  1. 26. LenticularFS: scalable hierarchical filesystem for the cloud

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Roberto Bampi; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Hadoop platform is the most common solution to handle the explosion of big-data that both companies and research institutions are facing. In order to store such data, the Hadoop platform provides HDFS, a scalable distributed filesystem which runs on commodity hardware and enables linear scalability by adding new storage nodes.

  3. 27. Towards Identifying Pharmacodynamic Blood Biomarkers of MAP3K12 Inhibition

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Elisabeth Jirström; [2017]
    Keywords : Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase; MAP3K12; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; DLK; ALS; Pharmacodynamic; Biomarker; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences; Medicine and Health Sciences; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, for which there is no cure. Activation of the stress-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway, a critical mediator of neuronal apoptosis and axon degeneration, is evident in ALS and is therefore considered a potential target to prevent neurodegeneration.

  4. 28. Visualization of Electrical Architectures In the Automotive Domain Based on the Needs of Stakeholders

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Thathong Nattapon; Mayo Florence; [2016-06-27]
    Keywords : architecture; automated visualization; automotive; needs; stakeholders;

    Abstract : The use of software in automotive engineering keeps on growing higher every year. This has an impact on a data stored in a database in such a way that a structure of data stored becomes complex due to hierarchy and hence difficult to understand. READ MORE

  5. 29. Standardization of the Compass Neuropils of the Australian Bogong Moth, Agrotis infusa

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Liv de Vries; [2016]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Every summer the Australian Bogong moth migrates from southern Queensland to the Australian Alps in southern New South Wales. Other migrants such as the monarch butterfly use a time-compensated sun compass. However, the Bogong is nocturnal and only has access to skylight cues such as the moon, polarized light or the Milky Way. READ MORE

  6. 30. Building predictive unbound brain-to-plasma concentration ratio (Kp,uu,brain) models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Srinidhi Varadharajan; [2014]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) constitutes a dynamic membrane primarily evolved to protect the brain from exposure to harmful xenobiotics. The distribution of synthesized drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a vital parameter to consider in drug discovery projects involving a central nervous system (CNS) target, since the molecules should be capable of crossing the major hurdle, BBB.
