Portal practitioners face the difficulties of creating effective information architectures for portals, dashboards, and tile-based information environments using only flat portlets. This article introduces the idea of a system of standardized building blocks that can effectively support growth in content, functionality, and users over time. In enterprise and other large scale social settings, using standardized components allows for the creation of a library of tiles that can be shared across communities of users. It then outlines the design principles underlying the building block system, and the simple guidelines for combining blocks together to create any type of tile-based environment.

This paper introduces an extremely lightweight (with just over around two hundred thousand parameters) and computationally efficient CNN architecture, named CharTeC-Net (Character-based Text Classification Network), for character-based text classification problems. This new architecture is composed of four building blocks for feature extraction. Each of these building blocks, except the last one, uses 1 × 1 pointwise convolutional layers to add more nonlinearity to the network and to increase the dimensions within each building block. In addition, shortcut connections are used in each building block to facilitate the flow of gradients over the network, but more importantly to ensure that the original signal present in the training data is shared across each building block. Experiments on eight standard large-scale text classification and sentiment analysis datasets demonstrate CharTeC-Net’s superior performance over baseline methods and yields competitive accuracy compared with state-of-the-art methods, although CharTeC-Net has only between 181,427 and 225,323 parameters and weighs less than 1 megabyte.

Low Order

In the light of a recently derived evolution equation for genetic algorithms we consider the schema theorem and the building block hypothesis. We derive a schema theorem based on the concept of effective fitness showing that schemata of higher than average effective fitness receive an exponentially increasing number of trials over time. The equation makes manifest the content of the building block hypothesis showing how fit schemata are constructed from fit sub-schemata. However, we show that, generically, there is no preference for short, low-order schemata. In the case where schema reconstruction is favored over schema destruction, large schemata tend to be favored. As a corollary of the evolution equation we prove Geiringer's theorem.

The Creation

The design and large-scale fabrication of ordered arrays consisting of advanced and well-defined building blocks such as quantum dots, nanorods, and nanowires is essential to the creation of new devices based on nanoscience. A concept as well as a growth model and a thin film technique have been developed by the author to contribute to these challenges. These ideas and synthesis method led to the creation of a new generation of functional materials from aqueous solutions with designed morphology and orientation, which are in better adequacy with their applications. Nanomaterials are growing directly onto various substrates by heteronucleation from the thermohydrolysis of aqueous metal salt precursors. Although this bottom-up technique allows the generation of anisotropic and oriented building blocks of various length scales and on many types of substrates, it is carried out without template, surfactant, applied field, or undercoating. Therefore, high-purity, low-cost, and large-scale fabrication of advanced nanomaterials is achieved. In addition, the direct contact growth between 1-D building blocks and their substrate is an essential feature to take full advantage of oriented nanorods, that is, a direct path for electron/hole transport. This specific conformation is of particular interest in developing more efficient devices such as sensors and photovoltaic cells.

Synthetic Approaches

The enantiomeric forms of the alcohol (2,6,6-trimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)methanol are potential chiral building blocks for the stereoselective synthesis of different natural terpenes. Here, we describe their preparation by means of two different synthetic approaches. The first is based on the stereospecific (+)-10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA)-catalyzed cyclization of (R)- and (S)-2-methyl-5-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl)pentan-2-ol, which were in turn synthesized from (R)- and (S)-linalool, respectively. The latter monoterpenes are easily available from the chiral pool, with different optical purity. As our synthesis makes use of the intermediate 2,6-dimethyloct-7-ene-2,6-diol, whose enantiopurity can be improved through fractional crystallization, we obtained (2,6,6-trimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)methanol enantiomers in an almost enantiopure form. The second synthetic approach is based on the lipase-mediated resolution of the aforementioned tetrahydropyranyl alcohol, which was prepared in racemic form starting from the industrial intermediate, dehydrolinalool. In this work, we report a large-scale resolution procedure that exploits the opposite enantioselectivity of Novozym® 435 lipase and lipase AK in the acetylation reaction of (2,6,6-trimethyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)methanol. The two enantiomeric forms of the latter alcohol were employed for the first stereoselective synthesis of both enantiomers of the flavor, linaloyl oxide (2,2,6-trimethyl-6-vinyltetrahydro-2H-pyran).

Abstract. Intraindividual variability, along with the more frequently studied between-person variability, has been argued to be one of the basic building blocks of emotional experience. The aim of the current study is to examine whether intraindividual variability in affect predicts tiredness in daily life. Intraindividual variability in affect was studied with the experience sampling method in a group of 110 participants (aged between 19 and 84 years) during 14 consecutive days on seven randomly determined occasions per day. The results suggest that affect variability is a stable construct over time and situations. Our findings also demonstrate that intraindividual variability in affect has a unique role in predicting increased levels of tiredness at the momentary level as well at the level of individuals.

The facile preparation of three regioisomeric thienopyrrolocarbazoles applying a convenient C-H activation approach is presented. Derived from indolo[3,2,1-<i>jk</i>]carbazole, the incorporation of thiophene into the triarylamine framework significantly impacted the molecular properties of the parent scaffold. The developed thienopyrrolocarbazoles enrich the family of triarylamine donors and constitute a novel building block for functional organic materials.
