I have some comments on your tentative plan you talked about in the last
mail. In order for our consulting network to be of real value, its
substance has to be industrial, although its form can be academic. There
are just too many organizations energized at promoting academic exchange
programs between US and China. There are dozens of conferences and tons
of summer workshops each year. Do these acativities have any impact on
Chinese industry? Very little. If there are any, must be very insignificant
compared with the wave of joint ventures, foreign investment and
company's moving in. What China's current economy can absorbe is the
technology which can directly be applied, not necessarily latest.
Most of our friends in the US are Ph.Ds, highly research oriented, whose
knowlodge are not very practical from certain point of view. Therefore,
it is important that each of our network member should quickly pick up
some applied stuff and broaden one's horizon (and it is easy compared
with a doctor thesis) so that when we collect projects, we know we are
talking about and we know what to do, not just by our title or by our
status of being in the US.
I do agree with you on the coroperation with Chinese universities and
some other reserach institutes. There are several benifits: First, we
need to establish initial connection with Chinese officials through the
door of science and technology which can be done with the help of local
chinese scientists. Second, we can published our papers in chinese
through their program to create our publicity. Third, universities can
provide plenty well qualified cheap labors (those graduate students).
Universities won't getmuch funding from either science foundation nor
industry sponsored projects for various reasons. If we can get some
projects (according to US standard), we only need to split a very
small piece of our budget to the local partner and they will enjoy
it very much. This is what I learnt when I visited Academia Sinica
last November.
I do have two papers about transportation which can be considred as
candidates for publication in Chinese. Actually one of them I will
presenting to the transportation science group in the upcomming
Chinese IEEE meeting in Tien Jing this summer.
Enjoy sunshine in Hawaii. You can't imagine how awful the weather
is here in the north east.

#1. THE DISCOVERY OF ELEMENT 106 HAS BEEN CONFIRMED. First discovered at the
LBL HILAC machine in 1974, element 106 has gone unnamed because of priority
disputes with Russian scientists. In 1992, the International Union of Pure and
Applied Physics (IUPAP) finally gave credit for discovery to the LBL group,
but a separate protocol in 1976 suggested that the naming of the element
should await a confirmation experiment. Such a measurement has only now been
made. Scientists using the LBL 88-inch Cyclotron bombarded Cf-249 atoms with
O-18 ions, forming element 106 (atomic weight 263), which decayed with a
lifetime of 0.9 sec. into Rf-259 plus an alpha particle. [From: Physical

#2. OPTICAL LATTICES are three-dimensional ensembles of tens of millions of
atoms held together in a crystal-like array not by the customary action of
chemical bonds but with light waves from lasers. This pattern of trapped atoms
cannot properly be called a crystal because in current experiments only about
one in ten possible lattice sites are occupied by an atom. Furthermore, the
atoms in optical lattices are hundreds of times further apart than in ordinary
crystals. As a result this novel form of matter is a billion times more
diffuse than conventional crystals. Nevertheless, there is much more order
in an optical lattice than in "optical molasses," in which atoms are confined
within an amorphous glob by laser light. To make a true lattice, scientists
at labs around the world---at NIST, the University of Munich, and the Ecole
Normale Superieure (ENS) in Paris---must first cool the atoms to low
temperatures (2.5 microkelvins in the case of the ENS experiment with cesium
atoms) so that the relatively weak electric fields of the laser beams can trap
the atoms. Optical lattices may be useful in establishing a more precise form
of atomic clock, if an atomic-transition signal can be strengthened by
increasing the density of atoms in the lattice, or (in a two-dimensional form)
as a means of inscribing 10-nm-wide features on integrated circuits. [From:
New Scientist, 29 Jan. Forwarded by: <pfs2@aip.org>]
_ _ _ _
#3. ATOMIC DREIDLS, structures resembling the child's toy top of that name,
may exist at the intersections of edge dislocations at a Ge-Si semiconductor
interface. Like a game of musical chairs, the process of matching up planes
of atoms in a layer of germanium with planes in a silicon layer (whose lattice
constant is slightly different) will result in the termination of certain
planes at the interface. The termination lines are called edge dislocations
and they form a checkerboard pattern at the interface. New simulations show
that 18-atom dreidl-shaped structures (with half the atoms on the germanium
side of the interface, half on the silicon side) are to be found at the
intersections of the dislocations. The dreidls constitute a sort of lattice
with a spacing of 96 angstroms and a density of up to 10**12/sq.cm. The Oak
Ridge scientists performing the simulations (contact Ted Kaplan, 615-574-5790)
believe that dreidls may be electrically active, a property that might be
significant for electronics applications. Future x-ray scattering and
photoluminesence experiments may be able to verify the existence of these
structures. [From: Physical Review Letters, Upcoming article by: Mark

4. UCB/USL Lawsuit Settled .................................................74
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
_From: (Keith Bostic), <bostic@vangogh.CS.Berkeley.EDU>, 02/08/94
Subject: UCB/USL lawsuit settled
UNIX System Laboratories, Inc. and the University of California, Berkeley have
announced they have reached an agreement resolving their disputes. The
settlement clears the way for the University to release a new, unencumbered
version of the Berkeley 4.4 BSD operating system software, to be called 4.4
BSD-Lite.
The University of California was one of the earliest licensees of UNIX
operating system software, originally developed at AT&T's Bell Laboratories.
In the 1980s, Berkeley's Computer Systems Research Group issued a series of
"Berkeley Software Distributions" containing modifications to the UNIX
software. However, because of licensing restrictions, public access to the
source code for many of those modifications has been limited to firms holding
licenses from USL, which acquired the rights to the UNIX system from AT&T.
In July 1991, the University issued the "Second Networking Release," also
known as Net2, which was intended to make available to the public those
portions of the Berkeley Software Distributions which were not subject to
license restrictions. However, USL brought a lawsuit against the University,
claiming that portions of the release contained restricted material. The
University denied USL's claims. It also brought a separate action against USL
alleging that USL had violated the terms of its Berkeley Software
Distribution, also known as BSD, license agreements by failing to give the
University credit for certain material in the UNIX release.
Over the past several months, attorneys and computer scientists representing
the University and USL have worked together in an effort to reach a compromise
on their disputes. The result of these efforts will be a new, unencumbered
version of the latest Berkeley Software Distribution called 4.4 BSD-Lite which
will retain virtually all of the functionality of the Second Networking
Release along with a number of enhancements from the University's latest 4.4
BSD release.
The settlement restricts further use and distribution of certain files in the
Second Networking Release and requires that certain files in 4.4 BSD-Lite
include a USL copyright notice. In addition to providing several
enhancements, the new 4.4 BSD-Lite Release will replace most of the restricted
files and incorporates all the agreed-upon modifications and notices. Thus,
4.4 BSD-Lite will not require a license from nor payment of royalties to USL.
The University strongly recommends that 4.4 BSD-Lite be substituted for Net2.
Although it has denied the University's claims, USL has also agreed to affix
the University's copyright notice to certain files distributed with future
releases of the UNIX system and to give credit to the University for material
derived from BSD releases which have been included in the UNIX system.
Copies of the source code for 4.4 BSD-Lite may be obtained from the University
at nominal cost. Source code copies and further information on 4.4 BSD-Lite
and the restrictions on Net2 may be obtained from the Computer Systems
Research Group at (510) 642-7780. Information may also be obtained from USL's
licensing offices at 1-800-828-UNIX.

_From: (Rob Kolstad), <kolstad@BSDI.COM>, 02/07/94
Subject: USL vs. BSDI Lawsuit Settled
The USL vs. BSDI lawsuit was settled on Friday, February 4, 1994. The text
of the joint press release reads:
UNIX System Laboratories, Inc./Novell Corporation (Novell) and
Berkeley Software Design, Inc. (BSDI) announce the settlement of
litigation based upon BSDI's distribution of its computer software
product known as BSD/386.
BSDI has agreed to substitute a port of the University of
California's forthcoming new release to be known as 4.4 BSD(Lite)
for BSD/386. For a limited period of time, BSDI may continue to
distribute its BSD/386 product, although certain portions of the
code may be distributed in binary form.
All other terms of the settlement are confidential.

_From: (Chaides), <chaides@enuxsa.eas.asu.edu>, 02/12/94
If you want to learn how to get a good job now and keep on getting good jobs
well into the 21st Century, you'd better read, "2001, A Work Life Odyssey."
"2001, A Work Life Odyssey" subtitled, "How to Get and Keep 21st Century
Jobs," helps you take yourself on an imaginary journey into the future world
of work.
The Odyssey Worksheets make it easy for you to close your eyes and play three
vastly different movie stories of your work life over and over in your mind.
You see yourself on these journeys---first, totally unprepared, no education,
no training, and no job skills, "Traveling through the world intellectually
naked."
Second, you see yourself traveling through your work life partially or just
barely prepared. All you have is your college education and some job skills.
On your third try, you use the worksheets to design and build a work life map
for yourself.This time, you see what you need to do to have a successful work
if you prepare for a work life that will end when you want it to.
With so much information being thrown at you (all of us), you shouldn't try
to carry a plan this important in our head. You need to write it down and
review it often.
"2001, A Work Life Odyssey" is not a book. It's a transcript of a workshop
led by Ken Chapman. Getting this transcript, helps us stay focused on our
work lives and from what we hear you saying, we think it will help you.
Try it.
To get a copy of the "2001, A Work Life Odyssey" transcript with the Odyssey
Worksheets, send $12 plus $3 shipping and handling to:

+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
#1. LEPTOQUARKS HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND at the Tevatron. Certain theories seeking
to unify the electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces hold that in addition to
the known families of elementary particles--the quarks and the leptons--there
should exist another family, the leptoquarks, which would have both lepton and
quark-like attributes. Scientists using the D0 detector at the Tevatron
proton-antiproton collider have sought in vain for evidence of leptoquarks in
interactions at the highest energy available at any accelerator, 1.8 TeV. If
they had existed within an accessible mass range, leptoquarks would have been
produced in pairs; each would have decayed into an electron and a quark. From
the data, the Tevatron scientists estimate a lower limit on the leptoquark
mass of 133 GeV. As if to illustrate the massiveness of the undertaking of
finding a new class of fundamental particles, the published paper bears the
names of 351 authors. [From: Physical Review Letters, 14 February 1994.

#2. A SCANNING MAGNETIC FLUX MICROSCOPE, a device that can map magnetic fields
with a spatial resolution of about 80 microns and a field sensitivity of 7
pico-Tesla-Hz**-1/2, has been developed by a Maryland-Berkeley collaboration
(contact Frederick Wellstood, 301-405-7649). The detector uses a 77-K
superconducting quantum interference device to sense tiny magnetic fields from
a sample which moves back and forth beneath the SQUID in 1-micron steps. For
practice, the scientists made a picture of the face of George Washington as it
appears on the one-dollar bill. The accurate likeness is composed of the
measurements of the enhanced fields in the vicinity of the tiny droplets of
magnetic ink used on all greenbacks. The scientific uses of the magnetic
microscope include prospecting for the characteristic fields emanating from
microscopic nuggets of superconductor buried inside otherwise
non-superconducting samples. The microscope can also be used to image
poorly-magnetic materials such as thin copper patterns on printed circuit
boards by measuring the faint magnetic fields that arise from eddy currents
induced in the copper. [From: Applied Physics Letters, 3 January 1994.

#3. MYSTERIOUS ATMOSPHERIC RADIO BURSTS have been measured by the ALEXIS
satellite, which patrols the sky for evidence of nuclear detonations. The
radio bursts are much stronger than those associated with lightning bolts and
only seem to occur over Africa and South America. The best explanation given
so far is that the radio signals may be linked with equally mysterious light
flashes seen above certain thunderstorms. [From: Science News, 12 February
1994. Forwarded by: <pfs2@aip.org>]

#4. THE GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) can determine latitude and longitude
for any spot on Earth with an uncertainty of only 10 meters; the distance
between two points hundreds of km apart can be determined to within 1 cm. GPS
does this by relaying timing signals from a network of satellites, each
carrying an atomic clock, to a receiver (sometimes a hand-held device) which
calculates the position from the relative time delay of the signals. In an
essay in the January 1994 Physics Today, MIT physicist Daniel Kleppner uses
GPS as a case study for demonstrating why science is a good investment. He
recounts the slow, painstaking march of scientific and technological
advances--e.g., hydrogen-maser clocks, microelectronics, high-speed data
processing--that culminated in GPS. [Forwarded by: <pfs2@aip.org>]

#5. CALGENE'S PLANS TO SELL GENETICALLY ALTERED COTTON CROP ADVANCE
Calgene Inc. said it received approval from the U. S.
Department of Agriculture to sell a strain of cotton that has been genetically
engineered to resist damage from bromoxynil, a weed-killer opposed by
environmental groups.
It is the first approval of a major field crop under a 1993 USDA rule
regulating genetically engineered products, though the agency previously
approved a Calgene tomato produced using similar techniques. (The acreage
used for tomatoes is relatively small.) The company is awaiting Food and Drug
Administration approval of a gene used in both crops before beginning
high-volume shipments of its cotton, said John Callahan, Calgene's senior vice
president in charge of cotton.
Once that final hurdle is cleared, Calgene BXN cotton that has been
field-tested can be grown and shipped anywhere in the U.S. without special
approvals, just like conventional cotton, the company said.
The USDA decision is a milestone in a 10-year partnership of Calgene and
Rhone-Poulenc AG, the French company that sells bromoxynil under the trade
name Buctril. Calgene contends that the BXN cotton allows farmers to use
relatively small amounts of Buctril, which is a more efficient weed killer
than other herbicides used now.
Calgene estimates that its cotton, if used by all U.S. cotton growers, could
reduce their herbicide use by nine million pounds annually.
But environmental groups argue that Buctril can cause birth defects in farm
workers exposed to the herbicide, and are pushing instead for farmers to use
organic methods that use no chemicals. "Many people are finding that their
yields are better with organic cotton," said Rebecca Goldberg, a senior
scientist at the Environmental Defense Fund in Washington.
Dr. Goldberg said the Environmental Protection Agency must approve the use of
Buctril on cotton. "We are taking our case to EPA," she said.
Yesterday, Calgene stock jumped 75 cents, or 6.4%, to close at $12.50 a share
in Nasdaq Stock Market trading. [From: Wall Street Journal, 17 February 1994.

3. Chinese Ministry Adopts Novell's Tuxedo OLTP ............................48

Forwarded by: Yifa

PROVO, UTAH, U.S.A., 1994 FEB 11 (NB) -- When Novell acquired Unix Systems
Laboratories (USL), part of the deal included USL's Tuxedo on-line
transaction processing (OLTP) system. Now Novell says that the Peoples
Republic of China (PRC) Ministry of Electronic Industries, and Unix System
Technologies (UST) of China, have announced the adoption of Tuxedo as the
Ministry's OLTP system.
According to the company, the PRC will use the Tuxedo system for developing
client-server transaction applications for China's major commercial industries,
including agriculture, banking, communications, energy, government, and
insurance.
Unix Systems Technologies (UST)-China is a joint venture between Novell, the
Ministry of Electronic Industries, and DASCOM Holdings Ltd., a Hong Kong-based
software organization formed in November, 1992. UST claims to be a group of
independently operated firms providing localized expertise and support for
Unix-based technologies.
Said professor Jian Yao Ling, president of UST-China. "The presence of Tuxedo
in the PRC marketplace signifies a new phase in the scope and capabilities of
UST-China. UST, along with Novell's direct involvement, will be key to
promoting the broad use of Tuxedo-based applications in the PRC."
Tuxedo is a network service that provides mission-critical
transaction-processing capabilities in Novell's NetWare and UnixWare
network and computer operating system environments.
According to Novell, the Tuxedo system is a layer of software that "improves
performance, ensures data integrity and provides the essential transaction
processing and tracking services for business- critical networked
applications."
Additionally, Tuxedo is described as a suite of integrated software
development tools that facilitate the development of applications for
distributed computing environments, managing application transactions between
clients and servers, as well as large system resources such as corporate
databases. The product reportedly also simplifies the management and
integration of applications between diverse computer operating system
environments.
A Tuxedo partners and users conference is being held in Provo, Utah, this
week. The conference is intended to provide developers and OEMs with
information that will help them "more effectively use the Tuxedo system as
they build powerful, flexible and cost effective distributed
applications."

#2. Job title: Postdoctoral Position In Biology (France)
Post date: 02/14/1994
Forwarded by: (David Tepfer), <tepfer@versailles.inra.fr>
The subject is the role of plant secondary metabolites in interactions between
roots and their biotic environment. We will concentrate on a family of small
molecules called calystegins, which are nutritional mediators of
plant/bacterial associations [Tepfer et al. (1988), J. Bacteriol. 170, 1153-
1161; Goldmann et al. (1990), Phytochemistry 29, 2125-2127]. Calystegins
provide an exclusive carbon and nitrogen source to soil bacteria that can
catabolize them, and they are potent glycosidase inhibitors [Molyneux et al.
(1993), Arch Biochem Biophys 304, 81-88]. Research will involve plant genetic
engineering, microbial ecology and genetics and collaborations with chemists.
Applicants with experience in molecular biology are preferred. Salary: 10,000
to 13,000 FF per month; one year contract, renewable for a second year. Send
C.V. and names of 3 referees to D. Tepfer, I.N.R.A., 78026 Versailles Cedex,

Start: March 1994
Locattion: University of Georgia
The position will be assigned to a collaborative effort integrating molecular
genetics to improve both genetic resources conservation and plant breeding of
selected grass species. The goals of the position are to identify, test, and
implement molecular strategies, techniques, and analyses needed to effectively
describe genomic and genetic variation. Direct applications of this effort
include the development of markers for: (1) measurement of genetic identity,
structure, and relatedness; and (4) map development and application.
The selected individual will conduct investigations of plant genome
organization for the assessment of genetic uniqueness and variation in the
grasses, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench (sorghum) and Paspalum vaginatum
Sw.(seashore paspalum). She/he will employ various approaches based on a
thorough understanding of latest DNA technologies including recent progress in
typing/fingerprinting, genome mapping (including PCR-based EST/STS
strategies), and molecular evolution. Research supported through automated
DNA sequencing/fragment analyis and DNA synthesis technologies will be
included.
Potential candidates must have training (Ph.D. degree) and experience in
current theories and techniques of molecular genetics. In addition,
experience and training with associated recombinant DNA technologies, e.g.
isolation of DNA and RNA, development of DNA libraries (genomic and cDNA),
isolation and characterization of probes (low- and high-copy number, mini- and
microsatellite), PCR, LCR, etc., is expected. Experience in employing
molecular techniques to problems of population genetics is desirable.
