Dallas-based cloud provider continues innovation

2013-05-21

DALLAS, TX, May 21, 2013 (Press-News.org) CyberlinkASP, the leader in hosted virtual desktop and private cloud solutions, today announced the completion of the company's testing and development of virtual desktop infrastructure with Ubuntu Linux. This offering is ideal for anyone requiring a custom and secure Linux experience.

"You can't treat Linux like a low-cost alternative to Windows, it plays a critical role in too many business functions. To ignore and to neglect its relevance alienates a large potential market," said Mason Cooper, Vice President of Information Technology, CyberlinkASP. "By offering Linux hosted desktops alongside our proven Windows hosted desktops, we are able to bring companies seeking a true hosted experience under one cohesive umbrella," said Cooper.

Bringing the Linux experience to the world of virtual desktops makes adopting the bring-your-own-device approach both seamless and comfortable to the end user.

Cracking the ice code

2013-05-20

What happened the last time a vegetated Earth shifted from an extremely cold climate to desert-like conditions? And what does it tell us about climate change today? John Isbell is on a quest to coax that information from the geology of the southernmost portions of the Earth. It won't be easy, because the last transition from "icehouse to greenhouse" occurred between 335 and 290 million years ago. An expert in glaciation from the late Paleozoic Era, Isbell is challenging many assumptions about the way drastic climate change naturally unfolds. The research helps form ...

Earth's iron core is surprisingly weak, Stanford researchers say

2013-05-20

The massive ball of iron sitting at the center of Earth is not quite as "rock-solid" as has been thought, say two Stanford mineral physicists. By conducting experiments that simulate the immense pressures deep in the planet's interior, the researchers determined that iron in Earth's inner core is only about 40 percent as strong as previous studies estimated. This is the first time scientists have been able to experimentally measure the effect of such intense pressure – as high as 3 million times the pressure Earth's atmosphere exerts at sea level – in a laboratory. A ...

Immune protein could stop diabetes in its tracks

2013-05-20

Melbourne researchers have identified an immune protein that has the potential to stop or reverse the development of type 1 diabetes in its early stages, before insulin-producing cells have been destroyed. The discovery has wider repercussions, as the protein is responsible for protecting the body against excessive immune responses, and could be used to treat, or even prevent, other immune disorders such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Professor Len Harrison, Dr Esther Bandala-Sanchez and Dr Yuxia Zhang led the research team from the Walter and Eliza ...

Competition in the quantum world

2013-05-20

This news release is available in German. "When water boils, its molecules are released as vapor. We call this change of the physical state of matter a phase transition," explains Sebastian Diehl from the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Innsbruck. Together with his colleagues from the Institute for Experimental Physics and the theorist Markus Mueller from the Complutense University of Madrid, he studied the transition between two quantum mechanical orders in a way never before observed. The quantum physicists in Innsbruck use a new device ...

Diabetes drug tested in Parkinson's disease patients

2013-05-20

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a degenerative neurological disorder marked by a progressive loss of motor control. Despite intensive research, there are currently no approved therapies that have been demonstrated to alter the progression of the disease. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Dr. Thomas Foltynie and colleagues at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London investigated the use of a drug approved for diabetes care, Exenatide, in PD patients. PD patients were divided into two groups: 20 patients received Exenatide injections ...

Women with severe injuries are less likely than men to be treated in a trauma center

2013-05-20

ATS 2013, PHILADELPHIA - Women are less likely than men to receive care in a trauma center after severe injury, according to a new study of almost 100,000 Canadian patients. "Gender-based disparities in access to healthcare services in general have been recognized for some time and evidence is emerging that these disparities extend to the treatment of severe injuries in trauma centers," says lead author Andrea Hill. MSc, PhD, a post-doctoral fellow at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada. "Our study confirms and expands on ...

Source of infection affects hospital mortality in septic shock patients in the ICU

2013-05-20

In ICU patients who have septic shock, the anatomic source of infection has a strong effect on the chances of survival, according to a new study from researchers in Canada. "Understanding the local infection source in patients with septic shock may influence treatment strategies and clinical outcomes," said researcher Peter Dodek, MD MHSc, professor of critical care medicine at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. "Accordingly, we examined the relationship between anatomic source of infection and hospital mortality in nearly 8,000 patients who had septic ...

New study identifies risk factors for depression among COPD patients

2013-05-20

ATS 2013, PHILADELPHIA ─ Patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) typically suffer from depression more frequently than those without COPD, resulting in higher levels of disability and illness and increasing the overall healthcare burden for the COPD population. Now, a study from researchers in Argentina indicates female COPD patients and patients who experience significant shortness of breath may have the greatest risk for developing depression. The results of the study will be presented at the ATS 2013 International Conference. "About ...

Stress test may help predict increased mortality risk in sleep apnea patients

2013-05-20

ATS 2013, PHILADELPHIA – Many studies have shown that men and women who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) - a disorder that causes breathing to halt intermittently during sleep – have a higher mortality rate than those who do not have the disorder. Now, a study from researchers at the Cleveland Clinic shows that OSA patients who also have poor functional capacity have an even greater risk of mortality and suggests that an assessment of functional capacity in this population can help physicians identify patients most at risk for death. The results of the study ...
