Inhibition Of Metastatic Tumors
Published Wednesday, May 28, 2014Cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the United States. Death of cancer patients is most often caused by metastatic spread of tumor cells from the primary tumor site through the bloodstream where the cells lie dormant for long periods. These dormant cells will invade secondary sites such as the lung, liver or kidney where they develop...

Conservation Dependencies
Published Wednesday, October 3, 2012Many constraints and rules have been used to analyze data quality: functional, inclusion and sequential dependencies, association rules, etc. Additionally, a broad class of tools not covered by existing constraints may be identified, where a “conservation law” exists between related quantities. Conservation laws, however, are obeyed only to...

On-chip Ultra-wideband Chaotic Oscillator Circuit Using Boolean Chaos Algorithm
Published Thursday, September 6, 2012BackgroundIn the fields of chaos encryption communication and chaotic sensor networks, the generation of a wideband chaotic signal is essential. Because of the sensitive nature of chaos to parasitic effects, it is hard to generate a high speed and wideband chaotic oscillator. Inductive and capacitive coupling by the periphery circuit,...
