A Decade of Reoccurring Software Weaknesses

June 24, 2021
Author(s)
Assane Gueye, Carlos Galhardo, Irena Bojanova, Peter Mell
The Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) community publishes an aggregate metric to calculate the 'Most Dangerous Software Errors.' However, the used equation highly biases frequency and almost ignores exploitability and impact. We provide a metric to

Accurate localization microscopy by intrinsic aberration calibration

June 24, 2021
Author(s)
Craig Copeland, Craig McGray, Robert Ilic, Jon Geist, Samuel Stavis
A standard paradigm of localization microscopy involves extension from two to three dimensions by engineering information into emitter images, and approximation of errors resulting from the field dependence of optical aberrations. We invert this standard

June 24, 2021
Author(s)
Eric J. Marksz, Aaron Hagerstrom, Jasper A. Drisko, James Booth, Nate Orloff, Xiaohang Zhang, Naila Al Hasan, Justin Pearson, Ichiro Takeuchi
Next-generation millimeter-wave (> 30 GHz) telecommunications electronics must be compact, energy efficient, and have good thermal management. Tunable materials may play a role in meeting these requirements for millimeter-wave front-ends, but there are few

DeepNetQoE: Self-adaptive QoE Optimization Framework of Deep Networks

June 24, 2021
Author(s)

Future advances in deep learning and its impact on the development of artificial intelligence (AI) in all fields depends heavily on data size and computational power. Sacrificing massive computing resources in exchange for better precision rates of the

DNA glycosylase deficiency leads to decreased severity of lupus in the Polb-Y265C mouse model

June 24, 2021
Author(s)
Sesha Paluri, Matthew Burak, Alireza Senenjani, Kelly Carufe, Kaylin Clairmont, Isabel Alvarado-Cruz, Rithy Meas, Michael Kashgarian, Caroline Zeiss, Stephen Maher, Alfred Bothwell, Erdem Coskun, Melis Kant, Pawel Jaruga, Miral M. Dizdar, R S. Lloyd, Joann B. Sweasy
The Polb gene encodes DNA polymerase beta (Pol β), a DNA polymerase that functions in base excision repair (BER) and microhomology-mediated end-joining. The Pol β-Y265C protein exhibits low catalytic activity and fidelity, and is also deficient in

A Prototype of a Standard Spreadability Tester for Additive Manufacturing

June 23, 2021
Author(s)
Justin G. Whiting, Vipin Tondare, Shawn P. Moylan, Alkan Donmez
We describe a simple device called Standard Spreadability Tester (SST). The idea behind the SST is that instead of trying to predict how a powder will spread using the powder's intrinsic properties (e.g., PSD, morphology, surface, and chemical makeup) or

By employing quasi-elastic neutron scattering, we studied the atomic-scale relaxation dynamics and transport mechanism of La 50Ni 15Al 35 and Ce 69Cu 20Al 10Nb 1 Studied by Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering metallic glass melts in the temperature range of

Implementation and Evaluation of a WLAN IEEE 802.11ay Model in Network Simulator ns-3

June 23, 2021
Author(s)
Hany Assasa, Nina Grosheva, Tanguy Ropitault, Steve Blandino, Nada T. Golmie, Joerg Widmer
The IEEE Task Group ay (TGay) has recently defined new physical and medium access control specifications to design the next generation wireless standard in the 60 GHz band, the so-called IEEE 802.11ay. Build upon its 802.11ad predecessor, IEEE 802.11ay

NetSimulyzer: a 3D Network Simulation Analyzer for ns-3

June 23, 2021
Author(s)
Evan Black, Samantha Gamboa Quintiliani, Richard A. Rouil
The increased complexity of network protocols and scenarios simulated using ns-3 is making the verification of simulation correctness and the analysis of simulation outputs a challenging task. In this paper, we present a new and flexible visualization tool

Operads for complex system design specification, analysis and synthesis

June 23, 2021
Author(s)
Spencer Breiner, Eswaran Subrahmanian, John Dusel, John Foley
As the complexity and heterogeneity of a system grows, the challenge of specifying, documenting and synthesizing correct, machine readable designs increases dramatically. Separation of the system into manageable parts is needed to support analysis at

Comprehensive Analysis of Tryptic Peptides Arising from Disulfide Linkages in NISTmAb and Their Use for Developing a Mass Spectral Library

June 22, 2021
Author(s)
Qian Dong, Xinjian Yan, Yuxue Liang, Sanford Markey, Sergey L. Sheetlin, Concepcion Remoroza, William E. Wallace, Stephen Stein
This work presents methods for identifying and then creating a mass spectral library for disulfide-linked peptides originating from the NISTmAb. Analysis involved both partially- reduced and non-reduced proteins under neutral and weakly basic conditions

Velocity and Temperature Structure of Medium-Scale Pool Fires
