The rapid increase in the use of microprocessor-based systems in critical areas, where failures imply risks to human lives, to the environment or to expensive equipment, significantly increased the need for dependable systems, able to detect, tolerate and eventually correct faults. The verification and validation of such systems is frequently performed via fault injection, using various forms and techniques. However, as electronic devices get smaller and more complex, controllability and observability ...

Abstract Mitophagy is essential to maintain mitochondrial function and prevent diseases. It activates upon mitochondria depolarization, which causes PINK1 stabilization on the mitochondrial outer membrane. Strikingly, a number of conditions, including mitochondrial protein misfolding, can induce mitophagy without a loss in membrane potential. The underlying molecular details remain unclear. Here, we report that a loss of mitochondrial protein import, mediated by the pre-sequence translocase-associated ...

A detailed spectroscopic analysis of Eu3+ implanted and annealed AlN nanowires (NWs) grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy is presented by using micro-Raman, temperature-dependent steady-state photoluminescence, and time-resolved photoluminescence. Two different annealing temperatures (1000 °C and 1200 °C) were used. Such annealing conditions achieved a recovery of the original AlN crystalline structure as confirmed by Raman analysis. For both samples, the red Eu3+ intra-4f 6 luminescence ...

Dynamically reconfigurable systems have benefited from a new class of FPGAs recently introduced into the market, which allow partial and dynamic reconfiguration at run-time, enabling multiple independent functions from different applications to share the same device, swapping resources as needed. When the sequence of tasks to be performed is not predictable, resource allocation decisions have to be made on-line, fragmenting the FPGA logic space. A rearrangement may be necessary to get enough contiguous ...

This work presents the development of a bioelectrode based on catalase enzyme and a novel protic ionic liquid, pentaethylenehexammonium acetate (PEHAA), on a glassy carbon surface. PEHAA was synthesized for the first time and its structure was confirmed by FTIR and NMR. Viscosity and conductivity of PEHAA aqueous mixtures were measured and a Walden plot was used to analyze PEHAA ionicity. The bioelectrode was constructed using layer by layer (LBL) and electrochemical deposition (ECD) techniques. The ...

Dynamically reconfigurable SRAM-based field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) enable the implementation of reconfigurable computing systems where several applications may be run simultaneously, sharing the available resources according to their own immediate functional requirements. To exclude malfunctioning due to faulty elements, the reliability of all FPGA resources must be guaranteed. Since resource allocation takes place asynchronously, an online structural test scheme is the only way of ensuring reliable ...

Lysosomal α-galactosidase A (α-Gal) is the enzyme deficient in Fabry disease (FD), an X-linked glycosphingolipidosis caused by pathogenic mutations affecting the GLA gene. The early-onset, multi-systemic FD classical phenotype is associated with absent or severe enzyme deficiency, as measured by in vitro assays, but patients with higher levels of residual α-Gal activity may have later-onset, more organ-restricted clinical presentations. A change in the codon 118 of the wild-type α-Gal sequence, replacing ...

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is the current standard state‐of‐the‐art transparent conductive oxide (TCO), given its remarkable optical and electrical properties. However, the scarcity of indium carries an important drawback for the long‐term application due to its intensive use in many optoelectronic devices such as displays, solar cells, and interactive systems. Zinc oxide‐based TCOs can be a cost‐effective and viable alternative, but the limitations imposed by their transmittance versus resistivity tradeoff ...
