Ultraviolet (UV) light emitting diodes (LEDs) are expected to find applications for solid-state lighting, water and air purification, bio-agent detection, and biological fluorescence experiments. For identifying miniscule amounts of hazardous biological pathogens and for the detection of fluorescence from protein molecules excited with the UV light (200-300nm) the light source must exhibit low noise and high stability over tens of minutes. The authors report on the low frequency fluctuations of the current and light intensity of SET UVTOPreg LEDs (fabricated by SET, Inc.) with wavelengths ranging from 265nm to 340nm

The advent of network coding promises to change many aspects of networking. Network coding moves away from the classical approach of networking, which treats networks as akin to physical transportation systems. We overview some of the main features of network coding that are most relevant to wireless networks. In particular, we discuss the fact that random distributed network coding is asymptotically optimal for wireless networks with and without packet erasures. These results are extremely general and allow packet loss correlation, such as may occur in fading wireless channels. The coded network lends itself, for multicast connections, to a cost optimization which not only outperforms traditional routing tree-based approaches, but also lends itself to a distributed implementation and to a dynamic implementation when changing conditions, such as mobility, arise. We illustrate the performance of such optimization methods for energy efficiency in wireless networks and propose some new directions for research in the area.

Low frequency fluctuations in light intensity of 340 nm and 280 nm GaN -based light emitting diodes (LEDs) are compared with noise properties of other commercially available UV and visible wavelength LEDs and halogen lamps. At low frequencies, LEDs can exhibit lower levels of noise than halogen lamps. An LED noise quality factor β is estimated for the UV LEDs.

We present ViMPIOS, a novel MPI-IO implementation based on ViPIOS, the Vienna Parallel Input Output System. ViMPIOS inherits the defining characteristics of ViPIOS, which makes it a client-server based system focusing on cluster architectures. ViMPIOS stands out from all other MPI-IO implementations by its "truly" portable design, which allows not only applications to be transferred between parallel architectures easily but also to keep their original performance characteristics on the new platform as far as possible. This is kept by the "smart" AI-blackboard module of ViPIOS, which is responsible for an appropriate data layout. Specifically in this paper we concentrate on the algorithm, which maps MPI-IO data structures on respective ViPIOS structures, and thus allows to exploit the ViPIOS properties.
In this paper we present a knowledge base for the generation and optimization of query execution plans for parallel database systems. This knowledge base builds the basis of a novel extended blackboard architecture fo...
