Feline injection-site sarcomas (FISS) are malignant skin tumours of mesenchymal origin, the treatment of which is a challenge for veterinary surgeons. The role of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy in FISS treatment has been studied, and a correlation between "clean" surgical margins and disease-free survival has been shown. In addition, clean surgical margins are one of the most important ...

We employ two-dimensional (2-D) self-consistent physical modeling of a particularly promising lateral current injection laser reported recently in the literature to gain insight into the physical mechanisms governing the operation of this family of devices. We demonstrate the substantial benefits to be obtained from improved hole injection facilitated by relatively light p-type doping of barrie...

Data mining plays a vital role in today’s information world wherein it has been widely applied in various business organizations. The current trend in business collaboration demands the need to share data or mined results to gain mutual benefit. However it has also raised a potential threat of revealing sensitive information when releasing data. Data sanitization is the process to conceal the s...

More needs to be done to train students to deliver usable software. The current Software Engineering curriculum includes Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) topics in terms of a lecture. This paper presents how an undergraduate Software Engineering curriculum can be enhanced with HCI principles and techniques. The intent is to produce software engineers who value usable software and who can produc...

I A general two-dimensional analytical solution is presented for the / problem of transport current injection from a normal conductor into a I 1 superconductor and collection back into a normal conductor. The current distribution is solved for the general case which takes in the full range from essentially point source to full-width injection and collection. The current distribution also repres...

In the mammalian brain, many thousands of single-neuron recording studies have been performed but less than 10 single-cell stimulation studies. This paucity of single-cell stimulation data reflects a lack of easily applicable single-cell stimulation techniques. We provide a detailed description of the procedures involved in nanostimulation, a single-cell stimulation method derived from the juxt...

A wide band voltage to current converter capable of compensating for parasitic impedances is presented. The circuit is analyzed and the transfer function is calculated and optimized. Output impedance calculation and noise analysis are also given for the best choice of circuit parameters. An application example is proposed and analyzed, full SPICE simulations and a breadboard proof of concept ci...

The Kirchhoff-law-Johnson-noise (KLJN) scheme is a statistical/physical secure key exchange system based on the laws of classical statistical physics to provide unconditional security. We used the LTSPICE industrial cable and circuit simulator to emulate one of the major active (invasive) attacks, the current injection attack, against the ideal and a practical KLJN system, respectively. We show...
