The modulation spectrum is an efficient representation for describing dynamic information in signals. In this work we investigate how to exploit different elements of the modulation spectrum for extraction of information in automatic recognition of speech ...
We propose a novel framework for blockcipher-based double-length hash functions by extending the recent generalization presented by Stam at FSE '09 for single-call hash functions. We focus on compression functions compressing 3n bits to 2n bits that use on ...

This paper presents the OpenDF framework and recalls that dataflow programming was once invented to address the problem of parallel computing. We discuss the problems with an imperative style, von Neumann programs,and present what we believe are the advanta ...
In the world of High Performance Computing (newly renamed "High Productivity Computing"), where the race for performance is on, where the hunt for the last Flop rages and where the developers swear by the Cult of Power, the different applications have diff ...
Dynamically allocating computing nodes to parallel applications is a promising technique for improving the utilization of cluster resources. Detailed simulations can help identify allocation strategies and problem decomposition parameters that increase the ...

Stencil-assisted oxygen reactive ion etching is a low-cost and parallel process for the replication of micrometric and nanometric patterns in any organic material. This lithography process allows the patterning of organic material non sensitive to electron ...
Nature is an incredibly complex system resulting from the interactions of many different interdependent species, composed of many individual organisms, which are in turn composed of an extremely large number of cells. In multi-cellular organisms, the paral ...
Earlier experimental work on decellularized arteries revealed the existence of significant residual stresses within the arterial wall, which are released upon chemical removal of vascular smooth muscle in normal arteries causing substantial radial expansio ...
This thesis aims at better understanding the role played by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSM) in the biomechanics of the arterial wall. Current models assume that under maximal vasodilation VSM carry no load, or the so-called "active stress" is zero. Biom ...
