Abstract:
BackgroundSurvivors of moderate-severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI) frequently experience trouble- some unexplained somatic symptoms, which may be attributable to autonomic dysfunction.MethodsWe conducted two cohort studies. Cohort 1 comprises msTBI patients (with controls) prospec- tively recruited from a regional referral TBI outpatient clinic, in whom we assessed subjective burden of autonomic symptoms using the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score (COMPASS31) questionnaire. Cohort 2 comprises msTBI patients who had clinical autonomic function testing, retrospectively identified from referrals to a national referral autonomics unit.ResultsCohort 1 comprises 39 msTBI patients (10F:20M, median age 40 years, range 19-76), with median time since injury 19 months (range 6-299), and 44 controls (22F:22M, median age 45, range 25-71). Patients had significantly higher mean scores than controls in the weighted total COMPASS-31 score (p<0.001), and also gastrointestinal, orthostatic and secretomotor subscores (corrected p<0.05). Total COMPASS31 score inversely correlated with subjective rating of general health (p<0.001, rs=-0.84). Cohort 2 comprises 18 msTBI patients (7F:11M, median age 44 years, range 21-64), with median time between injury and testing 57.5 months (range 2-416). Clinical autonomic function testing revealed a broad spectrum of autonomic dysfunction in 13/18 patients.DiscussionOur results provide evidence for clinically relevant autonomic dysfunction after msTBI, even at the chronic stage. We advocate for routine enquiry about potential autonomic symptoms, and demons- trate the utility of formal autonomic testing in providing diagnoses.

Abstract:
BackgroundSurvivors of moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI) frequently experience troublesome unexplained somatic symptoms. Autonomic dysfunction may contribute to these symptoms. However, there is no previous study of clinical subjective and objective autonomic dysfunction in msTBI.MethodsWe present results from two groups of patients with msTBI. The first, a case–control comparative study, comprises prospectively recruited msTBI outpatients, in whom we measured burden of autonomic symptoms using the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score (COMPASS31) questionnaire. The second, a descriptive case series, comprises retrospectively identified msTBI outpatients who had formal clinical autonomic function testing at a national referral autonomics unit.ResultsGroup 1 comprises 39 patients with msTBI (10F:20M, median age 40 years, range 19–76), median time from injury 19 months (range 6–299) and 44 controls (22F:22M, median age 45, range 25–71). Patients had significantly higher mean weighted total COMPASS-31 score than controls (p<0.001), and higher gastrointestinal, orthostatic and secretomotor subscores (corrected p<0.05).

Clinical autonomic function testing revealed a broad spectrum of autonomic dysfunction in 13/18 patients.ConclusionsThere is clinically relevant autonomic dysfunction after msTBI, even at the chronic stage. We advocate for routine enquiry about potential autonomic symptoms, and demonstrate the utility of formal autonomic testing in providing diagnoses. Larger prospective studies are warranted, which should explore the causes and clinical correlates of post-TBI autonomic dysfunction.

LABURPENA: Lan honetan, jurisdikziopeko uretan dagoen itsaspeko kultura-ondarearekin lotutako gai juridiko garrantzitsuenetako batzuk azaltzen dira. Hain zuzen ere: ondare hori osatzen duten ondasunei jabari publikoaren kontzeptua eta erregimena aplikatzea, atzerriko bandera duten estatu-itsasontziei izan ezik; jabari publikokoak diren itsaspeko kulturaondasunen estatu-titulartasuna; eta jurisdikziopeko uretako kultura-ondarearekin lotutako esku-hartzeetarako eskumena autonomia-erkidegoena izatea. Azken horri dagokionez, oso salbuespen zehatz batzuk kenduta, autonomia-erkidegoek dute eskumen hori, eremua Estatuko jabari publikokoa edo autonomia-erkidegoaren lurraldekoa den kontuan hartu gabe. RESUMEN: En el presente trabajo se exponen algunas de las cuestiones juridicas mas relevantes relacionadas con el patrimonio cultural submarino sito en el mar territorial. En concreto, la aplicacion a los bienes integrantes del mismo del concepto y regimen del dominio publico, con la salvedad de los buques de Estado de pabellon extranjero; la titularidad estatal de los bienes culturales submarinos que son de dominio publico; y que, salvo excepciones muy concretas, la competencia para autorizar las intervenciones dirigidas al patrimonio cultural sito en el mar territorial corresponde a las comunidades autonomas, independientemente de que el espacio pertenezca al dominio publico estatal y no forme parte del territorio autonomico. ABSTRACT: This present work explains some of the legal issues related to the submarine cultural heritage by the territorial sea. Specifically, the application to the goods that are part of it of the concept and legal regime of public domain, save the State ships with foreign flag; the State ownership of submarine cultural goods of public domain; and save very specific exceptions, the power to authorize the interventions over the cultural heritage by the territorial sea belongs to the autonomous communities, regardless of that space belongs to the state public domain and not to the autonomic territory.

Este nuevo marco normativo, que parece consolidarse por un auge discursivo en torno a la necesaria implicacion de la ciudadania en las decisiones publicas, encuentra su inspiracion en las declaraciones efectuadas por los Estatutos de Autonomia de ultima generacion, profundizando en la calidad del ejercicio de este derecho a traves de un regimen juridico. El presente trabajo trata de analizar los aspectos formales y materiales mas importantes del reciente desarrollo legislativo autonomico, reflexionando sobre el nuevo derecho de participacion desde una perspectiva teorica y practica. ABSTRACT: During last times there has been an emergence of a ≪normative boom≫ by the Autonomous Communities that have started an authentic race to pass acts whose scope is to renew the right of citizen’s participation. This new normative framework, which seems to become established due to a discursive height around the necessary involvement of citizenship in political decisions, finds its inspiration in the statements set forth in the last generation Statutes of Autonomy, by delving in the quality of the exercise of this right by the means of a legal regime. This work deals with the analysis of the most relevant formal and material features in the recent autonomic legislative implementation, by thinking over the new right of participation from a theoretical and practical perspective.

Abstract:
"Diastolic dysfunction" is thought to be an indication of "diabetic cardiomyopathy" ", and "diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy" is linked to increased mortality risk. The goal of this study was to see how "diastolic dysfunction" and "cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy" are linked both of which were diagnosed in accordance with the guidelines. Methods: We assessed at seventy three participants Whose elective coronary angiography was referred, Diabetes mellitus was present in twenty-six of them, and twenty four of whom had impaired glucose tolerance, the other twenty-three people had normal "glucose tolerance". To identify "cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy", "autonomic function" tests were done, and "tissue Doppler imaging echocardiography" was employed to confirm "diastolic dysfunction". Results Autonomical cardiovascular neuropathy has been detected with diabetes type 2 diabetes in (28.8%) and with glucose-impaired tolerance in 6 (12.5%) patients. "Diastolic dysfunction" was found in 81 and 33 percent of patients with and without "cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy", respectively (P <0.001). "Early diastolic relaxation velocity" (Em) was considerably less in comparison to the group without cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy. ("5.4 0.9 vs. 7.3 2.1 cm⁄ s;P; P 0.001"), Moreover, the E⁄Em ratio was much higher. ("13.6 4.6 vs. 10.3 3.4 cm⁄ s;P, 0.001"). The significance of these data remained after controlling for "age, gender, coronary artery disease, hypertension, and HbA1c". In individuals with and without "cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy", significant "diastolic dysfunction" was found in 33 and 15% of patients, accordingly (P = 0.001).

Abstract:
The most common hypertension is essential hypertention influenced by genetic factors. Autonomicic nervous activity is influenced by several factors including genetic. This study aimed to determine the relationship between family history of hypertension and autonomic nervous system activity. In this observational analytic cross sectional study, out of 124 a students of the Medical Faculty, University Islam Sultan Agung Semarang 44 students were included using simple stratified method consisting of 22 men and 22 women aged over 20 years. The subjects were asked for family history of hypertension, orthostatic and valsalva examination. 25 students (56.8%) had a family history of hypertension and experienced imbalance of autonomic nervous activity. Out of 19 students (43.2%) without a history of hypertension, 10 people (22.7%) had a balance of autonomic nervous system activity and 9 people (20.5%) experienced imbalance of autonomic nervous system activity. Fisher correlation test results showed a significant association (p < 0.05) and correlation test of Lamda resulted in p value of 0.100, indicating a very week positive correlation. The study concludes that there was a correlation between a family history of hypertension and on autonomic nervous system activity with a very weak relationship.

Abstract:
This thesis introduces the concept of autonomic visualisation, where principles of autonomic systems are brought to the field of visualisation infrastructure. Problems in visualisation have a specific set of requirements which are not always met by existing systems. The first half of this thesis explores a specific problem for large scale visualisation; that of data management. Visualisation algorithms have somewhat different requirements to other external memory problems, due to the fact that they often require access to all, or a large subset, of the data in a way that is highly dependent on the view. This thesis proposes a knowledge-based approach to pre-fetching in this context, and presents evidence that such an approach yields good performance. The knowledge based approach is incorporated into a five-layer model, which provides a systematic way of categorising and designing out-of-core, or external memory, systems. This model is demonstrated with two example implementations, on in the local and one in the remote context. The second half explores autonomic visualisation in the more general case. A simulation tool, created for the purpose of designing autonomic visualisation infrastructure is presented. This tool, SimEAC, provides a way of facilitating the development of techniques for managing large-scale visualisation systems. The abstract design of the simulation system, as well as details of the implementation are presented. The architecture of the simulator is explored, and then the system is evaluated in a number of case studies indicating some of the ways in which it can be used. The simulator provides a framework for experimentation and rapid prototyping of large scale autonomic systems.

Abstract:

Large-scale deployment of IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs (WLANs) remains a significant challenge. Many access points (APs) must be deployed and interconnected without a-priori knowledge of the demand. We consider that the deployment should be iterative, as follows. At first, access points are deployed to achieve partial coverage. Then, usage statistics are collected while the network operates. Overloaded and under-utilized APs would be identified, giving the opportunity to relocate, add or remove APs. In this thesis, we propose extensions to the WLAN architecture that would make our vision of iterative deployment feasible.

One line of work focuses on self-configuration, which deals with building a WLAN from APs deployed without planning, and coping with mismatches between offered load and available capacity. Self-configuration is considered at three levels. At the network level, we propose a new distribution system that forms a WLAN from a set of APs connected to different IP networks and supports AP auto-configuration, link-layer mobility, and sharing infrastructure between operators. At the inter-cell level, we design a load-balancing scheme for overlapping APs that increases the network throughput and reduces the cell delay by evenly distributing the load. We also suggest how to reduce the handoff time by early detection and fast active scanning. At the intra-cell level, we present a distributed admission control that protects cells against congestion by blocking stations whose MAC service time would be above a set threshold.

Another line of work deals with self-deployment and investigates how the network can assist in improving its continuous deployment by identifying the reasons for low cell throughput. One reason may be poor radio conditions. A new performance figure, the Multi-Rate Performance Index, is introduced to measure the efficiency of radio channel usage. Our measurements show that it identifies cells affected by bad radio conditions. An additional reason may be limited performance of some AP models. We present a method to measure the upper bound of an AP’s throughput and its dependence on offered load and orientation. Another reason for low throughput may be excessive distance between users and APs. Accurate positioning of users in a WLAN would permit optimizing the location and number of APs. We analyze the limitations of the two most popular range estimation techniques when used in WLANs: received signal strength and time of arrival. We find that the latter could perform better but the technique is not feasible due to the low resolution of the frame timestamps in the WLAN cards.

The combination of self-configuration and self-deployment enables the autonomic operation of WLANs.

Abstract:
Business processes in large organisations are typically poorly understood and complex in structure. Adapting such a business process to changing internal and external conditions requires costly and time consuming investigative work and change management. In contrast autonomic systems are able to adapt to changing environments and continue to function without external intervention. Enabling business processes to adapt to changing conditions in the same way would be extremely valuable. This work investigates the potential to self-heal individual business process executions in generic business processes. Classical and Immune-inspired classification algorithms are tested for their predictive utility with Decision Trees augmented with MetaCost and Immunos 99 exhibiting the best performance respectively. An approach to deriving recovery strategies from historical process data in the absence of a process model is presented and tested for suitability. Also presented is an approach to selecting the best of the determined recovery strategies for application to a business process execution, which is then tested to determine the impact of its parameters on the quality of selected recoveries.

Abstract:
Autonomic Computing (AC) aims at solving the problem of managing the rapidly-growing complexity of Information Technology systems, by creating self-managing systems. In this thesis, we have surveyed the progress of the AC field, and studied the requirements, models and architectures of AC. The commonly recognized AC requirements are four properties - self-configuring, self-healing, self-optimizing, and self-protecting. The recommended software architecture is the MAPE-K model containing four modules, namely - monitor, analyze, plan and execute, as well as the knowledge repository. In the modern software marketplace, Java Management Extensions (JMX) has facilitated one function of the AC requirements - monitoring. Using JMX, we implemented a package that attempts to assist programming for AC features including socket management, logging, and recovery of distributed computation. In the experiments, we have not only realized the powerful Java capabilities that are unknown to many educators, we also illustrated the feasibility of learning AC in senior computer science courses.

Full text
Abstract:
Disorders of the autonomic nervous system constitute serious complications of spinal cord injury (SCI) and their treatment is usually highly prioritised by spinal patients. Among these, autonomic dysreflexia and impaired thermoregulation are potentially life threatening conditions and require effective management. Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs), progenitor cells and polymeric scaffolds have been tested in animal models of SCI and some of them have been considered for clinical trials. However, evaluation of the effect of such interventions on autonomic functions has received only rudimentary attention and would require a more thorough experimental assessment before the methods are utilised in human patients. This thesis tested two potential therapeutic strategies for autonomic dysreflexia and examined disorders of thermoregulatory functions in a rat model of spinal cord transection. Magnitude and duration of autonomic dysreflexia were evaluated with radio telemetry in spinalised animals treated with (i) implants of OECs and olfactory neurosphere-derived cells seeded in poly(lactic co glycolic) porous scaffolds or with (ii) transplants of OECs alone. (iii) Effects of SCI and of OECs on the morphology of sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPNs; which are involved in pathogenesis of autonomic dysreflexia) stained for NADPH diaphorase were examined. (iv) Doppler ultrasonography and infrared thermography were used to assess responses of tail blood flow and surface temperature to cold. Transplants of OECs alone, but not in combination with olfactory neurosphere-derived cells and polymeric scaffolds, resulted in significantly shortened episodes of autonomic dysreflexia. This may be attributed to the alterations to the morphology of SPNs adjacent to the lesion: a transient increase in the morphometric features of the SPNs was evoked by spinal cord transection and this was further altered by transplantation of OECs. The thesis also showed that local responses of tail blood flow and temperature to cold were not abolished by complete SCI suggesting that temperature homeostasis could still be maintained in response to cold. It is hypothesised that OECs facilitate improved recovery from autonomic dysreflexia through alteration of the morphology of SPNs. Furthermore, it is suggested that the role of the tail in heat conservation can be regulated by mechanisms that are independent of the descendent neural control from supraspinal centres.

Abstract:
The autonomic nervous system innervates and influences every organ in the body through two major efferent pathways; the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Autonomic dysfunction, especially orthostatic hypotension (OH) and olfactory dysfunction, are commonly present in a variety of neurological disorders, particularly, multiple system atrophy (MSA) and allied disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF) and can significantly impact quality of life and cause significant morbidity. Similarly, non-motor symptoms have been increasingly recognized in PD. The overlapping autonomic features of PD, PAF and MSA, e.g., OH, can sometimes make it difficult to differentiate a diagnosis between these conditions. The further evaluation of autonomic function, e.g., cardiovascular, olfactory and gastrointestinal function, in patients with primary chronic autonomic failure disorders could offer better diagnostic accuracy, improve the understanding of disease progression and inform the development of treatments. Cardiovascular autonomic function screening tests are commonly used to confirm a diagnosis of autonomic failure, e.g., orthostatic hypotension, but OH is not often reliable for distinguishing between PD and MSA. Novel indices of cardiovascular autonomic function in patients with chronic autonomic failure have therefore been evaluated as well as the severity of olfactory dysfunction and other non-motor (e.g., daily activities and depression) symptoms in MSA, PD and PAF. Results demonstrated that baroreflex sensitivity and blood pressure recovery time (BRPT) in response to the Valsalva Manoeuvre are useful for differentiating MSA from PD with autonomic failure (PD+AF). BPRT was also significantly prolonged in PD patients compared to healthy controls. In addition, an association of BPRT and disease duration in PD also suggests that this index may be useful for monitoring disease progression in PD. Other findings indicated that assessing olfactory function is also helpful for distinguishing between PD, MSA and PAF. A greater degree of depression and impairment of daily activities in MSA relative to PD and PAF were also evident. In order to further investigate the presenting symptoms and features of PAF, a time when diagnosis is often still unclear, and other disorders, such as MSA, can be suspected, the clinical characteristics and laboratory investigations, in a large cohort of PAF patients were examined. Results indicated that abnormal white matter lesions are prevalent in PAF. Furthermore, gastrointestinal symptoms were also evident in PAF and can also occur in other autonomic disorders, e.g., MSA. Using electrogastrography, impaired indexes of gastric motility were also evident in PAF.

Abstract:
Apache Spark è un framework open source per la computazione distribuita su larga scala, caratterizzato da un engine in-memory che permette prestazioni superiori a soluzioni concorrenti nell’elaborazione di dati a riposo (batch) o in movimento (streaming). In questo lavoro presenteremo alcune tecniche progettate e implementate per migliorare l’elasticità e l’adattabilità del framework rispetto a modifiche dinamiche nell’ambiente di esecuzione o nel workload. Lo scopo primario di tali tecniche è di permettere ad applicazioni concorrenti di condividere le risorse fisiche disponibili nell’infrastruttura cluster sottostante in modo efficiente. Il contesto nel quale le applicazioni distribuite vengono eseguite difficilmente può essere considerato statico: le componenti hardware possono fallire, i processi possono interrompersi, gli utenti possono allocare risorse aggiuntive in modo imprevedibile nel tentativo di accelerare la computazione o di allegerire il carico di lavoro. Infine, non soltanto le risorse fisiche ma anche i dati in input possono variare di dimensione e complessità durante l’esecuzione, così che sia dati sia risorse non possano essere considerati statici. Una configurazione immutabile del cluster non riuscirà a ottenere la migliore efficienza possibile per tutti i differenti carichi di lavoro. Ne consegue che un framework per il calcolo distribuito che sia "consapevole" delle modifiche ambientali e delle modifiche al workload e che sia in grado di adattarsi a esse puo risultare piu performante di un framework che permetta unicamente configurazioni statiche. Gli esperimenti da noi compiuti con applicazioni Big Data altamente parallelizzabili mostrano come il costo della soluzione proposta sia minimo e come la nostra version di Spark più dinamica e adattiva possa portare a benefici in termini di flessibilità, scalabilità ed efficienza.

Abstract:
Humans have a remarkable ability to cope with and survive exposure to hypoxia. Some have suggested a benefit in certain physiological systems in response to such exposure. However, the physiological response to hypoxia is multifaceted and includes an orchestrated response from many autonomic mechanisms. Thus, the purpose of this thesis was to more fully understand the human autonomic response to hypoxia as an integrated unit. Furthermore, pathological models of hypoxia provide evidence that suggests hypoxia can result in an autonomic response that outlasts the hypoxic stimulus. However, the persistent effect of hypoxia is only evident in certain reflexes, although comorbidities that accompany a pathological model complicate interpretation. Therefore, employing a healthy human model with continued measurement of physiological measures in the post-hypoxia period provides a more complete understanding of the integrated human physiological response to hypoxia. This Doctoral thesis is comprised of four separate investigations, each focusing on autonomic control both during and following an acute hypoxic exposure. In the first study (Chapter 2), the microneurography technique was used to demonstrate that the chemoreflex plays an important role in persistent sympathoexcitation following acute isocapnic hypoxia. With the use of the spontaneous baroreflex analysis technique, the follow-up study (Chapter 3) implicated a resetting of the arterial baroreflex that works to permit the persistent sympathoexcitation. The focus of the third study (Chapter 4) was on cerebrovascular control during fluctuations in blood pressure via bolus injections of vasoactive drugs. There was an improvement in cerebral autoregulation to increases in blood pressure following acute isocapnic hypoxia. The final study (Chapter 5) considered the role of carbon dioxide on hypoxic cerebral autoregulation, and found an impairment in isocapnic hypoxia but no effect in poikilocapnic hypoxia. The findings from this series of studies demonstrate the acute and persistent effects of short-term hypoxia, and the integrated nature in which autonomic mechanisms orchestrate the human physiological response to hypoxia.
