Despite traditional evidence that lexically-stressed content words are the most common loci of disfluencies in stuttered speech (Natke, et al., 2002; Prins, et al., 1991; Brown 1938), the fact that certain function words—crucially, those directly preceding stressed content words—are also disfluently produced (Au-Yeung, et al., 1998; Howell & Sackin, 2000), suggests that the actual trigger of a ...

A de novo approach for the rapid construction of orthogonally protected l- and d-deoxysugars and analogues is described. A novel and robust silicon-acetal undergoes Prins cyclisations with a series of homoallylic alcohols in high yield and excellent stereocontrol. Modified Tamao-Fleming oxidation of the resulting silyltetrahydropyrans gives direct access to deoxyglycoside analogues and the appr...

Cuvinte cheie. Managementul cozilor de aşteptare, filtru median, probabilitate de rejectare, întârziere. Rezumat. Articolul evaluază performanţele unui algoritm RED (random early detection) modificat care utilizează un filtru median în locul unui filtru liniar pentru calculul probabilităţii de rejectare a pachetelor. Simulările ilustrează faptul că performanţa reţelei creşte prin utilizarea fil...

Lancolide E (1) featuring a complex tetracyclo[5.4.0.0(2,4).0(3,7)]undecane-bridged system that is constructed by an eight-, a three-, and two five-membered carbon rings in a sterically congested region was obtained in trace amounts from a "talented" schinortriterpenoid producer Schisandra lancifolia. Its structure was fully characterized by combining 2D NMR spectroscopy, theoretical calculatio...

In work with faculty Wei Wang, Jans Prins, Alex Tropsha, and Jack Snoeyink, they tested different graph representations of protein structures, including Delaunay tessellation graphs, contact maps, and chose almost-Delaunay graphs as being robust in the presence of coordinate perturbations. They developed a fast method to generate maximal frequent subgraphs directly using a tree representation, ...

This work is part of the larger research conducted in the scientific and disciplinary Research Unit, named Design for Cultural Heritage (DeCH), now Design & Culture, in the Design Department of Politecnico di Milano. It has been conducted in continuity with the research project PRIN 2010/12 “The design of cultural heritage through history, memory and knowledge: the immaterial, the virtual, the ...

in a real separable Hilbert space H driven by an infinite dimensional cylindrical symmetric Lévy process Z = (Zt). The process Z may take values in a Hilbert space 1 Supported by the M.I.U.R. research projects Prin 2004 and 2006 “Kolmogorov equations” and by the Polish Ministry of Science and Education project 1PO 3A 034 29 “Stochastic evolution equations with Lévy noise”. 2 Supported by the Po...

Let (M, g) be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold without boundary of dimension n ≥ 6. We prove that ‖u‖ L2 ∗ (M,g) ≤ K 2 ∫ M { |∇gu| 2 + c(n)Rgu 2 } dvg + A‖u‖ 2 L2n/(n+2)(M,g), for all u ∈ H(M), where 2 = 2n/(n − 2), c(n) = (n − 2)/[4(n − 1)], Rg is the scalar curvature, K −1 = inf ‖∇u‖L2(Rn)‖u‖ −1 L2n/(n−2)(Rn) and A > 0 is a constant depending on (M, g) only. The inequality is sharp in the...
