Abstract. This is a survey of the historical development of the Spectral Xxxx- dard Model and beyond, starting with the ground breaking paper of Xxxxx Xxxxxx in 1988 where he observed that there is a link between Xxxxx fields and finite noncommutative spaces. We present the impor- tant contributions that helped in the search and identification of the noncommutative space that characterizes the fine structure of space- time. The nature and properties of the noncommutative space are arrived at by independent routes and show the uniqueness of the Spec- tral Standard Model at low energies and the Pati–Salam unification model at high energies. 1 Introduction 2 2 Early days of the spectral Standard Model 4

Abstract. INTRODUCTION: The development of fully automated immunoassay platforms has improved the technical reliability of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease. METHODS: We quantified Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, tTau and pTau levels using the Lumipulse G System in 94 CSF samples from participants of the SPIN cohort with available 18F- Florbetapir imaging. Amyloid scans were assessed visually and through automated quantification. We determined the cutoffs of CSF biomarkers that optimized their agreement with 18F-Florbetapir PET and evaluated concordance between markers of the amyloid category. RESULTS: Aβ1-42, tTau and pTau (but not Aβ1-40) and the ratios with Aβ1-42 had good diagnostic agreement with 18F-Florbetapir PET. As a marker of amyloid pathology, the Aβ1-42/Aβ1-40 ratio had higher agreement and better correlation with amyloid PET than Aβ1-42 alone. DISCUSSION: CSF biomarkers measured with the Lumipulse G System show good agreement with amyloid imaging. Combination of Aβ1-42 with Aβ1-40 increases the agreement between markers of amyloid pathology.
Abstract. As soon as reasonably possible following the full execution of this Agreement, Seller at its sole cost and expense shall cause to be issued and delivered to Purchaser, abstract of title, or Registered Abstract certified to date to include proper searches covering bankruptcies, and State and Federal judgments and liens. After making that delivery, Seller shall not be obligated for any further updating of the abstracts of title, such further cost to be the sole obligation of the Purchaser.

Abstract. A study of Thomson-Scientific ISI ranked Library and Information Science (LIS) journals (n=52) is reported. The study examined the stances of publishers as expressed in the Copyright Transfer Agreements (CTAs) of the journals, towards self-archiving, the practice of depositing digital copies of one's works in an OAI-compliant open access repository. 62 % (32) do not make their CTAs available on the open web; 38 % (20) do. Of the 38 % that do make CTAs available, two are open access journals. Of the 62 % that do not have a publicly available CTA, 40 % are silent about self- archiving. Even among the 20 journal CTAs publicly available there is a high level of ambiguity. Closer examination augmented by publisher policy documents on copyright, self-archiving, and instructions to authors, reveal that only five, 10% of the ISI-ranked LIS journals in the study, actually prohibit self-archiving by publisher rule. Copyright is a moving target but publishers appear to be acknowledging that copyright and open access can co-exist in scholarly journal publishing. The ambivalence of LIS journal publishers provides unique opportunities to members of the community. Authors can self-archive in open access archives. A society-led global scholarly communication consortium can engage in the strategic building of the LIS information commons. Aggregating OAI- compliant archives and developing disciplinary-specific library services for an LIS commons has the potential to increase the field's research impact and visibility. It may also ameliorate its own scholarly communication and publishing systems and serve as a model for others.
Abstract. In this paper we study a usage based lease contract for remanufac- tured equipment as an implementation of product service system. Under this lease contract, the equipment is leased for a period of Γ with a maximum us- age, U. If the usage of the equipment exceeds U at time Γ , then lessee will be charged some additional cost. Otherwise there will be no additional cost. The price of the lease contract for the remanufactured equipment is much cheaper than that of a new one. As a result, the lease contract for the remanufactured equipment would be a more attractive option to the lessee. The decision prob- lem for the lessee is to select the best option suitable to its requirement, and the decision problem for the lessor is find the optimal maintenance policy and the price for each length of periods offered. We provide numerical examples for il- lustrating the optimal decisions for the lessee, and the lessor, which maximizes the expected profit for each party. Keywords: Remanufactured, lease, usage based service system, preventive maintenance, game theory.
Abstract. Introduction: Given the wide range of neurofibromatoses (NF) symptoms and medical specialties involved in NF care, we sought to evaluate the level of awareness of, and agreement with, published NF clinical guidelines among United States NF specialists.
