Recently, thermal-aware digital circuit design in advanced technologies is great challenges to realize high-speed and robust microprocessors. In this paper, we explore temperature gradient alleviating method for arithmetic units. Aiming at alleviating temperature gradients at logical circuit design level, we try to flatten out a power density by applying delay-balancing technique for equaldelay...

The temperature at which in vitro electrophysiological experiments are performed varies widely between laboratories. Recently it was shown that the production of cytokines within brain slices is dependent upon incubation temperature (Blond et al. 2001). The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1b (IL-1b) exerts a number of neuromodulatory effects in the CNS. Therefore the aim of our study was ...

This study examined to study how respondents rely on the Internet to fulfill the various life goals dimensioned into understanding, orientation and playing goals, and how this dependency relates to the generation of social capital. Further, it examined the resources of social capital in terms of bonding social capita and bridging social capital. In this study quantitative research approach was ...

     The model fluids containing hard ellipses (HEs) and Gay-Berne (GB) particles where their center is moving in one dimension and confined between two parallel walls with different interactions are investigated using Monte Carlo simulation, NVT ensemble. The dependency of fluid pressure with respect to the wall distances is studied. The oscillatory behaviors are seen in this quantity against ...

As the consequence of the exponentially increased power density on integrated circuits, thermal issues are becoming critical in design of computing systems. Moreover, as both leakage and thermal issues have become more prominent in the deep sub-micron domain, a power and thermal aware design technique becomes less effective if the leakage/temperature dependency is not appropriately addressed. I...

The dynamics of the sol/gel phase transition in agarose was analyzed with magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) and diffusion-weighted imaging, providing complementary information on a microstructural as well as on a macroscopic spatial scale. In thermal equilibrium, the diffusion coefficient of agarose is linearly correlated with temperature, independent of the sol/gel phase transition. In lar...
