A carboxylate-bridged NiII8 cluster with a distorted cubane topology: structure, magnetism and density functional studies

2016

Using a dicarboxylate ligand appended with (2-pyridyl)ethylamine unit, a new cluster [NiII8(L4)6(DMF)2(CH3OH)2(H2O)6][ClO4]4·2CH3OH·2CH3CO2C2H5 (1) [L4(2−): 3-[N-{2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl}amino]-bis(propionate)] has been synthesized, through ‘coordination-driven self-assembly’. The crystal structure of 1 reveals a centrosymmetric octanuclear carboxylate-bridged nickel(II) tetracation, with a distorted cubane topology. The four crystallographically independent nickel(II) centres differ markedly in their coordination environment. Magnetic studies (2–300 K) reveal that in 1 the net magnetic-exchange is antiferromagnetic. Based on geometric parameters associated with two interacting nickel(II) cen…

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a cyanide-bridged heterometallic {CoIIMnIII} chain

2017

The assembly reaction between the low-spin [CoII(dmphen)(CN)3]- metalloligand and the [MnIII(salen)(H2O)]+ complex cation yielded the one-dimensional compound {[MnIII(salen)(μ-NC)2CoII(dmphen)(CN)]·2H2O}n (1), which behaves as a ferrimagnetic chain, the intrachain magnetic coupling being J = -1.71(1) cm-1.

Topological congruence between phylogenies of Anacanthorus spp. (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) and their Characiformes (Actinopterygii) hosts: A case of…

2017

Cophylogenetic studies aim at testing specific hypotheses to understand the nature of coevolving associations between sets of organisms, such as host and parasites. Monogeneans and their hosts provide and interesting platform for these studies due to their high host specificity. In this context, the objective of the present study was to establish whether the relationship between Anacanthorus spp. with their hosts from the upper Paraná River and its tributaries can be explained by means of cospeciation processes. Nine fish species and 14 monogenean species, most of them host specific, were studied. Partial DNA sequences of the genes RAG1, 16S and COI of the fish hosts and of the genes ITS2, …

The effect of fish life-history structures on the topologies of aquatic food webs

2021

Biological organisms can vastly change their ecological functionality due to changes in body size and diet across their life. Consequently, it has been increasingly recognized that to attain sufficient biological realism, food webs may need to include life-history structures. The objective of the work is to study theoretically whether and how the inclusion of life-history structures affects the food web topology. Topological research was done by applying network theory metrics for three different food web types with two different sizes that were generated by using the niche-model. The dynamical modeling was performed by using an allometric trophic network modeling approach. The different ty…

Communication cost of channel estimation interpolation for group-based vehicular communications in cellular networks

2020

Las comunicaciones inalámbricas para aplicaciones vehiculares en sistemas celulares de quinta generación (5G) deben ser de baja latencia y alta fiabilidad. Entre otros factores, la cantidad de información de control que debe intercambiarse entre cada vehículo y la estación base puede penalizar la latencia de la comunicación. Varios casos de uso vehicular 5G implican comunicaciones dentro de grupos de vehículos, por ejemplo el pelotón de vehículos. Este trabajo se centra en explotar la estructura y características de este servicio vehicular particular basado en grupos para disminuir el intercambio de información de control relacionado con la etapa de estimación del canal necesaria para las c…

Multi-application Based Network-on-Chip Design for Mesh-of-Tree Topology Using Global Mapping and Reconfigurable Architecture

2019

This paper outlines a multi-application mapping for Mesh-of-Tree (MoT) topology based Network-on-Chip (NoC) design using reconfigurable architecture. A two phase Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) has been proposed for reconfigurable architecture to minimize the communication cost. In first phase global mapping is done by combining multiple applications and in second phase, reconfiguration is achieved by switching the cores to near by routers using multiplexers. Experimentations have been carried out for several application benchmarks and synthetic applications generated using TGFF tool. The results show significant improvement in terms of communication cost after reconfiguration.

Fault-Tolerant Network-on-Chip Design for Mesh-of-Tree Topology Using Particle Swarm Optimization

2018

As the size of the chip is scaling down the density of Intellectual Property (IP) cores integrated on a chip has been increased rapidly. The communication between these IP cores on a chip is highly challenging. To overcome this issue, Network-on-Chip (NoC) has been proposed to provide an efficient and a scalable communication architecture. In the deep sub-micron level NoCs are prone to faults which can occur in any component of NoC. To build a reliable and robust systems, it is necessary to apply efficient fault-tolerant techniques. In this paper, we present a flexible spare core placement in Mesh-of-Tree (MoT) topology using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) by considering IP core failures…

Torus Topology based Fault-Tolerant Network-on-Chip Design with Flexible Spare Core Placement

2018

The increase in the density of the IP cores being fabricated on a chip poses on-chip communication challenges and heat dissipation. To overcome these issues, Network-onChip (NoC) based communication architecture is introduced. In the nanoscale era NoCs are prone to faults which results in performance degradation and un-reliability. Hence efficient fault-tolerant methods are required to make the system reliable in contrast to diverse component failures. This paper presents a flexible spare core placement in torus topology based faulttolerant NoC design. The communications related to the failed core is taken care by selecting the best position for a spare core in the torus network. By conside…
