Early stages of hot-electron thermalization in small gold nanoparticles wrapped in an adsorbates shell have been investigated by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. Type-I hot electrons thermalize in 800 fs (to form type-II hot electron) either ...
We propose a new type of “hybrid” ultrasonic driving principle for our monolithic piezoelectric actuators, which consist of simple electrode patterning on a PZT ceramic substrate The operating principle of the proposed USM is based on the conversion of ell ...
We apply a model construction methodology to TinyOS-based networks, using the Behavior-Interaction-Priority (BIP) component framework. The methodology consists in building the model of a node as the composition of a model extracted from a nesC program desc ...
We define a new task of question answering on meeting records and assess its difficulty in terms of types of information and retrieval techniques required. The importance of this task is revealed by the increasingly growing interest in the design of sophis ...
We provide an algebraic formalisation of connectors in BIP. These are used to structure interactions in a component-based system. A connector relates a set of typed ports. Types are used to describe different modes of synchronisation: rendezvous and broadc ...
This paper examines the effects of political pressure groups (lobbies) on the size and stability of international climate agreements. We consider two types of lobbies, industry and environmentalists. We show the potential effects of lobbying using the STAb ...
In this paper we design a language and runtime support for isolation-only, multithreaded transactions (called tasks). Tasks allow isolation to be declared instead of having to be encoded using the low-level synchronization constructs. The key concept of ou ...
Std. bioprocess conditions have been widely applied for the microbial conversion of raw material to essential industrial products. Successful metabolic engineering (ME) strategies require a comprehensive framework to manage the complexity embedded in cellu ...
This paper studies the interplay between inner classes and virtual types. The combination of these two concepts can be observed in object-oriented languages like Beta or Scala. This study is based on a calculus of classes and objects composed of a very lim ...
Given the interplaying tendencies of economic decline, social instability, and environmental depletion, any transition towards sustainable development faces a challenging task. To successfully cope with this complexity requires transition management. Integ ...
