Activation of Aspen Wood with Carbon Dioxide and Phosphoric Acid for Removal of Total Organic Carbon from Oil Sands Produced Water: Increasing the Yield with Bio-Oil Recycling by Hill, Josephine M., Veksha, Andrei, Bhuiyan, Tazul I.

“…A method to increase the yield when using CO2 activation was proposed and consisted of recycling bio-oil produced from previous runs to the aspen wood feed, followed by either KOH addition (0.48%) or air pretreatment (220 °C for 3 h) before pyrolysis and activation. …”

The discrete-time second-best dynamic road pricing scheme by Han, Linghui, Wang, David Zhi Wei, Zhu, Chengjuan

“…The equilibrium can be looked as a traffic state desired by traffic management authorities. However, when the traffic system has multiple equilibria if the initial traffic state falls beyond the attraction domain, it may not converge to the desired equilibrium under the pricing based on the traffic equilibrium through a day-to-day adjustment process (Bie and Lo, 2010). …”

A mixing vector based an affine combination of two adaptive filters for sensor array beamforming by Lu, S. T., Sun, J. P., Wang, G. H., Lu, Yilong.

“…Moreover, the proposed methods in application of beamforming for interference mitigation of antenna array are simulated based space-time processing technique. When compared to existing methods, the proposed approach exhibits faster convergence rate and higher output signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR). …”

Overcoming endurance issue : UAV-enabled communications with proactive caching by Xu, Xiaoli, Zeng, Yong, Guan, Yong Liang, Zhang, Rui

“…With the proposed scheme, at the beginning of each operation period, the UAV pro-actively transmits the files to a subset of selected GNs that cooperatively cache all the files. As a result, when requested, a file can be retrieved by each GN either directly from its local cache or from its nearest neighbor that has cached the file via device-to-device communications. …”

An Energy-Efficient Digital ReRAM-Crossbar-Based CNN With Bitwise Parallelism by Ni, Leibin, Liu, Zichuan, Yu, Hao, Joshi, Rajiv V.

“…In this paper, we present a resistive random access memory (ReRAM)-accelerated CNN that can achieve significantly higher throughput and energy efficiency when the CNN is trained with binary constraints on both weights and activations, and is further mapped on a digital ReRAM-crossbar. …”

Global signal of top-down control of terrestrial plant communities by herbivores by Jia, Shihong, Wang, Xugao, Yuan, Zuoqiang, Lin, Fei, Ye, Ji, Hao, Zhanqing, Luskin, Matthew Scott

“…Consistent with top-down predictions, we found that herbivores significantly reduced plant abundance, biomass, survival, and reproduction (all P < 0.01) and increased species evenness but not richness (P = 0.06 and P = 0.59, respectively). However, when examining patterns in the strength of top-down effects, with few exceptions, we were unable to detect significantly different effect sizes among biomes, based on local site characteristics (climate or productivity) or study characteristics (study duration or exclosure size). …”

“A wound that has been festering since 2007”: The Burma/Myanmar naming controversy and the problem of rarely challenged assumptions on Wikipedia by Luyt, Brendan

“…Originality/value: The study clearly shows how editors tend to uncritically reproduce the dominant assumptions of their societies. When combined with positivist readings of NPOV policy, this has grave implications for Wikipedia’s potential to open up representation to a wider set of knowledge producers and perspectives. …”

ASIC-based design of NMR system health monitor for mission/safety–critical applications by Balasubramanian, Parvathavarthini

“…In this context, this article presents the novel design of a generic NMR system health monitor which features: (i) early fault warning logic, that is activated upon the production of a conflicting result by even one output of any arbitrary function module, and (ii) error signalling logic, which signals an error when the number of faulty function modules unfortunately attains a majority and the system outputs may no more be reliable. …”
