Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) technology is increasingly used for real-time monitoring applications, especially line outage detection and identification (D&I) in the power system. Current outage D&I schemes either assume a full PMU deployment or a partial deployment with fixed PMU placement. However, the placement of the PMUs has a fundamental impact on the effectiveness of the D&I scheme. Building on a dynamic relationship between the substation voltage phase angle and active power, we formulated the optimal PMU placement problem for outage D&I as an optimization problem readily solvable by any heuristic algorithm. We tested the formulation using a genetic algorithm and simulated outages of IEEE 39 bus system. The optimal placement found produces a better D&I result of single-line outages than a randomly scattered, tree-like, and degree-based placements.

Nowadays AM is a rapidly growing and emerging discipline in manufacturing, as well as AI is in informational applications. Both are related to logistical and self-referential/-copying concepts which make them scalable. What is in AM osmotic mass production spreading is in AI-related Cyber-Physical systems (CPS) the osmotic computational approach. AI-AM self-propagatedly framed is itself an emerging field, which can be logically or systematically unified. The paper investigates firstly recent developments in the field of the AM process flow and how it is related to AI applications. The result is a list of logistical, organisational, and industrial process steps as well as modern and future AI-AM applications. The extended approach then gives prospect to a meta-perspectively embedded osmotic decentralized computing, as well as an osmotic manufacturing paradigm, which utilizes glocal functions, concerning local production as well as global distributed material and information transport nets and their connection graphs.

We developed alaboratory-scale testbed to simulate atmospheric turbulence effectsand to investigate the role of turbulence on the quantum informationcontent of a free-space qubit transport. We report the development,characterization, and calibration of the testbed for the statisticalparameters of the turbulence employing two phase screens, whichproduced weak to strong turbulence replicating long distances in theatmosphere for single photon propagation. By taking a long-exposureimage of the point-spread function of a pinhole and analyzing theassociated modulation transfer function, we measured a $D/{r_0}$ ranging from 1.04 to 23.27. Usingirradiance fluctuations, we measured an on-axis scintillation indexranging from 0.25 to 2.02. The TASQ was designed to integrate abiphoton source, along with a single photon detection module to testthe effect of turbulence on qubit transport. The calibrated setup willprovide critical data for field experiments involving long-distancequantum networks.

Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is an FDA approved treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infections, and is being explored for other clinical applications, from alleviating digestive and neurological disorders, to priming the microbiome for cancer treatment, and restoring microbiomes impacted by cancer treatment. Quantifying the extent of engraftment following an FMT is important in determining if a recipient didn’t respond because the engrafted microbiome didn’t produce the desired outcomes (a successful FMT, but negative treatment outcome), or the microbiome didn’t engraft (an unsuccessful FMT and negative treatment outcome). The lack of a consistent methodology for quantifying FMT engraftment extent hinders the assessment of FMT success and its relation to clinical outcomes, and presents challenges for comparing FMT results and protocols across studies. Here we review 46 studies of FMT in humans and model organisms and group their approaches for assessing the extent to which an FMT engrafts into three criteria: 1) Chimeric Asymmetric Community Coalescence investigates microbiome shifts following FMT engraftment using methods such as alpha diversity comparisons, beta diversity comparisons, and microbiome source tracking. 2) Donated Microbiome Indicator Features tracks donated microbiome features (e.g., amplicon sequence variants or species of interest) as a signal of engraftment with methods such as differential abundance testing based on the current sample collection, or tracking changes in feature abundances that have been previously identified (e.g., from FMT or disease-relevant literature). 3) Temporal Stability examines how resistant post-FMT recipient’s microbiomes are to reverting back to their baseline microbiome. Individually, these criteria each highlight a critical aspect of microbiome engraftment;investigated together, however, they provide a clearer assessment of microbiome engraftment. We discuss the pros and cons of each of these criteria,
