A general at the end of the Chinese Ming Dynasty, he was a prominent leader of the movement opposing the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and in recovering Taiwan from Dutch colonial occupation in 1661. Honored as a hero in Japan, China, and Taiwan, he has been dramatized in many plays in various theatre forms in Japan (since about 1700), China (since 1906), and Taiwan (since the 1920s). -

Gelatin was dissolved in mixed solvent (volume ratio, acetic acid : DI water = 80 : 20) with a concentration of 18 wt% at 65 °C. The mixed solvent was used to achieve a good electrospinning of the gelatin solution. With that ratio between water and acetic acid, it was found that a homogenous yellow solution and stable electrospinning of the solution can be achieved. The electrospinning of gelatin solution is a well- known process and the effect of viscosity on electrospinning of gelatin has been studied before.1 After the homogenous gelatin solution (18 wt%) is prepared, the nanofibers were spun at room temperature on an aluminum mesh substrate. The areal density of the nanofabrics was controlled by controlling the volume of the solution that was electrospun on the substrate. The gelatin nanofabrics possessed a thickness within the range of 8 – 20 μm. In particular, the sample with the best air filtration properties (areal density = 3.43 g/m2) possesses a thickness of about 16 μm. The gelatin nanofabrics can be handled manually even though they are not crosslinked, but it is challenging due to very high electrostatic charge of the nanofibers. -

A Fine-Grained 3D IC Technology with NP-Dynamic Logic

Rahman is with the School of Computing and Engineering, University of Missouri, Kansas City, MO 65211 S. Khasanvis is with BlueRISC Inc., Amherst, MA 01002 CORRESPONDING AUTHOR: J. SHI ([email protected]) ABSTRACT A new 3D IC fabric named NP-Dynamic Skybridge is proposed that provides fine-grained vertical 3D integration for future technology scaling. Relying on a template of vertical nanowires, it expands our prior work to incorporate and utilize both n- and p-type transistors in a novel NP-Dynamic circuit-style compatible with true 3D integration. This enables a wide range of elementary logics leading to more compact circuits, simple clocking schemes for cascading logic stages and low buffer requirement. We detail new design concepts for larger-scale circuits, and evaluate our approach using a 4-bit nanoprocessor implemented in 16 nm technology node. A new pipelining scheme specifically designed for our 3D NP-Dynamic circuits is employed in the nanoprocessor. We compare our approach with 2D CMOS as well as state-of-the-art tran- sistor-level monolithic 3D IC (T-MI) approach. Benchmarking results for the 4-bit nanoprocessor show bene- fits of up to 56.7x density, 3.8x power and 1.7x throughput over 2D CMOS. -

On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E Minna Wu Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMIBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 @2013 Minna Wu All rights reserved ABSTRACT On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze-Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E. Minna Wu The Shandong region has been of considerable interest to the study of ancient China due to its location in the eastern periphery of the central culture. For the Western Zhou state, Shandong was the “Far East” and it was a vast region of diverse landscape and complex cultural traditions during the Late Bronze-Age (1000-500 BCE). In this research, the developmental trajectories of three different types of secondary states are examined. The first type is the regional states established by the Zhou court; the second type is the indigenous Non-Zhou states with Dong Yi origins; the third type is the states that may have been formerly Shang polities and accepted Zhou rule after the Zhou conquest of Shang. On the one hand, this dissertation examines the dynamic social and cultural process in the eastern periphery in relation to the expansion and colonization of the Western Zhou state; on the other hand, it emphasizes the agency of the periphery during the formation of secondary states by examining how the polities in the periphery responded to the advances of the Western Zhou state and how local traditions impacted the composition of the local material assemblage which lay the foundation for the future prosperity of the regional culture. -
Approximations to the Birthday Problem with Unequal Occurrence Probabilities and Their Application to the Surname Problem in Japan*
Ann. Inst. Statist. Math. Vol. 44, No. 3, 479-499 (1992) APPROXIMATIONS TO THE BIRTHDAY PROBLEM WITH UNEQUAL OCCURRENCE PROBABILITIES AND THEIR APPLICATION TO THE SURNAME PROBLEM IN JAPAN* SHIGERU MASE Faculty of Integrated Arts and Sciences, Hiroshima University, Naka-ku, Hiroshima 730, Japan (Received July 4, 1990; revised September 2, 1991) Abstract. Let X1,X2,...,X~ be iid random variables with a discrete dis- tribution {Pi}~=l. We will discuss the coincidence probability Rn, i.e., the probability that there are members of {Xi} having the same value. If m = 365 and p~ ~ 1/365, this is the famous birthday problem. Also we will give two kinds of approximation to this probability. Finally we will give two applica- tions. The first is the estimation of the coincidence probability of surnames in Japan. For this purpose, we will fit a generalized zeta distribution to a fre- quency data of surnames in Japan. The second is the true birthday problem, that is, we will evaluate the birthday probability in Japan using the actual (non-uniform) distribution of birthdays in Japan. Key words and phrases: Birthday problem, coincidence probability, non-uni- formness, Bell polynomial, approximation, surname. I. Introduction It is frequently observed that, even within a small group, there are people with the same surname. It may not be considered so curious to find persons with the same surname in a group compared to those with the same birthday. But if we consider the variety of surnames and the relatively small portions of each surname in some countries, this fact becomes less trivial than is first seen. -

Skybridge: 3-D Integrated Circuit Technology Alternative to CMOS
Skybridge: 3-D Integrated Circuit Technology Alternative to CMOS Mostafizur Rahman, Santosh Khasanvis, Jiajun Shi, Mingyu Li, and Csaba Andras Moritz Continuous scaling of CMOS has been the major catalyst doped precisely in isolated 3-D regions, which is impractical. in miniaturization of integrated circuits (ICs) and crucial In addition to these, there is no heat extraction capability for global socio-economic progress. However, scaling to inherent to CMOS to prevent thermal hotspot development. sub-20nm technologies is proving to be challenging as Admittedly, since the inception of vertical devices in 20006 MOSFETs are reaching their fundamental limits1 and there has been no success in the realization of 3-D CMOS interconnection bottleneck2 is dominating IC operational despite a significant industrial push. power and performance. Migrating to 3-D, as a way to In contrast to CMOS, that has evolved focusing on the advance scaling, has eluded us due to inherent device especially and requires a largely component-centric customization and manufacturing requirements in CMOS assembly, the Skybridge fabric shifts to a fabric-centric that are incompatible with 3-D organization. Partial mindset and provides an integrated solution for all technology attempts with die-die3 and layer-layer4 stacking have their aspects. First, it starts with a regular array of uniform vertical own limitations5. We propose a 3-D IC fabric technology, nanowires that forms the Skybridge template (Fig. 1A).
