In summary, recent literature indicates that the complications of chronic otitis media have been decreasing. However, even with the advent of modern and more powerful antimicrobials and aggressive surgical eradication of disease, the morbidity and mortality are still high. Some complications may initially be quite obvious and some complications may be quite subtle. Therefore, the most important tools in making early diagnosis are careful history and physical examination, and a high index of suspicion for impending complications. 相似文献
HBM ESD tests on two types of 0.6 μm DRAM devices showed that internal circuit or output driver failures would occur after the input or I/O pins were ESD stressed negative with respect to Vcc at ground. These failures occurred at lower than expected ESD stress voltages due to power-up circuit interactions that either turned-on unique internal parasitic ESD current paths or disrupted the normal operation of the output pin’s ESD protection circuit. ESD analysis found there exists a set of power-up sensitive circuits and if placed near a Vcc bond pad can result in low voltage ESD failures. 相似文献
The authors have developed a modified MBE growth process to produce high-gain n-p-n GaAs-AlGaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with a mean time to failure (MTTF) of 1.5×108 h at 125°C. Beryllium incorporation and diffusion are controlled through a combination of reduced substrate temperature and increased As/Ga flux ratio during MBE growth, resulting in extremely stable HBT profiles. The authors also demonstrate graded InGaAs surface layers with nonalloyed refractory metal contacts that significantly improve ohmic reliability compared to alloyed AuGe contacts. The ability to produce robust HBTs by MBE is critically important to this technology 相似文献
Three coupling strategies in matching the Ritz-Galerkin method and the finite element method are introduced for general elliptic equations, and useful numerical techniques are provided. Numerical experiments have been carried out for solving the typical, singular Motz problem, which shows that optimal convergence rates of numerical solutions can be achieved by using the combined methods and techniques provided in this paper. 相似文献

Due to the budget and environmental issues, adaptive energy efficiency receives a lot of attention these days, especially for cloud computing. In the previous research, we developed a combined methodology based on nonparametric prediction and convex optimization to produce proactive energy efficiency-oriented solution. In this work, the predictive analysis was further enhanced by deriving the mixture power spectral density to model the complex cloud monitoring statistics. By engaging the improved technique to the predictive analysis, the prediction process was more adaptive to handle the fluctuation in system utilization. As a consequence, the optimization process could subsequently produce more appropriate setting for energy savings. After the infrastructure setting has been made available, the instruction of virtual machine migration was created and implemented by the cloud orchestrator. This instruction condensed the services into the pool of active facilities, satisfying the objective of power efficiency. Eventually, any physical machine out of the power configuration would be gradually terminated. Compared to our former method, the effectiveness of the proposed technique has been proven by cutting down 4.92% of energy consumption, while still maintaining a similar quality of services.

The mobile wireless market has been attracting many customers. Technically, the paradigm of anytime-anywhere connectivity raises previously unthinkable challenges, including the management of million of mobile customers, their profiles, the profiles-based selective information dissemination, and server-side computing infrastructure design issues to support such a large pool of users automatically and intelligently. In this paper, we propose a data mining technique for discovering frequent behavioral patterns from a collection of trajectories gathered by Global Positioning System. Although the search space for spatiotemporal knowledge is extremely challenging, imposing spatial and temporal constraints on spatiotemporal sequences makes the computation feasible. Specifically, the mined patterns are incorporated with synthetic constraints, namely spatiotemporal sequence length restriction, minimum and maximum timing gap between events, time window of occurrence of the whole pattern, inclusion or exclusion event constraints, and frequent movement patterns predictive of one ore more classes. The algorithm for mining all frequent constrained patterns is named cAllMOP. Moreover, to control the density of pattern regions a clustering algorithm is exploited. The proposed method is efficient and scalable. Its efficiency is better than that of the previous algorithms AllMOP and GSP with respect to the compactness of discovered knowledge, execution time, and memory requirement. 相似文献
Tetraalkylammonium cellulosates were prepared by means of an exchange reaction between cellulose and tetraalkylammonium methoxides in anhydrous methanol and dimethylsulfoxide up to a degree of substitution of about 0,7 without chain degradation. The course of this reaction and the structure of the cellulosates in comparison to lithium and sodium cellulosate has been studied. The reaction rate and the equilibrium substitution decreased with increasing size of the cation in the methoxide. The distribution of the alcoholate groups in equilibrium at C-2, C-3 and C-6 of the glucopyranosyl unit in the cellulosates, which was investigated by methylation, hydrolysis of the methylcelluloses, and analysis of the methylglucoses by gas chromatography, was independent of the nature of the cation. Under the given reaction conditions the hydroxyl group at C-2 was more acidic than those at C-3 and C-6, while for the latter practically no difference was found. The tetraalkylammonium cellulosates are highly reactive intermediates for the preparation of cellulose derivatives. The reactivity of the cellulosates increased with increasing size of the cation, Li⊕ < Na⊕ < N(CH3)4⊕ <[(CH3)3N? CH2? C6H5]⊕. 相似文献
