    Notes: Abstract Most recent researches into an object oriented design approach for the development of real-time Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) applications have concentrated on object identification and object classification. These techniques, however, may only be considered as an object-based paradigm. In the true object-oriented paradigm, object characteristics such as data encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism must also be considered. This paper introduces a design paradigm for developing a SCADA system through the true object oriented design methodology. To complete the design, a hierarchical object-oriented design (HOOD) tree is used to map the physical shop floor layout to a logical layout for formulating the basic object hierarchy. The active components and control logic in the SCADA models are manipulated by a newly derived script language called CONTROL-C++ proposed by the author. To verify the proposed model, a newly designed software system is implemented and justified in terms of system completeness and soundness.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of the present project is to determine the feasibility of measuring hepatic cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) and metallothionein (MT) mRNA in fish as an integrative measurement of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and heavy metal contamination in sediment arising in Hong Kong. Sediment samples were collected from different sites, including Victoria Harbour (VS6), Yim Tin Tsai (YTT) at Tolo Harbour, Mai Po marshes (MPM) at Deep Bay, and Southern Waters (SS6) of coastal waters. The samples were analyzed for total and extractable concentrations of Cd, Cu, Ni, Zn, and Pb, as well as PCBs and PAHs. In addition, biomarker responses were studied in tilapia exposed experimentally to coastal sediment for 7 days. Using RT-PCR technique, hepatic CYP1A1 and MT mRNA were measured. Three control groups were used, including one negative control group maintained in sea water only; the second and third positive control groups were in sea water but were intraperitoneally injected with either β-naphthoflavone (40 μg/g body weight) or cadmium chloride (10 μg/g body weight), respectively. The chemical data showed that VS6, YTT, and MPM were classified as Class C sediment according to the sediment quality criteria defined by the Hong Kong Environmental Protection Department, indicating the sites were heavily polluted. The exposure of tilapia to the sediment induced hepatic CYP1A1 (VS6 〉 YTT 〉 MPM 〉 SS6) and MT (VS6 〉 MPM 〉 YTT 〉 SS6) levels. The induction patterns were comparable to the levels of POPs and metal contamination in the sediment, indicating that the biomarker responses could be used to differentiate low to high levels of contamination among sediment.

    Computer simulation on reconstruction of 3-D flame temperature distribution (2000)

    Notes: Abstract  To measure non-symmetric unsteady three dimensional temperature distribution in flame by simple, economic, fast and accurate means, and to apply a priori information to the measurement both sufficiently and efficiently, we conducted computer simulations. Simulation results proved that finite series-expansion reconstruction method is more suitable for measurement of temperature distribution in flame than transform method which is widely used in medical scanning and nondestructive testing. By comparing errors of simulations with different numbers of views, different domain shapes, different numbers of projections per view, different angles of views and different grid shapes, etc., we find that circle domain, triangular grid and sufficient number of projections per view, can improve the accuracy in the reconstruction of 3-D temperature distribution with limited views. With six views, errors caused by reconstruction computation are reduced, they are smaller than those caused by measurement. Therefore, a comparatively better means of measuring 3-D temperature distribution in flame with limited projection views by emission tomography is achieved. Experimental results also showed that the method we used was appropriate for measurement of 3-D temperature distribution with limited number of views [1].

    Notes: Abstract 1. To investigate the potency of a novel immunotoxin that is specific for glutamate receptor GluR1, a subunit of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate (AMPA)-type receptor channel, immunolesioning was performed. 2. A ribosome-inactivating protein, trichosanthin (TCS), was isolated and conjugated to the goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody molecule. The anti-rabbit antibody–TCS complex was preincubated with GluR1-specific rabbit antibody to produce a GluR1-specific immunotoxin. The immunotoxin was unilaterally administered into either the neostriatum or the lateral ventricle of rats. 3. Immunoreactivity for GluR1 or GluR4 was revealed in perfuse-fixed sections of the neostriatum obtained from the lesioned and control animals by immunocytochemistry. After ventricular or striatal injections of the immunotoxin, depletions of GluR1-immunoreactive neurons, the presumed GABAergic interneurons in the neostriatum, were found. Depletions of GluR4-immunoreactive perikarya, the presumed same subpopulation of striatal interneurons, were also found. In addition, no change in the pattern of distribution of immunoreactivity for GluR2 or glial fibrillary acidic protein was found in the lesioned neostriatum. These results indicate that the novel GluR1 immunotoxin is potent and specific. 4. In addition, striatal application of the immunotoxin caused a greater depletion in the number of GluR1-immunoreactive neurons. The present results also indicate that the route of immunotoxin application may be important in producing specific lesions.
