Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) are increasingly adopted in several domains where reliability is fundamental, such as self-driving cars and autonomous systems. Unfortunately, GPU devices have been shown to have a high error rate, while the constraints imposed by real-time safety-critical applications make traditional (and costly) replication-based hardening solutions inadequate. This work proposes an effective methodology to identify the architectural vulnerable sites in GPUs modules, i.e., the locations ...

The aim of the present study was to characterize the floristic-structural heterogeneity of the tree species in an alluvial forest remnant considering three sectors: forest-river edge, forest interior and forest/non-forest matrix edge. Forty-eight plots of 200 m 2 were allocated and all tree individuals with a diameter at breast height (dbh) equal to or greater than 5 cm were measured and identified. Data was analyzed by Shannon's diversity index, Pielou evenness and phytosociological descriptors. ...

Although advanced age, male sex, and some comorbidities impact the clinical course of COVID-19, these factors only partially explain the inter-individual variability in disease severity. Some studies have shown that genetic polymorphisms contribute to COVID-19 severity; however, the results are inconclusive. Thus, we investigated the association between polymorphisms in ACE1, ACE2, DPP9, IFIH1, IFNAR2, IFNL4, TLR3, TMPRSS2, and TYK2 and the clinical course of COVID-19. A total of 694 patients with ...

The yield and protein content of soybean seeds are challenging traits for breeding since they have a negative correlation. To solve this issue, it is essential to understand the protein transport in soybean seeds. Here we performed an analysis of 3 datasets containing transcriptional data from soybean seeds and pods, without any treatment, aiming to select genes related to the transport of organic nitrogen compounds. We identified 69 transporters, and among them, seven were chosen to be validated ...

The ticks Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus and Haemaphysalis longicornis are blood-sucking ectoparasites of bovines, causing serious damages to the livestock production. The main control method for these ticks is based on acaricides. However, the use of vaccines has been studied as a promising control strategy. Calreticulin (CRT) is a multifunctional, predominantly intracellular protein present in almost all cells of animals. The secretion of CRT during feeding might be linked to the modulation ...
