This note is an expansion on the proposal [2] to add template aliases to C++. It further discusses the fundamental issue, the solution suggested in [2] and several possible directions of generalizations to non-template and non-type settings. This does not constitute a final wording for inclusion in the working paper; rather it is a collection of ideas as a basis for further discussions. This pa...

Step and flash imprint lithography (SFIL) is an attractive method for printing sub-100 nm geometries. Relative to other imprinting processes, SFIL has the advantage that the template is transparent, thereby facilitating conventional overlay techniques. The purpose of this work is to investigate alternative processes for defining features on an SFIL template. The first method considered using a ...

AIM To determine the change in information relayed from histopathologists to clinicians by using templates for reporting specimens of uterine cervix sampled by loop excision of the transformation zone (LETZ). METHODS Minimum datasets for the information required from LETZ specimens received from the colposcopy clinic, Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh, were incorporated into templates on the clinica...

MOTIVATION The challenge of template-based modeling lies in the recognition of correct templates and generation of accurate sequence-template alignments. Homologous information has proved to be very powerful in detecting remote homologs, as demonstrated by the state-of-the-art profile-based method HHpred. However, HHpred does not fare well when proteins under consideration are low-homology. A p...

bone like hydroxyapatite (nhap) was synthesized via an in situ biomimetic process in presence of wheat starch. the effect of polymer concentration alteration on the final structure of nhap was investigated. formation of the nhap at room temperature was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir). size and morphology of the nhap samples were character...

the in-situ method of synthesis has been used to isolate oxovanadium(iv) complexes with ligands derived by reaction of benzil with amino acids such as glycine, alanine, serine, cysteine and valine, where template effect of vo +2 cation appears to play an important role. the complexes are characterised by elemental analysis, magnetic moment measurements and spectral (infrared, electronic and ele...

cr2o3 nanoparticles were prepared using cr(no3)3.9h2o as starting material, triethanolamine (tea) as template and water as green solvent under microwave irradiation. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microscopy (tem), fourier transform infrared (ft-ir), photoluminescence (pl) and raman spectroscopy. the size distribution of individual particles we...

in this work, the synthesis of porous structure of cadmium oxide with multilayered sheet-like morphology in nano-meter size using adipic acid as soft template by solvothermal/thermal decomposition process is reported. chemical analyses exhibited that the formation of porous sheet-like structure is originated from bidentate coordination mode of adipate units to cd-center. it was found that the c...
