From spring 2016, I've been working with Prof. Stan Zdonik in a project about data migration from S-Store to BigDAWG polystore system. S-Store, which built on top of H-Store, is the world's first transactional streaming database system. S-Store maintains all the transactional support in a traditional relational database, while it supports streaming processing which is needed in the real-time ap...

Diel vertical migration is a widespread behaviour amongst zooplankton, yet its effect on the rate at which individuals respire remains poorly understood. To address this, we investigated of short-term temperature change respiration Euphausia triacantha , common component Southern Ocean zooplankton and prominent migrator. We found to vary in response size, with value 0.84 for scaling coefficient...

Gregarines are thought to be deep-branching apicomplexans. Accordingly, a robust inference of gregarine phylogeny is crucial to any interpretation of apicomplexan evolution, but molecular sequences from gregarines are restricted to a small number of small-subunit (SSU) rDNA sequences from derived taxa. This work examines the usefulness of SSU rDNA and b-tubulin sequences for inferring gregarine...

Engineering of complex distributed real-time applications is one of the hardest tasks faced by the software profession today. All aspects of the process, from design to implementation, are made more di cult by the interaction of behavioral and platform constraints. Providing tools for this task is likewise not without major challenges. In this paper, we discuss a tool suite at New Jersey Instit...

Modeling languages and thus their metamodels are subject to evolution [2]. When a metamodel is adapted, existing models may no longer conform to the adapted metamodel and thus need to be migrated. Model migration is a special case of exogenous model transformation [7], since original and adapted metamodel are usually different from each other. However, the metamodel versions also share some sim...

Kirchhoo migration operator is a highly oscillatory integral operator. In our primary work 1] (Wu and Yang, 1997), it has been shown that the matrix representation of Kirchhoo migration operator for homogeneous background in space-frequency domain is a dense matrix, while the compressed operator in beamlet-frequency domain, which is the wavelet decomposition of the Kirchhoo migration operator, ...

An important assumption in observational studies is that sampled individuals are representative of some larger study population. Yet, this assumption is often unrealistic. Notable examples include online public-opinion polls, publication biases associated with statistically significant results, and in ecology, telemetry studies with significant habitat-induced probabilities of missed locations....

• Highest abundances of Cyclothone spp. were observed between 400–600 m and 1000–1500 depth, both during day night. Smaller species found in the mesopelagic zone than bathypelagic zone. Oxygen consumption rates decreased with temperature body mass. Biomass community respiration positively associated to productivity highest values eutrophic temperate stations. Carbon remineralisation by non-migr...
