Vector-supercomputers

Today, the field of high-speed computers and supercomputing applications is dominated by the vector-processor architecture. This paper gives a survey on the architectural principles of vector computers like segmentation, pipelining, and chaining as well as on the spectrum of real systems available in the market. It illuminates the potentiality and the limitations of vectorization strategies. Recent developments towards multi-vectorcomputer systems give impact to new supercomputing concepts balancing vectorization versus parallel computation by exploiting multitasking principles. Covering a wide spectrum of applications vector-supercomputers are making relevant contributions to the progress in scientific research and technology.     

MgO/MCM-22催化苯与草酸二乙酯烷基化合成乙苯的研究

实验以MgO/MCM-22为催化剂,在气相连续流动固定床反应器上催化苯与草酸二乙酯(DEO)烷基化,合成乙苯(EB)。考察了MgO负载量变化和工艺条件的影响。以硝酸镁为前驱体通过等体积浸渍法制备了MgO/MCM-22催化剂,并以低温N_2吸附脱附、X射线衍射、NH_3-TPD、吡啶吸附IR等,对催化剂进行了表征。实验结果表明:随MgO负载量的增加,苯的转化率逐渐下降,而乙苯的选择性明显提高,这主要是由于负载MgO后催化剂的酸性位数量下降引起的。以MCM-22为催化剂,在最佳反应条件下:温度653 K,空速为2 h~(-1),原料配比n(苯):n(DEO)=4:1,苯的转化率为37.5%,乙苯选择性为80.3%。     

A survey of singular curves in sub-Riemannian geometry

Sub-Riemannian geometry is the geometry of a distribution ofk-planes on an-dimensional manifold with a smoothly varying inner product on thek-planes. Singular curves are singularities of the space of paths tangent to the distribution and joining two fixed points. This survey is devoted to the singular curves, which can be length minimizing geodesics, independent of the choice of inner product.     

HCFC22-based absorption cooling systems,part III: Effects of different absorbers and condenser temperatures

Generally in a vapour absorption refrigeration system (VARS) heat rejection temperatures at absorber (T_a) and condenser (T_c) are taken to be equal. However, different temperatures can exist when the cooling water flows in series through the two components. Under such situations, it is essential to know which of T_a and T_c has greater influence on the performance of the VARS. Here the influence of different T_a and T_c on the performance of a single-stage VARS working with HCFC22 as a refrigerant and three organic solvents, namely DMA, DMF and DEMTEG, as absorbents is studied. Results are obtained over a wide range of operating temperatures. To improve the performance of HCFC22-based VARS, results reveal that (i) the cooling water in parallel pipe connections should be used at low values of temperatures at evaporator, cooling water and heat source, and (ii) cooling water should first flow through condenser and then through the absorber when evaporator and heat source temperatures are high over the complete range of cooling water temperatures. COP_th is more sensitive to T_c than to T_a.

IgG from Adult Atopic Dermatitis (AD) Patients Induces Thymic IL-22 Production and CLA Expression on CD4+ T Cells: Possible Epigenetic Implications Mediated by miRNA

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common relapsing inflammatory skin disorder characterized by immune-mediated inflammation and epidermal barrier dysfunction. The pathogenesis of AD is multifactorial and has not been fully elucidated to date. This study aimed to evaluate whether serum IgG from adult AD patients could modulate the thymic maturation of IL-22-producing T cells and CLA+ T cells of non-atopic infants. Given that miRNAs regulate immune response genes, we evaluated whether miRNA expression is also altered in cultured thymocytes. Thymocytes were cultured with purified IgG from AD patients or control conditions (mock, Intravenous-IgG (IVIg), non-atopic IgG, or atopic non-AD IgG). Using flow cytometry analysis, we assessed the expression of CLA and intracellular levels of IL-4, IFN-γ, and IL-22 on double-positive T cells (DP T), CD4 T cells, or CD8 T cells. We also investigated the frequency of IgG isotypes and their direct interaction with the thymic T cells membrane. The miRNA profiles were evaluated by the Illumina small RNA-seq approach. MiRNA target gene prediction and enrichment analyses were performed using bioinformatics. Increased frequencies of IL-22 and CLA+ producing CD4+ T cells cultured with IgG of AD patients was seen in non-atopic infant thymocytes compared to all control conditions. No alterations were observed in the frequency of IgG isotypes among evaluated IgG pools. Evidence for a direct interaction between IgG and thymic DP T, CD4 T, and CD8 T cells is presented. The small RNA-seq analysis identified ten mature miRNAs that were modulated by AD IgG compared to mock condition (miR-181b-5p, hsa-miR-130b-3p, hsa-miR-26a-5p, hsa-miR-4497, has-miR-146a, hsa-let-7i-5p, hsa-miR-342-3p, has-miR-148a-3p, has-miR-92a and has-miR-4492). The prediction of the targetome of the seven dysregulated miRNAs between AD and mock control revealed 122 putative targets, and functional and pathway enrichment analyses were performed. Our results enhance our understanding of the mechanism by which IgG can collaborate in thymic T cells in the setting of infant AD.

Microstructures of spinodal phases in Cu-15Ni-8Sn alloy

The microstructures of spinodal phases in Cu-15Ni-8Sn alloy were studied by TEM. It was found that when the alloy is completely in a as-quenched state, spinodal decomposition is quick. Ordering appears after spinodal decomposition. The ordered phase with DO22 structure has three variants obtained from coarsening spinodal structure. The reason of ordering appeared after spinodal decomposition is that the content of solute atoms needed by ordering is higher than the average, which can be reached by the composition fluctuation of spinodal decomposition. It was speculated that the morphology of the ordered phase is needle-like.

MCM-22沸石催化剂的苯与长链烯烃烷基化性能

用NH3-TPD法研究了4种不同硅铝摩尔比的MCM-22沸石的酸性质,在常压间歇式反应器中考察了它们在苯与长链烯烃烷基化反应中的催化性能,并与HY和HZSM-5沸石催化剂进行了比较。实验结果发现MCM-22的催化活性与其强酸量有一致的关系,与其硅铝摩尔比无对应关系;MCM-22的活性比HY低,但对2-P的选择性远远高于HY,这说明了MCM-22对2-P具有形状选择作用。
