The liquid-crystal spatial light modulators (SLMs), are proving to be an important tool for research aimed at emulation of atmospheric turbulence. Emulating turbulence is necessary for testing the performance of adaptive-optics system in a controlled environment. SLMs have the ability to compensate for hundreds of waves of aberration through the use of modulo 2π operation. Thus, a device with only slightly more than one wave of phase stroke can emulate large phase of strokes. Optical modulation is not directly dependent on the back-plane used, but instead on the liquid-crystal and the liquid-crystal layer thickness, the same backplane can be used for many application. This modular design makes SLMs versatile across a wide range of technologies such as optical correlators, beamsteerers, optical trapping, and many more.

The article provides information on a workshop on the development of imaging systems for cancer prevention and preemption convened by the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cancer Imaging program held in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Doctor Katherine Ferrara of the University of California discussed the function of ultrasound in breast tumor imaging. Ways to close the gap between development and application of imaging approaches were tackled in a roundtable discussion on cervix and skin cancer.

An online auction is simply defined as a virtual marketplace hosted on the Internet to match buyers and sellers of goods around the globe regardless of the physical limitations of traditional auctions such as geography, presence, time, and space. Online auctions operate different protocols including English, Dutch, First-Price Sealed Bid and Vickrey with different properties for each one of these protocols. This paper reviews the different types of auctions and the strategies proposed in support of buyers and sellers participating in these auctions. Seller strategies for auctions that adopt protocols other than English are then presented. A scheme that integrates a number of strategies suitable for one of the auction types, namely the Dutch auction, is then developed and discussed

Selecting optimum communication technology for a distributed workgroup such as an electric supply cooperative with a number of sub-stations is a challenge. A quantitative approach to evaluate the various communication technologies based on multicriteria is needed to select optimum communication technology. An electric cooperative in Minnesota was used for a case study and the various communication technologies used (frame relay, fiber optic etc) were investigated. Analytical Hierarchy Process for multicriterion was used to select optimum communication technologies between the sub-stations. The analysis showed that for sub-stations within 10 miles of the hub fiber optic was the most preferred form of communication technology. For distances over 10 miles satellite system was the preferred communication technology. Selection of appropriate communication technology improves the efficiency of the distributed workgroup. Substantial savings in communication costs can be achieved by optimizing the communication technology system.
