Objectives To compare diffusion tensor (DT)-derived indices from the thalamic nuclei and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) hydrodynamic parameters for the prediction of gait responsiveness to the CSF tap test in early iNPH patients. Methods In this study, 22 patients with iNPH and 16 normal controls were enrolled with the approval of an institutional review board. DT imaging and phase-contrast magnetic...
End-to-end delay is one of the most important timing constraints in distributed real-time systems (DRTS) [1], especially in the area of wireless sensor network (WSN) or Internet of Things (IoT). Since we may need to collect data from sensor nodes and react immediately. Thus, tasks must be executed in a distance-constrained manner. That is, the temporal distance between any two consecutive executions...
The continuous growth of energy consumption has become a critical issue globally. According to the international energy agency, the energy consumed in residential and commercial buildings contributed about 40% of the total energy consumption in 2014. In recent years, building energy management has become a popular research topic. The techniques used in automatic control have evolved from static schedules...
An advanced method to prepare ultra-thin (<30 Å) anodic oxides is proposed. The voltage polarity applied to the silicon wafer is switched between a positive and a negative value periodically during anodic oxidation. It is belived that the more effective negative charges causing a barrier height for electron tunneling are generated in the oxide when a negative bias is applied to the wafer. In addition,...
