Suppression of thermoelectric Thomson effect in silicon microwires under large electrical bias and implications for phase-change memory devices
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2014)
We have observed how thermoelectric effects that result in asymmetric melting of silicon wires are suppressed for increasing electric current density (J). The experimental results are investigated using numerical modeling ...
Application-specific heterogeneous network-on-chip design
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
As a result of increasing communication demands, application-specific and scalable Network-on-Chips (NoCs) have emerged to connect processing cores and subsystems in Multiprocessor System-on-Chips. A challenge in ...
Distinct regulation of tonsillar immune response in virus infection
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2014)
Background: The relationships between tonsillar immune responses, and viral infection and allergy are incompletely known. Objective To study intratonsillar/nasopharyngeal virus detections and in vivo expressions of T-cell- ...
Generic windowing support for extensible stream processing systems
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2014)
Stream processing applications process high volume, continuous feeds from live data sources, employ data-in-motion analytics to analyze these feeds, and produce near real-time insights with low latency. One of the fundamental ...
Real-time virtual fitting with body measurement and motion smoothing
(Pergamon Press, 2014)
We present a novel virtual fitting room framework using a depth sensor, which provides a realistic fitting experience with customized motion filters, size adjustments and physical simulation. The proposed scaling method ...
MaterialVis: material visualization tool using direct volume and surface rendering techniques
(Elsevier Inc., 2014)
Visualization of the materials is an indispensable part of their structural analysis. We developed a visualization tool for amorphous as well as crystalline structures, called MaterialVis. Unlike the existing tools, ...
Genome sequencing highlights the dynamic early history of dogs
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
To identify genetic changes underlying dog domestication and reconstruct their early evolutionary history, we generated high-quality genome sequences from three gray wolves, one from each of the three putative centers of ...
Elastic scaling for data stream processing
(IEEE Computer Society, 2014)
This article addresses the profitability problem associated with auto-parallelization of general-purpose distributed data stream processing applications. Auto-parallelization involves locating regions in the application's ...
A color and shape based algorithm for segmentation of white blood cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow images
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2014)
Computer-based imaging systems are becoming important tools for quantitative assessment of peripheral blood and bone marrow samples to help experts diagnose blood disorders such as acute leukemia. These systems generally ...
Moral mechanisms
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)
As highly intelligent autonomous robots are gradually introduced into the home and workplace, ensuring public safety becomes extremely important. Given that such machines will learn from interactions with their environment, ...
