Zimmer, Zachary | HIV/AIDS and the living arrangements of older persons across the Sub-Saharan African region | ABSTRACT: Older adults in sub-Saharan Africa face harsh living conditions including severe poverty and an HIV/AIDS epidemic that results in unprecedented rates of mortality. Yet, because of a lack of available data and only a trickle of past studies, the impact of these conditions on living circum... | HIV/AIDS; Sub-Saharan Africa; Poverty | 2007-11-08 |

Hibler, Michael J. | Interface and execution models in the fluke kernel | We have defined and implemented a new kernel API that makes every exported operation either fully interruptible and restartable, thereby appearing atomic to the user. To achieve interruptibility, all possible states in which a thread may become blocked for a "long" time are completely representable ... | Fluke kernel; Interruptibility | 1998 |

Beckerle, Mary C.; Hoffman, Laura M. | Supervillin modulation of focal adhesions involving TRIP6/ZRP-1 | Cell-substrate contacts, called focal adhesions (FAs), are dynamic in rapidly moving cells. We show that supervillin (SV)-a peripheral membrane protein that binds myosin II and F-actin in such cells-negatively regulates stress fibers, FAs, and cell-substrate adhesion. The major FA regulatory sequenc... | Supervillin; Focal adhesions; Zyxin; LIM domains; TRIP6 | 2006 |

Ehleringer, James R. | Tracing changes in ecosystem function under elevated carbon dioxide conditions | Responses of ecosystems to elevated levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) remain a critical uncertainty in global change research. Two key unknown factors are the fate of carbon newly incorporated by photosynthesis into various pools within the ecosystem and the extent to which elevated CO2 is... | Elevated carbon dioxide; Stable isotopes; Radiocarbon; Global change; Terrestrial ecosystems | 2003 |

Carter, John B. | Using khazana to support distributed application development | One of the most important services required by most distributed applications is some form of shared data management, e.g., a directory service manages shared directory entries while groupware manages shared documents. Each such application currently must implement its own data management mechanisms,... | Khazana; Distributed applications; Development | 1999 |

Jorgensen, Erik | μ2 adaptin facilitates but is not essential for synaptic vesicle recycling in Caenorhabditis elegans | Synaptic vesicles must be recycled to sustain neurotransmission, in large part via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Clathrin is recruited to endocytic sites on the plasma membrane by the AP2 adaptor complex. The medium subunit (u 2) of AP2 binds to cargo proteins and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisph... | Synaptic vesicles; Caenorhabditis elegans; Adaptin | 2008 |

Jorgensen, Erik | Axon regeneration genes identified by RNAi screening in C. elegans | Axons of the mammalian CNS lose the ability to regenerate soon after development due to both an inhibitory CNS environment and the loss of cell-intrinsic factors necessary for regeneration. The complex molecular events required for robust regeneration of mature neurons are not fully understood, part... | 2014-01-01 | |

Flynn, John J. | Function and dysfunction of per se rules in vertical market restraints | In 1963, the Supreme Court held it did not know enough about the "economic and business stuff" out of which nonprice vertical market restraints "emerge" to determine whether they should be measured by a "rule of reason" test or one of "per se illegality.'" Seventeen years later, after one flip2 and ... | 1980 | |

Normann, Richard A.; Kolb, Helga | Neural organization of the retina of the turtle Mauremys caspica: a light microscope and Golgi study | The organization of the retina of the turtle species Mauremys caspica, found in fresh water ponds of Israel, has been examined by light microscopical techniques including examination of fresh wholemount retina, one micron blue-stained vertical sections and Golgi-stained material. The anatomical find... | Turtle Retina; Photoreceptors; Golgi Technique; Amarcine Cells | 1988 |

Kasera, Sneha K. | On fast and accurate detection of unauthorized wireless access points using clock skews | We explore the use of clock skew of a wireless local area network access point (AP) as its fingerprint to detect unauthorized APs quickly and accurately. The main goal behind using clock skews is to overcome one of the major limitations of existing solutions-the inability to effectively detect Mediu... | Clock skews; Unauthorized access; Medium access control; MAC; Address spoofing; Wireless networks; Time Synchronization Function; TSF | 2010-03 |

Bruderlin, Beat | Robustness in geometric modeling - an intuitionistic and tolerance-based approach | An intuitionistic geometry approach is taken to develop two tolerance-based methods for robust geometric computation. The so called analytic model method and the approximated model method are developed independently of a specific application or a geometric algorithm. Geometric robustness is formally... | Robustness; Geometric modeling; Intuitionistic geometry; Geometric robustness | 1992 |

Mitchell, Joyce A. | Nanoinformatics: a new area of research in nanomedicine | Abstract: Over a decade ago, nanotechnologists began research on applications of nanomaterials for medicine. This research has revealed a wide range of different challenges, as well as many opportunities. Some of these challenges are strongly related to informatics issues, dealing, for instance, wit... | 2012-01-01 | |

Peay, Wayne J. | National network of libraries of medicine RFP, region 4, technical proposal | The mission of the Region 4 RML is quite simply to realize the promise of the NN/LM. The model that is being proposed for Region 4 reflects the power of the distributed, networked computing environment where the power of the technology resides in the hands of the end-user. The resources and services... | RFP; NN/LM; RML; National Network of Libraries of Medicine; Regional Medical Libraries | 2005-07 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | No way out? the double-bind in seeking global prosperity alongside mitigated climate change | In a prior study (Garrett, 2011), I introduced a simple economic growth model designed to be consistent with general thermodynamic laws. Unlike traditional economic models, civilization is viewed only as a well-mixed global whole with no distinction made between individual nations, economic sectors,... | 2012-01-01 | |

Ehleringer, James R.; Negus, Norman C. | Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area: history, flora, geology, climate, and ecology | Red Butte Canyon is a protected, near pristine canyon entering Salt Lake Valley, Utah. It contains a well-developed riparian zone and a perennial stream; hillside vegetation ranges from grasslands on the lower limits to Douglas-fir and aspen stands at the upper elevations. In this paper we describe ... | Intermountain West; Grassland; Oak-maple; Plant adaptation; Red Butte Canyon Research Natural Area; Human impact | 1992 |

Crow, Franklin C. | The aliasing problem in computer-synthesized shaded images | This paper describes work toward improving the quality of computer-synthesized shaded images. Current (practical) hidden-surface algorithms produce an image whose precision is strictly limited by the number of picture elements. Problems caused by this limitation are described and explained in the t... | aliasing problem; shaded images; hidden-surface algorithms | 1976 |
