    Dr. Gordon H. Chang will speak on the history of anti-Asian violence in America on April 27, 2023, at 1:00 EDT for one hour. Dr. Chang recently stepped down as the Senior Associate Vice Provost for Under Graduate Education at Stanford and is a professor of history. He is also the Olive H. Palmer Professor in Humanities at Stanford University. He is the author of nine books, primarily on U.S. China relations and the Asian-American experience

    Measuring and analyzing German and Spanish customer satisfaction of using the iPhone 4S Mobile Cloud service

    This paper presents the customer satisfaction analysis for measuring popularity in the Mobile Cloud, which is an emerging area in the Cloud and Big Data Computing. Organizational Sustainability Modeling (OSM) is the proposed method used in this research. The twelve-month of German and Spanish consumer data are used for the analysis to investigate the return and risk status associated with the ratings of customer satisfaction in the iPhone 4S Mobile Cloud services. Results show that there is a decline in the satisfaction ratings in Germany and Spain due to economic downturn and competitions in the market, which support our hypothesis. Key outputs have been explained and they confirm that all analysis and interpretations fulfill the criteria for OSM. The use of statistical and visualization method proposed by OSM can expose unexploited data and allows the stakeholders to understand the status of return and risk of their Cloud strategies easier than the use of other data analysis

    Comparison of the Reactivities and Selectivities of Group9 [Cp*M-III] Catalysts in C-H Functionalization Reactions

    No full text
    Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*)-based Group9 metal (Co, Rh, or Ir) catalysts have emerged as powerful tools for C-H functionalization reactions. Whilst a diverse range of organic transformations have been developed by using [Cp*M-III] catalysts, they have often exhibited orthogonal reactivities and varied selectivities that depended on the choice of the central metal atom. An understanding of the physicochemical properties of the metals, as well as of their reaction mechanisms, has led to significant expansion of the synthetic scope of C-H functionalization reactions. This Focus Review summarizes and discusses the comparative catalytic reactivities and selectivities of the [Cp*M-III] catalysts, with an emphasis on metal-dependent pathway-switching by considering the mechanistic rationale ⓒ 2018 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    On the Studies of Detrusor-Sphincter Synergia of Wistar Rats via Karhunen-Loève Expansion

    Full text link
    [[abstract]]In normal Wistar rats, we have found that the voiding of the bladder has a synergic cooperation between the detrusor and the sphincter. On the contrary, the suprasacral spinal cord injured (SCI) rats usually exhibit dyssynergic contractions of the bladder and the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In this study, the cystometrograms (CMG) of the detrusor and the electromyograms (EMG) of the EUS of intact and SCI female Wistar rats are used to investigate the eigenmodes of synergic cooperation during micturition via Karhunen-Loève expansion (KLE). Here we show that the three different phases of urination of intact rats: initial, bursting and relaxation phase, have different number of eigenmodes. The SCI rats are also investigated with the KLE method. Results have indicated that our understanding of micturition mechanism of Wistar rats can be mightily improved.[[fileno]]2030149010046[[department]]電機工程學

    Brain Segmentation ? A Case study of Biomedical Cloud Computing for Education and Research

    No full text
    Medical imaging is widely adopted in Hospitals and medical institutes, and new ways to improve existing medical imaging services are regularly exploited. This paper describes the adoption of Cloud Computing is useful for medical education and research, and describes the methodology, results and lesson learned. A working Bioinformatics Cloud platform can demonstrate computation and visualisation of brain imaging. The aim is to study segmentation of brains, which divides the brain into ten major regions. The Cloud platform has these two functions: (i) it can highlight each region for ten different segments; and (ii) it can adjust intensity of segmentation to allow basic study of brain medicine. Two types of benefits are reported as follows. Firstly, all the medical student participants are reported to have 20% improvement in their learning satisfaction. Secondly, 100% of volunteer participants are reported to have positive learning experience
