TL;DR: The proSA appears to be a promising shunt valve to overcome overdrainage in adolescent and adult hydrocephalus patients and the postoperative adjustability of the opening pressure level is the advantage of the new gravitational valve.
Abstract: Despite progress in shunt valve technology, CSF overdrainage is still one of the most frequent complications in shunt-treated hydrocephalus. Particularly with regard to young and adolescent patients, treatment of manifest overdrainage is complicated by several hardly influenceable factors such as increasing height and mobility. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of the new adjustable gravitational valve, proSA. Sixty-four shunt-treated young hydrocephalus patients aged 1.8–41.4 years (15.5 ± 10.5 years) suffering from clinical and/or radiological overdrainage underwent shunt revision surgery with the implantation of the new proSA valve. Clinical outcome after a 1-year follow-up period, pumping function of the valve chambers as well as the number of necessary postoperative valve adjustments were examined. Fifty-five patients completed the study as planned. All reported a significant improvement of their clinical condition; 91 % described a complete resolution in symptoms related to overdrainage. Preoperatively, more than 85 % of the valve chambers showed no or very slow refilling with CSF. After a year of proSA treatment, more than 90 % exhibited a normal valve chamber function. During the follow-up period, a total of 136 valve adjustments were necessary. None of the proSA valves had to be surgically revised. The postoperative adjustability of the opening pressure level is the advantage of the new gravitational valve. The good clinical outcome is attributed to the new valve technology. The proSA appears to be a promising shunt valve to overcome overdrainage in adolescent and adult hydrocephalus patients.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality. Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

TL;DR: Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems.
Abstract: Three parallel algorithms for classical molecular dynamics are presented. The first assigns each processor a fixed subset of atoms; the second assigns each a fixed subset of inter-atomic forces to compute; the third assigns each a fixed spatial region. The algorithms are suitable for molecular dynamics models which can be difficult to parallelize efficiently—those with short-range forces where the neighbors of each atom change rapidly. They can be implemented on any distributed-memory parallel machine which allows for message-passing of data between independently executing processors. The algorithms are tested on a standard Lennard-Jones benchmark problem for system sizes ranging from 500 to 100,000,000 atoms on several parallel supercomputers--the nCUBE 2, Intel iPSC/860 and Paragon, and Cray T3D. Comparing the results to the fastest reported vectorized Cray Y-MP and C90 algorithm shows that the current generation of parallel machines is competitive with conventional vector supercomputers even for small problems. For large problems, the spatial algorithm achieves parallel efficiencies of 90% and a 1840-node Intel Paragon performs up to 165 faster than a single Cray C9O processor. Trade-offs between the three algorithms and guidelines for adapting them to more complex molecular dynamics simulations are also discussed.
