Preservd - Privacy Ensured Service Discovery In Mobile Peer-To-Peer Networks, Santhosh Muthyapu, Sanjay Kumar Madria, Mark Linderman Dec 2010

Preservd - Privacy Ensured Service Discovery In Mobile Peer-To-Peer Networks, Santhosh Muthyapu, Sanjay Kumar Madria, Mark Linderman

Computer Science Faculty Research & Creative Works

In mobile peer-to-peer networks, proposed service discovery protocols disregard the exposure of the participating peers' privacy details (privileged information). in these methods, the participating peers must provide their identities during the service discovery process to be authorized to utilize services. However, a peer may not be willing to reveal its privileged information until it identifies the service providing peer. So, these peers face a problem; should the service requesting or the service providing peer reveal the identity first. the protocol presented in [12] solves this problem to some extent and discover the services available in the service requester's vicinity in …

Referrals To A Regional Allergy Clinic - An Eleven Year Audit., Ray B. Jones, Paul Hewson, Edward R. Kaminski Dec 2010

Referrals To A Regional Allergy Clinic - An Eleven Year Audit., Ray B. Jones, Paul Hewson, Edward R. Kaminski

School of Nursing and Midwifery

BACKGROUND: Allergy is a serious and apparently increasing public health problem yet relatively little is known about the types of allergy seen in routine tertiary practice, including their spatial distribution, co-occurrence or referral patterns. This study reviewed referrals over an eleven year period to a regional allergy clinic that had a well defined geographical boundary. For those patients confirmed as having an allergy we explored: (i) differences over time and by demographics, (ii) types of allergy, (iii) co-occurrence, and (iv) spatial distributions. METHODS: Data were extracted from consultant letters to GPs, from September 1998 to September 2009, for patients confirmed …


Coherent Heteroepitaxy Of Bi2se3 On Gaas (111)B, Anthony Richardella, Duming M. Zhang, Joon S. Lee, Alison E. Patteson (Koser), David W. Rench, Andrew L. Yeats, Bob B. Buckley, David D. Awschalom, Nitin Samarth Dec 2010

Coherent Heteroepitaxy Of Bi2se3 On Gaas (111)B, Anthony Richardella, Duming M. Zhang, Joon S. Lee, Alison E. Patteson (Koser), David W. Rench, Andrew L. Yeats, Bob B. Buckley, David D. Awschalom, Nitin Samarth

Physics - All Scholarship

We report the heteroepitaxy of single crystal thin films of Bi2Se3 on the (111)B surface of GaAs by molecular beam epitaxy. We find that Bi2Se3 grows highly c-axis oriented, with an atomically sharp interface with the GaAs substrate. By optimizing the growth of a very thin GaAs buffer layer before growing the ⁠Bi2Se3, we demonstrate the growth of thin films with atomically flat terraces over hundreds of nanometers. Initial time-resolved Kerr rotation measurements herald opportunities for probing coherent spin dynamics at the interface between a candidate topological insulator and a large class of GaAs-based heterostructures.


The Potential Relationship Between The Traits Associated With Left Brain Or Right Brain Dominant Tendencies And The Characteristics Of Leaders Or Managers, Alex Keto Dec 2010

The Potential Relationship Between The Traits Associated With Left Brain Or Right Brain Dominant Tendencies And The Characteristics Of Leaders Or Managers, Alex Keto

Theses and Graduate Projects

The debate over whether the characteristics of leadership and management are unique characteristics or whether they are one-in-the-same characteristics continues today. In the past, traditionally, the best managers within a company were promoted to roles of leadership and many times these new leaders failed. There is growing support for the concept that the characteristics of highly effective leaders and managers are unique. A review of these characteristics reveals a potential relationship between the characteristics of exceptional managers and the traits that have been associated with left brain dominant tendencies. The characteristics of exceptional leaders relate to the traits that have …

A Religious Revolution? How Socrates' Theology Undermined The Practice Of Sacrifice, Anna Lannstrom Dec 2010

A Religious Revolution? How Socrates' Theology Undermined The Practice Of Sacrifice, Anna Lannstrom

The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter

Mark McPherran and Gregory Vlastos argue that Socrates’ theology threatened Athenian sacrificial practices because it rejected the do ut des principle (aka the principle of reciprocity). I argue that their arguments are flawed because they assume that the Athenians understood sacrifice as something like a commercial transaction. Drawing upon scholarship in anthropology and religious studies, I argue that we need to revise that understanding of sacrifice and that, once we do, McPherran’s and Vlastos’ arguments no longer show that Socrates would have been a significant threat to the practice of sacrifice. Finally, I argue that McPherran’s Socrates does undermine sacrifice, …

Using Off-Diagonal Confinement As A Cooling Method, V. G. Rousseau, K. Hettiarachchilage, M. Jarrell, J. Moreno, D. E. Sheehy Dec 2010

Using Off-Diagonal Confinement As A Cooling Method, V. G. Rousseau, K. Hettiarachchilage, M. Jarrell, J. Moreno, D. E. Sheehy

Faculty Publications

In a recent letter we proposed a new confining method for ultracold atoms on optical lattices, which is based on off-diagonal confinement (ODC). This method was shown to have distinct advantages over the conventional diagonal confinement (DC), which makes use of a trapping potential, such as the existence of pure Mott phases and highly populated condensates. In this manuscript we show that the ODC method can also lead to lower temperatures than the DC method for a wide range of control parameters. Using exact diagonalization we determine this range of parameters for the hard-core case and then we extend our …

Background: The Escarval-Risk study aims to validate cardiovascular risk scales in patients with hypertension, diabetes or dyslipidemia living in the Valencia Community, a European Mediterranean region, based on data from an electronic health recording system comparing predicted events with observed during 5 years follow-up study. Methods/Design. A cohort prospective 5 years follow-up study has been designed including 25000 patients with hypertension, diabetes and/or dyslipidemia attended in usual clinical practice. All information is registered in a unique electronic health recording system (ABUCASIS) that is the usual way to register clinical practice in the Valencian Health System (primary and secondary care). The …

Hepatitis C Virus Infection Assessment Among Chronic Hemodialysis Patients In Al-Kadhmiya Teaching Hospital, Jawad K. Mnuti, Fadhil A. Al- Abbudi

Iraqi Postgraduate Medical Journal

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been recognized as an emerging problem in dialysis patients, and viral hepatitis remains a major hazard for both patients and medical staff of hemodialysis (HD) units. The reported yearly incidence of anti-HCV antibody worldwide between HD patients ranges from 10.5% to 24%, while the prevalence of anti-HCV antibody among dialysis patients varies in different countries (5-85%) worldwide, and may exceed 95% in the Middle East OBJECTIVE: To asses the prevalence of anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) among the hemodialysis unit in ALKadhmiya Teaching Hospital and to identify the risk factors of infection in relation …

Prosthesis-Patient Mismatches In Aortic Valve Replacement A Study In Ibn Al-Bitar Hospital For Cardiac Surgery, Darya Akram Faqe Mahmood

Iraqi Postgraduate Medical Journal

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Use of new generation small prostheses for aortic valve replacement has decreased the need for annular enlargement and rarely increased the incidence of severe patient-prosthesis mismatch; OBJECTIVE: Of this study is to evaluate the impact of using this type of prosthesis (St.Jude. HP, Regent) on operative mortality. PATINETS & METHODS: We reviewed our experience (59) consecutive patients who had isolated and combined aortic valve replacement in our hospital between February 2001 and February 2007. RESULTS: The mean age was 36, and 60 % of patients were female.valvular disease was primarily pure aortic regurgitation 47%, combined aortic disease 29% …
