Molecular organization of the nanoscale surface structures of the dragonfly Hemianax papuensis wing epicuticle. by Elena P Ivanova, Song Ha Nguyen, Hayden K Webb, Jafar Hasan, Vi Khanh Truong, Robert N Lamb, Xiaofei Duan, Mark J Tobin, Peter J Mahon, Russell J Crawford

“…The molecular organization of the epicuticle (the outermost layer) of insect wings is vital in the formation of the nanoscale surface patterns that are responsible for bestowing remarkable functional properties. Using a combination of spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, including Synchrotron-sourced Fourier-transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIR), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profiling and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GCMS), we have identified the chemical components that constitute the nanoscale structures on the surface of the wings of the dragonfly, Hemianax papuensis. …”

In-band network telemetry system based on high-performance packet processing architecture VPP by Tian PAN, Xingchen LIN, Jiao ZHANG, Tao HUANG, Yunjie LIU

“…An in-band network telemetry-based system was built based on VPP, a high-performance virtual network forwarding architecture/device, via reorganizing the data plane pipeline processing modules.Moreover, a network-wide telemetry mechanism was further developed via embedding source routing into the probe packet header for specifying the route of probe packets.Finally, a virtual network topology was built with performance evaluation conducted.The evaluation shows that the telemetry system can monitor the network in a high precision of every 0.13 ms, detecting link congestion in real time with minor performance overhead.Given virtual network devices have been widely deployed in data centers, the proposed scheme is expected to improve the reliability of multi-tenancy and network function virtualization in data centers via high-precision, network-wide virtual link telemetry coverage.…”
