  • Evaluation of Vitis rootstocks for tolerance to low soil pH

    Creator:
    Taylor, Patrick Andrew
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to determine the relative tolerance of grafted Vitis rootstocks to low soil pH. In this capacity, the data may be pooled with results from previous investigations to increase the overall aptitude profile of Vitis rootstocks. A potential application of this information is that the...

  • The Architecture of a Reusable Built-In Self-Test for Link Training, IO and Memory Defect Detection and Auto Repair on 14nm Intel SOC

    Creator:
    Querbach, Bruce
    Abstract:
    The complexity of designing and testing today's system on chip (SOC) is increasing due to greater integrated circuit (IC) density and higher IO and memory frequencies. SOCs for the mobile phone and tablet market have the unique challenge of short product development windows, at times less than six months, and...

  • Techniques for improving timing accuracy of multi-gigahertz track/hold circuits

    Creator:
    Wang, Jingguang
    Abstract:
    Multi-Gigahertz sampling rate Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC) with 5-8 bits resolution are used in many signal communication applications. Unfortunately, the performance of the high speed ADC is limited by the timing accuracy of the sampling clock. A small sampling uncertainty can cause a large error in the sampled voltage and result...

  • Analysis and design on low-power multi-Gb/s serial links

    Creator:
    Hu, Kangmin
    Abstract:
    High speed serial links are critical components for addressing the growing demand for I/O bandwidth in next-generation computing applications, such as many-core systems, backplane and optical data communications. Due to continued process scaling and circuit innovations, today's CMOS serial link transceivers can achieve tens of Gb/s per pin. However, most...

  • Energy efficient communication across on-chip wires in digital CMOS

    Creator:
    Postman, Jacob
    Abstract:
    For the past half century, CMOS process scaling has followed Moore's law, approximately doubling transistor density every 18 months. While locally routed wires have generally scaled with transistor size, longer wires have scaled at a slower rate and in some cases have grown larger as chip size and complexity have...

  • The effect of energy efficiency on the demand for heat

    Creator:
    Cleland, Andrew L.
    Abstract:
    Increased efficiency of household energy-using appliances effectively lowers the price of the services these devices provide. Basic consumer theory predicts that ceteris paribus, these lower prices will increase usage, thus making the effect on total energy demand ambiguous. In the literature, this phenomenon has been called the rebound effect. In...

  • The acute effects of moderate intensity circuit weight training on lipid-lipoprotein profiles

    Creator:
    Lee, Young-soo
    Abstract:
    Few studies have examined the acute effects of resistive-type exercise on lipid-lipoprotein profiles. This study examined the acute effects of a single session of circuit weight training (CWT) on plasma lipid-lipoprotein profiles: triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and the ratio...

  • Cardiorespiratory responses to circuit weight training as measured by a biokinetic swim-bench test and a treadmill run test

    Creator:
    Chiang, Jasson
    Abstract:
    The goal of this study was to determine if the cardiorespiratory adaptations to an eight-week circuit weight training program are better measured with a biokinetic swim-bench test versus a standard treadmill test. The working hypothesis of the study was that since standard circuit weight training programs stress the upper body...

  • Energy-efficient clock generation for communication and computing systems using injection locking

    Creator:
    Ma, Chao
    Abstract:
    The design of high-performance, high-speed clock generation and distribution becomes challenging in terms of phase noise, jitter and power consumption, due to the fast development of communication and computing systems. Injection locking is a promising clocking technique since it can significantly improve the energy efficiency, suppress the phase noise of...

    Abstract:
    An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of dietary copper (Cu) on Cu status and lipid metabolism in Holstein and Jersey cattle. Eight Jersey and8 Holstein cows in mid-lactation were blocked by days in milk (169 ± 37) and assigned at random to one of two diets. Cows received...
