Memristor circuit investigation through a new tutorial toolbox
No full textThis paper presents a new tutorial toolbox for exploration of memristor circuits, developed in the MATLAB and Simulink environments. It is aimed at students, researchers, designers and anybody interested in memristors and their applications. The toolbox allows users to build and simulate memristor circuits, and some novel results obtained through use of the toolbox are presented
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Output-jitter performance of second-order digital bang-bang phase-locked loops with nonaccumulative reference clock jitter
No full textBang-bang phase-locked loops (BBPLLs) are inherently nonlinear systems due to the binary phase detector (BPD). While they are typically used for clock and data recovery, the ongoing trend toward digital loop implementations has resulted in several digital BBPLLs (DBBPLLs) suitable for frequency synthesis. This brief investigates the effect of nonaccumulative reference clock jitter (due to white phase noise) in second-order DBBPLLs, comparing the output jitter with that of first-order DBBPLLs. For small clock jitter, the nonlinear loop behavior is modeled as a two-dimensional Markov chain, and the output jitter is smaller than but close to that of a first order loop. For large clock jitter, the BPD nonlinearity is linearized, and the output jitter is larger than that of a first order loop; it is proportional to clock jitter and inversely proportional to the square root of the stability factor—the ratio of the proportional path gain to the integral-path gain of the digital loop filter.Science Foundation Irelandti, ke, ab, li - TS 18.04.1
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
The impact of the North Atlantic Oscillation on the uptake and accumulation of anthropogenic CO2 by North Atlantic Ocean mode waters

The definitive version was published in Global Biogeochemical Cycles 25 (2011): GB3022, doi:10.1029/2010GB003892.The North Atlantic Ocean accounts for about 25% of the global oceanic anthropogenic carbon sink. This basin experiences significant interannual variability primarily driven by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). A suite of biogeochemical model simulations is used to analyze the impact of interannual variability on the uptake and storage of contemporary and anthropogenic carbon (Canthro) in the North Atlantic Ocean. Greater winter mixing during positive NAO years results in increased mode water formation and subsequent increases in subtropical and subpolar Canthro inventories. Our analysis suggests that changes in mode water Canthro inventories are primarily due to changes in water mass volumes driven by variations in water mass transformation rates rather than local air-sea CO2 exchange. This suggests that a significant portion of anthropogenic carbon found in the ocean interior may be derived from surface waters advected into water formation regions rather than from local gas exchange. Therefore, changes in climate modes, such as the NAO, may alter the residence time of anthropogenic carbon in the ocean by altering the rate of water mass transformation. In addition, interannual variability in Canthro storage increases the difficulty of Canthro detection and attribution through hydrographic observations, which are limited by sparse sampling of subsurface waters in time and space.We would like to acknowledge funding

A muddy place with 2000 years of history: La Troya, Tinogasta Department, Catamarca

Instituto de las Culturas; ArgentinaEn este trabajo integramos espacial y temporalmente la información primaria y secundaria del barreal de La Troya (departamento Tinogasta, Catamarca), la cual fue generada por distintos actores y circunstancias en el desarrollo de la práctica arqueológica, específicamente los pioneros de la disciplina, las colecciones en guarda en museos, los estudios de impacto y los proyectos de investigación. Damos cuenta de la historia socioambiental del barreal a lo largo de casi 2000 años y la contextualizamos con las características del proceso a escala regional. Los resultados definen al barreal como un espacio persistente donde distintas organizaciones sociales, económicas y políticas se asentaron construyendo sus poblados, realizando actividades productivas y enterrando a sus muertos desde las sociedades del primer milenio hasta momentos hispano-indígenas.This work integrates, spatially and temporally, the primary and secondary information of the barreal of La Troya (Tinogasta, Catamarca), generated in different circumstances during the development of the archaeological practice: the work of the pioneers of the discipline, museum collections, impact studies and research projects. We present the socio-environmental history over almost 2000 years and contextualize it with the characteristics of the process on a regional scale. The results define the barreal as a persistent space where different social, economic and political organizations settled, building their villages, carrying out productive activities and burying their dead since the societies of the first millennium until Spanish-indigenous moments.Ratto, N.
