Simlab 1 - A Laboratory Workflow Recorder for Process Assessment

Process management and workflow optimisation have become key issues of good laboratory management and now seem to be predominant over traditional challenges such as the quality of analytical testing. The first author of this paper has conducted several workflow optimisation studies for clinical laboratories in Europe (Universities of Zurich and Amsterdam, Manchester Royal Infirmary and others) and in the US (University of Virginia), using a laboratory-specific simulation software called Simlab™ for realistic computer modeling of laboratory scenarios. Since data input and calibration of the models against reality have always been a challenge in these studies, we looked into possibilities of using automated data extraction to extract as much information as possible from the laboratory information system. In this paper we describe our first experience with a Microsoft Excel™-based software program called Simlab 1, which uses the ASCII file transfer protocol to extract data from the LIS.     

Effect of MOVPE growth interruptions on the gallium arsenide interior interface morphology

We have studied MOVPE-grown interior GaAs/AlAs interfaces using highly selective etching combined with atomic force microscopy. We observe substantial restructuring for samples grown on both (100) exact and vicinal substrates. Interface structures differ significantly from sample surfaces after cool-down. On (100) exact substrates, the macroscopic monolayer island and terrace structure smoothes during growth interruptions over the whole 2 min period of time studied. A new, mesoscopic scale of roughness is detected for the first time. This structure does not depend on growth interruption time but does change its typical size at different growth temperatures. On vicinal substrates, we observe and quantify step bunching during growth interruption. The growing surface itself is smooth, in sharp contrast to the corresponding macrostepped GaAs sample surface obtained after cooling down.     

The history of alternative fuels in transportation: The case of electric and hybrid cars

The article describes and presents a critical analysis of the long history of alternative fuels and propulsion technologies, particularly in automobile applications. Cases are electric and hybrid cars. The term “critical analysis” refers to the analysis of the various alternative technologies in relation to their societal contexts. In particular, these are the varying contexts of energy security, energy policy, environmental problems, sustainability, and also the later more explicit climate change context. This approach gives some knowledge with relevance to the current discussions on implementation issues. The work is first of all founded on the knowledge field of “Social Studies of Technological Systems”.     

Parametrizing compactly supported orthonormal wavelets by discrete moments

We discuss parametrizations of filter coefficients of scaling functions and compactly supported orthonormal wavelets with several vanishing moments. We introduce the first discrete moments of the filter coefficients as parameters. The discrete moments can be expressed in terms of the continuous moments of the related scaling function. To solve the resulting polynomial equations we use symbolic computation and in particular Gröbner bases. The cases of four to ten filter coefficients are discussed and explicit parametrizations are given.     

Trilateral Intercomparison of Photometric Units Maintained at NIST (USA), NPL (UK), and PTB (Germany)

A trilateral intercomparison of photometric units between NIST (USA), NPL (UK), and PTB (Germany) has been conducted to update the knowledge of the relationship between the photometric units disseminated in the three countries. The luminous intensity unit (cd), the luminous responsivity scale (A/lx), and the luminous flux unit (lm) maintained at each laboratory were compared by circulating transfer standard lamps and photometers. The results showed that the relative luminous intensity values, with respect to the average, measured by NIST, NPL, and PTB were 1.0014, 1.0021, and 0.9966; the relative inverse values of the luminous responsivity (corresponding to illuminance) were 1.0023, 1.0011, and 0.9965; the relative luminous flux values were 0.9994, 1.0034, and 0.9972, respectively. The results agreed within the stated uncertainties of the units maintained at the three laboratories.     

Optimal Design of Electronic Components by Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming

Computer-aided design optimization of electronic components is a powerful tool to reduce development costs on one hand and to improve the performance of the components on the other. In this paper, a mathematical model of an electronic filter is outlined. It depends on certain parameters, some of them of being continuous, others of integer type. The purpose of the paper is to introduce an extension of the well-known sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method to solve the mixed-integer programming problem (MINLP). It is assumed that the integer variables cannot be relaxed to real ones, that the integer range is sufficiently large, and that they possess some physical meaning so that they basically behave like continuous ones. The general idea is to combine an SQP step with a direct search cycle in the integer space. Hessian information is updated based on difference formulae at neighbored grid points. Numerical results are included to show the feasibility of the mixed-integer nonlinear programming code for academic test examples and in addition for the optimal design of an electronic filter.     

Enantioselective synthesis of a 3'-dephenylcryptophycin synthon

An enantioselective synthesis of tert-butyl (5S,6R)-(E)-5-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy-6-methyl-2,7-octadieno ate, a precursor for the synthesis of the antimitotic macrolides cryptophycin A and arenastatin A (cryptophycin-24), is presented. The key step in the reaction sequence features a crotyl boration that sets both stereocenters that become the C16 hydroxyl and Cl' methyl in the cryptophycins. Homologation of the terminal olefin via a Heck reaction is presented.
