The Current Global Situation and Future Trends
No full textMicroalgae play a vital role in the rearing of aquatic animals like mollusks,
shrimp, and fish, and are of strategic interest for aquaculture. This work
reviews production systems of microalgae for aquaculture (e.g. Benemann,
1992; Muller-Feuga, 2000), partially reproduced and updated here (with
kind permission from Kluwer Academic Publishers). All the fisheries and
aquaculture production statistics quoted were obtained from the United
Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO, 2000).
Wild phytoplankton is at the base of the entire aquatic food chain, supporting
the production of renewable resources by some 100 106 t of fish
per year. Overall annual ocean primary production is set at 1011 tDW (Longhurst
et al., 1995; Pauly & Christensen, 1995). Microalgae?s main applications
for aquaculture are related to nutrition, being used fresh ? as a sole
component or as a food additive to basic nutrients ? for coloring the flesh of
salmonids and for other biological activities. This report deals principally
with the nutritional role of microalgae in aquaculture

Rapport V. 2 Les contributions d'Électricité de France à la valorisation des rejets thermiques
No full textContributions of Electricité de France to thermal discharge valorization.
Contributions of Electricité de France to thermal discharge valorization consist both in elaborating technologies and in transmitting them to professionals.
According to those purposes, some experimental operations have been conducted since 1974 on four sites of thermal power stations, both nuclear ant fossil fueled, cooled on sea shore or on river. In this last case, thermal discharge of both once-through and recirculating cooling systems, which present different caracteristics, have been separately evaluated
Experimental programs and use of information gathered are under the responsability of associations where concerned professions, technical institutes and Administration are represented.
Satisfactory experimental results, increasing participation of professional organizations and full scale operations planned around Dampierre power station make a favorable issue possible in a near future.
This trend allows Electricité de France to foresee a gradual decrease of its contributions, in accordance with conditions to be examined.Electricité de France contribue à la valorisation des effluents thermiques de ses centrales en agriculture et aquaculture, tant dans la mise au point des techniques que dans le transfert des résultats aux professions intéressées.
Dans ce but, des opérations d'essai et de démonstration ont été conduites depuis 1974 sur quatre sites de centrales thermiques, nucléaires et au fuel, réfrigérées en bord de mer ou sur rivière. Dans ce dernier cas, les effluents thermiques résultant de la réfrigération en circuits ouverts et fermés, qui présentent des caractéristiques différentes, on fait l'objet d'évaluations distinctes.
La conduite de ces essais et l'utilisation des enseignements qu'ils ont permis de dégager ont été confiées à des associations où sont représentées les professions intéressées, les instituts techniques compétents, et l'Administration.
Le déroulement satisfaisant de certaines opérations, la participation plus active des organisations professionnelles et le lancement prochain d'exploitations en vraie grandeur autour du site de Dampierre, laissent à penser que ces efforts devraient aboutir à terme.
Cette perspective permet d'envisager une diminution progressive de l'aide de cet établissement selon des modalités qui sont examinées.Muller-Feuga A.

A study of arithmetic circuits and the effect of utilising Reed-Muller techniques
No full textReed-Muller algebraic techniques, as an alternative means in logic design, became more attractive recently, because of their compact representations of logic functions and yielding of easily testable circuits. It is claimed by some researchers that Reed-Muller algebraic techniques are particularly suitable for arithmetic circuits. In fact, no practical application in this field can be found in the open literature.This project investigates existing Reed-Muller algebraic techniques and explores their application in arithmetic circuits. The work described in this thesis is concerned with practical applications in arithmetic circuits, especially for minimizing logic circuits at the transistor level. These results are compared with those obtained using the conventional Boolean algebraic techniques. This work is also related to wider fields, from logic level design to layout level design in CMOS circuits, the current leading technology in VLSI. The emphasis is put on circuit level (transistor level) design. The results show that, although Boolean logic is believed to be a more general tool in logic design, it is not the best tool in all situations. Reed-Muller logic can generate good results which can't be easily obtained by using Boolean logic.F or testing purposes, a gate fault model is often used in the conventional implementation of Reed-Muller logic, which leads to Reed-Muller logic being restricted to using a small gate set. This usually leads to generating more complex circuits. When a cell fault model, which is more suitable for regular and iterative circuits, such as arithmetic circuits, is used instead of the gate fault model in Reed-Muller logic, a wider gate set can be employed to realize Reed-Muller functions. As a result, many circuits designed using Reed-Muller logic can be comparable to that designed using Boolean logic. This conclusion is demonstrated by testing many randomly generated functions.The main aim of this project is to develop arithmetic circuits for practical application. A number of practical arithmetic circuits are reported. The first one is a carry chain adder. Utilising the CMOS circuit characteristics, a simple and high speed carry chain is constructed to perform the carry operation. The proposed carry chain adder can be reconstructed to form a fast carry skip adder, and it is also found to be a good application for residue number adders. An algorithm for an on-line adder and its implementation are also developed. Another circuit is a parallel multiplier based on 5:3 counter. The simulations show that the proposed circuits are better than many previous designs, in terms of the number of transistors and speed. In addition, a 4:2 compressor for a carry free adder is investigated. It is shown that the two main schemes to construct the 4:2 compressor have a unified structure. A variant of the Baugh and Wooley algorithm is also studied and generalized in this work

Glenn Muller Interview, October 29, 1990
No full textGlenn Muller recalls learning to play guitar and saxophone as a child because his parents and siblings also played instruments. He talks about playing in Air Force bands as a young adult during the era of big band jazz and swing music. Muller describes how playing in these groups led him to play in Dixieland jazz bands later on in his life. He discusses his admiration for New Orleans-based jazz masters such as Louis Armstrong, Melvin James “Sy” Oliver, and Willie Gary “Bunk” Johnson, and his own affinity for playing improvisational types of jazz music. Muller and his wife talk about the different venues that he and his band have played and how Dixieland jazz bands, with up to 16 members, differ from popular music groups of the 1980s and ‘90s.
Muller’s wife, Dorothy, participates occasionally throughout the interview.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/missoulamusicians_oralhistory/1002/thumbnail.jp

Muller 2019; BMSA (D)02271; BMSA type no. 317. Micro-pinned specimen. Specimen deposited in the National Museum, Bloemfontein, South Africa. Paratype ♀ Same data as for Holotype. Paratype ♀ Coenosia flagelliseta sp. nov.; B.S. Muller 2019; BMSA (D)02273; BMSA type no. 318. Micro-pinned specimen, genitalia dissected, stored together with abdomen in vial under specimen. Specimen deposited in the National Museum, Bloemfontein, South Africa. Diagnosis. Males can easily be distinguished from other known species of Coenosia by the whip-like setae and setulae on the thorax and legs. The females have a supramedian posterior seta on the mid tibia, which is absent in the female of C. curiosa, the only other known globuliseta -group species with the female described. Correction. The original BMSA type numbers 306 and 307 assigned to the holotype (BMSA(D)02271, and female paratype (BMSA(D)02273) respectively in Muller (2019) were incorrectly assigned due to an administrative error and were already preoccupied by other specimens in the National Museum, Bloemfontein collection. The new correct numbers are included in the material examined citation above for future reference.Also, the female paratype is also incorrectly referred to as an Allotype under the measurement section in Muller (2019).
