In this paper we present WARPLab, a framework which allows rapid prototyping of algorithms for wireless communications by combining the ease of MATLAB with the capabilities of the Wireless Open-Acces Research Platform (WARP). The WARPLab framework provides the software necessary for easy interaction with the WARP hardware directly from the MATLAB workspace. WARPLab is unique in its capabilities...

In this paper, we describe spoken document retrieval (SDR) systems in Ryukoku University, which were participated in NTCIR-11 “SpokenQuery&Doc” task. In NTCIR-11 SpokenQuery&Doc task, there are subtasks: “spoken content retrieval (SCR) subtask” and “spoken term detection (STD) subtask”. We participated in the SCR and STD subtasks as team RYSDT. In this paper, our SDR and STD systems are described.

Hirosaki hairless rat (HHR) is a mutant strain spontaneously derived from Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR), and its inheritance is autosomal recessive. In addition to hair loss, female HHRs show involution of the mammary gland at an early stage of lactation. In the present study we investigated the mammary gland development in HHR. Morphological examinations revealed that HHR mammary glands are underd...

Subset Difference Revocation (SDR) [7] has been proposed to perform group rekeying in a stateless manner. However, statelessness comes at a cost in terms of key storage and messaging overhead when the number of currently active members is much smaller than the number of potential group members [3]. In this paper, we propose a dynamic SDR scheme to address these two problems. Briefly, rather tha...

Sample cleanup is a major processing step in many analytical assays. Here, we propose an approach to capture-and-release of analytes based on the DNA strand displacement reaction (SDR) and demonstrate its application to a fluoroimmunoassay on beads for a thyroid cancer biomarker, thyroglobulin. The SDR-based cleanup showed no interference from matrix molecules in serum.

Although it has long been believed that glial cells play a major role in transmitter uptake at synapses in the CNS, the relative contribution of glial and neuronal cells to reuptake of synaptically released glutamate has been unclear. Recent identification of the diverse glutamate transporter subtypes provides an opportunity to examine this issue. To monitor glutamate transporter activity, we o...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the long-term development of the post-cure degree of conversion (DC) for two flowable bulk-fill composites. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill (TEFBF) and SDR were chosen due to their distinct compositional modifications that enable the decrease of translucency during polymerization and lower polymerization rate, respectively. DC was assessed using FT-Ram...
