Since the beginning of the twenty-first century the limitations of the fossil age with regard to the continuing growth of energy demand, the peaking mining rate of oil, the growing impact of CO2 emissions on the environment and the dependency of the econom ...
This article reports the design, synthesis and results of first in vitro model studies of a conceptually novel class of polymer therapeutics in which the cargo is attached to a polymer backbone via a noncovalent, biologically inspired coiled coil linker, w ...
In the present paper, a model of a solar tower power plant (STPP) is presented. This is the result of a Master semester project led at the Laboratory for Industrial Energetic Systems (LENI) at the Swiss Federal Institute in Lausanne (EPFL). The modelized p ...
The system comprises at least three anchors (2, 2', 2") intended to be attached to the patient and equipped with markers (5, 5', 5"), an insertion guide device (6) with an insertion guide (7) intended to be attached to said anchors (2, 2', 2"), an external ...
The system comprises at least a support (5) to be attached to a patient by fixing means (4), said support having an outer thread (7), a first nut (9) with an inner thread (11 ) cooperating with said outer thread (7) and an anchor having a spherical bottom ...
This work is dedicated to the sensible optimization and porting of a multi-lead (ML) wavelet-transform (WT)-based electrocardiogram (ECG) wave delineator to a state-of-the-art commercial wearable embedded sensor platform with limited processing and storage ...
This thesis presents a novel approach for optical tri-dimensional contouring, requiring only one acquisition to extract a contour depth. It is based on an interferometric setup, using a reduced coherence light source, and is fully adaptable to endoscopic p ...
This paper presents a simple framework unifying a family of consensus algorithms that can tolerate process crash failures and asynchronous periods of the network, also called indulgent consensus algorithms. Key to the framework is a new abstraction we intr ...
We propose several methods for speeding up the processing of particle physics data on clusters of PCs. We present a new way of indexing and retrieving data in a high dimensional space by making use of two levels of catalogues enabling an efficient data pre ...
The present invention relates to novel organometallic compds. for use as a medicine, in particular in photodynamic therapy against various diseases, such as cancer. The compds. comprise a central porphyrin or phthalocyanine backbone to which ligand linkers ...
