Staphylococci of the Skin: Consequences for Host Health by Khadka, Veda D.

“…On healthy adults with an intact skin barrier, the skin microbiome is relatively diverse and stable. When the skin barrier is disrupted – either by daily stressors or genetic factors – the composition of the microbiome abruptly shifts to a less diverse state with an abundance of Staphylococci. …”

Efficient architectures for computation of binary logarithm by Low, Joshua Yung Lih

“…As a result, it enhances the effectiveness of the piecewise linear approximation for improving the accuracy. When a newly proposed 4-region piecewise linear approximation is developed for the compressed range, the maximum absolute error and maximum absolute error percentage are reduced by 15.0% and 25.0% respectively when compared to the best existing results. …”
