The principle of operation of such resonative sensors is based on monitoring the spectrum dependence of the resonator subject to minute variation in its…
People with Type 1 diabetes don't make insulin — a hormone that regulates blood glucose, or sugar. Those with Type 2 diabetes can't use insulin effectively….
Asegun Henry wants to avert the worst effects of climate change by finding new forms of renewable energy and improving the materials that contribute to energy…
However, solar cells do not convert all light to power equally, which has inspired a joint industry-academia effort to develop a potentially game-changing…
Our mouth contains many micro-organisms, including bacterial and fungal pathogens. On traditional dental implants, these pathogens can quickly form a so-called…
Pulsars are a type of neutron star that are born in supernova explosions when massive stars collapse. Discovered initially by lighthouse-like beams of radio…
Cracks sank the 'unsinkable' Titanic; decrease the performance of touchscreens and erode teeth. We are familiar with cracks in big or small three-dimensional…
Optimised exhaust air purification for mechanical-biological waste treatment
“The German contribution in the international consortium focuses on data analysis”, says Prof. Dr. Jochen Garcke, Head of Department “Numerical Data-Based…
The experimental setting is not entirely unlike the popular children’s party game Topfschlagen (“Hit the Pot!”): one child is blindfolded and has to find a…
From time to time one has notice from a single newly discovered species from the remote depth of oceans or of rain forests. However, how badly we know the life…
Leukaemia stem cells: they have the ability to renew themselves and are resistant to most current, existing cancer therapies (chemotherapy, radiation, targeted…
Yersiniae cause severe intestinal infections. Studies using Yersinia pseudotuberculosis as a model organism aim to elucidate the infection mechanisms of these…
We present a new algorithm for the detection of infinite loop bugs in software. Source code is not needed. The algorithm is based on autocorrelation of a program executions branch target address sequence. We describe the implementation of the algorithm in a dynamic binary instrumentation tool; the result is light-weight enough to be applied continuously at runtime. Functionality of the tool is
evaluated with infinite loop bug test cases from the Juliet test suite for program analyzers. Applicability of the algorithm to production software is demonstrated by using the tool to detect previously known infinite loop bugs in cgit, Avahi and PHP.
While superconductivity and magnetism are generally believed to be mutually exclusive, surprisingly, in this new material, superconducting correlations…
Studying properties of fundamental particles in condensed matter systems is a promising approach to quantum field theory. Quasiparticles offer the opportunity…
