitive than others. The problem of predicting category intuitiveness has been historically considered the remit of models of unsupervised categorization. In contrast, this article develops a measure of category intuitiveness from one of the most widely supported models of supervised categorization, the generalized...
