Dedicated rapid access palliative radiation therapy improves patients' access to care, allowing more timely treatment which would positively impact on quality of life. The TomoTherapy (Accuray, Sunnyvale, CA) system provides megavoltage (MV) fan-beam computed tomography (FBCT) as the image guidance technique, and a module called "statRT" that allows the use of these MV FBCT images for direct pl...

Protein disulfide isomerases are overwhelmingly multi-modular redox catalysts able to perform the formation, reduction or isomerisation of disulfide bonds. We present here the biochemical characterization of three different poplar PDI isoforms. PDI-A is characterized by a single catalytic Trx module, the so-called a domain, whereas PDI-L1a and PDI-M display an a-b-b'-a' and a°-a-b organisation ...

This paper presents a VLSI architecture design of unified motion vector (MV) and boundary strength (BS) parameter decoder (PDec) for 8K UHDTV HEVC decoder. PDec in HEVC is deemed as a highly algorithm-irregular module, which is also challenged by high throughput requirement for UHDTV. To solve these problems, four schemes are proposed. Firstly, the work unifies MV and BS parameter decoders to s...

let $r$ be a right artinian ring or a perfect commutative‎‎ring‎. ‎let $m$ be a noncosingular self-generator $sum$-lifting‎‎module‎. ‎then $m$ has a direct decomposition $m=oplus_{iin i} m_i$‎,‎where each $m_i$ is noetherian quasi-projective and each‎‎endomorphism ring $end(m_i)$ is local‎.
