Abstract

The present study aimed to assess the efficacy of photofunctionalization on commercially available dental implant surfaces in a high-glucose environment. Discs of three commercially available implant surfaces were selected with various nano- and microstructural alterations (Group 1—laser-etched implant surface, Group 2—titanium–zirconium alloy surface, Group 3—air-abraded, large grit, acid-etched surface). They were subjected to photo-functionalization through UV irradiation for 60 and 90 min. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze the implant surface chemical composition before and after photo-functionalization. The growth and bioactivity of MG63 osteoblasts in the presence of photofunctionalized discs was assessed in cell culture medium containing elevated glucose concentration. The normal osteoblast morphology and spreading behavior were assessed under fluorescence and phase-contrast microscope. MTT (3-(4,5 Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) and alizarin red assay were performed to assess the osteoblastic cell viability and mineralization efficiency. Following photofunctionalization, all three implant groups exhibited a reduced carbon content, conversion of Ti4+ to Ti3+, increased osteoblastic adhesion, viability, and increased mineralization. The best osteoblastic adhesion in the medium with increased glucose was seen in Group 3. Photofunctionalization altered the implant surface chemistry by reducing the surface carbon content, probably rendering the surfaces more hydrophilic and conducive for osteoblastic adherence and subsequent mineralization in high-glucose environment.

Sandhu, R. K., Vasconcelos-Gomes, J., Thomas, M. A., & Oliveira, T. (2023). Unfolding the Popularity of Video Conferencing Apps: A Privacy Calculus Perspective. International Journal Of Information Management, 68(February), 1-17. [102569]. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijinfomgt.2022.102569. Funding: This work was supported by national funds through FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia) under the project - UIDB/04152/2020 - Centro de Investigação em Gestão de Informação (MagIC). Videoconferencing (VC) applications (apps) have surged in popularity as an alternative to face-to-face communications especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although VC apps offer myriad benefits, it has caught much media attention owing to concerns of privacy infringements. This study examines the key determinants of working professional’s intentions to use VC apps in the backdrop of this conflicting duality. A conceptual research model is proposed that is based on theoretical foundations of privacy calculus and extended with conceptualizations of mobile users’ information privacy concerns (MUIPC), trust, technicality, ubiquity, as well as theoretical underpinnings of social presence theory. Structural equation modelling (SEM) is used to empirically test the model using data collected from 487 working professionals. For researchers, the study offers insights on the extent to which social richness and technological capabilities afforded by the virtual environment serve as predictors of the continuance intentions of using VC apps. Researchers may also find the model applicable to other studies of surveillance-based technologies. For practitioners, key recommendations pivotal to the design and development mobile video-conferencing apps are presented to ensure higher acceptance and continued usage of VC apps in professional settings. preprint authorsversion published

Abstract

Cloud computing is vulnerable to several security risks because of its decentralised nature. Homomorphic encryption is an encryption technique used to encrypt data that are used to access from the cloud server. In the proposed work particle swarm optimization technique is used to improve the encryption key. Particle swarm optimization algorithms (PSO) gets their inspiration from the social behaviour of birds and are well known population-dependent meta-heuristic algorithms. Depending on the assessed quality, hybrid homomorphic encryption methods starts with a randomly distributed collection of particles to enhance the outcomes. The results of the simulation shows the improvement in encryption process by the proposed hybrid encryption technique compared to existing homomorphic encryption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

38. Adaptive and Convex Optimization-Inspired Workflow Scheduling for Cloud Environment

Author

Abstract

Scheduling large-scale and resource-intensive workflows in cloud infrastructure is one of the main challenges for cloud service providers (CSPs). Cloud infrastructure is more efficient when virtual machines and other resources work up to their full potential. The main factor that influences the quality of cloud services is the distribution of workflow on virtual machines (VMs). Scheduling tasks to VMs depends on the type of workflow and mechanism of resource allocation. Scientific workflows include large-scale data transfer and consume intensive resources of cloud infrastructures. Therefore, scheduling of tasks from scientific workflows on VMs requires efficient and optimized workflow scheduling techniques. This paper proposes an optimised workflow scheduling approach that aims to improve the utilization of cloud resources without increasing execution time and execution cost.

Abstract

Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are being used as a cost-effective alternative light source during plant growth to regulate the overall quality of fruits and vegetables; however, they have been used infrequently at the post-harvest stage. Their capability of narrow bandwidth emission and controllable spectral distribution holds a potential to help food producers and distributors in reducing wastage incurred during the post-harvest activities. LEDs can potentially help in regulating senescence, ripening and nutritional attributes in fruits and vegetables. The objective of the thesis is to develop a LED post-harvest system for fresh fruits and vegetables and evaluate the effect of LED lights of different wavelengths and photon flux intensities on nutritional content and shelf life of fruits and vegetables at different temperatures and treatment times. Blueberries were measured for change in weight, diameter, colour, TSS and anthocyanin content to evaluate the effect of LED lights on ripening. Phenolic compounds were estimated and quantified using Folin-Ciocalteau reagent and HPLC assays and Antioxidant activity was determined using scavenging activity on DPPH radicals and FRAP. The results suggest that under some conditions of illumination with LEDs, the nutritional content enhanced, and ripening was delayed. The results from this thesis will help researchers to identify optimal LED treatment parameters for post-harvest enhancement of the overall quality of fruits and vegetables. This will also help in determining the potential applications of LEDs in various post-harvest management operations of food to reduce losses and help in building the competence of the food supply system.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the crestal bone loss and implant stability quotient trends of photofunctionalised versus untreated implants. Materials and methods: A total of 34 patients (age 46.94 ± 12.03 years) with bilateral single missing teeth in the same arch were enrolled in this study. Each patient received an untreated implant on one side (control group, n = 34) and a photofunctionalised implant on the contralateral side (test group, n = 34). Crestal bone loss was assessed at the time of crown insertion and 1 year later. The osseointegration speed index was evaluated for both the control and test group. An independent t test was used for intergroup comparisons of crestal bone loss and osseointegration speed index. Bivariate analysis was performed for the confounding variables. Results: The test group showed a statistically significantly higher osseointegration speed index (3.07) as compared to the control group (1.29) (P < 0.01). Statistically significantly higher crestal bone loss was observed in the control group (-0.57 ± 0.41 mm) as compared to the test group (-0.27 ± 0.35 mm) (P < 0.01). The difference between mean Plaque Index and Bleeding Index in the control (0.74/0.38) and test group (0.73/0.35) was statistically insignificant (P > 0.05). A negative correlation (r = -0.272) was noted between implant diameter and crestal bone loss. A positive correlation (r = 0.402) was observed between implant length and osseointegration speed index. Conclusion: Implants with photofunctionalised surfaces reduce overall healing time and crestal bone loss. Photofunctionalisation is an effective aid for chairside conditioning of implant surfaces to achieve faster osseointegration with good crestal bone stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a recommendation system that can easily and conveniently assist collaboration seekers in finding high-level subject experts for research projects. We will accomplish this task by providing a recommender system known as the Collaboration Mapping System (CMS). The CMS maps potential collaborators with each other based on specified criteria. Due to the difficulties in finding research collaborators and the often-accidental nature of finding collaborators, it is important for university research communities to have tools to make the process more efficient and easier. This research is important for academicians and students alike because it will aid them in finding others who desire to pursue research projects that they would otherwise not be able to pursue, due to lack of knowledge and expertise.
