Show moreA bifunctional ligand that can rapidly form a stable complex with a metal while conjugated to a tumor-targeting moiety is essential for targeted therapy and imaging of cancer. New bifunctional chelators in the NETA and DEPA series were developed for targeted radiation cancer therapy. The chelators showed rapid complexation kinetics with 90Y and 177Lu, and the corresponding radiolabeled complexes were stable in vitro and in vivo. Trastuzumab, Panitumumab, and c(RGDyK) conjugates (targeting HER-2, HER-1, and integrin αvβ3, respectively) of the novel bifunctional ligands were prepared. The conjugates displayed fast complexation kinetics with 90Y, 177Lu, and 205/6Bi, and the antibody and peptide conjugates labeled with 90Y, 177Lu, or 205/6Bi exhibited excellent stability and tumor targeting in mice bearing human colorectal cancer (LS-174T). Transferrin (Tf) and bile acid (BA) conjugates of novel chelators in the NE3TA series were prepared for targeted iron chelation therapy (ICT) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging applications of cancer. Tf and BA conjugates of NE3TA had high cytotoxicity on HeLa, HT29, and PC3 cancer cells. The Tf-N-NE3TA and BA-N-NE3TA also displayed rapid complexation kinetics with 64Cu, and the Tf and BA conjugates of N-NE3TA labeled with 64Cu were stable and had high cellular uptake in HeLa and PC3 cancer cells. Tf-N-NE3TA was further conjugated with a fluorescence dye (Cy5.5) to develop targeted theranostic agent of cancer. Tf-N-NE3TA-Cy5.5 showed great radiolabeling efficiency with 64Cu, and the Tf-N-NE3TA-Cy5.5 labeled with 64Cu exhibited high cellular uptake in HeLa, HT29, and PC3 cancer cells. In summary, we have developed new bifunctional ligands having excellent chelation chemistry of 90Y, 177Lu, 205/6Bi, and 64Cu, and the tumor-specific antibody and peptide conjugates of the novel bifunctional chelators have a great potential for targeted cancer therapy and imaging as well as theranostic applications of cancer.

Show moreReliability and energy are two of the top major concerns in the development of today's supercomputers. To build a powerful machine while at the same time satisfying reliability requirement and energy constraint, HPC scientists continue to seek a better understanding of system and component behaviors. Toward this end, modern systems are deployed with various monitoring and logging tools to track reliability and energy data during system operations. Since these data contain important information about system reliability and energy, they are valuable resources for understanding system behaviors. However, as system scale and complexity continue to grow, the process of collecting system data to extracting meaningful knowledge out of overwhelming reliability and energy data faces a number of key challenges. To address these challenges, my work consists of three parts, including data preprocessing, data analysis and advanced modeling.

Show moreMuch information available on the Web is in video format. The problem with this medium is users cannot comment on particular scenes within the videos and there is no method of searching for specific content within the videos. The team proposes to develop a system that will allow users to make fine-grained comments on scenes within the video and then to use these comments to aid in search within videos.

Show moreThis is a design for a new research station in Antarctica that also includes Antarctica's first hotel as part of the station. The emphasis is on a modular design that is easily expandable and reconfigurable in order to meet the needs of future Antarctic research and tourism demands. The end result of the project is a single 16 minute animation to demonstrate life at the station both as a daily routine and a seasonal routine, as well as the logistics of shipping and constructing the station in Antarctica.

Show moreThis project is a mixed-use high rise which will incorporate the program of the newly constructed high rise buildings of retail, hotel, and condominiums with the program of the existing Powerhouse Arts District, art gallery, auction house, art work spaces, and artist lofts. In order for this combination of program to occur and to retain developer interest in this high rise tower, relationships between the program were investigated. Typical “inefficient” or unleasable spaces in a traditional high rise were used as opportunities to incorporate these art district programs into the site. Artist lofts were design on the perimeter of the mechanical floors to take advantage of double height spaces as well as privacy. Art galleries, and an auction house was incorporated on the lower service level in order to take advantage of loading/unloading access. Art work spaces were designed around program which required column free spacing and a sunken art plaza was designed to add additional frontage to different retail and art programs located below grade. The design of both the high rise and its program intends to restore the deteriorating identity of the Powerhouse Arts District in Jersey City, NJ.

Show moreThe production of weak vector bosons in association with jets and their properties are intensively studied using proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector. In this proceedings, we will show the cross section measurement of the electroweak production of a Z boson in association with 2 jets at √s = 8 TeV, including a new data-driven approach and studies on the hadronic activity in the region between the two tagging jets. The azimuthal correlations and event shapes in Z + jets events at √s= 7 TeV are also presented.

Show moreA knowledge-based system (KBS) was designed for automated system identification, process monitoring, and diagnosis of sensor faults. The real-time KBS consists of a supervisory system using G2 KBS development software linked with external statistical modules for system identification and sensor fault diagnosis. The various statistical techniques were prototyped in MATLAB, converted to ANSI C code, and linked with the G2 Standard Interface. The KBS automatically performs all operations of data collection, identification, monitoring, and sensor fault diagnosis with little or no input from the user. Navigation throughout the KBS is via menu buttons on each user-accessible screen. Selected process variables are displayed on charts showing the history of the variables over a period of time. Multivariate statistical tests and contribution plots are also shown graphically. The KBS was evaluated using simulation studies with a polymerization reactor through a nonlinear dynamic model. Both normal operation conditions as well as conditions of process disturbances were observed to evaluate the KBS performance. Specific user-defined disturbances were added to the simulation, and the KBS correctly diagnosed both process and sensor faults when present.

Show moreReal-time supervision of batch operations during the progress of a batch run offers many advantages over end-of-batch quality control. Process monitoring, quality estimation, and fault diagnosis activities are automated and supervised by embedding them into a real-time knowledge-based system (RTKBS). Interpretation of multivariate charts is also automated through a generic rule-base for efficient alarm handling and fault diagnosis. Multivariate statistical techniques such as multiway partial least squares (MPLS) provide a powerful modeling, monitoring, and supervision framework. Online process monitoring techniques are developed and extended to include predictions of end-of-batch quality measurements during the progress of a batch run. The integrated RTKBS and the implementation of MPLS-based process monitoring and quality control are illustrated using a fed-batch penicillin production benchmark process simulator.

Show moreThe preprint of a published article dealing with the effect of allocating Federal Depositories by Congressional district. Conclusions drawn include the fact that due to redistricting that occurs after each decennial census, over time some districts may have within their boundaries a greater number than the two depositories that Congressional district allocation was intended to produce. Likewise, over time shifting boundaries of districts have created districts that have no depositories whatsoever.

Show moreIt is shown that in stochastic QCD a vacuum color quark is confined due to the interaction with environment, chaotic dynamics of Yang-Mills-Higgsfields, decoherence of pure color state into mixed white (colorless) state and also squeezed, and entangled states appearance. Critical energy of order-chaos transition is obtained which depends on Higgs boson mass. Stochasticity is the root of color confinement disappearing of color at confinement radius.
