Depletion of polyubiquitin encoded by the UBI4 gene confers pleiotropic phenotype to Candida albicans cells.

2003

We have studied the roles of polyubiquitin in Candida albicans physiology. Heterologous expression of the C. albicans polyubiquitin (UBI4) gene in a ubi4 Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain suppressed the mutant phenotype (hypersensitivity to heat shock). A heterozygous strain UBI4/Deltaubi4::hisG, obtained following the ura-blaster procedure, was used to construct a conditional mutant using a pCaDis derivative plasmid. By serendipity we isolated the UBI4 conditional mutant as well as a UBI4 mutant containing a non-functional MET3 promoter. Depletion of polyubiquitin conferred pleiotropic effects to mutant cells: (i) a limited increased sensitivity to mild heat shock; (ii) increased formation o…

An analytical model of a new packet marking algorithm for TCP flows: Preliminary insights

2004

In differentiated services networks, packet marking schemes can be devised to differentiate packets belonging to a same TCP flow, with the goal of improving the experienced performance. This paper presents an analytical model for an adaptive packet marking scheme proposed in our previous work. The model combines three specific sub-models aimed at describing i) the TCP sources aggregate ii) the marker, and iii) the network status. Some preliminary simulative results seem to validate the model.

Verbal fluency in school-aged Spanish children: analysis of clustering and switching organizational strategies, employing different semantic categori…

2021

La tarea de fluidez verbal (FV) es una medida de la flexibilidad cognitiva y la estrategia de búsqueda dentro del léxico y el tema semántico. En este trabajo, se probó el uso de estrategias organizativas, es decir, agrupación y cambio en la fluidez semántica y fonológica en niños españoles sanos divididos en dos grupos: el grupo 1 de niños más pequeños (de 8 a 9 años) y el grupo 2 de niños mayores (de 10 años de edad) –11) introducción de diferentes letras (F, A, S y P, M, R) y categorías semánticas (animales y comidas o bebidas). La fluidez semántica fue mayor que la fluidez fonológica en ambos grupos de edad. Además, los niños mayores mostraron un mejor desempeño de ambas fluencias que lo…

Switching Behaviour in Smart Phone Messaging Services : It’s a Question of Context, Content, and Features of the Service

2021

This paper studies switching behaviour in smart phone messaging services. This study aims to add knowledge about the factors affecting switching behaviour in smart phone messaging services. The empirical study is qualitative, and the data was collected with interviews using the laddering method. This study was carried out to find out the reasons behind customer decisions when choosing between smart phone messaging services. Using the Push-Pull Mooring framework, the findings of this study indicate that the switching decision regarding smart phone messaging service is influenced by three factors: the context of the message, the content of the message, and the features of the service.

An Integrated Multi-service Software Simulation Platform: SIMPSONS Architecture

2005

This paper describes SIMPSONS (SIp and MPls Simulations On NS-2), which is a software platform for simulating multiple network scenarios, such as Telephony Over IP (TOIP), and multi-services networks extending the functionalities of Network Simulator NS-2. The innovative aspects of SIMPSONS is the complete integration of control protocols and traffic engineering mechanisms inside the same simulation tool. In fact, next generation networks must meet basically two fundamental requirements: support of Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Engineering (TE) functionalities. SIMPSONS is able to simulate DiffServ, MPLS, OSPF and SIP and their interaction in everything TOIP scenario. So with this po…

Anodic TiO2 in ReRAM: Influence of Si-doping on the Resistive Switching Properties of Titanium Oxide

2016

TiO2 has attracted much attention due to its potential widespread applications, including capacitors, photocatalysis, solar energy conversion and, more recently, redox-based random access memories (ReRAM). For micro and nano-electronics applications, TiO2 is usually grown through Chemical and Physical Vapour Deposition techniques, such as Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD), Sputtering and so on. In ReRAM field, the control of oxide structure (crystallinity, defects concentration etc.) and the choice of electrodes are crucial to have resistive switching phenomena inside the oxide. Thus, anodizing can be proposed as a simple and low cost way to grow TiO2 and to tune …

Non linear digital control improving transient response:design and test on a multiphase VRM

Robust and Model Predictive Control applied to DC/DC converters and Shunt Active Filters

Al giorno d'oggi, la domanda di energia elettrica incrementa giorno per giorno. La gente spesso la usa con superficialità sottovalutando quanto essa sia preziosa. Fino a qualche decennio fa, la generazione di energia elettrica era centralizzata e dipendeva dallo sfruttamento delle risorse fossili. La limitatezza delle fonti fossili, insieme agli effetti ambientali del loro sfruttamento, hanno portato la ricerca a trovare vettori energetici alternativi poco inquinanti e facilmente reperibili. Lo sviluppo e la diffusione delle fonti energetiche rinnovabili hanno sancito la fine di una rete elettrica centralizzata a favore di una nuova idea di rete elettrica di tipo distribuita che permette di…

CONTROLLO DELLA CONVERSIONE DELL'ENERGIA ELETTRICA IN MICRORETI INTELLIGENTI

La limitatezza delle fonti fossili, insieme agli effetti ambientali del loro sfruttamento, hanno portato la ricerca a trovare fonti energetiche alternative poco inquinanti e facilmente reperibili. Lo sviluppo delle fonti rinnovabili e la crescente attenzione verso l’efficienza hanno permesso l'integrazione di un nuovo sistema di distribuzione dell’energia non più centralizzato, ma basato sulla generazione distribuita, permettendo all'occorrenza anche il funzionamento in autonomia di sottosistemi della rete comprendenti generazione locale e carichi, detti microgrid (µG). Una µG (fig.1) è quindi un insieme di carichi e sorgenti di energia operanti come un unico sistema [1] e che presenta innu…
