Micropropagation of adultLavandula dentataplants
1998
SummaryA protocol for in vitro propagation of adult Lavandula dentata plants has been achieved. Cultures were established by placing nodal segments on Murashige and Skoog medium containing BA, KIN, and NAA. Highest shoot multiplication rates were obtained when explants grown in the presence of 5.0 μM BA or 20 (JLM KIN were transferred to medium with 8.8 μM BA and 15% coconut milk. Multiplication efficiency through subcultures was significantly affected by the cytokinin concentration in the initial culture medium. Subculture reduced drastically the final number of shoots produced on nodal segments isolated from shoots grown in the presence of 2.0 μM BA or 40.0 μM KIN. Shoots were easily root…

Ekstrakcja fosforu z osadów ściekowych i popiołów ze spalania osadów - analiza problemu
2016
Fosfor jako pierwiastek niezbędny do produkcji rolniczej, w miarę wyczerpywania się zasobów fosforytów, staje się komponentem coraz bardziej deficytowym. Koniecznym wydaje się wdrożenie metod taniego i efektywnego odzysku tego pierwiastka z wszelkiego rodzaju odpadów. Szczególnie cennym źródłem fosforu są popioły z osadów ściekowych i same osady. Optymalizacja metod sekwencyjnej ekstrakcji fosforu zawartego w popiele z termicznego przekształcania osadów ściekowych i odwodnionych osadów pozwala na wybór efektywnej i nieskomplikowanej technologicznie możliwości odzysku fosforu, przy jednoczesnym zachowaniu niskiego obciążenia eluatu metalami ciężkimi, które są jedną z głównych przyczyn ograni…
Technologies for cultivation and exploitation of microalgae in industrial applications
2020
This thesis work is focused on technologies for the development of the microalgal industry. During this 3-years PhD work several themes were addressed. Section 1 consists in a literature review concerning the general features of microalgae, their composition and a description of the photosynthetic process. Furthermore, themes such as biosynthetic pathways, growth kinetics, microalgae cultivation and their applications are reviewed. Section 2 focuses on the genetic manipulation of microalgae aimed at producing a vitamin B12-enriched food supplement. In this case, the human intrinsic factor gene, was inserted in the genome of the microalgae Chlamydomonas reinardhtii in order to integrate new …
Incentive Mechanism for Edge-Computing-Based Blockchain
2020
Blockchain has been gradually applied to different Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. As the efficiency of the blockchain mainly depends on the network computing capability, how to make sure the acquisition of the computational resources and participation of the devices would be the driving force. In this work, we focus on investigating incentive mechanism for rational miners to purchase the computational resources. A edge computing-based blockchain network is considered, where the edge service provider (ESP) can provide computational resources for the miners. Accordingly, we formulate a two-stage Stackelberg game between the miners and ESP. The aim is to investigate Stackelberg equilibriu…
Hashtagin kaappaaminen Twitterissä : huumoria, kritiikkiä ja huutelua
2016
Sosiaalinen media tuo organisaatiot ja yleisöt yhteiselle areenalle, jossa organisaatioiden on keksittävä uusia tapoja saadakseen yleisöjen huomion sekä pitääkseen viestinsä pinnalla ja jossa yleisöillä on mahdollisuus kyseenalaistaa organisaatioita. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää tilannetta, jossa yleisö kaappaa organisaation Twitter- kampanjan hashtagin ja kääntää kampanjan organisaatiota vastaan. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään, millainen prosessi hashtagin kaappaaminen on ja millaisia kaappauksia hashtagilla on tutkimalla kahvilaketju Starbucksin maaliskuussa 2015 lanseeraaman racetogether-kampanjan hashtagia. Tutkimusaineistoksi kerättiin tuhat #racetogether-hashtagilla merkitty…
On Unstructured File Sharing Networks
2007
We study the interaction among users of unstructured file sharing applications, who compete for available network resources (link bandwidth or capacity) by opening multiple connections on multiple paths so as to accelerate data transfer. We model this interaction with an unstructured file sharing game. Users are players and their strategies are the numbers of sessions on available paths. We consider a general bandwidth sharing framework proposed by Kelly [1] and Mo and Walrand [2], with TCP as a special case. Furthermore, we incorporate the Tit-for-Tat strategy (adopted by BitTorrent [3] networks) into the unstructured file sharing game to model the competition in which a connection can be …
On stiffness and damping of vibro-impact dynamics of backlash
2021
We consider the instantaneous stiffness and damping of the vibro-impact in a backlash pair. Opposed to the existing and mostly used models of the backlash, we address the problem of contact and separation, and the associated force propagation within a mechanical pair, from a viewpoint of the vibro-impact dynamics. We discuss the impact forces with the coefficient of restitution as a principal factor which shapes the transient backlash response.We show that a common approach to modeling the backlash by means of a dead-zone in a restoring force is unsuitable for correctly capturing the mechanical impact. We exemplary demonstrate a qualitative accord between an experimental backlash response a…
Locality-sensitive hashing enables signal classification in high-throughput mass spectrometry raw data at scale
2021
Mass spectrometry is an important experimental technique in the field of proteomics. However, analysis of certain mass spectrometry data faces a combination of two challenges: First, even a single experiment produces a large amount of multi-dimensional raw data and, second, signals of interest are not single peaks but patterns of peaks that span along the different dimensions. The rapidly growing amount of mass spectrometry data increases the demand for scalable solutions. Existing approaches for signal detection are usually not well suited for processing large amounts of data in parallel or rely on strong assumptions concerning the signals properties. In this study, it is shown that locali…
FALCON - joint fair airtime allocation and rate control for DASH video streaming in software defined wireless networks
2020
Software Defined Wireless Networks offer an opportunity to enhance the performance of specific services by applying centralized mechanisms which make use of a global view of the network resources. This paper presents FALCON, a novel solution that jointly optimizes fair airtime allocation and rate recommendations for Server and Network Assisted DASH video streaming, providing proportional fairness among the clients. Since this problem is NP-hard, FALCON introduces a novel heuristic algorithm that is proved to achieve almost optimal results in a practical amount of time. The performance of FALCON is evaluated when used in conjunction with three referent Adaptive Bit Rate strategies (PANDA, BO…
