New and interesting chaetothyrialean fungi from Spain

Madrid, H. Hernandez-Restrepo, M. Gene, J. Cano, J. Guarro, J. Silva, V.

In the course of taxonomic studies on saprobic microfungi from Spain, several slow-growing, dematiaceous hyphomycetes were isolated from soil, submerged plant material and river sediments. Sixteen of these strains were identified as members of the ascomycete order Chaetothyriales on the basis of morphology and DNA sequence analyses of the internal transcribed spacer region and partial large subunit ribosomal RNA gene. These included three novel species (Cladophialophora pseudocarrionii, Cyphellophora chlamydospora, and Rhinocladiella amoena) and five interesting, little-known or clinically-relevant species (Cyphellophora suttonii, Exophiala aquamarina, E. lacus, E. radicis, and Rhinocladiella similis). In addition, Exophiala oligosperma, an emerging opportunistic fungus, was found for the first time in an aquatic freshwater environment (river sediments). Cladophialophora pseudocarrionii resembles C. carrionii in the branching pattern of its conidial chains, but differs from the latter species in its inability to grow at 30 A degrees C. Cyphellophora chlamydospora differs from other species of the genus in the absence of conidiation, producing only chlamydospores in vitro. Rhinocladiella amoena shows branched conidiophores similar to those of R. anceps, R. atrovirens, R. basitona and R. similis, but differs from them in conidial shape and size. The ex-type strain of Phialophora livistonae, included in the phylogenetic study, clustered with high statistical support with members of the genus Cyphellophora and is transferred to this genus.

Real time digital control system for a single-phase shunt active power filter

Silva, V. Pinto, J.G. Cabral, J. Afonso, J.L. Tavares, A.

In this paper a real-time control system, developed to control a single-phase shunt active power filter used to minimize problems related to power quality in electrical systems is presented. The power stage of the active filter is based on a one-leg inverter, with two capacitors in the dc side, and a filter inductor in the ac side. The control system is based on the instantaneous power theory in the alpha-beta-0 reference frame (pq-theory), modified to be applied in single-phase systems. In essence, the shunt active filter is designed to drain, from the electric grid, harmonic and reactive components of the load currents, such that the source current will become an almost sinusoidal waveform, with low harmonic distortion, and in phase with the system voltage. The control system is implemented using a development board (Atmel NGW100) and ensures simultaneous real-time acquisition of voltage and current data, the proposed system is capable of acquiring eight analog channels (16-bit resolution) simultaneously at 150ksps, based in the acquire data the power components calculation and compensation is performed accordingly to the p-q theory.

FFT-SPA NON-BINARY LDPC DECODING ON GPU

Andrade, J. Falcao, G. Silva, V. Kasai, Kenta

It is well known that non-binary LDPC codes outperform the BER performance of binary LDPC codes for the same code length. The superior BER performance of non-binary codes comes at the expense of more complex decoding algorithms that demand higher computational power. In this paper, we propose parallel signal processing algorithms for performing the FFT-SPA and the corresponding decoding of non-binary LDPC codes over GF(q). The constraints imposed by the complex nature of associated subsystems and kernels, in particular the Check Nodes, present computational challenges regarding multicore systems. Experimental results obtained on GPU for a variety of GF(q) show throughputs in the order of 2 Mbps, which is far above from the minimum throughput required, for example, for real-time video applications that can benefit from such error correcting capabilities.

Analytical optimization of CQF filter banks

Silva, V. de Sa, L.

The optimization of subband filter banks for signal and image coding is normally dealt with by numerical means. It is shown that this optimization can be done analytically in the case of the prototype four-tap causal conjugate quadrature filter (CQF). The coding gain and aliasing energy are considered in the optimization. Using parametrizations of the prototype filter coefficients, it was found that the optimal filter is the regular Daubechies D/sub 2/ wavelet filter.

High coded data rate and multicodeword WiMAX LDPC decoding on Cell/BE RID B-2749-2009

Falcao, G. Silva, V. Sousa, L. Marinho, J.

A novel, flexible and scalable parallel LDPC decoding approach for the WiMAX wireless broadband standard (IEEE 802.16e) in the multicore Cell broadband engine architecture is proposed. A multicodeword LDPC decoder performing the simultaneous decoding of 96 code-words is presented. The coded data rate achieved a range of 72-80 Mbit/s, which compares well with VLSI-based decoders and is superior to the maximum coded data rate required by the WiMAX standard performing in worst case conditions. The 8-bit precision arithmetic adopted shows additional advantages over traditional 6-bit precision dedicated VLSI-based solutions, allowing better error floors and BER performance.

Three independent ways to obtain information on pore size distributions of nanofiltration membranes RID B-7628-2011 RID B-4622-2012

Otero, J. A. Mazarrasa, O. Villasante, J. Silva, V. Pradanos, P. Calvo, J. I. Hernandez, A.

Three independent methods are used to get the pore size distribution of nanofiltration membranes. Two membranes from PCI - AFC-40 and AFC-80 - have been studied. The surface pore size distribution has been studied by AFM images of the membrane surface. A steric pore flow model with friction has been used for different neutral solutes to obtain the effective pore size seen by several organic uncharged solutes. This model is improved by taking into account the modifications of viscosity for confined geometries in narrow pores and by using the Hagen-Poiseuille model to isolate the pore radius as the only parameter of the model. The retentive fractions of pores for the solutes used, which sizes are over the effective pore size seen by them, have been considered to obtain the pore size distribution. Finally a liquid-liquid displacement technique has been used to directly get the open pore size distribution. A fairly good agreement has been obtained by all the three methods used.

The Latin American Pediatric Nephrology Association (ALANEPE) reports the first regional kidney transplant registry in Latin America. A mean range of 75%, 30% to 100% renal transplant recipients under 21 yr old were included. Out of 20 countries invited to participate, 14 performed renal transplant, 11 had universal financial support from their governments. The centers included: Brazil (9), Argentina (4), Chile (4), Venezuela (3), Mexico (2), and one in: Cuba, Colombia, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Ecuador, Honduras, Paraguay and Peru. The registry included 1458 patients, average of 291 per year, 55% male. Mean follow-up 23.4 +/- 17 months; mean age was 11.7 +/- 4.3 yr (1-21), 11% under five yr of age. Etiology: uropathy/ reflux nephropathy 27%, glomerulopathies 24% (included 12% FSGS), hypo/dysplasia (11%), vascular (6%), congenital/hereditary (5%), unknown (19%). Induction therapy: 71% anti-IL2RAb, 13% ATG/TIMO, 14% non-induction. Maintenance therapy: Tacrolimus 64%, Cyclosporine 32%, MMF 54%, MPS 20%, noTORi 96%, steroids 90%, withdrawal or steroid avoidance 10%. Loss of graft 155/1458 (11%), death with functioning graft (3.4%), vascular thrombosis (2.8%), acute rejection (2.8%), recurrence of disease (1%). Forty-eight patients died (3.3%); infection was the main cause 23 (2.1%). Global patient survival rate at one, three, and five yr was 97%, 96%, and 96%. Graft survival rate at one, three, and five yr LRD was 96%, 93% and 89%; for DD 92%, 86% and 76% respectively. Both survival rates were higher in LRD (p < 0.008 and p < 0.001). A pediatric renal transplant study has started, making information available to be shared between the centers and the world.

Implementing a distributed sensing and actuation system: The CAMBADA robots case study

Silva, V. Marau, R. Almeida, L. Ferreira, J. Calha, M. Pedreiras, P. Fonseca, J.

The use of distributed computing architectures has become commonplace in complex embedded systems with potential advantages, for example, in terms of scalability, dependability and maintainability. One particular area in which that trend can be witnessed is mobile autonomous robotics in which several sensors and actuators are interconnected by means of a control network. In this paper we address one case study concerning the CAMBADA robots that were developed at the University of Aveiro for the Robocup Middle Size League. These robots have a distributed architecture with two layers, a coordination layer responsible for the global behaviors and a distributed sensing and actuating layer that conveys internal state information and executes coordination commands. This paper focuses on the latter layer, which is based on the FTT-CAN protocol, following a network-centric approach that provides an efficient framework for the synchronization of all systems activities. We describe the computing and communication requirements, the robot architecture, the system design and implementation, and finally we provide experimental results that show advantages with respect to a non-synchronized distributed approach.
