Arsenic is a major environmental pollutant and highly hazardous toxin to human health, which well established as carcinogen and immune deregulatory properties. Dendritic cells (DCs) have a pivotal role in cell-mediated immunity for T-cell activation and antigen presentation.In this study, T cell activation, some key functional genes expression, cell stability and phagocytosis capacity of human monocytes...
The reversed‐phase mode of single drop microextraction has been used as a preparation method for the extraction of some phenolic antioxidants from edible oil samples. Butylated hydroxyl anisole, tert‐butylhydroquinone and butylated hydroxytoluene were employed as target compounds for this study. High‐performance liquid chromatography followed by fluorescence detection was applied for final determination...
Cloud centric environments fueled by Ethernet dominant networking increasingly use iSCSI as a prevalent storage networking protocol among highly distributed and interconnected servers and storage devices. Numerous advances such as faster multi-core CPUs, hardware offloading engines, higher bandwidth networking and faster storage devices mandate a re-evaluation of iSCSI implementations and performance...
This paper presents a light-weight hybrid protocol called Bin-MAC (Binary Medium Access Control) for highly resource-constrained wireless sensor nodes. In addition to simplicity and low footprint, a distinguishing feature of Bin-MAC is its deterministic contention resolution mechanism, which enables it to achieve bounded latency on data transmissions. As a result, Bin-MAC can be applied to delay-sensitive...
To maximize the communication throughput for wireless sensing systems, designers have attempted various combinations of protocol design and manual code optimization. Although the theoretical bandwidth limit is easy to determine loosely, there have been no systematic ways to arrive at a tight upper-bound. One contribution of this paper is a formula for deriving a tight upper-bound on the throughput...
RoboSoccer simulation is a complex multi-agent system in which agents play the role of soccer players and the main goal is to have a perfect domain for research and investigation on artificial intelligence. This paper intends to propose a new scoring module to select the best point on the goal line to shoot, considering player's position, catching and shooting time difference, and distance to target...
