Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Power, Performance, and Thermal Management for High-Performance Systems [PDF]
2007 IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium, 2007 In future high-performance systems it will be essential to balance often-conflicting objectives of performance, power, energy, and temperature under variable workload and environmental conditions. In this work, we describe a goal-driven approach that conveys multiple expectations to managers that dynamically tune operating states to best meet those ...
