Theoretical foundation of the 80/20 rule

A rigorous analysis of the 80/20 rule is made using an index for the observed values of the variables. Three important findings are identified. First, a sufficient condition is provided for Burrell's inverse relationship between minimum holdings and average circulation rate. Second, an indexed version of Lotka's law is used to derive a sufficient condition for Egghe's finding on the 80/20 rule. Third, through the computer simulations of the Simon-Yule model of Lotka's law, we identify the entry rate of new holdings as well as the number of circulations when the entry rate is a decreasing function to be crucial factors for the pattern of the 80/20-type curve.

Uptake characteristics of loracarbef and cephalexin in the Caco-2 cell culture model: effects of the proton gradient and possible presence of a distinctive second component

The mechanisms of apical (AP) uptake of cephalexin (CEPH) and loracarbef (LOR) in the absence or presence of an (extemally imposed) proton gradient were determined using well-stirred diffusion chambers that minimize the effects of the unstirred water layer. The results indicated that, compared to AP uptake in the presence of an imposed proton gradient, AP uptake in the absence of an imposed proton gradient had higher K(m) values and lower Jmax values. Furthermore, when inhibition studies were performed in the absence of a proton gradient, only natural peptides were effective, whereas the peptide analogs (e.g., enalapril) were not. In addition to the effects of concentration and competitive inhibitors, the results also indicated that (1) the AP uptake of both drugs was decreased more than 60% by FCCP, regardless of whether the proton gradient was present or absent; (2) effects of protein kinase C promoter were dependent upon the presence of a proton gradient; and (3) AP uptake in the presence of an imposed proton gradient was not affected by feeding restriction, whereas AP uptake in the absence of an imposed proton gradient was. These results showed for the first time that two substrates with similar AP uptake characteristics in the presence of an imposed proton gradient may not share those characteristics in the absence of an imposed proton gradient. Taken together, these results suggest that the AP uptake component that functions in the absence of an imposed proton gradient is distinctly different from the one that functions in the presence of an imposed proton gradient. Data generated from the present study and those in the literature lend support to the hypothesis that this distinctive component represents the second binding site on the AP peptide transporter. However, an alternative hypothesis that there are two AP peptide transporters remains to be disapproved.

Axisymmetric dynamic response of a penny-shaped crack to a pair of transient concentrated forces

The three-dimensional axisymmetric elastodynamic response of a penny-shaped crack embedded in an infinite elastic solid subjected to a pair of transient concentrated forces is investigated. The forces are applied on the symmetry axis perpendicular and symmetric to the crack surfaces, including the special case when the forces act precisely on the crack surfaces. A time-domain boundary integral equation method is applied for computing the crack-opening displacement and subsequently the time dependence of the dynamic stress intensity factors. Numerical calculations are carried out for various geometry parameters and the results are discussed. It is found that the location of the applied concentrated forces inducing the highest dynamic stress intensity factors differs from that producing the highest static values.     

Reverse reachability analysis: A new technique for deadlock detection on communicating finite state machines

The communicating finite state machines can exchange messages over bounded FIFO channels. In this paper, a new technique, called reverse reachability analysis, is proposed to detect deadlocks on the communication between the communicating finite state machines. The technique is based on finding reverse reachable paths starting from possible deadlock states. If a reverse reachable path can reach the initial global state, then deadlock occurs. Otherwise the communication is deadlock-free. The effectiveness of the technique has been verified by some real protocols such as a specification of X.25 call establishment/clear protocol and Bartlet's alternating bit protocol.     

Multimedia Signal Processors: An Architectural Platform with Algorithmic Compilation

Novel algorithmic features of multimedia applications and advances in VLSI technologies are driving forces behind the new multimedia signal processors. We propose an architecture platform which could provide high performance and flexibility, and would require less external I/O and memory access. It is comprised of array processors to be used as the hardware accelerator and RISC cores to be used as the basis of the programmable processor. It is a hierarchical and scalable architecture style which facilitates the hardware-software codesign of multimedia signal processing circuits and systems. While some control-intensive functions can be implemented using programmable CPUs, other computation-intensive functions can rely on hardware accelerators.To compile multimedia algorithms, we also present an operation placement and scheduling scheme suitable for the proposed architectural platform. Our scheme addresses data reusability and exploits local communication in order to avoid the memory/communication bandwidth bottleneck, which leads to faster program execution. Our method shows a promising performance: a linear speed-up of 16 times can be achieved for the block-matching motion estimation algorithm and the true motion tracking algorithm, which have formed many multimedia applications (e.g., MPEG-2 and MPEG-4).
