Toxoplasma gondii is an opportunistic parasite with avirulent cystogenic and highly virulent non-cystogenic isolates. Although non-cystogenic strains are considered the most virulent, there are also marked genetic and virulence differences among these strains. Excretory-secretory antigens (ESAs) of T. gondii are critical for the invasion process and the immune response of the host. To better un...

2 Schedule (tentative) 2.1 Tuesday morning Brief introductions (1 min / person; you can prepare one slide, but free form is fine) Presentations I • Hinrich Schütze (introduction to working group, basically this document, 15+5) • Jay McClelland (45+15) • Maja Rudolph: Probabilistic modeling perspective (15+5) (Rudolph et al., 2016) • Rami Al-Rfou (and Marc Pickett?): Application perspective (15+...

Many applications have stimulated the recent surge of interest single-chip parallel processing. In such machines, it is crucial to implement a high-throughput low-latency interconnection network to connect the on-chip components, especially the processing units and the memory units. In this paper, we propose a new mesh of trees (MoT) implementation of the interconnection network and evaluate it...

in this work, the pc-saft equation of state (eos) has been used to model the solubility of acid gases (co2 and h2s) in two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ils) ([c8-mim][pf6] and [c8-mim][tf2n]). parameters of pure ils were estimated using experimental densities. two strategies were considered to model densities of pure ils. in strategy 1, ils were modeled as nonassociating compounds and in st...
