Experts agree that pregnancy and postpartum are valuable periods during which to undertake proactive and preventative health care of modifiable risk factors through physical activity. In this chapter, we review the physiologic rationale for exercise during GDM and for GDM prevention, studies addressing these topics, and current recommendations for physical activity regarding GDM. We also suggest modifications...
The purpose of this study was to estimate the impact of interpregnancy weight change from first to second pregnancies in obese women on the risk of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) and small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants. A population-based historical cohort analysis of 10,444 obese women in Missouri who delivered their first 2 singleton live infants from 1998-2005. Interpregnancy weight change...
Subsequent to the cyrogenic optical testing of the 3.5 m silicon carbide ESA Herschel Space Telescope, a discrepancy between the prediction and measurement of the telescope back focal length was identified. Efforts to resolve this discrepancy involved both improvements to modeling and more thorough examination of the optical test techniques. The most significant input to modeling was the use of extremely...
The relative decline of single-threaded processor performance, coupled with the ongoing shift towards on chip parallelism requires that CAD applications run efficiently on parallel microprocessors. We believe that an ad hoc approach to parallelizing CAD applications will not lead to satisfactory results: neither in terms of return on engineering investment nor in terms of the computational efficiency...
The H.264 decoder has a sequential, control intensive front end that makes it difficult to leverage the potential performance of emerging manycore processors. Preparsing is a functional parallelization technique to resolve this front end bottleneck. However, the resulting parallel macro block (MB) rendering tasks have highly input-dependent execution times and precedence constraints, which make them...
