This paper presents a new data representation known as Dual FiXedpoint (DFX), which employs a single bit exponent to select two different fixedpoint scalings. DFX provides a compromise between conventional fixed-point and floating-point representations. It has the implementation complexity similar to that of a fixed-point system together with the improved dynamic range offered by a floating-poi...

A comparison study is made of the classical theories of the determination of the ion density Ni from the ion current Ii to a cylindrical Langmuir probe vs bias voltage Vb in weakly ionized RF plasmas. A broad parameter range is examined in a commercial inductively coupled plasma (ICP). Accurate local electron density Ne values (Ne,MWI) obtained from Abel inversion of chord-averaged microwave in...

Human thyroid epithelial cells were isolated from surgically resected human thyroid gland with collagenase and cultured for one week under EGF-supplemented conditions to allow them to proliferate. Then the cells were transferred to the following three-dimensional culture systems. One was a culture of isolated cells between floating double layers of collagen gel, designated the "floating sandwic...

The respiratory organs and the maxillofacial apparatus are quite closely related to each other. Reducing size of upper tract is a factor that contributes development formation bite pathology even dysfunction temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In recent years, there has been an increase in prevalence anomalies among children. aim study Is determine compare position TMJ heads anatomical dimensions (a...

We describe a class of measures on second-order cones as a push-forward of the Cartesian product of a probabilistic measure on positive semi-line corresponding to Gamma distribution and the uniform measure on the sphere.

In development of floating photovoltaic generation system, finding a suitable place of installation is as important as development of economically feasible and stable structure. Especially since floating photovoltaic system has its facility floating on water surface, it is extremely important to review the effects of weather conditions such as wind, water flow and floating matters, various fact...
