  • Wood-Rotting Fungal Pigments as Colorant Coatings on Oil-Based Textile Dyes: A Detailed View of the Interaction between Fungal Pigments and Some Commercial Fabrics

    Creator:
    Palomino Agurto, Mardonio
    Abstract:
    Natural dyes have been used to color textiles for centuries, but with the shift to mass production, the use of synthetic dyes has increased due to their lower cost and easy manufacturing volume. However, synthetic dyes (such as disperse blue dyes 106 and 124) have been reported to cause skin...

  • Identifying and Removing On-chip Network Bottleneck in Throughput Processors

    Creator:
    Li, Yunfan
    Abstract:
    The high level of parallelism in throughput processors such as GPGPUs has resulted in significantly changed on-chip data traffic behaviors. This demands new research to identify and address the limiting factors of networks-on-chip (NoCs) in the context of throughput processors. In this work, we first quantitatively analyze the performance of...

    Creator:
    Waring, Richard H.
    Abstract:
    Over the last decade a new perspective on how forest ecosystems operate has emerged. Ecosystems appear much more flex­ible than we once thought. Even the most persistent is still evolving in composition. Yet for all their diversity, very similar processes are seen as operating in all forests, providing a point...
