Phase change memory (PCM) is a byte-addressable type of non-volatile memory. Compared to other volatile and non-volatile memories, PCM is two to four times denser than dynamic random access memory (DRAM). It has better read latency than NAND flash memory. Even though the write endurance of PCM is 10 times better than NAND flash memory, it is still limited to times per PCM cell. When researchers...

The aim of this study was to explore the incidence and risk factors for posterior cage migration (PCM) following decompression and instrumented fusion for degenerative lumbar disorders, and hope to provide references in decision making and surgical planning for spine surgeons.By retrieving the medical records from January 2011 to December 2015, 286 patients were retrospectively reviewed. Accord...

Protein carboxy-O-methyltransferase (PCM) activity was determined in subcellular fractions prepared from C-1300 neuroblastoma tumors following transplantation and growth in male A/J mice. Fractions were obtained by differential centrifugation, and PCM activity was determined in all fractions in the presence (+gel) and absence (-gel) of an exogenous substrate, gelatin. Sixty % of the PCM activit...

BACKGROUND Paracetamol is recommended as first line agent for pain management in osteoarthritis (OA) by various guidelines. The main problem associated with management of osteoarthritis is long term patient compliance to paracetamol due to its frequent dosing. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Paracetamol 650 mg dual release tablet twice daily (PCM 650 dual release) compared to...

conclusions pcm has not been reported in iran until now, but it should be considered as a differential diagnosis when risk factors or symptoms of pcm are detected. case presentation a 72-year-old man had a four-year history of dyspnea, dry cough, and weakness and a recent weight loss of more than 10 kg. first, he was treated with glucocorticoid, but he did not continue this treatment. core need...

many researchers have investigated how to increase the overall efficiency of solar-driven thermal systems. several key parameters, such as collector efficiency and storage tank characteristics, may impose some constraints on the annual solar fraction (asf) of such systems. in this paper, the behaviour of integrating the phase change material (pcm) in sdhw systems is modelled and optimized numer...

In the present paper, an experimental assessment was performed on the transient thermal performance of a heat sink filled by a phase change material (PCM) and PCM embedded with carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and titania (TiO2) nanoparticles as nanostructured materials. In order to enhance the thermal conductivity of PCM, CNFs and TiO2 nanoparticles at different loadings (0.5wt. % and 2 wt.% of CNFs a...

Gypsum has two important states (fresh and hardened states), and the addition of phase change materials (PCM) can vary the properties of the material. Many authors have extensively studied properties in the hardened state; however, the variation of fresh state properties due to the addition of Micronal® DS 5001 X PCM into gypsum has been the object of few investigations. Properties in fresh sta...
