Emerging trends in commodity network technology coupled with key insights from academic research in active memory systems are leading toward the realization of hardware DSM on commodity clusters. We call the result of this convergence active memory clusters. After discussing the current state of the art in hardware DSM, clusters, and software DSM architectures, we highlight the key di erences b...

Although it is still unclear what causes autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), over time researchers and clinicians have become more precise with detecting and diagnosing ASD. Many diagnoses, however, are based on the criteria established within the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM); thus, any change in these diagnostic criteria can have a great effect upon children with A...

Consider an operator equation (*) B(u) + u = 0 in a real Hilbert space, where > 0 is a small constant. The DSM (Dynamical Systems Method) for solving equation (*) consists of finding and solving a Cauchy problem: u̇ = Φ(t, u), u(0) = u0, t ≥ 0, which has the following properties: 1) it has a global solution u(t), 2) this solution tends to a limit as time tends to infinity, i.e., u(∞) exists, 3) ...

Several revisions to the symptom clusters of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have been made in the 5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Central to the focus of this study was the revision of PTSD's tripartite structure in DSM-IV into four symptom clusters in DSM-5. Emerging confirmatory factor analytic (CFA) studies have suggested that DSM-5 PTS...

This work proposes a method for the evaluation of the effectiveness of adopting dynamic spectral management (DSM) algorithms in different DSL scenarios. In the last years several DSM algorithms emerged in the literature but their comparison has been typically conducted within few scenarios and considering specific operating points. This work proposes the adoption of the DSM effectiveness factor...

Parajuli SP, Petkov GV. Activation of muscarinic M3 receptors inhibits large-conductance voltageand Ca -activated K channels in rat urinary bladder smooth muscle cells. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 305: C207–C214, 2013. First published May 22, 2013; doi:10.1152/ajpcell.00113.2013.—Large conductance voltageand Ca -activated K (BK) channels are key regulators of detrusor smooth muscle (DSM) contract...

Large conductance voltage- and Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (BK) channels are key regulators of detrusor smooth muscle (DSM) contraction and relaxation during urine voiding and storage. Here, we explored whether BK channels are regulated by muscarinic receptors (M-Rs) in native freshly isolated rat DSM cells under physiological conditions using the perforated whole cell patch-clamp technique and pharm...

Recent studies on the occurrence of (per)chlorate-reducing bacteria have resulted in the characterization of strains capable of dissimilatory (per)chlorate reduction. Phylogenetic analysis has shown that these bacteria are members of the Proteobacteria. Strains have been isolated from polluted and pristine sites, but only strains from polluted sites have been characterized in detail and deposit...
